The sudden action left the archaeological team puzzled.
They followed the beam of Qin An's flashlight and saw a cat-like creature lying on the forked trunk of the dead tree.
Perhaps it sensed that it was being illuminated by white light!
The thing slowly raised its head, turned around, and looked at the archaeological team.
The two sides met each other.
They were all terrified by the other person's appearance!
The archaeological team was afraid because the filthy thing had a woman's face... its black hair on its head was exceptionally thick, its two fluffy ears were as big as an adult's fist, and its body below the neck resembled a leopard.
“Mmmmmm——”
The filthy thing's hair stood on end when it saw the archaeological team.
He was clearly frightened!
After all, it has been in Chiyou's tomb for so long.
I've never seen so many outsiders before.
But seeing that the archaeological team members did not approach it or send any attack signals... the filthy thing was not in a hurry to run away! Instead, it stood on the tree trunk and watched the group warily.
"Qin An... what is that filthy thing? Why does it have a woman's face?" Jiang Liuli looked at the filthy thing with a puzzled expression and felt physically uncomfortable.
Qin An shook his head and said, "It looks a bit like the human-faced beast from the Classic of Mountains and Seas—the Xingxing! But the Xingxing has been confirmed to be the white-eared tamarin from southeastern Brazil."
The white-eared marmoset is less than 1 meter long!
That guy was a full 1.6 meters long!
This is roughly the height of an adult woman.
at this time.
Standing behind the crowd, Zhang Yunfeng also spoke up: "Brother Qin An is absolutely right! That dirty thing doesn't look like a white-eared marmoset... it looks more like a combination of the human-faced beast Xingxing and the demon from the Classic of Mountains and Seas."
Gu Yang frowned and asked, "Charm?"
Shao Wei quickly said, "It's the 'mei' in 'chimeiwangliang'! In the Classic of Mountains and Seas, 'mei' usually refers to beautiful monsters...like tree spirits and fox spirits! They usually transform into beauties to lure passersby to have sex with them and then eat them."
【Huh? Are you sure you want to have intercourse first and then eat?】
[This is outrageous... How could such a thing happen?! Where is morality? Where is justice? And where is this place?!]
[Hiss... I initially thought it was quite scary! But after hearing what Teacher Shao said, I suddenly realized that the ape didn't look so frightening after all! It even seemed to have a touch of elegance?]
[Ahem, brothers! I have a bold idea!]
Let's go together!
This woman is absolutely despicable! I'm going to argue with her!
I'm begging you guys... you guys are really hungry! How could you do this?!
[Ask? You'll have to wait in line!]
.............
Deng Linzhong.
Looking at that xingxing.
Hu Jizhou said quietly, "Chi You's tomb is over 5000 years old! What did this guy eat in this tomb? He couldn't possibly be eating these bronze and gold leaves, could he?"
Hear this.
Everyone was puzzled!
at this time.
The sound of a baby crying, which the archaeologists had heard before, echoed once again from the depths of the forest.
All of a sudden!
The monkey shuddered violently as if it had been electrocuted!
Then, like a tiger, he leaped down from the tree trunk and ran wildly into the depths of the forest on all fours.
"Come on!"
After General Qin An put the flashlight back on his head, he took the lead and chased after the direction the Xingxing had fled in, and the members of the archaeological team also ran forward as if their lives depended on it.
This forest is far more vast than I imagined!
There are also downhill sections with slopes.
I ran outside for three to five minutes straight!
The archaeological team then slid down a slope.
Only then did they reach the end of Denglin... There, a small stream flowed westward, and strangely shaped rocks of enormous size grew wildly around the riverbank. Beyond the stream was a giant cave.
There is a dead tree next to the cave!
Two lyrebirds perched on the dead tree.
The wailing sound, similar to a baby crying, came from the beaks of the two lyrebirds, while the xingxing that had fled along the way disappeared into a cave.
"Whoohoo-"
The archaeological team members were out of breath from running.
After finally stopping, he put his hands on his knees and gasped for breath!
Qin An looked at the feng shui of this area with surprise and doubt.
There is a forest in front and a river behind.
The lyrebird sings, the xingxing runs.
A babbling brook meanders around the strangely shaped rocks.
The cave was dark and filled with withered trees.
It was originally a completely lifeless place!
Fourteen grown men squeezed in... and suddenly the place came alive!
Gu Wuyan breathed slightly and said:
"Ah Qin! What are you looking at?"
Qin An said somewhat agitatedly, "I'm looking at that cave... The feng shui here is a bit off! There's either a human corpse or the corpse of a spirit in that cave."
Hear this.
Wang Yanyan asked somewhat flusteredly, "Brother Qin An... how did you know that? We didn't even go into that cave. How did you figure that out?"
“Not only that…” Qin An shook his head and said, “Because this place has come to life! The corpses in that cave have begun to show signs of rising!”
"You all turn around and run into the forest... Each of you find a tall and lush tree to hide in! If I come looking for you in a little while, come down. If I don't come, you must hide well and don't make a sound."
After saying this.
Qin An then drew his black gold ancient sword, jumped over the stream, and ran into the large cave!
See this scene.
The entire archaeological team felt their legs go weak!
Brother Qin An is probably going to that cave... to kill the corpse before it fully revives, but judging from Brother Qin An's reaction, it seems he isn't entirely confident of victory.
"What are you standing there for? Listen to Brother Qin An and run back! Find a tall, lush tree to hide under."
Gu Yang quickly led the archaeological team back.
They specifically chose to hide in bronze trees that were tall and imposing with lush bronze leaves. Since trees that met these requirements were rare, the 13 members of the archaeological team were spaced quite far apart.
"Breathe, breathe—"
The surrounding environment became quiet again!
Everyone hid in the tree, not moving an inch...
Everyone waited anxiously, hoping to see Qin An return in triumph as soon as possible.
But a good three to five minutes passed.
Qin An still hasn't returned!
Just as Hu Jizhou was about to climb down from the bronze tree to see what was going on with Qin An, a series of rustling footsteps came from beside Deng Lin.
Everyone's heart tightened!
