Chapter 108: The High Priest in the Sarcophagus

Professor Harris has a point, and it is also mentioned in the Epic of Gilgamesh that a flood is about Ennier, the king of the gods of the two river basins, who used the flood to destroy mankind. There was no need for the ancient Mayans, and in such a pyramid, painting fake frescoes, there was no point. ”

"I don't know, where is the high priest's burial chamber, is it in the depths of this pyramid? ”

"Without professional equipment, it is difficult to enter, and this pyramid is in an underground river, and there is no way to bring a lot of modern detection equipment. ”

When it comes to the high priest's burial chamber, everyone expresses regret.

The six explorers, while observing the mural.

I was also listening to the discussions of the dozens of researchers through the communicator.

One of the explorers, subconsciously holding a flashlight with a strong light, swept the entire temple, and his gaze moved.

Soon, he stopped, only to see a huge sarcophagus not far away.

Just now, everyone's attention was attracted by the story of the exquisite murals on this wall, and they didn't notice at all that in the corner of the temple, there was a sarcophagus.

This sarcophagus, not far away, is not known for thousands of years.

"There's a sarcophagus there......"

Among the underground priests, many archaeologists are regretting that it is not easy to find the tomb of the high priest in such a large pyramid.

At this moment, suddenly from the communicator, there was an exclamation.

The voice of the discussion fell silent for a moment.

After a few moments, Professor Harris spoke, "Sarcophagus, where's it? ”

Soon, a huge sarcophagus appeared on the screen.

This sarcophagus is in the corner of this temple.

"The high priest must be among them. ”

"Why is he not in the burial chamber, but in the temple at the top?"

The mural says that he is guarding the pyramid rather than being buried in it, and in this temple, it is also reasonable, and it may have been his request. ”

"The high priest has a high status among the tribes of the ancient Maya, no one is matched, and his prestige is even higher than that of their leader, and it is estimated that the high priest is the descendant of the group of people who controlled the spaceship back then. ”

The atmosphere became enthusiastic, and everyone discussed with each other and was very excited.

"Take a closer look at ......"

Someone reminded.

The six explorers, also full of curiosity, walked towards the sarcophagus.

Before they could get closer, the six of them discovered a situation.

The stone cover on the sarcophagus was tilted, revealing the gaps, and was not tightly covered.

"There's a crack in the sarcophagus that isn't tightly covered?"

One of the explorers discovered this problem first, and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"It seems to be. ”

"Professor Harris, there's a crack in this sarcophagus......"

The explorers asked Professor Harris if there was any explanation for this anomaly in the Mayan civilization.

"This is also normal, since the high priest is guarding this mausoleum, the sarcophagus is not tightly covered, revealing a gap, it is estimated that the high priest can peek through this gap and peek into the outside scene. ”

A young paleoanthropologist next to Professor Harris gave this explanation.

One of the explorers said in a trembling voice, "When you say that, I always feel that there are a pair of eyes peeping at us in those cracks? ”

"The high priest doesn't know that he has been dead for thousands of years, and he doesn't know if the bones still exist or not, so what can be terrible. ”

After discovering this gap, everyone didn't have the heart to observe what this sarcophagus was like.

"I'll see what is going on in that sarcophagus, and whether the high priest's body is still there. ”

One of the explorers, holding a flashlight, walked the fastest.

On the screen, you can clearly see him, and he walked quickly to the side of the sarcophagus.

Take a flashlight and shine it inside.

"Ah......h

I only heard an exclamation, and the explorer, the bright flashlight in his hand, fell directly, and he fell to the ground, and then kept retreating.

Everyone's attention is on him.

His scream scared everyone a lot.

I only saw that under the camera, this explorer's face was bloodless and pale as paper...... The two-eyed boss had constricted pupils, obviously frightened.

"What's going on, what's going on?"

One of the explorers hurried over to help him.

"Yes...... Someone...... The man in this sarcophagus, alive, he lives......"

The voice was shaking, and there was a crying tone.

The explorers are all people with excellent psychological quality.

Being scared like this, you can imagine.

Living?

The atmosphere of the scene suddenly became weird.

A moment later, one of the explorers broke the weirdness, "This pyramid doesn't know how there are still living people in the underground for thousands of years?"

"Don't believe it, see for yourselves, it's really alive. ”

The explorer who had fallen to the ground had not yet fully recovered his senses.

Soon, another explorer cautiously walked to the gap in the sarcophagus.

Looking inside, there is no need for a flashlight at all.

Because the light source in the hand of the first explorer had just fallen into the gap in the sarcophagus.

This explorer, at a glance, also had an expression that instantly stiffened and became a little pale.

But instead of being frightened, he sat down, but stared.

After a long while, it seems that the situation has finally come to terms with this.

"Actually, it's really like a living person. ”

"Incredible, incredible. ”

"This is Atlantis technology?"

"What's going on?"

"Come and see. ”

Several people came closer, at first with the same shock, but soon came to their senses.

Their eyes widened in amazement.

"It's amazing. ”

"For thousands of years, it was like falling asleep. ”

"This is the way to preserve the body...... Is it Atlantis technology?"

Professor Harris, looking at the performance of these explorers, "What's going on, what have you found in the sarcophagus."

"Professor, it's incredible, it's like you're asleep. ”

"Everyone is prepared that this man is as alive. ”

Explorers, remind Harris to teach them to be mentally prepared.

Soon, the camera was adjusted, and through the gap, the scene inside the sarcophagus completely appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

I only saw a person lying in the sarcophagus, he was wearing a crystal mask.

The crystal mask is only half the size of a human face, and under the refraction of the crystal mask, it looks a little hideous, and it is impossible to see the real appearance, his exposed skin is ruddy and shiny, and his eyes are closed, looking like a person who has just fallen asleep.

The flashlight that had just fallen into it fell right next to his head.

There is a mixture of light and dark, and there is something terrifying.

ps: In other words, the high priest has not yet given a name, but in addition to the gods of Quetzalcoatl and the sun god, are there any famous people in the ancient Maya? Or in some heroic legends, are there any well-known Mayans...... Let's just say that if I don't have it, I'll make it up casually, or I won't be named, and I'll talk about it later.
