Sumu wood in the quadrangle welcomes spring
Chapter 425: Saved by Kindness
The four gangs of tomb robbers that were chased all the way were collectively wiped out.
This incident really scared the scientific expedition team.
Yet they all breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
"The fact that they fired shots but still died in the end shows that the enemy was not only more powerful than them, but also better equipped."
Shirley Yang analyzed calmly.
Since the four people had all the weapons and equipment in their gang, and their bodies were not looted after their death, this is enough to explain some problems.
Only Su Mu glanced obscurely in the direction of the dead body sitting with its back against the stone.
The scientific expedition team is indeed an officially recognized tomb-robbing gang. Although they don't have much experience in looting, they are rich in theoretical knowledge and are not at all polite in their actions.
Four assembled AK47s and some ammunition.
Wang Kaixuan, who was obviously more professional, only grabbed one, and the rest were taken away by others.
Chu Jian gave one to Su Mu, and he himself used the single-shot semi-automatic carbine that originally belonged to the fat man.
Hu Bayi casually picked up the backpack next to the corpse.
In this respect, he is not as good as Wang Kaixuan.
While the fat man was licking the explosive pack, he pulled it open and looked at it several times. If that strange black snake was hiding, he would definitely find it.
But Hu Bayi seemed to have never thought about this question at all.
Su Mu thought about it and felt that this lesson was still necessary.
It's because he lacks experience.
The tomb-robbing experience of these two people at this time was the tomb of a Liao general in Ganggangyingzi.
It is always a good thing to be more cautious about strange things and have a little more respect for the underground world governed by metaphysics.
Professor Hao Aiguo was also trying his best to lick his equipment.
He rummaged through the bags of several tomb robbers and found the mummies they had stolen, as well as several people's water bottles.
The expedition team could have gotten through this area safely.
If the camel dares to move...
Unfortunately, Professor Hao Aiguo was too greedy.
He had clearly taken the water bottles for three people, but when he was about to turn around, he found the last water bottle on the waist of the sitting corpse.
He ripped it twice and heard the sound of water shaking in the kettle.
Judging from the sound, it's obviously more than half a pot.
"Water, more water. Keep it to replenish Xiaoye's moisture so that she can hold on longer..."
Before he could finish his words, a black tongue with red blood streaks came out with its tongue sticking out.
The snake's body is winding and its head is erect.
Everyone subconsciously held their breath.
Su Mu found that Professor Hao Aiguo was completely frozen.
I guess he is confused at this moment.
Su Mu sighed to himself.
Considering that the fundamental reason why he encountered this disaster was to find water for Ye Shuxin.
Just save his life.
The black snake head has two small black and red wings. If you only look at the snake head without looking at the snake's body, it looks a bit like a fat little bat.
Su Mu knew that once he touched this thing, it would be fatal.
The snake's body suddenly bounced up in mid-air, and Hu Bayi's engineering shovel suddenly fell down, splitting the snake's body into two.
The red light that was flickering all over the black snake dimmed and disappeared.
Everyone subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, including Professor Hao Aiguo who was slumped on the ground.
He exhaled suddenly, turned to Professor Chen and others, and said, "Fortunately, fortunately, I almost..."
A red light suddenly flashed at the snake's head, and the snake's head shot out with the shaking of its wings, heading straight for Professor Hao Aiguo's neck.
Because he turned his head to speak, his neck was naturally exposed.
boom!
A stone appeared out of nowhere and blew up the snake's head.
"what!"
Hao Aiguo reacted and crawled back with all his might on all fours and buttocks, crawling more than two meters away.
"What kind of snake is this? It's still alive even after death and can bite people before dying..."
"The key is that the last bite bounced back. How did you do that?"
"It's terrible. Thanks to Brother Su."
"Yes, yes, Professor Hao almost..."
"Old Hu, don't move."
Amidst the crowd's voices of relief and joy, Wang Kaixuan's suppressed and nervous voice suddenly rang out.
Then, everyone held their breath again and returned to the posture they were in before Professor Hao's death.
Hu Bayi froze.
Although he didn't see it, he heard the sound of the black snake spitting out its tongue.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of Wang Kaixuan pulling the gun safety was heard.
This voice was all too familiar to him.
It’s just that the fat guy’s position is a bit awkward compared to him, at the right rear.
The satchel was on Hu Bayi's left shoulder, and the black snake poked its head out of the backpack.
Same posture, almost the same distance.
This time there was no Hu Bayi's military shovel prepared because the target victim had changed to him.
Shirley Yang held the pistol, her position was pretty good, but her shooting skills were beyond the reach of this group of people.
Hu Bayi subconsciously wanted to look for Su Mu.
But he didn't seem worried at all, and was observing his shoulder with interest.
I guess he was looking at the black snake.
Hu Bayi could already see the black snake's head spreading its little wings out of the corner of his eye.
Quite terrifying and creepy.
For some reason, Hu Bayi felt much calmer after seeing Brother Su Mu's condition.
He murmured in a low voice: "Fatty, please don't beat me into a sieve..."
Haha~
The black snake leaned back and ejected.
I don't know if it's a fixed move, it's so close, but he has to step back and then shoot...
Su Mu and Shirley Yang were given ample opportunities.
Click.
The flash flashed and the black snake fell to the ground inexplicably.
boom!boom!
Pa~!
The gunshot was fired by Shirley Yang.
With a snap, the black snake's head exploded.
Shizi'er is Su Mu's magical power of snapping fingers.
At this moment, Hu Bayi's experience and qualities were revealed.
He shook his shoulders and dropped the backpack he was carrying on the ground far away.
What if there are one or two more of these things in there?
For safety reasons, it is better to throw it out first and then check it slowly.
"Don't think that their deaths were caused by humans. There are countless strange things and weird creatures in this world. You should always be respectful and cautious. It's not wrong to be too cautious."
Su Mu took the opportunity to scold Hu Bayi.
Hu Bayi accepted the advice humbly and nodded repeatedly.
Even if this incident had not happened, Hu Bayi would not have dared to refute the lesson taught by Big Brother Su Mu.
He will definitely obey and do as he is told.
Because only by listening to Su Mu can you live longer.
What's more, he learned a lesson this time and was on the verge of life and death.
He gritted his teeth and decided that next time he went down to the tomb with Fatty, he would be extra careful, extra cautious, extra cautious and even more cautious.
The sound of Anliman calling the camel came from far away.
"Brother, are they okay again?"
"I don't know either~ Xiaohong and the others suddenly started to leave, I don't know why~"
"It seems that there are only two strange snakes in this place. If the snakes are dead, the camels will no longer be afraid."
Shirley Yang thought for a moment and said.
"Let's not stay here. Let's leave this place quickly. It's too weird and too dangerous."
Everyone followed suit and rode non-stop through the place where the tomb-robbing gang rested.
Even the mummies brought out from the stone tombs earlier, no one mentioned them at this moment. No one had time to look around.
When it comes to cultural relics and archaeology, one's own life is obviously more important.
Professor Hao Aiguo was so frightened that he needed Satipeng's support to walk. His legs were obviously very weak and he couldn't recover even after walking more than 1000 meters.
After walking and stopping for more than an hour.
As the morning glow began to appear, a ray of light slowly rose from the east, in the area between the scientific expedition team and the eastern light.
There are ruins of a city half-buried in the yellow sand.
In the very middle, there is a towering building with a stone sculpture on top, which looks like a giant eyeball at first glance.
The ancient city of Jingjue uses the eye as its totem.
"We're here, we're here, we're finally here."
Professor Chen suddenly burst into tears, muttering incessantly and shouting "We're here".
Su Mu was a little worried about his current condition, afraid that he might go crazy by accident.
Considering Chen Jiuren’s age, he really looks like Fan Jin who passed the imperial examination.
Fortunately, Professor Hao Aiguo was not far away from him.
I walked over and hugged the teacher excitedly.
The two national-level archaeological talents cried with joy like children.
Everyone in the scientific expedition team was happy.
Fatty Wang and Hu Bayi had no time to look around. They both clenched their fists together. While Fatty was celebrating, he glanced at Shirley Yang from time to time.
Shirley Yang threw herself into Su Mu's arms immediately.
Because Su Mu opened his arms to her.
"We found it. We really found it."
"It's OK to get excited for a while. Next, we have to go over and take a look. After all, most of the area is buried under the yellow sand. With our current number and strength, it is very unrealistic to completely dig out the Jingjue Ancient City..."
Su Mu knows how to pour cold water on people.
His voice was not loud, but everyone could hear every word clearly.
The heat dropped suddenly.
"Let's go and find some water..."
Professor Chen Jiuren looked at Ye Shuxin on the camel behind him.
Her face was pale and her lips were a little dry, but she was obviously in much better spirits than yesterday.
Everyone began to officially enter the ruins of the ancient city of Jingjue.
The fat man deliberately walked a few steps slower, and when Shirley Yang passed by him, he quickly caught up with her.
"Ms. Yang, are you a man of your words? When you came here, you said you would give me and Lao Hu an extra 10,000 US dollars each."
"Don't worry, you won't lose a penny."
"Hehe, that's good, that's good."
Su Mu was the last one to step inside.
He glanced at the sky, then turned around and looked back the way he had come. The only crack in the Magnetic Mountain was still standing in the distance.
Su Mu can perceive things that others cannot see.
He looked up and his gaze fell back to a certain place in the ancient city of Jingjue.
It just looks like the direction the eye of the building is looking.
There is weirdness.
Quite weird.
After entering the ruins of the ancient city of Jingjue, Professor Chen and Professor Hao ran around like headless flies, panicking and without any clue as to what to do.
It's like a starving wild dog smelling meat, but finding a curled-up hedgehog and having no idea where to start.
When Hu Bayi took out the compass, the two professors suddenly felt more confident as if they had met their relatives.
"Xiao Hu, Xiao Hu, did you find anything?"
"Professor Chen, according to the hexagram and the city layout, the eye building should be a very important core area of the Jingjue Ancient City. Why don't we go there and take a look first?"
Everyone followed suit.
Except for Hu Bayi who had some guesses based on his Feng Shui divination skills, the others knew nothing and could only hope that Hu Bayi would succeed again.
After walking around for a quarter of an hour, the group finally arrived at the foot of the eye building.
It looks small, but it is actually quite large.
Even the steps exposed outside the yellow sand number about one or two hundred.
The end of the stairs is not the highest point for the eye, but just a little above the middle of the building.
As for how everyone can tell it is yellow sand...
It must have been Su Mu who reminded him, being extremely meticulous.
"Chu Jian, Satipeng, the two of you stay outside to take care of Ye Shuxin, and help old man Anliman feed the camels..."
Su Mu was at the entrance, preventing Chu Jian, Satipeng and Ye Shuxin from entering.
They were only allowed to wait in the shade at the cave entrance.
Anliman didn't think about anything at all and just stopped at the bottom of the stairs to take care of the camel.
I am breaking salt cakes now.
"Brother Su, as for water..."
"Use it boldly. It doesn't matter if it runs out. Since we have found the ancient city of Jingjue, there must be a source of water underground."
"Don't worry, Xiaosa. Let's go in and explore the way first. As soon as we find a water source, I will come out and call you."
The fat man had a gun in his hand and felt that he owned the world, and said proudly.
Su Mu actually wanted to stop Chen Jiuren and Hao Aiguo from entering.
These two old scholars really can't help at all if they go there. They are not good at anything and are the biggest trouble-maker.
Well, two people are competing for the first place.
The entrance to the cave is in the middle of the building, but you can walk into the cave and it continues downwards.
Ever since Su Mu entered the cave, he had a feeling of being spied on again.
He frowned slightly and looked around but found nothing.
There are many stone carvings of creatures along the way, ranging from humans to animals.
On the third-to-last small platform, I saw a strange, lifelike giant snake.
It happened to be an enlarged version of the two black snakes with wings on their heads that were on the road before.
The second-to-last position was empty.
“Why is it gone here?”
The fat man asked curiously.
No one could explain it, but Professor Chen Jiuren thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps this represents the imaginary space. It is said that the eyes of the Queen of Jingjue are connected to the imaginary space..."
Shirley Yang subconsciously glanced at Su Mu twice.
After all, based on the conversations among everyone a few days ago, it can be inferred that Su Mu's carrying ability is similar to the function of the eyes of the last queen of the Jingjue Ancient City.
It is highly likely that they are of the same frequency or closer to the same type.
Going further forward, we arrived at the end of the hall.
On the largest platform, a jade eyeball was placed in the center.
It is obviously a rare species of ice jade, but it seems to have been naturally formed in the shape of an eyeball.
Because there is not a trace of carving on it and it looks vivid.
Everyone gathered around.
You can see that there is a groove just above the eyeball jade.
The groove looks familiar.
"Fatty, take off the jade pendant so I can use it."
Su Mu stretched out his hand.
He wasn't worried that the fat man wouldn't give it to him.
Sure enough, the fat man pulled it down without hesitation and handed it to Su Mu.
Place into the groove.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
"No response, has it been too long? Do I need to turn it manually?"
The fat man lacked patience. After waiting for half a minute and seeing no movement, he couldn't help but speak.
click.
The jade eyes suddenly turned twice, and the platform below began to shake slightly as if some mechanism had been triggered.
"Shirley, get out the flashbang."
The flash grenades were found when I was looting the bag before. There were five of them in total, which just filled the circle of the belt.
Su Mu was handed over to Shirley Yang at that time. (End of this chapter)
