The Secret Words of Immortality Chapter Seventy-Three: The Cycle of Death

"Coffins devouring people! Coffins devour! Corpse fraud! Corpse fraud! Bursts of exclamations rang out one after another in Mu Zifeng's ears.

Mu Zifeng suddenly came to his senses, and he found that it was "a little white" that fell on him. Unexpectedly, "A Little White" was born with the appearance of not waking up, but at the critical moment, he reacted so quickly, which really surprised Mu Zifeng.

At this time, the bottom of the burial pit fell into a mess, and people panicked and avoided the coffin like a plague god.

The more critical the moment, the more you must be calm and abnormal. Mu Zifeng knew this truth very well in his heart, in order to prevent any more dangerous situations, Mu Zifeng slowly straightened up from the ground, and looked at the mountain carefully.

Dashan closed his eyes tightly, drooped his head, and half sat in the coffin, wisps of black blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, and he couldn't see any anger in his body.

Obviously, the liquid that was sprayed just now was actually black blood. Black blood sprayed everywhere around the coffin, and a strong smell of blood filled the air. Mu Zifeng was glad that if it hadn't been for "a little white" to shoot in time, he would have been sprayed with black blood. It's so dangerous!

But he just pushed open the coffin lid, and Dashan sat up suddenly, becoming like this, which reminded Mu Zifeng of another thing.

I remember when he was working at the Institute of Archaeology, he once heard a rumor from Professor Cheng. It is said that in order to prevent tomb robbers from digging up the burial goods in the coffin, some ancients would not only install crossbow arrows, traps and other mechanisms, but also resort to psychological warfare to scare off tomb robbers.

For example, they will place a spring-like mechanism behind the corpse, and when the coffin is opened, the mechanism under the corpse will be triggered, and the corpse will sit up instantly, commonly known as "sitting corpse". Some tomb robbers pry open the coffin in the middle of the night, and when they see the sitting corpse, they think that they have cheated the corpse, and they will be so frightened that they will run away, and they will even be scared to death by being scared to death.

This is the wisdom of the ancients, Mu Zifeng feels that it is indeed practical in his heart. But the mountain that was still alive yesterday died in the coffin today, is there any other mystery? Could there be some mechanism? Mu Zifeng secretly speculated in his heart.

When people were frightened and moved away from danger, "Yibai" leaned fearlessly on the other coffin, without lifting his eyelids, as if he was napping.

"Alas, this guy has great powers for a while, and heaps of mud for a while!" Mu Zifeng sighed, and looked at the sitting posture of the mountain again, Mu Zifeng felt that the appearance of the mountain was like a sitting corpse pushed by the mechanism. If he really cheated the corpse, how could he still be in the coffin? I have already come out to hurt people.

"Give me all back! Give me back! While Mu Zifeng was meditating, a few crisp gunshots rang out, and the dog master angrily led his men and walked towards the coffin.

Everyone didn't dare not go, nor did they dare to go far, keeping a certain distance from the coffin containing the corpse of the mountain.

"Grandma, it's always us who pretend to be ghosts! Who has ever killed us? Give me the back! The dog master turned on the safety of the pistol with a swipe, and was about to shoot at the corpse of the mountain in the coffin.

"Dog! Don't shoot! Don't shoot! Mu Zifeng said loudly to the dog master: "You are very right, I agree very much, it is definitely not a coffin swallowing people, let alone a ghost killing!" ”

"Who are you?" The dog master was a little surprised, but stopped.

"It doesn't matter who I am, I can help you explain the situation!" Mu Zifeng replied, and without waiting for the dog master to speak, he turned back and shouted to everyone: "Brothers, don't be afraid!" Come back and give me a witness! I'm going to look in the coffin now and see if he's a human or a ghost. Let's see if he can hurt me half a point? ”

"Madman, you don't want to die!" When Mu Zifeng shouted loudly, Jia Fatzi's shout came with the wind.

"Brother Feng......" is Zhao Zichuan's voice.

Seeing that Mu Zifeng's behavior was abnormal with the others, several black silk shortcoats actually raised their rifles and prepared to shoot.

"Hey, you kid has a point!" Seeing that Mu Zifeng stood up to support his point of view, Master Dog applauded with interest: "Did you hear it, did you hear it, he was right, how can there be any coffin to swallow people?" My dog will give him a chance to run in the coffin now! ”

Several subordinates saw that the dog master praised Mu Zifeng, so they put down their rifles.

"Thank you, dog!" Mu Zifeng raised his hand with shackles, bowed his hand, pressed it sideways on the edge of the coffin, and jumped up and jumped directly into the coffin in the exclamation of everyone.

dared to jump into the coffin because Mu Zifeng knew that he was a "livestock" in the eyes of the dog master, and he was the object of their enslavement and care. The dog master and they may change their faces at any time, and they must find out the evidence that the mountain is a human killing, not a ghost in the shortest possible time.

In the coffin, there were two corpses, a sitting dead mountain, and a lying corpse that looked like a mountain ghost. Mu Zifeng's strength to jump in, stepped on a porcelain bowl, and was in a hurry, Mu Zifeng could only secretly apologize to the owner of the tomb in his heart.

Looking at the mountain up close, Mu Zifeng unexpectedly uncovered his clothes and examined them carefully. In addition to the black blood marks on the corners of the mouth, there are no obvious wounds or strangulation marks on other parts of the mountain, how did the murderer put the mountain as strong as a bear to death? In a place where the walls are impregnable, how can the mountain die so easily?

While thinking, a few corpse spots on Dashan's abdomen attracted Mu Zifeng's attention.

Because of his obsession with the study of archaeology, Mu Zifeng knew that the corpse spots were dark purple-red marks that would only appear 2 hours after the death of a person, which showed that Dashan had been dead for a long time before pushing the coffin lid. If Dashan was already a corpse at that time, how could he spurt out so much black blood?

A series of abnormal situations have appeared, indicating that it is indeed a strange thing! No wonder people suspect that coffins swallow people and ghosts kill people.

Although it is impossible to determine the cause of Dashan's death, one thing is clear, if he does not sit up by himself, then he must be under the action of the organ to sit up.

If we focus on this breakthrough point, then the problem returns to what Professor Cheng called "sitting corpse".

Could it be that there is also a mechanism under the corpse?

So, Mu Zifeng moved his gaze to the back of Dashan's corpse, he caught a glimpse of a few silk threads, and then carefully observed that Dashan's armpit was also tied with thin silk threads.

Is this it? The doubts in Mu Zifeng's heart became even heavier, the silk threads on the mountain were extremely slender, Mu Zifeng had excellent eyesight since he was a child, and he only saw the clues when he got closer.

As for the others, they were already frightened by the sitting posture of the mountain's corpse, and they dared to observe it closely. He knew that even the dog master would not study this corpse that might be a ghost, and at most burn it.

Seeing the silk thread, Mu Zifeng guessed seven or eight points in his heart, it was definitely not a ghost killing, but a human doing evil.

Upon further investigation, he found that the threads were tied to the corpse of the mountain at one end and the coffin lid at the other, and the threads were intertwined to form a special knot.

In other words, no matter which side Mu Zifeng pushed the coffin from, under the action of force, the force through the thread knot would be transmitted to the corpse and push the corpse up.

The corpse of the mountain sat up suddenly, and it was under that kind of force that the effect occurred.

So why did the people who killed the mountains create such a terrifying atmosphere? Is there some conspiracy? Although it was still foggy, Mu Zifeng didn't have time to think about these issues. After confirming that there were no other problems, he pulled off a silk thread and jumped out of the coffin again.

He walked quickly to the dog master, and whispered the situation to the dog master, after talking with the dog master for a while, Mu Zifeng understood one thing, it turned out that ten days ago, in a coffin in the burial pit, an undecayed wooden plaque was found.

It reads, "Death when the coffin is opened".

Everyone was a little surprised and even more frightened, and the leader of the black silk short coat burned the wooden sign directly in order to appease people's hearts.

But something strange happened, and the next morning, the body of the team leader was found lying in a coffin, without a single wound on his body.

It was also from that day that the death loop began. Every day a man died, some in black silk coats, some in coolies. The bodies of all the people, without exception, were found in a coffin, and no injuries were found on their bodies.

"Three people become tigers", I don't know who started the rumors, saying that it was the revenge of the owner of the tomb and let the coffin swallow people! The "coffin swallowing people" incident made the head of the region, the head of the region, very sad. He arranged for a number of people and strengthened the vigilance, but did not find the slightest trace.

After understanding what happened, Mu Zifeng had an idea in his heart, and after obtaining the consent of the dog master, he decided to tell everyone about the sitting corpse.

"Everyone, everyone......" Mu Zifeng said calmly: "I went to inspect it just now, the mountain is indeed dead, but it is not a ghost killing!" ”

"You...... What proof do you take? I don't know who shouted in the crowd.

"Of course it's this line!" Mu Zifeng lifted a silk thread, and everyone was far away, but they couldn't see half of it?

"You can't see it, but let me tell you!" Mu Zifeng explained: "There are several such silk threads tied to Dashan's body and coffin lid, although this silk thread is extremely slender and difficult to find with the naked eye, but it is extremely tough. When I opened the coffin, the silk thread was pulled, and the body of the mountain was naturally pulled up. ”

The dog nodded appreciatively and applauded again.

"It seems to you that the mountain is sitting up." Mu Zifeng sighed and said: "So, on the corpse of Dashan, someone must have done something to do it, so since it was done by a person, the killing will naturally not be a coffin ghost or the like." This is just a trick, don't be deceived! ”

Everyone listened in disbelief, and I don't know who took the lead and shouted: "As long as you don't die tonight, we will believe it!" The crowd shouted.

"Okay, then I'll do what you say!" Mu Zifeng announced a crazy and bold decision, and he said firmly: "I will stay alone in the burial pit for the night tonight!" Premise you get back to your place now and get back to work! ”
