People in Zong Tomb, Jieling Pirates

Chapter 43 The boy buried with him

It would be a lie to say that I am not interested in this coffin.

But Chen Ziyan also needs to consider whether the coffin is worth his efforts to get it back.

Just as he was thinking, Wang Kaixuan next to him had already stretched out his hand, trying to push the coffin lid open.

Seeing this, Chen Ziyan quickly stopped him: "Move gently, let's lift the coffin lid aside."

Although he hadn't thought about it yet, no matter what, he couldn't let Wang Kaixuan damage the coffin lid, otherwise he wouldn't have to think about it.

After all, the overall integrity of the coffin is the key; if it is damaged, it will have no value.

Wang Kaixuan was stunned for a moment, but then he understood the meaning behind Chen Ziyan's words and quickly calmed down his movements.

In fact, after the initial excitement, he also thought of the key points, so he was not as enthusiastic about the two golden nanmu coffins at the beginning.

After all, if you want to take it away, you have to cut it into sections of wood, so it doesn't matter whether it is damaged or not.

In view of this, Wang Kaixuan also maintained this attitude when treating the coffin in front of him.

Anyway, if it's good or bad, you can't take away all of them, so if it's bad, it's bad.

But now Chen Ziyan's words gave him a wake-up call.

It is true that he cannot transport these coffins back to Sijiu City, but that does not mean that Chen Ziyan is also helpless.

Although Chen Ziyan's family background is unclear, based on what he has seen and heard along the way, he can guess that this Mr. Chen must be an energetic master.

If he handles this matter, there should be no problem.

Hu Bayi also thought of this and looked at Chen Ziyan in surprise: "Mr. Chen, what do you think?"

"This matter is just an idea for the time being. We need to communicate with the outside world. However, it is better to keep this coffin properly for now, so as to avoid things being gone when things are done."

Chen Ziyan did not give an accurate answer.

He doesn't know now whether the arrangements he made when leaving Beijing were successful.

If everything goes well, then he can take away all the valuable things in the tomb, let alone the coffin.

But if something goes wrong, forget about it for now.

Although he can walk on some lines, he will not step into them. For example, when he came to Yerengou this time, he was fully prepared.

Hu Bayi was stunned when he heard this. He understood Chen Ziyan's words, but he didn't fully understand them.

But what he can understand is that Chen Ziyan must have made other arrangements, so he has such confidence!

"Come on, continue!" Chen Ziyan rolled up his sleeves and said to the two of them without any intention of explaining too much.

The three of them immediately stopped talking and began to work together to move the coffin lid aside.

After finishing this matter, we looked into the coffin together.

The coffin was covered with silk and satin, and on top of the decayed silk satin was a lying skeleton.

After thousands of years, the clothes, skin and flesh of the tomb owner have long since rotted away, leaving only a relatively well-preserved skull.

At both ends of the coffin, there were two naked children, a boy and a girl, standing respectively. The faces of these two children were lifelike and they looked to be only five or six years old.

"Are there really two children?" Wang Kaixuan couldn't help but exclaimed after seeing the children in the coffin.

Hu Bayi stared at the coffin in silence, completely in no mood to pay attention to Wang Kaixuan.

Although he was talking about looking for the source of the child's howling, he actually didn't quite believe that it was the sound made by the child.

There are many strange and strange creatures in this world. Compared with the ghosts causing trouble, he is more willing to believe that it is the cry of some unknown creature.

Even though he just saw two children sitting on the stone coffin with his own eyes, he tried to explain it with hallucinations.

But now that he saw these two child corpses with his own eyes, Hu Bayi knew that his ideas were wrong and everything was caused by these two child corpses.

Although this fact is beyond the scope of human cognition and completely belongs to the supernatural realm, it is the fact.

Chen Ziyan was also looking at the children buried with him. He saw that they were two dolls, a boy and a girl. They looked pretty and pretty. If you ignore the purple mercury spots on their bodies, they were not very scary.

"I think these two little dolls are probably dummies. Think about it, even the master lying in the coffin is dead. How is it possible that there is nothing wrong with these two children?" Wang Kaixuan still didn't believe it, and he said

I want to show a child.

Seeing this, Chen Ziyan held down his hand and said, "This is the real person. Look at the purple spots on their bodies. Those are mercury spots. These two boys should be the children buried with the coffin owner."

Hu Bayi was in a state of trance at this time, so Chen Ziyan had to personally stop the fat man from seeking death.

Hearing Chen Ziyan's words, Hu Bayi also reacted and reminded him: "Master Chen is right, these two children may be poisonous. Don't touch them without wearing gloves."

He was afraid that something might happen to the fat man because of his recklessness. Fortunately, Chen Ziyan was by his side this time.

"I have seen descriptions of mercury immersion in novels before, but I didn't expect it to actually happen." Wang Kaixuan swallowed subconsciously and said with some regret.

In his simple world view, at least people should not do such things!

Hu Bayi also sighed: "I heard my grandfather mention this kind of thing before. The method of making such a child for burial is extremely cruel..."

After listening to Hu Bayi's story, Wang Kaixuan felt uncomfortable in his chest and couldn't help but curse: "How could these damn feudal dregs bury such a small child? He deserves to have his grave dug."

Why didn't you crush him to pieces?"

In fact, it was not just Wang Kaixuan who felt uncomfortable, Chen Ziyan and Hu Bayi also felt uncomfortable.

It's just that they are more reserved and don't show it.

Chen Ziyan patted Wang Kaixuan on the shoulder and sighed: "We couldn't do anything about it at that time, but now that we have seen it, we have to do something. Let's take them with us when we leave later. This is also

The only thing we can do right now.”

If before the opening of the museum, Chen Ziyan still had the mentality of carrying out a mission, then now he sincerely wants to help these two poor children bury themselves in peace.

Hu Bayi also nodded in agreement: "Yes, we can't let them stay here anymore. This post has been standing for thousands of years. It's time to take a good rest."

"The more I think about it, the more angry I get!"

Wang Kaixuan scratched his hair irritably, wanting to light a cigarette for himself, but they were all still wearing gas masks, so they had no choice but to put down their hands.

When his eyes accidentally glanced at the bones in the coffin, he reached out and pulled them out, threw them to the ground and kicked them hard, trampling the fragile skeleton into pieces.

"Bah! I still want to lie down in it, it's a beautiful thought!"
