Chapter 122 The Queen is still alive?

The engineer shovel had penetrated the flower stamen, and dark green viscous juice flowed out from the center of the flower stamen, dripping down the handle of the shovel and onto the ground.

Thinking of the feeling like being put in a steamer with the lid on, Xiao Ran still had lingering fears. He took the kettle from the fat man's hand, took two sips, and poured the water on his face. He didn't feel hot at all.

, it’s just this controllable coolness that makes him feel safe.

"Drink slowly, don't choke again. Drinking the water from the Ziduan River will make your heart feel cold."

The fat man grinned at Xiao Ran. Xiao Ran never thought that he would be like now, seeing this fat face be so friendly.

Hu Bayi also drank some water, sat up unsteadily, looked at Xiao Ran and said with a blank expression: "I... Gawa... no, I dreamed..."

Although he seemed to have just woken up from a coma, Hu Bayi's eyes were filled with excitement.

Perhaps in Hu Bayi's dream, he finally rescued Gawa, and in addition to the previous bombing of the nine-story demon tower, burying the Dapu ghost insect alive, destroying the suture monster, etc., he finally cured the trauma he suffered in Kunlun Mountain.

sequelae.

Xiao Ran was very pleased that this busy work was finally not wasted.

"Just...what happened?"

Xiao Ran took a few breaths and asked everyone nearby.

Everyone looked at each other, and Professor Chen said: "Just now you kidnapped Patriot and the others, you and Xiao Hu were in a daze at the corpse-scented konjac, and then you started swinging around with shovels. Comrade Xiao Wang and Shirley were afraid that you would accidentally hurt each other.

, the shot knocked down Xiao Hu’s shovel first, and Xiao Hu suddenly fainted.

You moved too fast and couldn't aim accurately for a while, so we had to pull Xiao Hu back first. Later, you walked over by yourself while waving the shovel and talking nonsense, and Comrade Xiao Wang had the opportunity to hug you. After that, you

He threw the shovel towards the corpse-scented konjac and fainted. That corpse-scented konjac, it was really..."

The fat man then said: "It is really a scourge and must be abolished."

Xiao Ran asked hurriedly: "How long has it been since Brother Hu and I were confused by it?"

Professor Chen said: "It didn't take long, probably only a few minutes."

Xiao Ran let out a long sigh of relief. This is also consistent with the principle of dreaming. Although a day and a night seem to have passed in the dream, the flow of time in the dream is much faster than in reality.

Xiao Ran said to Professor Chen: "Professor Chen, this thing is too dangerous. Even for the safety of the future archaeological team, it is best to eradicate it. No matter how rare it is,..."

Professor Chen didn't let Xiao Ran speak any more. He raised his hand to stop Xiao Ran and said, "I understand that I can't be too selfish and turn a blind eye to the danger you just encountered just for the sake of my own research. Fortunately, everyone is safe, and so are you.

It has been eliminated. Shirley had already taken photos of it before, which was enough to write a research report."

Xiao Ran looked along Professor Chen's fingers and saw that as the dark green thick juice of the corpse-scented konjac flower continued to flow out, the originally emerald green and bright red petals and leaves had gradually turned black and withered.

With a "bang" sound, the shovel inserted into the stamens fell to the ground, and the withered flowers also fell to the ground. Only the green stems of the corpse-scented konjac remained connected to the Kunlun sacred tree, which were still strong and full of vitality.

Xiao Ran felt a little uneasy in his heart and said to Professor Chen: "I feel that this thing is not completely dead, and that coffin..."

At this time, Hu Bayi's body had recovered, and Shirley Yang also came over. The professor looked at the people in front of him and sighed: "We found Jingjue Ancient City by mistake along the way. There are also some people on the way.

Only with your help can we reach the tomb of Queen Jingjue without any danger. I think

Understand, we, the two generations, have tried our best to uncover the mystery of the Jingjue Ancient Kingdom and the Guidong Clan. Now that we are here, we should do what we should do. You can follow your own ideas, just

I hope you guys can pay attention to your safety, I'm afraid we nerds won't be able to get close to you."

The three members of the archaeological team also recovered at this time. Hao Aiguo raised his head and said to Professor Chen: "Professor, once the coffin is opened, the remains inside may be destroyed..."

The professor shook his head: "The climate here has not changed for thousands of years, and Queen Jingjue used the Kunlun sacred wood to make the coffin to keep the body from decaying. If we leave without doing anything, it will be a good thing for us personally and for the archaeological cause.

It’s the biggest regret.”

Having said this, no one said anything else. Except for the fat man who was full of excitement, everyone else was full of their own thoughts.

Ye Yixin untied the other three people, Xiao Ran and Hu Bayi. Fatty packed up all his equipment and prepared to move towards the Kunlun sacred tree on the stone beam again. Shirley Yang stood behind the three people with an assault rifle to protect the archaeological team.

At the same time, he supported Xiao Ran and the others.

The three of them walked up the stone beam, and Xiao Ran looked down with his flashlight. Under the stone beam, a dark cave could be vaguely seen. There should have been a large number of black snakes living in it, but there was no movement at the moment.

In this case, we should seize the time to open the coffin and see what the exquisite queen in the Kunlun sacred tree is.

Xiao Ran took a look at the corpse-scented konjac with its rhizome still thick and green. Now that the devil's flower was quiet, Xiao Ran always felt that there was something strange about it.

Hu Bayi carefully inspected the Kunlun Sacred Tree with a flashlight and found a gap. It seemed that this was the junction between the coffin lid and the coffin body.

"This chain is too thick. We can only push the coffin lid vertically forward. Please be careful later so as not to slip and fall."

After Hu Bayi finished his instructions, the three of them put their hands on one end of the coffin lid and shouted chants to push the coffin lid forward.

"One, two, push! One, two, push!"

The weight of the natural coffin lid was much lighter than Xiao Ran imagined. The three of them pushed together and moved the coffin lid a large amount without much force.

Xiao Ran shined a flashlight into the coffin of the Kunlun Sacred Tree. Inside, there was a coffin full of red liquid, as dark red and transparent as red wine.

In the liquid, there are scattered many jade pieces similar to the jade eyes in the temple. There are also some perforations and lines of unknown material on the edges. It seems that something similar to the jade clothes with golden threads has fallen apart.

Apart from that, there was nothing else. There were no other burial objects of gold, stone, jewels, and no corpse of the queen.

"Suspect Tomb?"

"Is this thing worth anything?"

The voices of Hu Bayi and Fatty sounded at the same time. Fatty looked at the jade pieces in the coffin liquid and reached out to grab it, but Hu Bayi stopped him.

Xiao Ran put his hand on the fragment in his abdomen and listened carefully, but still didn't sense anything similar. It seemed that the fragment of Faqiu Seal was indeed not in the coffin of the Kunlun Sacred Tree.

Then there is only one question, where is the Queen's body?

He secretly asked the soul-locking spirit bead: "Why is the queen's body not in the coffin? Can you sense her soul?"

Soul-locking Lingzhu's voice was slightly trembling: "I can't hear it...but her power is nearby, very powerful...she...is not dead..."

Queen Jingjue is still alive?!

"Watch your side!"

Shirley Yang suddenly shouted loudly and at the same time pulled the trigger in her hand.

Xiao Ran turned to look at the corpse-scented konjac. The bullets from the assault rifle were stuck on its skin, unable to penetrate it at such a close distance. At this time, it was squirming with its thick belly-like stem, as if there was something there.

, to emerge from the fracture where the flower withered.
