Volume 3 Snow Mountain Ice Palace Chapter 285 The Masked Tomb Robber
Chu Mingyu didn't break up with Bai Yang and them right away, while the archaeological team hadn't arrived yet, Bai Yang and the others had a time to rest, and Chu Mingyu also followed them to visit the local places of interest.
The most famous and most appreciated thing about Gongga Snow Mountain is actually the natural scenery. As for the places of interest, there are just a few Tibetan Buddhist monasteries.
However, because it is a Tibetan Buddhist temple, the Tibetans regard it as a sacred temple site, but it is not well-known among the Han Chinese.
Two days later, the archaeological team arrived, and Chu Mingyu and Jack said goodbye to Bai Yang and the others, saying that they were going to meet her father first, and when the small cutter arrived, she would rush over to meet Bai Yang and the others as soon as possible.
The town where Bai Yang and the others were staying was very small, and it was a big deal for the town to suddenly arrive with so many archaeological team members.
On that day, even the mayor of the town personally came to receive the archaeological team, and it was noisy for most of the day.
It was not until the next morning that Bai Yang and others led the archaeological team to the tomb of the emperor of Nanzhao.
Fortunately, the tomb was not discovered by the other inverted people, and the big stone pressed at the entrance of the tomb was intact, and the tomb naturally maintained the original state when Bai Yang and the others left.
Unexpectedly, there were still several burial chambers in that tomb that had not been discovered by Poplar and others before.
However, after carefully studying Ouyang Qi's "Secret Technique", Poplar Ding Lingling was already quite proficient in the mechanism settings in the tomb, so the mechanisms in those tombs were successfully cracked by Poplar Ding Lingling.
As a result, the old experts in the archaeological team who felt that Baiyang and the others were too young couldn't help but look at these young people with admiration.
Because of the discovery of those tombs, the tomb of the emperor of Nanzhao was characterized by several old experts as the largest emperor tomb discovered in recent years.
Unfortunately, some of the tombs and cultural relics were damaged by the earthquake, and according to several old experts, it will take at least a few months to completely organize and excavate this tomb.
Bai Yang and the others had not received other tasks anyway, so they simply accompanied the archaeological team to sort out and excavate the tomb of the emperor of Nanzhaoguo.
Archaeology may seem boring on the surface, but after putting in the effort, you will find that there are too many things to study.
Poplar is now fully immersed in it, and every day feels refreshed and full of fun.
Iron Bull actually couldn't bear it, but with Hongxing and Poplar here, he didn't show a sense of boredom, and he didn't do everything like before.
It's just that for him, this is a job that requires time and energy, unlike Poplar, who has gradually taken archaeology as a kind of enjoyment.
Every two days, Poplar takes the iron ox back to the mountain for a turn, especially after half a month, the excavation of the tomb of Emperor Nanzhao gradually enters the second stage, which requires more meticulous and more patience, unlike the first stage where everyone is busy.
Considering that the small cutter was also about to arrive, Bai Yang simply moved to the mountain with Tie Niu and the two of them after consulting Ding Sicheng, and had to go around the ice crack a few times every day, and rest in the col where he had camped before.
I didn't want to take precautions, but something still happened.
Early that morning, the Poplar Iron Ox had just woken up from the campsite, and at first felt a slight vibration under his feet, followed by a "creaking" sound in his ears.
The two of them thought it was a small earthquake that caused the ice to collapse and avalanche, and they didn't pay much attention to it at first.
When I ate something and went up the mountain, I saw that I could see the ice lake under the ice crack leading to the Ice Palace, and suddenly a roar came into my ears.
It was the cry of the snowman, and it seemed that the snowman was fighting with something.
Poplar Iron Bull's first thought was that the two young Snow Amber were fighting the snowman again, so the two hurriedly quickened their pace and climbed up the mountain beam.
Looking into the distance, I saw that above the ice lake, there were two black shadows fighting with the tall and strong snowman, and there was another black shadow lying on the surface of the ice lake, and I don't know whether it was killed by the snowman or knocked unconscious.
Poplar Tie Niu said secretly, "It's not good", Tie Niu said hurriedly: "What's the matter? These people suddenly appeared here, wouldn't it be that they had entered the Ice Palace through the ice crack while we were sleeping at night?"
When Tie Niu spoke, Poplar had already spread his feet and ran towards the ice lake, so Tie Niu's words were actually being said while running.
Poplar naturally ignored him, and just quickly approached the two sides of the man and beast who were fighting.
The snowman first spotted the Poplar Iron Ox, which was the same rival as the Poplar Iron Ox, and couldn't help but roar angrily, and suddenly raised his arm to knock one of the black shadows away, leaving the other black shadow behind, and rushed towards the Poplar Iron Ox.
Poplar saw the snowman approaching with ferocity, while another dark shadow turned its head to look at them, and immediately pulled its feet and sped away along the edge of the ice lake.
Poplar immediately shouted: "Old black, I'll stop the snowman, you go after the man in black!"
Iron Bull agreed, and immediately turned around to chase the black shadow.
Poplar collides with the snowman.
Seeing the man and the beast running closer and closer, the snowman roared angrily and raised his arm to sweep towards the poplar.
Poplar leans back with his feet in front of him and back, dodging the snowman's sweeping arms, but his whole body slides down the ice from between the snowman's legs to the snowman's back.
Before the snowman could stop and turn around, Poplar spun around on the ice, and his hands stretched out and twisted one of the snowman's calves.
If the others would never dare to make such a move, because even if he twisted the snowman's calf, with the snowman's height and strength, he would never be able to knock the snowman down, but would be kicked out by the snowman.
But after all, Poplar is far from being comparable to ordinary people, and his strength is certainly not as good as that of the snowman, but the snowman was running forward, and he suddenly arrived behind the snowman, and the snowman was urgently braking and stopping and turning around, so the snowman was already a little unstable on his feet, and then he was twisted by Poplar at this juncture.
The snowman roared involuntarily, and his huge body threw forward, only to hear a loud "plop" sound, and was pulled by the poplar and fell face to the ground.
Poplar made a feat in one fell swoop and immediately threw himself on the snowman's back, and before the snowman could get up, Poplar swung out with his fists and slammed it on the temples on both sides of the snowman.
The snowman let out a wail, put his hands on the ground violently, and lifted his whole body up, and immediately lifted the poplar straight out.
Poplar rolled and half-squatted up, and then looked at the snowman, who was staggering to his feet.
Poplar was on alert and waiting for the snowman to attack him, but although the snowman was not knocked unconscious by his fists, he was still a little staggering and unsteady on his feet.
In addition, it has some blood stains on its body, and it is obvious that it has fought with several men in black before, and the men in black have used weapons and slashed many wounds on the snowman.
Poplar cherished this cherished creature after all, and was unwilling to attack again while it was not on its feet, but just half-crouched on the ground, waiting to see what happened to the snowman next.
The snowman shook a few times, shook his head vigorously, and finally sobered up a little, it seemed to know that the aspen was not an easy one to deal with, and could not help but roar and scream, and jumped on the ground a few times, suddenly turned around and jumped a few times, and soon turned over a mountain beam and disappeared.
Poplar breathed a sigh of relief and immediately went to inspect the two men who had been knocked to the ground by the snowman.
He found that the two men were all dressed in black, and they also had a black scarf on their faces, obviously hiding their identities and not wanting people to see them.
But in this snowy mountain, who are they afraid of seeing?
Poplar pondered in his heart, and while lifting the masked towel of one of them, he saw that the man's entire face was sunken inward, and it was estimated that he was punched in the face by the snowman, and he lost his life at that time.
The other man appeared to be in his forties, with a white and thin face, blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, and although he was still breathing, he appeared to be seriously injured.
But it's no wonder that the snowman is tall and strong, and every punch weighs a thousand catties, even if he and Tie Niu have eaten immortal medicine and golden python gall, but if he is hit and kicked by the snowman, I am afraid it will be difficult to bear it.
Poplar squatted down, just as he wanted to see if the man was still saved, when he suddenly heard two gunshots in his ears.
Poplar was taken aback, jumped up and ran towards the gunshot, but stopped after only two steps.
Thinking that with Tie Niu's ability, no one could shoot Tie Niu down with just two shots, and since there was no third gunshot, it was likely that Tie Niu pulled out his gun and shot down the person he was chasing.
So Poplar turned around again, crouched down again beside the badly wounded black-clad masked man, and reached out to pick him up.
Seeing that there was still blood oozing from the corner of the man's mouth, Poplar wiped it with his sleeve, and then called softly: "Hey, hey, wake up!"
The man barely opened his eyes and glanced at Poplar in a daze.
Seeing his situation, Bai Yang was afraid that he would not survive, so he hurriedly hurried up and asked him: "Why did you come to the Snow Mountain so early, have you entered the Snow God Palace?"
The man's eyes were half-squinted, and when he heard Poplar mention the Snow God Palace, the man's eyes widened in fright.
Bai Yang was afraid that he would be angry, so he hurriedly rubbed his chest for him, and asked him again: "Who are you, what is your name, and is it from some inverted fighting sect?"
The man did not answer Poplar's question, but with a look of misery on his face, he muttered, "All dead......, all dead!" Know the daytime...... There are people patrolling the mountains, but they can only ...... Got into the ...... in the dark Snow God Palace, who knows...... That stone box, that stone box......"
He just said that the most important place was to shut up and close his eyes, as if he was really dead.
In a hurry, Poplar had to shake it slightly, and he asked again, "How is the stone box?
"Smash?" the man tried to open his eyes and glance at the poplar, a wry smile on his face, "We...... Didn't smash, we ...... No need to smash, just ...... Ice Palace...... Or collapsed, we ...... Just a few...... Escape fast enough......"
His voice grew lower and lower until his lips stopped moving.
Anxious, Poplar shook and shouted, "Hey, hey, wake up!", but the man never moved in the slightest.
And his body quickly became stiff.
