The more Qu Kangcheng talked, the more excited he became. While talking, he leaned aside the torch in his hand, and he actually leaned down, wanting to take a closer look at the golden jade robe.
Before we jumped down, Qu Kangcheng should have woken up, he must have seen this jade robe.It's just that the situation at that time was quite special, and the environment was also quite special. When Qu Kangcheng and Liang Yue and I were not around, he was also very afraid of this place.
So he only saw the general condition of the jade robe, and didn't dare to examine it in more detail.Later, when he saw our figure on the stone tripod, he thought about calling Liang Yue and me until we jumped off.
At this time, Liang Yue and I were right behind him, which gave Lao Qu a lot of courage.He actually wanted to get closer, because that golden jade dress was too important to him.It's not how precious this thing is, even if it was precious, Lao Qu would not want to keep it for himself.He only valued this golden jade robe so much for the purpose of archaeological discovery.
But when I saw Lao Qu approaching, I had an ominous premonition.Because this stone tripod is strange from inside to outside.
Not to mention anything else, those all-pervasive fire silkworms have already climbed up the stone tripod, but they dare not climb inside the stone tripod.
I don't think those fire silkworms have much spirituality, they dare not come inside, it must be out of their own instinct.In other words, there should be something that makes them afraid.This is enough to show that the inside of this stone tripod will not be safer than the outside.
But when we jumped here, what we saw was only this coffin and this ancient corpse in the exquisite sarcophagus dressed in golden jade.
It is not difficult to guess that it is probably this ancient corpse that scares the fire silkworm.
So if Qu Kangcheng dared to move forward, wouldn't that put himself in a dangerous situation?
After thinking about this, I hurried to look at the ancient corpse lying in the sarcophagus.
The golden-haired jade garment not only wrapped the body of the corpse, but even the face was covered with jade pieces.When I looked over, it seemed that the jade piece on the face of the ancient corpse moved.
This made me startled, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on my body.I was afraid that the flickering of the torches would dazzle my eyes.I hurriedly shone the beam of the headlight on my head.
The beam of light stayed on the face of the ancient corpse.
I read that right.
This time I could see clearly that the jade piece on that face was indeed shaking slightly.
At the same time, I also found that the mouth of the ancient corpse was slowly opening.
It was the movement of his mouth that pulled the muscles on his face.This caused the jade pieces to shake.
A 200-year-old corpse actually opened its mouth?
Isn't something going to happen?
My head was buzzing, and I hurriedly shouted: "Old Qu, be careful..."
At the same time, I also reached out to pull the old song.
Before I could utter the words completely, I saw a red light flashing in the mouth of the ancient corpse with a gap slightly opened.Something jumped out from inside, and went straight to Lao Qu's face.
Lao Qu wasn't on guard at all, even a little dazed because of my shouting.
Fortunately, when I shouted, my hand stretched out.I grabbed Lao Qu's arm and pulled him over violently.Because I used too much force, Lao Qu was almost pulled over by me.
The red light came out, and due to the extremely fast speed, I didn't even see what it was.
After the red light burst out, it quickly turned back, and the target was still Laoqu.A red line ran towards Lao Qu.
This time, Liang Yue's hands were quick and his eyes were quick, and the mahogany sword in his hand swung out, just in time to meet the rushing red line.
The red thread quickly wrapped around Liang Yue's mahogany sword.Only then did we see clearly that the red light turned out to be a crimson centipede as thick as a chopstick.
The centipede was wrapped around the mahogany sword.It seemed that he was not afraid of the wooden sword, instead of retreating he advanced, instead he crawled along Liang Yue's sword body towards the hilt and arms.
Liang Yue had no choice but to throw away the sword if she wanted to protect herself.
I didn't see it well, so I hurriedly swung the Jianglong wooden sword up.I put the sword on the wooden sword and slashed towards the red centipede.
Jianglongmu, the name really didn't come up for nothing.The centipede is not afraid of the peach tree, but is quite afraid of the Jianglong tree.It didn't dare to confront Jianglongmu head-on.Quickly bounced off the wooden sword, and rushed back towards the head of the ancient corpse again.
Click and click.
The centipede ran near the head of the ancient corpse, and suddenly disappeared.
The red centipede was gone.
All this happened in a few seconds, and it wasn't until this moment that Qu Kangcheng realized: "Ah... what's going on?"
I can't laugh or cry, the old man's reflex arc is too long, the scene just now was really too dangerous.
That centipede is as thick as chopsticks.It is more than half a foot long, and it is also covered in red, and it is not known if it has any connection with that kind of fire silkworm.
But this kind of creature living in the underground palace.It is highly toxic in itself.Here, they still survive in an environment without food and air, and even more so, they have extraordinary toxins in their bodies.If you are bitten by this kind of poison, I am afraid that ordinary antidote will not be able to detoxify.
I turned my head and asked Liang Yue, "Where's the little red centipede? Did you see where it went?"
Liang Yue shook her head, but pointed to the ground near the ancient corpse's head and said, "Look. What is that?"
I refocused the light, only to find that there was a red stone the size of a one-yuan coin on the ground.
I bet there was no such thing in the beginning.
Liang Yue picked up the red stone with a wooden sword. For safety reasons, Qu Kangcheng wore a pair of special gloves to hold the red stone in his hand.
Upon closer inspection, the red stone is crystal clear and extremely round, it should be an extremely exquisite ruby.
Lao Qu breathed a sigh of relief at the piece of ruby, so that the quality of the jade became more moist, like holding a puddle of water.
"It's really good jade, the best in the world." Qu Kangcheng couldn't help admiring.
Chapter 1051 Ruby Controversy
Ruby, Red Centipede...
I wondered: "Could it be that red centipede changed? I remember that when that centipede ran back just now, I did hear a snap."
Qu Kangcheng glanced at me and said, "How is it possible? Have you read too many fairy novels? A centipede is a centipede, how could it turn into jade? Could it be a centipede spirit?"
As he spoke, Qu Kangcheng walked towards the ancient corpse again.
I hurriedly stopped him: "Old Qu. What are you going to do again?"
Qu Kangcheng held the red jade and said: "The ancients usually kept jade in their mouths to prevent corpses from rotting. It is similar to the role of this golden jade garment. I have to return this thing. The ancient corpse is worthless if it rots." .”
I nodded, fearing that Lao Qu would be in danger again, I stretched out the Dragon Subduing Wooden Sword and said, "Then I'll do it. Put it here."
Qu Kangcheng glanced at me, and carefully placed the piece of jade on the tip of my sword.
Holding the sword in my hand, I slowly brought the piece of jade to the mouth of the ancient corpse.
Seeing that the point of my sword was about to be sent into the mouth of the ancient corpse, a loud roar came from the other side: "Don't move, it's ours."
This sound came suddenly, I was unprepared, I was shocked, my hand shook, and the red jade slid directly from the tip of the sword.
Fortunately, the ruby just fell into the mouth of the ancient corpse.
I hurriedly turned back to find the source of the shout, and found a human head popping out from the other side of the coffin.
It turned out that we had been standing in front of the coffin, and the place where the head was was completely hidden in the darkness.Because we discovered the golden jade clothes inside the coffin, we didn't have time to check other surrounding situations.
This sudden appearance of a person really frightened us a lot.
For the sake of safety, Liang Yue, Qu Kangcheng and I jumped off the stone platform in a hurry.
Liang Yue waved her mahogany sword and shouted, "Who is it?"
The man didn't talk to him, and after standing up from the dark place, he stepped onto the stone platform with extremely fast movements, jumped over the railing, and went straight to the lying ancient corpse.
At this time, the light of Qu Kangcheng's torch on the stone platform also shone on the man.
We also recognized the person at once, it turned out to be Meng Daqing, the nephew of Meng Baolu who was sent to follow us.
We all analyzed that the reason why Meng Baolu sent his nephew down was to prevent us from embezzling the jewels in the underground palace.They believe that the underground palace is located in Sanyangpu Village, so if there are treasures in it, they should belong to Sanyangpu.
After Meng Daqing came down, he behaved well.Apart from the fact that the talisman paper was wet with saliva during the passage, which caused the exhaled Yang Qi to be detected by the zombie in Qing Dynasty costume, there was nothing annoying about it.
And he disappeared with Ma Di, Pang Dahai and Huang Wenbo, we suspect that they got separated from us.After we discovered this mysterious passage, I also suspect that they also went this way.
But until we found this stone tripod and the nine surrounding sarcophagi, we did not find these four people.
Immediately afterwards, there was an emergency situation where fire silkworms besieged us, and we never had time to find Fatty and the others.Unexpectedly, we found Meng Daqing again inside the stone tripod.
"Meng Daqing, what are you doing?" Seeing him rushing towards the ancient corpse, I hurriedly shouted.
That Meng Daqing ignored me, and still rushed straight to the ancient corpse, stretching out his hand to the mouth of the ancient corpse.
Meng Daqing should have been hiding behind that for a long time, and he should have seen everything that happened before.His target this time turned out to be the piece of ruby that had fallen into the mouth of the ancient corpse.
The red jade was just delivered to the mouth of the ancient corpse by me, but at this moment Meng Daqing stretched out two fingers, one index finger and one thumb, directly inserted in, trying to dig out the red jade.
"Meng Daqing, are you fucking crazy? Hurry up and stop, it's dangerous." I yelled loudly, trying to rush over to pull Meng Daqing away.
Who knew that Meng Daqing turned his head, his eyes were red, and he said viciously: "You guys found the treasure and wanted to keep it privately. This is the gem of our Sanyangpu Village. I have to dig it out and give it to my uncle. "
The uncle Meng Daqing mentioned was probably Meng Baolu. This Meng Daqing really deserved Meng Baolu's trust, and he kept thinking about what Meng Baolu told him.
While talking, Meng Daqing tried hard to pick the ruby.
Since the opening range of the ancient corpse's mouth was limited, it was only slightly open.In addition, Meng Daqing's two fingers, thick and thick like two small mallets, could barely fit into the mouth of the ancient corpse, but they couldn't get the ruby out smoothly.
Meng Daqing gritted his teeth and moved his fingers inside.In this way, the muscles on the face of the ancient corpse were activated, and at the same time, the jade pieces on it were activated, making a clattering sound.
"Meng Daqing, you fucking listen to me, okay, no one wants to hide the treasure...don't get rid of that jade piece..." I was terrified when I saw that ancient corpse was covered with that golden jade robe , the body is not deformed.I judged that the corpse did not rot, this kind of ancient corpse is very particular.If it's not done well, something will really go wrong.
Unexpectedly, my words reminded Meng Daqing that he was originally picking the piece of ruby in the mouth of the ancient corpse, and his attention was also on that piece of ruby, and he didn't pay much attention to other things.
After listening to my words, he may have realized that the clothes worn by this ancient corpse are also unusual.
Of course, I guess Meng Daqing may not know that this dress is a kind of golden jade dress, but he must recognize the jade pieces on it.
Sure enough, Meng Daqing's eyes lit up when he saw the golden jade dress.
"Ah, this clothes should be more valuable, I have to take it off..." The guy muttered, trying to pull his hand out of the ancient corpse's mouth, and then go to pick off the jade robe.
I heard him say more and more outrageous, and I was a little annoyed.
Liang Yuefa said harshly: "Stop talking nonsense with him, just be tough."
I nodded, thinking of using strong means to pull him down first.
Who knew that Liang Yue and I rushed up one left and one right, only to find that Meng Daqing's face, which was originally flushed with excitement, had changed color.
Meng Daqing's face turned blue and purple, and the veins on his neck were exposed.
"What's wrong with you?" I asked hastily.
"Take... I can't take it out..." Meng Daqing pulled out the finger that had been inserted into the mouth of the ancient corpse while talking.
I was taken aback, and then looked at the mouth of the ancient corpse.It turned out that the mouth was slightly open, but it was already closed now.
It was just because Meng Daqing's two fingers were still inside, so when he closed his mouth, he bit his two fingers.
Chapter 1052 The face of the ancient corpse
The body of the ancient corpse should be very heavy, Meng Daqing pulled back his fingers so hard, but he couldn't make the ancient corpse move.So if Meng Daqing didn't tell the reason just now, I didn't notice this problem.
I saw that Meng Daqing was in great pain, so I hurried forward and grabbed his arm, pulling it out forcefully, trying to help him pull out his fingers.
As a result, Meng Daqing cried out in pain, "Ah...it hurts, it hurts, no, no, no..."
As the saying goes, ten fingers are connected to the heart.
Meng Daqing, who was tall and thick, his fingers were bitten by the ancient corpse, and he screamed in pain. At the same time, beads of sweat the size of beans dripped down his face.
"It hurts so much?" Seeing Meng Daqing's reaction, I felt something was wrong.
I thought it was just that the mouth of the ancient corpse was closed, and the situation could still be controlled in that case.But in the current situation, it was obvious that the ancient corpse was biting Meng Daqing's two fingers.
"You...don't struggle anymore, listen to me..." I hurriedly shouted to Meng Daqing.
Meng Daqing was still enduring the pain and tentatively pulling that finger out, but he stopped after hearing what I said.
I poked the dragon-subduing wooden sword over and pried open the lips of the ancient corpse.
That ancient corpse's face was covered with so many pieces of jade that I couldn't see the expression on his face.It's ridiculous, what kind of expression can an ancient corpse have?It's nothing more than a shriveled, skinny and bony face.But for some reason, I always have a feeling that under the cover of those jade pieces, the ancient corpse should be extremely angry at this moment.
In fact, I know in my heart that what Meng Daqing did just now has broken the relevant taboo.As far as I know, even those who specialize in tomb robbers usually keep the spirit jade in the mouth of the ancient corpse.Even if you want to steal it, there will be a set of special procedures.Hard prying like Meng Daqing's is strictly prohibited.
These things I know are instilled in me by my third uncle.Over time, I have learned a lot.
But at this moment, Meng Daqing's finger was bitten, and it needs to be rescued no matter what. We can't ignore it when we come down together.
Because of that feeling, I simply didn't look at the face of the ancient corpse. At this moment, the jade piece on his face was still trembling slightly.I focus on his mouth.
I don't know if the face of the ancient corpse is a bit deformed, his lips are very thick, and the tip of my Dragon Subduing Wooden Sword slowly opened his lips.
I found that the ancient corpse clenched its teeth tightly, biting Meng Daqing's two fingers tightly.That finger was almost deformed by the bite, one can imagine how much Meng Daqing was in pain.
This is also a tough guy, otherwise he would have fainted from the pain.
