Here, the Yao Village at the bottom of the lake is very close to the ancient Zhang family building rebuilt by the Zhang family in the late Qing Dynasty.
To be precise, in the very center of Yao Village, there is an ancient Zhang family building above the ground.
Of course, this is only an insignificant part of the ancient buildings designed by "Shi Shi Lei" for the Zhang family in the late Qing Dynasty.
All the secrets of the Zhang Family Ancient Building are hidden underground...hidden deep in the mountains in front of you.
It’s not surprising that when I get closer to the ancient Zhang family building, I may be affected by some kind of strange force and be able to awaken some of my memories.
Hu Ming knew this very well.
Back then, the secret behind that person's plot to plot the Zhang Family Ancient Mansion was not only the longevity method being researched by the Zhang Family, but also the mysterious power at the deepest level of the Zhang Family Ancient Mansion.
The incredible power that absorbs the essence of dragon veins and is rumored to be able to bring people back to life!
"As for the Yao Village at the bottom of the lake... I seem to have remembered something, but I also seem to have remembered nothing."
"In my impression, there seems to be something closely related to me there."
The young man looked at the lake in confusion, as if he wanted to see through the green lake surface and see the secrets hidden in the Yao Village at the bottom of the lake.
It took a long time for the little brother to come back to his senses.
After a brief silence, everyone turned their attention to what the little brother had brought up.
As for the dead bones that Hu Ming brought up.
What's so interesting about this thing?
Is it possible to identify people by identifying bones? Determine the identity of the deceased through the incomplete bones?
What nonsense!
The dead bones only prove that the bones of the archaeological team back then were indeed siphoned to an unknown location.
What the little brother brought here is a little bit eye-catching.
It was a black thing about the size of a hiking bag, and it was covered with a mass of rotting black tentacles...
I always say it's really disgusting.
This thing was swollen by the lake water and looked like a ball.
In terms of its specific appearance...it is roughly similar to the rotting corpses of dead pigs and dogs floating in the water.
Looking at this thing, Fatty and Wu Xie felt a little disgusted and quickly stayed away from it.
"Damn it, little brother, you are so damn capable. You just get whatever is disgusting, right?"
From time to time, some viscous and unpleasant-smelling liquid spewed out from that thing, which looked very much like corpse water...
The fat man was not bad at all. His face turned green immediately after being bitten.
It's disgusting.
The younger brother didn't take it seriously. He jumped onto the rubber boat and with a wave of his hand, he pressed directly on top of the "rotten corpse" and saw the "corpse water" squeezed out.
Then he tore off the disgusting tentacles on it, and the black gold sword flashed away, making a big gash in the "rotten corpse".
A closer look revealed that the tentacle thrown into the water by the oil bottle was actually just a strange aquatic plant.
And that "rotten corpse"
"This is an old-fashioned cowhide bag, a box used to carry luggage... It's not a rotting corpse."
The little brother took out something from it and explained calmly.
The outer layer of cowhide has been rotted by blisters, leaving only a thin backing.
There is a wire rack inside to support the cowhide bag from falling apart.
The first thing that caught the eye in the cowhide bag was a rotten cotton-like substance. Judging from the shape, it was probably the remnants of a stall that had been soaked in water.
The fat man looked a little worried at the little brother's slow movements, so he simply pulled out the paratrooper's knife from his waist and stirred it inside.
Soon, the contents were taken out.
Inside were three combs, a badge, a wooden picture frame, a box of Paragon's cream, and a box of tea cans.
"There were only two female members of that archaeological team back then, Wen Jin and Huo Ling. Guess who belongs to them?"
Hu Ming tossed the photo frame up and down, which had become a mess of colored strips, arranged the three combs one by one, and asked with interest.
Except for women, no man has ever been seen carrying three combs of different sizes when going out.
Of course, except for sissies.
After all, sissies are a group of strange creatures that are neither male nor female, and it’s not surprising what kind of behavior those people do.
It's just that at that time, as an archaeological team member, there shouldn't be such a weird species, right?
"Who cares about her, it doesn't matter!"
The fat man casually threw away the photo frame that Hu Ming threw over. This thing was no longer useful. The photo was blurred into a pile of color strips, and no information could be seen at all.
Several people turned over the rest of the things one by one.
Dangdangdang...
When the tea can was turned over, the sound of metal colliding suddenly came from inside.
A few people look at each other, something interesting!
The tea can was made of iron and had been immersed in the lake water for many years. It had been embroidered and could not be opened. Hu Ming simply used brute force to open the lid and poured out a piece of black stuff.
Seeing this, Hu Ming raised his eyebrows and whistled.
Fatty Wu Xie and the two men immediately exclaimed.
Even the little brother's face changed slightly.
What was poured out of the tea can... was surprisingly similar to the iron block hidden under the brother's bed!
Put it under your nose, and through the smell of rotten rust, you can vaguely smell a strange fragrance.
"It's this kind of thing again... What on earth were those archaeological team horsemen doing back then? Why were they playing with corpses?"
The fat man angrily washed his hands in the lake and muttered in disgust.
Hu Ming had already introduced the essence of this thing to several people before.
This is part of the remains of a failed experiment on immortality.
However, there are some differences between the iron block in front of me and the one under my brother's bed.
There are no traces of corrosion by strong acid or strong alkali on this piece of iron.
Judging from the patterns above, the two indeed come from the same whole.
At this point, all the clues seem to be connected.
"Is everything I want to know buried in this lake?"
Wu Xie worked hard to find out the underwater situation in one go.
But unfortunately, this is not a job that can be accomplished overnight, and long-term planning must be done.
Moreover, his body could not support him from going into the water again in a short time.
Several people made marks on the water with nylon ropes and floats, drew rubber boats and went ashore to rest.
It is worth mentioning that Wu Xie's current appearance is a bit miserable.
Many capillaries burst all over the body, and there was congestion everywhere under the skin. Even the corners of the eyes, ears, and nostrils were slowly bleeding.
Bleeding from the seven orifices is roughly what it looks like.
This look frightened Agui and Yuncai.
He quickly used local methods to provide emergency treatment for Wu Xie.
While waiting for dinner, Hu Ming had already sketched on paper a sketch of the village he saw at the bottom of the lake...
