CHAPTER 64: CHAPTER 64: STRIKING IT RICH

Ji Ning spoke to the Smart Brain on her wrist: "Bao Zi, play the events related to Ji Ning from the chaotic world after ten years."

"Okay, master. For ten years in the chaotic world, Ji Ning established the first human defense line in the Nanling Region, completely dividing the Pollution Zone from the Safe Zone. The criteria she set for the division are still used to this day..."

Ye Tong’s cheeks flushed slightly, using Ji Ning’s strength to stand, she whispered, "I... I’m not very good at history classes."

Oh my god... it’s so embarrassing.

To lose face like this in front of Sister Ning.

As a longtime fan of hers, I actually forgot such an important event.

Simply can’t show my face anymore.

...

"Let’s go." Ji Ning saw she had calmed down, released her arm, and climbed onto the coffin first, heading down into the passage.

Ye Tong was still very scared, but she dared not stay here alone, silently chanting "idol’s relics are ahead," she took a deep breath and crawled in.

The narrow passage only allowed one person at a time, so Ye Tong just kept her eyes on Ji Ning’s heels, gritting her teeth as she moved forward. After about five minutes, the path finally widened, and they entered a stone chamber.

This stone chamber was very large, with various utensils placed inside. The patterns on them were very beautiful, and the colors hadn’t faded over time but instead emanated an ancient, heavy, and majestic feeling.

Ye Tong forgot her fear, her eyes shining as her voice changed because of excitement: "Can we touch these things?"

Ji Ning thought for a moment, nodding slightly: "You can."

These were small items she had collected before. The old professor really loved these beautiful but useless antiques, so during the chaotic world years, whenever she saw antiques, she would subconsciously collect them and store them in safer places, like this Emperor’s Tomb.

Besides this chamber, there were over a dozen other stone chambers in the Emperor’s Tomb storing the antiques she collected.

Unexpectedly, over 100 years have passed, and these items were still the same as before, with no damage or discoloration.

Ji Ning was a bit surprised.

Nearby, Ye Tong happily rushed over, cautiously touching the items left and right, wishing she could take them all.

"Sister Ning, if we take all these, for this lifetime, no, it should be several generations of our descendants won’t have to worry anymore."

"Hmm?"

Ye Tong pointed at a vase: "Sister Ning, do you know how much a smaller, damaged vase like this sells for outside?"

Ye Tong thought of the treasure appraisal program she had seen earlier, her eyes bright with excitement.

"How much?"

"Eight million." Ye Tong held up eight fingers, her voice high and excited.

Ji Ning was slightly taken aback, glanced over the antiques in the stone chamber, then thought of the other places where she had hidden antiques, squinting her eyes slightly.

That’s a lot of money.

"I want to pack them up, they’re all worth eight million." Ye Tong put down her bag, chose a relatively large antique vase to stuff into her bag.

"Wait a minute." Ji Ning stopped her, and Ye Tong looked up at her, "This one is hard to preserve, it might break once we go outside."

"That’s true, then I’ll take some smaller vases." Ye Tong was quite regretful, reluctantly placing the antique vase back and looking for smaller, easy-to-carry antiques.

While she was absorbed in finding them, Ji Ning patted her on the shoulder, pointing to the four doors nearby, "Follow me."

Ye Tong stood up, followed Ji Ning to one of the doors.

The room inside was another stone chamber, with many huge boxes placed randomly inside. The paint on the box bodies was mostly peeled off, but the materials used for the box itself were perfectly intact.

"Wow, what are these boxes for?"

At this moment, Ye Tong’s fear had vanished, and her eyes were all about the eight million.

Ji Ning approached a box, opened the lid, and Ye Tong’s eyes instantly widened, her mouth opened unconsciously, staying stunned for a long time before finding her voice, excitedly pointing at the box, jumping up, "My god... my god—We’re rich, we’re rich, we’re rich!"

Inside the box was filled with pearls, agates, jade, complex and diverse in style, extremely beautiful.

One of them was a lotus flower carved from white jade, its petals blooming, the patterns resembling a real lotus from afar, looking lifelike like a real white lotus.

Ye Tong immediately turned and ran outside, grabbed the bag she had left in the outer stone chamber, ran back in, and with a big hand, began foolishly packing.

This time, Ji Ning didn’t stop her, even pointing to some square boxes buried under the pearls and agates, "What’s below is even better."

Ye Tong carefully shifted the pile of jades aside, eagerly lifted a square box, and gently opened it.

Inside lay a finely crafted golden phoenix head hairpin with white jade quietly.

Ye Tong was so surprised she quickly covered her mouth, afraid her lack of composure would damage it. After a while, she carefully closed the lid, gently placed the box into her bag, "I will treasure this forever."

After that, she examined all the other boxes in the chest, silently retrieved some of the original bracelets, Jade Bracelets, and Jade Pendants she had put in her bag.

Having seen truly good items, the gold and jade items she first saw paled in comparison.

"Sister Ning, I’ve decided. These things in the boxes should be well treasured. If we sell, let’s sell these things."

Ji Ning’s lips curled, not saying anything.

She had many of these items. Some were real antiques, some she picked up from mall ruins during the chaotic world.

In the chaotic world, these things that couldn’t be used for survival were just trash, nobody wanted them, so she collected many. Most were stored in the back hills of Anhe Base, she didn’t know if they could still be found now.

Ji Ning looked at Ye Tong smiling widely, trying to recall the places where she stored them before.

"Wow... there are gold bricks here too."

Ye Tong’s exclamation brought Ji Ning back, and she saw Ye Tong had already opened the nearby box, her eyes glowing at the box full of long gold bricks.

Then without hesitation, she packed it into her bag, filling all the remaining space.

"Sister Ning, is there still room in your bag?"

Ji Ning asked: "With so much packed, no need to look at the other boxes?"

Ye Tong hesitated, looking at the unopened boxes nearby, seemed to struggle for a long time before resolutely nodding, "I won’t look."

Ji Ning laughed lightly, seemingly casually walked to a box, opened the lid, and the golden silver jewelry inside nearly blinded Ye Tong.

The owner of this tomb must have looted a gold shop, right?

Ye Tong’s smile cracked open.

In the end, under Ji Ning’s suggestion, the decision-fatigued Ye Tong chose a backpack full of practical, easy-to-sell, inconspicuous antiques and gold, silver, jade items.

"Sister Ning, when are we coming back here next time?" Ye Tong reluctantly stared at the boxes scattered around, eagerly looked at Ji Ning.

"Don’t be greedy."

"Alright..."

Leaving these treasure chambers, Ji Ning led Ye Tong to an inconspicuous small door.

Ye Tong saw Ji Ning standing in front of the door, not moving for a long time, couldn’t help but ask: "Sister Ning, are there any treasures here too?"

Ji Ning took a deep breath, "No."

She raised her hand and pushed open the stone door, it was a rotating door, only allowing one person through at a time.

When Ye Tong turned in, she was stunned by the scene.

This was not quite like the other stone chambers, it was furnished with many simple items.

A wooden bed and several wooden cabinets, which were out of place in the entire tomb, almost like an outsider had settled here.

Suddenly, Ye Tong seemed to think of something, her eyes lit up as she asked: "Did the idol once stay here?"
