63. The burial chamber in the fork
When I took off my shoes, the soles of my feet were already jet black.
"I just looked like something was pricked in the sole of my foot at the headhunter, how did it become like this?" I said, looking at the soles of my feet.
Mi Ye quickly took out some herbs and a bronze dagger from her bag.
"Brother, bear with me." Mi Ye said.
After finishing speaking, Mi Ye took a cloth strap and tied it tightly around my ankle, and then used the dagger to cut a hole in the bottom of my foot. The jet-black blood flowed down from the opening in an instant, and with Mi Ye's unique technique, all the dirty blood flowed out from the knife edge. Mi Ye untied the cloth belt, then applied herbs to the wound, and after bandaging it with gauze, the soles of my feet did not hurt at all.
"Thank you." I said to Mi Ye.
"Brother, try to move around and see how it goes." Mi Ye said.
I put on my shoes and walked around a bit, and it was no big deal.
"Alright." I said.
Mi Ye nodded, and silently put the leftover things back in her bag.
"Sayoko, did your brother step on something?" Brother Neng asked.
"It should be a bone spur, I'm not sure, but fortunately, the poison on it is not very powerful, and it was found in time." Mi Ye said.
After listening to Mi Ye's words, I finally breathed a sigh of relief in my heart. That way you won't be dragging everyone down.
"Xiao Linzi, what about the escaped corpse ghost?" Brother Neng asked, pointing to the waterhole in the distance.
I just wanted to speak.
"Brother, don't pay attention to it, as long as we don't separate, it won't dare to come. And I found that it couldn't go too far from the waterhole. Mi Ye said.
"In that case, let's go and see the fork in the road you found first." I said, putting my backpack on.
The three of us soon arrived at the place where Mi Ye said, and a very hidden fork in the dark tomb road appeared on the edge of the tomb road. If you don't look closely, you won't be able to see this fork in the road. No wonder we were separated here before. The three of us walked along the fork in the road, and soon saw two white bones with arrows stuck in their bodies, apparently the corpses that Mi Ye said had transformed into me and Brother Neng.
Mi Ye stepped forward to retrieve the arrow from the white bone and put it back in her quiver.
We continued on and found a large burial chamber. In the center of the burial chamber is a large coffin resting quietly on a stone platform.
"Is this the burial chamber?" I swallowed and said.
When I saw the burial chamber, I couldn't help but get excited at the thought of having funerary goods.
"Brother, you wait a minute." Mi Ye looked at me and Brother Neng's impatient appearance and hurriedly said.
"How's Nighto? Is there something wrong? I asked.
"Brother, don't you think it's strange that there's nothing here but a coffin? There isn't even a single burial item in such a large ghost mausoleum, which is outrageous. Mi Ye said.
"I just thought about getting rich by ascending to the coffin, and it seems that cultivation is still not enough." I said with some embarrassment.
Brother Neng smiled at me. The two of us could only endure the excitement in our patience and follow Mi Ye to inspect this tomb together.
There is nothing on the walls of this tomb, and there is no writing or pattern on the ground or ceiling, and there is no trace of the owner of the tomb or the burial goods. After suppressing the excitement of opening the coffin in my heart, I also began to wonder why this ancient tomb was like this. Doesn't the ghost clan promote the practice of thick burials? But the magnificent, luxurious sacrificial vessels in the dining room are not at all like the low-key and simple mausoleum.
"There's nothing in this chamber but that coffin. Not even a door. Brother Neng said.
"The owner of this tomb is so thrifty and low-key, and he actually placed his bones in such a humble place, without the slightest momentum that a ghost tomb should have." I said.
"It seems that the coffin can only be opened, otherwise how can we know who the owner of the tomb is?" Brother Neng rubbed his hands excitedly and said.
Mi Ye didn't speak. Just quietly looking at the coffin in the center of the burial chamber.
Brother Neng and I walked to the coffin. Looking at this huge Nanmu coffin, I was amazed. Although there is nothing in this tomb, the various exquisite animal carvings on this Nanmu coffin are amazing, and the flowing technique, the picture is harmonious and interesting. Various animals with beautiful meanings are carved around the coffin. On the lid of the coffin, a phoenix bird the size of the coffin lid is vividly depicted on the coffin lid. Although the color is mottled, it is not difficult to see what it was when you look at the rest of it.
"I'm afraid this coffin is enough for us to brag about in the antique world for a long time." I said with a smile.
"This trip back, I will definitely let the few pokes next to us no longer be able to put up a score, this kind of tomb before the Qin and Han dynasties has a few people who are fortunate enough to come once. Look what those landlubbers are talking about. Brother Neng said excitedly.
"Yes, yes, yes, I must have made a fortune this time." I said with a smile.
Mi Ye watched coldly, did not speak, and did not come up to help.
Brother Neng and I looked at Mi Ye as if she was unhappy, and put away our hippie smiles.
"Xiaoye, what's wrong?" I asked.
"It's okay brother, let's start." Mi Ye said against the wall.
Brother Neng and I took out our tools and began to look for the nail on the coffin. But there were no nails on the coffin at all.
"Isn't there a tomb owner in this?" I whispered.
"Xiaolinzi, there are no coffin nails, let's try it." Brother Neng said.
"Okay, let's try it first." I said.
Brother Neng and I stuck our short knives into the cracks in the coffin. Then slowly lift it up to the other side.
This coffin is made of high-quality wood, which is very heavy, and Brother Neng and I are not professional tomb robbers, so it took a lot of effort to open the coffin. The moment it was opened, a black gas erupted. Frightened, Brother Neng and I smashed the coffin lid in our hands on the ground. Fortunately, the wood of this coffin lid is good, otherwise it might have been smashed into several pieces.
Brother Neng and I covered our mouths and noses and sat on the ground. Watching the black gas in the coffin waft away.
At this time, Mi Ye gave me and Brother Neng a pill each, and told us to take it so as not to inhale the poisonous gas.
Brother Neng and I took the pill and watched the black qi gradually dissipate. Slowly walked to the coffin.
"What is this?" I said, looking at what appeared in the coffin.
Inside the coffin we opened, a bronze coffin smaller than a nanmu coffin appeared in front of our eyes.
"I've only seen wood inside the stone, and this is the first time I've seen the wood with bronze inside." Brother Neng said.
Mi Ye was attracted by our words and finally walked to our side.
Mi Ye looked at the bronze coffin in the coffin and was also confused, not knowing why he did this.
"Open it and see?" I said.
