Chapter 399 Tomb Bug!
"No..." Qin An frowned slightly and said, "Why are there teeth marks on this piece of bone? It's like a tiny insect bite!"
Hear this.
The archaeological team members who were originally sitting on the humus soil immediately jumped up and patted their buttocks with their hands. In addition to brushing off the dust, they were also afraid that insects would crawl onto their clothes.
Gu Yang said in disbelief:
"Brother Qin An...are you telling the truth?!"
Qin An did not respond but pulled out the black gold ancient knife and gently dug on the humus soil. After digging about twenty centimeters down, Qin An found a relatively complete human skull.
"Brother Qin An! Here! Sterile gloves!" Xu Xiuying quickly took out a pair of sterile gloves from her backpack and handed them to Qin An.
If it were just ordinary stuff, it would be fine!
But this is a human skull... What if there are some bacteria or toxins on it and Qin An is infected? Even if he is not infected, it is still necessary to keep his hands clean!
"Thank you!"
After putting on the sterile gloves handed to him by Xu Xiuying.
Qin An held the human skull in his hands and looked at it carefully in front of his eyes!
really!
Qin An was not mistaken. Not only did the piece of human bone fragment have tiny bite marks, but there were also similar bite marks on this relatively well-preserved human skull.
All of a sudden!
A bold idea appeared in Qin An's mind!
Perhaps what they entered was not a burial pit... but a real trap. However, this trap was not filled with arrows or sulfuric acid, but with some invisible and intangible insects that eat human flesh!
"Swish—"
There was a strange noise coming from the chain flaps above my head, and a few wisps of yellow sand seeped in from the gaps in the chain flaps.
"What happened?" Zhang Sitian asked with some fear.
She doesn't want to be buried alive in the yellow sand!
Seeing that the yellow sand in the tomb above his head seemed to be about to crush the chain of flaps, Qin An knew that he had little time left and he had to break the deadlock as soon as possible.
But now there is nothing in this tomb except humus!
Even Qin An was powerless!
He could only warn, "This isn't a burial pit! Be careful! Don't talk loudly or move around... There might be flesh-eating bugs under this humus!"
"Ok!"
Hear this.
The archaeological team members even breathed more lightly.
I was afraid of disturbing the insects in the humus soil under my feet.
Qin An held the relatively well-preserved human skull in his left hand and walked gently on the humus soil, while his right hand pressed lightly on the surrounding stone walls, trying to see if there was any mechanism for survival.
But what a pity!
Even if Qin An refused to accept his fate and walked away twice!
Still no mechanism found!
That does not work!
That's not OK!
Qin An became completely famous!
"Can everyone use the Luoyang shovel?" Qin An said coldly.
The three Taoist monks who moved mountains, Liu Guoqing and his wife, Jiang Liuli, Zhang Sitian, and Yang Lele all raised their hands!
"Alright!" Qin An said, "Don't worry about whether there are flesh-eating bugs under this humus! Now, get out your Luoyang shovels and dig a hole!"
Seeing Qin An's serious face.
The others did not dare to neglect it.
They took out Luoyang shovels from their backpacks and assembled them. After assembly, they continued to dig holes diagonally downwards.
Qin An held the blade of the black gold ancient sword in his hand!
Once Qin An finds insects crawling out from under the humus soil, he will cut his palm without hesitation and sprinkle the Golden Crow blood on them!
The Golden Crow bloodline is the most yang thing!
Once you get these shady bugs on you, you'll die instantly!
“Crack, crack, crack—”
Liu Guoqing extended the Luoyang shovel in his hand downward.
This humus soil is extremely soft!
Liu Guoqing pushed the bottom of the Luoyang shovel all the way to the bottom of the humus soil before retracting it.
The soil from the lower layer was brought out...but the color of the soil became increasingly strange! First, it changed from black to brown, then from brown to light red, and finally, it turned directly into blood red!
And the blood-red humus soil that was brought up was still dripping with blood!
“Tick-tick-tick-tick-”
When the archaeological team saw this scene, they all held their breath and dared not speak.
Gu Yang said with a stiff face, "Brother Qin An... I remember when you were leading us to excavate the tomb of King Qi, you said that this soil is bloody because there is a blood corpse tomb underneath! Is there also a blood corpse tomb under this pile of humus soil now?"
Qin An put away the black gold ancient knife with a thoughtful look on his face.
The so-called blood corpse tomb is nothing more than a tomb with a cinnabar roof.
This doesn't leave much room for thought... What Qin An was really thinking about was why the tomb with the cinnabar roof was below the "sacrifice pit"?
This is not consistent with tombology.
Just thinking about it.
Liu Guoqing's voice suddenly rang out: "Tombworms! The worms that eat human flesh in these burial pits are actually tombworms! No wonder there are tiny bite marks on those bones! We're really screwed now! These guys are really willing to risk their lives for a bite!"
I saw Professor Liu Guoqing’s face full of fear.
As a result, all the archaeological team members in the tomb were naturally afraid of tomb worms.
Gu Yang, who was standing next to Liu Guoqing, saw this.
He raised his foot and stepped on the exposed tomb worm. Because the tomb worm was lying on the Luoyang shovel, Gu Yang easily crushed it!
Not only were the internal organs squeezed out, but the juice also splashed out.
"don't want......."
Liu Guoqing raised his hand to stop it but it was too late!
See this.
Gu Yang's heart skipped a beat and he suddenly realized that he seemed to have made a big mistake!
"Oh no!" Liu Guoqing slapped his knee and said with a bitter face, "These tomb beetles are gregarious! They only feed on flesh and blood. They've already eaten all the human flesh in this burial pit! That's why they usually just gnaw on bones!"
"Now that their own kind has died, the smell of flesh will surely attract them out of the ground! When they see us, won't they just eat us?"
Hear the words.
Gu Yang also realized that he had caused a big disaster!
Li Mengzhe said, "There are so many of us! Why don't we just crush as many Tomb Bugs as they come? If all else fails, let Brother Qin An burn them!"
Seeing that everyone has not realized the seriousness of the problem!
Liu Guoqing simply stopped arguing.
He looked at Brother Qin An and wanted to ask him what to do. He hoped that Brother Qin An could come up with an idea!
But unfortunately, Qin An also knew the famous tomb worms!
He is also brainstorming for solutions now.
however.
time does not wait!
Before Qin An could come up with an idea, the soil under the feet of the archaeological team began to move, as if a creature was tickling the soles of their feet.
Tomb beetles popped up like bamboo shoots after the rain!
There are a huge number of them!
Looking around... the humus surface of the entire tomb was shaking slightly. At first glance, it turned out that there were dense tomb beetles crawling around.
