Although Xiao Li was wearing a mask, he immediately turned his head to avoid it, and then raised the torch and shone it over. Everyone's eyes also turned along with the torches, and suddenly they all opened their mouths that were originally covered!

There was no one inside the coffin.

"Xiao Li, danger! Get out of the way! ”

Just when Xiao Li just turned his head, a student saw the frightening scene in the coffin and screamed.

When Xiao Li heard this, he immediately made a conditioned reflex, his body hurriedly retreated, he walked in a hurry, and fell to the ground with a plop. The soft whip in Xu Shan's hand flew out and hit the ancient monster inside the coffin.

The students shot Xu Shan to death the black bugs in the coffin, and then raised torches to investigate.

"It turned out to be a few black centipedes, who shouted just now, scared me a lot, I thought there were corpse maggots again!" After seeing the situation clearly, one student touched his chest, still a little frightened.

Xu Shan put away the soft whip in his hand, and there were several black millipedes tied to it, they were not dead yet, they were dying. Black-brown blood flowed from the centipede's physical strength and dripped onto the sand. Everyone could clearly smell a foul smell.

"Don't take it lightly, although this centipede is not a corpse maggot, it is also a poisonous parasite that feeds on corpse bones for a living. There must have been a hole under the coffin that it had bitten out of, and they used it to get in and out of the coffin. ”

Professor Wang stopped a few students from trying to get closer to observe the centipede. When Xu Shan heard this, he immediately waved the soft whip in his hand, completely tore the centipedes into pieces, and then cleaned up the soft whip with sand.

Solving the danger, Xiao Li got up again, carefully inspected the coffin with a torch, and never found any centipedes again. Only then did everyone's eyes refocus on the bones.

In the light of the fire, everyone could see that inside the coffin was a strange corpse, and the long skull showed that it was not a human skeleton.

"Professor, this is ......" Xiao Li wanted to speak and stopped, seemingly unsure.

"That's right, this is the loyal sacrificial coffin of the Guloulan people. It is to use some favorite animals of the owner to bury him after his death. The same is true of the funerary objects in our Han culture, and there is nothing to make a fuss about. Professor Wang said indifferently.

"As far as I know, burial objects are generally buried with their owners, so why do the Guloulan people bury their pets in a coffin alone?" Pang Weimin put forward his different opinions.

Although of course he didn't understand it, he grew up learning classical Chinese, and slowly understood the meaning of memorizing words when he was a child. There is a passage that mentions the cultural tradition of burial.

"Wei Min asked a very good question, which is also one of the topics we need to clarify in this archaeological project. Xiao Li, continue to clean the coffin. Remember, kill the worm when you see it. Professor Wang nodded at Pang Weimin, and then motioned for the excavation to continue.

Pang Weimin didn't say anything, although he touched a soft nail, he didn't take it to heart, maybe Professor Wang really didn't know why this happened, if he continued to break the casserole and ask the end, he would lose Professor Wang's prestige if he couldn't say it, which was obviously inappropriate.

Xiao Li was also very disappointed in his heart, and it turned out to be a funeral coffin for most of the day. It looks like a camel. It's just that it's much larger than the current camels.

Judging from the bones in the coffin, the camel struggled violently before it died, and it seems that it was reborn and stuffed into the coffin after being made alive and half dead, and this wave of operation is also very cruel.

I searched for it, but apparently found nothing.

"Professor, this is purely a funerary coffin, and no valuable artifacts have been found." Xiao Li took off his mask and looked at Professor Wang.

"Since there is a funeral coffin, it means that there must be a main coffin here, everyone take a break, eat some dinner and continue to clean along the funeral coffin, I think there will be some discoveries. Perhaps, we have touched the edge of a great treasure. ”

Professor Wang looked at the somewhat depressed crowd and cheered up, and his words really worked, and these students imagined standing in front of a treasure buried deep in the ground for thousands of years that had not yet been discovered, and their sluggish emotions were instantly ignited.

Bahar has already begun to bury the pot to make rice, of course, boil some boiling water, sprinkle in salt, monosodium glutamate, dried green onions and pickled vegetable leaves, add some frangipani to make a pot of soup, and then everyone eats the dry food. Not to mention, in Pang Weimin's opinion, this soup tastes really good.

"In the next excavation work, we must pay attention to the corpse maggots or black centipedes in the coffin, whether there is or not, we must dodge immediately after opening the coffin, and we can only observe it up close after seeing the situation inside, do you understand?"

After dinner, Professor Wang summoned everyone to start the next step and expand the scope of the cleanup. He vaguely felt that he had stepped on good fortune, and he must have touched the edge of the treasure, but the precautions must be emphasized, he could not afford another loss of personnel.

And most importantly, so far, they have gained very little. The sacrifice of a Xiao Cheng basically offset the value of the beads of the Loulan female corpse, so under the premise that no cultural relics were found, it was resolutely impossible to have casualties.

The well-fed students began to clean the sand around the coffin. Compared with traditional soil burials in the Central Plains, sand burial coffins are not easy to scab over, so they are much easier to clean.

Soon a large amount of sand was thrown by the students onto the sand of the excavation pit, followed by a cry of surprise:

"Professor, we've found a coffin here, and it looks like there's more than one!"

"Oh my God, we have a coffin here, with three horns exposed!"

"I have it on my side, maybe a row!"

"Coffins, coffins, so many coffins!"

Pang Weimin and Zhao Aiguo's group also found coffins, and the discovery of so many coffins made him a little nervous in his heart, are there treasures buried in these coffins, or is there an unknown danger hidden?
