Duan Jinyan's attitude and Jiang Man's appearance completely disrupted my plans and rhythm.

I never expected Duan Jinyan to be so cold, nor did I expect Jiang Man to be so scheming, turning the tables on me.

At this moment, Jiang Man had trapped Duan Jinyan and me in the tomb chamber, and was naturally the one who was fearless: "Duan Jinyan, you are a legendary figure in the martial arts world. If you were to die in a foreign land like this, I'm afraid you wouldn't feel at ease, right? Although my way of contacting you is presumptuous, I have no ill intentions! I need you to help me find a tomb, and you can name your terms!"

"You should know that I'm not used to being ordered around."

Duan Jinyan snorted coldly: "Do you really think you can get the result you want through this method?"

“I don’t care, I’m just doing this for someone. The person who asked me to come said that only you, Duan Jinyan, can open that tomb. If they can’t take you away, they’ll just kill you to save you from working for someone else.”

Jiang Man ignored Duan Jinyan's threat: "Mr. Duan, I have shown you two paths. I wonder which one you intend to choose?"

Duan Jinyan didn't mince words: "I can leave, but you have to promise not to hurt the people around me. These are my core team. Without them, I can't do the work!"

Jiang Man agreed without hesitation: "Okay, as long as you choose to come with me, I guarantee that no one here will be harmed! But you have to get out of here alone first!"

Duan Jinyan thought for a moment and said, "I agree!"

When I heard Duan Jinyan's answer, I said to Song Laosan, "If Duan Jinyan comes out alone, grab him!"

Old Song warned, "If you want to save her, I advise you to think twice! That woman has blocked the doorway. There's no point in detaining her; in fact, we'll be attacked from both sides!"

"You're overthinking it. I just wanted to ask Duan Jinyan some questions in person! Duan Jinyan doesn't even care about our father-son relationship anymore, I'm not that shameless!"

I paused for a moment: "Although the woman outside is of unknown origin, it's obvious that she wants Duan Jinyan to work for her. She won't touch his people because she's afraid of him, but we can't guarantee that! If we catch Duan Jinyan, not only will I have questions to ask him, but he can also be our protector!"

Song Laosan nodded: "I'll listen to you."

We made a decision and waited for about a minute, but Duan Jinyan didn't come out from inside.

Jiang Man, who was outside the tomb, couldn't wait any longer and urged loudly, "Mr. Duan, I have shown enough sincerity. You had better cooperate. If things really fall apart, it won't look good for anyone!"

Duan Jinyan's voice drifted out: "I'm not feeling well, I need to use the restroom inside."

Hearing this overly obvious excuse, Song Laosan asked me, "What kind of trick do you think Duan Jinyan is up to? Could there be some secret passage in the back of the tomb?"

I shook my head: "Impossible! The main burial chamber is behind it. There can't be any other passage besides the main entrance. Besides, they said that the door was made of molten iron and can't be opened in a short time. And this tomb is on an island. There's no way they can escape."

Although Jiang Man could tell that Duan Jinyan's words were an excuse, she probably thought the same as me: "I've said what I needed to say. I hope you won't test my patience. I'll give you one minute. Start the timer now!"

Hearing this, the monkey blinked, a little confused: "From what I'm hearing, is this woman planning to force her way in? If they start fighting in this room, we'll be in big trouble, won't we? Young Master Duan, if they really start fighting, whose side are we on?"

"Stand on your side!"

I started to get nervous too. Although I didn't know what equipment Duan Jinyan and his team were using, I had seen Jiang Man's submachine guns before.

Even if I know nothing about firearms, I can tell that if a gunfight breaks out here, our hunting rifles will definitely be at a disadvantage.

"Ding-dong!"

Just as I was thinking of a solution, I suddenly heard a strange noise, and then I saw something fall not far in front of us.

"Holy crap! A grenade!"

Upon seeing the object on the ground, Song Laosan exclaimed in surprise and ran away.

"boom!"

As I was about to get up, I heard a deafening roar, accompanied by a flash of bright light in the room.

Shock bomb!

I've never encountered this before; I've only seen it in shooting games. Besides the white vision, there's also a buzzing sound coming from the headphones.

Video games are extremely harmful!

When the stun grenade actually hit me, I realized that the sound was like a thunderclap right next to my ear. It made my eardrums feel like they were perforated, and I instantly lost my balance and fell to the ground. My eyes hurt as if they had been gouged out.

The 170-decibel noise completely stunned me. My mind went blank, and I felt like I wasn't lying on the ground, but rather on a roller coaster, swaying and constantly feeling like I was falling from a great height.

Caught off guard by the attack, my mind went blank, and my body went out of control. I don't know how much time passed before my vision returned somewhat, but my ears were still ringing. My vision was like a movie slideshow; one moment the person I saw was at the door, and the next moment they were right next to me.

I vaguely saw a burly man throw a grenade through the hole into the tomb chamber, then duck to the side, while someone else rushed towards me.

But just as that person was about to rush to my side, he was suddenly pulled away by my teammates.

At this moment, I regained some sensation in my body. When I reached out and pressed my hand on the ground, it felt like pressing on cotton; it was slippery and greasy to the touch.

wrong!

The biting cold quickly made me realize one thing: this was water!

In other words, the reason Duan Jinyan delayed was because he had blown up the tomb.

This madman actually blew up the underwater tomb chamber, causing the underground river to flood in, choosing to escape in this way!

As soon as the thought flashed through my mind, my body was swept away by the rushing river water.

The immense pressure made me exhale, thankfully I had a gas mask, so no water got into my throat.

My ears were still ringing and I couldn't hear anything. Being enveloped by the water made the pain even more unbearable.

To avoid being swept away by the water, I clung tightly to the pillar beside me, and in a daze, I could see what the inside of the tomb looked like.

Just as Duan Jinyan and the others had said before, there were several identical stone coffins in the tomb chamber, which had collapsed under the impact of the water flow, and the mercury inside was spilling out and flowing freely.

The real coffin was also washed away, and Hu Shahu's body, dressed in a dragon robe, was found to be intact. The bodies of his wife and his wife were quickly swept away by the water, and the treasures inside were scattered all over the ground.

In a daze, I saw a piece of jade the size of a child's head fall into the water. I instantly realized that this was probably the jade seal that Duan Jinyan was looking for. On a whim, I swam through the hole in the wall and put the jade seal in my backpack.

"Bang!"

Just as I succeeded, a coffin lid that had been lifted by the water slammed into me, pinning me against the wall.

Because the hole next to me was the drain outlet, the coffin lid was pressed tightly against me under pressure, and I couldn't push it off no matter how hard I tried.

Just when I thought I was about to drown, a figure wielding a knife suddenly swam towards me. I stared at the middle-aged man with a full beard in front of me and froze.
