Chapter 668 Coffin Cave
【Wait...why are Brother Qin An and the others out too? I thought they'd stay in the bath a little longer!】
[Seriously... I can understand if Jiang Liuli and the others don't want us to see it! But why won't Qin An let us see it either? He's a streamer! What kind of streamer leaves the live stream screen for extended periods?]
That's right!
[After this, it'll probably just be eating, washing up, and sleeping, right? There doesn't seem to be anything interesting to see... I'm going to sleep now.]
[+1 I've been staring at my phone screen all day! It's already 10:30 PM! I'm going to sleep now! Goodnight everyone]
[Hehehe... You guys go to sleep! I have a feeling something bad is going to happen tonight! I need to watch the live stream to find out as soon as possible.]
I'm a night owl too.
..........................................
After Qin An and his group met up with Jiang Liuli and the others, they did not plan to go any further inside. After all, they had just taken a bath, and if they sweated again, the bath would be pointless.
However, setting up camp there is a problem!
There are many flesh-eating black earthworms in this cave. They are currently hiding in the cracks in the soil. Once the archaeological team lays out their sleeping bags to sleep, they will definitely crawl out of the soil and suck everyone's blood!
"Let's make do by the hot spring for the night! You guys pack your sleeping bags here, and Hu Jizhou and I will walk over there and see if there's a better place to sleep."
The area next to the hot spring was too damp.
Therefore, Qin An decided to go further inside and take a look at the surrounding environment.
Hu Jizhou put down his backpack, took only his Vajra Umbrella, and followed behind Qin An. The two walked towards the depths of the hot spring pool by the light from the military flashlights overhead.
The rocks here are jagged and haphazardly carved... Although they look very chaotic, a closer look reveals that there is a path in the center of the area surrounded by these rocks.
Qin An and Hu Jizhou exchanged a glance.
They each carried their own weapons and went inside one after the other.
We passed the narrow path.
Ahead was a circular stone cave.
The cave is not deep.
The two walked about thirty meters into the exit, where they saw a large, ancient-looking round hole.
Moreover, there was a coffin placed every three to five steps!
These coffins were made of ordinary wood and did not have the ability to remain intact for thousands of years. Hu Jizhou stretched out his Vajra Umbrella to stab the coffins.
It could even pierce right through a coffin!
This caused the already unstable coffin to collapse and fall to the ground, with the dust-covered bones rolling out of it.
But it hasn't rolled very far yet.
The skeleton fell apart again.
This entire round hole was filled with coffins like these! They were so densely packed together, they looked just like an anthill!
"No wonder we didn't see a single skeleton in that deserted village... So everyone was buried in these coffins after they died?" Hu Jizhou stared at the densely packed coffins with a look of utter astonishment.
Even Qin An was somewhat shocked!
The coffin cave was much larger than he had imagined!
There were at least three or four thousand coffins, if not tens of thousands.
"Was this man-made or created by divine magic? So many coffins... and such huge coffin holes! If they were dug out by manpower alone, even if the Changbai Mountains wouldn't collapse, the time cost alone wouldn't be enough, would it?"
Qin An began to question the origin of the coffin hole.
With such a massive coffin-shaped cave, and not even a few supporting beams in the center, it's hard to believe that this thing won't collapse!
Hu Jizhou also felt that Qin An's words made sense.
This thing seems to defy physics a bit, doesn't it?
"Brother Qin An... should we move the sleeping bags here?" Hu Jizhou felt that the environment in this coffin cave was very dry.
Hear this.
Qin An shook his head and said, "There's no need... There's too much dust here. If we sleep here for one night, our throats will definitely be very dry in the morning. Let's just make do with the hot spring for one night! And it will be warmer to sleep at night."
After saying this.
Qin An then led Hu Jizhou away from the coffin cave.
Based on current observations, these coffins are filled with nothing but bare bones, so there is really no risk of them coming back to life. Moreover, even if they did come back to life, a group of skeletons would probably be no match for Shao Wei and Zhang Yunfeng!
After all, this thing will fall apart if you touch it.
Therefore, the two of them had no intention of lingering there any longer.
Back to the outside hot spring area.
The rest of the archaeological team had already taken out their sleeping bags and laid them out. They were somewhat surprised to see Qin An and Hu Jizhou return so quickly.
"Brother Qin'an, is there any danger ahead?"
Xie Wenjing stared wide-eyed at Qin An and Hu Jizhou.
Hear the words.
Qin An nodded and said, "There's only a tiny bit strange, but there's not a shred of danger."
No one was in a hurry to ask where the strange spot was, since they could see it tomorrow anyway. After learning that there was no danger ahead, they happily crawled into their sleeping bags.
I took a shower, and there was no danger ahead.
Wouldn't it be wonderful to get a good night's sleep?
Therefore, I couldn't sleep all night.
........................................
This was arguably the most peaceful night the archaeological team had experienced since they went down into the tomb with Qin An. Not only did nothing happen that night, but because they had taken a bath before going to bed, everyone slept exceptionally well.
It's like closing your eyes and it's dark; when you open them again, it's already eight o'clock the next morning.
"Yawn—that feels so good! I didn't wake up at all in the middle of the night! It's great to sleep until dawn!" Yang Lele stretched.
The others also felt they had slept very well last night.
They couldn't help but nod.
"Huh? Where's Brother Qin An?" At this moment, Xie Wenjing, who was sleeping on Qin An's left, noticed that Qin An's sleeping bag was empty.
however.
The rest of the archaeological team, however, remained completely calm.
"Brother Qin An must have gone ahead to scout the way for us. Don't be nervous. Let's wash up and have breakfast first. Maybe Brother Qin An will come back while we're eating," Gu Yang said calmly while folding his sleeping bag.
Xie Wenjing and Wang Yanyan noticed that everyone around them looked calm and composed, and they couldn't help but wonder if they had already gotten used to it.
But then he thought that he couldn't really help Qin An in any way.
The two of them lay down again.
If you can't help Brother Qin An, at least don't hold him back, right? I imagine the others had the same mindset as them before! Instead of worrying about what Brother Qin An will do next, they should think about how to avoid becoming a burden.
