Chapter 581 Rain Master's Screen
【Huh? x9999999】
[Newton must be turning in his grave! Brother Qin An... you still say you didn't cheat?!]
[My God! He's practically a superman! I thought Lao Hu was going to fall off the cliff with the Rainbow Bridge, but Qin An managed to save him!]
[Damn... with a big shot like Brother Qin An around, as long as the archaeological team doesn't do anything reckless, it's practically impossible for them to die!]
[But I have a question: why did this rainbow bridge collapse? Could it be that the self-destruct mechanism started activated the moment Brother Qin An stepped onto the rainbow bridge?]
[I think it's very likely! If this were just a group of ordinary tomb raiders, they'd probably be smashed to pieces by now!]
......................
On the raised edge of the open space.
Qin An first used his right hand to throw Hu Jizhou up, then used his left hand to pull himself up as well, which startled the rest of the archaeological team who were about to help.
"Whoohoo-"
Hu Jizhou gasped for breath, having survived the ordeal.
Meng Yu gently held his hand, then took out a bottle of mineral water from her backpack and fed Hu Jizhou a little.
Qin An then patted the dust off his hands.
Not even the hem of his clothes was dirty!
"Brother Qin An..." Zhang Sitian was about to ask if he was injured anywhere, but Qin An waved his hand, indicating that they should leave quickly.
Somehow.
Qin An had a premonition...
There's something dirty in the thick black fog below that cliff!
Moreover, the platform they are standing on is not very stable, and it feels like it could collapse at any moment.
The rest of the archaeological team didn't have time to ask why.
He hurriedly followed the cave behind the open space. Just then, a long howl suddenly came from the thick black fog below the cliff, and Qin An stopped in his tracks.
The members of the archaeological team behind him looked at him with puzzled expressions.
See this situation.
Qin An asked, "Did you hear anything?"
"A sound?" Jiang Liuli, who was walking behind him, asked with a puzzled look, "No! A-Qin, did you hear any sound just now?"
Hear the words.
Qin Anqiang suppressed his confusion and shook his head, saying, "No."
Subsequently.
He then turned around and led the archaeological team deeper into the cave.
This cave was completely different from the one the archaeological team had passed through before. This cave was very spacious, about 4.5 meters wide, and about 5 or 6 meters high. However, the archaeological team members were still proceeding cautiously.
There is no other reason.
The ceiling of this cave is covered with stalactites!
Moreover, the stalactites were dripping water, which annoyed the archaeological team. The weather was already cold, and although the amount of water dripping from the stalactites was not much, the water was still dripping down.
However, due to the density.
It will still get everyone's clothes wet!
"This place is already quite far from Changbai Mountain's Tianchi Lake, so why is water still seeping down? Could it be that the end of this cave is a karst cave?" Xie Wenjing asked, somewhat puzzled.
“There shouldn’t be any more caves…” Wang Yanyan had just begun to reply.
At this time.
Qin An, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped.
The archaeological team looked ahead and saw that what lay ahead was not a cave at all, but clearly a waterlogged tomb!
The stone coffin in the very center of the tomb was half-submerged in water, which was at least as deep as an adult man's knees.
See this scene.
Everyone in the archaeological team was dumbfounded!
"How could the tomb chamber in the cliff be so flooded? Logically speaking, even if the water seeped down from Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain, it should either have directly submerged the tomb chamber or flowed down the mountain. How could the water have accumulated to knee height?" Zhang Yunfeng adjusted his glasses and asked.
Wang Ping was reluctant to wade through the water.
So he said, "What should we do? Should we go any further? The water is so deep, it would be really uncomfortable if our shoes and socks got wet."
Qin An was also very curious about where all this water came from.
And even if you wade through the water to enter this tomb chamber.
Where is the Gate of Life?
Could it have already been flooded?
at this time.
Yang Lele suddenly spoke up: "Do you think that stone coffin might contain Yu Shi Pingyi? Didn't Professor Zhang mention the ancient myth of the bet between Feng Bo and Yu Shi? We encountered Feng Bo before, and then we encountered the Rainbow Bridge. Maybe that stone coffin contains Yu Shi Pingyi!"
Hear this.
The archaeological team all agreed that this made a lot of sense!
Considering the cave and the water in the tomb... no one would believe that the corpse in the stone coffin wasn't Yu Shi Ping Yi.
Qin An nodded and said, "That's possible. You all wait here, I'll go open the coffin and take a look."
Done.
Qin An jumped directly into the tomb chamber.
They didn't even take off their shoes and socks, nor did they roll up their trouser legs.
After all, he has the precious blood of a Qilin, so he can just dry it off when he gets ashore.
Seeing Qin An's retreating figure, the archaeological team members became somewhat nervous. Even after death, Yu Shi Ping Yi was able to create a puddle of water in his own tomb. If he were to rise from the dead, it would be quite ferocious!
"Whoosh whoosh-"
Qin An completely ignored the knee-deep water and walked straight to the stone coffin.
Look down.
This stone coffin was no ordinary object; it was carved entirely from marble and was as tall as Qin An's thigh. The coffin lid was decorated with stone paintings depicting rain gods praying for rain.
There was still a faint trace of frost clinging to the gaps between the coffin lids and the coffin walls on both sides.
See this.
Qin An's eyes fixed.
He placed his hands on the left and right sides of the coffin lid, and then exerted force to lift it up sharply!
All of a sudden.
A chill burst forth from the stone coffin!
A whooshing sound came straight at Qin An's face.
"Puff-"
Qin An threw the coffin lid into the puddles, then raised his arms to shield his face. After the chill that had accumulated for thousands of years dissipated, Qin An lowered his arms and stared intently inside.
Inside the stone coffin lay a creature with the upper body of a human and the lower body resembling a dragon's tail. It was clutching a water bottle to its chest, and the chilling aura emanating from that bottle was what was causing the commotion.
Qin Anfu was inspired.
He felt that the water bottle was the very thing Rain Master Pingyi needed to survive. Even if Rain Master Pingyi rose from the dead, what difference would it make if he simply seized the water bottle?
Make bricks without straw.
So Qin An reached out to grab the water bottle with vacant eyes, but just then, Gu Wuyan's voice came from behind him.
"Ah Qin! Move quickly! The water in the tomb is about to freeze into ice."
Hear this.
Qin An's previously lifeless eyes regained some color.
He looked down.
The water that was previously above knee-deep had somehow become even colder, and a layer of frost had even formed on its surface!
If it had been just a few dozen seconds later!
I'm afraid my legs will really freeze too!
