People in Zong Tomb, Jieling Pirates

Chapter 347 Half corpse

Miraculously, the moment the tumor was picked out, the bloodshot eyes that covered Wang Kaixuan's eyes began to fade at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In just a blink of an eye, most of the madness disappeared, and little bits of clarity gradually took over.

"Huhuhu..."

When the bloodshot eyes completely disappeared, Wang Kaixuan gasped suddenly and violently like a drowning person, and his burly body sitting on the ground collapsed.

"Fat man, are you okay?" Upon seeing this, Hu Bayi quickly helped him up and asked with concern.

"No...it's okay, just let me take it easy." Wang Kaixuan breathed heavily.

Seeing Wang Kaixuan's reaction, Chen Ziyan knew that he had just lost control of his body, and his consciousness should have been awake throughout the process.

The fact was not beyond his expectation. After he recovered, the fat man immediately spat in the side and said with disgust: "The smell of the black donkey's hooves is really weird!"

Seeing this, Hu Ba knew that he was fine, so he said angrily: "I still don't like this or that. Just be satisfied if it works for you. I would like to get a five-flavored one, but will it work?"

Although Wang Kaixuan was barely a blessing in disguise this time, in the final analysis, it was still his fault. If he had been more cautious, such a thing would never have happened.

Wang Kaixuan himself understood this, and said sarcastically: "Hey, didn't I fall into that old witch's trap? There's a word for it, it's a crime other than war!"

Knowing that the fat man was tough on the young man, Hu Bayi didn't bother to say anything more. He believed that next time something like this happened again, this guy would still be unable to control his own hands.

"Master Chen, should we pick a coffin and open it now?" After confirming that Wang Kaixuan was fine, Hu Bayi turned to ask Chen Ziyan.

The issue of Wang Kaixuan can be brought to an end for the time being. It is not difficult to guess how he was tricked, so there is no need to discuss it too much. The subsequent Yin and Yang tattoos will have to be discussed later, and there is no need to talk about it here.

So Hu Bayi returned his attention to what was in front of him, and he felt that if he wanted to learn more about this place, and even find the location of King Xian's coffin, it would be a good choice to check each one one by one.

Although this method is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inevitably dangerous, it is already the most appropriate method currently in front of us.

When Wang Kaixuan heard this, he immediately said first: "I think that cellar coffin is quite suspicious. Let's do surgery on it first!"

Just as Chen Ziyan guessed, although this guy looked confused along the way, his consciousness was not hindered at all, so he was very clear about what he encountered along the way.

When I heard Hu Bayi say that he wanted to open the coffin for verification, he immediately thought of the valuable Taizi coffin.

If it weren't for the curse, Wang Kaixuan would have just wanted to go back home if he had to find the Muchen Bead.

The three coffins here, the mezzanine outside, and the funerary objects in the cave. Added up, they not only made a lot of money, they became rich overnight in any sense, and they could eat and drink comfortably for the rest of their lives.

die.

Chen Ziyan ignored Wang Kaixuan's words. After hearing Hu Bayi's words, he glanced at the top of the tomb above without leaving any trace.

With the plug-in, he knew exactly how to go next, but now he was a little hesitant about whether to go up like this.

Although this tomb was the same as in his memory, with three coffins made of different materials, the number and position of the longevity candles had changed, so he was not sure whether leaving like this would hinder their subsequent actions.

.

And the most important thing is, according to their inference based on the giant bull-headed lantern, King Xian can be said to have "entrusted an important task" to this place, which means that the other party is likely to make arrangements here. This arrangement may hide the secret of his intentions.

Information that is important to them.

In view of these reasons, Chen Ziyan was somewhat hesitant.

But neither Chen Ziyan nor the others beside him noticed at this time that the sarcoma that had fallen to the ground with blood had quietly turned into a flying insect.

It stands to reason that after they cut off the tumor from Wang Kaixuan's tongue, they should immediately destroy it completely, but it seemed that there was an inexplicable force guiding it, causing everyone to subconsciously ignore this.

This flying insect transformed from a sarcoma was completely black and about the size of a fingernail. With the help of the darkness of the tomb, it easily reached the top of the bronze coffin.

Then, as if he had some intelligence, he wandered for a moment and hit the copper ring embedded on the top of the tomb.

This insect, which was not as thick as a copper ring, obviously had no ability to break the copper ring, but it exploded the moment it touched the copper ring. The same dark juice directly covered the outside of that part of the copper ring, and then it persisted for several seconds.

The thousand-year-old copper ring was corroded into liquid without any resistance, just like butter encountered by a hot knife.

Tick-tock——

When the liquid mixed with the copper coffin and insect body juice dropped, the restraint that was already on the verge of breaking could no longer hold on. It was like an agreement. After the copper ring broke, the remaining copper rings holding the copper chain were broken.

The ring also broke apart.

Chen Ziyan and the others didn't even realize what happened. The heavy bronze coffin hit the ground hard, but the ground did not stop it. The bronze coffin fell straight down after breaking the ground.

This sudden change attracted everyone's attention. They didn't want to think about anything else and quickly looked over with vigilance.

You must know that just now, there were sounds of grabbing and wrapping in this bronze coffin. Now that something like this happened again, they couldn't help but feel afraid.

Chen Ziyan quickly walked to the hole that had been smashed and shined a flashlight into it, but when he saw the situation inside clearly, his pupils suddenly shrank.

What surprised him was not that there was another layer below, but that at this moment, most of the nine-layer sealing system wrapped around the coffin had been separated, and the ancient Legalist mirror that actually sealed the bronze coffin had also fallen off, and was lying quietly on the bronze coffin.

beside.

At this time, Hu Bayi also came over. He took a look at the situation below and said with some surprise: "These square logs down here... this is a wooden coffin tomb!"

"What is a wooden coffin tomb?" Wang Kaixuan asked puzzledly.

"Wooden coffin tomb is a form of tomb structure. It first appeared in the Shang Dynasty and was popular in the Warring States and Western Han Dynasties. It is like the following, using square wood to build a coffin chamber in the excavated chamber." Hu Bayi said simply.

Explained it to him.

Shirley Yang asked: "According to previous speculation, is this the real coffin containing the king's offering?"

Chen Ziyan said: "We will verify this later. We have to deal with the bronze coffin now!"

As if to respond to him, before he could finish his words, the harsh scratching sound sounded again from the bronze coffin below.

Even this time, through the gap that appeared due to the fall, you could vaguely see some unknown object moving inside.

Hu Bayi's expression suddenly changed: "Then we have to go down quickly. If we wait for the things inside to come out, it will be too late!"

Although it is not yet clear what is sealed in the bronze coffin, it is clear that it is definitely a vicious object without even thinking about it.

Chen Ziyan nodded: "Yes, it must be done as soon as possible."

After that, he jumped directly into the wooden coffin tomb without waiting for anyone else to react.

Although most of the square timbers have been broken by the bronze coffin, it is not difficult to use it to get down.

After seeing Chen Ziyan leaving, Hu Bayi thought for a moment and said, "You guys stay up there for now. I'll go down with Mr. Chen to see the situation."

Because you can see the scenery below, and the space below is indeed relatively narrow, the others nodded in agreement.

When Hu Bayi went down, Chen Ziyan, who had entered first, had already reached the bottom.

The moment he landed, Chen Ziyan picked up the ancient Legalist mirror that had fallen from the bronze coffin and stuffed it back into its rightful place.

But after doing this, he discovered that the groove where the ancient Legalist mirror was placed was missing part of it, so the ancient mirror had to be pressed down, otherwise it would fall off the bronze coffin.

"Mr. Chen, what's going on?" At this time, Hu Bayi also followed. Seeing Chen Ziyan pressing one hand tightly on the bronze coffin, he couldn't help but ask curiously.

"This ancient mirror is the most important safeguard of the bronze coffin. As long as it is inside, nothing can come out. But now the place where the ancient mirror is placed is broken." Chen Ziyan did not hide anything and directly told him the specific situation.

"Is it broken?" Hu Bayi glanced at the ancient mirror in Chen Ziyan's hand, then glanced around on the ground and said: "There are no fallen fragments around here. It seems that I don't know where they went. How about we try

Try to glue this ancient mirror on it?"

Chen Ziyan thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "Forget it, that's just treating the symptoms but not the root cause. If it happens again when we are doing things, it will probably be a trouble. Why don't we get rid of the stuff here now!"

This ancient Legalist mirror had an astonishing origin and extraordinary effectiveness. Chen Ziyan had already regarded it as his own, and just wanted to wait until he left to get it.

When the time comes that there is a corpse cave behind you, whatever is in the bronze coffin will be devoured, saving you the trouble of cleaning it up.

But he didn't expect that things would go round and round and strangely return to the original track again, so after thinking about it, he decided to simply take away the ancient mirror now. Anyway, he couldn't deal with the things inside.

Bang bang bang——

At this moment, the thing in the bronze coffin seemed to be provoking, and kept knocking on the lid of the coffin, apparently trying to break the seal and get out.

Now that the distance is so close, both of them can see through the gap that the wooden coffin inside has two big holes. A pair of skinny and withered arms are waving inside, and the nails that are so long that they are curled are clawing hard around the lid of the coffin.

.

"Solve this thing now?" Hu Bayi hesitated for a moment, then nodded heavily: "Okay!"

Although he did not advocate taking the initiative to provoke the evil spirits in the tomb, but now it seemed that it was inevitable, he might as well take action first.

"Lift the coffin to make a fortune. Let's hang up the stumbling rope and see the true nature of the thing inside!" After saying that, he directly took out two ropes soaked in cinnabar, intending to use them to deal with the things inside.

This cinnabar rope is called a stumbling rope, and it is specially prepared for the zombies in the coffin. The zombie's body cannot bend. As long as this thing is used to block the mouth of the coffin, the zombie cannot lift its arms and legs, and naturally it will not be able to get out.

After handing the cinnabar rope to Chen Ziyan, Hu Bayi took out another candle and seemed to want to follow the rules of gold touching.

But before he could start, he was stopped by Chen Ziyan: "There is no need to light the candle. It is clear that there is something inside, and we are going straight to kill it. It is useless to light the candle."

Hearing Chen Ziyan say this, Hu Bayi also suddenly woke up and smiled bitterly: "I really forgot, we are not just trying to find treasure."

After Hu Ba put away the candles, they each held a cinnabar rope and stood on both sides of the bronze coffin.

"open!"

Without counting, Chen Ziyan said directly after making sure that Hu Bayi was ready.

As he said "open", the two men's hands holding the coffin seam exerted force at the same time, and the heavy coffin cover was immediately pushed forward.

This is because the bronze coffin fell from a height and was already on the verge of opening. In addition, with the help of the thing inside, it would not be so smooth to open it.

During the process of opening the bronze coffin, Chen Ziyan and Hu Bayi focused their attention on the gradually exposed interior of the coffin, especially the area with a pair of arms.

When there was a coffin cover, these arms could only ineffectively grasp the bronzes, but now they could attack them.

If someone is caught accidentally, it will be a bit of trouble. Although they are not afraid, there is no need to be so.

With such a vigilant attitude, most of the heavy bronze coffin cover was pushed open, and soon came to the part corresponding to the upper body.

Chen Ziyan and Hu Bayi glanced at each other, and then the two of them used their strength at the same time to push the coffin cover open in one breath.

The moment the coffin lid fell to the ground, they ignored everything else and immediately intertwined the cinnabar ropes in their hands in an attempt to seal the coffin mouth.

The pair of arms inside that were constantly grasping seemed to have sensed something was wrong, and they violently tore open the wooden coffin lid inside the coffin.

The moment the coffin lid burst, Hu Bayi's expression suddenly changed, and he subconsciously wanted to retreat.

Because he was shocked to find that the thing inside the coffin was actually half a corpse.

You must know that their cinnabar rope was arranged based on the entire corpse, so the gap was slightly wide, but it could not trap half of the corpse.

The corpse in the coffin was obviously aware of this, and it smashed its withered arms downwards, trying to make half of the corpse stand up.

But before his arm touched the coffin board, Chen Ziyan pressed a simple bronze mirror on the guy's forehead. The moment the bronze mirror touched the corpse, all movement disappeared into nothingness.

Hu Bayi didn't know what was going on inside the coffin. How could Chen Ziyan not know? He had been guarding against this. The ancient Legalist mirror he had been holding in his hand had been waiting for the half of the corpse!
