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 … Continue reading Chapter 36 Exit

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 … Continue reading Chapter 35 Rhinoceros Horn Light
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 … Continue reading Chapter 34 People From the Bottom of the Sea
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 … Continue reading Chapter 33 Grave Robbing and Quantum Mechanics
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 … Continue reading Chapter 32 Fatty’s Enumeration Method
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 … Continue reading Chapter 31 Endless Loop
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 … Continue reading Chapter 30 Path of Shadows
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 … Continue reading Chapter 29 Expedition From Ten Years Ago
Chapter 28 Indescribable Coffin
This tomb chamber was nearly ten times the size of the other chamber we saw before, with four giant carved pillars standing in each corner and numerous things piled everywhere on the ground. When the cold firework was lit, we found that they were actually mounds of gold and silver dishes, precious stones, glazed ceramics, … Continue reading Chapter 28 Indescribable Coffin
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, … Continue reading Chapter 27 New Mark
