Siheyuan: Steel Mill Driver

Chapter 355 Corpse-scented Konjac

Hu Bayi looked in the direction of his flashlight and found that it was a stone beam. It stretched from the belly of the mountain to the middle of the ghost cave. He was a little curious. This stone beam had no support, but it could last for more than two thousand years, maybe even longer. It was incredible!

He shone the searchlight over there, and the things above could be seen clearly.

"Old Hu, do you think that might be the coffin of the Queen of Jingjue? Hey, why are there flowers on it?

But isn't this coffin too shabby? The branches are still there, and it's not even straightened out.

But I see if this section of the tree is alive? There are actually leaves on it!"

After seeing the picture, Hu Bayi couldn't help but swallow his saliva and said, "This, this, is this the Kunlun sacred tree?"

Shirley Yang said with a trembling voice: "No doubt! This is the coffin made of the Kunlun sacred tree.

Ancient books say that this tree is as old as Kunlun Mountain.

Back then, Qin Shi Huang wanted to find the sacred tree of Kunlun to make his coffin, but he didn't expect the Queen of Jingjue to be so extraordinary. I'm afraid that in history, no one's coffin will be more valuable than hers!" After saying this, everyone was about to go over.

Professor Chen shouted, "Don't go over there. Didn't you see the flower on the Kunlun sacred tree?"

The fat man said doubtfully, "Did you see it? I said before, could it be the flower of the Kunlun sacred tree? The flower does look like a morning glory, and the bottom looks like a big taro."

"Yes! It does look like this. Do you know the name of this flower?

It's called 'Corpse Amorphophallus', and it's an extremely rare plant. I'm afraid there's only one left in the world, and this flower is extremely dangerous."

The fat man said, "Corpse Amorphophallus? It has a very famous name. How is it dangerous? Can it eat me?"

Professor Chen said: "It's not possible to eat humans. When I was studying the ancient Western Region civilization, I saw in some surviving ancient murals and historical materials that the corpse-scented konjac originally grew in the Houyuetian Kingdom.

It once flowed into China through the Silk Road, but disappeared due to the incompatibility of the soil and environment.

This corpse-scented konjac can grow in ancient tombs. It is said to be able to keep corpses from decaying and rotting, and also make the corpse emit a fragrance. It is extremely precious!"

The fat man asked anxiously, "Professor, please tell me quickly, what danger is he in?"

"Haha, don't worry. Legend has it that the corpse-scented arum is possessed by an evil spirit. Once it grows up, no living person can get close to it.

I thought these were just ancient legends, but I didn’t expect that they really existed!”

The fat man said speechlessly: "You still haven't gotten to the point! This flower cannot be approached, what is the danger?"

At this time, Li Feng's voice came from the external speaker on the protective suit and said: "This is indeed the corpse-scented amorphophallus. It is not dangerous in itself, but it emits a toxin. When people smell or see it, they will have hallucinations."

After listening to this, Hu Bayi asked others to put on gas masks.

Li Feng sighed and said: "It's too late. When you see the corpse amorphophallus, it's too late. You are wearing protective clothing. I don't know if I have been infected yet.

The best way is to withdraw. Now that you have seen what you should see, I suggest that safety is more important."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhong Ling came over and said, "Master, I have already mastered my space. Now the side length is about 50 meters."

"Yeah, that's really good! It will be much more convenient to have you here to transport anything this time!"

Zhong Ling asked with a smile: "Master, is there anything in here that you like? I'll go and bring it back for you."

Li Feng looked at the throne of the Queen of Jingjue that Ye Ying had just moved back and said, "Alright, go ahead. This place will soon be buried under the sand again. I guess we won't be able to find it again. Take away everything that can be taken away."

"Okay, Master. I'll be down right away."

"and many more."

"What's wrong, Master?"

"You should wait until they come out before you start collecting them. I'm afraid that old Professor Chen will get so angry that he'll have a heart attack."

"Hehe, Master, you are so mean. I am leaving now."

In the underground palace, after listening to Li Feng's words, Professor Chen looked at the coffin of the Queen of Jingjue, feeling somewhat unwilling, but he still said with pain: "Everyone go back!"

At this time, Chu Jian pointed at the stone beam and said, "Teacher, look, there are words on the stone beam." After that, he ran over. Satipeng took a look and ran over too.

Hao Aiguo discovered it and immediately shouted, "Chu Jian, Satipeng, it's dangerous, come back here."

The two men pretended not to hear anything and continued running over.

Li Feng sighed and said, "It's over, they've been tricked!"

Hu Bayi said, "Professor Chen, please be careful. I will bring them back."

"Old Hu, don't go over there. The ghost has already followed. In a hallucination situation, the more people there are, the more dangerous it is."

Hu Bayi asked anxiously: "What should we do now?"

"If you two professors want to take pictures, hurry up. Once the ghost rescues them, you should return quickly."

Professor Chen nodded repeatedly and agreed. The two of them and Shirley Yang took out their cameras and started taking pictures.

At this time, Chu Jian and Satipeng had already run onto the stone beam, and Chu Jian was even using a brush to paint the ghost cave patterns on the side of the beam.

Hao Aiguo was very happy. He took pictures frantically with his camera, fearing that he would miss a single word.

Li Feng's voice came out again from the communicator, saying, "Chu Jian and Satipeng could be in danger at any time. Ghost will knock them out when they are hurt. I hope you understand."

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Satipeng smiled strangely, picked up a stone from the stone beam, and smashed it on Chu Jian's head.

Professor Chen saw it and shouted: "Chu Jian, uh..."

Just as the stone was about to hit Chu Jian's head, Ghost pulled Satipeng over and the stone passed by, brushing against Chu Jian's scalp.

The ghost knocked Satipeng unconscious. Chu Jian smiled strangely and was about to jump off the stone beam, but was caught by the ghost. The ghost knocked him unconscious as well and tied them both up tightly with a rope.

The flowers on the coffin of the Queen of Jingjue began to sway again. The fat man screamed, "Wow, there are so many black snakes. Run!"

Li Feng saw on the screen that there were indeed black snakes, but not many of them, so he said, "Old Hu, you have to stay calm. You have also been tricked. There are not as many black snakes as you think."

"Master Li, now is the time. Please tell me what to do."

"Okay, I will adjust your masks to be opaque so that you can't see outside, and then turn on the cameras on your heads. The results he captures are real images.

All right, hurry up and bring Professor Chen and the others back."

Hu Bayi, Fatty and Shirley Yang all felt a black screen before their eyes, and then the picture reappeared. Sure enough, there were a lot fewer black snakes this time.

At this time, the fat man shouted, Ghost, you don’t have protective clothing, take Professor Chen and the others away first, we will cover you.

The three of them heard the ghost say, "Okay."

The fat man felt a flash before his eyes, and saw Ye Ying picking up Professor Chen and Hao Aiguo, and disappeared in front of the three people like a shadow.

The ghosts behind were not willing to be left behind, and soon the six of them disappeared.

The fat man said, "Fuck, is this still a human? Is this a grave?"

Hu Bayi said: "No wonder Master Li is so confident, it turns out these two bodyguards are so strong!"
