Chapter 28: Unexpected Discovery, Suanni Hide
Chapter 28: Unexpected Discovery, Suanni Hide
"This zongzi has a very strong defense."
Jiang Hua had a headache. Although he was already a second-grade warrior, in terms of lethality alone, he was really no better than a bullet.
However, even bullets can't do anything to it.
His fists are probably even more useless.
"Forget it, let's make it quick and decisive!"
Jiang Hua's expression turned stern, and he took out his Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword from behind him.
Clang!
The long sword was unsheathed, and a dragon roar sounded out of nowhere.
As a second-grade warrior, Jiang Hua's internal Qi became more abundant, able to provide the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword with more powerful power.
boom!
After the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword absorbed enough true energy, Jiang Hua rushed forward and slashed at the big zongzi's head with the sword.
puff!
There was not a loud sound, only the sound of the sword entering the flesh, and the white-haired giant's running footsteps came to an abrupt halt.
The head and body are separated.
A head covered with white hair fell to the ground, deader than dead.
"Your sword is so powerful!"
Shirley Yang came over and couldn't help but admire.
She had witnessed the power of this sword several times before, but even so, she was still amazed when she saw the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword easily chop off the head of the white-haired giant dumpling!
"Haha, of course, this is one of the ten famous swords in ancient times!"
Shirley Yang retracted her gaze and said, "Let's go check on Professor Jiang and the others."
"Ah."
Jiang Hua took back the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword and walked to the ear chamber with Shirley Yang.
"Teacher, Lao Hu, Fatty, are you in there?" Jiang Hua called out from outside the door.
It was quiet inside and there seemed to be no one there.
Jiang Hua's face gradually darkened.
Could something have happened to the teachers?
He was feeling anxious and wanted to force open the bronze door.
Suddenly, a voice with hesitation and a hint of disbelief came from the bronze door.
“You…you are Brother Jiang?”
"Yes, I'm Jiang Hua. I've dealt with that big white-haired zongzi. How are you guys, Lao Hu?"
Click!
The bronze door opened from the inside, revealing the scene inside.
The golden light was so dazzling that it almost blinded Jiang Hua's eyes.
Inside were all kinds of gold, silver, jewelry, agate and jade, piled on boxes. These were all burial objects.
Professor Jiang was lying on the ground with dry lips, messy hair, and his body was still shaking. It was obvious that his condition was not very good.
Ye Yixin was taking care of Professor Jiang on the side.
"I'll go see Professor Jiang and the others first." Shirley said to Jiang Hua.
Hu Bayi and Fatty stood at the door to greet them.
Both of them looked bad, their clothes were a little torn, and their lips were dry, obviously they hadn't had water for a long time.
"Brother Jiang, that's great, you didn't die!"
The fat man was very excited and hugged him directly.
Hu Bayi pulled him away and asked with some disbelief on his face: "Brother Jiang, is that big white-haired zongzi really dead?"
They all saw the horror of the big white-haired dumpling and knew how terrible it was!
It is invulnerable to swords and guns, and even bullets have no effect on it. Otherwise, Hu Bayi and his men would not have fallen to the point of hiding here.
"Don't worry, that big white-haired zongzi is dead as hell. If you don't believe me, just go out and take a look."
The fat man was a little unconvinced and really ran out.
He ran back after a moment with a look of shock on his face.
"Old Hu, that big Zongzi is really dead!"
"Brother Jiang, you are so awesome, how did you do this?"
Jiang Hua did not answer the question, but turned to look at Professor Jiang with a hint of worry in his eyes.
"What happened to the teacher?"
"Oh, this is all my fault!"
Hu Bayi sighed and narrated the whole story.
It turned out that he used Tianxing Feng Shui to discover the ancient tomb of the prince of Gumo Kingdom, and then he took Professor Jiang and others down into the well.
A group of people soon discovered the tomb chamber above. Professor Jiang originally did not intend to open the coffin because they did not have the conditions to do so.
If the coffin is opened rashly, it is very likely to cause damage to the cultural relics, so Professor Jiang plans to report to his superiors after returning and use professional tools to open the coffin so as not to damage the cultural relics.
However, what he didn't expect was that Hao Aiguo found a mechanism around the coffin. He accidentally pressed it and the coffin was immediately opened.
Inside was a dried corpse, wearing funeral clothes, and everything seemed fine.
Hao Aiguo thought that since the coffin had been opened, he might as well study it to see if there would be any new discoveries.
Unexpectedly, after the coffin was opened, a layer of white hair quickly grew on the surface of the mummy, and before Hao Aiguo could react, the hair directly stabbed into his chest with its claws.
This is the cause of death of Professor Hao Aiguo!
At this point, Hu Bayi's face showed a hint of sadness.
"It was me who killed Professor Hao. If I hadn't discovered this ancient tomb, Professor Hao wouldn't have died!"
"Old Hu, don't blame yourself too much. Professor Hao's death has nothing to do with you."
Jiang Hua said a few words of comfort and continued to listen to what happened next.
"After we found the corpse, Fatty and I immediately raised our guns and attacked. But the white-haired corpse was invulnerable to weapons and our bullets had no effect at all."
"We had no choice but to use the black donkey's hoof and sticky rice to fight it. However, the black donkey's hoof was not very effective against the white-haired zongzi. Fatty and I almost died at the hands of this beast."
"At the critical moment, I took a look around and found that the tomb here had been modified by someone. The auspicious tomb was turned into an inauspicious one, so this zombie was born."
"Professor Jiang was so angry about Professor Hao's death that he passed out."
"It was definitely too late to return to the ground at that time. I had no choice but to figure out the location of the auspicious cave and carried Professor Jiang on my back all the way here."
"Unexpectedly, the big white-haired zongzi also followed us. We could only hide in this ear chamber and dared not go out."
"Later, you came over..."
After listening to Hu Bayi's story, Jiang Hua sighed. Who could have thought that the Gumo Kingdom would actually change the orientation of the tomb, leading to the birth of a white-haired zombie here.
This is an extremely terrifying existence.
It is invulnerable to swords and guns. Ordinary people are no match for it and may even be completely wiped out.
Jiang Hua took out his water bottle and said, "Have a drink of water first. I'll go see the teacher."
"Well, let's go up and ask Xiao Chu to come down and help."
Came to Professor Jiang.
"Shirley, what happened to the teacher?"
"The situation is not good. Professor Jiang is in his sixties or seventies after all. He was already weak, and after experiencing the death of Professor Hao, he passed out due to great grief, and now he has a fever."
Shirley Yang said helplessly.
Jiang Hua's heart sank. Having a fever in the desert was not a good thing.
The medicines they brought were very limited.
These are all daily emergency medicines.
They can’t understand anything more complicated.
So now we are in trouble, what should Professor Jiang do?
"Xiao Ye, Jiang Hua and I are the only ones here. You've been tired all day, so go upstairs and have a rest first." Shirley Yang turned around and said to Ye Yixin.
Ye Yixin hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.
She was indeed tired.
After all, she had been escaping for a whole day and still had to face the pressure of death from the big zongzi. It was not easy for her to hold on until now.
"Brother Jiang, Sister Yang, I'll go upstairs and rest first."
After Ye Yixin left.
"Jiang Hua, do you have any medicine to treat fever in your storage space?" Shirley asked.
"Yes, there is." Jiang Hua hesitated for a moment, "But I don't know if it will work."
"There's nothing we can do now. We can only try our best. Let's give Professor Jiang some antipyretic medicine first." Shirley Yang said decisively.
"Well, okay."
Jiang Hua took out the antipyretic medicine and fed it to Professor Jiang.
Soon after eating, Professor Jiang's condition improved a little and his fever subsided a lot.
This made Jiang Hua and Shirley Yang feel a little relieved. At least Professor Jiang's life was not in danger.
After the matter was resolved, Jiang Hua began to look around the ear chamber, which contained a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry. Unfortunately, these gold, silver and jewelry were not antiques and could not absorb any precious aura.
However, Jiang Hua also found a wooden box in this ear chamber. The wooden box had a simple shape and a unique charm.
This wooden box alone is made of the finest agarwood and exudes a special fragrance that makes people feel relaxed and happy!
Jiang Hua opened the wooden box with a hint of curiosity. Inside was a piece of animal skin with small seal characters engraved on it!
Seeing these small seal characters, Jiang Hua felt a headache.
Although he was a student majoring in archaeology and had a deep understanding of ancient characters, it was impossible for him to read the characters from the pre-Qin period fluently.
Unless he is given a lot of time, he will not be able to decipher the text on the animal skin.
Suddenly, Jiang Hua's heart moved.
Open Golden Eye!
A hint of gold appeared in Jiang Hua's eyes.
"Suanni hide: During the Qin Dynasty, the First Emperor sent Xu Fudong to search for the immortal mountain in an attempt to achieve immortality! Xu Fudong returned from his search for the elixir of life, but the First Emperor passed away. Xu Fu did not dare to return to the court, so he hid the treasure he had obtained and carved it on the Suanni hide, dividing it into seven pieces!"
"Ding! Dragon energy detected. Do you want to absorb it?"
