Chapter 35 The Sound of Running Water

Professor Zhang's eyes lit up, and he said with a surprise expression: "Yes, the maid's behavior is indeed abnormal, and Brother Ye can see it clearly. But there is no other record here, and I don't know where to look for the information behind."

"I think Princess Loulan will definitely not give up on this matter. If you find the ancient city of Loulan, maybe there will be a result, or there will be a record of Princess Loulan's tomb." Ye Muchen said.

"Open!Open!" Suddenly, the cheers of others were heard.

Professor Zhang and Ye Muchen turned around and saw Dr. Gu, Liao Yunfei, Yang Ying, and four mercenaries slowly opening the sarcophagus.

Everyone else looked curiously at the coffin lid moved away bit by bit. The coffin lid was heavy, so the four of them could move slowly together.

The moment the coffin lid was removed, everyone heard the sound of running water. The four of them immediately stopped. Jia Jia frowned and said, "Why is there a sound of running water?"

"No, there is no water around the location of this cemetery, and the sound can be heard so clearly?" Dr. Gu muttered in confusion.

At first, the mercenary who had heard the sound of running water in the passage shouted in panic: "It's this, what I just heard was this sound, and it kept appearing in my ears."

"Can there be a passage inside the sarcophagus and there is groundwater under it?" Ux said immediately.

"Open it and then talk about it." Mr. Guo said.

The four continued to remove the lid of the coffin, and the others shone the flashlight into the sarcophagus. They saw that there was clear water inside. Under the water was a headless corpse, wearing gorgeous armor, and holding a two-handed sword with gems inlaid.

"How could this happen! This is unreasonable! Unscientific?" Dr. Gu was surprised, shook his head and muttered in disbelief.

Lin Xiaofei just picked up the camera and was about to take a photo. Suddenly, the sound of running water came from the sarcophagus, and the water level inside was falling rapidly.

This surprised everyone. In just one minute, all the water in the sarcophagus was flowing, and the sarcophagus was empty, only the two-handed sword held in the hand of the corpse just now.

"What the hell is going on? Could it be that the corpse I just saw was an illusion?" a mercenary asked in surprise.

This is the first time everyone has encountered this kind of thing, and no one can explain it. Everyone has seen the corpse in the water just now, but why it disappeared with the water is really hard to explain.

As he was talking, suddenly the first mercenary who heard the sound of running water walked to the sarcophagus in a daze and reached for the sword inside.

Dr. Gu immediately shouted: "Don't move, it may damage cultural relics!"

"Boge! Stop." Yang Ying shouted, but the mercenary named Boge ignored it. He picked up the two-handed sword and turned to look at the others. His eyes were obviously not right.

Yang Ying immediately winked at the two mercenaries around him, raised his rifle and shouted at him, "Boge, put down the sword."

The two mercenaries slowly approached, and Boge suddenly roared, swept across the sword with both hands. The mercenary approaching the left was startled and wanted to avoid it, but Boge's sword was faster than imagined, and he just squatted halfway and cut half of his head with both hands.

"Bastard." Yang Ying was furious and shot Boge's feet.

The bullet penetrated his thighs, but Boge's body just shook, and the mercenary on the other side rushed forward, clamped his arm around his neck, trying to subdue him.

But Boge completely ignored the neck being strangled, held his hands and stabbed his sword, stabbed into his stomach, penetrated through his back, and penetrated through the belly of the mercenary behind him.

Everyone was stunned when they saw this scene. Liao Yunfei immediately protected Jia Jia behind him and drew out his saber to face Boge.

Everyone else retreated to the edge of the tomb chamber, and everyone felt something was wrong with Boge. This was definitely not a desire to make money. No one knew the value of this sword, so there was no need to rob it, and this style of fighting was completely a madman's behavior.

Yang Ying had already seen Boge's abnormality and continued to shoot, and several consecutive gunfires were pierced through Boge's hands and legs.

But this only made Boge's movements stagnate for two seconds. He smiled strangely, grabbed the hilt of the sword with both hands and slowly pulled out the blade, and blood flowed down his legs to the ground.

The mercenary behind him who was pierced his stomach screamed in pain, took a few steps back, covering his stomach with a painful expression, the blade of the sword with both hands was very wide, and the wound on his stomach was very big, and he tore it a little open when he pulled it out, which almost made him lose his strength.

Boge held the bloody sword and walked towards Dr. Gu, with bloody footprints on each step. At this time, the gunshot sounded again. Boge was shot and Yang Ying was shot.

Others here will be concerned about Yang Ying, and it is difficult to kill his men. After all, they still need their protection along the way. If you don’t hold a grudge, you may die in the middle of the way, or if you deliberately don’t save you in times of danger, the consequences will be serious.

Boge's brain was penetrated, his body was shocked, and his sword fell to the ground with both hands, fell to the ground, and died with his eyes open.

Yang Ying immediately went over to stop bleeding for the mercenaries who pierced their stomachs, but the wound was too big, and this sword cut off the intestines, so it was impossible to save them in such an environment.

The man took out his military card and handed it to Yang Ying and said, "Boss, there is compensation, it's enough for my parents to retire."

"Enough." Yang Ying nodded with gritted teeth.

"That's good, it's not in vain. Hey, you're a mercenary. Sooner or later, you're not saying that you shouldn't do this business if you're afraid of death."

Yang Ying nodded and said, "Brothers will take care of your family on your behalf. As long as I am still alive, I guarantee that they will be worry-free in the rest of their lives."

"Thank you." The mercenary smiled and handed his kettle to Yang Ying. He lay on the ground, his eyes began to dissipate and his body gradually became cold.

The wound of this sword was too big and the blood was flowing too fast. He completely lost his breath in just a few minutes.

"Eagle, I will give you double the money for the person who died this time." Mr. Guo sighed and patted his shoulder and said.

Yang Ying nodded and took away the mercenaries' ammunition, food and water, without saying a word.

Although Mr. Guo is usually generous, he cannot really pay double the money. Hiring these people is very expensive, and he agreed that someone would have to pay compensation if he died.

The purpose of saying double is to stabilize the hearts of mercenaries. Now everyone understands that the journey must be dangerous. Now that we have reached a position, so many people have died. I don’t know if we can go back alive.

People like Yang Ying are their own amulets. At this time, they can stabilize the morale of the army by saying something. No matter what they say, he doesn't care.

Although it was dangerous, no one proposed to give up. They had already expected it to be dangerous here. As Mr. Guo said, if there were no other purpose, who would come to such a place? There were many ways to make money, and their identity and background were not ordinary, so there was no need to use their lives to make money.

"This sword is evil, I think we should leave." Professor Zhang said. The two students who followed him were also scared. The incident just now was too strange. Everyone knew that this could not be a sudden madness, it must be related to this ancient tomb.

Ye Muchen said: "The image that appeared in the stone coffin just now is the prince, which is consistent with the content on the mural. The prince committed suicide by committing suicide by committing suicide by being cut off by Princess Loulan and was used to stimulate her. This sword was left specifically. I think it may have something to do with the ancient city of Loulan. Maybe it is a key item, so I suggest bringing it with me."

"But what if I get this sword and go crazy?" Lin Xiaofei said in panic.

"When Boge got this sword, there was a problem, so it should have nothing to do with this sword, it should have something to do with the sound of flowing water." Jia Jia said.

"That's right, Boge did say at the beginning that he heard the sound of running water, but why he could hear it, we couldn't hear it. This was the key to his sudden madness." Yang Ying said.

Professor Zhang looked at Ye Muchen and asked, "Brother Ye, what do you think?"
