Chapter 428: The inner elixir is lost?
"Oh my god...this is a mountain of gold and silver! This is the main tomb of the Queen of Subi Kingdom! What was that cave just now?" Hawkeye was almost drooling when he saw the gold, silver, jewelry and jade gems in the tomb!
without any exaggeration!
Any of the treasures here, if sold outside... can ensure that an ordinary person will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life!
Compared with others, he cares more about the gold, silver and jewelry in the tomb.
Liu Guoqing and Xu Xiuying seemed a little obsessed with looking at the six dragon hanging coffins in the center of the tomb!
This is so artistic!
Six lifelike stone dragons were coiled on the edge of the cave... From their mouths extended an iron chain as thick as a baby's arm, which was tied to a bronze coffin, which was then suspended above the cave!
Even if it is carved from stone!
But this is also a dragon!
The ancient emperor who compared himself to a real dragon actually fell to the point of being a servant pulling the coffin for the queen of Subi. What a grand ceremony!
however.
When the archaeological team walked cautiously to the edge of the cave.
However, they discovered that the bronze coffin pulled by six stone dragons was half open...and the queen of Subi was lying inside, wearing a golden mask and brocade clothes.
She crossed her hands and placed them on her lower abdomen.
"This figure... including the Sleeping Beauty aura she exudes, the face beneath the mask must be a cold and beautiful one!"
This is what the archaeological team thought.
however.
Zhang Sitian glanced around the tomb and pointed out something that seemed amiss: "Brother Qin'an... didn't I remember we were here looking for the man with the ox-headed bronze mask? How come we're already in the main tomb? And the gravekeeper hasn't shown up yet?"
As soon as these words came out!
Everyone in the archaeological team was stunned!
Yes... In ancient tombs in the past, the grave keepers would stay in the main tomb chamber and wait for the archaeological team to arrive before jumping out to intercept them!
How come I didn’t see any gravekeeper at the Subi State Tomb?
Could it be that he went out to find food?
Then they will have to take out the inner elixir in the dantian of the Queen of Subi Kingdom without any hesitation!
"Don't act rashly! Stay alert!" Qin An instructed the archaeological team while searching for the entrance and exit in the tomb, searching the entire tomb.
The only entrances and exits were the place where they came in from the Rakshasa Heaven Tomb and the cave under the Six Dragon Hanging Coffins.
Could it be that the gravekeeper is really not here?
Is there such a good thing?
Qin An felt that there was no time to lose and he should quickly dig out the inner elixir from the body of the Queen of Subi Kingdom to avoid any further complications!
"Old Hu! Gu Yang Eagle Eye! Keep watch for me! Call me if there's any sign of trouble! I'll dig out the inner elixir from the Queen of Subi first."
"it is good!"
The three of them nodded in agreement.
Then Qin An turned over and jumped from the ground onto the hanging coffin.
"Jiang Liuli, throw the fishbone knife to me."
"it is good!"
Jiang Liuli gently threw the fishbone knife to Qin An, who caught it and slowly moved the lid of the bronze coffin. Seeing this, the archaeological team spontaneously surrounded the location of the six dragon hanging coffins.
After opening the lid of the bronze coffin.
Qin An supported his feet on the walls on both sides of the coffin!
He bent down and gently uncovered the brocade clothes of the Queen of Subi Kingdom with his hands... But as soon as his left hand touched the outer layer of silk, Qin An realized something was wrong!
There seemed to be a smell of blood in the air.
Moreover, the brocade clothes of the Queen of Subi Kingdom seemed to have been tampered with!
Qin An secretly thought that this was not good!
He quickly quickened his pace to uncover the Queen of Subi's clothes. When her underwear was also uncovered, the first thing that was revealed was her fair and smooth belly.
But when Qin An looked three inches below his lower abdomen, he was completely dumbfounded!
The Dantian was cut open...and the inner elixir inside disappeared!
Oh shit!
After going through so many traps and ferocious beasts, and losing several brothers in this tomb, in the end, I didn't even see a hair of the inner elixir!
Now Qin An finally understood why he hadn't seen any grave keepers in the main tomb! It turned out they had stolen the Queen of Subi's inner elixir!
Seeing that Qin An didn't make a sound for a long time.
The members of the archaeological team who were on guard around turned around.
They saw a wound on the pubic area of the Queen of Subi.
Hawkeye reached out his hand and prepared to pull Qin An up:
"Brother Qin An... now that you've dug out the Queen of Subi's inner elixir, why don't you just stand there? Come up and show us the elixir."
however.
Qin An said calmly, "I didn't dig out the inner elixir from the Queen of Subi... The inner elixir was dug away by the gravekeeper of the Subi Tomb! This also explains why we didn't encounter the gravekeeper."
"What! The inner elixir has already been dug up by the gravekeeper?!"
Everyone in the archaeological team was shocked!
Doesn't this mean that they made a wasted trip?
"This, this, this...this is impossible, right? Brother Qin An, you didn't lie to us, did you?" Xu Xiuying was so anxious that she was incoherent. "If that's the case, then wouldn't this mission be a major failure? Not only did we fail to recover the inner elixir of the King of Foyinku Kingdom, but we also haven't found the inner elixir of the Queen of Subi Kingdom!"
Hu Jizhou silently added in his mind, "And I haven't seen the Zhuchen Pearl yet."
Seeing that his wife was actually suspicious of Brother Qin An... Liu Guoqing quickly stopped her and said, "What are you talking about? Would Brother Qin An lie to us? If the gravekeeper grew legs and ran away, what can we do?"
"But if we find the inner elixir of the king of Foyinku Kingdom and the queen of Subi Kingdom this time! Our Western Region Archaeology Academy..."
Xu Xiuying trembled her lips and wanted to say something.
But Liu Guoqing stared at her with his eyes wide open and didn't allow her to say anything further!
Everyone in the archaeological team also understood a little!
No wonder Xu Xiuying reacted so strongly...it turns out it concerns their academician qualifications!
Qin An asked Gu Yang to come closer.
These special forces have seen more wounds!
He wanted Gu Yang to determine when the wound on the Queen of Subi Kingdom's dantian was inflicted. In other words, how long ago was it dissected?
Gu Yang squatted down and looked carefully for dozens of seconds.
Then he said uncertainly, "Judging from the extent of the wound, it should have taken between 12 and 24 hours! In any case, it can't have been more than a day!"
Qin An: "Are you sure?"
"I can't say it's too accurate... After all, I'm not a forensic doctor! But I'm sure of the 12-24 hour range!" Gu Yang said with a firm look.
"it is good!"
Qin An nodded and said, "Then let's not go back the same way! The gravekeeper must have escaped through the hole under this bronze coffin! Let's go after him!"

PS: Please give me a small gift!
The Tomb of the Subi Kingdom is almost finished. I'll be out writing some daily stories then! I'd like to ask this reader, do you want to see more daily stories? Or should I just write a little bit and then go tomb raiding?
