Everyone looked at the entrance of the cave and became excited.
"Professor Chen, Old Hu and I will go in first to see if there's any danger.”After saying that, Xiang Qian called Old Hu and the two of them walked into the passageway.
Not far from the underground passage, they could already hear the faint sound of running water.
"Xiao Xiang, Xiao Hu, how is it inside?!”Professor Chen's voice came from outside.
"There's nothing wrong at the moment. You guys can come down!”Xiang Qian replied to Professor Chen.
When Professor Chen and the others heard Xiang Qian's words, they hurriedly walked into the passage. Fatty was the first to rush in impatiently.
Fatty came to Xiang Qian and Old Hu, who were waiting for everyone, and whispered,"Mr. Xiang, Old Hu, how much gold, silver, and jewelry do you think there are inside? Are we going to be rich? I didn't manage to get anything along the way. I must get more this time. I…"
"Alright, keep your voice down. Don't let Professor Chen and the others hear you.”Old Hu stopped Fatty, who was about to continue, because Professor Chen and the others had already come over.
"Professor Chen, you guys follow behind me and Lord Xiang. Don't be careful and don't touch anything. Be careful of traps.”Old Hu gave Professor Chen a few instructions before leading the way with Xiang Qian.
Everyone walked to the front of the underground river, filled it with some water, and swam across the underground river to continue walking.
After crossing the underground river for a while, a tall stone door appeared on the stone wall ahead.
Xiang Qian and Old Hu knew that they were about to enter the ancient tomb, which meant that they would encounter danger at any time. Xiang Qian turned around and said to Fatty and Chu Jian worriedly,"Fatty, Chu Jian, we are about to enter the ancient tomb. For everyone's safety, you must control your hands and not touch anything, okay?”
Chu Jian agreed embarrassedly after hearing Xiang Qian's words. Professor Chen also promised Xiang Qian that he would keep an eye on the archaeological team.
Fatty wanted to say something when he heard Xiang Qian's words, but he was rebuked by Old Hu.
"Don't talk! Think about how many dangerous things have happened because of you?!”
Seeing that Fatty had become obedient, Xiang Qian and Old Hu went forward and began to look for the mechanism to open the stone door.
Old Hu used the knowledge from his family's half of the " 16 Words Feng Shui Secret Skill " to find the mechanism on the lamp holders on both sides of the stone door.
He opened the mechanism and the stone door slowly opened.
Xiang Qian and the others walked through the stone door and carefully passed through the long tomb passage. At the end of the tomb passage, an open cave appeared. In the middle of the cave was a big pit, which was filled with gold coins, gold, silver, and jewelry from the Ancient Western Regions.
When Fatty saw the pile of gold, silver, and jewelry, his eyes were straight. He had forgotten what Old Hu and Xiang Qian had said to him. He took out a rope and was about to go into the pit to store the things.
"Fatty!" Old Hu grabbed Fatty.
"What? It's not Old Hu. So many gold, silver, and jewelry are placed in front of us, and we can only look at them?! It's fine if we take some. It's been so hard on the way here. I won't say anything to Professor Chen and the others!”Fatty wanted to convince Old Hu.
Old Hu shook his head. Didn't you see that Lord Xiang didn't even move? He had just entered, and the good stuff was still behind. Don't lose big for small things.”
Professor Chen brought the archeological team to the pit and was amazed by the gold, silver, and jewelry in the pit.
"This should be the money that Queen Jingjue obtained from the surrounding affiliated kingdoms. Chu Jian, hurry! Get the rope ready. Let's go down and take a look.”Professor Chen instructed Chu Jian.
Chu Jian fixed the rope and everyone climbed down the pit.
"These belong to the country. No one is allowed to hide them, understand?!”Professor Chen instructed everyone and began to organize the archaeological team to record their findings.
Xiang Qian and Old Hu also followed Professor Chen and listened to his explanation. These were all archaeological knowledge that would be very helpful for future tomb visits, so Xiang Qian and Old Hu listened very carefully.
At this moment, Professor Hao shouted,""Comrade Xiao Wang! What are you doing?"
Everyone looked over. It turned out that Fatty saw that everyone was recording something. He took a few gold coins when everyone was not paying attention and was discovered by Professor Hao who turned around.
"I…I…I just wanted to take a look. I wanted to keep it as a souvenir.”Fatty stuttered.
"Comrade Xiao Wang, these are all the country's. How can you hide them for personal reasons? How was this any different from those thieves and grave robbers?”Professor Chen walked up to Fatty and said in a deep tone.
"Fatty, put it back." Old Hu and Xiang Qian also walked to Fatty's side and said to him.
Fatty put down the gold coins and followed behind Xiang Qian and Fatty. They followed Professor Chen's archaeological team to record.
Everyone recorded in the pit for a while before Professor Chen said,"Alright, that's the gist of it. Remember the location and continue the inspection in the future. Let's continue walking. These are all the funerary objects of Queen Jingjue, which means that we are very close to her main tomb.”
The group climbed up the pit and went around the edge.
"Hey, Old Hu, you said that there should be a lot of people who have been here from the entrance? Why didn't anyone touch these gold, silver, and jewelry?”Xiang Qian asked Old Hu.
"I don't know, but this place is definitely not simple. There might be some unknown danger.”When Old Hu heard Xiang Qian's words, he became even more careful.
Everyone went around the pit and another passage appeared in front of them. The stone door of this passage had already been opened and was supported by a stone statue.
The group carefully walked into the long passage. At the end of the passage was a huge abyss. There was a narrow stone path on the side of the stone wall, winding up. At the end of the path was a small platform, one end of the small platform extended above the middle of the abyss.
The platform was more than three meters wide and more than ten meters long. A round log with a diameter of more than two meters and a length of more than ten meters was tied to the platform. This round log was the legendary Kunlun Divine Wood.
There was a huge wooden coffin placed at the front of the Divine Wood of Kunlun. There was also a flower-shaped creature on the coffin, the Corpse Fragrant Kojac.
Professor Chen looked at the abyss in front of him and exclaimed,"So the legend is actually true! This should be the Ghost Cave guarded by the Abyssal Race. It was said that this Abyss Ghost Cave was connected to an Otherworld!”
"Virtual space?" Xiang Qian interjected.
"Yes, according to the legends, this place is connected to another world.”
Professor Chen looked at the bottomless abyss and continued Xiang Qian's words,"Let's go. We'll follow the path and take a look. That coffin should be Queen Jing Jue's coffin.”
As he spoke, Professor Chen took the lead and walked up the path. At this moment, all Professor Chen could think of was to see the true appearance of the Queen of Jingjue.
