The Medical Guru Chapter 1347 – Are You Really Kylin Zhang?!

Chapter 1347 Are You Really Kylin Zhang?!

“Hey, look, what’s that?”

All the experts and instructors beamed happily when suddenly a student shouted out. His flashlight flashed across the students around them and suddenly stopped at the corner of the passage ahead. Unexpectedly, there was a small pile of yellow soil. There was a cave entrance nearby. It was in the shape of a square with a width of about 70 or 80 centimeters.

Everyone’s eyes were focused on it.

“Rob-robber hole?”

When these experts and instructors saw this, their faces changed significantly. They strode over, even disregarding the fact that those centipedes might be lurking ahead.

Everyone followed closely behind.

As the crowd went near this robber hole, they saw a bluestone wall tile under the pile of yellow soil. Someone must have removed this tile from the wall. There were even a few footprints on the small mound of earth.

“Alas, a group of bastards!”

The archaeological captain felt heartbroken and cursed angrily.

“Er, this… How could anyone find this great tomb? Since there is a hole here, it would mean that the robbers had already gained access. The antiques inside must have been taken away, right?”

An archaeological member asked anxiously.

“Let’s go inside and have a look first.”

Lu Jinzhou suggested.

Without saying a word, the archaeological captain rapidly walked inside.

They walked on and on.

“Ah!”

A scream suddenly echoed through the place.

The expert who strode ahead had slipped. One minute he had been standing on solid ground, but a cracking sound was heard as he began to fall as if he had lost his footing.

Because Fang Qiu was not far away, he raced to the expert, grabbed him, and quickly pulled him out.

This emergency startled everyone.

They trained their lights on the place where the expert had missed his footing.

Good heavens…

What a huge hole!!!

Under the bright beams from the flashlights, everyone could see the bottom of the big pit. There was an iron plate studded with rusty iron spikes that were about 20 to 30 centimeters long.

When everyone saw these iron spikes.

They felt a chill in their hearts.

They were afraid of going ahead.

“This is Flipping-plank Quicksand!”

Everyone looked scared, and Lu Jinzhou quickly explained, “Speaking of the ancient tombs, many people will think of bloody corpses, zombies, endless traps, ancient creatures, and so on. In fact, these things are just figments of imagination. The real ancient tombs had no such mysterious things but many unknown risks. Tomb robbers often die in tombs, and robbing too many tombs can shorten their lives. Such misfortunes happen because of these hidden risks.”

“This Flipping-plank Quicksand is one of the terrible risks.”

With this…

Lu Jinzhou turned around, pointed to the big pit underground, and said to the students, “I know a scene you are all familiar with. A gang of grave robbers cautiously and silently move into a tomb passage. Suddenly, countless arrows shoot over, but there is nowhere to hide and run. Ultimately, all the grave robbers end up being nailed to the ground.”

“But that can’t happen.”

Lu Jinzhou said with a smile, “Whatever kinds of bowstrings will eventually lose their elasticity after thousands of years. If a mechanism has existed for thousands of years, it can never be triggered by the weight of an adult human. The real risks in tombs are flipping boards and quicksand!”

“See this wooden board right before you? It is the so-called flipping plank that can move up and down. You can also view the mechanism as a seesaw 2.5 meters in height, and its board that is balanced on a fixed part in the middle is five meters long. The ancients often put these wooden boards flat and added some yellow soil or even floor tiles above them. Once the grave robbers accidentally stepped on the mechanism, the wooden board would drop and send these people down into the pit.”

“In front of you is a higher-level Flipping-plank Quicksand. You can see that it is composed of three layers of planks. There is a small plank in the middle at the bottom. Above it are two parallel planks. Likewise, two larger planks have been placed together on the top. After the ancients completed several small procedures, the three layers of planks could bear some weight. Afterward, they were fixed in midair. However, these planks can hardly bear any weight. Anything more than 30 kilograms can cause these wooden boards to crack. As a result, the person stepping on the plank would fall into a hole in the ground.”

“These holes in the ground are usually equipped with various metal spikes. When these tomb raiders fall on these pointed spikes, they would be killed instantly!”

Lu Jinzhou spoke knowledgeably.

He paused. Then, he looked toward the end of this tomb path and continued, “Besides, there is quicksand. Without exception, large-scale tombs are usually filled with quicksand. This quicksand is not ordinary sand from rivers but sand from faraway seas. The sea sand is more liquid and does not solidify easily. Some tomb raiders get into tombs by digging the top of the tomb. If grave robbers enter the tomb and break through the layer of quicksand, a large quantity of quicksand will flow in and stifle them!”

“Some vicious tomb owners worried that the quicksand couldn’t kill people quickly. So, they would add large rocks in the quicksand. As the quicksand moved, the rocks would fall and smash these tomb raiders to death!”

“In addition, there are deadly things like poison in corpses and deadly bacteria, but I won’t go into these details now. After all, we are not in a class.”

After that…

Lu Jinzhou quickly turned to check on the expert rescued by Fang Qiu.

At this time…

Several experts around him examined his body with their flashlights to see if he was injured.

There were too many bacteria in the tomb. Once he was hurt, his wound should be disinfected as soon as possible.

They checked him all over.

After they confirmed that he was not injured…

The expert immediately held Fang Qiu’s hand and thanked him sincerely. “Thank you. Thank you so much. Fortunately, you’re here. Otherwise, I would have died here.”

“That’s what I should do.”

Fang Qiu answered.

At this very moment…

All the experts of the provincial archaeological research team looked at Fang Qiu with respect. No one questioned the decision to take Fang Qiu into the tomb.

At least…

…

Fang Qiu was capable and could save them.

They were more than happy to have such an expert to protect them in a dangerous tomb.

“There’s something down there.”

Fang Qiu pointed to the bottom of the pit under several flipping planks. Even as he spoke, he was about to destroy all the boards.

“Wait a minute.”

The archaeological captain immediately spoke up to stop him, “No. Don’t damage them. They are cultural artifacts with great scientific research value.”

As he spoke…

The expert poked his head out to look into the pit.

At first glance, he saw a skeleton in the pit.

“A tomb raider. Obviously.”

The archaeological captain said with great excitement, “I hope all the grave robbers have died here. In this way, they wouldn’t get a chance to destroy this ancient tomb, so we can do scientific research and conservation valuation.”

…

When the others learned that a tomb raider died there…

They breathed a sigh of relief.

“Didn’t you step on the wooden board just now?”

Fang Qiu asked with a puzzled face, looking at the expert who almost fell into the hole.

“I stepped on a corner.”

The expert gave a wry smile and said, “It was too dark, and everyone was looking ahead, so I didn’t pay much attention to my steps either. I didn’t notice this big pit. Nothing was around the hole except for a piece of rotten wood smaller than a shoe. When I stepped on it, the rotten wood couldn’t bear my weight and broke immediately!”

Everyone heard that.

They all felt so fearful and panicky after the accident.

All of them had been too careless.

The previous grave robber had crushed this flipping board, but no one had noticed it. Fortunately, Fang Qiu was there. Otherwise, the expert would have died in vain.

“Everyone, be careful. Don’t focus only on the distance. Please watch your steps at the same time. We mustn’t let anything like this happen again.”

The archaeological captain reminded everyone.

The others nodded in agreement.

But at this moment…

As soon as the expert finished speaking, Fang Qiu suddenly reached out and quickly tapped on several points on the expert’s body.

Everyone was stupefied.

They didn’t know what Fang Qiu was up to.

“There’s corpse poison.”

Under everyone’s puzzled eyes, Fang Qiu explained, “After the grave robber died in the pit, the corpse started to rot and produced corpse poison, which is bacteria. The mechanism was broken, so the bacteria escaped from the pit and spread to the whole tomb. Since the space in this tomb is large, bacteria coming out of it will not cause much harm to us. However, there is a heavy concentration of corpse poison in the pit under the plank. When he accidentally fell, he would scream out of instinct. Afterward, he would gulp in the air. As a result, he inhaled some of the corpse poison in the pit. Thus, I had to detoxify him.”

Everyone heard his words.

They immediately covered their mouths with fear.

Over there…

All the experts and teachers nodded in agreement with Fang Qiu’s explanation.

This was why they checked the expert to see if there were any wounds. They could disinfect external injuries. But if the expert inhaled the poison, they could only deal with it outside the tomb.

“You know how to detoxify a person?”

After listening to Fang Qiu’s words, the archaeological captain looked at Fang Qiu in great surprise and asked.

“Mm.”

Fang Qiu nodded affirmatively.

This time…

Everyone viewed Fang Qiu in a new and even more favorable light.

This master was simply omnipotent!

From his skills, he could be equal to a team of various talents.

Lu Jinzhou was pretty pleased with his wise decision. He felt it had been a great move on his part to include this person in the group!

In the crowd…

Liu Qing, who had been looking for an opportunity to help, was increasingly certain that he was pretty useless in this team. There was little he could do to help.

“Let’s move on.”

The archaeological captain waved his hand and said, “We should be more cautious. We have to go deeper into the tomb to check on the extent of the plundering by tomb robbers. Keep up, everyone.”

After that…

He led everyone into the depths of the tomb.

Then…

A student suddenly stepped out of his group. He quietly appeared at Fang Qiu’s side and asked in a low voice, “Master, which family of the Mystic Nine are you from?”

“Eh?”

Fang Qiu was puzzled.

“Hee-hee, you’re so powerful. You know how to detoxify and drive off insects. You must be from a tomb-raiding family. Are you from the Zhang family?”

As he spoke, the student became increasingly excited. “Kylin Zhang? Are you really Kylin Zhang? Oh! Please tell me: what is the ultimate secret behind the bronze door?”
