Chapter 25: Suppression
Fu Xiao's frightened screams were particularly permeating in this empty tomb.
"How can there be footprints? It's completely closed, and I opened the first door just now, right? ”
Bai Yuxuan smiled a little stiffly.
"Absolutely true, I can't be mistaken!" Fu Xiao yelled a little nervously.
"Okay, okay, you read that right."
Bai Yuxuan responded perfunctorily while pushing the door and walking in.
He swept the ground with a burning torch, and the sight made him shudder.
On the thin dust on the ground, there are indeed some clear footprints, these footprints have regular lines and complex patterns, which obviously belong to the footprints of sneakers.
And although these footprints are chaotic, it is also obvious that the footprints on the ground belong to two different people, one footprint is slightly smaller, which should belong to a woman, and the other footprint is slightly larger.
Bai Yuxuan felt cold all over his body for a moment, and endless fear came to him like a tide from all directions.
Someone got into this tomb before we did? But why is there no sign that the first stone door has ever been opened?
Could it be that there are other entrances here? Or did those two people appear out of thin air?
Bai Yuxuan's head seemed to explode when he thought about it.
He lay on the wall of this burial chamber like crazy, groping inch by inch.
Then he ran back to the same path where he had just come down, and groped frantically on the stone walls on both sides, but in the end he found nothing.
Bai Yuxuan didn't find any other entrances, that is, these two sets of footprints appeared in the tomb out of thin air, this conclusion made him feel unbelievable but had to believe it, because the evidence was in front of him.
Under the shroud of this cloud, the three of them lifted the spirit of 120,000 points and stepped into it cautiously together.
"This should be the main hall of the entire tomb, and it is the most important place in the entire tomb."
"The main hall of the tomb generally has the coffin of the tomb owner and a large number of burial goods." Lu Zhentian looked left and right and said softly.
The headlamps on the heads of the three of them swept away, and the situation in the entire tomb was suddenly unobstructed.
This time, the situation in the tomb was finally roughly the same as what Lu Zhentian said.
First of all, the most striking thing is that there is a square stone platform in the middle of the tomb, on which a huge coffin is placed.
And in the four corners of this burial chamber are placed four exquisite wooden boxes, which should contain funerary goods.
When they saw these four wooden boxes, Bai Yuxuan and Fu Xiao temporarily abandoned the fear in their hearts, and walked in front of one of the wooden boxes, as if they wanted to open the wooden boxes to take a peek.
The light of the flashlight shone on the wooden box in front of Bai Yuxuan, and the deep light flowed on the wooden box, which was obviously a wooden box, but it exuded a metallic luster.
Lu Zhentian stepped forward and took a closer look and spoke.
"This wooden box should be made of a wood called 'Black Ironwood'."
"The wood is hard, the wood is black, and the utensils made of black ironwood have a metallic luster, and the hardness is comparable to that of metal."
Bai Yuxuan didn't want to listen to Lu Zhentian's long explanations, he couldn't wait to look at the latch of the wooden box.
What made Bai Yuxuan ecstatic was that the wooden box was not locked, but was just pasted with a thin piece of yellow paper.
He didn't think much about it, and without hesitation, he tore off the yellow paper, opened the wooden box and looked inside.
The sight made Bai Yuxuan very disappointed, there was no golden jade that exuded a thousand feet of light as he imagined, but there were a few broken stones at the bottom of the wooden box.
Bai Yuxuan picked up a piece casually, this stone was black and inconspicuous, unlike agate stone and bloodstone, which made people feel that it was worth a lot at a glance.
I think this must be an ordinary stone.
"What!"
Bai Yuxuan muttered a sentence in his mouth, and threw the stone back into the box with a "snap".
"Fu Xiao, what's in that box?"
Bai Yuxuan turned around and walked towards Fu Xiao, but he didn't notice that Lu Zhentian's face beside him had become extremely ugly.
"Zhenyue Stone, Heavenly Spirit Stone, Pure Source Stone, Destiny Stone, my God!"
Lu Zhentian muttered a string of things like a spell in his mouth, and then he also turned around and walked in the direction of Fu Xiao.
"You've got all this in here, okay, I don't have to look at the other two boxes, they're all rags."
After Bai Yuxuan looked at the contents of the box in front of Fu Xiao, a more angry look appeared on his face.
Lu Zhentian walked over and took a look, his face became even more ugly.
"Agarwood, Nine Turns Wood, Linden Ghost Wood, Fragrant Fang Wood......"
"What did you say?!"
Bai Yuxuan and Fu Xiao were both a little confused.
Lu Zhentian didn't say a word, walked quickly to the other two wooden boxes, and opened them one by one.
After looking at all the contents of the wooden box, Lu Zhentian returned to Bai Yuxuan and Fu Xiao.
Although he had tried his best to keep his composure, his hands and legs trembled slightly.
"What's wrong?"
Bai Yuxuan and the others didn't understand why Lu Zhentian had such a big reaction.
Lu Zhentian tried his best to control his emotions, and after a few minutes, he was finally able to speak.
"You thought there would be gold and silver treasures in the chest, but you didn't expect these things, right?"
"But just now I went through all four boxes and found something very unpleasant."
"There are four kinds of stones in the first box, Zhenyue Stone, Heavenly Spirit Stone, Pure Source Stone and Destiny Stone."
"There are four kinds of wood in the second box, agarwood, nine-turn wood, linden ghost wood, and fragrant oak wood."
"There are four kinds of medicinal herbs in the third box, Soul Transformation Grass, Macaroni, Rehmannia Essence and Tianquzhi."
"There are four kinds of artifacts in the fourth chest, the Soul Lock, the Cast Iron Sword, the Muddy Rock Ding, and the Glazed Tile."
"What, what are these things? You've watched too many movies, haven't you? ”
Bai Yuxuan heard these unheard of terms in Lu Zhentian's mouth, and thought that Lu Zhentian was talking nonsense.
Lu Zhentian didn't say anything to him, and continued to talk about himself.
"In the tomb, there is a wooden box in each of the four corners, and there are four things in each wooden box, which is the 'Quartet Town'!"
"What?!"
Fu Xiao was also in the fog when he heard it, he reached over and probed Lu Zhentian's forehead, Fu Xiao thought he had a fever, otherwise how could he talk nonsense?
Lu Zhentian slapped Fu Xiao's hand away, and said with a serious expression.
"Let me be clear, the placement of these wooden boxes and the items in them is called 'Quartet Suppression'."
"As the name suggests, 'Quartet Suppression' drives away evil spirits from all directions, and the town of Jiuquan is evil."
"This is an important means to suppress ghosts and drive away evil spirits."
"To put it simply, there is a powerful ghost in this coffin in front of us now, and it needs to be suppressed with the help of the 'Quartet Suppression'."
Earlier, Lu Zhentian said a lot of Bai Yuxuan and Fu Xiao didn't understand, and they heard this sentence "powerful ghost" clearly, and their faces changed instantly.
"What, what, awesome?!"
"You're not kidding, are you?!"
"Then why don't we run yet?!"
Just when Bai Yuxuan and Fu Xiao didn't know what to do.
"Knock...... Boom...... Knock knock ......"
A dull knocking sound suddenly sounded from the coffin not far away, as if something was slapping the lid of the coffin hard.
The eyes of the three suddenly turned to the coffin.
"Do you hear that? The stuff inside seems to be moving?! ”
Bai Yuxuan's lips trembled up and down, and he almost squeezed out this sentence from between his teeth.
