Chapter 1349 I’m Afraid You’ll Break My Hand…
“Wow, such a huge Dragon-breaking Stone!”
“It’s several times bigger than the previous one.”
“How could he open this door?”
“Awesome. A master? No! He’s the Supreme Master of Wulin!”
!!
“A miracle worker for our country.”
Everyone applauded and exclaimed.
At the front of the crowd…
The archaeological captain stared at Fang Qiu and muttered with sparkling eyes, “A real expert! A rarity. In the future, before we explore another big tomb, I will ask the government to send him over to help. In this way, we can save a lot of time.”
“It’s amazing that we managed to find such a big tomb. We may need a good luck fairy to discover another one.”
Lu Jinzhou said.
“You’re right.”
The archaeological captain nodded knowingly.
As he spoke…
The archaeological captain led the whole team through the gate and walked inside.
“There are coffin chambers inside. Be careful, everyone. Don’t touch anything, no matter what you see.”
As they moved forward, the archaeological captain pointed to the passages on both sides and said, “There should be satellite coffin chambers for those who were buried with the tomb owner and storage rooms on both sides.”
With this…
He walked in.
This tomb chamber was not big. There was nothing but a coffin inside.
These experts walked around the coffin.
“This coffin chamber should be made for a woman.”
“Satellite coffin chambers for women are not rare in ancient times. We can tell from the style of the coffin.”
“Generally speaking, the tomb owner should either be very powerful or of a noble status since there is a coffin chamber for a woman to be buried along with the owner!”Please visit fr𝐞𝐞wn.𝒸o𝔪 website to read fastest update
“This great tomb seems remarkable.”
The experts looked around and immediately brought everyone out of this satellite coffin chamber. Then they continued to take the others to go further inside.
As a result…
Within the depths on both sides of the tomb passage, they discovered five similar-sized chambers.
“Apart from the first satellite tomb chamber for a woman, there are no coffins in the other chambers. There are only some ancient burial articles and bronze items.”
However, as soon as they found these ancient treasures, the experts of the archaeological team immediately took out ropes and ringed off the area to prevent anyone from touching these things.
Like before…
While looking around, the archaeological captain explained the situation inside to everyone.
Soon…
They finished exploring the few chambers.
Under the guidance of the archaeological captain, they went all the way to the deepest part of the tomb — the last tomb chamber was there.
Unlike other chambers, this one had a wide entrance several times larger than those small-scale ones.
Apart from that, it was the only tomb chamber with a door.
The door was different from the stone gates they encountered outside.
This was an enormous bronze door!
The door was very high.
There were some blurry patterns on it.
When everyone got very close it…
They were greatly shocked by this bronze gate.
The door was excessively big.
Even the door of this main tomb chamber was larger than other chambers.
“A bronze gate! This is a bronze gate!”
In the crowd, an extremely excited voice suddenly sounded.
The experts of the archaeological research team fixed their eyes on this bronze door.
They were also very thrilled.
This meant that the main coffin chamber must be extraordinary.
“Open, open the door.”
The archaeological captain immediately stepped forward and tried to push the door open, but he failed.
Helplessly…
He could only quickly turn to look at Fang Qiu.
The others began looking around with their flashlights.
In the end…
They finished searching the entire chamber.
The members of the archaeological team were ecstatic and laughed gleefully. Lu Jinzhou taught the students along the way, talking about bronze wares, jade coffins, various burial items, and so on. He seemed to be giving a lecture here.
Their survey was done.
“King Chu’s Tomb!”
The archaeological captain stated excitedly, “It’s almost certain that this is an ancient tomb of a Chu State King. However, without an in-depth investigation, we don’t know the exact generation of this king.”
Everyone heard that.
They exclaimed one after another.
“King Chu’s Tomb?”
“We’re so lucky. The first tomb we visited belonged to a king.”
“No wonder the tomb owner had a jade coffin.”
“Well, I have to say the quality of this jade looks so poor. It is a little opaque and has many impurities.”
“In that era, it was rare and luxurious enough to have a coffin made of this kind of jade. Besides, this coffin was made out of a whole piece of jade. Think about it: how large would the original jade have to be in order for them to carve out such a coffin?”
After the tour…
Everyone felt shocked.
This was not an ordinary tomb. This was King Chu’s tomb.
Members of the archaeological team and Lu Jinzhou were delirious with delight.
“The discovery of the tomb of King Chu will shock the entire world.”
“That’s right. This is a scientific investigation of great value!”
Everyone talked excitedly about this discovery.
While the others were discussing animatedly…
In high spirits, the archaeological captain walked to Fang Qiu. Before he said anything, he reached out to hold Fang Qiu’s hand. “Thank you so much. I want to thank you on behalf of the National Academy of Archaeology. Thank you for saving the lives of our team members. Thank you for bringing us here. With your great help, we were able to see the true features of this tomb. Thank you.”
As soon as he finished speaking…
Without waiting for Fang Qiu’s response, the archaeological captain quickly withdrew his hand as if he had touched boiling water.
“Eh?”
Fang Qiu was stunned.
“Well…”
The archaeological captain smiled awkwardly and said, “Don’t take it to heart. You have great strength in your hands. I was afraid you might accidentally break my hand.”
His words came as a surprise.
Fang Qiu couldn’t help shaking his head with a wry smile.
“Well, the survey is over. Now, follow Lu Jinzhou and Fang Qiu. Let’s go back the way we came.”
Members of the expedition team did not gather together like before. Instead, they spread out to observe and monitor the others for fear that these people would take something out of the tomb.
Fortunately…
Along the way, no one played any dirty tricks.
Soon, they returned to the outer tomb passage and were close to the mechanism of flipping planks.
“Oh, crap!”
As soon as they reached the mechanism, Lu Jinzhou, who led the way, immediately stopped and said in a panic, “A section of the tomb before us has caved in. The tomb passage is blocked.”
The archaeological captain heard that…
He instantly rushed forward.
“It wasn’t caused by quicksand.”
After careful observation, the archaeological captain said, “After a long time, the ground surface changed. In addition, someone had dug a hole there. As a result, the surface collapsed. The place ahead must have been buried. Fortunately, this is an outer tomb passage, and there is nothing worth studying.”
“But how can we get out?”
A student asked in a panic, “If the tomb passage has collapsed, there will be no way out, right?”
“Contact the people outside.”
The archaeological captain immediately turned on the walkie-talkie but could not find any signal.
“Don’t worry, everyone. We have people outside. When they see that the tomb passage had collapsed, they will call for help instantly.”
Lu Jinzhou said.
“But there is not much air left inside the tomb. And there is corpse poison and bacteria. How long can we hold on?”
A student asked.
Everyone heard what he said.
All of a sudden, they started to feel alarmed.
“Let me see what I can do.”
Fang Qiu came forward. He activated his internal Qi to cover his hands and started digging with his bare hands.
