PFC Chapter 461: Earthworm Python
Chapter 461: Earthworm Python
"Is that... a fragment of cultural relics from the Warring States Period? I remember there wasn't any in this cave before?" Hu Jizhou looked at the fragments on the ground in disbelief, and then looked at Li Mengzhe's face.
Although his tomb-robbing skills are not as great as Qin An's!
His knowledge is not as broad as Qin An's!
But he could still tell which dynasty the cultural relics belonged to.
All of a sudden!
An absurd and bold idea appeared in Hu Jizhou's mind, that is, Li Mengzhe stole the cultural relics from the Warring States tomb, and there happened to be a red centipede in the cultural relics!
Once this thought appeared in Hu Jizhou's mind...he could no longer get rid of it.
Correct!
The truth must be this!
No... I still need to confirm it first.
Think of this.
Hu Jizhou gently placed Meng Yu on the ground, then walked towards the pile of cultural relics fragments with a gloomy look. Li Mengzhe naturally saw Hu Jizhou's actions out of the corner of his eye.
He closed his eyes helplessly.
But soon!
Hu Jizhou's emotionless voice echoed in the cave: "Junior Brother... I feel like I've seen this pile of debris somewhere before. It seems to be the white jade gourd we searched for the mechanism before! But how did it appear here?"
Hear the words.
Li Mengzhe's heart sank to the bottom.
His lips trembled as he spoke, "It was me...I stole this white jade gourd from this cave and wanted to give it to my junior sister. I never imagined that a crimson centipede would crawl out of it and bite my junior sister."
"Fuck you!"
Hu Jizhou stepped forward and slapped Li Mengzhe in the face.
"Snapped--"
After the slap.
Li Mengzhe's face was visibly red and swollen!
Can be imagined.
The force of Hu Jizhou's slap was so great!
"I've told you time and again... We're not tomb robbers! You still stole artifacts from the Warring States tomb?"
Speaking of urgent matters.
Hu Jizhou raised his hand and slapped Li Mengzhe in the face again!
"Snapped--"
But this time it was the other side that was drawn.
Qin An nodded approvingly.
This time, Li Mengzhe's face was finally symmetrically red and swollen! Qin An couldn't stand it because only one side was red and swollen just now!
"Do you know why I slapped you the second time?"
Hu Jizhou asked a soul-searching question.
Li Mengzhe's mouth was swollen and he couldn't speak, but he still squeezed out a few words: "I know... because I didn't save my junior sister."
Hear this.
Hu Jizhou was so angry that he poked Li Mengzhe on the head with his finger!
"You still know? I thought you didn't know! When something happened, all you could think about was what you should do! Did you help your junior sister call for help? Did you help her pull the centipede out?"
"Ask yourself... Consider our Junior Sister's personality! If you were willing to help her pull the centipede out! She would never tell us about this until her death... because she's afraid others will know you stole artifacts from the Warring States tomb!"
When Hu Jizhou said this.
Li Mengzhe was already in tears, with tears as big as soybeans dripping onto the ground.
"Hold those crocodile tears...and don't even think about jumping off a cliff to commit suicide! Apologize to your junior sister when she wakes up. If she encounters any danger in the future, remember to protect her. You owe it to her."
Hu Jizhou was actually afraid that Li Mengzhe could not withstand the blow.
He was advised in a roundabout way not to be depressed and to keep his life to atone for his sins.
After resolving internal conflicts.
Hu Jizhou looked at Qin An hesitantly and said:
"Brother Qin An...we'll compensate you for this white jade gourd, but can we pay in installments?"
Qin An said expressionlessly, "Last year, a jade figurine carved from white jade from the Warring States Period was sold in Hong Kong for 400 million steamed buns. How many installments do you plan to pay for it?"
Hu Jizhou looked embarrassed.
Qin An said calmly, "No need to pay it back... I'll discuss with Academician Jiang and deduct it from my dividends."
Hear this.
Hu Jizhou insisted on returning it.
But Qin An ignored him. He picked up Meng Yu, who was still unconscious on the ground, and said, "I'll take Meng Yu down first. You two can come down the mountain path by yourselves."
Hu Jizhou thanked him repeatedly!
After Qin An carried Meng Yu and walked quickly down the mountain road, Hu Jizhou then carefully pulled Li Mengzhe, who was in tears, up the mountain road.
...............
The archaeological team walked very slowly!
It took them a full forty to fifty minutes to get down to the bottom of the cliff. The bottom of the cliff was very large. If it weren't for the dark ceiling of the tomb above their heads, the archaeological team would have thought they were walking in a valley!
Meng Yu also slowly woke up from his coma.
Qin An's blood has regenerative ability!
Therefore, the injury on Meng Yu's left arm was almost healed soon, because the four people in the cave before were silent about what had just happened.
So the rest of the archaeological team tactfully did not ask any further questions.
They don’t know what Meng Yu has been through?
Why did you faint?
After resting on the spot and recovering some strength, the archaeological team stood up and walked forward. The bottom of the cliff was dozens of meters wide, and there were scattered human bones in the corners!
Everyone spontaneously walked forward in a group...for fear that there might be some filthy creature in there that could eat people!
Li Mengzhe walked behind the archaeological team.
He looked at Meng Yu's back in front of him and wanted to apologize to her... but he had no opportunity and didn't know how to start!
The group walked forward leisurely for seven or eight minutes.
Then I saw a faint green light coming out of the corner in front of the canyon. The green light was not dazzling, but rather gentle.
Qin An quickly ordered the archaeological team to turn off the military flashlights above their heads.
For a while.
The canyon fell into darkness.
"Brother Qin An...what is that thing that glows in front? Could it be a night pearl?" Yang Lele had seen a candle that could self-ignite in the tomb of King Qi before.
Therefore, I am quite curious about these glowing things!
Qin An shook his head and said, "It can't be a night-shining pearl... The premise for a night-shining pearl to glow is that it must absorb enough light during the day and emit a faint green light at night."
"How about we just move forward quietly and see... maybe it's just a false alarm?" Hawkeye suggested.
This proposal was approved by everyone!
They walked forward cautiously...until they reached the corner ahead!
Everyone could see the source of the green light clearly - they saw a giant python that was 18 meters long, coiled up and dozing in an altar, which was full of white bones.
But what puzzled everyone was that this giant python actually had feet!
And it looks like the foot of a centipede... There are inscriptions engraved on the giant python's body, and the faint and gentle green light comes from the inscriptions on its body.
