Chapter Ninety-Four: The Gu King's Coffin

Uncle Tie was stunned and said, "Yes." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "Then he took kerosene out of his backpack and handed it to me. The ancient tomb is cold, although the gasoline ignites quickly, but sometimes it is not as good as kerosene, so Yang You brought some with them every time they went to the ancient tomb.

I took the bottle of kerosene in Uncle Tie's hand, turned around and walked to the front of the human and animal pillar, unscrewed the bottle, and poured it on the stone pattern on the pillar. When I had finished pouring, I took a few steps back, uneasy in my heart, and looked at the human and animal pillars in front of me.

In fact, I was also in a hurry just now, and an idea flashed through my mind. Since the density and specific gravity of human blood are heavier than water, the only thing we carry on our bodies that can be similar to human blood is the kerosene in Uncle Tie's backpack, at least it looks like this, but in fact, I am not sure in my heart.

The kerosene slowly fell along the stone pattern, I watched it slowly fall to the bottom, and the human and animal pillars did not change at all, and sweat gradually came out of the forehead, could it be that the kerosene did not work, this ghost pillar really wants to suck human blood, and it has become sperm, isn't it?

"Huang Shang, you try to drip kerosene on two pillars at the same time." Yang said suddenly.

yes, how could I have forgotten about this stubble. Since there are two pillars of human and animal animals, it means that in order to activate the mechanism, human blood must be poured on both at the same time in order to work.

I followed what Yang You said, first fell kerosene on the human and animal pillar painted with the bronze giant tree, and then quickly ran to another human animal pillar and poured kerosene on the stone pattern.

After doing this, I retreated to Yang You and Uncle Tie. The kerosene dripped slowly down the stone grain, still very slowly, and we waited patiently for it to change. But after waiting for a while, nothing happened.

Damn, did we guess wrong? Or you have to use human blood, in that case, use mine. After all, Yang You's role in the ancient tomb is much greater than mine.

"Click, click!"

I was thinking about the dripping kerosene when I heard the sound of "click", I glanced at Yang You, and found that she was also looking at me, obviously she also heard this sound.

I was just about to speak, but suddenly the sound of "click" became much louder, and the sound came from under us, and as the sound became louder, the ground still trembled slightly.

We all know that the mechanism is open, but what kind of mechanism is opened, and we don't know the bottom of our hearts, so we all squatted down, and the ghost knows if there will be a scene of thousands of arrows flying together, after all, it is still in the ancient tomb, and those invisible traps that kill people are not vegetarians.

The sound of "click, click" in the ground lasted for a while, but there was no picture of thousands of arrows flying together as I imagined, but there was also a muffled sound of "knock" from inside the bronze giant tree.

We glanced at each other and knew we might have found the right way, but we still didn't dare to get too close. After a while, the sound of the mechanism activating gradually became quieter, and in the pale yellow light of the torches, we saw the huge trunk of the bronze tree, which slowly opened a hole.

At that moment, I seemed to feel the breath that had been precipitated for thousands of years, whistling out of that big mouth, rushing to my face, but when I opened my eyes wide to see and feel clearly, it disappeared without a trace, leaving a dark and secluded hole, smiling hideously at us.

We stood up, and since we had already opened the Gu King's giant tree coffin, we were afraid that the old boy should stay inside. Yang You walked out first, and Uncle Tie followed, but I felt that something was wrong, so I shouted and waited.

Yang You and Uncle Tie stopped at the same time and turned their heads to look at me, I habitually wanted to scratch the back of my head, but remembering that the back of my head was injured, I put it down and said to them: "Don't you think something is wrong?" Don't say that the coffin of the prince and the general, even ordinary people, was nailed and sealed without thinking about opening it. Why is this Gu King's coffin still set up a mechanism, as if he was planning to let someone else open it one day. ”

Yang You and Uncle Tie turned their heads and looked at each other again, they should have thought that this was indeed the case, but there were too many incredible things that had happened in the ancient tomb, and one more was not too much.

"What the Blue and White Sect is best at is this kind of trap, and now it seems that to explain all these mysterious phenomena, I think it must have something to do with it. It's all here, and only when you enter it can you know if it's true. Yang You said, raised the powerful flashlight in his hand, and walked into the giant mouth of the bronze trunk first.

Uncle Tie and I followed in, and there was a very tacit understanding, the three of them didn't speak again, and they didn't even dare to breathe loudly, for fear of waking up something.

There is only one room about twenty square meters in size inside the trunk of the bronze tree, and there is a one-meter-high low platform in the middle, and a huge bronze coffin is placed on it.

As we got closer, Uncle Tie took out a pry bar from his backpack and patted the coffin gently, who knew that the sound made made a huge echo in the bronze walls around it, as if the whole tree was trembling, and my heart trembled, and my ears were buzzing, and I was almost deaf.

"This should be the Gu King's coffin, right?" I looked at the bronze coffin and whispered.

Yang You looked at the patterns and inscriptions on the surface of the coffin, and said: "No, if according to the system of the ancient tombs of the Warring States Period in the Central Plains, the tomb owner has at least two layers of coffins, two layers of coffins, and if the bronze tree is regarded as a coffin, then this is only the second layer." ”

After I understood, I saw that Yang You was carefully looking at the inscriptions that were like ghost paintings in my eyes, and I leaned in and said, "Can you understand these?" ”

"I understand!" Yang You didn't raise his eyes, still looking at the inscriptions and said.

I followed it for a while, and found that I really couldn't understand it, and even those engraved patterns were inexplicable, so I asked, "What does this say?" ”

Yang You held up the flashlight and said while watching: "I just understand a rough idea, it is all about praising his deeds during his lifetime, including subduing the surrounding tribes, resisting the invasion of the powerful dynasty in the north, and refining Gu medicine to help the people strengthen their health...... This tomb owner must be the Gu King we are looking for. ”

"It seems that this Gu King is still a Ming Jun, and even the quality of life of the people has improved him, what do these words mean?" I saw a string of similar numbers in the inscription, and I was a little curious to show it to Yang You.

Yang You glanced at it and said, "It is written here that this Gu King relied on some Gu medicines he invented to live to be one hundred and twenty years old. ”

I stuck out my tongue after hearing this, and said: "There is such a powerful Gu medicine that can prolong life, you see that so many emperors in history sought the method of immortality, and they were guilty of it, if those princes of the Central Plains knew about it, then wouldn't he have to face the danger of destroying the country?" ”

"The inscriptions are mostly in praise of merit, and it is not surprising that they are slightly exaggerated." Yang You said.

Uncle Tie was probably impatient to wait, and when he saw us finish, he said, "Miss, shall we open the coffin?" ”

Yang You had already finished reading all the inscriptions on the bronze coffin, nodded, and said, "Naturally, I want to open it, but ......" said and squatted down, took a knife and scraped it at the seam, and put it in the firelight to look at it.

The blade of the knife reflected white light in the firelight, and I didn't know why, so Yang You said: "You see, normally there should be a fire paint seal here, but there is nothing, which proves that the coffin has been opened." ”

After hearing this, my heart was half cold, a little frustrated, and said, "In this case, the contents must have been emptied, what is the use of opening it now." ”

Who knew that Yang You shook his head and said, "Not necessarily, since it has been opened and can be sealed back as it is, there must have happened something in it that we couldn't think of." In any case, only by opening it again can we know what happened to my aunt and them here. ”

With that, she took another candle out of her backpack, chose the direction, lit it and inserted it according to the old rules of touching gold.

Uncle Tie watched her finish, found a seam, stuck the pry bar in, snorted, pressed down hard, only heard a "quack", and the bronze coffin board was pried up.

His hand had been injured, and the coffin weighed at least five or six hundred pounds, so I hurried over to help, and pushed it out with his shoulder, and the two of them were so tired that they were half dead and only moved it out halfway. In the end, Yang You also ran over to help, and the three of them almost used all their strength to eat, and finally pushed the coffin board to the other side.

Although he was so tired that he couldn't breathe, he stood up in a hurry and shone the torch into the coffin. I saw a black lacquer coffin, placed in the copper coffin, even if a thousand years have passed, the black lacquer coffin board can still reflect the ghostly light under the light of the fire, and you don't have to think about it to know that it is a good coffin.

"It's a pity!" Yang You looked at the coffin and said. (To be continued.) )
