Five or six people walked out with big and small bags and got into two off-road vehicles.
Tang Zheng furrowed his brows.
Although they were separated by a street, he could still feel the murderous aura from them. There was also a strong Yin energy.
This meant that not only were their hands stained with blood, but they had also been in a graveyard full of Yin energy all year round. That was why they were so stained with Yin energy.
"They really are grave robbers."
A cold light flashed in Tang Zheng's eyes. He was like a lurking tiger staring at a pack of wolves.
Vroom!
The off-road vehicle started, and with a graceful swerve of its tail, it sped away, leaving behind a trail of dust.
Professor Qi hurriedly urged Tang Zheng, "Quick, don't lose them."
"We can't run away! Sit tight. " Tang Zheng also started the car. The roar of the engine made people's blood boil. This car was specially prepared for him by Mu Hongyan. It had been carefully modified, and its performance was much better than other cars.
"Old Qi, be careful," Old Wei said worriedly.
Professor Qi's face was red as if he had a second spring. He waved his hand proudly and said, "Don't worry, wait for my triumphant return. This discovery will definitely shock the world."
He was full of confidence, like a fighter.
Vroom!
Tang Zheng started the car and roared away, following the grave robbers from afar.
One in front and one behind, the two groups of people drove out of the capital and onto the highway. Tang Zheng looked at the road signs. These people were heading south. As for their destination, it was unknown.
The grave robbers were very vigilant. If not for Tang Zheng being careful, he would have been discovered several times.
Night fell. The grave robber got off the highway and stopped in front of a small hotel.
"What do we do?" Professor Qi asked.
Tang Zheng was bold and said, "Let's go to the hotel. They haven't seen us before, so there's no need to be afraid."
Professor Qi was eager to try. This was an unprecedented experience. He was so excited that his cheeks were red. He rubbed his hands and said, "We'll have to face the grave robbers in a while."
Tang Zheng patted his shoulder and said, "Professor Qi, calm down. It's just a few grave robbers."
Professor Qi said disapprovingly, "You don't know how much archaeologists hate grave robbers. If we can catch them with the stolen goods and hand them over to the police, it will be a great deed."
"Okay, after it's done, we'll hand them over to the police," Tang Zheng promised.
By the time the two of them got out of the car, the grave robber had already checked in. He watched the other party go upstairs from afar. Professor Qi's eyes were fixed on the back of the grave robber. His eyeballs almost fell out of their sockets.
Cough!
Tang Zheng coughed lightly and reminded Professor Qi to pay attention because the hotel owner was already paying attention to them.
Professor Qi blushed and quickly retracted his gaze.
"Two rooms!" Tang Zheng handed over the money and documents.
The boss looked at the two of them deeply, went through the registration procedures with a straight face, and then handed the two of them two access cards.
There was no need to expect any service from the owner of such a small hotel. Anyway, the two of them didn't care about that. They took the room card and went upstairs.
"Which room are they staying in?" Professor Qi asked in a low voice.
"The third floor, right next to us. They've booked three rooms." Tang Zheng's hearing was excellent. The soundproofing of such a small hotel was not very good. He could already vaguely hear the grave robber's voice.
However, the other party deliberately lowered their voices, so he couldn't hear what they were saying.
"Sigh, it's such a waste for the two of us to get two rooms." Professor Qi looked at the room card in his hand, came back to his senses, and muttered.
Tang Zheng smiled slightly, but did not explain the reason. The last time he entered the Hundred Thousand Mountains with Professor Qi and the others, he had a deep impression of Professor Qi. He especially liked to snore. It was earth-shattering and made it difficult for people to sleep.
He didn't want to endure that kind of destruction again, so he deliberately booked two rooms.
After they entered their rooms, Tang Zheng was a little tired after driving all the way. He ate a little and went to sleep. In a daze, he was suddenly awakened by a noise, mixed with Professor Qi's exclamation.
Tang Zheng jumped out of bed like a carp and quickly opened the door, only to see a lot of people crowded in the corridor. They blocked Professor Qi's door and were shouting fiercely.
Tang Zheng's heart tightened. Could it be that something happened to Professor Qi?
He quickly squeezed through the crowd and shouted, "Make way, make way!"
Finally, he squeezed through the door, only to see Professor Qi being forced into a corner by a few people. His clothes were messy, and there was a woman sitting on the bed with her hair blown dry. This woman had heavy makeup and an extremely short skirt, revealing two white thighs.
Seeing this scene, Tang Zheng was stunned. What was going on?
"Old man, you look so serious, but your mind is so dirty. Seeing that my sister is beautiful, you want to take advantage of her, right? Let me tell you, if you don't give us an explanation today, don't even think about leaving. "A bald man roared fiercely.
The bald man was shirtless, and there was a big gold chain around his neck. Coupled with his big pockmarked face, it was obvious that he was a gangster.
Tang Zheng was confused. How could Professor Qi have a conflict with this group of people? Moreover, the woman on the bed was too eye-catching. What the hell was going on?
But no matter what, he had to save Professor Qi first.
Professor Qi was so angry that his face and ears were red. He glared at them and retorted hoarsely, "You're slandering me. It's obvious that you're the ones who controlled the girl to do those dirty things. I want to call the police. I want the police to arrest you."
Professor Qi's voice was loud and righteous, but it made the group of people's eyes shine fiercely. They shouted unscrupulously, "Where did this old man come from? You dare to call the police? When the police come, don't even think about pleasing them."
When Tang Zheng heard this, his heart suddenly lit up, and he finally guessed that the woman was actually a young lady who came out to sell herself, and Professor Qi was … Impossible, with Tang Zheng's understanding of him, other than being obsessed with archaeology, this old man would not have much interest in women, let alone at his age, he would not be able to do anything, and his taste would not be that low.
This was a trap — an immortal's trap!
Although Tang Zheng had never really encountered it, he had made many friends with people from all walks of life. He still knew a little about this kind of dirty trick.
Perhaps, the two of them had been targeted since they entered the hotel. The boss must have been in cahoots with this group of people. When he saw that the two of them were foreigners, he had evil intentions.
He must have thought that the old man was easy to fool and chose to target Professor Qi.
Tang Zheng's face sank. This group of people was really f * cking shameless. They actually dared to target Professor Qi. This old man had done research all his life and must have valued his reputation very much. Now that he was slandered as a prostitute, it would be worse than death.
Tang Zheng did not delay and rushed over with large strides. The few burly men only felt their bodies sway and were pushed aside. The next second, they saw a young man standing in front of the old man.
The bald man stared and disdainfully said, "Oh, you actually have an accomplice. So what? This old man bullied my little sister. If he doesn't give an explanation, no one can step out of this door."
Tang Zheng turned a deaf ear and supported Professor Qi. "Professor Qi, what is going on?"
Hearing Tang Zheng call him professor, the bald man became even more arrogant. It was as if he had eaten stimulants. He shouted loudly, "So it's still a professor. A beast with a human face. I think it's more like a beast. If you don't give me an explanation, I'll go to your unit and ask for an explanation."
The bald man was an experienced person. He was ecstatic. This time, he had really picked up a treasure. This kind of person was most afraid of people going to his unit to cause trouble. In order to keep the peace, he had to give enough lottery tickets.
The bald man's eyes were red. It was as if he could see a sky full of money flying towards him like a fairy scattering flowers.
Professor Qi indignantly explained the whole story. It turned out that when he was resting, he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door. When he opened the door, he saw a woman with heavy makeup. The other party rushed into his room without saying anything and tried to sell him her services.
Although Professor Qi was obsessed with research, he still knew that the other party was a woman who had lost her virginity. Although this group of people often appeared in the news, it was the first time he had seen it. It was very fresh.
Of course, he definitely did not have any improper thoughts.
He just felt that the other party was very pitiful, so he tried his best to persuade her to take the right path. He even promised to find a job for her when he returned to Beijing.
He never thought that his love would harm himself. The door was pushed open with a bang, and then a group of people surrounded him fiercely. They insisted that Professor Qi was an old man who did not respect himself and bullied a woman.
Professor Qi was a scholar who met a soldier. He could not explain himself clearly and was unable to defend himself. He was said to be useless by the other party. His part-time job was to call a beast with a human face but a beast's heart.
Seeing Tang Zheng, Professor Qi's heart finally returned to his stomach. He grabbed Tang Zheng's hand and explained, "Don't believe their words. I'm really wronged." “
Tang Zheng smiled coldly and glanced at the people opposite him. "Of course I know you're wronged. This group of people came with ill intentions. They're obviously here to extort money. Professor Qi, you've been fooled."
Professor Qi's face was bitter. Although he was a titan in the archaeological world, he was helpless in the face of these things. He said dejectedly, "Then what should we do?"
"Pay up! You have to pay up!" The bald man shouted first.
"Professor Qi, sit on the chair and rest. I'll take care of it." Tang Zheng comforted him. He turned his eyes and saw a few familiar faces at the door. It was the group of grave robbers.
One of the grave robbers pointed at the dejected Professor Qi and whispered to him. Tang Zheng's heart trembled as he had a bad premonition.
As expected, the grave robber looked at Tang Zheng and Professor Qi warily, then turned around and left.
"I've been exposed." Although Tang Zheng did not know how the other party found out, he was still exposed. This matter was troublesome.
However, he did not have time to chase after them. He was stopped by the bald man and a group of people. Each of them was like a pack of wolves, staring at Tang Zheng with glowing eyes.
"Want to escape? No way! Close the door! "
