Cao Ning stood on the roof of the three teaching buildings in Area B!
The wasteland downstairs that was originally overgrown with weeds has now been replaced by dark green military tents.
There are many more sentries on duty in the surrounding area.
Various large-scale exploration equipment has also been shipped
Inside the tent in the center at this moment
An old man in his sixties with a white beard was carefully observing the broken pieces he had picked up from the entrance of the robbery cave.
Inside the tent, there was also a young man dressed as a young scholar.
"Professor, Li Gong and the others have been down there all day, and they still can't be contacted. Could something have happened?"
The young man was lying on the camp bed, unable to sleep.
His name is Chen Feng, he is a top student at Qingbei University
As soon as he graduated, he worked in the cultural relics unit of Northern Jiangsu Province.
The old man in front of him was Wan Guodong, a double-degree professor in the Department of Archeology of Qingbei University.
This time he happened to be doing research at the Northern Jiangsu Provincial Cultural Relics Bureau.
I heard that a tomb from two thousand years ago had been discovered in Jiangning City, so I followed it there.
Because he is older
Therefore, Li Changgong, deputy director of the Cultural Relics Bureau, refused to take him to the grave during the day.
He also escaped death
Wan Guodong put down the magnifying glass in his hand and sighed.
"Lao Li is still too impatient.
If they rush to the grave without knowing the situation, I think they must be in trouble."
"Then what should we do? Professor, should we immediately organize people to go to the tomb again?" Chen Feng sat up excitedly.
Wan Guodong shook his head: "Judging from the video sent back during the day, there should be some unknown creature inside.
If we continue rashly now, we may end up with the same result as Lao Li and others.
I have contacted the army and they will send someone to assist.
Now I just hope that Lao Li and the others can hold on."
"Professor, could it be a corpse?" Chen Feng whispered.
"..."
Wan Guodong frowned slightly and wanted to scold Chen Feng, but held back.
"Xiao Chen, we are all cultural relic workers and staunch atheists.
Don't talk about ghosts and gods.
I think it might be something derived from corpse turtles or something like that.”
Chen Feng lowered his head, "I know Professor, I will never say such things again."
"Well, go to bed early. People from the army will be here tomorrow morning. We will rely on their help then."
"Okay, Professor!"
...
On the other side, Cao Ning has been observing the movements in the tent.
After the tent lights go out
Cao Ning took out the soul bag and released Lu Hongying inside
"Owner!"
Lu Hongying turned into a ball of red mist, floating in the air
Then it quickly condenses into a human form at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Compared to the previous lonely ghost appearance,
Lu Hongying is obviously much more spiritual now.
Not only has the resentment on his face dissipated, but his strength and cultivation have also improved.
Put on a red costume and red dress, and put on a high bun
She looks like an antique beauty.
Cao Ning nodded: "I called you out because I want to ask you if you know about the mummy below?"
"Mummy?"
Lu Hongying thought for a while and shook her head.
"Master, the ancient tomb underground is guarded by a large formation. I have tried several times to find out, but I have never been able to enter."
"But I heard from the old Taoist priest that there is a burial pit under the Robber's Cave. The Yin Qi is so strong that ordinary people will be obsessed by the Yin Qi within five seconds of entering it."
"It is said that the mummy was dressed as a general, wearing armor and holding a bronze sword in his hand. He was guarding the entrance to the tomb."
She heard all this from the old Taoist priest.
Her strength is not enough to break through the formation
"General? That's interesting!"
Cao Ning muttered, then looked at Lu Hongying: "Do you have the guts to come down with me?"
"I..."
Lu Hongying looked embarrassed, but she still accepted.
She is now with Cao Ning. If something bad happens to Cao Ning,
She will also be in a state of panic.
"Hongying is willing to go with the master!"
Cao Ning smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, grab my arm so that I won't be blocked by the formation."
Lu Hongying nodded, then hugged Cao Ning's arms tightly with both hands.
"Ahem, cough...there's no need to be so exaggerated. It's comfortable, but it's also quite cold." Cao Ning said awkwardly.
"Um...is the master cold?"
Lu Hongying did not react!
On the contrary, I think Cao Ning is a little cold.
So my arms were buried deeper!
"Forget it, let's go!" Cao Ning shook his head helplessly.
He jumped up and turned into a laser beam that shot into the robbery cave.
It only takes a few seconds
Cao Ning came to the burial pit that Lu Hongying just mentioned.
Unlike the messy mass graves on TV
This is more like a square in front of the palace gate
There is a dark black bronze cauldron in the open space in front of the hall.
There are several corpses of modern humans in the cauldron
varying degrees
Some corpses have turned into white bones, and some don't even have corpse spots on their bodies.
It seems that they should be the archaeologists who Wan Guodong said went to the pit during the day.
But now they have no vital signs.
Cao Ning carefully felt the surroundings and did not notice the soul of the deceased.
It seems that they were forcibly dispersed for some reason.
"Who among you dare to break into the royal mausoleum of our Dajing Kingdom?"
"???"
Cao Ning frowned slightly, wary of his surroundings
"Master, he is the one who is talking!"
Lu Hongying pointed to the coffin in front of the palace and said.
That's a stone coffin
There are strange patterns carved on it
Ivory words were carved on the coffin lid like runes.
boom!
The coffin lid, which weighed a thousand kilograms, suddenly flipped up in the air.
Immediately after, a figure wearing exquisite armor sat up from inside the coffin.
"What's going on in the past few years? Why do people always come down to disturb His Highness? Well, then just stay."
The mummy jumped up
The black yin energy on his body spread out in an instant
The tomb chamber was quickly filled
I saw his withered iron hand bent into a bow shape
The bronze sword in the hand of a stone statue not far away flew directly into his hand.
Only then did Cao Ning fully see the appearance of the mummy.
It was a completely dry corpse, two meters tall, with a heavy back and a muscular body.
Under the dark red armor, the dried skin is like the bark of a thousand-year-old elm tree.
Ordinary blades can't hurt it at all.
The violent Yin Qi cannot dissipate for a long time
The face under the helmet has been covered by black Yin Qi.
"I wonder who it is. It turns out they are just a young boy and a group of undead. With such little ability, they dare to break into the royal tomb of our Jingguo family."
"In that case, let's stay!"
The mummy’s voice is hoarse and rich
Coupled with the gloomy environment
It's so horrifying to hear
"How unreasonable, how dare you mock my master."
Lu Hongying was so angry that she just wanted to go up and teach him a lesson, but was stopped by Cao Ning.
Cao Ning can tell
This mummy is extremely sinister
His strength will definitely not be inferior to that of the Ghost King
