Chapter 383 Adventure
The playboy is very innocent -
"It's you?"
"Why can't it be me?" Looking at Shen Mo's surprised eyes, Jiang Qiushui said calmly.
Perhaps because of what happened that day, Jiang Qiushui became even more indifferent to Shen Mo. Seeing that Shen Mo was speechless, she left without stopping.
Gu Chen glanced at Shen Mo, then chased after his sister.
By the time Shen Mo reacted, Jiang Qiushui had already entered the camp.
Shen Mocai learned from Gu Chen that Jiang Qiushui's major was architecture, and she also had a degree in archeology. Because of the Gu family's affairs, she had been studying the construction of ancient tombs, so being a chief engineer was not a joke. It's not about the nature of voting, but it's about having real talent and practical knowledge.
The arrival of Jiang Qiushui finally made the staff here slowly recover from their panic. Although Gu Chen is also a direct descendant of the Gu family, that little brat... not many people really take him seriously.
But Jiang Qiushui is different. These staff members were all trained by the Gu family, so they all know Jiang Qiushui's status in the Gu family.
The first thing Jiang Qiushui did was to send the crazy chief engineer away, and then he would start work immediately after understanding the excavation situation of the ancient tomb in the shortest possible time.
They couldn't waste any more time, because no one knew whether something would happen in the ancient tomb.
After all the staff of the Fa Jue Ancient Tomb started working, Jiang Qiushui actually approached Shen Mo. Seeing that Shen Mo was chatting with Su Manying and Jin Yuner, her face sank slightly, and she paused and said, "I have something to talk to you about. "
Shen Mo was stunned for a moment, then greeted the two women and walked out of his tent.
"You shouldn't have brought them here." The two of them walked to a deserted place, Jiang Qiushui said to Shen Mo with a stern face.
Since Jiang Qiu Shui came, this was not the first time Shen Mo met her, but every time Jiang Qiu Shui deliberately tilted her head and pretended not to see him, which made Shen Mo feel very unhappy.
This time Jiang Qiushui took the initiative to find him, but unexpectedly accused him of bringing two "burdens" with him. Shen Mo was inevitably a little angry.
With a sneer, he said: "This is my freedom. I made an agreement with the old man at the beginning."
"You are harming them!" Jiang Qiu Shui raised his voice slightly and stared at Shen Mo coldly.
Shen Mo did not dodge: "I know, but I know even better that they would rather come."
Jiang Qiushui stopped talking. For a long time, she turned her gaze to the woods in front of her and took a long breath: "I found the reason why the chief engineer went crazy."
"Oh?" Shen Mo raised his eyebrows. He thought Jiang Qiushui was quarreling with him, but it turned out to be this: "What's the reason?"
"You should have noticed, right? He has a strong curse aura on his body," Jiang Qiushui said.
Shen Mo nodded: "It's indeed very strong, it's almost catching up with me."
Jiang Qiushui's expression dimmed slightly, and he continued: "After my investigation, I found that he was the only person who had entered the depths of the ancient tomb. There were two people who went into the depths of the ancient tomb to explore that day. The other one died in an accident, and he was the only one who survived. Come down."
"You mean... it's the strange power in the ancient tomb?" Shen Mo quickly understood what Jiang Qiushui meant and asked.
Jiang Qiushui nodded: "The possibility is very high. Our Gu family also has a method for detecting curses. I found that there is a strong curse in this ancient tomb."
"A very strong curse power." Shen Mo frowned: "That's really troublesome. If this is the case, wouldn't ordinary people be cursed and get into trouble once they go deep into it?"
Suddenly thinking of Jiang Qiu Shui's order to start work today, Shen Mo asked anxiously without waiting for Jiang Qiu Shui's answer: "Then those workers who start work will be cursed? Go and ask them to stop!"
Jiang Qiushui shook his head when he heard this: "The place where they started working is still some distance away from the range controlled by the cursed power. As long as they don't run around, there won't be any problems. I've asked Gu Chen to watch over there. They can't stop. , because the passage into the ancient tomb has not yet been found.”
"Do you have a plan now?" Shen Mo raised his head and stared at Jiang Qiu Shui. He felt that Jiang Qiu Shui came to him today to say more than just this.
Sure enough, Jiang Qiushui nodded: "It will be very slow if we dig slowly like this. I have a plan, but it is very dangerous."
"Let's talk about it first." Jiang Qiushui said it was dangerous. It might be quite dangerous, and Shen Mo didn't dare to agree immediately.
He is not afraid of death, he just doesn't want to die too easily.
If he died, wouldn't Su Manying and Jin Yuner be widows?
"Having obtained the power of the curse again, there are only three people who can enter the depths of the ancient tomb now." Jiang Qiushui said calmly: "You, me, and Gu Chen."
"Aren't you afraid of the power of the curse?" Shen Mo was a little surprised. He thought he was not afraid.
Jiang Qiu Shui smiled bitterly: "I am the carrier of the curse, so I don't need to be afraid of it, but Gu Chen... all the men in the Gu family are immune to the curse."
Only then did Shen Mo realize that he was envious of Gu Chen. This boy didn't have to be afraid of curses.
The reason why I am not afraid is because I already have a curse on me. To put it bluntly, it means that a dead pig is not afraid of being scalded by boiling water. But it is good for him that a living pig is not afraid of being scalded by boiling water.
Except for the three of them, no one else can lift the power of the curse, otherwise they will immediately become the same as the chief engineer before, or even think of the one who died in the ancient tomb and never came out.
"Be prepared. Our first phase of the mission is to wait until we find the entrance to the ancient tomb and then enter the ancient tomb to find a way to get rid of the power of the curse. Otherwise, we will never be able to unlock the magic secret deep in the ancient tomb. Only with our Three of them cannot enter the core of the ancient tomb." Jiang Qiushui said.
Shen Mo nodded and agreed. Since he is here, he must go all out, not only to help the Gu family, but also to help himself.
Jiang Qiushui is the chief engineer, so of course you have to listen to her.
After talking for a few more words, the two separated. However, before leaving, Jiang Qiushui said something that made Shen Mo stunned.
"Say hello to Su Manying for me."
Watching Jiang Qiu Shui leave, Shen Mo scratched his nose. He couldn't guess what Jiang Qiu Shui meant.
Afternoon? Not really, it seems like she hated him after he rejected her in front of Mr. Gu.
Being polite? She could just be polite in person, so why did she have to let herself pass on the message?
Shaking his head, Shen Mo couldn't understand and simply didn't think about her. A woman's heart was like a needle in the sea. It would be strange if he could understand a woman's thoughts.
I went back and told Su Manying and Jin Yun'er about Jiang Qiushui's arrangements. Both women expressed their concerns, but they did not say anything to stop them, nor did they insist on going along willfully.
They are already satisfied to be able to come with Shen Mo. The two women also know their abilities. If they follow Shen Mo, they will only become a burden and not help. Instead of doing that, it is better to wait here, which will not only make Shen Mo feel at ease. It also allows Shen Mo to have no worries in the ancient tomb.
After Su Manying heard Shen Modai and Jiang Qiushui's greetings, she didn't show anything strange, she just said that she would have a chance to talk to her in the future.
Speaking of which, the two women were somewhat different in age and had different personalities. Shen Mo didn't know what these two women could say together.
Of course, they can talk about themselves, but this is obviously not what Shen Mo wants.
Soon, under the command of Jiang Qiushui, everyone found a passage leading to the depths of the ancient tomb. This passage was at the other end of the ancient tomb, almost opposite to the place where they were digging on the carpet. This made all the staff feel confused. He admired Jiang Qiushui very much. Jiang Qiushui found the place easily, while the previous engineer couldn't even find the right direction.
Jiang Qiushui's level is obviously much higher than that of the unlucky guy who was possessed by the evil spirit.
At noon that day, after packing up, Shen Mo, Jiang Qiushui and Gu Chen followed the passage into the depths of the ancient tomb. They had to remove the power of the curse, otherwise the ancient tomb could not be mined.
This passage only leads to the periphery of the ancient tomb. If you want to enter the deepest part of the ancient tomb, you must follow the correct path, otherwise the mechanisms in the ancient tomb will use their power, and they will escape death.
Seeing Gu Chen's eager expression, Shen Mo sighed, does this kid have no courage or is he extremely courageous? He is actually excited at this time.
You must know that this ancient tomb arranged by your ancestors is not for future generations to break into casually. You may not be afraid of the power of the curse inside, but obviously, there is more than just a simple curse in this ancient tomb.
No one knew what was inside the ancient tomb, so Shen Mo took the lead, Gu Chen was in the middle, and Jiang Qiushui was behind to take precautions.
Slowly walking from the passage to the ancient tomb, Shen Mo encountered no danger along the way. Although the curse around him was getting stronger and stronger, it had no effect on the three of them.
On the way, the three of them saw the person who died first. Shen Mo found that he also had the power of the curse that had not been dissipated. It was obvious that he did die because of the power of the curse in the ancient tomb.
I didn't care about him for the time being. The three of them had to go into the ancient tomb. It would be too cumbersome to carry a dead person with them.
After passing through the long passage, Shen Mo and Jiang Qiu Shui Guchen walked into a hall. This should be the periphery of the ancient tomb, and it can be regarded as entering the real ancient tomb.
"This ancient tomb should have been built before the Han Dynasty. It is an underground palace tomb." Jiang Qiushui could tell at a glance.
Unexpectedly, the tomb of the first generation ancestor was actually built before the Han Dynasty. So when did he live?
The structure of Chinese tombs is different in every dynasty and every generation.
Before the Han Dynasty, underground palace tombs were the main ones, just like this one today. It is surrounded by internal corridors, just like an underground palace.
In the Tang Dynasty, there was a rise in digging mountains and building tombs, and the Song Dynasty, Yuan Dynasty, and Ming Dynasty also had their own characteristics.
Shen Mo knew nothing about this, but it didn't affect him. No one was a jack-of-all-trades. Shen Mo just had to do his job well. Since Jiang Qiu Shui was the chief engineer, he would completely listen to Jiang Qiu Shui's arrangements.
"Huh?"
Gu Chen suddenly let out an exclamation, looking towards a corner of the cave hall with a look of surprise on his face.
Shen Mo followed his gaze and saw a black shadow rushing forward at an alarming speed!
