Volume 1 The Ruins of the Immortal Mountain Chapter 53 The Coffin

"The rocks in this cave are all sedimentary rocks, and looking at the traces on these rocks, they should be formed by water flow, and the cave mechanism is very stable." Wei Peng carefully observed the cave wall and said, "There is enough space here, the ventilation is good, and there are many animals and plants in the mountain, so it should not be a problem to provide food, so it is normal for someone to live in the cave." ”

Xu Yunshu looked around and agreed with Wei Peng's statement, but also raised questions: "This is located in a valley, the terrain is low-lying, and the rain is abundant, once it rains, there will definitely be flash floods in the valley once it rains......"

"Although this is a valley, don't forget that we climbed up the mountain wall to enter, and since we entered this valley all the way up, even if there is a flash flood, it will be discharged into the mountain along the entrance and exit of the mountain wall." Wei Peng explained with a smile.

Over there, Xu Yunshu and others were conducting professional investigations, but Tanzi and I were frowning and studying the map left by our glasses. Since the map had no further route after reaching this hole, Tanzi and I hoped to find some other clues from the map.

"Ah~~" Suddenly, Zeng Xiaomi let out a scream. We heard the screams and rushed towards her. I saw her pointing to the depths of the cave, trembling and saying, "There...... There...... It seems that there is a coffin......"

We looked in the direction pointed by Zeng Xiaomi, and saw something faintly in front of the dark in the middle of the road, which really looked like a coffin. We looked closer, and sure enough, there was a stone platform where we had to go deeper into the cave, and a wooden coffin was placed on the platform. On the ground around the stone platform, there are several stone pillars more than one meter high and the thickness of the bowl. At the top of each pillar is a skull.

In this dark cave, I suddenly saw a few skulls, which was indeed very terrifying. Fortunately, Tan Zi and I have seen the "world", and a few skeletons are not afraid; Xu Yunshu and Wei Peng are archaeology students, and they occasionally saw this kind of thing during their internships; In order to explore the cause of death of the glasses, Xiao Ai has no fear of the sword mountain and the sea of fire, not to mention a few human skulls; Hua Tianyu is a man, and he can finally calm down, only Zeng Xiaomi felt special fear after seeing these in front of him: "This ...... How can there be a coffin again...... There are skeletons again...... What the hell is this place? ”

Xu Yunshu comforted Zeng Xiaomi and said, "Don't be afraid of Xiaomi, since you have seen the coffin, what is the surprise of seeing the skeleton?" You're really timid, don't worry! ”

Wei Peng also said loudly: "Yes, coffins are used to bury the dead, and people will become skeletons after a long time of death, it's not a big deal, it's good to see too much." ”

I looked at the coffin and the skeleton outside a few more times and said, "There is really no need to make a fuss about the dead people in the coffin, but unfortunately, there are no dead people in this coffin." ”

Xu Yunshu glanced at me: "How do you know?" ”

Zeng Xiaomi also asked: "That's it, how do you know?" There are so many skeletons on the outside of this coffin, let alone inside the coffin? After the enlightenment of Xu Yunshu and Wei Peng, coupled with the fact that there were so many of us next to her, Zeng Xiaomi's mood gradually stabilized, and her voice no longer trembled.

I pouted my lips and raised my hand and said, "I just know, if you don't believe it, open the coffin and take a look!" ”

"Humph! If you don't say it, don't say it, who is rare? Xu Yunshu glared at me, and then called Wei Peng and Hua Tianyu to come forward to help. Zeng Xiaomi also wanted to go over and have a look, but she was still a little scared of the coffin and the skeleton, and finally stood with the three of us in the altar and watched them work.

I don't know when the coffin is, but it is certain that it is definitely several years old, and it is very rare that it has not rotted for many years. The patina attached to the coffin had obscured the entire coffin.

Xu Yunshu walked to the coffin and did not immediately open the coffin lid, but shone a flashlight on the coffin, trying to find clues on the coffin. Suddenly, Xu Yunshu asked Wei Peng to hold her flashlight, and she took out a small shovel and gently scraped the moss on the coffin, moving gently, as if she was stroking, for fear of scratching the coffin with too much force.

After a while, the moss was scraped off, and the original appearance of the coffin could barely be seen. The body of this wooden coffin is not a blank slate, but the lid and sides of the coffin are engraved with patterned patterns. Xu Yunshu and the other three carefully identified it and found that the pattern on the coffin was nine lotus flowers, each of which was divided into nine petals and stretched outward, as if to show people the vitality of the peak of its life.

Listening to Xu Yunshu and the others talking to each other there, we could only hear words such as "lotus" and "petal" intermittently, and it was obvious that they seemed to have found something. Tanzi and I also approached with curiosity, leaving only Zeng Xiaomi, who didn't dare to approach, and Xiao Ai, who accompanied her, in place.

As soon as we walked over, we saw the pattern of the Nine Nine Lotus Blossoms on the coffin. With just a glance, I could already see it. Then I turned around and walked back to the "playground" without saying a word, not even paying attention to the calls of Xiao Ai and Zeng Xiaomi, because I wanted to think about something, something that I had experienced but wanted to deliberately forget......

Later, Xu Yunshu and the others opened the lid of the coffin, and sure enough, as I expected, the coffin was empty, and there was nothing. This made Xu Yunshu and others feel very disappointed and strange. To their disappointment, there was nothing to be found here but this coffin; And the strange thing is why I know that the coffin is empty.

It was getting late that day, and we decided to set up camp on the "playground". The jar and I were in charge of finding some wood that was a little drier to use for a while. Due to the light rain just now, everyone's clothes were wet, Hua Tianyu and Wei Peng, the two big men, had no scruples, took off their clothes and hung them at the entrance of the cave, and then set up a tent shirtless. But it was not so convenient for the lesbians, who had to pitch their tents first and then change their clothes.

Because the place he had just chosen was facing the tuyere, Wei Peng dragged the half-propped tent to the cave, intending to change places, but accidentally bumped into Zeng Xiaomi's luggage backpack. Zeng Xiaomi said: "I'll move the backpack first, and you can drag it later." At this time, just in time for me and Tanzi to come back from collecting firewood, I heard what Zeng Xiaomi said, and then saw Wei Peng, who was only wearing a pair of big pants, Tanzi smiled and said: "Brother, everyone Xiaomi told you to take it off later, and then take it off later, you are too anxious, right?" Then he saw the semi-finished tent in Wei Peng's hand, and without waiting for Wei Peng and Zeng Xiaomi to explain, the altar continued: "You haven't even set up a tent yet, why are you in a hurry to take off your clothes?" ”

"No, no......" Wei Peng was anxious to explain, but the altar didn't give him a chance to explain, patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Brother, sharpen the knife and don't cut wood, so many people here still set up the tent!" ”

"Brother Zhou, you misunderstood, not what you think?" Zeng Xiaomi explained with a red face.

The jar smiled evilly: "What do I think?" Rest assured, rest assured, I won't talk nonsense! ”

Zeng Xiaomi blushed and bowed her head and said, "You guys are so dirty!" ”
