Chapter 678 Rescue



Chapter 678 Rescue

Sixty times, what does that mean?

He was a little unsure, so he tried it again, this time adding splits. The result was the same: sixty punches and forty splits per second.

hiss……

He couldn't help but gasp at his astonishing number. It was unbelievable! Could it really be related to that dream last night? Oh well, it's not a bad thing anyway. Great, looks like I can break another record.

After a brief moment of surprise, he composed himself, surveyed his surroundings, and cautiously approached the tomb, fully alert, because his friend was still inside, waiting for him to rescue him.

As he slowly approached the entrance to the ancient tomb, a long corridor appeared before him in the light and behind the stone wall. Apart from some scattered rubble at the entrance, the rest of the area was paved with neat bluestone, exuding a sense of solemnity.

It is not difficult to see that the owner of this ancient tomb must have been a person of great status, and it must be the tomb of an official from the Tang Dynasty.

The corridor stretched out to both sides, its end invisible, clearly extremely long. Every few meters, an oil lamp hung on the wall, now all lit, emitting a soft glow that illuminated the corridor.

Chao Bufan glanced back, then pondered for a moment before stepping into the corridor. Upon entering, he discovered that the corridor was even taller and wider than he had seen from the outside. The flickering candlelight illuminated this place that had been buried and sleeping underground for fourteen hundred years.

The entrance was in the middle of the long corridor, stretching far to both sides. It was obvious that the mysterious place behind this passage, paved with blue bricks, was enormous. Chao Bufan glanced in both directions, momentarily unsure whether to go left or right. His brow furrowed slightly; he knew nothing about this place either. Both sides of the corridor seemed identical, exuding a silent solemnity and mystery. Just then, his phone vibrated in his pocket. He quickly took it out and saw a text message from Zhou Weihua. Zhou Weihua told him that once inside the tomb, he should just go right; they were locked in the third tomb to the right of the main tomb.

Chao Bufan put his phone back in his pocket, looked up at the quiet corridor ahead, took a deep breath, and then walked forward.

He walked with extreme caution, his expression growing increasingly grave with each step. After walking nearly a hundred meters, he faintly heard voices ahead. He became even more cautious, hesitating for a moment before continuing forward. After walking several dozen more meters, the corridor finally came to an end, and the voices inside became clearly audible. Ahead lay a vast main chamber, hemispherical in shape, reaching a height of ten meters—truly extraordinary. Directly opposite him was another entrance (which was also an exit). In addition, there were ten stone doors, corresponding to ten tombs.

But at this moment, the entire tomb has been looted by tomb raiders, and even the coffin containing the tomb's owner is nowhere to be found.

Chao Bufan stood with his back against the wall, pondering a solution, when suddenly, a deep footstep echoed from the main acupoint, sounding particularly jarring in the quiet passage.

Chao Bufan's expression changed. He listened intently, but apart from that one sound, he heard no other noises for a long time, only the voices of the people inside talking. Chao Bufan took a deep breath, then slowly moved forward a step against the wall.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

The slightly heavy footsteps sounded somewhat slow, and the sound seemed to come from afar and then back again, like someone slowly pacing back and forth in the main cave.

"Scarface, go back and tell Anan that I, Old Black, said this. Ask him what he means by this. He promised me five kilograms of goods, but now he's only giving me two. Ask him if he doesn't want to cooperate anymore."

"Brother Hei, you know that the police have already shut down three of our factories. These two kilograms of goods were only managed by our boss through a lot of trouble. Please calm down. Our boss said that he will personally deliver the rest of the goods to you in a couple of days."

"Two more days? Are you kidding me? I've been waiting for a week already. I've transferred every penny to you. And yet, he made me wait a week, and now I have to wait two more days. I can wait, but can my men wait? What am I supposed to tell them?"

"Brother Hei, these are extraordinary times, so please be understanding. Our boss said that if things really come to a head, we'll refund every penny to you, and consider these goods a gift."

"Alright, I'll wait two more days and go back to tell Anan. If I don't receive the goods within two days, then we can't even be brothers anymore."

"Yes, yes, Brother Hei, thank you for your understanding. Brother Hei, if there's nothing else, I'll head back with the brothers."

"Yes, cowboy, take them down the mountain."

"yes, Sir."

Upon hearing this, Chao Bufan knew that there was no way to remain inactive now. He took a deep breath, then pulled a black handgun from his waist and rushed in, shouting, "Don't move! Anyone who moves will be killed!"

Inside the main cave, there were twenty or thirty people gathered. When they saw someone suddenly rush in, holding a gun, they were all startled...

"Everyone back off, cover your heads and crouch down, quick! Or I'll start shooting."

Chao Bufan moved his hands quickly and ordered everyone to crouch down.

"Brother, let's talk this out, don't do anything rash," a man said.

"Stop talking nonsense and squat down!" Chao Bufan shouted sternly.

Everyone quickly squatted down. The black man put his hands behind his head, looked up, and asked, "Brother, which gang are you from?"

As Chao Bufan retreated towards the third door, he pointed his pistol at everyone on the ground and said, "I'm not from any gang. I'm here to rescue some of my friends."

Retreating to the stone gate, Chao Bufan stretched out one palm and pushed the stone gate open with force. Then, he took out a dagger and threw it at Wang Zi's feet, telling them to untie the ropes themselves.

It turned out he was there to save someone. Blackie then gave a wink to a man next to him, who nodded slightly, intending to slip his hand inside Chao Bufan's clothes while Chao Bufan wasn't looking...

"do not move!"

With a sharp shout, Chao Bufan fired a shot at the fool with a "bang".

The man was so frightened that he quickly withdrew his hand.

"Brother, let's talk this out, please don't shoot," the black man said.

Chao Bufan glanced at the stone table in front of him and saw two bags of "flour" on it. He knew in his heart that this was the goods they were trading—drugs.

During this time, Zhou Weihua and the others had cut the ropes and arrived behind Chao Bufan. Chao Bufan turned around and looked at them, then asked, "Are you all alright?"
