Weird Regulator

"Get out! I won't do your business!"

The old man had a very bad temper, and he felt even more rude when he saw Ji Li rushing into his shop without any explanation.

As soon as he came up, he chased after him and grabbed Ji Li's sleeve.

The other people looked at the frail old man and did not dare to stop him, for fear of accidentally hurting him.

But Ji Li couldn't control that much. He hated anyone having close contact with him, especially strangers. He turned around coldly and shook off the old man's entanglement.

He took out a bag of golden beans from his arms, placed it on the table, and said with an indifferent expression:

"I took a look and saw that there are a lot of coffins in your yard. I only want seven. Don't say anything about not doing my business."

Ji Li is a villain. His patience is sometimes good and sometimes bad. His tolerance for tasks is extremely high, but when dealing with people, he usually has no patience at all.

The old man looked at the bag of gold and became silent. Perhaps he was shocked by Ji Li's attitude, or perhaps he was blocked by the bag of gold.

However, he never touched the bag of gold. Instead, he carried the boy to the gate, moved the bench and sat down.

Ji Li had already entered the courtyard at this time. From the outside, the shop was not big, but in fact it was unique.

Most of the daily necessities are placed at the entrance. There are coffins in the courtyard in the middle, and the house further back is where the grandfather and grandson live.

There are about ten coffins placed in this courtyard.

In fact, carrying a coffin is relatively unreasonable.

An ordinary coffin is 6.5 feet long, 2 feet wide, and 2.3 feet high. This is already the size of an adult living person.

And this is only the internal size. The size of the entire coffin is about two meters.

The coffins in front of me are basically made of fir or cypress, and they are quite heavy.

Ji Li simply lifted the bottom with his hands, but found that he needed to use all his strength with one hand to lift even one corner. Even this ordinary empty coffin would have weighed less than 200 kilograms.

This is too fatal for store clerks.

Just carrying the coffin took up half of his strength, how could he still deal with the ghosts who were always ready to attack.

He even said that Chang Nian and other women, how could they carry it?

Ji Li felt that he had made things too simple, so he hesitated and then said to the others:

"It seems we can't carry this kind of adult coffin into the mountains. We have to search other stores to see if there are small coffins for children. At the very least, we have to buy cheap thin-skinned coffins."

Everyone saw Ji Li's attempt just now. Now looking for small coffins and thin-skinned coffins is the only way.

It's impossible to really be carried into the mountain with a big coffin. That would be no different from seeking death.

Everyone has left, but Ji Li is still walking around the pile of coffins. He is thinking about the purpose of the hotel's request to exchange coffins for coffins.

But they still can't guess. It's still unclear what they will experience after entering Fengshan, so the choice of coffin becomes more complicated.

Choosing a coffin is the first step in the task, so is it really that simple?

Ji Li didn't think so. He always felt that the coffin would be of great use, at least covering the whole situation.

Gradually, he set his sights on the coffin placed in the corner.

This is the most special coffin. The other coffins are all pure black, and there are even some rough ones mixed with brown.

But only this coffin was a rich dark red. It looked like it had been soaked in blood, and it had become extremely dark.

But when you touch it, you can feel it's smooth and round, like jade, with a hint of coolness.

"You don't deserve this coffin."

While Ji Li was thinking, the old man with a bad temper came to him at some point and said these words.

Ji Li was moved and asked quickly, "Is there anything special about this coffin?"

"Red is the first of the five righteous colors. A coffin is used to bury the dead as well as a living person. Red coffins only bury noble people, and you are not worthy of it."

"The material of this coffin is unusual. It doesn't look like something you can make." Ji Li withdrew his gaze coldly and wiped the dust from his palms.

"It's been sitting here for a long time without anyone visiting it. It looks like it can't be sold. Why don't you sell it to me today."

Ji Li believed in Yan Yuan. He had tried to lift the coffin lid before and found that the coffin was very light.

This dark red coffin has an extraordinary texture and is definitely not as heavy as what you see in front of you. If you really have to carry the coffin into the mountains, this coffin may be of great use.

The hotel asked them to choose a coffin, but they were not clear about the task format. To be on the safe side, Ji Li chose a normal-sized and solid coffin to avoid loopholes.

When the old man saw that Ji Li seemed to really want to take it, his eyes suddenly turned dark and he asked with a half-smile:

"Who says I haven't sold it before? Everyone can tell that this coffin is extraordinary. I have sold it three times in total, but it was never completed."

"Oh?" Ji Li became interested when he heard this and wanted to continue asking.

However, the old man seemed unwilling to say more and kept silent about how he obtained the coffin.

Ji Li looked at his leaving figure, and his face became colder and colder. This old man had ulterior motives and was by no means the kind of good person with a cold face and a warm heart.

The red coffin has different meanings in different regions.

What the old man said about burying noble people in red coffins is indeed one of them, but that refers to the color red.

But this coffin is indeed dark in color, not pure red, which means its meaning has completely changed.

If Ji Li's memory is correct, the blood-red coffin is a sign of great misfortune.

And blood red like this has completely infiltrated into the coffin itself, turning into dark red over time, and will become a great evil.

"Hundred Ghosts Coffin!"

There are ghosts in the world, and one coffin can seal one ghost. Only the Hundred Ghost Coffin can seal hundreds of ghosts.

The evil thing can suppress ghosts, just like the ghost in Tiannan College can supervise other ghosts.

In any case, it was never a good thing to be close to this coffin, but Ji Li still chose it.

First of all, it was due to the rules of the hotel. Secondly, the coffin was very light and it was not a problem to carry it. The last reason was just like what he thought.

The great evil thing may play an alternative role in the mission.

Anyway, if there are more ghosts, there is no need to worry.

Ji Li decided to take a gamble and began to take off his backpack, drilling holes and threading ropes on the coffin so that it could be carried securely on his body.

About an hour later, less than forty minutes before the mission started, the rest of the store clerks gradually returned.

Ji Li had already carried the dark red coffin behind his back. He could not straighten his back, but it was only a little stooped. Since it was not too heavy, he could move quite freely.

Chang Nian, Tian Xiaoyu, Dong Yuan and Yu Guo also came in one after another, with coffins already on their backs.

But they were all thin-skinned coffins, the cheapest and least sturdy ones. Even the coffin on Tian Xiaoyu's body was unstable due to drilling holes and stringing.

But despite this, it was still extremely difficult for Tian Xiaoyu to walk, and her physical strength was really poor.

Yu Guo was not much better. He already had injuries on his ribs. He was carrying the coffin with his head lowered and his face turned red.

Chang Nian had no reaction, and Dong Yuan was fine for a short period of time.

Ji Li looked at the few people, hesitated for a moment, and then expressed his guess.

Chang Nian took a breath when he heard the words: "Are you doubting that we can't choose the coffin at will, or do we have to carry it according to the rules?"

Ji Li didn't want to say more, but Chang Nian and Yu Guo were involved. He still hoped that these two people could insist on choosing a regular black coffin.

Yu Guo didn't think much about it. He cherished his life very much now and would never die before seeing Ah Lian, so he quickly unloaded the coffin and started picking it up on the spot.

Chang Nian and Dong Yuan also took advice. Although the hotel said that the coffin should not be left behind, it only needs to be within two meters. If you can't bear it anymore, you can put it down and rest.

However, Tian Xiaoyu tried the black coffin several times, but it was still too difficult. In the end, she replaced it with Chang Nian's original thin-skinned coffin, which was considered a sturdier one.

Only then did Ji Li realize that their team was missing two people. He frowned and looked out the door.

"Why haven't Tang Duan and Hong Fu come back yet?"
