Dawn was breaking.
Inside a courtyard near Panjia Yuan.
The distinctive voice of the neighbor's elder sister announced, "Fatty, your relative is here again!"
Relative?
Besides Hu Ba Yi, who else could he have as a relative?
And this person knew where he lived.
Hearing this, Wang Kai Xuan abruptly jolted awake from his bed. Could it be that Da Jin Ya, that rascal, had gone back and gotten angrier, and was coming back to cause trouble?
Only Da Jin Ya knew he lived here.
"Lao Hu!"
Wang Kai Xuan woke Hu Ba Yi up.
"What's wrong, Fatty? It's still early for the train to leave!"
But when they opened the curtains, it was Lin Chang Sheng from the Lin's Paper Lantern Shop.
"Xiao Sheng Ye?"
"What is he doing here?" Wang Kai Xuan was curious.
Hu Ba Yi opened the door, "Let's go ask him. We'll know then!"
Wang Kai Xuan followed closely behind, walking outside, and looked at Lin Chang Sheng, who was standing in the courtyard, spotless and handsome.
"Xiao Sheng Ye, what brings you here?"
Lin Chang Sheng removed his sunglasses, "I'm going with you two. To make sure my items are genuine and worth the price!"
Um...
Hu Ba Yi and Wang Kai Xuan were somewhat taken aback. Did Lin Chang Sheng know about their plans?
Wang Kai Xuan whispered, "What do we do, Lao Hu? He's caught wind of it and wants to join us to get rich."
Hu Ba Yi smiled, "Let him come along. Let's see what he's up to. Just think of him as a bodyguard you're paying for!"
Wang Kai Xuan quickly responded, "Don't say that. That guy just lightly beat me up the other day, my arm still hasn't recovered, I can't use any strength, it's killing Fatty me!"
Hu Ba Yi gestured with a welcoming hand, "Xiao Sheng Ye, come in and talk!"
Wang Kai Xuan and Hu Ba Yi exchanged glances, unsure about Lin Chang Sheng's purpose in joining them.
However, from their recent interactions, Hu Ba Yi had a general understanding of Lin Chang Sheng. Despite his youth, he was a man of few words, capable and courageous.
Having him along wouldn't be bad.
After all, more people meant more strength.
Lin Chang Sheng's purpose was simple: to go to various ancient tombs to train, causing the attributes he carried to evolve.
As for the gold and silver treasures in the tombs, he wasn't that interested.
He was more interested in the evil spirits and mummies in the tombs.
He wanted to test the Lin's Twelve Scrolls of Spells passed down from his ancestors. Were they actually useful? How effective were they against evil spirits and mummies?
This was what he was most concerned about.
The lineage of Celestial Masters had fallen into decline. This was due to the rapid changes in the times. Times created heroes, heroes could not create times.
Lin Chang Sheng went straight to the point, "You two are probably planning to go tomb raiding. I want to join you. Do you agree?"
Hu Ba Yi and Wang Kai Xuan nodded. They had already discussed it beforehand.
Seeing Wang Kai Xuan continuously sizing him up with an experienced look, Lin Chang Sheng snorted coldly, "Fatty, what's the matter?"
"Don't worry about things that don't concern you."
Wang Kai Xuan said casually, "Xiao Sheng Ye, if you want to go into the tomb with us, we won't stop you. But if anything happens, we two brothers can't take care of you. And most importantly, how do we divide the treasure?"
As a money-grubbing person, Wang Kai Xuan was naturally most concerned about the division of treasure. After all, one more person meant one less share.
Although Lin Chang Sheng's martial arts skills surpassed his, it wasn't guaranteed. The last time, Fatty he wasn't prepared and was caught off guard by Lin Chang Sheng.
But tomb raiding was dangerous. He wasn't looking down on Lin Chang Sheng.
He was someone who had escaped death and returned from the tomb with his life.
Lin Chang Sheng's martial arts skills were good, but there were countless traps and mechanisms in the tomb, as well as poisonous insects and strange beasts.
Those who hadn't experienced it wouldn't understand the adrenaline-pumping tension and excitement.
And within that, one wrong step could lead to death.
Those who had gone tomb raiding before, some young men with high spirits and confidence in their abilities, weren't they all gone, unable to return from the tomb alive?
"I won't take any of the treasure. You just need to return the two thousand yuan you owe me!"
Wang Kai Xuan almost forgot about that. He still owed Lin Chang Sheng two thousand yuan. He had bought that yellow talisman for three thousand.
Thinking back, Fatty he really was out of his mind. He spent three thousand yuan to buy a talisman.
Little did he know, it was this talisman that saved his life later.
After the three of them came to an agreement, they would set off early the next morning.
Wang Kai Xuan had already made all the necessary preparations. He had sold all the things he needed to buy, returned his rent, sold his three-wheeled cart. The next time he came back, he would have to buy a new one, a more expensive one.
He also had to prepare the tools needed for tomb raiding.
The next day.
Lin Chang Sheng, carrying a luggage bag, met with the two. The Scattering People Tomb Raiding Alliance was officially formed.
Next stop: Niu Xin Mountain!
