Wu Yu Saves the World

Chapter 189: Grave Robbers' Chronicles Qi Yu 71

On a stormy night, Commander Zhang's plan quietly took shape.

He understood that only by letting Zhang Qingping and Zhang Gaoyuan witness the truth of the longevity technique with their own eyes could they completely give up their illusory pursuits and return to reality.

So he carefully planned a drama that would leave a lasting impression on them.

Zhang Qingping took advantage of the darkness of the night and the moment when Zhang Bushun was soundly asleep and quietly sneaked into his study.

With trepidation in her heart, she carefully flipped through the yellowed ancient books and scrolls, hoping to find clues about the art of immortality.

However, she didn't know that all this was within Commander Zhang's expectations.

Just as Zhang Qingping was concentrating on searching, Zhang Bushun suddenly woke up.

He walked up to Zhang Qingping and asked coldly, "Are you helping Zhang Gaoyuan find the secret of immortality?"

Zhang Qingping was frightened, but she quickly calmed down and spoke her true thoughts.

She told Zhang Bushun that she did not want to disobey her brother, but she could not give up her desire for the art of immortality.

Zhang Bushun sighed deeply. He knew that decisive action must be taken to make them give up completely.

So he decided to send Zhang Qingping back to the Marshal's Mansion and blow up the ancient tomb.

This news made Zhang Qingping lose control of her emotions. She shouted loudly: "If the tomb is destroyed, it will be the same as destroying my brother and me!"

She took out the gun from the drawer and threatened Zhang Bushun with suicide.

Faced with his wife's determination, Zhang Bushun had no choice but to compromise.

He turned on the switch on the stone wall and entered a dark tomb.

There, he pulled a mysterious object from a sarcophagus.

He told Zhang Qingping that this was the secret of immortality that she and Zhang Gaoyuan had been looking for.

However, when he crushed it with one hand, a foul smell instantly filled the entire tomb.

Zhang Bushun's body began to undergo terrible changes. His skin turned purple and his eyes became bloodshot, as if he had turned into a monster.

Zhang Qingping looked at everything in front of her in horror, and she cried and shouted that she would not let Zhang Bushun die.

She decided to go find her elder brother Zhang Gaoyuan to save him.

However, when she rushed back to the tomb with Zhang Gaoyuan, she saw the tragic scene of Zhang Bushun falling to the ground due to the poison.

Dou Cheng stopped Zhang Gaoyuan who was about to rush forward and told him loudly: "This is the immortality technique you are looking for!"

Afterwards, Dou Cheng activated the mechanism on the stone wall and slowly closed it.

He grabbed Zhang Gaoyuan and told him that this was Zhang Bushun's last wish.

He used his life to reveal a cruel truth.

The so-called art of immortality is nothing but an evil art that will only turn people into monsters and eventually die.

After the stone wall completely fell down, Zhang Gaoyuan burst into tears in front of it.

He could not accept this cruel fact, nor could he forgive his own stupidity and greed.

Dou Cheng walked silently to Zhang Bushun's body and wiped the blood from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief.

Then he picked up Zhang Bushun's body and placed it in the sarcophagus, tidied his clothes and closed the coffin lid.

After completing all this, Dou Cheng stroked the coffin lid and cried.

He knew that he was also responsible for this tragic ending.

So he went back to his desk, picked up a pen, wrote his last diary, and put it in the drawer.

Then he put on his military cap, put the gun to his forehead and ended his life.

Suddenly, Wu looked at Hei Xia Zi in confusion and asked, "Uncle Qi, how do you know all this? We don't seem to have told you anything."

Hei Xiazi smiled slightly, revealing his signature cunning expression. He looked up at the ceiling and whispered two words: "Secret."

Fatty Wang listened at the side, touched his head, and thought that this black bear was really mysterious.

He suddenly remembered that he was knocked unconscious, so he asked, "Hei Xiazi, do you know who knocked me unconscious? Do you have any clues?"

Hei Xia Zi shook his head, frowned slightly, and said: "I only know that the people who attacked you are the same group of people who attacked Xie Yuchen. However, they have been killed by Pan Zi."

When Wu Xie heard this, he opened his mouth in surprise.

"Pan Zi is here? Is Third Uncle here too?"

He was excited and hoped to see his long-lost uncle this time.

However, Hei Xia Zi chose to remain silent again and did not answer Wu Xie's question.

Seeing this, everyone knew that asking further would get no results, so they decided to work together to open the mysterious coffin.

The coffin lid was slowly pushed open, and an eerie breath blew in.

When they looked closely, they saw that the person lying inside was the mute general in the video that they had seen with Zhang Qiling before.

However, to their disappointment, no trace of the snake-browed bronze fish was found in the coffin.

Fatty Wang was groping the mute general unwillingly, when suddenly his fingers touched a hard object.

He carefully took off a jade pendant, but unexpectedly this action triggered a mechanism.

The mute general suddenly moved, and a dazzling green light emanated from his body, as if he had been resurrected.

Fatty Wang screamed in fear and tried to run away, but was knocked to the ground by Hei Xia Zi.

At the same time, the mute general brandished his long sword and launched a fierce attack on everyone.

Xie Yuchen and others quickly took out their guns and shot wildly at the mute general.

However, their bullets seemed to do no harm to the mute general.

The mute general brandished his long sword, severely injuring Xie Yuchen's men one by one.

Seeing this, Xie Yuchen angrily picked up a machine gun and fired wildly at the mute general.

Seeing this, Qi Yu hurried forward, grabbed Xie Yuchen, and shouted loudly.

"Xie Yuchen, don't be impulsive! We must put the jade pendant back on the dumb general before we can shut down the mechanism!"

Xie Yuchen calmed down after hearing Qi Yu's words.

Immediately, everyone got into a "tough battle", and Wu Xie returned to the tomb chamber to find the jade pendant for the switch. Unexpectedly, he met Wu Sanxing who was holding the jade pendant for the switch.

Wu Xie stood in the dim tomb, the doubts in his heart piled up like the shadows in the tomb.

He asked Wu Sansheng many questions in succession, hoping to get answers from him, but Wu Sansheng remained silent, as if he had something to hide.

He looked at Wu Xie deeply, then took out a jade pendant from his arms, handed it to Wu Xie, and spoke in an anxious tone.

"Hurry, go quickly, or your friend will really die."

Wu Xie held the jade pendant, feeling its cold and hard texture, and an ominous premonition welled up in his heart.

He looked up and saw the huge figure of the Mute General standing in the center of the tomb like a mountain. Its power was too strong and everyone was defeated and unable to contend with it.

Seeing this, Zhai Xingyao hurriedly launched a drone attack, trying to kill the mute general.

However, the explosives carried by the drone only blew off the mute general's helmet, causing no substantial harm to him.

Wu Xie's heart tightened when he saw this. He knew that if no action was taken, everyone's life would be in danger.

At this moment, Wu Xie quickly ran to Xie Yuchen and handed him the jade pendant.

Xie Yuchen took the jade pendant, jumped up, and accurately placed it back on the mute general's chest.

With the jade pendant returned to its place, the mechanism in the tomb was finally closed and the mute general stopped attacking.

It waved its arms and released a large amount of energy into the sky. The energy bloomed like brilliant fireworks, illuminating the entire tomb.

Wu Xie breathed a sigh of relief and followed everyone back along the original route.

However, when they returned to the entrance, they found that the door had been closed and the bodies in the tomb had disappeared.

Wu Xie's heart was filled with confusion and anxiety; he had no idea what was going on.

At this time, outside the tomb, Wu Sanxing got out of a car, and the Wang family stretched out their hands and said to him, "Happy cooperation."

But Wu Sanxing seemed not to hear them and walked straight past them without paying any attention.
