Tomb raiding: It all started with shocking the archaeological team.

After carefully confirming that there were no mechanisms inside the empty stone coffin, Chen Yibai stepped inside.

The stone coffin is over a meter wide, with a very spacious interior, and is nearly four meters high. Even with a crimson ancient sword, one cannot reach the top.

Chen Yibai immediately braced himself against the inner walls of the stone coffin with his legs and climbed up more than two meters. Then he used the crimson ancient sword to probe upwards, and a crack was directly pushed open in the sealed stone slab above his head.

It seems I guessed right.

The inside of this stone coffin really does lead to the upper level.

However, it is quite reasonable to place the entrance to the upper level inside the stone coffin; many ancient tombs have this kind of clever idea in their entrances.

Chen Yibai pressed on, gripping the crimson ancient sword and forcefully pushing open the stone slab above his head with a 'rumble'. He then quickly grabbed the edge and climbed up, the movements flowing smoothly and without any hesitation.

Because there are zombie-like rice dumplings on it, and they're screaming loudly, so we can't be fussy.

After climbing up, Chen Yibai immediately tensed up and became alert to his surroundings.

The third layer was similar to the one below, with various burial goods piled up in every corner, which could also be described as spoils of war symbolizing the glory of the Gu clan!

Unlike the layer below, the burial objects on this layer also look much more 'high-class'. Most of the daily utensils are made of gold or silver, and they are decorated with exquisite patterns and superb craftsmanship. The patterns mainly feature unknown birds.

Even the various weapons are decorated with bird patterns.

Clearly, the tribe conquered by the Gu clan was much stronger than the tribe below it. Judging from the burial goods alone, it was like the difference between commoners and gentry.

In addition, Chen Yibai also noticed that there were many clothes piled up separately in the northwest direction, some made of animal hides and some of silk. Even though they were old and many of the silk items had weathered and rotted, it was still possible to see that these clothes, in terms of patterns and styles, were very feminine.

This corresponds exactly to the murals we saw in the passageway earlier. The clan tribe conquered by the Gu King was a matrilineal clan tribe. Simply put, a matrilineal clan tribe is a tribe where women are in power and men are merely tools for procreation, with extremely low status. If a man is weak in that area, his status in the tribe may be even lower than that of a livestock.

Wow…

Just as Chen Yibai was looking straight ahead, he suddenly heard a clattering sound, like the clinking of silver jewelry.

Immediately afterwards, a fragrance wafted through the air, a very special and indescribable scent.

It's the scent of corpses!

Chen Yibai immediately perked up and quickly took several steps in the opposite direction of the sound and the smell of corpses, creating a distance of several meters before turning his head to look.

Regarding the corpse fragrance, Chen Yibai had also smelled it before entering the tomb of King Kang of Xiaqi Mountain. It was the corpse fragrance compass held by Brother Chicken, Wu Daoshan's apprentice.

Corpse fragrance, as the name suggests, is the scent emanating from a corpse. It is a unique fragrance produced when the body does not decay after death and yin energy enters the body.

This special physical condition can only be found in women!

Moreover, zongzi with a 'strange fragrance' are extremely vicious and powerful. The stronger and more intense the fragrance, the longer the body has been dead and the heavier the yin energy, and naturally, the more vicious it is!

The smell of the corpse that Chen Yibai had just smelled was so strong that it felt like it had solidified and been stuffed directly into his nostrils, which is why he cautiously kept a distance of several meters before turning back.

Just four or five meters directly in front of me stood a female rice dumpling.

No! It looks more like a female ghost!

But in a daze, it felt like a living, breathing woman!

At this moment, even Chen Yibai, who had seen all kinds of things, became a little insecure.

The female rice dumpling was about 1.8 meters tall, dressed in black clothes that resembled Miao clothing, adorned with various exquisite silver ornaments, and wearing a silver crown on her head.

What surprised Chen Yibai the most was that under the silver crown was a lifelike face with skin as white as snow, plump flesh, black eyebrows curved like willow leaves, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, three-dimensional features, and an extremely beautiful appearance!

How beautiful?

Even Chen Yibai, who had been with countless women in his previous life, was extremely shocked and impacted.

It's like a stunningly beautiful woman standing right in front of my face.

Chen Yibai has seen many zongzi that have died but not decayed, but this is truly the first time he has seen one that has remained in such its original state.

This is why Chen Yibai suddenly couldn't tell whether this was a female zombie, a female ghost, or actually a 'person'!

Not only Chen Yibai, but also netizens in the live stream who saw the female rice dumpling appearing on screen all went wild.

Holy crap... is this a ghost or a zombie? She's absolutely stunning! She blows away all contemporary female celebrities!

[Captain Chen, are you worried we might not be able to handle it, so you turned the beauty filter to the highest level?]

[Give a beauty filter to rice dumplings?]

Not only netizens, but if Chen Yibai were watching the live stream, he would probably mistakenly think that the zongzi (sticky rice dumpling) had been given a beauty filter.

However, Chen Yibai really didn't use any beauty filters; in reality, this female rice dumpling is even prettier than she appears on the live stream.

Looks like I've really been single for too long, even the female rice dumplings I see still have a bit of charm.

[Host, could you please ask her if I'd consider becoming a ghost knight if she's willing?]

[Dude upstairs, your courage is commendable, but I wonder if your job can actually satisfy them...]

Chen Yibai frowned, quickly clearing his mind of all the jumbled thoughts. His expression turned serious, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, as if he were about to ruthlessly destroy a flower.

If it were Wu Daoshan, he might drool.

But to Chen Yibai, no matter how beautiful she is, she's still a rice dumpling!

Just then, the female rice dumpling in front of him suddenly looked directly into Chen Yibai's murderous gaze, slightly raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a wicked smile, and at the same time, leaned her body forward slightly, raising her arm and reaching towards Chen Yibai.

Her full breasts were exceptionally firm, her outstretched palms were as white as jade, and especially the wicked smile that curled the corners of her mouth, made Chen Yibai feel that he had been 'chosen' by her.

In matrilineal clan tribes, the tribal chief usually selects the strongest and most physically fit men in the entire tribe to be paired with.

This is somewhat similar to the ancient emperors choosing their concubines.

Chen Yibai: "Damn it, are they treating me like a male concubine?"

Or are you planning to seduce her?
