When Wang Hui saw the comments, he explained, "It's definitely not a film set. Yu Yan and I walked around the area for a long time, but we didn't see anyone else or any cameras or anything."

[I compared Yun Shu's photos, and they really look alike. That woman just now was Yun Shu!]

The man next to her must be her boss, Lu Shijing of Jingchuan Entertainment, and also the heir to the Lu Group in the capital!

[Holy crap, that guy is the heir to the Lu family? That's the son of the richest man! His family must have plenty of antiques; there's no need for them to rob tombs.]

Someone recognized Yun Shu's identity and posted relevant screenshots online, which led Yun Shu's fans to come to Wang Hui's live stream to watch the excitement.

After confirmation and comparison by netizens, they discovered that the two people were indeed Yun Shu and Lu Shijing.

Wang Hui was originally a relatively unknown streamer, but suddenly a large number of people flooded into his live stream, causing it to surge onto the trending list.

He looked at the screen full of comments in surprise, only to find that they were all discussing Yun Shu and Lu Shijing.

Yun Shu said she came to help Lu Shijing find something. Could it be that the Lu family lost some antiques?

The Lu family's assets are worth hundreds of billions. The antiques they lost must be incredibly valuable, at least in the hundreds of millions, right?

[Where did they go? I'm also curious what Lu Shijing lost that made the heir of the Lu family come looking for him personally.]

Wang Hui didn't know Yun Shu at all, and he didn't watch talent shows. But when he saw the comments mentioning Yun Shu and Lu Shijing, he asked Che Yuyan to search for them online.

"Brother Wang, look at this."

Che Yuyan showed him the search results, "Yun Shu has so many more fans, almost ten million, which is several times more than us."

"No wonder there are so many more people in the live stream."

Wang Hui was truly shocked.

He's been streaming for so long, but because his category is relatively niche, he's never been on the trending list before. Yet today, he's been consistently in the top ten of the trending list.

Che Yuyan also looked up Lu Shijing's information. "And that Lu Shijing, he's the heir to the Lu family business. Could what they said be true? Are they here to find the stolen antiques?"

Wang Hui frowned. "Have you forgotten what that woman said about who stole it? She said a ghost stole Lu Shijing's antique. Do you believe that?"

"Yeah, that's really too far-fetched."

Wang Hui glanced at his live stream and said, "We can't believe everything they say. Let's just keep waiting here, lest we lose these things."

[Brother Wang is truly righteous; those two were acting strangely and were definitely not reliable.]

Even if he's a celebrity, so what? Maybe that Lu Shijing guy's family made their fortune through tomb raiding.

Although many of Yun Shu's fans watched the live stream, Wang Hui's words were very misleading. Some of his fans, unaware of Yun Shu's character, were misled by him.

Fortunately, Yun Shu has a lot of fans, and as soon as someone questioned Yun Shu, some netizens spoke up for her.

[How are they unreliable? Go and learn about Yun Shu's character first, okay? She's known as the "Internet King of Hell"! Seeing a ghost is nothing new!]

[Exactly, ghosts stealing things isn't unusual for Yun Shu; you guys are just ignorant.]

[Lu Shijing is worth billions, why would he care about such a small thing? The two of you insist on staying here and even try to smear them, making your motives even more suspicious!]

Wang Hui didn't expect that after Yun Shu's fans arrived, his words would instead be met with insults from them.

He frowned and said, "Can some people's fans stop being so brainless? I do live streams to break down feudal superstitions, but you guys have all been brainwashed by that Yun Shu. It's bizarre that people actually believe what she says."

[You just got lucky not to have encountered it. I didn't believe it before either, until Yunshu helped many people.]

It's not that we blindly believe her, but what you said is also problematic. You started by calling Yun Shu and Lu Shijing tomb raiders.

[Exactly! You misled your fans and slandered our Yun Shu! There are even people who dare to say the Lu family started out as tomb raiders, it's hilarious. If the Lu family were really that rich, and Lu Shijing were a tomb raider, they would have been investigated long ago!]

Wang Hui found a corner in the tomb chamber and sat down to continue arguing with these netizens.

But he tossed the backpack to Che Yuyan and gave her a wink.

The two had been partners for a long time, and Che Yuyan could tell what he meant just by looking into his eyes.

Out of sight of the camera, Che Yuyan quietly picked up some things from the ground and filled their hiking backpacks.

But there were so many antique jewels scattered on the floor of the tomb that they couldn't fit in two bags, and there were still quite a few left.

At this time.

Just then, a commotion was heard outside, and the police arrived and found the entrance to the tomb.

When Wang Hui saw the police enter the tomb, he told the viewers in the live stream, "The police are here, and I need to tell them what's going on here. I can't just take pictures of the police with my phone and post them online, so I'll end the broadcast now and tell you about the situation next time I'm on the live stream."

[Okay, as expected of our Brother Wang, he's so well-mannered. Unlike some people's fans, who just attack anyone they can find.]

[Good luck, Brother Wang! I hope these burial items can be safely handed over to the police and don't fall into the wrong hands!]

Wang Hui turned off the live stream, went to Che Yuyan's place to ask about the situation, and then brought her the bag.

The tomb was very dark, and the police couldn't see anything when they came in. They only saw the two of them when they turned on their flashlights.

Wang Hui sensed the light coming from them and quickly went over, saying, "Officers, you've finally arrived! My companion called the police earlier. We were exploring outdoors when we accidentally discovered that this tomb had been opened, and two tomb raiders were trying to take things from here."

The policeman looked him over and asked, "Where are the two tomb raiders?"

“They heard us calling the police, so they left through that passage.”

Wang Hui pointed to the secret passage where Yun Shu and the others had left, and the police officer in charge sent someone over to investigate.

Wang Hui's voice came again, "We were worried they had accomplices who would steal things from here, so we called the police and waited here. You arrived just in time, so we can leave with peace of mind now."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Che Yuyan, gesturing for her to leave with him.

"Wait a minute."

But as soon as they reached the side of the passage, they were stopped by the police with their men.

The police pointed to the two bulging bags behind Wang Hui and Che Yuyan, "Take your bags off and take out the contents so we can check them."

Wang Hui paused slightly, "But this bag contains our exploration equipment, which are our personal belongings."

The police said, "Regardless of whether they are personal belongings or not, since you are here, everything you have on you will be checked. You also said that there are many burial objects in this tomb. If you try to take them out secretly, you will be breaking the law."

Wang Hui hadn't expected the police to be so cautious, and he immediately regretted leaving so late; they should have left before the police arrived!

These police officers had been handling cases for many years, and just by looking at the expression on Wang Hui's face, they knew he had a problem, so they were even less likely to let him go easily.

After much negotiation, Wang Hui finally had no choice but to take everything out of his bag.

When the police saw the contents of the bag, their gazes sharpened considerably. "Didn't you say the bag contained only your personal belongings? Why are there antiques and jewelry inside?"

Wang Hui's expression froze.

His mind raced, and he finally remembered what Yun Shu had said: "These are not all the burial items of the tomb's owner. Some of them were stolen and hidden here by thieves. The items in my bag are the antiques and jewelry that were stolen from my family. I only took mine."

The police officer clearly didn't believe him and retorted, "Then why didn't you say so earlier?"

Wang Hui looked aggrieved. "I was afraid that if I said it earlier, you would misunderstand me as a tomb raider. See, now you've misunderstood me, haven't you?"

The police officer in charge immediately ordered the others, "Take them both back to the station and detain them."

Wang Hui: "..."

Che Yuyan: "..."

The two never expected this outcome, and in the end, they could only follow the police with frustrated expressions.

Meanwhile, Yun Shu and Lu Shijing continued their pursuit along the secret passage. The passage was very long, and it took them a long time to reach its end.

The two crawled out of the secret passage and found that the surrounding area was full of half-built, unfinished houses. Yun Shu also found the surrounding atmosphere very familiar.

She looked into the distance and saw that the magnetic field was chaotic and filled with yin energy, causing the vegetation to grow listlessly.

Yun Shu said to Lu Shijing, "This looks like that abandoned business district across from the barren mountain."

"This is it," Lu Shijing recognized it too. "But where's that old woman?"

Yun Shu was also looking for the Green-Eating Ghost, but she couldn't find it after scanning the surrounding area.

"Yunshu, look over there."

Lu Shijing's voice suddenly came.

He strode towards the concrete wall with exposed steel bars not far away.

Yun Shu looked in the direction he was looking and saw a small patch of blue floral fabric peeking out from the ground on the other side of the cement wall. It was the same fabric as the old woman's floral-patterned jacket for older women!
