In the coffin corridor, Qian Xiuye had slowly walked to the coffin, although Fan Meng and Yuan Zhenba had dissuaded him, but he ignored it.

Qian Xiuye knew very well in his heart that these guys were all face-to-face people, and the ghosts behind them wished that he would die here immediately.

Qian Xiuye, who was standing in front of the coffin, stared at the coffin and stretched out his hand to get out of the way.

Fan Meng stepped forward and said, "Master, it's too dangerous. ”

"I know." Qian Xiuye looked at the coffin and said slowly, "Since you are so worried about me, why don't you come?" ”

As soon as Qian Xiuye said this, Tarsiers, Yuan Zhenba and the others immediately set their eyes on Fan Meng to see what Fan Meng said.

Fan Meng also knew that everyone was looking at him, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "Master, then I'll come." ”

Qian Xiuye smiled and put his hand on the coffin: "Did I tell you that slapping sycophants will kill people?" ”

Fan Meng was silent, just standing on the side, his face was full of iron, and Qian Xiuye's words were like a slap in the face, and he slapped him in the face fiercely.

"Zhenba, Twilight, I need your help." After Qian Xiuye finished speaking, he pointed to both sides of the coffin bed, "You each stand at one end, prepare the pickaxe, once the coffin lid is opened, you will put the pickaxe on the side and not let the coffin lid fall, understand?" ”

Yuan Zhenba and Mo Duqiao nodded silently, walked to their positions, took out their climbing pickaxes, and nodded towards Qian Xiuye together.

The tarsier stepped forward: "Boss, what do you need me to do?" ”

"Bring me my trekking poles, the one that can be retracted by metal." Qian Xiuye spread out his hand, and the tarsier immediately took it off the back of his backpack and handed it over.

"Everyone else get out of the way, Fan Meng, you step aside!" Qian Xiuye moved his lower limbs, and then glanced at Yuan Zhenba and Mo Duqiao respectively, "Slowly pry open the lid of the coffin." ”

Yuan Zhenba and Mo Duqiao pierced the tip of the mountaineering pickaxe together, and then counted "one, two, three" together, and then cocked the coffin lid, and when the coffin lid slowly opened, to a certain height, Qian Xiuye immediately said: "Stop!" Don't move! Hold on! ”

After that, Qian Xiuye lay on the edge of the coffin bed, stretched the trekking pole, pressed the coffin lid, and said, "You pay attention, be careful, I will open the coffin lid completely." ”

Yuan Zhenba took a deep breath and said calmly: "Okay, I'm ready." ”

Qian Xiuye raised his hand violently and opened the coffin lid, and the moment it was opened, the five black shadows shot out from it again, shooting directly at the position where Qian Xiuye was standing before, if Qian Xiuye was still standing at this time, he would inevitably be directly hit and caught by the black shadow.

"Hold on!" Qian Xiuye shouted, and he also held the coffin lid to the death, and Mo Duqiao and Yuan Zhenba also used a mountaineering pickaxe to put on one end and one end of the coffin, and then retreated, not letting the coffin lid fall.

Because the coffin lid did not fall, the five black shadows stretched out and never retracted.

Qian Xiuye, who was lying there, finally saw clearly through the light at this time, the so-called five hands are actually just five foldable iron rods, and there is an iron claw at the front end of each iron rod, and the moment the iron claw rushes out, it is put away and gathered, and at the moment of piercing into the human body, the iron claw will unfold, hook the flesh and catch it to death, and then with the help of the huge power of the mechanism, drag the whole person directly into the coffin.

Qian Xiuye struggled to hold on to the trekking poles, and Fan Meng immediately stepped forward to help, but Qian Xiuye refused, signaled the tarsier to step forward, and asked the tarsier to help him place the trekking poles on the edge of the coffin and hold the upper coffin lid.

After it was done, the tarsiers retreated, wiping sweat there like Qian Xiuye, because the organ could not be reset, so the coffin lid made a strange creaking sound, and it was still trembling.

"I guess this coffin lid won't last long." Qian Xiuye stepped forward with a flashlight, "The coffin lid is not made of iron, it is just a kind of black wood, which is a little better antiseptic and harder than other woods, this kind of wood is not available in China, it should have been obtained from somewhere in the Western Regions, so even if my trekking poles and pickaxe will not bend and break, this coffin lid will be broken sooner or later." ”

Yuan Zhenba also stepped forward slowly, and at the same time stared at the coffin lid, he also knew that the coffin lid could not be supported, because the power of the organ was too great, if there was not enough strength, it was impossible to drag a person who was more than 100 catties, together with the firearms and equipment on his body to 200 catties, directly dragged in.

The five of them gathered around the edge of the coffin, and when they looked inside with a strong flashlight, they were surprised to find that there was nothing inside except for a white skeleton.

Qian Xiuye was dumbfounded, and the tarsier couldn't help but say, "This ...... In just a moment, it turned into a white bone? What's going on? ”

Mo Duqiao also frowned: "After such a while, even if it is a strong acid, even if it can be corroded, it is impossible to leave bones, right?" ”

Yuan Zhenba didn't speak, he remembered something, but he wasn't sure, so he didn't say it.

"Flesh-eating coffin." Qian Xiuye finally spoke, "It must be a carnivorous coffin, there used to be a similar thing in the Acropolis of Athos, Greece, but that kind of carnivorous coffin is made of stone, and this is the black wood of the Western Regions, this kind of wood is also known as a sacred tree, once I saw a similar thing recorded in the records left by the Zhangrong chasers, he believes that in order to come back from the dead, you can't leave the skin and flesh of the past, only bones, and the skin and flesh will be reshaped by God in the process of resurrection." ”

Speaking of this, Qian Xiuye smiled: "It seems that I am really one step closer to the miracle......"

"Congratulations, Master!" Fan Meng immediately patted the sycophants on the side.

"Uncle Qian." Yuan Zhenba finally couldn't help it when he heard this, because he found that Qian Xiuye was no longer sober, and he felt that the current Qian Xiuye was just like Xing Boqiu many years ago, completely believing in the existence of the so-called miracles, no matter what he saw, he thought about the miracles, even if there was no connection, he had to find the connection far-fetched.

Qian Xiuye came back to his senses and looked at Yuan Zhenba: "What? ”

Yuan Zhen said: "Uncle Qian, have you forgotten that there is another kind of flesh-eating coffin?" ”

"What?" Qian Xiuye's eyes trembled, and Yuan Zhenba could see that he had indeed fallen into the devil.

"Ten years ago, a friend and I saw a similar coffin, also a coffin bed, a coffin and a coffin, but not in an ancient tomb, but in a private museum of an Englishman." Yuan Zhenba looked directly into Qian Xiuye's eyes, in fact, he was also reminding him, "This Englishman's nickname is Tomb Dog, which translates to mean that this person is very interested in all kinds of funeral cultures around the world, and that coffin is a replica that he bought at a great price, and the genuine product is still hidden in some underground so far, and the person who copied that group of coffins is a chaser and a coffin opener, they are very interested in the coffin, and it took a lot of effort to find the location of the real coffin, and after going in to study it, he went back and drew the drawings. And with some of their own imagination to reproduce, of course, the original is more subtle than the copy, because they refuse to destroy the relationship of the real thing, so there are some places that can only rely on their own speculation and imagination. ”

Qian Xiuye was silent, just looked inside the coffin, of course he knew who the Englishman was, the Cusco company had dealt with that person, and he knew better that Yuan Zhenba was reminding himself to be sober.

"You said it was a double coffin." Qian Xiuye finally spoke, his expression sank, "A device against tomb robbery that prevailed during the Tang Dynasty, before the mechanism was opened, the body of the tomb owner and the burial goods were in it, once the mechanism was opened, the corpse and the burial goods would fall into the coffin bed below and hide, and replace it with another fake corpse and not too many burial goods, so that the tomb robbers could take it away, so as not to destroy the real body of the tomb owner." ”

After Qian Xiuye finished speaking, he raised his eyes and looked at Yuan Zhenba: "Are you really that sure?" ”

"Definitely." Yuan Zhenba nodded, "And the mechanism of these three coffins should be linked to the next exit." ”

The tarsier immediately asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Yuan Zhenba turned around and looked at the other two coffins: "That is to say, the mechanism of the three groups of coffins must be activated correctly in order to open the door, this kind of burial method comes from the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, when the dignitaries built tombs, worried about theft, they repaired the yin and yang tombs, yin is false, yang is true." ”

Yuan Zhenba's Yin and Yang Tombs are roughly divided into two kinds, the first is that the Yin Tomb and the Yang Tomb are next to each other, but this is easy to be recognized by experienced Feng Shui masters, after all, the Central Plains has attached great importance to Feng Shui since ancient times, and the auspicious position of the burial is absolutely immovable, so it is usually taken in the way of the upper and lower positions, the upper is the Yin Tomb, and the lower is the Yang Tomb, which is both false and true.

Of course, there are also those who deliberately set the top as true and the bottom as false in order to confuse tomb robbers.

The second is the multi-place system commonly used by the ancient royal family, where the real cemetery is hidden in one place, and at the same time a fake cemetery palace is built in other places, and some craftsmen who build fake tombs will be deliberately released to let them release the false news.

What Yuan Zhenba refers to is actually the first type, and it is also a relatively common one, after all, ordinary large households cannot "bloom everywhere" when building cemeteries like the royal family.

Fan Meng understood: "Senior Brother Yuan means that this is a Yin Tomb, and you need to open a certain mechanism before you can find the entrance to the Yang Tomb?" ”

Yuan Zhenba nodded, he knew that he had said enough, he couldn't say it anymore, and if he continued to say it, he might anger Qian Xiuye, after all, Qian Xiuye was already a bit weird at this time.

And the reason why Yuan Zhenba wanted to remind Qian Xiuye was completely out of fear that Qian Xiuye's demonic madness at this time would kill him.

Qian Xiuye took two steps back, looked like a lost soul, and asked, "Then how do you open the mechanism?" ”

After Qian Xiuye asked, he slowly raised his eyes to look at Yuan Zhenba, and the others also took advantage of the situation to look over, after all, in this team, in addition to Qian Xiuye, Yuan Zhenba was the most experienced.

Yuan Zhenba was helpless, and was about to say his analysis, Mo Duqiao turned around and walked towards the depths of the corridor, Yuan Zhenba looked at his back, and after a long time, everyone's walkie-talkie sounded: "Master, there is a crack in the wall at the intersection of the dead end, but there is no way for people to pass through, I think, it should be necessary to activate the mechanism of the three coffins in order to open this stone door." ”

Yuan Zhenba nodded and looked at Qian Xiuye: "What Mo Duqiao said is what I want to say." ”

"Okay, okay......" Qian Xiuye nodded, "Then you guys, just be careful and open all three coffins." ”

Fan Meng was about to open his mouth and ask the tarsiers to take people up, but thinking of what Qian Xiuye said before, he had to shut up.

At this time, the tarsier had already brought his subordinates over, took out his tools, and carefully opened the other two coffins according to the previous methods of Qian Xiuye, Mo Duqiao and Yuan Zhenba.

"How? Is it on? Qian Xiuye picked up the walkie-talkie and asked.

"Nope." Standing in front of the stone wall at the end, the Twilight Bridge responded, "There is not the slightest movement. ”

Qian Xiuye was silent for a while, then raised his eyes and looked at everyone: "I know what is missing." ”

As soon as Qian Xiuye said this, everyone else understood, even those mercenaries understood, what was the difference? The person who was sent to lie in the coffin, a mercenary was caught in the first coffin, and although the second and third coffins were opened, there was no one inside, no living people......

Everyone was silent, at this time, no one would come forward, this is different from being a death squad on the battlefield, when the death squad has more or less a chance of survival, but if you enter this kind of coffin, you will definitely die.

Fan Meng didn't speak, and he didn't dare to raise his eyes to look at Qian Xiuye.

Qian Xiuye said slowly: "Zhenba also said before, the white bones in the first coffin are not the first brother's, the first brother was just replaced, and the person is still in the coffin below, right?" ”

Yuan Zhenba frowned, and decided to tell the truth: "That's also dead, although the white bones before were not his, they were in the coffin before, but if you think about it carefully, after thousands of years, why is that skeleton still Bai Sensen's?" The reason is simple, there is a drug in it that can re-corrode the previous skeleton and bleach......"

Yuan Zhenba didn't say any more, but everyone else understood, the earliest bones were soaked in potions, which means that the coffin bed was full of potions, and once a living person fell into it, he would definitely die, and it was impossible for him to be like Qian Xiuye said, nothing would happen.

Qian Xiuye frowned and looked at Yuan Zhenba, feeling that he was troublesome.

Yuan Zhenba just stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Uncle Qian, none of them are fools. ”

Qian Xiuye looked at Yuan Zhenba and said word for word: "No one will volunteer." ”

"Neither you nor I can give orders for them to go." The tarsier also stood beside him and whispered, "Although they are all my subordinates, if you and I let them go to their deaths, they will also mutiny." ”

Qian Xiuye smiled: "Then what should I do?" ”

"Draw lots." Mo Duqiao walked back at this time and said these two words.

After listening to this, most of them nodded in agreement, which was the fairest way now.

"The draw will also be unconvincing." The tarsier suddenly said, "I have a way, relatively fair, and I will master it myself." ”

Qian Xiuye looked at the tarsiers: "Tell me about it?" ”

The tarsiers smiled bitterly: "We now have 12 people left, let's draw lots first, write 6 groups of numbers from 1 to 6 on the note, draw the same number as a group, two people in the same group, and then use rock-paper-scissors to decide, so that there will be 6 losers, these 6 people will draw lots, and then divide into 3 groups, and then use rock-paper-scissors to decide the last 3 people, and the last 3 people will use rock-paper-scissors to decide, and the two who win will ...... Into the coffin, listen up, and in the end it is the two people who win into the coffin. ”

Fan Meng frowned and said, "It's too complicated, isn't it?" ”

"It's actually quite simple." Yuan Zhenba was already sweating profusely, "It's just that the process is a little cumbersome, but it's fair, no one can cheat." ”

Fan Meng swallowed his saliva and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "But, the last 3 people, how can they use rock-paper-scissors?" ”

Mo Duqiao said coldly beside him, "You don't have a childhood, do you?" Why can't you use rock-paper-scissors, it can't be three people out of the same every time, or three different at the same time, there will always be two out of the same and one out of the same, so fair, I agree. ”

Qian Xiuye looked at the remaining 7 mercenaries: "What do you think?" ”

The seven people looked at each other and nodded helplessly, of course some of them didn't want to do this, and wanted to leave at that time, but no one dared to say it, and it was impossible to give them time and space to discuss.

Of course, the most ironic thing is that it is children's games that decide everyone's life and death.

Maybe it's really lucky, the first round of lottery is over, and after screening with rock-paper-scissors, Qian Xiuye, Fan Meng, and Yuan Zhenba have all become lucky ones, while Tarsiers and Mo Duqiao were forced to enter the next round of screening, and in this way, among the remaining 3 people, there are still two people, Tarsier and Mo Duqiao, as well as a short mercenary.

The mercenary was trembling all over, subconsciously turned his head to look at the coffin, and closed his eyes.

The tarsier and the ink twilight bridge looked at each other, and looked at both of them and smiled, the tarsier moved his neck and said, "Come on, hurry up, life and death are fate." ”

At this moment, Qian Xiuye suddenly spoke: "Tarsiers, how many years have you followed me?" ”

The tarsiers knew what Qian Xiuye was going to say, so he said, "Boss, since you have set the rules, why don't you follow them?" ”

Qian Xiuye grinned: "Okay, then follow the rules, it's good!" ”

Tarsiers, Ink Twilight Bridge and the short mercenary stood together, and after counting one, two, three, the three of them came out together, no one thought that the first game would be decided The short mercenary and the tarsier came out of the scissors at the same time, and the Ink Twilight Bridge came out of the cloth.

Qian Xiuye breathed a sigh of relief, closed his eyes and said, "Providence." ”

Inkwilight stepped back to the side and looked at the tarsier and the mercenary, who turned his head to look at the tarsier and opened his mouth to say something, but couldn't.

The tarsiers' hand still maintained the posture of scissors, and it took a long time before slowly withdrawing it, smiling at the short mercenary, turning to the remaining mercenaries and saying: "Brothers, our fate in this life is over, if there is a next life, we are still brothers, if I am still your eldest brother in the next life, I will definitely not take you to do this, I will definitely not ......"

After speaking, the tarsier turned around again and hugged the short mercenary: "Boss, I'm sorry for you, let's go together on Huangquan Road, I'll be your horse, and you ride me on the road!" ”

The short mercenary nodded, turned and walked tremblingly towards his coffin, where he stood and looked at the tarsiers who were also standing in front of the coffin, and then the two of them slowly slipped through the gap.

After getting in, the tarsier shouted inside: "Qian Xiuye, what the are you waiting for, order, let them take away those things that are supported!" Hurry up! Lao Tzu is on his way! ”

Qian Xiuye waved his hand silently, but the mercenaries standing next to the two coffins did not move, just stood there straight, saluted towards the coffin, and then closed his eyes, gritted his teeth and took away the supporting items.

The moment it was opened, the coffin lid was closed heavily, and while there was a loud noise, the sound of the mechanism turning was also heard inside.

Yuan Zhenba closed his eyes and couldn't bear to look, Mo Duqiao was still expressionless, and Qian Xiuye turned his head to look at the end of the corridor, waiting for the door to open.

Only Fan Meng, who was hiding in the corner, had a sinister smile on his face.
