Chapter 221: Chapter 172 How is it exactly the same as described in the novel? (5000-word chapter)_2

“Check the tools, drugs, and instruments!”

“Be careful of the wildlife in the deep mountains, and don’t recklessly provoke any ferocious animals.”

“Keep up with the team, and don’t fall behind!”

“Follow me!”

Old Yao put on a wide-brimmed straw hat that hung low, shielding most of the sunlight, wore cargo pants, and carried a backpack filled with tools, instruments, and drugs necessary for archaeology.

In his hand, he held a map.

It was a reproduction of an incomplete ancient map discovered by historians while sorting through ancient texts, recording the tomb of a lord from the State of Lu during the Warring States period.

However, the years had taken their toll.

The Archaeological Team Nine had carefully compared it with modern maps and marked out a large area.

Now, they were heading to that area.

“Qin, it’s your first mission since you joined our Team Nine. Follow closely behind me and don’t get lost,” Old Yao advised.

He was somewhat protective of this archaeologist from Anling in his heart.

The future was promising.

As for now, well.

Although she had listened to a whole lot of Lin Chuan’s theories and read Lin Chuan’s novels, theory and reality were far apart.

It was like the teacher teaching quadratic equations in class, and the exam turning out to be on advanced functions.

So.

Qin needed more practice!

“Okay.”

Qin Sisi nodded seriously. She was clad in a long-sleeved grey shirt with cargo pants and a pair of mountaineering boots, sporting a very competent look with her backpack.

The archaeological team trudged through water and climbed over mountains.

Moving towards their destination.

It wasn’t until around three in the afternoon that they finally arrived.

At that moment.

The group stood on the high ground to rest and to observe the terrain.

Professor Qi was, of course, the key person for observing the terrain.

Professor Qi held his palm above his eyes to shield the slanting sun and looked around.

The central area appeared flat, its surrounding mountains rising and falling like the backbone of a ferocious beast.

In the distance, five mountain ranges overlapped, hidden in the mist of clouds, like a giant dragon lying down, majestic and vast.

“I think this place looks like the Dragon Head!” Professor Qi stated after watching intently for a while and turned to Captain Yao.

Captain Yao’s eyebrows lifted slightly, revealing a hint of joy, “Dragon Head?”

Professor Qi nodded and said, “Yes, I know a bit about Feng Shui. If there is a tomb in this area, then this is undoubtedly the best location.”

Old Yao’s heart stirred, and he immediately called over the personnel responsible for detection to start using modern instruments.

At that time.

Qin Sisi was lost in thought.

She looked at the distant fivefold mountain ranges, then at the gourd-shaped terrain here, and at the ten-meter waterfall plummeting at Gourd Mouth.

Hiss—
