Chapter 69: The Seven-Star Coffin
The zombie just has a breath of resentment in his chest that hasn't dissipated, and since the Pure Heart Mantra can expel the resentment, why can't he deal with the Corpse King?
Zhang Zhenren shook his head and said: "The resentment in the zombie's chest is so easy to dissolve, and that resentment has not been good for thousands of years, let alone the Pure Heart Mantra." ”
I didn't have much to lose, because I had already roughly guessed a few.
Zhang Zhenren wanted to say something, but the other two people showed signs of waking up, Zhang Zhenren changed his words and said: "Master left first, you remember, you must find the Yin and Yang Qiankun Seal, only with it, can you carry forward the secret art of Maoshan and make up for your shortcomings." ”
I nodded, and Zhang Zhenren said a few more words before leaving.
I lay on the ground for a while, and after a while, the fat man Fu Wenjian and two other people woke up one after another.
After waking up, we ate some dry food and began to formalize the seven coffins in front of us.
The fat man took the lead and said: "This is the seven-star suspicious coffin." ”
I was a little surprised, I could barely see the Seven Star Array at this time, but I didn't expect the fat man to understand this.
The other two people also nodded, and one of them said: "Seven coffins, all of them have hidden mechanisms, and if they are opened rashly, they will definitely die." But under one of the coffins, there should be Cao Cao's body. ”
He said yes, and maybe not! In fact, I don't think there should be Cao Cao's body in these seven coffins. Cao Cao is also a generation of heroes, and there is no reason why he is so simple in the end. What's more, when we came in, we took a secret passage.
Rather than being Cao Cao's room, I think it's more like a trick set up by Cao Cao to avoid being disturbed at his own time. As for the secret passage, it is likely that the craftsmen who were sealed here temporarily dug an escape route.
"What do you think?" The fat man asked the other two tomb robbers.
One of the tomb robbers said, "The solution left by our ancestors is to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle. ”
The fat man nodded and said, "Then you guys try it first." ”
The so-called bottom of the kettle refers to the tiptoe of each coffin with stones, and then make a hole under the coffin. If there is a main coffin, it is easy to identify, but if there is no main coffin here, then there must be a secret passage, if the coffin cannot be lifted, then there must be a secret passage below, and you can open a thief hole.
I took on the role of a hand-in-hand and began to help carry the coffin.
These seven coffins are all sarcophagi, well kept, but they are also very heavy.
Since there were seven coffins, a seven-star array was formed, so I suggested that they not move around, otherwise they might make a mistake. They already trusted me, so they tried to balance it with the original coffin print when carrying it.
There is a thief hole in the secret passage of this secret room, which means that someone has been here before. However, we did not find any corpses in the ear chamber or the main chamber, indicating that the people who had come to rob the tomb in the past either left with a large number of artifacts and never came again. Either that or they found a way to crack it and left here.
Four of the coffins were very easy to lift, but when we carried the fifth coffin, we couldn't lift them.
For the sake of safety, we abandoned the fifth coffin and symbolically lifted the remaining two.
"Now there are two possibilities." The tomb robber who offered to draw money from the bottom of the kettle said, "The first possibility is that this sarcophagus is an entrance to another place. Of course, there is also a possibility that this sarcophagus is set up with a relatively heavy mechanism. ”
The first may be dangerous, but there is also hope. The second possibility is a complete dead end, as long as the coffin lid is opened, it will definitely be obliterated by the organs.
For a moment, all five of us were silent, expecting who would be the first to speak, but after a while, when no one spoke, the tomb robber said, "I propose to open the coffin!" ”
No one refutes, and no one agrees, in fact, I know very well that at this time, everyone wants to open the coffin, but no one says it, because the person who says it is destined to open the coffin.
It's not that I'm afraid of death, it's that I don't have experience in this area and I don't have the right to speak.
"Then let's do it!" Another tomb robber chimed in.
They came together, and they should be like Lao Hu and the fat man, and they have a little friendship.
After the five of us came to the coffin, the two tomb robbers took the lead, and the fat man Fu Wenjian and I were responsible for the behind.
The risk is very high, if it is an ordinary agency, then the two people in charge of the coffin will definitely die as soon as possible, and if it is a high-level agency, such as if there is poison gas hidden in it, then the people present will not be able to escape.
At this moment, each of us tensed our nerves, and the five of us worked together to slowly cut the coffin lid, and when the coffin lid cracked a crack, I smelled a strong smell of corpses. It means that there is a corpse inside, is this really Cao Cao's coffin?
After a while, the lid of the coffin was wide open, and the two people in front breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay! ”
We all breathed a sigh of relief, and then the five of us slowly looked inside.
Inside the sarcophagus, there was a corpse lying quietly, the corpse had decomposed and deformed, and the clothes on the body had also decayed, and it could barely be seen that it was a court dress.
"This can't really be Cao Cao, right?" A tomb robber asked.
The fat man was also puzzled: "If it's really him, then it's a little tired, right?" ”
In the entire Chun room, there are no dark weapons, although many dark weapons have been found in the ear chambers on both sides, but most of them are bottles and cans, which are not easy to carry.
"It may be that our seniors have come in and taken the contents away." Another grave robber said.
For a moment, everyone looked disappointed.
I was also a little disappointed, because Fu Wenjian once said that it was possible to find the Yin Yang Qiankun Seal here, but now I haven't even seen Mao, let alone the Yin Yang Qiankun Seal.
The fat man unwillingly turned over the corpse, and the corpse, which was already rotting, broke into small pieces under his churning, and the clothes were already torn at the touch of a button. It's a pity that after looking for a long time, I didn't find anything.
On the other side, I suddenly said, "Fatty, you have something in your hand." ”
The fat man hurriedly retracted his hand and looked at the injury, above his arm, there was a milky white worm, which looked similar to a maggot, but it was not a maggot, the maggot had no teeth, but the head of this little white worm had two front teeth, pressing the fat man's skin.
The fat man flicked it casually and directly shot the insect to the side of the ground.
Having seen the corpse turtle, I would never look down on the insects here again, and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?" ”
"It's fine." The fat man said unapprovingly.
"What should I do?" Fu Wenjian on the side asked.
I wanted to ask, too, but I didn't expect to take such a big risk, and finally found such a thing, what do you want. The worst thing is that we have come all the way and there is no going back. Leaving aside the corpse king, just the big stone gate may not be able to be pushed open, and there are still very many yin things outside. My master, Zhang Zhenren and Hei Impermanence, just captured those yin ghosts, but other kinds of yin things are still there!
"How is this possible!" The tomb robber in charge of opening the museum was a little anxious, he looked at the other coffins and said, "Why don't we open a few more coffins?" ”
His proposal was actually approved by most of us, because none of us wanted to accept that fact.
It's just that at this time, the fat man suddenly said, "No, don't open it." This sarcophagus is not dangerous, but several other sarcophagi are certainly dangerous, and don't forget, this is the Seven-Star Mystery Coffin. ”
He was the only one present who remained calm, and we all looked at him, and the fat man said, "This coffin is different from other coffins, at least we can't lift it." ”
After saying that, the fat man tossed the corpse aside and knocked on the bottom of the coffin.
The sound is muffled, which means there is no dark grid or anything like that. The fat man said unwillingly: "This is not good! There are robbery holes on it, and it stands to reason that someone has been here, even if the treasure has been stolen, even if they are connoisseurs, but why haven't we seen a single corpse after we have been in for so long? And even if they can get out, how do they get out? ”
Hearing him say this, I also woke up to the fact that I had been in a state of loss just now, but I had forgotten a few important clues. There are no corpses in this mausoleum, and the Soul Locking Array is very intact, at least until we destroy it, so how did those tomb robbers get in before?
That place in the Soul Locking Array is a mass grave! The miasma is so heavy, if people go in and don't break the formation, how can they have a chance to push open the stone gate?
When a person exerts force, his breathing will unconsciously increase. The miasma in that place was so heavy, if it weren't for us breaking the soul locking array and the miasma leaking out, we wouldn't have pushed open the stone door and entered.
"Obviously, there's a way to get out, and you don't have to go through that mass grave." Fu Wenjian said: "The news that Ben Lao Dao received is that there is a Yin and Yang Qiankun seal in it. But so far, I haven't seen the Yin and Yang Qiankun seal. Ben Lao Dao proposed that the other coffins be opened. ”
I understand Fu Wenjian's statement very well, but subconsciously, I am hostile to Fu Wenjian, and I have to be skeptical of what he says, so I asked: "There is no secret compartment in front of the coffin, what about the back?" ”
After I said this, the fat man hurriedly looked at the other end of the coffin, and instead of opening the whole coffin, we opened half of the coffin and left it half. That's what fat people they mean.
Tomb robbers are most taboo about the fruits of their labor being shared by others, for example, if they dig a robbery hole, they will cover it, and after leaving the mausoleum, they will seal the robbery hole. If there is really a secret passage in this place, even if there have been tomb robbers in the past, then when they leave, they will restore this place, and there will be no trace for later people to follow.
The fat man looked at the footsteps of the corpse, and suddenly said: "Half immortal is worthy of being half immortal, in a word." ”
I was stunned, in fact, I just wanted to refute Fu Wenjian, and I didn't want to agree with Fu Wenjian.
Looking at the legs of the corpse, I found that the upper body of the corpse was still intact when we opened the coffin lid, and the legs of the second half of life were empty and had been lost.
I didn't expect me to find such a big clue by saying it so casually. Several people were very excited, and hurriedly closed the lid of the coffin and opened it from the other side.
Tomb robbers open the lid of the coffin, usually from the head, because most of the burial goods are placed on the head, such as jade pillows.
After opening it this time, the fat man knocked on the bottom of the coffin, and everyone smiled.
Very good!
Hollow!
