Chapter 144
After the laughter, the two stood in the darkness of the hall, facing each other at a distance of four or five meters.
The atmosphere seemed a little strange.
In ancient times, wars also emphasized a pretext for the battle, so the two knew very well that whoever attacked first would be the "villain".
Chen Yibai was worried that if he attacked first and Yan Xuefei ran away, his remaining 150 million yuan in hiring money would be wasted.
Yan Xuefei was worried that if she failed to win without a 100% chance of winning and was killed by Chen Yibai, it would be really embarrassing.
So the two of them had their own plans and were stuck in this awkward situation.
In theory, King Kang was dead, and Yan Xuefei had also obtained the Fengshen Xuanzhu she wanted. Everyone was happy, shook hands and made peace, and could sit down and have a cup of tea after returning.
Moreover, the assets of the Yan family's Shending Group were tens of billions, and they were not short of Chen Yibai's 150 million yuan in hiring money.
But Yan Xuefei didn't think so.
Although she could afford the final payment of 150 million yuan for the hiring fee, it didn't matter if she didn't cheat.
Although Yan Xuefei had big breasts, she had a small trachea. Not only was she fooled by Chen Yibai and cheated out of the Earthly Order, but she was also almost killed by him and became a ghost under the sword. This was really a bad breath that she couldn't swallow.
This ancient tomb was the most suitable place to kill people and silence them. Even if Uncle Hat found this place, he would basically treat the bodies in the ancient tomb as tomb robbers who caused internal strife due to uneven distribution of spoils.
If she wanted to find such a good opportunity to vent her anger and take revenge after returning, it would be difficult.
Chen Yibai watched Yan Xuefei's expression change after she put away her smile, and he guessed her psychological activities at this time. He muttered to himself: "It seems that this woman is really narrow-minded. She just wanted to kill you, but she didn't kill you..."
At the same time, Chen Yibai saw that the red ancient sword in his hand slowly returned to its original red color, which was the sword plague slowly dissipating.
At the same time, the green mold spots that spread and covered the hall were also slowly fading and began to return to their original appearance.
Chen Yibai glanced at the red ancient sword in his hand, and then looked at the hall with the corner of his eyes.
Since the sword plague of the red ancient sword has disappeared, Chen Yibai's heart is naturally more confident, waiting for Yan Xuefei to make the first move at any time.
As long as Yan Xuefei makes the first move, even if she can't kill her and she runs away, then he can go back and ask for his 150 million commission with confidence.
No! By then, it will be more than 150 million.
On the other hand, Yan Xuefei was not 100% sure in the first place, and when she saw the long sword in Chen Yibai's hand return to its original red color, her heart was even more nervous.
Thump, thump...
Just at this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps downstairs, accompanied by a ball of white light.
Someone else came up, and judging by the footsteps, there were still many people.
Chen Yibai was very surprised and puzzled. Where did this person come from? Who was this person?
As a result, a familiar voice came from downstairs: "There is a staircase here, it should be upstairs, everyone be alert!"
Shit!
Chen Yibai frowned, it was Yan Wanlei's voice, how did the police find this place?
But now there is no time to think about this, because he had killed someone on the tomb before, if he was found out again, it would not be as simple as tomb robbery.
Killing people and robbing tombs, and five lives, this is a serious crime of emptying the magazine!
So Chen Yibai didn't care about Yan Xuefei anymore, and turned around and rushed to the side door on the left side of the hall.
Goodbye, I won't play with you anymore!
Yan Xuefei knew in advance that the police would find this place based on the location, but she didn't expect them to follow so quickly, so when she saw that the situation was not right, she quickly followed Chen Yibai's direction and retreated first.
These days, if you are caught in an ancient tomb, it is equivalent to being caught ready-made, and you will be convicted as a tomb robber.
For a tomb of this size, the minimum consumption is fifteen years.
Chen Yibai and Yan Xuefei evacuated very quickly, and their figures were as agile as two tabby cats in the dark.
When Yan Wanlei arrived with fully armed special forces, the hall was empty.
Yan Wanlei immediately made a gesture, indicating that the whole team should search separately, and at the same time, a pair of eyes carefully observed the situation in the hall.
Although the mold spots in the hall have disappeared, there is still a musty and burnt smell in the air, like the smell of rotten meat being burned in the fire.
Looking at the pools of black corpse water left in the ruins of the collapsed part of the hall, Yan Wanlei, who has been to King Kang's tomb, knows that these are zongzi.
Because some of the decayThe black corpse water had not yet completely solidified, so Yan Wanlei judged that at most a few minutes ago, a very fierce battle had taken place here, but it was a pity that he was late.
If he had arrived a few minutes earlier, he should have been Chen Yibai's burden again.
"Captain Yan, I seemed to see two black shadows running out just now. They should be tomb robbers. Should we chase them?"
At this time, a special forces member shone a flashlight in the direction of the side door of the hall and asked Yan Wanlei.
Not only this special forces member, Yan Wanlei also vaguely saw it when he came up just now.
But Yan Wanlei did not immediately send someone to chase, but shook his head and said: "This tomb is much larger than we imagined. The situation has changed. Let's block this place first and call for reinforcements..."
Yan Wanlei is also an experienced old man. He knows very well that he can turn this place upside down, comparable to the Monkey King making trouble in the Heavenly Palace, and he can only be regarded as a heavenly soldier at best. It is too difficult to catch up with them here.
Especially Chen Yibai's strength, Yan Wanlei has seen it before. Not only is he smart, but he also has a very high IQ. He has an extraordinary understanding of the ancient tomb. This is almost like his territory, so even if the whole team goes to chase him, Yan Wanlei is not 1% sure to catch him.
Not only can he not catch him, but he is also likely to lose soldiers and generals.
In this case, it is better not to chase him directly. Leading the team here and discovering such a large-scale ancient tomb, even if he can't catch a living tomb robber, he can still get a second-class merit.
And this second-class merit is picked up for nothing.
On the contrary, if he goes to chase him, if he can't catch him and loses soldiers and generals, not only will he not get any credit, he may also be punished.
Yan Wanlei certainly won't take risks for such a thankless task.
When the special forces team members around him heard that Yan Wanlei gave up the pursuit, he wanted to say something else, but after thinking about it, it's better to have less trouble than more, so he quickly swallowed his words and began to seal off the scene...
