Upon hearing Zhang Hao's words, the archeologists immediately began to scan the surroundings excitedly.
He discovered that they were currently on a large, empty flat ground. There was nothing around them that blocked their path.
This was a good place to bury people. Because there were no rocks or special terrain, it was very convenient to dig a tomb.
However, they did not see any signs of the tomb.
In the past, whenever a large tomb was discovered, a divine gate and divine path would be built outside, and soldiers and stone figurines would be buried with it.
This was a preparation for the tomb owner to be led to heaven after his death.
The terracotta warriors were also used to guard the tomb and disperse the invading beasts or tomb raiders.
However, there was nothing here at the moment. There was not even a single stone residue.
There was no sign of a tomb at all, or rather, there was no sign of a tomb at all.
This made everyone confused and looked at Zhang Hao in confusion.
"Lil Hao, there's no sign outside. Are you sure the tomb is here?”Professor Chen asked.
Even with his eyesight, he could not see any traces of a tomb here.
"The tomb specifications of the Western Zhou Dynasty are different from other periods," Zhang Hao said slowly.”
"Because the tomb culture hasn't matured yet, there's no fixed scale and shape, so we can't see anything from the outside.”
"However, according to the direction of the dragon vein, this tomb is under our feet.”
As he spoke, Zhang Hao took out a few metal spikes with screw threads from behind him.
This was a tool used during archeology for geological exploration and soil samples.
Zhang Hao twisted the iron spike together through the screw, then stabbed the sharp end into the ground and nailed it into the soil.
After the entire iron spike was inserted into the soil, it was pulled out abruptly.
The threads on the iron spike also brought out the underground soil.
"There really is a tomb below!" Professor Chen said excitedly after carefully checking the soil sample brought up by the metal drill.
When ancient tombs were built, the soil used to seal them was different from ordinary soil.
It was mixed with glutinous rice and eggs. After solidifying, the soil was very hard, comparable to cement, and could protect the tomb well.
Other than that, it would also be mixed with deworming medicine and the feces of wild beasts to drive away poisonous insects, snakes, and ants. It would also be used to destroy the tomb chamber with large beasts.
Therefore, one could tell if there was a tomb underground by looking at the soil.
Hearing this, the other archeologists became even more excited and were even prepared to start digging.
It had to be known that the archaeological industry in the Dragon Country was weak to begin with, so there were very few large tombs discovered. There were even fewer tombs from the Western Zhou Dynasty.
And now, there was one in front of them. How could they not be excited!
However, it was already afternoon when they came out of the water cave.
He spent half a day looking for the exact location of the tomb.
Therefore, the sky was already dark.
Moreover, after the continuous flipping of the water cave, their bodies were already very tired.
Many of them were still injured and were not suitable for high-intensity work.
After much consideration, they decided to set up camp nearby and rest for the night before proceeding with the excavation work the next day.
After making the decision, the team of archaeologists began to move quickly.
Some of them were responsible for cooking while the others were assembling tents on the spot.
Just as everyone was immersed in excitement, Zhang Hao frowned and stared at the soil brought up by Iron Stake.
He saw that there were traces of scarlet in the soil brought up by the tip of the iron spike.
It was as if it had been stained with blood, and it was emitting a faint stench.
This was the symbol of the Bloody Corpse Grounds!
It was recorded in the 16-word Yin-Yang Feng Shui secret technique that the tomb soil was soaked in blood, and the blood corpse protected the treasure. It was extremely ominous!
After seeing the bloody tomb soil, Zhang Hao had a premonition that this tomb would not be so easy to enter.
........
Although most of the archeologists were researchers, they were very active because they conducted research in the wild all year round.
In just a short while, the camp was set up and the food was cooked.
A group of archeologists sat around the bonfire and ate while excitedly discussing the tomb tomorrow.
Zhang Hao didn't join them in the discussion. Instead, he sat in a corner to conserve his energy.
At this moment, a round figure suddenly approached Zhang Hao and whispered,""Brother Hao, you're not used to the dry food they baked, right?”
"I have jerky here. You can eat two pieces to deal with it.”
After saying that, he stuffed the jerky into Zhang Hao's hand, then sat down beside Zhang Hao and began to mumble.
"Let me tell you, Brother Hao, I'm not used to those dry rations either, so I can bring a lot of jerky. If you want to eat it, just let me know.”
"In the end, it's still the meat that smells good. Eating a mouthful of this is much better than eating a pile of dry rations.”
Zhang Hao looked at him strangely as he listened to the figure's nagging.
He was familiar with this person. He was also a member of the archeological team.
However, he was only familiar and had never spoken to him before. He did not even know his name and had no contact with him at all.
Therefore, Zhang Hao was very curious. Why did this person come looking for him?
When the man saw Zhang Hao's strange gaze, he grinned and said,""Brother Hao, my name is Wang Shengli. Professor Chen calls me Little Fatty. You can call me Fatty.”
"Brother Hao, you're really awesome! Fatty, I'm impressed by this kind of capable person! I'll follow you from now on."
"Don't worry, although Fatty doesn't have your skills and abilities, he's also experienced in hundreds of battles. He definitely won't be a burden.”
As he spoke, he patted his chest, indicating that he was very sturdy.
With just one slap, it stirred up a wave of flesh.
Zhang Hao almost laughed out loud when he saw the fatty's actions. He suppressed his laughter and said,"It's not that easy to follow me.”
When the fatty heard that there was a chance, he immediately smiled and said,"I know the rules. As long as Brother Hao leads me, I'll do all the dirty work in the future.”
Fatty knew very well that a person like Zhang Hao would definitely soar in the future.
As the saying goes, once a person attains the Tao, chickens and dogs will ascend to heaven. As long as he can follow Zhang Hao, when Zhang Hao becomes rich in the future, how can he be inferior to him!
Thinking of this, the smile on Fatty's face became even wider, and his entire body was almost stuck to Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao thought about it carefully.
However, he was still a true person and was much stronger than those villains who pretended to be fake.
Moreover, he was fat and strong. Bringing him along would also be a help.
So he nodded and said,"Alright, you can follow me for the time being."”
Hearing this, Fatty's eyes lit up and he spun around excitedly.
Seeing this, Zhang Hao said indifferently," Don't be happy too early. The tomb tomorrow is not simple. If you want to really follow me, you have to come out alive first."”
Hearing this, Fatty was shocked. He had seen Zhang Hao's ability before.
Therefore, he knew that the place that Zhang Hao felt was dangerous must be extremely dangerous!
"Brother Hao, what exactly is in that tomb?" It can even make you feel dangerous!"
However, Zhang Hao ignored him and closed his eyes to rest. He was waiting to explore the tomb tomorrow.
