Tomb Raider: Starting from the Valley of Insects, integrating Golden Silkworm Gu

Chapter 59 Jade Embryo in a Ceramic Jar
"Not always!"

"What? Commissioner Shi, can you still conjure one for me?" The fat man lost his golden mask, and he has been brooding all the time, and his words are always full of gunpowder.

"Yes, I will change it for you now."

As soon as the words fell, he held the gold-plated dragon and tiger scepter in both hands, put his thumb in the middle, and pressed lightly.

There was just a "click" sound, and the dragon heads and tiger heads on both sides popped out.

"Ah, this can actually change!"

The fat man looked curious as he watched Shi Lei split the scepter into two halves.

In fact, this little design was just discovered by Shi Lei, and he had been playing with it before, but he really didn't notice it.

"Since it's ready, let's not wait any longer." Lao Hu pulled Shi Lei to the side of the bronze box.

Nodding his head, he inserted the faucet in.

I was still hesitating whether to insert it together, but as soon as the faucet went in, black water suddenly sprayed out from the other side.

"Look, how this is sprayed into the water."

The fat man quickly backed away to avoid being splashed with water.

"Don't move." Seeing this, Shi Lei pulled out the dragon head and walked over with the tiger head.

Without saying a word, he inserted the tiger's head directly.

I saw black water spraying from the dragon head, but it was different from before. After the tiger head was pulled out, the whole bronze box shook.

Especially its cover, as if something pushed it from the inside, and the whole cover protruded outward.

"I'll go, there won't be anything in here!"

The fat man was startled, frowning and staring at the cover, did he glance at Shi Lei.

"If there is anything, wouldn't you know if you open it and take a look?"

With that said, Shi Lei took the military shovel and scratched along the crack, spreading the dirt and rust from the crack.

"It looks like this is not a coffin, but a box." Shirley Yang deduced.

The answer was a nod, and several people gathered around the bronze box without blinking an eye.

"Fatty, old Hu, work harder and lift it up all at once."

"Do not worry!"

The bronze box was very heavy, and several people used the rope of Flying Tiger Claw and the principle of leverage to lift the lid up.

The lid was opened, and the dusty dust was driven out and swirled in the air.

He reached out to sweep the dust away, coughed twice, turned on the searchlight above his head and walked over.

"Xiao Shi, be careful!" Shirley Yang was always cautious and had already put on the gas mask.

Seeing her like this, Shi Lei smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, there is no poison here."

After finishing speaking, he took the lead in stepping on the raised part of the bronze box, leaning half of his body down.

"Commissioner Shi, do you have anything good?"

The fat man asked, but did not answer.

He couldn't wait any longer, and imitated Shi Lei's way of looking inside.

Just glanced at it, and haven't had time to see what's inside.

A light flashed into his eyes, it was Shi Lei.

"Fatty, be careful."

After finishing speaking, he retracted the flashlight and continued to observe the inside.

This is a huge bronze box with three compartments inside.

The first grid is a ceramic jar, which is wrapped with a shell made of high-quality fine jade, which seems to be tailor-made.

"This jar looks old and is wrapped in jade. If you get it from Panjiayuan, it probably won't be lower than the price of the golden mask."

At this moment, the fat man was only thinking about selling money, and he had already forgotten Shi Lei's advice.

He was about to pick up the ceramic jar when he reached out, but the moment he touched it.

The jade shell suddenly shattered, like a thin cicada wing being torn apart in the rainstorm, and scattered everywhere.

This scene happened to be seen by Lao Hu and Shirley Yang who had just come up, and without saying a word, they pulled Fatty by his collar and pulled him out.

"Slow down! My neck is about to be strangled to death by you."

"You still want us to slow down, why are you stretching your claws so fast!"

As Old Hu was talking, he wanted to reach out and give him a slap.

When Shi Lei heard the movement, he hurried down, "Okay, Lao Hu, it's just that the outside of the ceramic jar is broken, but the inside is still intact."

"Commissioner Shi, at this time, you should stop protecting him."

"No, I'm also responsible for this matter. I didn't tell you well in advance."

When it comes to this matter, if Hu Bayi is reluctant to give up, it will appear that he is inhumane.

"Okay, for your sake this time, I don't care about it. But, fat man, you have to pay attention to me next time. It's not a big deal if you break something. If you encounter an organ, the few of us Everything has to be explained here!"

The fat man nodded lazily, rarely speaking back.

The farce subsided, and several people returned to the topic.

Grab the flashlight and start studying the ceramic jar.

"This thing should be earlier than the time of King Xian. I read it in a history book. These three things are the artifacts of the barbarians in Zhelong Mountain."

"However, after King Xian took over this place, in order to rule them, he took these three artifacts as his own and sacrificed them all to Huo's undead insects."

Shi Lei extracted these from the original plot. In order not to make the three of them suspicious, he had to say that they were from history books.

Several people listened intently and did not ask any further questions.

After a while, Shirley Yang said, "Fatty, take out the pot, it won't be clear."

"Uh...Come on, I'm afraid I'll break it."

"I come."

After pinning the flashlight to his waist, he reached out and took out the ceramic jar.

"This kind of thing is rare. I haven't seen this type in Panjiayuan for so long." The fat man smashed his mouth, looking at the ceramic pot as if he was looking at a boiled duck.

"Nonsense, no matter how you look at this thing, it's something from the late period of the new era. If you sell it outside, it won't be enough to keep you in jail."

Hearing this, the fat man grinned, feeling very grateful.

"Indeed, but this should not be from the late New Era, it seems to be almost in the late Shang Dynasty."

After looking at the ceramic jar for a few times, Shi Lei actually didn't understand it, but the year of this ceramic was mentioned in the original book, so he wrote it down.

He remembered that there should be something else in it, and he held it upside down with both hands. As expected, there was the sound of water and the weight was heavy.

He put it on the ground and signaled the three of them to come over. He picked up the flashlight and shone inside.

"Oh my god!" Fatty exclaimed and almost fell to the ground, "There is... why is there a child in here!"

The ceramic jar is not big, but very deep.

Inside was a newly formed child, which looked extremely pale under the light of the flashlight.

The lower part of the ceramic jar is clear water, soaking the lower body of the fetus.

His upper body was outside the clear water, and his facial features were clear.However, the lower body is indeed made of jade, not the flesh body.

Shi Lei thought for a while, then said silently: "It looks like this should be a jade fetus."
