Chapter 468: The Meteorite Jade Black Coffin and the Strange Anecdotes
"It's the meteorite in the mural! I never thought it was hidden in the underground palace of the Queen of Jingjue, and it's so huge!"
Wu Tianzhen said.
Yang Xueli: "More than that, it's also a piece of meteorite jade."
Fatty: "Is there any difference between this and an ordinary meteorite?"
"What do you think? Meteorite jade is also jade, such a big piece of jade."
"Besides, meteorite jade is very rare and is said to have various mysterious effects. Ancient emperors once collected it to make jade clothes with golden threads..."
Wang Kai suddenly pointed forward and said, "Look, there is a coffin over there!"
Everyone looked in the direction of Wang Kai's arm.
Directly below the cone was a square platform, about the size of a basketball court, built with black stone bricks. It extended downward like a Mayan pyramid, leading to a bottomless dark abyss.
On the platform, there was a black coffin the size of an Isuzu, which was simple in style and unremarkable in appearance.
Two men with extraordinary aura stood next to the coffin.
A man in his forties, dressed in a suit and tie, slightly plump, with kind eyes, elegant and calm, looking like a cured meat nobleman who could have inherited the throne even though he was a child.
The other one was tall and strong, with a resolute face, like a soldier. He looked to be in his thirties, wearing a black tights, and looked murderous.
Both are handsome guys with outstanding looks, one is a scholar and the other is a killer.
Huang Yaozu led everyone across the overpass and came in front of the two people.
"Professor Wesley, these people are from the provincial archaeological team."
The elegant and handsome old man in a suit turned around, looked at everyone and smiled kindly.
"You are quite capable to be here. My name is Wesley, you can call me Professor Wei."
"This is Xu Xi. Like A-Zu, he is my bodyguard."
Your bodyguard is pretty awesome... Everyone silently complained in their hearts. Huang Yaozu is so powerful, and he is not bad compared to Xu Xi.
"Oh my god, so many snakes!"
The fat man suddenly screamed, scaring everyone.
Everyone then noticed that the black coffin was surrounded by dead snakes everywhere. They were the same poisonous black snakes they had encountered before. There were several layers of them stacked up in a black mass, and there might be tens of thousands of them.
Huang Yaozu scratched his head and muttered: "There are too many snakes here..."
With a wave of his hand, a black shadow emerged from his sleeves and instantly spread out to cover the ground around everyone.
After the black shadow retracted, all the strange snake corpses on the ground disappeared.
Professor Wei and the other bodyguard looked as if they were used to it.
After listening to Xu Bayi and others' account of the whole story, Wesley held his chin with his hand and thought for two seconds.
He laughed, "Are you here to look for the Zhuchen Pearl?"
Xu Bayi and others were stunned and looked a little embarrassed. They didn't expect that even though they had deliberately concealed the key information, the other party still guessed it.
"Professor Wei, how did you guess that?"
"Hehe... I heard that there is a tribe called Zagrama, who was cursed by the Queen of Jingjue and had short lifespans for generations. Therefore, the tribe members have been looking for the Zhuchen Pearl to break the curse for generations... There should be descendants of this tribe among you, right?"
Yang Xueli was moved, and stepped forward and asked excitedly: "How do you know these secrets? Do you know my grandfather?"
"Your grandpa?"
"Partridge Whistle, the last descendant of the Mountain Moving Lineage."
"So you are the descendant of the Banshan clan... Sorry, I don't know your grandfather. I just happened to have heard the story of your clan."
Professor Wei said apologetically.
He turned around and looked at the black coffin next to him. "But if you look for the Zhuchen Pearl first, you may be disappointed. The Zhuchen Pearl has been taken away."
The black coffin has been opened by Professor Wei and his team.
The coffin is filled with amber-like golden translucent substance, forming a layer of crystal coffin.
Inside the crystal coffin, there lay an exotic woman with a charming figure, delicate skin, and a lifelike appearance. Her clothes were exactly the same as the Queen of Jingjue in the mural.
Some organisms sealed in amber can preserve their postures from billions of years ago and even suggest the completion of the genes of prehistoric organisms.
The substances in the coffin obviously have similar effects, and are even more miraculous.
The body of the Queen of Jingjue was able to be preserved intact, and even after thousands of years, it still looks no different from a living person.
Just like Snow White sleeping in the crystal coffin in the fairy tale.
There was a red bead embedded on the female corpse's snow-white forehead, which made it look like a third eye, blood-red and eerie.
"Isn't this the Zhuchen Pearl on the Queen's head?"
The fat man asked puzzledly.
Yang Xueli looked gloomy and shook her head.
Wu Tianzhen pondered for a moment, "This thing must have been put there by someone behind the scenes. It's a substitute..."
Professor Wei told the truth, "This is a corpse turtle pill, and there is a king sealed inside. This insect can secrete a special preservative substance that makes the corpse immortal and even maintains a certain degree of activity. This is a secret technique of longevity used by the Queen Mother of the West."
Professor Wei's words surprised everyone.
The fat man glared, "You mean, this woman is still alive?!"
Professor Wei shook his head. "It's just a zombie. You can think of it as a piece of meat that is not completely dead."
Wu Tianzhen nodded in agreement and said in a deep voice: "We have also encountered a tomb owner who wanted to achieve immortality in this way in the Lu Palace before. As a result, the tomb owner turned into a monster..."
Wu Tianzhen recounted their experiences in pursuit of the secret technique of longevity of the Queen Mother of the West, and also explained the purpose of their trip.
No hiding.
Professor Wei was surprised: "Oh, you want to find the secret of the longevity of the Queen Mother of the West? You are very brave. You should know that the longevity technique of the Queen Mother of the West is not a good thing. Blood corpses, forbidden women, corpse ghosts... In short, people who are infected with these evil techniques will eventually become monsters without reason, neither human nor ghost."
"Professor Wei, do you also know about the Queen Mother of the West?"
Wu Tianzhen was surprised by Professor Wei's erudition.
"I know a little bit, a little bit. I have a wide range of interests... ahem, let's get back to the topic."
Professor Wei pointed to the huge meteorite above everyone's heads and said, "As for the Queen Mother of the West, she may still be alive and hiding in here."
"what?!"
Everyone was shocked.
Is Queen Mother of the West still alive?
How can it be!
That was a person who lived more than 5,000 years ago!
Professor Wei smiled calmly and said, "Just go and take a look and you'll know."
Professor Wei winked at Xu Xi beside him. The man in black, who had said nothing from beginning to end, nodded, jumped on the spot, and stepped on the coffin for leverage.
Then it flew straight up, just like the heroes on TV performing light Kung Fu, and jumped into the meteorite more than ten meters above everyone's heads.
Two climbing ropes hung down from the hole in the meteorite.
"Let's go and find the Queen Mother of the West. Maybe she has another Zhuchen Pearl."
After Professor Wei finished speaking, he grabbed the climbing rope and climbed up nimbly. His movements were as agile as those of a special forces soldier.
It seems that this gentle and refined professor has extraordinary skills.
"I'll go up first."
Huang Yaozu was even more exaggerated. After saying hello to everyone, he flew up whoosh.
——It really was flown.
Xu Bayi and others looked at each other, and finally climbed up one by one obediently.
