Chapter 44:

With this out of the way, the two of them didn't have the heart to stay on it any longer, and they didn't know if there were more such mice under the piles of white bones.

After they went down, they saw Jiang Qiao move the girl they rescued earlier to the corner, and were trying to awaken her consciousness. The two walked over, Jiang Qiao heard the footsteps behind him, turned his head and asked, "Are you still there? Okay? I just heard that there is a lot of movement above you, and I don't dare to disturb you if you don't speak."

"It's not a big problem, it's just that I almost lost my life." Xun Youling twitched the corners of her mouth and waved at Jiang Qiao the engineer shovel, which was still stained with the black blood of the mouse. "Next time something like this happens, let me go first."

"If you can take precautions, then it won't be an accident. Since trouble finds you, you can't run away." Ji Xinxi shook his head and answered Jiang Qiao's words.

Xun Youling didn't bother with this issue any more. She approached the girl and looked at her. There was no death on her face. It seemed that her life was not in danger, but her body was very yin, but who was in this ancient tomb? If it is buried in the pile of bones for a while, it will be covered with yin, especially if there is a water pool below, it is easy to gather yin when the water is wet.

Xun Youling thought for a while, then turned around and went to the water pool to put the engineer shovel into the water pool to clean it, then picked up a few empty jars placed next to the stone tripod, filled one hand with water and walked back, Ji Xin took the first step when he saw this. A little distance away from a few people, Xun Youling impatiently asked Jiang Qiao to step aside, and immediately poured the water from the pool in his hand towards the girl lying on the ground.

The water washed away most of the filth on the girl's body. Jiang Qiao was very clever at this moment, and he carried the empty can over, refilling it and sending it back. Xun Youling saw the filth on the girl's body. After the flushing was almost done, the last basin of water was raised to a high place and fell mercilessly against the girl's face.

The water in the jar hit the girl's face with the fall, even though she showed her original face, it also awakened the girl's drowsy consciousness.

The girl was lying on the ground. Xu coughed for a while because of the water in her nose. Then she slowly opened her eyes. Xun Youling greeted Ji Xinxi for a hand, and the two moved the girl to the place. a dry place.

"The smell on your body is quite intoxicating. Go take off your coat and wash it." Xun Youling frowned and said as she looked at Ji Xinxi.

When Ji Xin was fighting the mouse just now, her whole body seemed to be rolling in a pile of white bones. At this moment, her body was also stained with a lot of carrion and blood. She just forgot about it. When Xun Youling said it, she was covered in all of her body. Feeling uncomfortable, he nodded and took off his jacket.

"Wait, put this on, and flush your pants." Xun Youling took off her jacket and handed it to Ji Xinxi.

Ji Xinxi lowered her eyebrows slightly when she heard the words, and took Xun Youling's coat without a word. She came to the pool and tied Xun Youling's coat around her waist, and simply washed the surface of her jacket.

When she was doing these things, Xun Youling put his hand on the back of Jiang Qiao's head, artificially making him keep his back to Ji Xin and not looking sideways.

Soon Ji Xinxi walked back. Her pants were already worn back, and there were still some water stains on the surface. She spread the coat on the backpack. She handed the coat back to Xun Youling, who did not wear it. It was tied around their waists. Their short sleeves had never had a chance to dry after being soaked in the water pool. After tossing for so long, they just covered the clothes with their body temperature until they were half dry. Otherwise it is really uncomfortable.

Jiang Qiao didn't take it off, because he thought it was too hot on the way to Sihou Village, so he had already taken off the vest inside and put the jacket on his body, which was much more comfortable than Xun Youling and the others.

"Cough, cough, water." The girl lying on the ground finally slowed down and opened her mouth to shout for water. The voice was as hoarse as she was sawing wood. It was obvious that she couldn't speak out for help. Knock on the stone tripod for help.

"Hey, I said this classmate, if you were a little less timid, you might have scared you to death." Jiang Qiao took out the water in his backpack and handed it to the girl. As if he didn't unscrew the cap for a long time, he turned it around again.

The three quietly watched the girl drink a bottle of water in one breath. Xun Youling licked her mouth and suddenly felt a little thirsty. Just thinking about it, she felt a chill on her face. She was startled subconsciously and turned to the side. As soon as she saw Ji Xinxi handing a bottle of water to her, she took it ignorantly, thinking how this Ji Xinxi was like a roundworm in her stomach.

Ji Xinxi didn't care what Xun Youling was thinking, they didn't have time to drink water after tossing this night, and they were doing all the physical work. Xun Youling didn't even notice that her lips were peeling, so she put it on. Water was handed over.

"Classmate, are you okay? We are also from F University. You should be a member of the archaeological team who came here before, right? What happened to you? The school has been unable to contact you." Ji Xinxi squatted down and tried to let go He asked in a slow tone.

The girl's already pale complexion was even snow-white when she heard the words, her hands unconsciously moved the empty water bottle in her hands, and her body trembled like a sieve. Instead, she said in a good voice, "Don't be in a hurry, speak slowly, it will be better to say some things."

After waiting for a while, Ji Xinxi and the three people knew the situation of the archaeological team at that time in the hoarse voice of the girl.

Originally, when the archaeological team first went to Sihou Village, almost every member was high-spirited. There has been no news of new tombs being discovered for several years. Now they can actually participate in an undiscovered ancient tomb. During the excavation and investigation of the tomb, everyone who was still a student was very excited.

Professor Song, who led the team this time, is fifty-seven this year, and he didn't expect that he would retire. He was able to catch up with such an action. It was a rare good mood to make trouble with the students.

Even though the journey was hard, it was difficult to carry equipment and supplies, and the food and accommodation conditions were very simple, but this did not affect everyone's mood. After a few days of preliminary preparations, they successfully opened the passage to the ancient tomb.

The construction workers who helped clear the gravel to open the passage had just left that day. Even though it was already night, Professor Song couldn't hold back and wanted to go down to the tomb to have a look. The students advised him not to be so impulsive. If you don't go up, it's better to take a good rest and sleep, and then go down early the next morning.

But no matter how much everyone persuaded him, Professor Song had taken his weight seriously. He was both the teacher and the leader of the operation. On weekdays, everyone respected him very much, and basically would not refute what the old man said. When persuading him He didn't dare to speak out.

Now that Professor Song insists on going down, everyone has to rely on him. After all, he is the most professional person in this operation. Since Professor Song himself said that he is fine, it is not a big problem, so two boys followed Professor Song. Go to the tomb together.

A total of 6 members of the archaeological team came this time. Except for Professor Song, there were three boys and two girls, plus an expatriate Cheng Wenxing. After Professor Song and the two boys went down, there were still two men and two women on top, who looked after each other. Nothing at all.

At 9 o'clock in the evening, Professor Song took the people down, and the remaining four were waiting at the camp. One of them was Ji Xinxi, the girl in front of them. The girl's name was Ge Rong. Also rather timid and introverted.

A few people in the camp talked about their vision for this ancient tomb and how it would be envied by others when they returned. Ge Rong just sat by the side and listened quietly, occasionally adding a few words. As her daily life shifted, she lost interest in participating, and only noticed the time spent in this session. Professor Song had been down with everyone for more than two hours, and it was almost 12 o'clock in the evening.

She was worried if something happened under the ancient tomb, or if a few people chatted too much and didn't hear the contact below, so she expressed her concerns, and the other three stopped talking, although they didn't think it was a big deal. situation, but also fear of emergencies.

Cheng Wenxing was the quickest to respond. He was a sponsor and was somewhat different from the archaeological team in terms of identity. In addition, he was silent and did not speak much, and he had a vaguely undistinguished demeanor, so he immediately arranged three people. Together with him, we tried to find a way to contact the people under the ancient tomb, and the other three did what they said without refuting.

The three of them called each other to contact the two boys underground. Cheng Wenxing went to the entrance of the cave to check the situation, and Ge Rong went to get the walkie-talkie. They were in a hurry this time. There were only two walkie-talkies in total, one at Professor Song's place and the other one. fixed in the camp.

The two boys who followed Professor Song down couldn't get through. Cheng Wenxing also came back from the entrance of the cave, saying that he had called inside, and looked around the entrance of the cave, but it seemed that no one had come up.

This time, all three of them turned their attention to the walkie-talkie in Ge Rong's hand. This is the only contact method that has not been tried yet. Ge Rong is also a little nervous, but before she can turn on the walkie-talkie, she sees the power of the walkie-talkie. The signal light turned on by itself, and then there was an intermittent sound inside. The sound was very soft, and several people could not hear what was said inside.

Ge Rong was frightened and threw the walkie-talkie on the ground. One of the boys named Jia Qingfei picked it up and laughed at Ge Rong for making a fuss. It was estimated that the power button was stuck before, and now it will be turned on by itself. .

Jia Qingfei picked up the walkie-talkie, took a few steps and put the walkie-talkie close to his ear, not long after the other people saw him turn his head back in horror, and said stumblingly: "I remember, and Professor Song, go down. No, girl?"

At this time, Cheng Wenxing already felt that something was wrong, so he wanted to report to the school first. Because it was already night, he wanted to ask Jiang Qiao to go for a run.

Another girl over there nodded to Jia Qingfei, indicating that she and Ge Rong were the only two girls in the action team. They were about to ask Jia Qingfei what was going on when the walkie-talkie in Jia Qingfei's hand suddenly rang. After a while, the woman's cry became louder and louder, and even became a bit harsh.

This time, the expressions of everyone present changed.
