Double-headed Snake?

Such mutated snakes are extremely rare. Why would it appear here?

The Xiang family member who was bitten has already fallen to the ground, convulsing.

In just the blink of an eye, his face has turned bluish-black, and his lips are terrifyingly dark!

This poison is so potent?

Yang Chen looked at the double-headed snake, but the species is indeed the common grass snake, which is not poisonous at all.

"Was it this snake that bit him?" Yang Chen asked a nearby Xiang family member who was closest to the bitten person.

The person shook his head, "No! It wasn't this snake. We saw this snake, slashed it, but then a white snake suddenly rushed out, bit him, and ran away!"

"White snake?" Yang Chen frowned.

"Yes! A white snake, as white as snow, almost like it was made of jade, shimmering and reflective, very fast, it vanished into the grass in an instant!" The person described in detail.

At this moment, Xiang Xingyu and Xiang Jixian walked over.

The person on the ground has already stopped breathing.

Yang Chen couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.

This poison is too powerful!

From injury to death in less than two minutes.

The toxicity is comparable to sodium cyanide!

Xiang Xingyu and Xiang Jixian witnessed this scene, merely stunned, but did not show much sorrow.

They followed routine inquiries, and the person answered the same as he did to Yang Chen.

"White snake?" Xiang Jixian frowned, thought for a while, and said, "A white snake is usually one suffering from albinism, but no snake species with such toxicity could be compared. Could it be a Qiu Chi?"

"Qiu Chi?" Yang Chen looked at Xiang Jixian with some confusion.

Xiang Jixian explained, "Qiu Chi is a legendary white snake with numerous legends about it. Some say Qiu Chi is a white snake that has cultivated into a spirit, extremely venomous, and fatal with a bite! According to their description, it is likely a Qiu Chi!"

Yang Chen frowned slightly, pondering silently.

Xiang Xingyu ordered the body to be placed in a sleeping bag and treated the surroundings with chemicals to prevent animals and beasts from damaging the corpse before continuing forward.

After this incident, everyone was extra cautious.

By the time they reached the mountain top, it was around half-past six.

The mountain darkens quicker; everyone switched on their lights, illuminating the surroundings.

Arriving at the edge of the mountaintop hollow, looking down is a bottomless cave; its precise depth is unclear.

Xiang Xingyu and the team brought an unmanned drone, using its camera to explore downward, descending over two hundred meters without reaching the bottom.

"Over two hundred meters!" Xiang Xingyu exclaimed: "Has no one ever discovered this cave before?"

After all, many are fond of adventure, especially deep caves like this, which most attract explorers.

Just then.

Click!

The drone suddenly lost control, crashing to the ground.

"Reached the bottom?" Xiang Xingyu looked puzzled.

Standing aside, Yang Chen was silent, his expression dark.

He heard clearly; it wasn't the sound of reaching the bottom but something knocking it down!

Xiang Xingyu stood up and said: "Looks like the entrance isn't here. Even if it is, descending will be quite challenging. Nancheng, it's up to you!"

Acupointing Hand Xiang Nancheng quickly picked up a compass, targeted the stars on the horizon, murmuring and observing the surroundings, calculating with his fingers.

Meng Po leaned beside Yang Chen, whispered: "Master, is The Book of Changes from Flame Country really so miraculous? Can it determine the entrance solely based on the stars and that object?"

Actually, Yang Chen was unsure, but in front of a foreigner, he had to reflect the profoundness of Flame Country's culture.

So, Yang Chen pretended and said: "It's hard to say, Flame Country's culture is vast and profound, with millennia of heritage. The existence of this thing is meaningful, and historically, emperors and generals greatly believed in these."

Xiang Nancheng was rather efficient; before Yang Chen spoke, he shouted: "Found it!"

He pointed at a star on the horizon, saying: "Purple qi from the east, southern wind influx, northern qi passes easily, western waters enrich, the entrance is definitely this way!"

With that, Xiang Nancheng walked towards the east.

Everyone hurried to follow.

Xiang Xingyu searched with the compass, pointed at a location, and said: "Around here! Qianming, you're up!"

Tomb structure expert Xiang Qianming immediately walked over, removed the backpack, pulled out a Luoyang shovel, kicked away stones underfoot, and stabbed it hard into the ground.

Sparks flew; the shovel penetrated three inches into the soil!

Then, Xiang Qianming hammered away, connecting tube after tube, driving more than ten tubes into the ground.

With a clang, seeming like the sound of striking air.

Xiang Qianming stopped and shouted: "Lift!"

A few people immediately rushed to help pull out the driven tubes one by one.

Geology expert Xiang Feiyu also came over to study the soil with Xiang Qianming.

After a while, Xiang Qianming nodded to Xiang Xingyu, beckoned for several people, and began excavating.

Yang Chen marveled, asked Zhang Shaoting: "Is it determined?"

Zhang Shaoting nodded slightly, whispered: "That's a Luoyang shovel. They're professionals who can discern many things from soil composition, even determining underground tomb's age!"

Yang Chen was slightly surprised; he only heard of this, but never saw it; this profession appears to have numerous intricacies.

After determining the position, several people began digging.

Half an hour later, a shout came from below, "Found it!"

People below handed up a few pieces of tile to Xiang Xingyu.

Xiang Xingyu glanced at them, nodded, handed them to Xiang Jixian: "No doubt, they're Qin Dynasty artifacts!"

Then Xiang family members handed the tiles to Zhang Shaoting and Zhang Qicheng.

Yang Chen didn't look because he lacked interest or understanding of these things.

"Open the window!" Xiang Xingyu ordered.

"Wait!" Zhang Shaoting stopped them: "Weren't there already a team that preceded us to the mountain and entered the tomb? Why didn't we see their robbing holes?"

Xiang Xingyu frowned at these words, looking at Xiang Jixian.

Xiang Jixian pondered for a moment, said solemnly: "Leave a few people to monitor above; the rest enter the tomb. They should still be down there!"

Yang Chen and others didn't object to this decision, nor fully agreed, as they had few members and couldn't leave anyone upstairs.

So, if anyone stayed, it had to be the Xiang family members!

Xiang Xingyu didn't mind much, directly left five people here, and others followed down the tomb.

Inside, Yang Chen inwardly sneered, knowing why Xiang Xingyu didn't care much—for they had another team stationed outside, ensuring no escape once they emerged!

For them, leaving five more outsiders here made no difference.

Immediately, they opened the robbing hole, secured ropes, lowered a fat goose.

After confirming the goose was fine, people began descending into the tomb.

Yang Chen glanced at everyone, feeling emotional; this was his first time entering a tomb!
