Seeing the green light, the faces of all the archeologists changed.
It turned pale.
At this moment, they had already become birds that were frightened by the twang of a bow. The slightest movement of grass and wind made them afraid.
Not to mention the strange scene of a large green light suddenly appearing in front of him.
Only Professor Chen could barely maintain his composure. He said in a low voice,"It should be some fluorescent algae. This kind of plant often grows in this kind of water cave.”
Although Professor Chen said that, his trembling lips revealed the fear in his heart.
However, this was not his fault. After all, there were too many strange things in this water cave.
Even with his vast knowledge, he had never experienced such a scene before.
He couldn't figure out what was in front of him.
Fortunately, his words had an effect.
When the people on the raft heard this, although they still had doubts on their faces, their hearts calmed down a little.
At the very least, he could control the raft to move forward normally.
Before the raft could enter the depths of the cave, a foul smell suddenly drifted out.
"So smelly!"
"What's this smell? It's going to kill me!”
"What a disgusting smell. Where did it come from?”
As soon as they smelled the smell, the archaeologists on the raft immediately frowned and covered their noses.
Some people were even vomiting from the smell.
Everyone started to discuss the smell.
When Professor Chen heard the discussion, he frowned and said,"This smell is the stench of corpses! Only corpses that had decayed and piled up would emit such a special smell!”
"Moreover, I'm afraid there are quite a number of corpses. Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a strong smell.”
"I'm afraid that the depths of this cave is a burial pit for slaves.”
Professor Chen had been an archaeologist for many years and had seen countless ancient corpses.
Therefore, he knew that this smell was from an old corpse.
Moreover, according to his judgment, it was very likely that the burial pit was in front of them. Otherwise, there would not be so many corpses.
When the others heard this, they frowned even more.
A terrifying creature like the zombie bug had appeared in the ordinary waterway just now.
No one knew what terrifying things would be born in the burial pit ahead!
Thinking of this, these people could not help but secretly raise their vigilance.
Some of them even held daggers in their hands for self-defense, so that they could be prepared if they really encountered something.
While everyone was still thinking, the raft had already passed through the narrow passage and entered the middle of a cave.
When they reached this point, everyone finally saw that the green light was actually the light emitted by the corpses on both sides!
The corpses on the ground were all green, and it was impossible to tell if they were humans or animals.
However, although these corpses looked very disgusting.
However, they were piled up very neatly. It seemed that they had been piled up by someone.
From time to time, there would be huge bugs crawling out of the corpses.
There were no less than a thousand corpses on both sides of the river!
Seeing so many corpses, everyone felt their scalps go numb.
"Look!"
Suddenly, a scream came from the crowd.
Following the direction of the voice, everyone saw a crystal coffin embedded in the stone wall through the light of the wildfire!
A woman in a white feather robe lay in the transparent crystal coffin!
Professor Chen looked at the crystal coffin and said,""This woman's body was actually placed in a crystal coffin and hung on the wall.”
"Looks like his status wasn't low when he was alive. Coupled with the feather clothes he wore, he should have been buried here with the priest who presided over the funeral!”
Professor Chen was a veteran in the field of archaeology, so he knew all kinds of historical knowledge like the back of his hand.
Therefore, he had a rough understanding of the female corpse's identity at a glance.
As the raft continued to move forward, it soon approached the crystal coffin.
Professor Chen also gradually saw the exact situation of the female corpse.
Just as Professor Chen was about to study it carefully, he suddenly frowned.
"The feather clothes worn by the female corpse should be of the style of the Western Zhou Dynasty.”
"It's been thousands of years since Western Zhou. How did this female corpse become immortal?”
Hearing Professor Chen's question, the archeological team finally reacted.
The corpse of the woman in the crystal coffin did not rot!
Instead, it was preserved perfectly!
He could even see her beautiful side profile!
It was like a living person.
This made everyone confused for a moment. How was this done?
Even a piece of iron would turn into a pile of dregs after thousands of years.
However, the corpse did not change at all.
He had never seen such a situation before. This was the first time.
They had a premonition that if they were to clarify this matter, it would definitely be a shocking discovery!
They would even leave their names in the history of archaeology!
Thinking of this, these people's breathing became heavier and heavier. They began to stare at the crystal coffin and study it.
"There's also a crystal coffin here!"
At this moment, a shout suddenly came from the side.
Everyone turned their heads in the direction of the voice. Sure enough, there was a similar crystal coffin on the other wall.
However, this crystal coffin was empty…
