【Grave Robbers' Chronicles】The Smoke and the Return of the Soul

Although she was afraid, Lady Jin still asked Nan Yan, "Miss, what is going on? How come they...how did they become so insane and crazy?"

Nan Yan explained casually: "You all think it's just a pagoda and don't pay much attention to it. In fact, there is a sophisticated device sealed inside. It can absorb the surrounding heat and then release it to the top of the pagoda through special heat transfer."

"This tomb chamber uses a natural cave. The top of the cave is dark and buried deep underground, so it is very cold. The heat collides with the cold air at the top of the cave, and through the temperature difference, the water vapor in the air condenses into water droplets on the top of the cave."

"But the ceiling of the cave must have been painted with something that drives people crazy, so blood rain fell down and those who were drenched would become insane."

After saying that, Nan Yan left. She remembered that Xiaohua was not far away.

After Jin Niangzi and Fang Shi digested these long words, they followed, leaving behind only the two dying people.

There is a stone door behind the pagoda, but Xie Yuchen and Fan Chao couldn't open it, so they leaned against it. Because of the injury, they are still in a coma.

When Nan Yan saw this, she hurried forward and secretly transferred some spiritual energy to them under the pretext of checking their injuries.

"What's going on? Why are there so many bite marks and scratches?" Lady Jin said in surprise while treating the wounds nearby.

"Cough... cough... water, water." At this time, Xie Yuchen woke up with the help of the spiritual energy transmitted by Nan Yan, and asked for water in a daze.

Nan Yan quickly opened the kettle and fed Li Yuchen a few sips of water.

"Nan Yan? Behind!" Xie Yuchen suddenly seemed to see something and his eyes widened.

Nan Yan had actually already known the noise behind him. He turned around, pulled out the short knife from his waist, quickly stood up and swung the knife. In the blink of an eye, there was a corpse on the ground.

Nan Yan squatted beside the corpse, looked at it with a knife, and said, "It looked like a monkey. It must have been raised with blood and flesh since it was young, and it has undergone some mutations."

Suddenly the corpse's claws waved up, and Nan Yan cut off the claws with a knife.

Xie Yuchen suppressed his physical weakness, supported by the stone door behind him and stood up. He looked at Nan Yan deeply, but did nothing. He just asked Fang Shi about Fan Chao's injury.

"It's a bit serious. There are bite marks and scratches all over his body, some of which are even filled with pus. There is also some rotten flesh on the wounds, which is wrapped in new flesh. His body temperature is also high, and he has been sweating coldly. It should be something on the claws that caused the wound to become infected." Fang Shi said as he turned over Fan Chao's body.

"What do we need to do?" Xie Yuchen asked.

"Either get out quickly or have the surgery here. But it's better to go out. Hospitals outside have more equipment and protective measures. If you need a blood transfusion, it can be done, and cross infection can be avoided." Fang Shi answered seriously.

"Okay then, Fang Shi, you carry Fan Chao on your back, and Jin Niangzi, you hold on a little. Xiao Huaer, can you walk by yourself?" Nan Yan made arrangements quickly.

"Yes, but it will take time to break open this stone door." Xie Yuchen moved his body and said while looking at the stone door.

"I'll do it." Nan Yan walked forward and placed her hand on the stone door, feeling the structure of the mechanism inside the stone door. She quickly found the mechanism and opened it, then led everyone into the door.

Relying on their memories, Nan Yan and others successfully entered the main tomb chamber. But unexpectedly, this was not the tomb of a vassal king.

According to the epitaph, this was actually the wet nurse of a prince in the Ming Dynasty. The prince valued friendship so much that he spent so much money, material resources and manpower to build this entire tomb for his wet nurse.

Nan Yan suddenly heard a noise coming from far away, as if something was approaching them. Nan Yan looked carefully and found that it was the same kind of monkeys as before, but now there was a group of them.

"Something is coming." Nan Yan drew his weapon and said immediately.

"What is it?" Lady Jin drew her knife, protected Fang Shi and Fan Chao behind her, and asked nervously.

"It's the mutant monkey that Nan Yan killed before." Xie Yuchen keenly felt a fishy smell in the air, just like the mutant monkey he encountered.
