Chapter 143: Hanging Coffin on Water

Zhang Ling continued to walk forward with a lighter in his hand, the flame was not extinguished, but his eyes gradually lit up. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

There was a circular pool in front of it, the surface of the water shimmering, as if there was moonlight shining on it.

"I think it was midday when we came, so soon it was night?" Zhang Ling asked the female ghost Hongyun behind him.

"It shouldn't be so soon as night, and the light on the surface of the water should be as bright as the glowing stones on it." As she spoke, the female ghost Hongyun pointed to the stones above her head.

Zhang Ling looked up, nodded and said, "Those on the top of the head seem to be moonstones, and this thing is also extremely rare, such a large piece must be worth a lot of money." ”

"This thing alone makes you tempted, look at your little bit of interest." The female ghost Hongyun said, and glanced at Zhang Ling again.

"Who said I was tempted, such a big piece of moonstone, even if it was valuable, I couldn't take it out." Zhang Ling scraped the bridge of his nose, then squinted at something in the middle of the pool.

There seemed to be a coffin suspended in the center of the pool, and judging from the appearance of this coffin, it must have been some years old.

It's just that there is nothing like a chain steel cable hanging above this coffin, so why can it be suspended here? Could it be that the water in the pond in front of him is so shallow that it can't even be submerged under the coffin?

Thinking of this, Zhang Ling picked up a stone from the ground and threw it into the water, judging from the sound of the stone falling into the water, the pool should not be shallow.

"Could it be because the edge of this pool is deep and the sides are shallow?" Thinking of this, Zhang Ling asked the female ghost Hongyun to go over and check it out.

"Why do you want me to go over and look at it, you can't check it yourself." The female ghost Hongyun pouted, obviously a little unhappy.

"I can't fly, otherwise I'm still begging you?"

"Don't you have a flying charm? You can use that kind of thing. As she spoke, the female ghost Hongyun glanced at Zhang Ling with disdain.

"Oh, what a waste of resources to use that stuff. Anyway, you walk with floating, and it won't take much effort for you to get there. Zhang Ling began to be witty again.

"Hmph, I think you're just scared that when you got over there, a giant python suddenly came out of the water." After speaking, the female ghost red cloud flew to the hanging coffin.

"Did you find anything?" Zhang Ling stood on the shore and asked loudly.

"Discovery? I found out if you count, do you? A happy male voice suddenly came from behind him, and it was obvious that it was not from the female ghost Hongyun.

It wasn't sent by the female ghost Red Cloud, nor did it come from herself, could it be that someone else followed here?

Thinking of this, Zhang Ling hurriedly turned his body to look over, only to see a scrawny old man standing opposite him.

His head was bald, his face was covered with wrinkles, and his teeth were yellow.

Zhang Ling's heart thumped, and he immediately took four or five steps back.

The old man was only wearing a large pair of pants, and the rest of the place was bare.

But that's it, the old man still seems very happy, dancing and singing back and forth around Zhang Ling.

This old man was extremely enthusiastic about himself, but Zhang Ling was afraid, he pointed at the old man and asked, "Uncle, who are you and why are you here?" ”

"Why do you call me uncle, why don't you call me uncle?"

"This ......." Faced with the question raised by the old man, Zhang Ling was suddenly helpless, he really didn't know how to answer.

"Young man, it shouldn't be you asking why I'm here, but I'm asking who you are and why you're here?"

"Why?" Although Zhang Ling was afraid of this old man, he couldn't help but ask.

The old man's next words surprised Zhang Ling even more, he pointed to the hanging coffin in the middle of the pool, and said, "See, that's where I usually rest." This is my home, and I lived here with Niu Niu before you came, so I'm certainly entitled to ask you why you're here. ”

"You live here, and you're usually resting in that coffin, aren't you a zombie?" Speaking of this, Zhang Ling took a few steps back, and then took out a few spirit runes from his pocket.

"Niuniu told me before that there was a guest in our house, but I didn't expect it to be such a rude little guy like you." As he spoke, the old man shook his head and made a very regretful expression.

"Niu Niu? Who is Niu Niu? Zhang Ling asked.

"Niu Niu, Niu Niu, come out to greet the guests." The old man shouted loudly into the darkness.

Soon, Zhang Ling heard a rumbling footsteps.

The thing that came to Zhang Ling knew was the minotaur he met in the reservoir.

When the thing saw the old man, it immediately knelt down respectfully in front of him, and a sentence came out of the cow's mouth: "Master, what are you calling me for?" ”

"I just wanted to ask if you did something rude after you went out, and then made this little brother angry?"

"Master, I don't." The minotaur replied respectfully.

"This little brother, may I ask what is your name?" The old man's eyes were huge, and when he spoke, his eyes widened so that Zhang Lingzhi broke out in a cold sweat.

"My name is Zhang Ling."

"Oh, Zhang Ling, you see that our Niu Niu said that he didn't do anything impolite, don't be so stingy." After the old man finished speaking, he began to cheer and jump towards Zhang Ling, rubbing his hands non-stop.

The old man was getting closer and closer to him, and Zhang Ling could already see that he was drooling at him.

"Wait, don't come here yet!" Zhang Ling waved his hand at the old man.

"What's the matter, young man, why are you unhappy again?" The old man pouted.

Zhang Ling's eyes rolled, and he pointed at the old man and said, "I thought about it, that Niu Niu of your family did a very rude thing outside." ”

"What's rude?" The old man turned his head and glared fiercely at the minotaur, who immediately lowered his head and trembled.

"That cow cow of your family threatened the water ghosts outside to help him catch people, and besides, he also ate the people captured by the water ghosts." When Zhang Ling spoke, he kept stretching out his hand and pointing at the trembling minotaur.

"You mean it's eating people, and in your opinion, cannibalism is rude?" The old man slowly raised his head and looked at Zhang Ling.

"Nonsense, is it polite to eat people? You've got to take care of your pets. Zhang Ling thought that the old man realized his mistake, and his tone began to harden.

"But I also ate the people Niu Niu brought, do you think I'm also rude?" Speaking of this, the old man suddenly looked at Zhang Ling and smiled, revealing a row of-yellow teeth.

"You're eating people too?" Zhang Ling's back was directly cold, and his legs began to tremble.

I don't know what's going on, this strange old man in front of him can always bring him an unprecedented fear.

At this time, the female ghost Red Cloud also flew over from the hanging coffin.

She first glanced at the old man and the minotaur opposite Zhang Ling with a touch of surprise, and then said to Zhang Ling: "The water in the center of the pool is not shallow, and there is nothing to support under the hanging coffin, and the coffin seems to be supported and suspended by an invisible force. At first, I thought there was something in the coffin, but when I opened it, there was nothing inside. ”

"Is it rude for you to open my coffin without my consent?" When the strange old man heard this, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the female ghost Hongyun with a fierce face.
