"Daochang Chen, this is not a zombie." Uncle Wang, who was the first to walk to the coffin, spoke, with a surprised expression on his face.

"Impossible, right?" Chen Jixian also stood by the coffin with a shocked face, unable to believe his eyes.

Qi Lu came over when he heard this, and saw that the thing in the sarcophagus was not a human corpse, but the corpse of a strange animal.

It appears to be some kind of giant insect that has been extinct since ancient times, about the size of a baby on the full moon, like a turtle, but with only three legs. The body is covered in a hard shell like a crab, with two long horns on its head and a scissor-shaped fish-like tail at the end of its body.

Underneath the corpse was a translucent black liquid, submerging half of the corpse's body, and those with good eyesight could vaguely see a thick layer of sand at the bottom of the black water.

"What's this weird thing?" Chen Jixian was stunned, he didn't expect that after more than 20 years of chasing demons and killing ghosts, he would actually dig up such a monster today.

No one could answer his question, because everyone present had seen such a strange insect for the first time in their lives.

Everyone thinks that this strange insect is far more terrifying than some evil ghosts, zombies and the like, because everyone is mentally prepared for those things, but they never thought that there would be such a monster under the locust tree anyway.

Zhang Shifan also came to his senses at this time, he leaned over and asked Chen Jixian: "Master Chen, what the fuck is this?" I think it's very similar to the trilobite introduced by experts in the science and education channel, could it be that it has cultivated into a zombie? ”

Chen Jixian hesitated and said, "Don't talk nonsense, trilobites have such a hard shell." Besides, only humans can evolve into zombies, and animals don't have the ability to do this. This coffin is so weird that I can't tell what kind of monster it is. But I'm sure it's this dead body that's the culprit behind letting the corpses of your funeral parlor run around. Chen Jixian paused for a moment, and then asked the people behind him: "Which of you can see the fame of this sarcophagus?" ”

Qi Lu had been taking pictures of the sarcophagus with his mobile phone just now, and when he heard Chen Jixian's question, he put the mobile phone back in his pocket and said: "Judging from the fact that the material of the unearthed green dragon and white tiger and other spiritual artifacts is bronze, this ghost tomb has a history of 2,000 years. ”

"Well, Xiao Qi, you're right, can you infer it more accurately?" Chen Jixian nodded frequently, and began to look at Qi Lu a little differently.

"The coffin first appeared in China in the Yin Shang dynasty, but it was not until the Zhou Dynasty that people added decoration and painting to the coffin. Then in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, thin burials became popular. It is said that the tomb that Confucius buried with his parents was only a simple funeral such as "sealing it and burying four feet", which also shows from the side that in the era in which he lived, because of the princes' competition for power, the world was in turmoil, resulting in not many ordinary people daring to carry out thick burials. Qi Lu said: "If you look at this sarcophagus again, there are no burial goods in it, although the pattern on the coffin is not clear, but it can still be roughly judged to be the painting style of the Spring and Autumn Period, so I think the time of burial should be the end of the Spring and Autumn Period." ”

"I didn't expect Xiao Qi that you are very knowledgeable, which famous university did you graduate from?"

Qi Lu smiled embarrassedly when he saw Chen Jixian praising him, "Alas, as soon as I studied in social college, I used to know friends who resold antiques, so I learned something from him." ”

Zhang Shifan asked hesitantly: "Master, is it possible that this is just the remains of ancient creatures, not some monsters or zombies?" ”

"Have you ever seen a wreck that has been soaked in water for thousands of years without decaying?"

Chen Jixian's words were to the point, and Zhang Shifan couldn't find a suitable reason to refute for a while, so he had to mutter: "But it's not the zombie you started talking about." ”

"It's true that I'm looking away." Chen Jixian didn't hide his mistakes, "But it's the culprit of the haunting in your funeral home." ”

Qi Lu also had a lot of questions, he asked Chen Jixian: "This thing is a dead one, even if it is a wronged soul, it will not have such great ability, right?" ”

"Don't underestimate this guy." Chen Jixian pointed to the sarcophagus and said: "It has worked hard to set up this four-phase ghost nightmare bureau, using the locust tree and the ghost lingzhi to absorb yin qi for it to increase energy, even if it only improves a little bit of cultivation every year, it can accumulate a lot in two thousand years, which is not comparable to ordinary monsters." ”

"But it's dead, how the hell is this game?" Zhang Shifan then asked.

"I don't know about this, maybe someone helped it at that time."

Qi Lu sighed: "The age is too far away, and we may never know the truth at that time." ”

Zhang Shifan asked again: "What is the purpose of doing this?" ”

Chen Jixian replied in a deep voice: "Borrow the corpse to return the soul!" It wanted to resurrect itself after cultivating to a certain extent, so it carefully preserved its corpse. ”

Everyone felt that what he said was reasonable, and after listening to it, they were all convinced, and the doubts in their hearts were swept away.

Zhang Shifan was a little scared, he pulled Chen Jixian's sleeve and said, "Then trouble the master to destroy it now." ”

"It's very easy, anyone present can do it."

"How?"

"Just take the remains out of the coffin and throw them into the fire and burn them."

"It's that simple!" Zhang Shifan couldn't help but regret a little, he knew that this was the case, he could do it, so why bother asking Chen Ji to come first to subdue demons and eliminate ghosts. However, he was relieved when he thought about it, because without Chen Jixian, he wouldn't even be able to find this demon tomb, let alone destroy it.

Chen Jixian asked, "Which of you took it out?" ”

Although it was just a corpse, everyone had experienced a series of supernatural events, and they were a little afraid to think about it, and at the same time, they were worried that something contaminated with bad luck would be unlucky, so everyone hesitated and did not act.

"Looks like I'm going to figure it out myself." Chen Jixian took off his coat and prepared to do it himself.

"Wait!" Qi Lu stopped Chen Jixian with a grin, "Why bother Daochang Chen with this kind of rough work, let me come." ”

"It's fine." Chen Ji saw that Qi Lu had also developed his courage after a few days of training, so he nodded in agreement.

"But will this youkai be willing to be at our mercy?" Qi Lu was still a little uneasy.

"It's just a ghost now, and now that there is sunshine to calm its yin energy, it can't harm people, so you can do it boldly."

Qi Lu then rolled up his sleeves and fished the disgusting corpse out of the sarcophagus, and his hands were covered with black liquid.

The corpses crackled in the fire, and the shells began to turn black and charred. I don't know what's going on, Qi Lu always feels that this time the demon removal is too smooth, even if the corpse of this monster struggles in the fire a few times, or screams a few times, or has some supernatural phenomena, Qi Lu's heart will be a little more steady. But until the corpse was burned to ashes, nothing unusual happened, and Qi Lu always had a feeling of uneasiness lingering in his mind.

"The monster has been removed, so everyone can rest in peace." Chen Jixian smiled and gave everyone a hand purification charm to dispel evil spirits.

Zhang Shifan asked him: "What to do with the coffin and the locust tree?" ”

"The locust trees were chopped into firewood and all burned; The sarcophagus was smashed and refilled back into the pit. ”

"Good, good!" Zhang Shifan hurriedly agreed, and turned around to arrange for Qi Lu and the security guards to deal with these things.

"Director Zhang, if it's okay, I'll go back first." Chen Jixian said goodbye to Zhang Shifan.

"Thank you so much today, Lao Wang, you sent the master for me."

Chen Jixian smiled and said: "About the remuneration......."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Shifan replied with a smile: "Don't worry, master, tomorrow I will ask Xiaoding to transfer the money to your account." ”

Chen Jixian was about to leave, but Zhang Shifan grabbed him a little uneasily, "Master, if there is another haunted ...... in the hall"

"Take people's money and eliminate disasters for others. If there are any other events like this in the near future, I will be on call. Chen Ji glanced at Curator Zhang first, and said meaningfully: "Curator, please rest assured, if the demon removal is not exhausted, I will return the remuneration in full." ”

"How's that going to work! This is what the master deserves. Chen Jixian's words were no less than giving Zhang Shifan a reassuring pill, and before leaving, he asked Lao Wang to bring two bottles of Moutai wine to Chen Jixian.
