Chapter 441 - 441: In The Storm, Just For One Person (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Su Guowei, who was outside the border, saw the ancient tomb collapse with his own eyes, but he was powerless to stop it. He could not help but feel extremely pained. He had always been worried about Su Yun.
However, he had seen the tragic scene caused by the collapse. How could Su Yun be safe and sound in such an environment? Even so, he still had a trace of hope. What if a miracle happened?
Zhao Tianbao and the others pulled Su Guowei with all their might to prevent him from rushing into the tomb.
After Su Guowei suffered a huge sorrow, his body went limp and he fainted on the ground.
Zhao Tianbao and the others could only settle Su Guowei down first. Then, they paid close attention to the news from China. They could not interfere in this matter at all. They could only silently hope that Su Yun would be safe and sound, but they knew very well that this hope was especially slim. “Nephew… Sigh!”
The search and rescue operation did not stop at all from the beginning. After a few hours, there was no gain. Even the advanced life detection equipment could no longer locate any vital signs underground. This was undoubtedly a conclusion to Su Yun and Chen Jie’s situation.
Feng Shaoyu and the others had been watching the scene. Everyone’s faces were ashen. During this period, Feng Shaoyu had already submitted the report. In the report, he specially mentioned the crucial role that Su Yun played in this incident.
The media from various places quickly arrived after hearing the news, but they did not mention anything about Su Yun.
Because this matter was highly confidential, the media had no way of knowing. As for whether Su Yun’s matter would be publicly reported in the end, it still depended on the report handed in by Feng Shaoyu and what the higher-ups thought.
But Feng Shaoyu and the others were not in the mood to consider this at all.
They were all worried about Su Yun and only hoped that there would be a result as soon as possible. Even though no one mentioned this matter again, in their hearts, they were all clear.
Under such circumstances, the chances of Su Yun surviving were so low that it was almost negligible.
Ten meters deep into the ground, the ancient tomb that had stood for a thousand years was finally buried in ruins. The original tomb path had long been impossible to distinguish. In the darkness, there was only sand enough to bury everything. Only some substances that had originally formed the tomb passage were mixed in the sand and mud, indicating that an ancient tomb had indeed appeared here.
Crack..
Crack..
A subtle sound came from the dark underground. Immediately after, a weak fire lit up, illuminating a narrow space. A huge stone slab fell diagonally and hit the falling rock that Su Yun had split open previously.
In addition, the four pillars that had originally supported the entire tomb did not completely collapse after collapsing, forming a triangle with this fallen stone slab. Under this triangular framework, there were a few square meters. The collapse of the wall of the main tomb also revealed a secret passage that had not been discovered by anyone.
Crack..
The faint sound sounded again, and then the dim fire lit up the surroundings again. In the firelight, Su Yun’s face was reflected.
Su Yun looked a little disheveled. There were a few abrasions on his face, and his right arm was dyed red with blood. It was as if he did not feel any pain at all. After turning on the lighter in his hand, he lit a broken lampstand. Thankfully, the solid lamp oil on it could still be ignited. This also provided him with a precious light source.
In a corner, Chen Jie curled up weakly. After this place collapsed, it was fortunate that this triangular framework helped Su Yun and Chen Jie withstand many fatal rocks. This allowed them to survive until now.
However, in this dark place, Su Yun did not know how long they had been trapped. The spare oxygen in Chen Jie’s bag had almost been used up. What awaited them seemed to be an inescapable death.
With half a lamp in his hand, Su Yun staggered to Chen Jie’s side. As the environment in the triangular frame was very limited, Su Yun had no choice but to try his best to lower his body before he could move.
The thin oxygen made Su Yun feel drowsy. He had no choice but to grit his teeth to barely maintain his mental state. “Miss Chen Jie, we can’t stay here. Otherwise, we will definitely die in another hour.”
Even Su Yun was in such a sorry state, let alone Chen Jie, who was a woman. At this moment, she was so weak that it was difficult for her to even stand up. Fortunately, before Chen Jie entered the archeology Institute, she had followed the team out on many missions. After encountering a narrow pass and many hardships, she did not completely lose her mind, although she was a little flustered.
“Su Yun, are you alright? Are you injured?” Su Yun gently helped Chen Jie up. This quickly made her notice the blood on Su Yun’s arm and she could not help but ask with concern.
Su Yun originally wanted to express that he was fine, but Chen Jie had already gently turned Su Yun’s arm around. A dazzling wound appeared in Chen Jie’s eyes. Even now, blood was still flowing out. It was no wonder Su Yun was so weak now. In such an oxygen-deprived environment, he was still facing blood loss. Anyone would be like this..
