Tomb raiding: It all started with shocking the archaeological team.
Chapter 219 The Two-Headed Gu King Appears
Rumble…
When Chen Yibai pressed the square pillar of the southwest-facing gate, the commotion inside the golden coffin became even greater.
The cracks around the golden coffin also became as wide as a palm.
This time, Chen Yibai finally saw clearly that there was an abnormally obese corpse lying inside. At first glance, it looked like a giant hippopotamus with a waist as wide as a water bucket and two heads on its shoulders, both wearing crowns!
It's the Two-Headed Gu King!
Before Chen Yibai could even get a clear look at the face of the Two-Headed Gu King, the twelve golden statues around him seemed to panic. They simultaneously brandished their double-edged swords, crisscrossing each other like a net of blades, and slashed down at Chen Yibai.
Now all that's missing is the last pillar for the 'Life Gate' in the northeast direction.
Faced with such an attack from the Twelve Golden Statues, there was no way to dodge. The Fire Serpent Scale Armor could only protect the upper body, and it was definitely not going to work if they tried to withstand it head-on.
This is not like before; even if we tried, we wouldn't have a chance to compete.
In desperation, Chen Yibai had no choice but to grab onto the edge of the golden coffin and jump down.
As the twelve golden statues simultaneously struck and missed, he pulled his sword back and, in the brief moment, climbed back up along the edge of the golden coffin. With a burst of energy, he charged towards the northeast and pressed down the last protruding pillar of the Gate of Life.
Actually, Chen Yibai was wrong before. There was indeed a hidden lock on the golden coffin, and there was indeed a hexagram in the middle, but there was no password. All you had to do was press down all the square pillars, and the coffin lid could be opened in eight parts along the cracks in the Qimen Dunjia diagram.
When the square pillar is pressed down, the twelve golden statues will move accordingly.
When Chen Yibai pressed down on the last square pillar, the entire coffin lid, following the Qimen Dunjia diagram, shattered into pieces and fell off the golden coffin with a loud rumble.
At the same time, the double-edged swords in the hands of the twelve golden statues also slashed at Chen Yibai again.
Seeing that there was nowhere to hide, Chen Yibai gritted his teeth and jumped into the coffin.
Clang clang...
More than a dozen sharp blades struck the edge of the golden coffin, sparks flying and the sound of the blades ringing in the ears.
Inside the golden coffin, Chen Yibai jumped down and landed right on the belly of the two-headed Gu King, which felt soft and like stepping on poop.
This shows that the body of the Two-Headed Gu King was not decomposed.
It's even possible that the Two-Headed Gu King didn't die at all!
Chen Yibai didn't dare to put any force on his feet. The twelve golden statues outside shouldn't be able to catch up to the coffin, so Chen Yibai looked at the head of the two-headed Gu King again.
The two-headed monster king had an unusually large body with two heads growing on its shoulders, sharing a short, thick neck.
The head on the left is wearing a silver crown. Although the head is large, the chin is very pointed, making it look like a triangular face at first glance. The facial features are very three-dimensional, the skin is fair and clean, the eyes under the black eyebrows are closed with the corners of the eyes pointing upwards, the nose is high and straight, the lips without a beard are very thin, and the cheeks are not fleshy. In physiognomy, this is considered a typical face of a villain.
He looks like he's asleep.
Turning my head to the right, I saw a head wearing an exquisite golden crown. But the head beneath the crown looked at me like a large, round, black tumor. Its features were crooked and twisted, as if they had been randomly pieced together. It had a flat nose, sausage lips, and its face was like the surface of the moon, pitted and covered with many small tumors.
Chen Yibai's first impression of this place wasn't horror, but ugliness! The kind of ugliness that comes with a malevolent look, an extreme kind of ugliness!
Chen Yibai immediately realized that one was treacherous and the other was wicked!
A freak sharing a body, they should be identical twins, but they have completely different appearances. If you didn't see them in person, you might think they were stitched together.
This is simply a biological miracle. If it were taken out of the world, it would definitely cause a sensation in the global biological community!
In fact, this is indeed the case.
Just over ten minutes ago, Chen Yibai's live stream had been secretly rebroadcast overseas by some cyber hackers and was rapidly spreading globally.
When a close-up shot of the two-headed monster appeared in the live stream, netizens initially thought that the two heads had been sewn together.
[What the hell is this? A person with two heads? It looks so ugly and scary!]
[That thing on the right doesn't look like a human head, does it?]
[I'm a professor of archaeology. This must be a unique ancient burial practice, placing the head of a monster inside the coffin as a funerary object, carrying a special metaphor...]
[What metaphor? If you're so capable, finish your sentence. Only showing half your bragging rights makes you an idiot!]
[Damn! Are you all new here? I'm a long-time fan, I know. Isn't there a two-headed statue enshrined in the temple above ground? It also appears in the murals in the passageway, so I'm guessing that this is the two-headed monster enshrined in the temple, and it's definitely the tomb owner of this ancient tomb!]
It seems there are still some viewers in the live stream who are watching seriously and using their brains.
And he's also a loyal fan of level 10 light sticks.
However, this long barrage of comments immediately attracted a wave of criticism.
【I don't believe you for a second. Even I, a non-professional, know that the stone statues and murals in the temple are all depicting deities worshipped by the ancients! The tomb owner, when being buried, also imitated the appearance of their revered gods by adding two heads to the coffin...】
That's right, that's the correct answer!
[Just you wait and see, if the corpse in this coffin really does have two heads, I'll livestream myself eating shit while doing a handstand!]
[I feel like you're trying to trick me into following you by livestreaming yourself eating shit upside down?]
【This isn't the time to discuss or study this. I have a feeling the corpse in the coffin is asleep. Before he wakes up, just to be safe, let's stab him first!】
What this netizen said is exactly what Chen Yibai is thinking right now.
Before the Two-Headed Gu King wakes up, let's stab him with our swords and cut off his two heads first.
This is called prevention, nipping unknown dangers in the bud.
As for the two-headed Gu King and the secrets within the blood vine coffin below, there's no need to delve into them.
Having made up his mind, Chen Yibai drew the crimson ancient sword from his back, stepped on the belly of the two-headed monster king, and took a step forward.
Because the space inside the golden coffin was somewhat cramped, he could only stab the two-headed Gu King in the neck with one sword first, and then make a horizontal slash with the other.
But just as Chen Yibai stepped forward and landed on the chest of the Two-Headed Gu King, he suddenly felt a tremor run through the sole of his foot.
Chen Yibai was immediately alarmed.
This isn't an earthquake; it feels more like the sudden heartbeat of the Two-Headed Gu King!
