Chapter 13
of the bronze artifacts. He kept the other half, including the bronze bean with the inscription "Four Characters from Jiehou," and gave it all to Wang Butou. On the day we split the money, our group...This was my first time doing this kind of work, and I wasn't very experienced. I thought the bone belonged to the tomb owner's remains.
Given the specifications of this tomb, if there were remains of the deceased owner, they should have been accompanied by burial goods. That's what I was thinking.
It could be some small, exquisite ancient bronze seals, jade artifacts, or gold items.
Greed overcame fear, and I kept comforting myself: "It's nothing, it's nothing. Who knows, there might even be a private seal of a warlord in that black hole What if I get lucky and dig it out Then I'll be rich!"
With a burst of courage, I reached down into the bottom of the tank again.
As I lay there, fidgeting with myself...
"Oh!"
I bit my finger, it feels like something just bit me! It hurts a lot.
I quickly pulled out my hand and saw that the front part of my fingers was bleeding, with two small holes.
My first reaction was that I had been bitten by a snake.
I don't know if it was a venomous snake, I was very scared, so I immediately pinched my fingers and shouted as I ran towards the east ear chamber.
"Second Brother! Third Brother! Second Brother! Third Brother! Help me!"
The East Ear Chamber had some scattered funerary objects on the floor. There were far fewer than in the West Ear Chamber. The Sun brothers were crouched down, sorting through them to see which items were valuable.
"Yun Feng, what are you yelling about! Are you possessed or something! Who would want to harm you!"
I showed him my bleeding fingers and cried out, “Second Brother! I was bitten by a venomous snake! I'm going to die from the poison!”
"What A venomous snake!" Sun Lao'er immediately panicked.
He looked at the wounds on Yun Feng's fingers for a moment, then asked suspiciously, "Third brother... these wounds and those two small eyes on Yun Feng's fingers, were they bitten by a snake"
Sun Lao San thought for a moment and shook his head. "It's kind of similar, but I don't think it's quite right, Second Brother. Yun Feng's fingers are only this wide. Look at the spacing of the wounds, there's no way a snake head that small could have caused them."
”
Sun Lao San squeezed the wound on my body, and fresh red blood immediately flowed out.
"It's nothing, Yunfeng. Look at the color of your blood; it looks so good. It wasn't bitten by a snake, let alone a venomous one. I guess it was probably a small mouse."
">
"Rats Rats still bite people, Third Brother"
"Of course, Yunfeng. You haven't seen much. Back in ancient times, during rat infestations, rats would even eat humans!"
"Yúnfēng, don't you feel dizzy, nauseous and uncomfortable"
I shook my head and said, "Third brother, I don't feel anything."
Stop thinking about it, it's nothing. Come help with the work, if you're not comfortable, you can go to the hospital tomorrow during the day and get a rabies shot.
"Oh," I nodded in agreement, relieved to know it wasn't a venomous snake.
It's rather strange, the funerary objects in this eastern ear chamber are far fewer than those in the western one. Logically speaking, they should be roughly equal, with both chambers having similar quantities of burial goods. However, after searching for a long time, we only found six or seven bronze artifacts of some value. The rest were mostly severely damaged, broken into pieces, and their original shapes were unrecognizable.
"Oh, we even brought so many pockets, thinking we could have another big haul. But look at this, just a bunch of junk!" Sun Lao Er grumbled angrily.
He pressed the intercom button and reported to the surface: "Head, it was all for nothing. The East Ear Chamber is so thin on resources, there's barely anything worth fighting. Just a bunch of trinkets."
”
The walkie-talkie fell silent for two minutes, then Wang ordered again, "Just count whatever you find. Let's hurry and find the main tomb chamber, the stuff inside the coffin is what's most valuable."
""
"Head, we've circled around down here and haven't found any trace of the main burial chamber. What's going on Head, you have a lot of experience, can you analyze this for us"

A burst of radio static laced with voices came through.
"That's impossible. Wealthy and powerful people in ancient times wouldn't have left themselves without a tomb after death. There's still some time, keep looking."to speak when Liu Yuanting stood up directly and said, "438, that's all I can come up with."">Both of us were stunned, is there really such a way to buy things"Hold on, I need to call a few shareholde...
