The love apartment begins with entering the police station

Chapter 95 Sanxingdui Mutated Creatures

Arriving at the excavation site, the hungry people finally had a hot meal.

After eating, Xiang Yu, Yifei, and Zhanbo stopped in front of the sacrificial pit numbered 7 near the canteen and looked at the excavation site in front of them. It was the first time for all three of them to come to an archaeological excavation site, and they were full of curiosity about everything around them.

Under the pit, two archaeologists were slowly clearing away the floating soil, revealing a grid-like artifact underneath that resembled a turtle's back. It can be seen that there are a large number of ivory and small but exquisite bronze and jade objects scattered around.

As the archaeologists carefully lifted it, one of the gems was revealed from the soil under the turtle's back.

Xiang Yu asked Zhan Bo and Yifei with some memories: "What do you think this thing was used for thousands of years ago?"

"Isn't this a barbecue grill from thousands of years ago?" Yifei thought about the uncertain shape.

"Sister, how is it possible? With a grill of this shape, the meat will not fall off the sides." Zhan Bo shook his head and retorted.

At this moment, behind the three of them, Professor Wang and Professor Li came over.

After hearing the conversation between Zhan Bo and Yifei, Professor Li took a step forward and said to the scene below: "Mr. Xiang Xiao, what do you think the artifact just unearthed from Sanxingdui Pit No. 7 is used for?"

Hearing this, Xiang Yu understood that this was a test for me, and said with a smile: "You're welcome, Professor Li, just call me Xiang Yu. What is a barbecue grill? It's a conjecture of modern thinking. Sanxingdui civilization has been an agricultural civilization since then. From a sacrificial perspective, agricultural tools are also a type of sacrificial offering. I think this thing may be a sieve, used to separate grains and rice straws. I just don’t know if the soil below can be detected thousands of years ago. Straw or grain components?”

Professor Wang turned sideways and told the students to remind the archaeologists below to keep uncontaminated soil samples.

"Then why are there two dragons cast on top?" Professor Wang asked Xiang Yu with a smile after giving instructions to the students.

"Should it be a sacrifice to "deify" the agricultural tools, or to show the nobility of the palace tools? The piece of jade inside may be used as a sacrificial object to pray for a good harvest of crops." Xiang Yu said in an uncertain tone.

Professor Wang nodded in agreement. After hearing this, several people around him no longer dared to look down upon the young man brought by Professor Wang.

After dinner, Professor Wang and Professor Li both went to participate in the excavation work, leaving two students behind to accompany and record.

Xiang Yu, Yifei and Zhan Bo wore protective suits and came to the temporary storage camp. The tents were filled with various newly unearthed items.

The bronze vessels are mixed with soil, dark in color, and intertwined with each other. It's not at all as shiny and neat as what you used to see behind the bright glass windows of the museum.

But the more scenes like this, the more mysterious they feel. The aura that has traveled through history makes people feel nervous.

In the next two days, Xiang Yu saw the newly unearthed Dali statue. The Dali statue was not standing on the base. It was wearing a flower crown and long clothes, standing barefoot. It was basically the same height as Xiang Yu, although there was still no soil. It's clean, but you can see the delicate patterns on the long coat.

There are also a series of cultural relics such as the sun wheel and the bronze sacred bird.

When they saw the bronze divine bird, everyone stared at Xiang Yu non-stop. It was exactly the same as the artifact described in the novel. How could it be such a coincidence.

Xiang Yu looked at everyone who was staring at him and said, "Don't look at it. Maybe the priests at that time, like me, imagined the scene of divine birds living on the divine tree, so they ordered people to make a bronze divine tree. This bronze divine tree It either represents fusang or building wood, but unfortunately the top of the tree is missing.”

"It takes nine days to live on the lower branch and one day to live on the upper branch. This is very consistent with the records in the Classic of Mountains and Seas." A student who was responsible for recording could not help but said.

"Yes, it's a pity that the top of the tree is missing, otherwise we can judge whether it is fusang or jianmu." Xiang Yu also sighed.

As the work progressed, Xiang Yu and others saw more and more sacrificial pits. It is hard to imagine that the ancients could create such a splendid civilization four thousand years ago.

On the afternoon of the third day, the work that Xiang Yu was responsible for had basically been completed. Professor Wang sent someone to find Xiang Yu to see the new findings.

Xiang Yu brought the curious Zhanbo and Yifei to the newly excavated tunnel site. It was a black rock passage with moss and soil scattered inside. On the outermost passage were two stone beasts on the left and right sides. The archaeologists The stone beast is being moved upwards through a hanging net.

Professor Wang said to Xiang Yu: "This is what we just discovered. It should be a burial pit. What do you think this is in front of you?"

But at this moment, Xiang Yu was stunned by the reminder in his mind.

"When players come to a special area, this week's wild monster challenge will be automatically triggered, and red-named wild monsters will be automatically released after ten minutes. Players are requested to complete the challenge in time. This challenge lasts four hours."

This is the first time Xiang Yu has encountered such a prompt from the system. Is it because there is something special in the tomb pit? Xiang Yu felt his scalp go numb when he saw the word "red wild monster".

Zhan Bo saw that Xiang Yu was in a daze and did not respond to Professor Wang. He shook the hem of Xiang Yu's clothes who was in a daze.

Xiang Yu came back to his senses and said excitedly to Professor Wang: "This should be a tomb pit, but generally tomb pits are guarded by agencies. Although thousands of years have passed, the toxic substances will not disappear. There are too many people here. unsafe!"

Professor Wang looked at Xiang Yu's excited look and said doubtfully: "It's okay, our excavation speed is very slow, everyone is wearing protective clothing, everything will be fine." Xiang Yu looked at the countdown in his mind and quickly pulled Professor Wang He went to the side and whispered: "My master said this, saying that it is very dangerous inside and people will die. You believe me, there is no need for me to lie."

"Did your master say there was any danger?" Professor Wang asked curiously.

"It's really dangerous. My master said it with a scared look at the time. He just told me that if you encounter such a stone path, especially one guarded by such a stone beast, you must not go in, otherwise you will definitely die." Xiang Yu We have to exaggerate the danger, otherwise when some monster really appears, these people here won't be able to escape in time.

Seeing Xiang Yu's nervous look, Professor Wang couldn't help but believe it. Years of archaeological experience also told him that he should not take it lightly.

Following Professor Wang's instructions, all the people except those who were transporting the stone beast dispersed. Xiang Yu called Yifei and asked him to take Zhanbo and stay away.

Xiang Yu saw that the stone beast's hanging net was moving too slowly, so he took the initiative to help, and finally drove everyone out of the pit before the countdown ended.

However, the countdown ended, and nothing happened except the system prompting "The tomb beast has been released." When Xiang Yu was scratching his head and wondering,
  Professor Wang was followed by a group of soldiers in military uniforms. Xiang Yu looked and realized that they should be the soldiers responsible for protecting the excavation site.

"Okay, Xiang Yu, can you say it now?" Professor Wang said to Xiang Yu who was squatting beside the pothole.

"What did I say?" Xiang Yu was a little confused.

Professor Wang smiled proudly and said: "You must not know that this is not the first time I have participated in the excavation of the ancient Sanxingdui civilization. In 97, I also participated in the excavation of the Sanxingdui tombs. However, no royal tombs were found at that time, and there were Some things led to the termination of the excavation, and I was an eyewitness at that time. By the way, this is Captain Wang, the person in charge of protecting the safety of this archaeological work. He has the right to know the situation."

"If I'm not wrong, your master is not an ordinary person. Tell me what else your master told you." Professor Wang added.

"My master only said that there may be a special kind of creature in this environment. It may not be the kind we usually see. According to current theory, it should be called a mutant species." Although Xiang Yu didn't know what Professor Wang had experienced when he was young. , but it did not prevent him from knowing that Professor Wang had misunderstood.

"No wonder" Professor Wang suddenly realized what he was thinking.

After a while, Professor Wang whispered to Captain Wang beside him.

I saw two groups of soldiers coming out with excavation tools, and another group wearing protective clothing and holding long poles and nooses standing guard at the edge. The remaining groups were scattered around the pit.

"Professor Wang, you are not afraid that I am talking nonsense." Xiang Yu asked Professor Wang doubtfully.

"You are still young, there are many things that you have not experienced yet, there are many things that cannot be taken at face value, and there are many things that are unknown." Professor Wang sighed.

Xiang Yu nodded helplessly, thinking: I know there are aliens in S city, and there will be Skynet in the future. Is it possible that it can be even more unknown than this?

Yifei also walked over wearing protective clothing. Captain Wang looked at him and said nothing.

Yifei pulled Xiang Yu and asked in a low voice: "What's the situation now?"

Without waiting for Xiang Yu to answer, the soldiers on the scene withdrew, and a toad-like creature emerged from the tunnel. It was covered in lumps, with a pair of bulging eyes and four short legs. It could jump up to several meters. It is as tall as an adult wild boar.

Xiang Yu immediately used the Qi Watching Technique. The system prompts "If it exceeds level 5, information cannot be obtained." Xiang Yu suddenly felt his scalp numb. It was 17 levels higher than his own level, which meant that this big toad was at least a level monster.

Seeing the knots on the giant toad begin to shrink, Xiang Yu's pupils contracted, adrenaline was secreted rapidly, and his heart almost exploded. He had a premonition that disaster was coming, and shouted loudly: "Danger! Everyone get down!"

Unfortunately, the soldiers at the scene heard the warning a little late. The world seemed to be quiet for a moment, leaving only the roar of the giant clam. Countless gray-white liquid shot out from the knot and hit the protective suit, making a sizzling corrosive sound.

Xiang Yu quickly shouted: "It may be poisonous. Everyone, stay away and change your protective clothing quickly."

Captain Wang here seemed to have expected it. He waved a group of people on the side to hold shields to block the front, and asked the two groups of players to retreat. Many people's skin had been corroded with small holes. They still had protective clothing. Blocked it.

"Professor Wang, have you seen this kind of creature?" Xiang Yu couldn't get the information, so he had to ask Professor Wang for advice.

"No, this is the first time I have seen a toad? This creature is probably an extinct ancient creature. It should have been in a dormant state. My nephew, you must catch it alive. It is of great research value." Wang The professor's eyes were actually shining, and he grabbed Captain Wang beside him and said.

Xiang Yu was so anxious that he was a level 17 monster with a red name. You are here to teach me about paleontology. No, Captain Wang is actually your eldest nephew. No wonder he was called directly by you.

Captain Wang on the side calmly walked up to the anxious three people and said: "Uncle, don't be nervous. I have seen similar creatures. We just need to wait for time. If we don't want to catch them alive, it's just a few The gun thing.”

"A creature that has lived underground for too long may have degenerated. Its eyes may be invisible, or its vision may be blurry. It should mainly rely on hearing and smell. Maybe it is afraid of fire. You can try it." Xiang Yu Hearing this, he quickly came up with an idea.
