Chapter 1079: The Man in the Sarcophagus
After that, he didn't bother to talk to this complicated woman, waved his hand and motioned for her to stand aside, and then lowered his head to carefully observe the situation inside the stone platform.
In fact, Bai Ling's reaction just now was really a bit excessive, this stone platform, by the way, should be able to confirm that there is indeed a corpse lying in the coffin, but this corpse is tightly wrapped in a layer of gray linen cloth, except that it can be roughly seen that this is a person, it is not scary at all.
This should be the first 'person' they have encountered since they entered the city, but this 'person' is now completely dead, after all, anyone who is locked in such a tightly sealed sarcophagus will not survive for half a day, let alone they don't even know when this guy was put in.
Carefully touching the gap left around this corpse, Lin Cheng could only pout in disappointment in the end, and secretly said that these people are really, just look at the corridor carved with exquisite murals outside and this extremely wide hall, you can know that the guy lying here is definitely not an ordinary person, and it may even be a role such as a king, but such a high-ranking person does not even have a funeral item, which makes Lin Cheng, who wants to act as a captain on a whim, very disappointed.
He was disappointed that not only could he not get over the addiction of tomb robbing, but also because if he couldn't find the funeral goods, he wouldn't be able to investigate who the guy lying here was.
With a black face and no death, Lin Cheng, who still found nothing, could only give up and focus on the only corpse in this sarcophagus.
The size of this corpse is at least more than two meters high, if you stand up, I am afraid that the top of Lin Cheng's head will not reach the shoulders of others, and although it is wrapped in a thick gray cloth, Lin Cheng can still see that this corpse is extremely burly before his death, no wonder Lin Cheng didn't see what this was when he didn't open the sarcophagus at first, he had seen a lot of coffins, but he had never seen a sarcophagus as big as it was and had such a peculiar shape.
Holding his chin and pondering for a while, Lin Cheng nodded slightly, pulled out the black jade dagger from his waist, and was about to stab at this corpse!
"What are you doing?!"
Bai Ling, who was originally hiding far away, suddenly rushed up after seeing Lin Cheng's actions, grabbed his wrist and said in a solemn voice: "We haven't even figured out where this place is now, if you move at the corpse so rashly, once something goes wrong, we won't even have a place to escape!" β
"So what do you say?"
The wrist was grabbed by Bai Ling, and it was impossible for Lin Cheng to do it again, so he turned his head to her helplessly and asked.
"I ......"
Being asked by Lin Cheng like this, Bai Ling was suddenly dumbfounded, she just subconsciously felt that it was a very dangerous thing to move this corpse rashly, but just like Lin Cheng said, in such a hall where nothing existed except this corpse, what else could they do besides looking for clues on the corpse?
"Hey......"
Seeing Bai Ling's dazed face, Lin Cheng couldn't help but sigh lightly and said, "I know what you're worried about, and to be honest, I'm willing to trust your instincts, who made you the one who was here in the first place?" But you have also seen the current situation, the empty city above, and the empty tomb below, we searched for two days but didn't find a single hair, and now we finally found such a clue that is not a clue, can we only start from him? β
"This ......"
Listening to Lin Cheng's patient analysis, Bai Ling was gradually persuaded by him, but the trace of worry in his heart could not be removed, and his little face became extremely entangled, nodding his head, shaking his head.
Bai Ling was entangled here, but Lin Cheng couldn't wait for her to make a decision, and didn't care about her, Lin Cheng tightened the dagger in his hand, looked down at the corpse's chest, and then the dagger stabbed downward, and instantly stabbed into the corpse's chest!
"You ββ!"
Seeing that Lin Cheng did it without warning, Bai Lingliu raised his eyebrows and was about to reprimand, but thinking of what Lin Cheng said just now, he didn't know what to say next, so he could only wave his hand helplessly, signaling Lin Cheng to do whatever he wanted.
And Lin Cheng's side naturally didn't care about her attitude, the clue was in front of him, at this time, even if the Heavenly King Lao Tzu came, he had to make this move, how could he give up because of Bai Ling's words?
After inserting the dagger into the corpse's chest, Lin Cheng's wrist moved, controlling the dagger to slowly cut downward, although his action just now seemed extremely fast, but it was extremely measured, the dagger did not touch the skin of the corpse under the gray cloth at all, and it had stopped at a distance of less than a millimeter from the deity, and at this time, it was sliding down extremely steadily under Lin Cheng's control.
"Torahβ"
A moment later, with a sound of cloth tearing, the cloth on the corpse instantly broke open and scattered to both sides, exposing the corpse itself completely in front of Lin Cheng.
"It's ......"
And Lin Cheng was momentarily stunned when he saw the corpse itself, in his previous imagination, the situation of this corpse may be very intact, maybe it has turned into a piece of dust, but he never imagined that this corpse was as if he had just closed his eyes and was put into the sarcophagus, even if it was wrapped in the gray cloth and sarcophagus outside for countless years, there was no trace of the passage of time!
This corpse is a man who looks to be in his thirties and forties, the man's eyes are closed, his two sword eyebrows are raised, and his face looks slightly ruddy, he can definitely be regarded as a handsome young and middle-aged man.
This man looked as if he was asleep at this time, and no one could treat him as a corpse, if it weren't for the fact that his chest didn't rise and fall for a minute, even Lin Cheng, the person who single-handedly freed him from the gray cloth entanglement, might have thought he was just asleep.
"You...... Come and have a look. β
After scanning the other party's face countless times with a locked brow, after confirming that the other party was really just a corpse, Lin Cheng couldn't help but sigh and beckoned to Bai Ling in the distance.
"Me?"
Hearing Lin Cheng's greeting, Bai Ling, who was biting his fingers and nervous, hurriedly got up, and saw that Lin Cheng was waving at him, so he asked with a puzzled face while slowly approaching.
"Is there a third living person in this room besides you and me?"
Seeing the virtue of this white soul, Lin Cheng couldn't help but stab her, and after the other party came over, he pointed to the man lying in the sarcophagus and said to her: "Oh, take a good look, this guy is likely to be your clansman!" β
