Chapter 360: A Trip to the Ancestral Temple (Part II)

Wait a minute! Zu Lan pulled He Cheng away, and the two of them leaned against the inner wall of the secret room, their faces full of vigilance, and even their breathing became short. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"How...... What's wrong? "After almost a minute, nothing happened in the secret room, not to mention the dumplings covered with black hair and abnormal bad breath, not even a living mosquito, which made He regret wonder.

Zu Lan's wrung brows did not disperse because of this, but his expression was also a little shaken, he clearly smelled that dangerous feeling just now, could it be that he was too nervous and had an illusion?

Zu Lan shook his head, secretly saying strange in his heart, He Cheng also breathed a sigh of relief, and comforted her: "You are an occupational disease, we are in the ancestral temple of our old He family, not in the tomb of the deep mountains and old forests, where do so many dirty things come from." ”

"It's not that you said that there was a ghost here, and I won't accompany you when a zongzi pops out and pulls you to see your ancestors." Zu Lan pursed his lips and smiled slightly.

He regrets that he is not completely fearless, but he has come down, is it possible that the coffin will not be opened and leave directly? Maybe there was some secret buried in this coffin, he looked at Zu Lan twice, and came to the side of the coffin again.

The four sides of the coffin were fixed with finger-thick rivets, but they were not smashed tightly, He Cheng took out the small hammer from the backpack and pried the rivets up without much effort, except for the sound of his and Zu Lan's breathing, only the sound of "clanging" iron echoed in the secret room, and as the rivets around the coffin were pried up by He Cheng one by one, the faces of the two became more and more solemn.

Zu Lan checked the passage coming down from above again, and after determining their escape route, he glanced at He Cheng, who nodded. With great difficulty, he overturned the coffin lid aside.

There were only a few pieces of clothing and two thin quilts in the coffin, and nothing else was to be seen.

"Could it be a well-dressed ......," He Cheng frowned, secretly wondering if this was a well-dressed mound.

"Shut up!" Zu Lan interrupted him. This is not the first time she has seen this situation, and she only remembered that the ancestral temple of the He family did not see the beams at all. There are no beams in the house, this is the architectural style of the Yin House, no wonder it feels gloomy after coming in, this coffin is buried in the ground of this Yin House and occupies the extreme Yin wind, if there is really a dead body buried inside, I am afraid it has been a fraudulent corpse.

Zu Lan couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine when she thought of this result, as if someone was blowing cold air on her from behind.

He regret was stunned when he heard this, thinking that Zu Lan was deliberately teasing him, but when he looked back, Zu Lan's expression was not like a joke, so he asked Zu Lan a few words. Zu Lan did not hide it from He Cheng, and told He Cheng what he had discovered.

This knowledge is the most basic for tomb robbers, He Cheng has also heard of it, his expression became solemn, and the two of them checked the secret room again, but there was still nothing strange about it.

"Maybe I've thought too much, did you find anything useful in the coffin?" Zu Lan said.

"Just a few torn clothes and quilts, I haven't had time to look closely, it's not a good place anyway. I'll look for it, and we'll get out of here before it gets dark. He Cheng shrugged his shoulders and jumped into the coffin.

There was a musty smell on the quilt and clothes in the coffin, and He regretted shaking the contents to the outside of the coffin.

"The ancestors of our old He family are really poor enough. The funeral goods were actually a few clothes and two quilts. He Cheng, who had not found anything, laughed at himself as he jumped out of the coffin.

"Let's go, it's not too early. Even if there are no rice dumplings here, it is not a clean place, and it is easy to have accidents at night. He Cheng continued.

"Wait a minute." Zu Lan waved his hand and leaned down, and there was a hole in the corner of the quilt. A dagger that shone a little in the light leaked out of it, "It's a dagger, you know?" ”

Zu Lan pulled the thing out of the quilt, but it was a handful, but this dagger looked a little unusual, the handle of the dagger was wrapped in a white cloth, and the blade was bright red as blood.

"I don't know." He Cheng shook his head, he didn't find it before, it turned out that this thing was sewn into the quilt.

Since there is a dagger in the quilt, will there be anything else? He Cheng leaned down and tore the two quilts on the ground, the cotton wool was scattered everywhere, and a small quilt wrapped in brown paper fell from it.

"This is ......" Zu Lan picked up and opened the brown paper, and when she saw the name on the title page of the small notebook, she couldn't hide her surprise, and covered her mouth with her hand.

Seeing her expression like this, He Cheng also leaned over to look, and his hands couldn't help but tremble when he saw the name, because the name was "He Jiu".

He Cheng took the small book from Zu Lan's hand, and before he could flip through it, there was a sudden shaking in the secret room, and the two grabbed the coffin and tried to stabilize their bodies.

"What's wrong?" He Cheng asked, feeling sorry in his heart, could it be an earthquake, this is too coincidental.

"I don't know, I feel like I'm out of here!" Zu Lan Dao.

Both of them understood that this might not be as simple as an earthquake, and even if it was, it would definitely not be a wise choice to hide here, and the two of them staggered as the earth shook and staggered down to the passage they had come down.

"Blood!" He Cheng saw a red color on his hands, thinking that his hands had wiped the skin on the wall, and after a closer look, he noticed that the blood was not his own, but from the wall.

He Cheng stopped and looked at the stone walls around the secret room, the cracks in the stone walls were all bubbling with red water, which looked like blood, which was particularly terrifying.

Zu Lan, who was holding He Cheng's hand, felt a heavy burden behind her, and turned around to teach He Cheng a lesson, but as soon as she turned around, she also saw the terrifying scene in the secret room, and what was even more terrifying was that she saw a shriveled hand crawling out along the coffin.

There was obviously nothing in the coffin just now, where did this hand come from? Zu Lan and He Cheng both shuddered in their hearts, but they didn't dare to go back to find out, and hurriedly ran out.

I don't know if it's because of the shaking just now, the stone staircase leading to the ground has been crooked and broken into several pieces, and it is also full of red liquid, and it is very slippery to step on it, He Cheng and Zu Lan have slipped down several times.

"You go up first, I'll give you a hand." He Cheng shouted in the back.

"And what do you do?" Zu Lan asked.

"You go up first and then figure it out! Don't talk so much nonsense! He regretted raising his eyebrows and said sharply.

Zu Lan didn't continue to be hypocritical, and climbed up firmly, she didn't care about her image at this time, she finally climbed up with her hands and feet.

At this time, the blood in the secret room was gushing upwards like a mountain spring, and by the time Zu Lan reached the ground, the blood had already reached He Cheng's waist, which made his heart full of fear.

"Next!" Zu Lan on the ground quickly found a rope and threw it down, but He Cheng caught the rope, but his face was suddenly full of fear.

"Hurry up, why are you stunned!" Zu Lan couldn't help but shout when he saw He Cheng standing still.

"My feet are ......" Before He Cheng finished speaking, his body was suddenly pulled into the blood, and he didn't even show his head, and Zu Lan was almost pulled off. (To be continued.) )
