Volume 6 Ancient Doubts Chapter 509 The Immortal Female Corpse
Poplar's heart is full of questions, but he can't speak out and discuss them with others.
Seeing that the text patterns on the wooden coffin are very exquisite, if he follows his idea, he does not want to pry open the wooden coffin, and when the archaeological team comes in the future, the archaeological team will use more professional and sophisticated tools to open the coffin.
However, if they didn't open the wooden coffin to take a look, if there was another mystery hidden in the wooden coffin, how would those archaeologists deal with it?
So after thinking about it, Bai Yang still beckoned the iron bull to join him, and carefully pried the lid of the wooden coffin with a crowbar.
I just pried open a crack, and a scent came to my nose.
Li Er shrugged his nose and smelled it, and hurriedly said, "It's so fragrant! Isn't there another live corpse hidden in this wooden coffin?"
Bai Yang also muttered in his heart, and hurriedly stopped at the same time as Tie Niu, and turned his face to look at the Red Door Master.
The Red Gate Lord shook his head and said, "I can't tell this, but you have already pried open the lid of the coffin, and the fresh air has already entered, if it is really a live corpse inside, even if you stop immediately, I am afraid that you will have already woken up the live corpse!"
When Bai Yang heard this, he said hello to Tie Niu, and the two threw away the crowbar, and each stretched out his finger into the crack of the coffin lid that had just been pried open, and lifted the coffin lid with a little force.
The two of them just pried open a small gap in the coffin lid, Zheng Xiangtai and the others never imagined that they would easily lift the coffin lid with the power of just a few fingers.
Before, the Red Gate Lord said that the two of them worked together, no matter what kind of monster it was, it was enough to fight, and it seemed that there was really no boasting.
Poplar Iron Bull carefully moved the lid of the coffin to the side, and several people all looked down at the coffin, but they all exclaimed in unison.
I saw that inside the wooden coffin, it was neither a dry corpse, nor an imaginary white bone, but a woman with a living face.
It's really like a living woman, sleeping with her eyes closed.
So much so that at the first sight of this woman, Poplar Tie Niu was taken aback, thinking that he had met another woman who had been immortal for thousands of years because of taking immortal medicine, but had to sleep and recuperate.
But only a moment later, Poplar determined that the woman was indeed dead, for there was not a trace of heat emanating from her, nor the slight heaving that was bound to occur with her breath.
"What's going on? this, this, this...... Is it a woman who has been dead for a thousand years, how can it be like a living?" Li Er exclaimed, "Or...... What kind of demon method is this, it's like a living corpse?"
His words surprised everyone again, except for the Poplar Iron Bull, including the Red Gate Master, they all involuntarily took a step back, for fear that the woman, who looked like a living person, would suddenly sit up and violently hurt people.
Poplar kept his composure and looked at the woman closely, and judging from her closed eyes alone, it seemed that she was so well maintained that it was not possible to tell how old she was, but judging by the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, it was not at least forty years old.
But even if she is no less than forty years old, her eyebrows and facial features are still very beautiful, which shows that when she is young, she must be a rare beauty.
"Lao Bai, this woman ...... Is there a change?" said Iron Bull suddenly.
Bai Yang was shocked, in fact, he had already seen that there seemed to be some slight changes on the woman's face, and he thought that he was dazzled, but after hearing Tie Niu's words, Bai Yang hurriedly took a closer look.
Indeed, the woman's original vivid face is slowly changing.
The wrinkles on her face seemed to be deepening, the luster on her skin seemed to be fading rapidly, and even her hair was drying and drying.
Of course, these changes are subtle and subtle, but they are changing.
The Red Gate Lord also saw it, and blurted out: "It's not good, this woman can stay alive, it is likely that it is the effect of this spice, let's open the coffin and let the spice volatilize, I am afraid that this woman will soon wither and decay!"
"What should I do then?" Bai Yang blurted out, "This woman can remain incorruptible for thousands of years, and even still alive, which is definitely an extremely important discovery for the archaeological community! It can even be said that all the treasures in this underground palace are not as precious as this woman's corpse! If we allow her to decay and decay, we will be able to destroy this peerless treasure with our own hands!"
"Shall we re-nail the lid of the coffin right now?" Tie Niu asked, also a little panicked.
"I'm afraid not!" the Red Gate Lord shook his head regretfully, "When the coffin lid is opened, the spices have already begun to evaporate, even if we immediately reseal the coffin lid, I'm afraid we won't be able to stop this corpse from decomposing!"
"In any case, even if it can slow down its decay!" said Poplar, hurriedly calling to Tie Niu, "Old Black, let's quickly nail the coffin lid again!"
Tie Niu agreed, and the brothers immediately aligned the wooden coffin lid with the wooden coffin below, and the two of them didn't care about using tools at all, but directly used their fingers to press the nails on the coffin lid into the coffin below one by one.
And an operation like this once again made Zheng Xiangtai and several other inverted fighters open their mouths and couldn't close them. I feel that the ability of these brothers is really beyond their imagination again and again.
Seeing Bai Yang's depressed face, the Red Gate Lord hurriedly comforted him and said: "Bai Yang, you don't have to be so annoyed, judging from these fonts on the wooden coffin, Yuan Tiangang has two beloved women, this woman is one of them, I think the other one should also be placed in the underground palace, maybe in the tomb in front of it." Let's just open the coffin later, if there is the same wooden coffin inside, let's not open it again, and wait for the archaeological experts to come and deal with it themselves!"
"That's all there is to it!" Poplar sighed and nodded.
After that, Bai Yang and the Red Gate Master once again made a simple registration of the burial goods in the tomb, and Tie Niu also took out his camera to take pictures one by one for archiving.
At this time, several other inverted fighters were already dead and did not dare to have any evil thoughts, and they were also busy helping to count them.
Poplar took a little look at the murals on the four walls and found that they were basically just some traditional auspicious patterns, such as flowers blooming and rich, dragons and phoenixes are auspicious, etc. No pictorial text has been found about the reason why the woman in the coffin has been kept alive, nor has it been found to be a very simple "future text".
It took nearly half an hour before several people went to the next burial chamber one by one.
Sure enough, the shape of the next burial chamber was exactly the same as the previous one, except that on the wall opposite the passage, there were three passages on the left, middle and right.
Zheng Xiangtai first discovered that there was a Qingmang sword left on the ground, as well as two withered backpacks and several tools for exploring the tomb.
However, no bones have been left in this burial chamber.
"Why? How could it be that all the bones of my brothers and sisters are gone? Now that even their backpacks have been found, plus this Qingmang sword and these tools, at least more than half of my brothers and sisters who came here with Gongsun Xia have been killed or wounded! Even if the remaining few want to take away all the corpses of my brothers and sisters, they must be powerless! But why, can't they find a single skeleton?" Zheng Xiangtai muttered and walked around the tomb.
Lao Zhufeng's face turned pale again, and it took a long time to muster up the courage to say, "Will it be ...... That terrible monster that exists in this tomb will devour everyone who comes into the tomb, even the belt bones?"
As soon as these words came out, several people who were already frightened couldn't help but shudder.
Sun Hao turned to the Red Gate Lord and asked, "Red Gate Lord, what do you think, what is going on? Is there really any monster that can devour people even their belts and bones?"
"This ...... I'm not sure, but I really haven't heard of such a monster!" The Red Gate Lord replied cautiously while pondering, "If I guess, maybe Master Zheng's senior brothers, after being killed by the monsters in this tomb, their corpses were also dragged by the monsters to a certain tomb in the front! We can't find any bones, we probably haven't been able to find the place where the monster is entrenched!"
"But why, that monster obviously removed the sarcophagus lid in the tomb behind us before, but then dragged Xu Xiang further ahead, is this monster in front or behind? or...... Is there more than one monster at all?" Li Er asked.
And this question of his, Poplar has actually been thinking about it for a long time.
"If there really is more than one monster, then it shouldn't be that no monster has shown its face until now!" Poplar replied slowly while pondering, "So I think there is only one monster, but this dungeon may be in the shape of a ring, and if you go further, you can walk back to the tomb we entered." Or...... The monster opened a passage to connect the innermost and outermost burial chambers, so that the monster could enter and exit any burial chamber at will, giving us the feeling that there were monsters in front of us and behind us!"
This analysis of Poplar is the most reasonable one, and the ring-shaped underground palace tomb is not very rare.
So the Lord of the Red Gate nodded first and said, "I tend to agree with Poplar, I also think that there is only one monster, otherwise the monsters will have to fight for territory with each other, or just play and fight, and this dungeon will already be in chaos!"
"But why has this monster been awakened for nearly thirty years, and even that living corpse has been thoroughly dead, but this monster can live well?
But this question has been mentioned before, and no one has given an answer at the time, and it still hasn't.
