Everyone thinks I'm a wealthy doctor's son-in-law

The night in the desert was shrouded in cold, and the whistling wind sounded like the wailing of evil spirits.

Gradually, Lu Ming's slight snoring came from beside him.

Shangguan Yanran turned her head quietly, Lu Ming's face could be vaguely seen in the dim light, and her expression became more and more complicated.

"Shangguan Yanran! The family appointed you to go to the magic capital and follow Lu Ming to help find the key to open the ancient box. This is also your parents' last wish. No matter what method you use, you must ensure that the ancient box falls into my Shangguan's house after opening. Otherwise, you will be kicked out of the clan forever! Just like your parents, even if you die, you will not be able to enter the Shangguan family's ancestral grave!"

A stern sentence echoed in her mind, and a deep guilt appeared in Shangguan Yanran's eyes.

At this moment, she didn't even dare to look at the sleeping Lu Ming, and turned her head quietly.

"I'm sorry Lu Ming, I can't follow Xiao Linglong's footsteps! But I, Shangguan Yanran, swear that in the future you will use an ancient box to lure Tianzong, and I will help you destroy Tianzong! I will never hurt you at all." She swore silently in her heart.

With the mission of the family on her shoulders, she came into contact with Lu Ming because of the secrets in the ancient box.

But she, Shangguan Yanran, also had difficulties in her heart. Her parents died because of the Niushan ancient tomb, and because of a small mistake, they did not check the ancient box carefully before handing it to Shangguan Jinxiu, which eventually caused Shangguan Moyun to be poisoned.

Therefore, it seems unreasonable that his parents cannot enter the ancestral grave of the Shangguan family, but in the big family, the blood is the dominant one, and they have a stricter hierarchy.

Some people, such as Shangguan Fenghuang, were destined not to be reused by the clan because of her parents' background.

And although she, Shangguan Yanran, was a little stronger, she was not a direct descendant of the family, so she was sent to guard the tomb in Shanghai these years.

Lonely and lonely, yearning for the warmth of family and the love of their clansmen, this is where Shangguan Yanran and Xiao Linglong share the same illness.

But at least, she still has the chance to return to the family and be reused by the family, that is not to lie dormant beside Lu Ming, and finally get the secret in the ancient box.

But facing Lu Ming, she dared not tell her mission, and felt a deep sense of guilt in her heart.

Everything finally turned into a long sigh, and a tear rolled down from the corner of Shangguan Yanran's eyes.

She knew that because of her impure purpose, she had already missed the possibility of communicating with Lu Ming.

No longer thinking about it, Shangguan Yanran could only hide this burden in her heart, and bear the grievance and unwillingness silently.

Early the next morning, when the sun rose from the horizon, the icy desert was like a hot furnace for a moment.

"Ready to go!" Outside the tent, Shangguan Yanran shouted softly.

In just a moment, Lu Ming got dressed and crawled out of the tent. While tidying up, he joked, "Woke up so early today? Did you sleep well last night?"

"Well, I slept pretty well." Shangguan Yanran replied.

Lu Ming was startled, and looked at her in surprise. Lu Ming was extremely unaccustomed to her not bickering.

Glaring at him, Shangguan Yanran said: "You are really sick, I don't hate you, you are uncomfortable! Hurry up, Alan is already ready!"

Lu Ming grinned, and immediately felt much more comfortable. Is this what Shangguan Yanran should look like?

Driving forward and continuing on the road, Alan calculated the location of the grandfather's tomb.

She wasn't completely sure, she just calculated the location of their tombs according to the Hu family's ancestral rules and the other party's birth date.

More than ten miles away from Lu Ming's car, an off-road vehicle followed far away, and it was Ge Yun who was suffering from the scorching heat.

"Can you find this? It's been almost two days!" Ge Yun wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at the air-conditioning button on the car, and finally chose to give up.

Their car is not like Lu Ming's modified George Patton chariot, which originally had two huge spare fuel tanks.

At this point, there is not much fuel left in the car. Even if I go back the same way, I'm afraid I won't be able to go back.

Ge Yun said: "We have no way out. Only by beheading Lu Ming and others can we go back safely! Otherwise, if we only need to go back on foot, it only takes a week, and we will be trapped to death in the desert."

"Young master, don't worry! Lu Ming, you must die!" Ge Long, the co-pilot, said solemnly with his eyes closed.

"They stopped!"

Ge Hai, who was looking through the binoculars while driving, suddenly braked and the car stopped.

Ge Yun hurriedly grabbed the binoculars and looked into the distance of the desert. Lu Ming's car had indeed stopped.

"Get ready for action!" Ge Long opened his eyes, opened the car door and jumped down.

The driving target is too big, and it is easy to be discovered by the other party, so the next journey needs to be done on foot.

At this moment, Lu Ming stood in front of the car with his hands behind his back, waiting quietly.

After carefully scouting around, Alan pointed to the sand dune not far away, "According to the calculated coordinates, the tomb of great-grandfather should be within a mile radius of that sand dune!"

"It's so far away!" Shangguan Yanran frowned and said, "Finding a skeleton within a radius of one mile in this desert is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack!"

Hearing this, Lu Ming also frowned and looked at Alan. It is true that the scope is not large, but it is indeed not easy to find a pair of bones buried in the sand.

Alan said confidently, "In half an hour, I will definitely find the entrance to Grandpa's tomb."

grave? !
Shangguan Yanran sneered and said: "I'm just kidding! When your great-grandfather came here to sit for a funeral, with his old arms and legs, he was going to die soon, and he couldn't build a grave for himself!"

"Yes!" Alan said firmly: "Our ancestors were in this business. It is not difficult to build a tomb. As long as we make good use of the favorable terrain, it will take a few days!"

Seeing Alan walking away quickly, as if he was probing for something, Shangguan Yanran looked suspicious.

Lu Ming chuckled softly: "She's right. It seems that the Hu family is in this business. When their ancestors are about to die, they will leave the family with dry food and start to build their own graves! Don't let anyone know. The only thing is to prevent your own grave from being dug up.”

"I feel sorry for them!" Shangguan Yanran also said in a low voice.

This cannot be heard by Alan, otherwise she will be sad and feel inferior.

Sure enough, after a while, Alan waved at Lu Ming and Lu Ming under the sand dunes in the distance.

"found it!"

Lu Ming's face brightened, he picked up the shovel and ran over quickly.

Alan pointed at his feet and said: "There is a layer of soil underground here, which is suitable for building a tomb! The door of the grandfather's tomb must be here, but we must be very careful when digging. There is yellow sand all around. It is very likely that this is a grave. In the quicksand tomb."

For this unfamiliar term, Lu Ming and Shangguan Yanran explained that they did not understand.

Alan explained carefully: "The quicksand tomb is the most ingenious type of tomb, and it is also the most troublesome type for tomb robbers! Its principle is to use the fluidity of the sand to seal up the excavated tomb and tamp the surrounding area to build prison, making the excavation of the robbery very difficult."

"Moreover, quicksand has three main functions: one is to keep the catacombs dry, preserve the corpses, and act as a desiccant; It is difficult to excavate the robbing hole; the third is that once the core tomb is touched by an intruder, quicksand will immediately pour in, making people nowhere to escape."

Hearing this, the two of Lu Ming gasped. This quicksand tomb is really ingenious. If you are not careful, you may be buried alive in it!
