Chapter 328: Floating Coffin Forest
In fact, for most people, there are no permanent friends in this world, and the reason for getting together is just that there are temporary or long-term interests tied to each other.
Although the fat man and I are not famous factions, we are definitely good people, and they say that they are thieves even if they break the sky! How can I make friends with these chickens and dogs?!
Compression clothes nodded, and said that we will meet fate, he Lu is by no means a person who forgets his righteousness when he sees money, according to the rules of the rivers and lakes, if there is a harvest on this trip, the money obtained must be distributed to us!
"That's right! Seeing each other is a friend, and the most important word we go to the rivers and lakes! The mouse twisted a few mustaches around his mouth, and a pair of eyeballs rolled around.
I couldn't help sneering to myself, saying in my heart that a thief is a thief, and a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, even if you give us this kind of wealth that damages yin and morality, you can't look down on it.
But he sold personal favors, saying that we understood the kindness of Brother Lu and Brother Ma, but we cultivators also have rules, and we made a wish in the portrait of the ancestor before this trip, since we are here to find someone, we can't take any money.
The compression suit and the mouse looked at each other, and seemed a little dazed for a while, not knowing whether what we said was true or false, but their faces couldn't help but be filled with joy.
I asked the two of them why they came out of that well, and if the entrance was the Ximen Night Market in Quancheng? In addition, since he is here to touch gold, what kind of tomb is this tomb?
Compression Yi nodded, saying that they had indeed entered here from a remote ancient well near the night market at the West Gate of Quancheng.
But as for whose tomb this tomb is, frankly they don't know. This operation was based on rumors, and the result of a mistake after inquiring about the trend of the crypt. However, judging from the scale of the tomb, the people in the tomb are either rich or noble.
His tone was sincere, not like a lie. Besides, we have made it clear that we don't want money, and there is no conflict of interest with the two of us, so I believe he will not be guilty of lying to us again.
It seems that my previous analysis is really good, this place is indeed extended in all directions, and there are secret passages all over the province, which is really scary. It is also unknown whether these tunnels were formed naturally or were mined by others.
Everyone walked out of the muddy pond under their feet and rested. I also found an opportunity to briefly explain the matter of burning the Yin Skin Talisman in the hall just now to the fat man, He Xiaoqi, and Xiao Jun.
In addition to two mountain machetes and a dyed ink rope tied to stainless steel yin and yang claws, there are also some glutinous rice, black donkey hooves and other fragments.
The sun is very big, and the light is strong, and in a short time, people sweat all over their bodies.
We walked up the stone steps, and although the steps under our feet were solid and wide, the height was inexplicably steep, which reminded me of the scene when I followed Master to climb Mount Tai at night.
After walking up for more than 20 minutes, the road suddenly tightened, and each stone step under his feet became only about half a meter wide and two meters long. On either side of us, there are creepy scenes.
I saw that on the stone walls on both sides, coffins began to appear one after another, standing on both sides of the stone steps under everyone's feet!
These coffins seemed to float and stand in the air, dark and light in color, of different sizes and densely arranged, and suddenly looked like a bare mountain forest, continuous upwards with no end in sight.
Generally speaking, coffins are laid horizontally on the ground. But the coffins in front of them were erected without exception, the coffin lid was firmly nailed outward, and the bottom of the coffin, which should have been placed on the ground, was fixed to the stone wall with unknown tools.
There was not a trace of wind, and under the scorching sun, these coffins exuded a strange luster all around, and the hot sky actually made people feel cold out of thin air.
In the air, the smell of smoke and fire filled the air, as if it was wafting out of the coffins.
I chuckled in my heart, because when I burned those yin skin talismans just now, I basically understood in my heart that this smoky smell of fire was eighty percent emitted by the burning of human skin, so I was inevitably nervous in my heart.
Just as he was about to remind everyone to leave, the compressed clothes and the rat seemed to have found an oasis, and hurriedly walked down the stone steps to see the coffin forest.
Yes, for Tufuzi, the coffin is what they want to see the most. The reason why there is the word "touching gold" is also said to come from the phrase "go over the mountain to find the dragon's lair, and hide it in the gold and silver coffin".
Looking at this dense coffin forest, both of them had a green light in their eyes, and at that moment, they seemed to have forgotten our existence.
They looked at it for a long time, discussed it in a low voice, and finally came to a large coffin that was more than two meters tall and completely black. Look at that posture, the compression clothes and rats are ready to open the coffin and touch the gold.
I knew that this thing couldn't be stopped, and I had been friends with the two of them before, and it wouldn't be good if I left at the moment, so I hurriedly glanced at everyone, and asked He Xiaoqi and Xiao Jun to stand behind me and the fat man, and waited for them.
There may be gold and silver in the coffin, and it is more likely that something deadly is hidden!
Compression clothes and rats have been immersed in silver in this industry for a long time, and soon showed extremely professional "industry skills".
I saw that the mouse glanced at us standing far away, hugged his fist, and said in his mouth: "The little brother is ugly!" ”
Then, he took out a stick of white ash and lit it, and then erected the white wax on the stone steps in the southeast corner of the coffin, according to the orientation of the large black coffin.
Master once told me that the white wax of Tufuzi is called "lighting the lamp".
According to the mantra of touching gold that has been handed down from generation to generation, there is a saying that "people light candles, blow out the lamps, and survey the public to look for the stars", which is also simply passed down as "the rooster cries and the lamp is extinguished and does not touch the gold".
It is said that if the candle is extinguished during the process of opening the coffin, no matter how much gold and silver treasure there is in the coffin, it must be put back in its original place, otherwise it will be killed.
"Lighting the lamp" is regarded as a rule left by the ancestors of this industry, or more mysterious, but an unwritten contract between the living and the dead, and I don't know whether it is true or not.
After lighting the ash in the southeast corner, the compression suit and the mouse knelt on their knees, respectfully kowtowed to the black coffin three times, and landed soundly.
Kowtow is also called "please coffin", which means to inform the unjust soul or evil thing in the coffin that he is just here to ask for money, and he does not have the idea of moving the bones in vain, and it is an unintentional fault to offend.
At this time, if there is a noise in the coffin, the Tufu will stop and dare not fight the idea of this coffin again, which is regarded as a warning.
The compression suit and the mouse waited quietly for a while, and when he saw that there was no movement in the coffin, he turned his head to look at the white ash that was lit, and the flame didn't jump a bit, so he was relieved, stood up and prepared to open the coffin.
At this moment, the two did not know that a bad luck was coming silently......
