Chapter 531
Hei Xia Zi had actually heard about Wang Pangzi's identity as early as the first time they met. However, since there was no major conflict between him and Wang Pangzi at that time, Hei Xia Zi chose to turn a blind eye.
"Of course I know about this," Hei Xia Zi said frankly, "but I wasn't familiar with you at that time. Although I am indeed employed by your third uncle, I naturally wouldn't interfere too much in matters that were not within the scope of the plan."
His tone was relaxed and natural, without any intention of concealment, as if all this was normal.
Wu Xie's curiosity was piqued upon hearing this. He eagerly asked, "My Third Uncle hired you? Why did he do this? What was the reason?"
After Hei Xia Zi and Qi Yu exchanged a glance, Wu Xie heard Hei Xia Zi explain slowly, "Your Third Uncle had actually hired me to clean up the remains of the Lu King's Tomb you first visited long before you did. Even Da Jin Ya's visit that day was arranged by your Third Uncle in advance. His goal was to make you willingly step into their carefully crafted chess game."
Qi Yu added, "This chessboard was actually originally conceived by your grandfather and his team. They thought that since they couldn't complete it themselves, they would let their next generation and the next generation complete it for them."
Hearing this, Wu Xie's pupils suddenly shrank. He widened his eyes and looked at Qi Yu in astonishment, as if he had heard the most incredible thing in the world.
"So, even if I hadn't pestered my third uncle to take me to the Tomb of Prince Lu, I would still have been taken there by him in the end, right?" Wu Xie's voice trembled a little, and an unspeakable fear and anger surged in his heart.
Fatty Wang turned his head away, as if he couldn't bear to see Wu Xie's current state. He was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Wu Xie, I didn't tell you the truth! Actually, your Third Uncle also hired me, but his plan for me was to follow Qiu Dekao's men into the Tomb of Prince Lu, then use the mechanisms in the tomb to detain them all, and finally reunite with you at the Seven Star Coffin."
Wu Xie's body trembled slightly. He looked at Fatty Wang and Hei Xiazi in disbelief, feeling like a clown who had been fooled.
"So, you knew from the beginning that I would go, and you also knew all of my Third Uncle's plans, but you all pretended to know me for the first time and treated me like a fool!" Wu Xie's voice was full of despair and anger, his fists clenched tightly, his nails digging deep into his palms.
As someone who had long hidden in the darkness, Hei Xia Zi had a unique perspective and voice on his experiences in the Tomb of King Lu. He explained sincerely, "Wu Xie, you really misunderstood us! After Fatty Wang and I were hired by your Third Uncle, we put a lot of effort into giving you a truly immersive experience. We roamed the tomb, carefully inspecting and eliminating most of the threatening items, leaving only a few that were less likely to injure you but would still provide you with training."
Fatty Wang was also recalling those days. The two of them lived directly in the tomb and even slept next to the Seven-Star Coffin, but they never saw a zongzi crawl out.
However, Wu Xie hadn't even entered the tomb yet. As soon as he reached the water robber's cave, he felt like the soul of a zongzi had been taken away! And what happened next was even more outrageous!
Fatty Wang wiped his face helplessly, his face full of the vicissitudes of life. He sighed deeply and said with emotion: "Wu Xie, to be honest, I have never seen anyone as miserable as you in my life!"
Black Blind Man silently lit a cigarette for himself and Fatty Wang. "Wu Xie, your evil nature is far beyond your imagination! I! The infamous Nan Xia! I've been roaming the tombs for so many years, but I haven't seen as many Zongzi as you did in just one tomb!"
After hearing this, Fatty Wang nodded repeatedly in agreement. "That's right, Wu Xie. Actually, I really don't want to go to that underwater tomb with you! But there's nothing I can do about it. Your Third Uncle gave me too much money!"
At this moment, Qi Yu was sitting nearby, watching the three of them with great interest, listening to their gossip. His curiosity was piqued, and he couldn't contain it any longer. He reached out and grabbed Hei Xia Zi's collar, eagerly asking, "What exactly did you and Wu Xie experience when you went down to the tomb together? Can you tell me in detail?"
Before Wu Xie could retort, Fatty Wang and Hei Xiazi, as if they had found a bucket to pour out their grievances to, poured out all the grievances that had been suppressed in their hearts for a long time!
Fatty Wang complained bitterly, saying that he had been following Wu Xie for such a long time, but not only had he not gained any benefits, he had even lost a lot of money! If it weren't for his uncle always giving him a deposit before taking action, he would probably no longer be called Fatty Wang, but would have changed his name to Wang Skinny!
Hei Xia Zi also echoed this, saying that the tomb of King Lu was a piece of cake for him. Even if he walked in with his eyes closed, no monster would suddenly appear.
He had originally thought that the matter was a sure thing, and was even ready to ask Wu Sansheng for the balance.
But who could have thought that this guy Wu Xie had already drawn out the soul of the female Zongzi from the Western Zhou Dynasty before even entering the tomb!
Entering the tomb was even more outrageous. First, the Seven Star Coffin, which had been confirmed to be immune to sudden resurrection, was touched by Wu Xie! Ah! Zongzi was picked out and chased by Wu Xie, jumping up and down in a panic!
Afterwards, Wu Xie took the backpack left by Fatty Wang and found an empty place to study the blueprints. Hei Xia Zi thought that there wouldn't be any problems in studying the blueprints! Wu Xie walked around a few times and then left without knowing where he was!
Later, Hei Xia Zi learned from Fatty Wang that Wu Xie had fallen directly into the corpse pit! After that, he was "accosted" by the Hydra Cypress, kissed a beautiful female corpse, and then fell down and opened the coffin in the main tomb!
Qi Yu was listening to the complaints of Fatty Wang and Hei Xiazi, and his heart was beaming with joy, while Wu Xie looked embarrassed. He really hoped that a black hole would appear on the ground immediately so that he could quickly crawl into it to avoid continuing to embarrass himself here!
What followed was the harsh criticism of Wu Xie by Fatty Wang and Hei Xia Zi, with Shang Qi Yu occasionally echoing him, making Wu Xie feel so bad that he wanted to burrow into the ground and never come out again!
It was not until the fight ended that Hei Xia Zi and the other two began to listen to Qi Yu’s true purpose of coming to this secret room!
