It was because he knew this that Ye Lan did not expose her immediately.
And from observation, it was found that Hong Qing only stayed with He Zheng and put the love poison on him alone, and had no intention of harming anyone else.
The person who pushed Yin Ruijin and Sheng Nan onto the hillside probably just wanted to help the giant snake.
There is nothing bad about one's nature.
The other people in the team kept their distance from Hong Qing, and some of them gradually realized where she came from.
"What did you say? She's the Red Devil? The Miao Saint, that does make her look like one."
"It's actually the Red Devil! Hey, luckily he didn't attack us at the gate, otherwise we would have been dead!"
…
The discussions around them were all heard by the people here.
Shouhou and others subconsciously stayed away from Hongqing.
Hong Qing sneered softly, her eyes full of charm, "You are so smart that you can recognize me. It was Ye Lan who saved your lives just now."
Otherwise, the moment they pull the trigger, the bugs underground will take their lives.
After hearing this, everyone became even more wary of her.
Xie Chenan didn't understand the situation and touched his brother Electric Eel's arm. "Who is this woman?"
"Red Devil, the fifth-ranked boss on the X Forum's comprehensive rankings." Electric Eel rubbed the goosebumps from his arms and similarly avoided Red Love behind him, staying as far away as possible. "Legend has it that this person was chosen at birth to become the Holy Maiden of the Miao Borderland. She was raised in the flesh and blood of her biological parents, brothers and sisters from all five tribes, and only one in ten thousand can grow up to be one. Every hair on her body is highly poisonous. A single drop of her blood can kill all the plants and animals within a ten-mile radius. She's a walking deadly weapon."
In other words, if you dare to attack her, you will be the first to die.
Originally everyone was planning to go their own way, but now that the Red Devil had appeared and teamed up with the powerful Ye Lan, no matter how reluctant the others were, they could only stand obediently at the back when they arrived at the edge of the pit.
"There are indeed dry thief holes here. They must have been dug by the previous team."
Yin Ruijin walked forward and touched the newly turned soil and the mucus on the ground, confirming that this was the first place where the giant snake appeared.
At that time, it swept the valley before returning to the cave and attacking Ye Lan and the others at the end of the valley.
After checking with instruments, it was found that there was still enough oxygen below, but no one dared to go down immediately.
"Miss Ye, do you think there will be another giant snake down there?"
Yin Ruijin represents the forum and is currently in a cooperative relationship with Ye Lan, who is directly appointed by the official, so his attitude is very polite.
Hearing this, Ye Lan looked at Hong Qing.
Hong Qing raised her chin and said proudly, "The poison I've planted can kill even a ten-thousand-year-old turtle. It won't have a chance of survival."
Ye Lan believed her on this point.
After ensuring it was safe below, everyone went down through the tunnel.
The entrance was very deep, and there was an arrow array underneath. There were more than a dozen corpses lying in a mess. Some of them were bitten to death by giant snakes, while others fell down and were pierced by thousands of arrows.
"Senior Sister, except for the smugglers who infiltrated our team, everyone else died here." Wu Heng walked over and whispered his observations.
Ye Lan nodded slightly but didn't say anything.
Now that everyone is dead, the clues in the Zheng family national treasure case are gone.
The only good thing is that you don't have to worry about these people causing trouble anymore.
The group walked towards the corridor in front. Although the carved murals on both sides were slightly oxidized, they were still colorful.
"Murals like these usually depict the life of the tomb owner. You can see traces of a sacrifice here. In the center is the great wizard, surrounded by common people. The person sitting in the chair at the back is probably the tomb owner."
The surviving archaeologists' voices, unable to suppress their excitement, echoed in the passage.
As he explained, everyone gradually understood the records on the murals.
This seems to be a very ancient tomb, with many sacrificial scenes, including wind, rain, thunder and lightning. Any weather can be achieved through the sacrifices of the great wizard, and the king's treasures on the chair are gathering more and more at his feet.
However, as the requests for blessings became more demanding, the required sacrifices began to change from cattle and sheep to human beings.
"This is... human sacrifice."
As the archaeologist continued to explain, his voice became weaker and weaker, and he began to tremble slightly.
Because the second half of the mural is almost entirely about human sacrifices, the number increases from a small number to a small number, and finally the sacrificial tripod is expanded to become a pot, and people are thrown into the pot one by one and cooked into soup.
The tomb owner sitting on the chair behind was holding a bowl and enjoying his meal.
When everyone thought about what he was drinking, their stomachs churned and they wanted to vomit.
But the story doesn't end here. In the mural, the high priest also caught a giant snake, but unfortunately the second half of the mural disappeared.
"The painter may have concealed crucial information, or perhaps this secret is forbidden from being depicted." The archaeologist, sweating profusely, reached this point. "I think this tomb is most likely from an ancient Stone Age burial complex. They openly practiced human sacrifice and believed in the most primitive religion, cultivating things beyond our imagination. I don't recommend going any further. Perhaps leaving is our best option."
As excited as he was when he came down, he regretted it now.
"If you want to leave, go by yourself, you four-eyed frog. Don't stop us from making money." The money-obsessed lunatics were unwilling to listen to him. They pushed him back and indicated that they wanted to go back and do as they pleased. They wanted to explore here, and even bringing back a stone would make them rich.
The archaeological expert shook his head, gave up the fight, and turned back to the cave entrance he came from.
But after a while, Ye Lan and others heard his exclamation.
