"Jade-like bones, this is the legendary bones of a celestial!"
Hu Gong looked at the skeleton for a long time before muttering.
"Oh? You've heard of it before? "Professor Xiang's eyes lit up.
"I've heard of it from my grandfather, and my grandfather also heard of it from my grandfather's grandfather …" Hu Gong smiled bitterly. "My family has been archaeologists for generations. It's said that my ancestor was also a cultivator and had an encounter with celestial fate … Later on, one of my ancestors took a silk scroll left by my ancestor and dug out a huge tomb. He dug out this celestial bone …"
"And then?"
Sun Yuan asked with a trembling voice.
"Then, my ancestor … met … a real, living celestial!"
Hu Gong's voice was ethereal. "That celestial said that he came from the Gourd Grotto-Heaven and was fated with the jade bones that my ancestor dug out …"
Gulp!
Jin Gong's throat moved. "Then the celestial took your ancestor as his disciple and passed him some silk scroll and elixir?"
"No!"
Hu Gong smiled bitterly. "Then the celestial was struck to death by lightning! Even the jade bones and the huge tomb … were destroyed by the power of heaven. Only my ancestor was lucky enough to escape. He hurriedly made arrangements and left … It's said that there's a law in the human world that forbids celestials from appearing. Otherwise, they'll be struck by lightning! "
"Tsk, isn't that just a story?" Jin Gong felt bored.
"Uh, I only heard it as a story. But after seeing the jade bones, I'm starting to believe it." Hu Gong said.
"Alright, this might just be because this Huang Danzi had some orthopedic disease when she was alive and then used some chemicals after she became a corpse. That's why this happened. We can extract some components and wait for the lab test results …"
Professor Xiang ended the conversation and continued to open the coffin.
The coffin was very small. The jade bone corpse laid in it. Most of its clothes were still intact. The corpse lay flat with its face facing upwards, holding a bamboo scroll in its right hand.
This bamboo scroll was made of an unknown material. It seemed to be made of bamboo but also seemed to be mixed with some metal. There were three ancient hieroglyphs on it.
"Mountain and Sea … Scripture? It's an ancient book — Mountain and Sea Scripture! "
Professor Xiang's eyes lit up. "That's great! This is a great discovery in the history of archaeology! "
"Is this really the real Mountain and Sea Scripture?"
Worker Hu also widened his eyes.
It was because the Classic of Mountains and Seas was too famous, and most of the versions that remained were made up by the dynasties after Yan Han. As a result, there were more than three thousand different versions, and the literary world was in an uproar because of this.
But now, the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" unearthed from the tomb of Yan Han was very likely to be the authentic one. It was the strongest evidence, enough to close the coffin in the debate!
Sun Yuan also looked at the bamboo scroll with a fervent expression as he tried to decipher the ancient characters.
However, in the next moment, he suddenly heard an intense ringing in his ears.
Pong!
The ear-piercing sound violently assaulted the eardrums, and it seemed to be mixed with endless ravings.
In front of his eyes, strange and dazzling images appeared one after another.
Bang!
In the end, Sun Yuan fell down stiffly …
…
"It's Xing Mountain again …"
At the peak of Xing Mountain, Chung Shen-soo stood with his hands clasped behind his back as if he was overlooking the scenery.
At this moment, the entire Xing Mountain started to sway slightly. Countless small animals fled in all directions. It was like the scene before an earthquake.
"What did you sense? Are you still unwilling to give up? It's a pity that this isn't the Revival of Spiritual Tide, and it's not your era anymore! "
He stomped his feet, and the entire mountain immediately quietened down. It was as if the slight trembling just now was just an illusion.
Chung Shen-soo's gaze moved slightly, as if he had seen everything that happened in the ancient tomb.
Yes, that was indeed the tomb of a cultivator. He didn't do anything to it, and he only stuffed the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" into it.
At this moment, looking at the campsite that was starting to become chaotic, he curled his lips. His figure flashed, and he arrived at a park in Tianxing City. He sat on a bench leisurely and fed the pigeons beside him.
"… In fact, there's another cultivator's inheritance in the human world. It's the ancestor of the Earth Immortals in the Gourd Grotto-Heaven, Liu Ji … Back then, he wasn't willing to ascend and became an immortal in the mortal world. In order to protect the cultivators under him, he even bet his spiritual treasure …
"In recent years, in order to ensure the digestion, the human world's heavenly rules were strict. Even the cultivators from the Gourd Grotto-Heaven were killed when they came out. This caused the immortal cultivators in the human world to disappear, and no one believed in the theory of immortals and gods anymore. This satisfied the precondition of digesting the" Secret History Fragment "…
"The next ritual is the key to digesting it. According to my previous speculation … this isn't directing the Revival of Spiritual Qi or the cultivation of the entire population, but guiding a small group of people to understand the true history … It's best if there are also elements of secrecy and secrecy …"
This directly led to the death of a certain Undead Immortal from the Demon Sect at the foot of Xing Mountain. He basically couldn't even think about coming out anymore.
"So … you won't be able to enjoy something as good as the new Immortal Dao. It's better to feel the horror of the unknown and mystery!"
Chung Shen-soo looked at a certain hospital. His gaze seemed to be … filled with pity.
…
In a trance, Sun Yuan seemed to see towering mountains, all kinds of human-headed and bird-bodied monsters, and mournful and terrifying shadows in the shadows …
In his ears, all kinds of murmurs and crazy shouts switched back and forth.
"Ah!"
He woke up with a start and found himself lying on a hospital bed. Beside him were his good friends, Hua Peng and Xia Fanxing.
"You're awake?"
Hua Peng hurriedly got up. "I'll call the doctor!"
"I … What happened?"
Sun Yuan looked at Xia Fanxing, speechless.
"I heard that you fainted in the tomb and was sent to the hospital, so I came to see you." Xia Fanxing put down the fruit basket. "It's good that you're fine. I'll leave first."
"Sigh …"
Sun Yuan didn't ask him to stay. He only sighed. He also thought of the scene before he lost consciousness. "Is my body that weak? I actually fainted in the tomb. I'm doomed for this internship … "
"Also … that illusion and the murmurs I heard, what were they? Could it be that I'm mentally ill? "
Just as he was letting his imagination run wild, the doctor came in and did a series of examinations on him. He announced that he was very healthy and could be discharged immediately.
Sun Yuan thought about it. He wasn't in a hurry to be discharged. Instead, he asked Hua Peng for his phone and called Professor Xiang.
After a short wait, the call was connected. "Professor Xiang, I'm Sun Yuan. I'm very sorry …"
Sun Yuan hurriedly apologized and asked, "The doctor said I'm fine. What about the internship?"
"Sigh … The situation here isn't very good …"
Professor Xiang's sigh could be heard from the other end of the phone. "We had already taken protective measures to take out the bamboo slip that recorded the 'Classic of Mountains and Seas', but it was completely destroyed the moment we left the ancient tomb …"
"How is that possible?"
Sun Yuan's eyes widened. His heart ached even more.
That was a historical document that could shock the world!
