Chapter 222: Chapter 172 How is it exactly the same as described in the novel? (5000-word chapter)_3



He used a sound wave detector, which utilized sound waves to penetrate the ground.

Different sound wave patterns represented different materials.

The pattern of sound waves traveling through air was entirely different from that of sound waves moving through soil.

This was the convenience of using modern archaeological instruments.

Old Yao and Professor Qi looked at each other.

A hint of pride and arrogance appeared on Professor Qi's face, accompanied by a smile.

Old Yao, on the other hand, was delighted: "Keep probing, keep probing, cover a larger area."

Immediately, several other members of the archaeological team took up their detection equipment and expanded the probing range.

It didn't take long.

The archaeological team had completed the detection.

"Captain Yao, preliminary detection indicates that about fifteen meters below, there is a relatively spacious burial chamber, sealed, without any water layer."

A smile immediately appeared on Captain Yao's face, joyfully he said, "Well done!"

Dragon Head, burial chamber.

All the elements were present.

It seemed that this archaeological mission was going to be much easier.

"Captain Yao, shall we open the tomb now?" Professor Qi also seemed pleased.

Before coming, they had already notified the local Cultural Relics Bureau and could commence the tomb opening at any time.

Using satellite phones, they could summon local police and Cultural Relics Bureau staff for assistance.

"Open..."

Old Yao was about to speak.

But unexpectedly, a voice interrupted him: "Captain Yao, we can't open it."

The speaker was Qin Sisi.

Old Yao, Professor Qi, and the others all turned their heads to look at Qin Sisi.

"What's the matter, Qin?" Old Yao's brow furrowed slightly, his face showing a puzzled expression.

"This may not be the Great Tomb we're looking for," Qin Sisi swallowed and said solemnly.

"Not the main tomb we are looking for?" Old Yao's brows locked together even tighter, his face was more puzzled.

At this moment.

Professor Qi couldn't help but question, "Miss Qin, this place is precisely what is referred to as the Dragon Head in Feng Shui studies; a tomb located at the Dragon Head must surely belong to a dignitary from ancient times. Moreover, the staff have used the sound wave detector to locate the presence of a burial chamber, how could it not be the Great Tomb we are looking for?"

The crowd agreed with him.

Qin Sisi pursed her lips.

In fact, she was conflicted inside.

On one hand, Lin Chuan's novel was clearly stated to be pure fiction, and Lin Chuan himself said it was a fantasy novel.

On the other hand, a burial chamber had indeed been detected right now.

Which side should she believe?

And yet, for some reason, a voice deep inside Qin Sisi told her to —— temporarily believe Lin Chuan.

Yes, temporarily.

Besides, if the underground chamber was indeed a false tomb laden with traps, as Lin Chuan described, rashly opening it could cause harm to the archaeological team.

That was something they needed to avoid at all costs.

"Professor Qi, Captain Yao, I suspect that this place could very well be a false tomb designed by the tomb's owner specifically for tomb raiders, filled with traps," Qin Sisi stated, following Lin Chuan's narrative.

"A false tomb?"

Everyone was momentarily startled.

"Yes, based on our hypothesis, the status of this tomb's owner was noble, so when designing this tomb, they would have certainly considered the possibility of tomb robbers visiting in the future. Therefore, the designer used the Dragon-Seeking and Positioning method to create this fake tomb, with the intention to ensnare tomb raiders," Qin Sisi said earnestly.

Old Yao's brow furrowed as he fell into brief contemplation.

Professor Qi then asked, "Miss Qin, your point does make some sense, but this is a naturally auspicious Feng Shui site. If this is a false tomb, then where is the real tomb?"

As for the statement from this young lady who had just joined the archaeological team, Old Yao thought for a while before asking, "Qin, where did you get this information from?"

Qin Sisi showed a hesitant expression: "Lin Chuan has mentioned similar cases."

She had intended to say that this content was described in Lin Chuan's novels, but she swallowed those words back.

She had two lines of thought.

First, no one would believe descriptions from a novel to reflect reality.

If it were said to be from a novel, no one would believe it.

Secondly, deep down, Qin Sisi harbored a terrifying suspicion.

—— Lin Chuan had been here before.

But without confirmation, she was reluctant to make a judgment.

Hence, she said it was similar to cases Lin Chuan had talked about.

Of course.

Also, for safety's sake, it wouldn't be too late to open this tomb after finding the main tomb and taking proper safety measures.

Having Lin Chuan as a reference, even the team leader Old Yao had to take her seriously.

"Lin Chuan has said..."

After some thought, Old Yao asked, "Then where do you think the real burial chamber is?"

Qin Sisi pursed her lips, glanced at Old Yao, Professor Qi and the others, and pointed: "There."

The group looked in the direction Qin Sisi was pointing.

It was the Gourd Mouth.

A waterfall more than ten meters high cascaded down, forming a Little Stone Pond below, but that was the end of the path.

"Miss Qin, there's no way through there," Professor Qi couldn't help but remark.

Qin Sisi shook her head: "That's the False Dragon Head. When I was detecting near the Gourd Mouth earlier, I found that there is more than meets the eye; there should be another path going forward."

Old Yao's expression flickered, and he immediately took two people with him, equipped them, and headed towards the Gourd Mouth.

They moved quickly.

Soon, they arrived at the Little Stone Pond.

After some exploration.

Old Yao called out, "Come over here, go around this Little Stone Pond, through the Gourd Mouth, and there's another world!"

Everyone was astounded.

Professor Qi's face was filled with surprise, and then he looked deeply at Qin Sisi, saying absently, "Young lady, you are quite something."

Qin Sisi pursed her lips, ripples of emotion stirring in her heart.

There really was another world!

Phew —

How come this place is exactly like the one described in Lin Chuan's novel?
