Below?
Hearing this, everyone present was stunned.
But then they finally remembered that Li Ningrou seemed to have disappeared nearby.
Moreover, those corpse beetles seemed to have triggered some hidden mechanism.
If that was the case, did that mean that Li Ningrou had already been injured by those zombie beetles?
With this thought in mind, the group quickly began to move.
Fortunately, they quickly found the secret compartment.
However, when they flipped over the floor of the secret compartment, the situation below was a little confusing.
He saw that under the floor, there was a catacomb leading down.
However, there was no one inside.
What was going on?
"Professor Wang, are you sure she disappeared here?”Thinking of the key point, Team Leader Liu couldn't help but ask.
"It can't be wrong." Professor Wang nodded and said,"It looks like this should be the place, but Ning Rou is missing.”
Hearing this, everyone frowned.
"Could it be that she left from here?”" As far as I know," Professor Li suddenly said," there are usually many tunnels in a tomb like the First Emperor's Mausoleum. There are even roads that lead directly to the tomb.”
"If Ning Rou can't wait for help here, it's indeed possible for her to go forward alone.”
Hearing this, everyone understood.
But at this moment…
"Professor Wang, look at these footprints!”Team Leader Liu looked around and immediately found some complicated footprints on the ground.
When everyone looked over, they saw some marks on the ground.
Moreover, it looked like it was left behind by a woman's shoe.
"It's Ning Rou!" Li Chuanfeng immediately recognized his daughter's footprints.
Hearing this, Team Leader Liu quickly followed the footprints and said,"These footprints seem to be heading into the tomb. Did she really go in alone?”
"No!" But at this moment, Professor Wang said,"It shouldn't be just her, because other than her footprints, there are also these.”
Following his guidance, everyone looked over.
However, when they saw it, their eyes widened.
This was because they suddenly saw that not far from Li Ningrou's footprints, there were also some footprints that seemed to be left behind by a large beast.
Although it was very shallow, it just meant that the thing had just passed by not long ago.
Moreover, these footprints were side by side with Li Ningrou's footprints.
This meant that they had entered the depths of the tomb together.
" How is this possible?!" Seeing this, Li Chuanfeng was the first to exclaim.
It was impossible.
Such a large footprint must be some kind of large predator.
It would be very dangerous for his daughter to be with such a thing.
But at this moment, Professor Li suddenly spoke.
"Aren't these the footprints we saw at the entrance of the underground palace?”He took out the photo and compared it with the photo. He immediately exclaimed.
Professor Wang nodded.
That was right.
From the beginning, he was curious as to why there were so many footprints in the First Emperor's mausoleum.
Now, it seemed that something must have entered the tomb.
But why did that thing enter the tomb with Li Ningrou?
Could it be…
"Old Li, do you still remember the roar that helped us chase away the zombie beetles?”Professor Wang suddenly said.
Hearing this, the others looked over.
Seeing that everyone did not understand, Professor Li explained,"As far as I know, there are usually divine beasts guarding the tombs of the Warring States Period like the tomb of the First Emperor.”
"That kind of divine beast can ward off evil and avoid evil. It's also a symbol of good fortune and won't hurt people. On the contrary, if there were people who entered the tomb by mistake, they would help them survive.”
"But on the contrary, if grave robbers want to come in and rob the tombs, they will transform into divine beasts guarding the tombs and chase away all those who want to rob the tombs!”
Hearing this, everyone came to a realization.
No wonder the grave robbers they saw before seemed to have been bitten to death by wild beasts.
However, Li Ningrou wasn't killed on the spot. Instead, the two footprints were placed side by side.
Could it be that the tomb guardian beast thought that Li Ningrou had entered the tomb by mistake?
"But how is that possible?" Hearing this, Li Chuanfeng was the first to express his disbelief.
This was too absurd.
"Then can you help me explain the corpse beetles we encountered before?”Professor Li suddenly retorted.
He was extremely excited.
Because his lifelong dream was to prove whether those legendary creatures really existed.
"No matter what, if the tomb guardian divine beast really exists, we can only pray that Ning Rou is safe.”Professor Wang pointed at the footprints on the ground.
No matter what, the footprints were solid evidence.
"Team Leader Liu, I'll have to trouble you guys next. "We want to continue exploring the First Emperor's mausoleum. Firstly, we want to save Ning Rou, and at the same time, we want to prove whether the Tomb Suppressing Beast exists.”
"I understand. Saving people is more important!" Team Leader Liu didn't really believe in the Gravekeeper Beast either.
However, he was a police officer.
As the saying went, human lives were at stake.
Thus, they continued walking forward.
Fortunately, the tomb was still spacious.
Three to five people walking side by side didn't seem crowded. At the same time, because there were people from National Geography following them along the way, the current scene was also broadcast live on the Internet.
"D * mn, is there really a divine beast in the First Emperor's mausoleum?”
"To be more specific, it should be a Grave-Suppressing Beast!”
"Originally, I thought that this episode would end just like that. I didn't expect there to be an Easter egg?”
"This time, the country is taking action. We'll just follow behind and watch.”
"F * ck, there's actually a Grave-Suppressing Beast in the First Emperor's mausoleum. This is too f * cking unbelievable!”
At this moment, the netizens on the Internet were getting more and more excited.
After all, they had previously initiated a discussion about the tomb suppression beast.
Now, following the archeological team deeper into the tomb and finding so many suspicious clues, who wouldn't be curious?
