Chapter 253: Being hated, fear spreads



"What are you doing? Why are you fighting among yourself?" Qin Ze frowned slightly.

Several people in front of me were grabbing each other's collars, looking like they were about to fight.

"What are you making such a fuss about? How disgraceful!" Old Mrs. Huo slammed her cane on the ground, making a "dong" sound.

Seeing this, everyone quieted down again. In the end, of course, each of them was given thirty lashes of the cane as a severe warning, and only then did those troublemakers behave themselves.

Qin Ze noticed that the mercenaries were among the troublemakers and sighed slightly.

[Alas, it seems these foreign mercenaries have quite a few tricks up their sleeves, and some are even unruly. I just hope they can just cause trouble and not hinder us.]

Hei Xia Zi shook his head slightly. Xiao Ze was still too young. It was obvious that they were not content with what they were supposed to do. They might be the ones causing troubles. What was most worrying was that they knew there was a trap but still chose to commit suicide.

Several people looked at each other and tacitly decided to divide the work and cooperate with each other. They should pay attention to the other guys. It would be fine if they fell into the pit, but they should not drag everyone into it.

On the third floor, there is a huge turtle, but the turtle looks a little weird, with a woman's face on its head.

It looks kind of creepy.

There is a round depression on the turtle's back, and there seems to be a ball inside.

Qin Ze walked closer and took a look. When he looked at the light ball, he got goosebumps all over his body.

Good job.

I saw that the ball was black, and it was covered with what seemed to be human faces.

"Brother, your ancestors' aesthetic taste is quite unique." As soon as Qin Ze said this, he immediately received a glare from Zhang Qiling.

He squeaked immediately.

It's definitely not that he is a coward, he just follows his heart.

Qin Ze thought righteously in his heart.

"We've reached the third floor, why are there no treasures?" A small discussion reached Zhang Qiling's ears. His expression was still cold, but his eyes were even colder.

They continued to search for the passage to the fourth floor, hoping that there were priceless treasures there. Otherwise, this trip would be a real loss for them, as they lost so many people and gained nothing.

The fourth floor is different from the first three floors. There are many compartments inside. When you open it, you can see a coffin in each compartment.

Someone wanted to turn on the switch, but Zhang Qiling stopped him.

"What are you doing?" The mercenaries glared at Zhang Qiling. They came here to make a fortune, and of course, to help the boss find what he wanted. But now the boss is gone, it doesn't matter whether they find the things or not.

Now Zhang Qiling stopped them from opening the coffin, just as if he was preventing them from getting rich. Cutting off someone's wealth is like killing their parents. The mercenaries raised their guns and threatened.

"You better get out of my way, or the gun in my hand won't have eyes!"

[What the hell, dare you touch my cub? ]

When Qin Ze saw this, he was shocked. Someone actually pointed a gun at Zhang Qiling. Zhang Qiling was Qin Ze's Achilles' heel.

Although Qin Ze knew that he had given Zhang Qiling many life-saving treasures and that Zhang Qiling would be fine even if he was shot ten times, he still knew it. When he saw this scene, Qin Ze's inner anger rose rapidly.

Wuxie and the others could see with their own eyes that the volcano above Qin Ze's head had erupted, accompanied by a roaring sound.

Qin Ze was very fast and arrived behind the mercenary in almost the blink of an eye. Although he was angry, he was sensible and did not choose to kill him directly.

Qin Ze raised the steel rod with tiny spikes in his hand and smashed it down. The next second, the mercenary who was still threatening Zhang Qiling with a gun fell straight to the ground with his eyes wide open.

The corner of Zhang Qiling's mouth twitched. He looked at the bloody steel rod in Qin Ze's hand, and then looked at the other party's head which had been opened. It can only be said that Qin Ze had some sense, but not much. If he hit the other party with this stick, the other party would be crippled if not killed.

Qin Ze's actions stunned everyone, but the remaining three mercenaries were surprisingly angry. However, their boss was sensible and knew that this was not their territory.

In addition, most of the people around him were on Qin Ze's side. No matter how dissatisfied he was, he had to apologize to Qin Ze and the others. After all, anyone with a discerning eye could see that it was the mercenary who pointed the gun at Zhang Qiling first, so it was understandable that Qin Ze reacted a bit violently.

Hei Xiazi snorted coldly: "It's really true that any cat or dog dares to lay a hand on a mute."

Being ridiculed to the point of being inconsolable, they had to swallow their anger and pretend nothing had happened. The three mercenaries were supporting their wounded and were extremely angry.

But I still have no place to vent my anger.

He couldn't help but feel angry again. Why did he point his gun at the Chinese man for no reason? He knew they were not easy to deal with, and he was the leader of the team.

Boss Jiao watched the farce in front of him end coldly and coughed a few times. He now felt like his lungs were burning and his breathing was a little difficult.

It should have been when he came in. Even though he was wearing a gas mask, he stayed there for too long and inevitably inhaled some strong alkaline powder. Now those things are corroding his internal organs.

Boss Jiao was feeling anxious. They hadn't even reached the fifth floor yet, and his health was already failing, let alone the possibility of obtaining the secret of immortality.

Although Zhang Qiling stopped them from opening the coffin and disturbed the peace of the Zhang family, by doing so, he was in effect cutting off someone's source of income, and inevitably made some people bear a grudge against him.

They continued to explore upwards. There was a small mezzanine above. It was not wide, but it was more than enough for their group to go up.

This place looks like a dark room, and one of the compartments is filled with blue and white porcelain and calligraphy and paintings. Although these things are good and precious, they can be sold for a lot of money outside, but they are a bit large and difficult to take out.

Everyone planned to explore the place first and come back to get it when they had time, but those people didn't know that this would be their burial place.

The crowd continued to wander around, trying to find a passage leading to higher floors of the ancient building, but to their disappointment, there seemed to be no passage leading up here, as if it was sealed.

As they stayed inside longer, the air around them became less and less flowing. Some people covered their chests and felt a slight difficulty breathing.

What's worse is that when they wanted to go back to the next floor, they found that the passage they came up through had been blocked at some point.

Moreover, it is impossible to open the passage with their manpower alone. If they use bombs, the whole building will collapse. Even if they get out, they will be dead.

In other words, if they cannot find another way to leave within a certain period of time, their final outcome will be suffocation to death here.

For a moment, fear spread among the crowd.
