Chapter 130 Purge the Team
The two men remained undeterred, and there was no trace of fear in their eyes.
It seems they had long since disregarded life and death.
"Do it."
One of them suddenly shouted and then turned his head to shove the Xieling disciple aside.
The other person reacted quickly, and in the instant he ducked, he rolled to the side and behind a stone pillar.
The disciples of the Unloading Ridge Sect opened fire decisively, but the two men dodged their shots with their professional tactical maneuvers.
Chaos erupted on the platform, with gunshots, women's screams, and chaotic footsteps filling the air.
Just then, the middle-aged professor suddenly pulled a pistol from his pocket and shot it straight at Cheng Feng's head, saying:
"Tell your men to stop, or I'll shoot!"
Faced with the middle-aged professor's threat, Cheng Feng simply sighed.
At this moment, the disciples of the Unloading Ridge Sect also noticed the change in Cheng Feng's situation and pointed their pistols at the other students.
"Old man, you should put down your gun. We have more hostages now."
Black Bear, who had been watching the commotion with his arms crossed, chuckled as he watched the situation turn from chaos to a stalemate.
To everyone's surprise, the middle-aged professor also started laughing.
"Then why don't we all fire together? If you all end up losing your heads, we won't be at a loss."
"You were someone important, it's a real shame you died here."
As Cheng Feng spoke, his hand was already on the pistol pointed at his head.
The middle-aged professor's expression changed drastically, and before he could pull the trigger, Cheng Feng casually snatched the pistol from his hand.
Staggering back a few steps, the professor's face turned ashen.
“If you had just obeyed me, you might have had a chance to live, but it seems you didn’t seize the opportunity.”
As he spoke, Cheng Feng raised his pistol to kill the middle-aged man.
"stop!"
Two men with buzz cuts emerged from their hiding place and shouted anxiously.
bang bang
Three gunshots followed immediately.
The middle-aged professor and two men with buzz cuts were shot at the same time and fell to the ground.
Ding Ding Ding
The spent cartridge case made a crisp sound as it hit the stone.
The young man, who looked like a student, slumped to the ground, his expression blank, seemingly unable to accept this reality.
The blood of the three flowed into the patterns on the ground, gradually seeping deeper below.
"Why are you in such a hurry? It's much more fun to play with them a little longer."
Black Bear realized there was nothing funny to watch and said helplessly.
"It's not you who's having a gun pointed at your head."
Having eliminated the three most threatening individuals, Cheng Feng put away his pistol and said irritably.
Hei Xiazi chuckled and said nothing more.
Cheng Feng turned his gaze to the remaining few young students.
But the three girls were unusually calm, a stark contrast to their panicked state just moments before.
"I've long heard that Fourth Master has a capable assistant, known in the underworld as Black Glasses, Master Black. Meeting him today, I can see he's truly extraordinary."
This time, it was Cheng Feng's turn to laugh out loud.
"Blind man, it seems you have quite a few acquaintances."
Hei Xiazi knew that Cheng Feng was retaliating against his teasing when the golden monkey came to his door.
"Yes, my acquaintances are just three beauties, they can't compare to your acquaintances who can climb trees."
"You know you can't compare, so hurry up and go over there and examine her. I don't think this third woman is a good person."
Cheng Feng said irritably.
Black Bear walked up to the three women with a smile and said:
"Judging from how you addressed my former boss, you must be from the Nine Gates."
The slimmest of the three women spoke up:
“What Master Hei said is correct. My name is Huo Yan and the others are Huo Xin and Huo Wen. We participated in this Qinling scientific expedition team on the orders of the family head.”
"So you're from the Huo family. How is Aunt Huo?"
Hei Xiazi started chatting with the three girls as if they were old friends in a foreign land.
The three women responded one by one, and through these trivial details, the identities of the bears were determined.
After returning to Cheng Feng's side, Hei Xiazi whispered in Cheng Feng's ear:
"I did stay at the Huo family's residence, but I can't guarantee there weren't any other problems."
Cheng Feng nodded slightly.
"The blind man just swore on his own life to let you live, so I congratulate you on surviving."
The black bear's eyes, hidden behind his sunglasses, looked like they were about to pop out.
When did I ever say that? You're slandering me.
"Sir Blackie, we will always remember your kindness!"
The three women's grateful gazes made Hei Xiazi feel uncomfortable, but they also successfully silenced his words of defense.
Hei Xiazi chuckled dryly, then turned away somewhat guiltily to avoid the three burning gazes.
Cheng Feng laughed heartily from the side, thinking, "You little rascal, you've got to insult me!"
"Alright, the death penalty is waived, but the work still needs to be done. The task of opening the coffin is entrusted to you."
Cheng Feng chose not to be human, so what if he's a woman? Even the Great Leader said that women hold up half the sky.
So you should just stick to being a mine-clearing soldier.
The three women remained unmoved upon hearing this. They had all undergone special training, and going down into the tomb to open the coffin would not be difficult for them.
"Chief, we have no problem opening the coffin, but could we eliminate any potential threats beforehand?"
The slender Huo Yan looked at the male student who looked utterly hopeless by the rock.
They were working with the rest of the team for the first time, so they didn't have any psychological barriers to starting.
"Compared to your pretense, your current way of doing things gives you a better chance of survival."
As he spoke, Cheng Feng gave the disciples of the Unloading Ridge Sect a wink.
Bang
After a gunshot, the world lost another heartbroken person.
Cheng Feng acted so swiftly because he suspected these people were his agents.
None of these three members of the Huo family have been completely cleared of suspicion.
"Thank you, we'll open the coffin now."
After saying that, Huo Yan led the two women to the coffin in a swift and decisive manner.
They first checked it and found that the coffin was not secured with nails.
They then went to one end of the coffin and placed their hands on the coffin lid.
With a forceful pull backward, the wooden coffin, sealed for who knows how long, was opened.
After the three women opened the coffin, they first took a few steps back, and one of them looked inside.
"It is safe."
After saying that, the three of them stood aside and did not look into the contents of the coffin.
Cheng Feng gestured for the Xieling disciples to put away their weapons, and then walked toward the coffin.
From the opening, it can be seen that the corpse inside has been reduced to skeletons, making it virtually impossible for it to have reanimated.
Upon seeing this, Cheng Feng immediately opened the coffin lid completely.
With a wave of his hand, Cheng Feng brushed away the dust in front of him and looked into the coffin.
The first thing you see is a square treasure box about the size of a basketball, which is currently placed on the chest of the skeleton.
The coffin occupant's two grayish-white hand bones rested on the treasure box; apart from that, only weathered strips of cloth remained inside the coffin.
"The owner of this tomb was quite poor; the only burial item was a box."
Black Bear covered his mouth and nose and said in a muffled voice.
Cheng Feng didn't immediately grab the box. Just as Hei Xiazi had said, such a shabby coffin contained an exquisite treasure box.
Something just doesn't look right.
Moreover, he knew that this was not the main tomb; the main burial chamber should be below this platform.
"This box, like those three acquaintances of yours, doesn't look safe, so it's better to leave it to future generations."
Without hesitation, Cheng Feng turned and left the coffin.
