c31 what did he say

“Professor, I think you should take a look at this!” At this time, a male student said seriously. (Due to caching reasons, please visit the COM website directly with your browser to watch the fastest chapter updates)

“What’s the matter?” Professor Ning felt that human life was at stake, and this shouldn’t be the focus of his attention now.

“The thing Zhou Ming saw before the accident was a mural! It was extremely well preserved, and… it hadn’t been oxidized yet!” the male student said with an incredulous look on his face.

Generally speaking, the environment of ancient tombs is basically an oxygen-poor state. In the early stages of the formation of the tombs, the tomb chambers contained a certain concentration of oxygen. As the materials in the tombs oxidized and decomposed, the oxygen was gradually exhausted, forming a closed oxygen-poor environment. This is One of the important factors for the long-term preservation of buried cultural relics.

Relatively speaking, the environment of the tomb chamber is relatively stable, but once it is excavated, air quickly penetrates, the environmental conditions change rapidly and violently, the oxidation reaction accelerates rapidly, and the carbonization reaction of free radicals occurs, and the carbonization of organic matter is inevitable.

Before their archaeological team came over, the door of the tomb had been broken open by working machines, air poured in, and the oxidation reaction had already begun.

Under normal circumstances, the pottery pots, gold and silver vessels in ancient tombs are not afraid of oxidation, and can remain intact even after thousands of years.

But there are two things that are easily destroyed by oxidation.

One of them is textiles. Under the catalysis of oxidation, those precious silk fabrics will turn into ashes in just a few minutes, leaving no chance for archaeological experts to regret.

Once upon a time, the tomb of Emperor Wanli was dug up. Due to experience and imperfect protection measures, many of the precious silk fabrics inside immediately turned black and oxidized, and eventually became incompetent.

This is a painful lesson.

In ancient tombs, another thing that is easily damaged by oxidation is the murals.

These murals were painted on the walls of ancient tombs and remained in their original state after the tomb was sealed due to the isolation of air. But once the ancient tomb is opened, with the influx of fresh air, under the action of oxidation, these precious murals will instantly turn black until they are unclear.

This noble tomb from the Nanyue King period is filled with air. Although they have been desperately conducting rescue excavations, under normal circumstances, the murals in this noble tomb should have oxidized long ago.

Why hasn’t it been oxidized?

Professor Ning felt strange, but the words that came out of his mouth were, “Protect the murals.”

“Professor, we have already done it! But…” The male student stopped talking, paused, and said, “You’d better come over and take a look.”

“The content of this mural is a bit weird.”

Upon hearing this, Professor Ning was filled with curiosity. He looked at the male student, who pointed to somewhere in the tomb.

Professor Ning looked in the direction of his finger and saw that the life of the tomb owner was indeed painted on the wall of the cave pointed by the male student.

From the mural, Professor Ning could easily tell that it was about the daily life and achievements of a high-status noble during the period of the King of Nanyue more than 2,000 years ago.

The front one is pretty normal.

But there were several murals at the back that made Professor Ning frown.

The eleventh mural depicts the elderly owner of the tomb, kneeling in front of a mysterious figure who stands above the clouds, his body seems to be burning with flames, and his face cannot be seen clearly, with a look of horror on his face.

The twelfth mural is very abstract, and even Professor Ning cannot clearly see what the mural is trying to express.

Professor Ning frowned and turned his attention to the thirteenth mural.

The thirteenth mural is much clearer. It shows that the owner of the tomb paid a great price to get something from the hand of the burning man above the clouds. The tomb owner was overjoyed.

The fourteenth and fifteenth murals depict the owner of the tomb arching up the crystal-like thing and circling it day and night, with his expression changing from joy to disappointment.

In the sixteenth mural, the owner of the tomb has changed from a strong middle-aged man to an old man on the verge of death, but the crystal has not changed. The owner of the tomb has a face full of despair.

In the seventeenth mural, the burning man above the clouds was disappointed with the tomb owner and left him.

In the eighteenth mural, the owner of the tomb is facing death. He builds a tomb, holds the spar in his hand, and is buried together.

At this point, the content of the mural ends.

Professor Ning raised his eyebrows. Out of intuition, he felt that the crystal was not simple, so he immediately asked, “Where is the burial object of the tomb owner?”

“Zhou Ming was dealing with it before he got sick,” the male classmate replied.

When Professor Ning heard this, he glanced at Zhou Ming first, frowned, and asked, “Has the ambulance arrived?”

“It’s almost there! They called and said it’s almost there.” The male classmate glanced at the classmate next to him, who immediately replied.

“Yes!” Professor Ning nodded, and then asked, “Where is the funerary object that Zhou Ming handled?”

“Here…hey, why is it missing?” Only then did the male classmate realize that the fiery red, very conspicuous crystal was missing.

“Where did Zhou Ming possibly get him?” The male classmate suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, thought for a moment, and said.

He shouted to other students in the archaeological team, “Look for it!”

There are quite a lot of students.

But they searched carefully and found nothing.

A female classmate said, “Will Zhou Ming take it in his hand?”

When everyone heard this, they thought about this possibility, and their eyes unconsciously looked at Zhou Ming and his hands.

His hands were open and there was no crystal.

Everyone looked at Zhou Ming’s other places.

That’s when.

Zhou Ming suddenly burst into red-gold flames.

The temperature of the flame was so high that the soil on the floor of the tomb was burned into colored glaze.

The heat hit me.

Everyone in the archaeological team was frightened.

“ah……”

“ah……”

“Firefighting…”

“water!”

“Save Zhou Ming!”

The entire tomb was in chaos.

At this moment, the flames on Zhou Ming’s body suddenly disappeared.

The heat that could have cooked the tomb disappeared in an instant.

Only the heat-losing glass on the ground proved that they were not delusional just now.

Zhou Ming, who was surrounded by red-gold flames, was not only unscathed, but his skin became much whiter.

Between his brows, a complex crest appeared, like a beating flame, and like a man standing upright.

Zhou Ming’s mouth opened slightly, as if he was saying something.

The members of the archaeological team in the tomb had just calmed down from the chaos. Their eyes were complicated, with a hint of fear of the unknown, as they looked at Zhou Ming lying on the glass.

The male classmate just now was more courageous. He mustered up the courage to squat next to Zhou Ming, leaned in and heard a word Zhou Ming said repeatedly.

He stood up with complicated eyes.

“What did he say?” Professor Ning was the first to ask.

“He said, witch!” the male classmate said, frowning deeply.

“Witch?” Professor Ning also frowned deeply.

He realized that this time the tomb was not simple anymore!
