Chapter 637 Tomb Raiding (13)
Since that day, the relationship between the three has undergone a subtle change, and Zhang Haiguan and Xie Yuchen have begun preparing their dowries.
But going to the Xisha Islands is more important right now. The backup archaeological team insisted on going outside to wait, fearing that they might blow up the tomb again.
However, for safety reasons, the request was not granted to these people. After all, the tomb in Xisha was far from safe, and these experts would not get away with it.
Xiao Hua contributed his luxury cruise ship, and the group boarded the ship and headed to their destination.
On the way, we encountered a dilapidated ghost ship. I don't know where they found such a rusty ship that could still drift so precisely over.
Despite the complaints, the performance still had to be done, so the bizarrely shaped and extremely ugly sea monkey appeared. As expected, there's nothing that can't be found in the tomb, only things we don't know. We also don't know what kind of experimental subject this thing was.
Wu Xie brought out a notebook from the ghost ship. It was a brand new notebook, the kind that Wu Sansheng and others used to take when they went down to Xisha. It looked like it was deliberately put there, but Wu Xie didn't suspect anything at all.
Upon arriving at their destination, the group changed into their diving suits and went down into the water. On the way, they encountered a waterspout and were sucked directly into the ancient tomb.
The tomb chamber looked quite clean, and then Wangyou saw a little Yin spirit, tiny and adorable.
The Forget-Me-Not Little Yin Spirit was put away. After leaving, let's send him to be reincarnated, hoping he will be safe and prosperous in his next life.
After passing through a series of mechanisms, they arrived at their final destination, the Heavenly Palace on the Clouds.
Putting aside everything else, this pure gold model of the Heavenly Palace on the Clouds is worth a lot of money, and it cannot be described in terms of money alone; its archaeological value is also immeasurable.
After they disposed of the mummified corpse in the center of the Cloud Palace model, Wangyou put the model away and was about to leave when Wu Xie, displaying his wicked nature, encountered a forbidden woman.
The old woman must have really liked him; she almost took him back to be her husband. But there's no future for old women, so the beautiful old woman could only disappear with regret.
"It...it didn't explode, did it?" The old professor, who had climbed onto the cruise ship and was waiting anxiously, asked impatiently.
"It didn't explode. There's no danger inside anymore. You can organize people to conduct archaeological work."
"Thank goodness it didn't explode! Thank goodness it didn't explode!"
Looking at the old professor's expression, everyone thought to themselves, "Wu Xie must have given the old professor quite a fright!"
After returning home, the model was handed in, and everyone received their due payment; after all, they couldn't have gone out for nothing.
Zhang Haiguan and Xie Yuchen arrived with their respective dowries. "Wangyou, you said you would take responsibility, so you can't go back on your word. We've brought our dowries."
"I have no intention of going back on my word. I'll give each of you a house as a betrothal gift!"
After making this happy decision, the three of them chose an auspicious day and got married in front of everyone.
"I thought she'd be alone forever, but she was a quiet person who surprised everyone by finding two people at once!" the person remarked with some emotion.
"The three of them look so good together. With their looks and appearance, anyone who is less attractive would be embarrassed to stand next to them."
"That's good, hopefully she won't grab me by the collar in the middle of the night." The woman who witnessed the three-person wedding said with a smile.
The next day, Wangyou slept until evening. Looking at the marks on her body, she regretted it a little. What should she do? Neither of them were born in the Year of the Dog, yet they kept leaving marks on her.
So, on the second day of their marriage, Wangyou threw the two out of the room. Actually, marriage didn't seem to be a good thing; it was all because she was too greedy.
But it would be strange if Zhang Haiguan and Xie Yuchen were the kind of people who would obediently follow orders; the two of them climbed through the window and entered the bridal chamber.
Gradually, as time went on, Wangyou got used to it. Although her first reaction upon waking up every day was to beat someone up, it couldn't be said that this wasn't a gain.
Afterwards, they went to the Heavenly Palace on the Clouds and saw the so-called King of Ten Thousand Slaves and the Bronze Gate.
“The contents are different,” Zhang Haiguan explained cautiously to Xie Yuchen in a low voice.
Wangyou followed Zhang Haiguan into the bronze gate, where they saw the so-called ultimate thing: a yellowish little chick. But this little chick was anything but peaceful, full of malevolence.
After thinking for a second, Wangyou searched for the dragon vein. Good heavens, the dragon vein was so polluted that it had turned into a snake. It was probably because this little chick kept taking a bite out of it.
Wangyou reached out and grabbed the chick, then stuffed it into the contaminated dragon vein's mouth. The dragon vein visibly grew larger, but it was still not big enough.
Wangyou suddenly remembered the energy in those meteorites, and tentatively took out a piece of bronze tree branch. Soon, the bronze tree branch turned into dust, and the dragon vein changed a little. Wangyou simply took out the rest of the bronze tree branches.
Finally, the Ghost Seal was also absorbed by the Dragon Vein. Wangyou casually took the Dragon Vein out of the Bronze Gate, and the Bronze Gate gradually petrified until it was completely transformed into a stone wall.
"It seems we need to get to our next destination as soon as possible."
After returning and resting for three days, the group headed to Tamutuo. As for the transit station, Golmud Sanatorium, it was demolished and rebuilt; such a large piece of land was too wasteful to leave empty.
The journey to the Queen Mother of the West's palace is extremely dangerous. Not to mention the hordes of corpse beetles, the snakes in the rainforest are also difficult to deal with, making it difficult to carry out archaeological work here.
The people Wu Sansheng summoned became the vanguard for clearing the minefield, and unsurprisingly, everyone except the leader had a phoenix tattoo.
After crossing the snake swamp, we arrived at the Palace of the Queen Mother of the West. But one thing was very strange: as the king of a kingdom, there was not much gold and silver treasure in the tomb, which was very unusual.
The moment Wangyou saw the meteorite jade, she felt the dragon vein in her pocket was incredibly excited. It seemed she had guessed correctly; the meteorite jade could replenish the dragon vein. Wangyou simply released the dragon vein, which darted into the hole in a flash.
Wangyou clearly felt the energy in the meteorite jade disappearing, and also heard a sharp scream coming from inside. It seemed that the Queen Mother of the West was indeed not dead, but if she wasn't dead, she should be dead now.
After a while, the dragon vein, which had transformed into a small dragon, emerged and excitedly burped, "Go where you're supposed to be!"
The dragon vein reluctantly nuzzled Wangyou's cheek before disappearing into the earth's veins.
The Dragon Vein also told Wangyou a piece of news: there was a giant snake in this tomb that was about to transform into a dragon. It was raised by the Queen Mother of the West and had absorbed some of the power of the Dragon Vein. Now, she had taken it back, and the giant snake was dead. However, its nest was indeed piled with mountains of gold and silver.
While everyone was busy moving things, Wangyou stood in front of the meteorite. In a daze, Wangyou seemed to see a scene. In the scene, there was her father and mother. She became pregnant while they were looking for the meteorite. And that child was her. She was exposed to a lot of radiation in her mother's womb and absorbed the radiation from her mother, which is why she became a long-lived person.
It's actually quite absurd. I've only ever heard of radiation causing death, never of radiation making living organisms live longer.
The moment the dragon vein returned, the authorities located the family behind the scenes who were searching for immortality, namely the Wang family, and quickly launched a series of actions.
