The man in the lead had a fierce look on his face with bulging muscles and roared angrily, "How dare you come to our village to rob tombs! Are you tired of living?!"
"Don't waste words with him. Beat him to death!"
"Damn it, beat him to death!"
The crowd was in an uproar.
More people kept glancing at the tomb behind Chen Qing, their eyes burning with eagerness.
At present, Chen Qing was just an ordinary person and probably couldn't beat even one of these burly men.
His mind raced, and then he generously stepped aside, revealing the entrance of the hole.
The gloomy ghostly energy spread out, and goosebumps rose on everyone's skin even in broad daylight.
"I'm from the Ghost-Controlling Army in the city,"
"We've discovered a lot of evil spirits here. If you want to live, leave quickly!"
"Yo!"
Fear flashed across the faces of several people.
Ghosts?
In the past, these were just things used to scare children, but now they really existed!
"Who are you trying to scare in broad daylight! The Ghost-Controlling Army? What a joke!"
One of them sneered, "I was outside the city when the Ghost Tide started. I've lived for decades and have seen quite a few ghosts, but they haven't even touched a hair on my head!"
"Yeah, yeah, you're still wet behind the ears and pretending to be from the Ghost-Controlling Army here."
"It's broad daylight. Even if there are ghosts, what can they do?"
"You're just a tomb robber! Move aside quickly!"
"The things inside belong to our village!"
Chen Qing frowned tightly:
"It's already been emptied inside! And, if you go in, you'll die!"
"Cut it out!" A girl who looked like a middle school student had been using her mobile phone to film Chen Qing. At this moment, she just sneered, "You were pretending to be from the Ghost-Controlling Army just now, and now you're pretending to be kind?"
"How ridiculous. What are you guarding here for? Are you guarding the door for the ghosts?!"
The aunt who had been digging wild vegetables before said angrily, "Young man, we're already giving you face by not hitting you. Move aside quickly! We'll pretend that your tomb-robbing didn't happen. If you don't move aside, believe it or not, we'll tie you up and take you to the police station?!"
It's hard to persuade the damned ghosts with kind words.
Chen Qing shook his head.
Without showing any emotion, he picked up the Demon-Suppressing Tower, the military spade, biscuits, mineral water, and other things all at once and stood aside.
The Demon-Suppressing Tower hadn't awakened yet, so he couldn't leave.
"What are you still standing here for?! What? Are you still thinking about the things inside?"
"I've been digging for the whole morning. I'm tired. I'll leave after taking a rest."
"Brother Niu, I don't think this kid is honest. He might want to take something away. Keep an eye on him!"
"Don't worry. If he can take away one thing today, I'll take his surname!"
The burly black man walked directly to Chen Qing's side and deliberately bumped into him a couple of times, sneering:
"How interesting. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have known that there were treasures right under our feet."
Another person also said, "Since you've dug for us for so long, should we give you a few dozen yuan as hard work pay?"
At this time, a bolder one had already turned on the rear light of his mobile phone and was the first to crawl inside.
Chen Qing thought to himself that this was bad. These guys would wake up the things inside ahead of time!
The girl who had been filming immediately pointed the camera at him:
"What do you want to do? Behave yourself! Article 328, Paragraph 1. The crime of robbing ancient cultural sites and ancient tombs refers to the act of robbing ancient cultural sites and ancient tombs with historical, artistic, and scientific value. Depending on the circumstances, the sentence can range from less than three years, to more than ten years, to life imprisonment!"
"I'm going to be a lawyer!"
Chen Qing wanted to say that you're just defining the crime for what you're doing right now.
But he just remained silent.
He secretly prayed that the Demon-Suppressing Tower would awaken quickly.
"Damn it! There are so many things!"
The person who entered first suddenly cheered.
The voice echoed between the tomb chamber and the tomb-robbing hole, rumbling and sounding extremely eerie.
All the villagers were overjoyed immediately!
They cheered collectively.
Several of them scrambled to squeeze into the narrow tomb-robbing hole.
"We're rich! Damn it! There's hope for me to move into the city!"
Soon, the second person who entered also let out an excited voice.
"Gold! Jade! Jade! Wow!! So much gold! We're rich! We're rich!!"
"Quick, get the sacks! We're rich! We're rich!!"
The filming girl sneered, "Didn't you say it had been emptied long ago? What about now?"
"Have you ever thought about why there's a tomb-robbing hole but so many things are left?" Chen Qing asked calmly.
The girl was slightly stunned.
Right!
The existence of the tomb-robbing hole proved that tomb robbers had entered.
Why were there still so many things left inside?
She couldn't figure it out, but she was still stubborn: "None of your business! Are you jealous because you can't get any?"
"Kid, have you rested enough? Get lost!" The burly black man also said.
The noise inside the hole was getting louder.
"Don't push! Don't push! Behave yourselves! No matter how much there is, we'll divide it equally! Don't push!"
"Damn it! We're rich! This ring must be worth a fortune!"
"This... this bracelet, did... did it just fly?!"
Only about ten people had crawled into the hole, but the noise was as loud as that made by dozens of people.
They were really excited.
"There's a coffin! Come on! Everyone, give it a push!"
With this shout, a ghostly energy several times stronger than before spread out, and everyone started shivering.
The Demon-Suppressing Tower shook slightly! Black gas gradually filled the air around it.
"It's starting to awaken!"
In his previous life, the paper armor and paper knife given by Chen Kuan had awakened, so Chen Qing was no stranger to this.
Just in case, Chen Qing didn't touch the Demon-Suppressing Tower but was ready to run away at any time.
"Ah!!"
Suddenly, there was a scream.
"Damn it! You scared the hell out of me! What's going on?!"
"She... she seemed to move just now?"
"Move my ass!"
"Really... really moved!"
"Damn it!"
"Ah!!"
"Ah!!!"
"Ghosts!!"
"Ghosts!!! "
Several screams!
Everyone's faces changed drastically.
The Demon-Suppressing Tower finally started to change.
The girl who had been filming Chen Qing was suddenly dragged into the hole by something. At the last moment, she tightly held onto the edge of the hole with both hands and looked at Chen Qing: "Help me!! Help me!!!"
Chen Qing smiled slightly, threw away the military spade and other miscellaneous things, and ran like crazy!
Buzz——
The whole ground shook violently!
It was as if a huge monster was about to drill out from underground.
Chen Qing was shaken and jumped half a foot into the air. He almost fell down and staggered as he ran like crazy.
Ah!!
Ah!!
The screams continued.
The few people outside were also scared out of their wits. The burly black man ran like crazy.
However, the filming girl suddenly climbed out of the tomb-robbing hole unhurriedly, with a strange look on her face, her eyes red, and she looked at Chen Qing's back and beckoned stiffly: "Come back, young man!"
"Come back, young man!"
About ten voices from inside and outside the hole spoke in unison. Vaguely, it formed a female voice.
Chen Qing didn't dare to look back and ran like crazy!
At a certain moment, all the screams stopped abruptly.
The scorching sun was calm.
There was no wind on the ground.
Only Chen Qing was gasping for breath heavily, tightly holding the Demon-Suppressing Tower, and running like crazy.
He kept running until his lungs felt as if they were torn and his throat was about to burst into flames. Finally, Chen Qing sat down on the ground, panting heavily.
It was definitely an evil spirit level!
The people killed by it were probably going to turn into ghosts too.
After a while, Chen Qing finally caught his breath.
He walked a long enough distance and was almost back to the city before he looked at the Demon-Suppressing Tower.
He took out the newly bought flashlight, pulled out the small knife, cut a small cut on his fingertip, and smeared the blood on the tower.
Suddenly, he felt a strange sensation.
He weighed the Demon-Suppressing Tower: "Small!"
With this word, the Demon-Suppressing Tower, which was the size of a mineral water bottle, immediately shrank by half.
Chen Qing was overjoyed!
"Small!"
The Demon-Suppressing Tower became the size of a No. 5 battery.
Looking at a big stone by the roadside, with a thought in his mind, he said, "Take it in!"
The big stone immediately disappeared and was taken into the tower.
It was worthy of being one of the two super ancient artifacts!
With a thought in his mind, Chen Qing gently threw it out and at the same time thought: "Big!"
The next moment, an iron tower as tall as a person crashed heavily onto the ground.
It was like a sledgehammer falling, with sparks flying everywhere, and spider-web-like cracks appeared on the concrete ground.
