Chapter 110 The Guardian of the Treasure
Chapter 110 The Guard of the Treasure
Back outside the gate, Fatty and the archaeological team members were already waiting impatiently. Fatty had already used the water from the Ziduan River to wash away the sand and dust on his face and neck. Xiao Ran had never seen Fatty since they met.
So refreshing.
Hu Bayi reported the situation inside, and the final point was that although there were a large number of burial objects under the platform, the tomb robbers who came in before did not take any of them. Their style was better than that of our army. There was definitely something wrong here.
He told An Liman again about the curse of Queen Jingjue's treasure, and also said that the thirty-meter-high platform was extremely dangerous. In short, he hoped that the archaeological team would not go down, and sent him, Xiao Ran, Shirley Yang San
All it takes is a reasonably skilled person to go down and take a look.
Professor Chen's attitude this time was surprisingly fierce and resolute. He had spent almost half his life studying the Ghost Cave Clan and the Jingjue Kingdom. How could he not go on when he was so close? Although Hu Bayi and others were stronger than them in terms of physical fitness and adventure experience,
But if you are a layman in archeology, how can you possibly understand archaeological related records, drawings and other work.
Hao Aiguo also frowned, objecting to what Hu Bayi said, "Just take a look," and repeatedly emphasized that this trip was not a tourist trip, but a serious archaeological work. Everyone went on this dangerous journey just to find out the secret of Queen Jingjue
, several students also echoed.
Needless to say, Fatty, of course, I heard that there were so many funerary objects down there, and my ears were almost leaking out.
Xiao Ran originally wanted to use Hu Bayi's point of view and ask others to go down later, but in this case he had to obey the public opinion. Anyway, the burial objects were enough for them to toss for a while, and he could use it in the name of exploring the road.
Let’s go to the Queen’s coffin first and pull her out.
Everyone put their bags back on their backs and carefully moved forward along the downward slope. Xiao Ran and Shirley Yang walked in front of the team, Hu Bayi and Fatty stood behind, and the archaeological team members were protected in the middle, especially those with weak legs and feet.
Professor Chen.
Xiao Ran turned back and took one last look at the gate, and saw that Hu Bayi and Fatty were also discussing something in a low voice, perhaps discussing how to use explosives to blow it open if the gate was closed later.
Xiao Ran hoped from the bottom of his heart that they could indeed return to the original route safely and unharmed.
Walking all the way to the platform, everyone began to prepare the rope ladder on the platform. Hu Bayi repeatedly told the fat man not to take anything with unclean hands and feet, so as not to offend others.
Xiao Ran thought about it again and again, and finally said to the professor: "Professor Chen, the situation below is unknown. For safety reasons, we'd better go down in batches. Our archaeological team will wait above first, and the four of us will go down to explore the way. If it's safe, you guys
Come down again."
Professor Chen was already excitedly prepared, but when Xiao Ran said this, he had no choice but to agree.
After placing the rope ladder, Xiao Ran, Hu Bayi, Shirley Yang, and Fatty went down one after another. Hu Bayi tightened his grip on the assault rifle in his hand and carefully shined a flashlight on the surrounding area.
"It's strange, there are no snakes..." Hu Bayi muttered.
Xiao Ran knew in his heart that Ahan would be late and would not be absent, so he wanted Hu Bayi to relax first. But a breeze swept by, and suddenly a "rustling" came from the piles of treasures.
Could it be that Queen Jingjue was planning to use some kind of curse or magic again? He looked at Hu Bayi, who was looking at the treasure on the ground with fascination.
Just when he was about to persuade Hu Bayi not to be fascinated by these things, the "rustling" sound suddenly sounded again. Hu Bayi shuddered and quickly raised his gun and looked around. Apparently he also heard the sound.
Strange sounds.
Xiao Ran also used his flashlight to shine on the piles of treasures on the ground. The gold, silver and chalcedony reflected the miraculous light. He was actually a little dizzy, and there was a feeling of confusion in his heart. He always wanted to pick up these treasures, or even dive into them.
That feeling is like wanting to put your hand in a rice vat when you see it, but it's dozens or hundreds of times stronger.
Shirley Yang came down from the rope ladder and saw the two of them frozen in place. She was about to ask what happened when she heard a heavy object fall to the ground behind her, followed by the fat man's loud voice: "Ouch! So many good things."
thing!"
His voice was trembling, and he was obviously frightened to the point of losing his mind by the pile of funeral objects of the queen in front of him, but it awoke Xiao Ran from his confusion.
The fat man reached out to grab a jade wine bottle next to him, but Hu Bayi grabbed it and blocked it behind him. Fortunately, Shirley Yang was still observing the situation around him and did not look towards the fat man.
"What the hell did you tell me? You said you couldn't move the things here, so why are you just farting?"
As Hu Bayi spoke, he used his feet to pull the gold and silver objects on the ground, making bursts of noise, covering up his already low voice.
The fat man glanced at Shirley Yang, who had his back turned to him, scratched his head and said: "It's strange, I saw this treasure mountain from above, and I kept reminding myself not to move, but why can't I control my hands?
?”
"Don't make excuses, you are just looking for money, stop looking at it!"
Shirley Yang suddenly turned around and said something very strange: "If these bronze lampstands on the rock wall are sold on the market, they will definitely fetch a good price..."
The three of them looked at each other. Along the way, Shirley Yang never mentioned anything related to money except for the remuneration to a few people. It felt like a person who breathes every day and would not deliberately say how much air he breathed today, because
She is not short of money.
But now her tone is similar to that of an ordinary citizen. It seems that this pile of funerary objects is really poisonous...
Several people quickly took a few steps forward and left the piles of funerary objects. At this moment, a voice suddenly came from above: "Leader Hu! Miss Yang! I'm coming down!"
Hu Bayi quickly raised his flashlight and saw Chu Jian climbing down from the rope ladder.
"Didn't I tell you not to come down first?" Hu Bayi shouted.
Chu Jian replied hesitantly: "It's not us... I'm the only one. The professor asked me to come down and help... help you..."
The fat man quietly smiled at Xiao Ran and said, "The old professor is worried that Miss Yang is the only one here, so he sent a follower down."
Chu Jian climbed to the end of the rope ladder, and suddenly his foot fell, falling from the rope ladder and falling into the pile of treasures. There was a loud "crash" sound, and it was obvious that something broke.
The fat man patted his thigh in distress, even though he might not be able to take any of these things with him.
Chu Jian screamed, reached down his body, took out a broken earthenware jar, and threw it aside. Xiao Ran and others went over to help him up, and saw a half-eye mark on the broken earthenware jar.
.
He felt something was strange. Whenever the symbol of this eye appeared, it was inseparable from the queen. And why was there a clay pot in this priceless treasure pile?
The "rustling" sound sounded again, but this time it was clearer and more dispersed, as if it was right under their feet.
"What is this?!" Shirley Yang suddenly exclaimed.
I saw a lot of insect eggs the size of corn kernels on the clothes on Chu Jian's back. Under his body where he just fell, more insect eggs were squirming, and those sounds were coming from the insect eggs.
Everyone was hurriedly swatting away the eggs, and their hearts were filled with excitement.
Soul-locking Lingzhu suddenly said: "Go quickly! You have awakened the guards of the Queen's treasure!"
Chapter completed!
