The coffin flows down the river......

Xu Lang frowned slightly, at this time, the coffin was only about ten meters away from them, and he was already able to see its whole picture clearly.

It was an empty coffin!

The lid of the coffin is gone, but the surface of the black lines is very smooth, and it looks like it has not been buried for a long time.

Inside the coffin, it was completely filled with water, Xu Lang took a look, it was dark inside, and he didn't know what was hidden under the dirty water.

It seems to be a water weed, and it seems to be some kind of water tour, wriggling inside the coffin, which makes people physically uncomfortable at a glance.

Huang Hui was originally squatting by the stream drinking water, and suddenly such a thing floated down the river, she looked at the handful of water in her hand, and her mother spilled it out, took two steps back, and kept retching.

Gu Chunxia watched the coffin get closer and closer, and she also took two steps back with a bad face, supporting Huang Hui.

Xu Lang didn't feel anything unusual, he had experienced too many things like this, and a mere coffin couldn't scare him, and then he bowed to the nameless.

Nameless nodded his head and rushed into the stream vigorously, although the current was relatively turbulent, but after all, it was just a small stream, Nameless was standing on a very steady footing, and when he came closer, he grabbed the coffin board and threw it behind him.

The coffin followed the flow of water, and rowed in the direction of Xu Lang, the force used by the nameless was very exquisite, and when it arrived in front of Xu Lang, the force had been unloaded, Xu Lang stopped lightly, and the coffin stopped.

Xu Lang pulled the coffin to the shore, although the weight of this coffin is not large, but after being soaked in the water, it is about twenty catties.

Xu Lang buckled the coffin, and suddenly the dirty water contained in it suddenly flowed out of the bottom of the coffin, and when it was opened again, a large handful of pale green aquatic plants and a frog jumped twice from the ground and fled in a hurry.

When Xu Lang saw this, he frowned slightly, then took out a knife and carefully looked at the "water weed", and his doubts were even more serious.

Nameless came close at this time, "What did you find?" ”

Xu Lang took the dagger back into the scabbard and said slowly: "It turned out to be a straw!" ”

"Straw again?"

"Yes, straw again!"

Not long ago, Xu Lang had already concluded that straw had extremely important symbolic significance for Peach Blossom Village, and at this time, a mutilated coffin of unknown origin contained a large piece of straw.

Then it is obvious that this coffin is from Peach Blossom Village!

Nameless crouched on the ground, looking at the filthy piece of filth, and looked carefully.

"Why don't you see the bones?"

Xu Lang shook his head: "This coffin is likely to come from Peach Blossom Village, or it may be because of yesterday's heavy rain, it was washed away, and it went downstream, and the things inside, including the coffin lid or something, should have been destroyed and lost." ”

Then he pointed to both sides of the coffin: "You see, there are traces of rivets here, and only coffin nails will use nails of such length, this kind of hole, other nails will not be used."

Secondly, this coffin should be made of peach wood, the workmanship is extremely exquisite, you see the corners of this coffin, tightly fitted, without edges and seams, there are only a few traces of fresh impact on the whole body, and there is absolutely no flaw in itself.

You look at the bottom of the coffin, here there is about 1.6 to 1.65 meters, and the upper mouth has 1.7 to 1.75 meters! This is unreasonable! ”

Nameless and the surrounding Rong Chuan and others listened to the clouds and mountains and mist, and Xu Lang's words that he knew the coffin very well made them very stunned. After all, it is difficult for ordinary people to have access to coffins, and even now that a family member has died, cremation is popular.

Nameless shook his head and said, "I don't know much about traditional funeral culture, so you can just say it." ”

Xu Lang circled around the coffin, pushed his glasses, and said: "There are four rules for making coffins in ancient China, that is, 'seven feet three bury the world', that is to say, all coffins must be two meters four in length, and the space inside is about one meter to one meter nine relative to modern people.

This can be applied to almost all types of coffins, but this coffin is obviously one size smaller than the normal size!

However, from what I said before, the role and materials of this coffin are flawless, it can be said that it is improving, why did it go wrong in terms of size? ”

Nameless nodded thoughtfully, "Then you mean ......"

Xu Lang said firmly: "This coffin is made for someone!" And there is a high probability that Peach Blossom Village is a village that attaches great importance to funeral rituals, and they will tailor coffins for the dead.

They take death many times more seriously than outsiders! ”

Nameless and Rong Chuan glanced at each other, Xu Lang's words were reasonable and well-founded, and the analysis was also very logical.

But before Xu Lang's words were finished, he immediately patted the coffin board, "This coffin is made of willow wood, do you know what it means?" ”

Nameless subconsciously asked, "What?" ”

"Peach wood, the wood of driving away evil spirits and avoiding disasters, there is a legend of peach wood fighting ghosts in ancient times, but this kind of wood is by no means a good material for making coffins, the people of Peach Blossom Village attach so much importance to funeral ceremonies, but they chose a wood that does not meet the coffin.

That is to say...... The people of Peach Blossom Village already know about the existence of evil spirits, and it is likely that the years are very long, and over time, even for burial, they have chosen alternative wood! ”

Nameless suddenly realized, looking at this coffin, he didn't expect that a simple coffin could be analyzed by Xu Lang to find so many clues.

He was a little incredulous, looked at Xu Lang and asked, "How do you know so much about coffins." ”

This sentence is also what other people want to ask, after all, ordinary people rarely come into contact with these things in their lives, and when they heard what Xu Lang said, they couldn't help but have some doubts.

John, in particular, was a foreigner himself, and was even more interested in this kind of thing, and he didn't even know about it.

Xu Lang smiled and said: "After I received the mission, I had already guessed that this mission was related to the dead and related to the Peach Blossom Spring, so the dead and the burial may be related, so I have been looking at the relevant information on the plane, which can be regarded as a temporary cramming." ”

When Rong Chuan heard this, he swallowed his saliva, he had such a strong logical reasoning ability, just after receiving the task, he realized that the information related to this task was related to it, and he studied temporarily, and he could actually learn and use it lively.

Such a powerful mind, the top wise man in the newspaper is really worthy of his reputation.

Xu Lang continued: "Then looking at it now, the people of Peach Blossom Village can live with evil spirits for so many years, and they are still not dead, which shows that they have a means to fight against evil spirits, as long as we master this means, then the task of surviving for three days is likely to be completed!"

The direction of life has been pointed out for us! After we arrive at Taohua Village, we must be cautious in our words and deeds, pay attention to the living habits of the villagers, and special actions, and strive to complete the task ahead of schedule! ”

I have to say that through a simple coffin, you can find the direction of life, which is already an extremely remarkable achievement.

Even Xu Lang himself felt that it was very wonderful, it may be that the tasks he has experienced recently are too profound and complicated, and this ordinary level task is a respite for him.

Rong Chuan, John and others, hearing Xu Lang's words, can say that the originally low morale has finally risen a little.

Even Huang Hui had a hint of a smile.

Xu Lang is in a very good mood, because from now on, the main quest has developed a little, and there is no possibility of traps, which means that all his conjectures until now still have a high chance of being true.

Xu Lang waved his hand and said to everyone: "It's now more than three o'clock in the afternoon, let's hurry into Peach Blossom Village, and we must arrive before eight o'clock!" ”

Everyone nodded, but they didn't rub it, after all, if it was more than eight o'clock, they would all die for violating the rules of the mission.

Several people began to move upstream without stopping.

After walking for more than an hour, Xu Lang and the others came to a valley mouth, and Nameless stood on a stone platform and looked into the distance.

said to everyone: "The scene around here is not much different from what the driver said at the beginning, and there are large pieces of gravel scattered at the valley mouth in front, presumably yesterday's heavy rain, which has exposed the valley mouth!" ”

Xu Lang was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly waved his hand, "Let's enter the valley!" ”

Taniguchi is a narrow gourd mouth, and the stream flows out of the mouth, like an upside-down gourd pouring water.

Xu Lang looked at it, and couldn't help but sigh at the magic of nature, everyone came to the valley mouth and changed to a straight line formation, because the intersection in front of them was very narrow and could only accommodate one person to pass.

The stream had reached this point, and the current was already very gentle, but it only overflowed the ankles of everyone, and the nameless head was fighting.

The scene ahead was a little dark, and the nameless night eyes helped a lot, leading everyone through the valley with great difficulty.

Behind Taniguchi, there is a large peach blossom forest, and the pink peach blossoms are in full bloom this season, and the birds are chirping everywhere, which makes people feel refreshed at a glance.

And the expression on Xu Lang's face at this time began to become extremely cold, because he knew that the task at this time was about to officially begin.

The strangeness of Peach Blossom Village will be completely revealed, and the evil spirits they will face this time will also appear.

Xu Lang looked at his watch, it was already seven o'clock in the evening, and they arrived an hour early.

Xu Lang had guessed before that if the task gave the time of eight o'clock in the evening so accurately, it was likely that something more special or important would happen in Peach Blossom Village at eight o'clock.

And the executors must be involved.

At this time, he finally arrived at Peach Blossom Village, looking at the quiet and peaceful scene in front of him, Xu Lang's heart was not shocked, because he knew that the people of Peach Blossom Village must have known their arrival.

This is also what they are looking forward to, Chen Wenjin and the old lady used various means to guide them in.

And at this time, Xu Lang is here!
