Ah——
A scream immediately rang out in the chamber.
The person Lin Chuan hit on the shoulder curled up on the ground, rolling in pain, and from the sound of the scream, it seemed like a bone had been fractured.
The other person hadn’t even had the chance to feel relieved when Lin Chuan quickly rolled over, his right arm bent, and delivered an elbow strike to the left side of his head.
There’s a saying in boxing, “Better to take ten punches than one elbow.”
Lin Chuan’s elbow strike held back very little and landed hard on the man’s head, causing him to fall straight to the ground, seeing stars and the world spinning.
Holding a strong flashlight, Qin Sisi got a clear look at the faces of the two men, they were not foreigners but appeared to be Tomb Robbers.
However, Lin Chuan and his group did not stop.
“Move quickly!”
Lin Chuan uttered a stern command.
Several more shadows quickly emerged from the middle passageway, and in the narrow tomb corridor, Lin Chuan was not entirely confident he could take them all down.
More likely, they would bypass him and directly target Qin Sisi, Zhong Xunfeng, and the others.
Accepting that he was a hindrance, Zhong Xunfeng responded and, together with another member of the Archaeological Team, hurriedly squeezed into the passageway.
Qin Sisi and Lin Chuan followed closely behind.
Bang!
Just as Lin Chuan and the others entered the passageway, a bullet accompanied by the sound of firing whizzed through the chilly tomb corridor and struck the stone slab on the wall.
“Good thing we ran quickly, having a gun is really troublesome,” Lin Chuan complained while leading the evacuation.
Within seven steps, a gun is fast.
Within seven steps, a gun is both fast and accurate.
In the current situation, Lin Chuan would not want to act like in the movies, to try and snatch the gun barehanded; that would be too risky.
Cough, the Little Landlady was still waiting for him in bed tonight.
First, escape; leave the rest to the police comrades to handle.
Lin Chuan led the team, retreating swiftly.
Returning by the original path, only when they entered the labyrinth-like tomb passageway they had come through did everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
Old Yao, who had led a group back through the maze earlier, met Lin Chuan and the others halfway and escorted them out of the maze, ascending from the hole by the ropes.
That group did not catch up.
At this moment.
The torrential downpour had stopped, and the mid-mountain side of Dabao Mountain was surrounded by misty clouds, the gloomy skies clearing, and even without the sunlight, it had brightened a lot.
The air after a summer rain was particularly fresh.
Huuu—
Zhong Xunfeng and Qin Sisi, among others, climbed out of the cave’s mouth, greedily breathing in the fresh and crisp air.
Seeing that Lin Chuan had brought Zhong Xunfeng and the others out safely, everyone breathed a deep sigh of relief and gathered around to warm them up.
Including the police station chief, Zhang Biao, had also arrived.
