Chapter 36 Exit

I felt my blood run cold. We all stood there stunned for a moment, but then Pan Zi reflexively reached for his gun, and Fatty took the rhinoceros horn and slowly lifted it up. The ceiling was very high, so the light from our lanterns and smokeless stove couldn’t reach that far. If it weren't …

Chapter 35 Rhinoceros Horn Light

When I thought about it later, I realized that I mouthed these words in such a serious manner instead of saying them aloud because I was afraid that the ghosts would hear. This made it all too obvious that my nerves had been pushed to their limit. After all, if it had been an ordinary …

Chapter 34 People From the Bottom of the Sea

I still had internal injuries from my fall before, so when I saw this photo, I was so shocked that I spat out a mouthful of blood. Everyone was startled by my strange reaction—even though they had heard me mention it before, they had never actually seen the photo for themselves, so it was only …

Chapter 33 Grave Robbing and Quantum Mechanics

We went back into the tomb chamber and sat down, the atmosphere completely different from how it was before. Everyone’s faces were a mix between white and green, and nobody spoke. At that time, seeing the golden light reflecting off of the smokeless stove’s flames actually started to make me feel very nauseated. No one …

Chapter 32 Fatty’s Enumeration Method

We were all surprised when Fatty suddenly said that he had figured it out, but then we prepared ourselves to hear him spout a bunch of nonsense. By this point, we were basically used to his unreliability, so instead of arguing with him every time, it was better to let him get it out of …

Chapter 31 Endless Loop

Everyone’s faces turned pale and we all looked around, but the more we looked, the more certain we became—those were our footprints all over the ground. This was indeed the tomb chamber where we found Shunzi's father before. But it was strange—how did we come back? The tomb passage was a straight shot, and we …

Chapter 30 Path of Shadows

Shunzi and Pan Zi were completely dumbfounded by what they saw, and Pan Zi muttered, “Fuck, what's going on? Did we go through the wrong door?” “No!” Fatty and I both had experience with this kind of thing, so we knew right away what had happened, “The tomb passage has shifted. When we were in …

Chapter 29 Expedition From Ten Years Ago

Shunzi didn't end up crying, but after that brief moment of shock, he calmed down and started to fix his father's hair. But even though he was very careful, the corpse was so badly dehydrated that its hair fell out as soon as he touched it. After fixing it as best he could, his father …

Chapter 27 New Mark

I couldn’t remember what the mark in the undersea tomb looked like, but I still remembered those two marks that had been carved at the bottom of the moat and by the entrance to the tunnel. Looking more closely at the mark here, I found that it was completely different from the others. Pan Zi, …

Chapter 26 Mark

I crouched down, once again trying to identify these strange symbols in a foreign language, but it was useless—the lines were too messy. Although I could see that it was the same mark as the one we saw at the square entrance just now, it was impossible to tell which letters had been used. I …
