Chapter Twenty-Seven: Thrilling

Lu Zhentian's abruptly raised tone startled everyone.

"You, what do you mean? What's all in one catch? Who is 'he'? Why do you want to catch us all? ”

Fu Xiao didn't understand, he felt that everyone together was a united collective, invincible.

Especially for Chen Chen, although they haven't been apart for a long time, in such a treacherous and inexplicable place, it is naturally an extremely happy thing to be with the person he likes.

Lu Zhentian's face was still solemn, his gaze slowly swept over the faces of several other people, and finally stopped in a void.

"The layout of this tomb is obviously 'Quartet Suppression', yes, then correspondingly, this coffin must also be a terrible ghost's corpse."

"As for why the coffin is empty now, then ......"

Lu Zhentian's sharp gaze stayed on Chen Chen and Zhou Xiwei's faces for a long time.

"I'm wondering why Chen Chen and the others fainted inexplicably and were sent to this tomb, maybe it was the guy who was in the coffin who did it."

"He's probably hiding somewhere right now, secretly watching our every move."

"He wants to catch us all and bury us all in this tomb!"

After speaking, Lu Zhentian looked around nervously, and everyone was shocked by what he said.

"You're so scary, I'm going to believe it......"

Bai Yuxuan let out a few dry laughs, but no matter how he sounded, it sounded like a hoarse voice made by being choked by his neck.

"You go and see what's inside, and you'll understand."

Lu Zhentian stretched out a finger and pointed to the inside of the coffin, so that everyone didn't know why.

Aren't there only Chen Chen and Zhou Xiwei in the coffin? Now that they've all come out of the coffin, is there anything else in it?

Bai Yuxuan stretched the burning end of the torch into the coffin, and in the faint light of the fire, everyone saw that there were indeed some other things in the coffin.

There were no yellow paper stickers on the inside of the coffin, and there were no burial goods.

It's just that there is a faint outline at the bottom of the coffin, and it can be vaguely seen that it is a human form.

But it obviously didn't belong to either Zhou Xiwei or Chen Chen, and the silhouette seemed to be formed by the wax oil dripping from a burning candle.

Bai Yuxuan leaned closer to the torch, wanting to see more clearly.

At this moment, the unexpected happened!

A spark suddenly fell from the top of the torch, and the spark fell into the coffin, causing a burst of fire.

Everyone was defenseless against this sudden incident, and they were all stunned for a while.

After a few seconds, Bai Yuxuan, who was closest to him, suddenly reacted, he took out a bottle of mineral water from his bag, unscrewed the cap and poured it into the coffin with his backhand, and the whole action was done in one go.

To everyone's relief, with the pouring of a bottle of mineral water, the fire, which was not too fierce, was suddenly controlled.

The burning fire gradually diminished, and finally slowly extinguished.

A wisp of smoke gradually rose from the coffin, accompanied by a strange smell that was not unpleasant, slowly spreading in the air.

"Ahem! Cough! ”

Bai Yuxuan choked on the smoke and coughed a few times, he turned his head to Lu Zhentian and asked, "What's going on?" Why did it suddenly catch fire?! ”

Lu Zhentian paced to the stone platform and looked into the coffin.

He looked at it for a few minutes, his brow furrowed slightly, but he seemed relieved.

"Sure enough, as I thought, this layer of wax-like substance inside the coffin is called corpse wax."

"Cadaver wax is a substance that does not move for a long time, and the subcutaneous fat is precipitated from the muscle and solidified into wax oil outside the body."

"So the contours formed by the wax are the same as when the corpse is lying down. Corpse wax can burn, but it doesn't burn very well. This can also prove that there was indeed a corpse in the coffin before, and this corpse has not been around for a short time. ”

"Crazy! You lunatic! No matter, I'm going out now! ”

Fu Xiao didn't know if he was shocked by Lu Zhentian's words, or if he was given tremendous pressure by this strange tomb, he suddenly yelled, and took Chen Chen's hand and walked outside.

Before Bai Yuxuan could react, when he subconsciously wanted to stop them from leaving, Lu Zhentian waved his hand, signaling to leave them alone.

"So what should we do now?"

Many strange things have happened since entering the tomb, which makes Bai Yuxuan subconsciously regard Lu Zhentian as the leader.

"We move on, and now there should be only two transepts and an apse left. The missing body must have been in one of the three burial chambers. ”

After saying that, Lu Zhentian walked towards the front, Bai Yuxuan looked at the direction where Fu Xiao and the others left, and let out a light sigh in his mouth, so he had to keep up with Lu Zhentian's pace.

Continuing from the main hall, there was another long corridor, and not long after the three of them marched, three stone doors appeared in front of them.

Two stone gates are located on either side, and one stone gate is located in front of you.

The three of them stopped, and Lu Zhentian turned back to Bai Yuxuan and said, "The left and right rooms are the ear room, and the other is the apse. ”

"Let's go to the two transepts first, and then to the apse at the end."

Bai Yuxuan and the others did not object, so Lu Zhentian stretched out his hand to push open the stone door of the ear room on the left.

"The two transepts were generally used to house the coffins of the cultivated slaves and a small number of funerary goods."

Lu Zhentian explained to Bai Yuxuan and the others while pushing the stone door.

Obviously, except for the strange stone door of the first burial chamber, the other stone doors in this tomb are ordinary stone doors.

Lu Zhentian easily pushed open the door, and a long-sealed rotten aura was released.

The three of them rushed in, and the place where they entered was empty, and there was nothing in this ear chamber.

The three of them did not linger long, and turned to the other chamber.

It's the same with this transept, there is nothing but dust all over the room.

The three of them hurried to what could be the last chamber of the tomb.

The three of them stood in front of the door of the apse, and it was still Lu Zhentian who raised his hand and pushed towards the stone door.

When Lu Zhentian's hand touched the stone door, his eyes were in a trance, and a voice in his head told him not to push open the stone door.

But the movements of his hands did not match the thoughts in his mind, and he had already pushed the last stone door open.

didn't have time to think about it, Lu Zhentian was the first to step in.

Although this apse is not as large as the main hall, it is also larger than the two transepts, and about the same size as the front hall.

In the center of the burial chamber there is a stone platform as large as the main hall, on which is placed a coffin, and there is no coffin, just a separate coffin.

There is nothing else.

Everyone slowly approached the stone platform, forming a triangular encirclement.

Lu Zhentian swallowed, because it was obvious that the corpse that disappeared from the coffin in the main hall could only be in the coffin in front of him.

He rubbed his hands together and pulled out the sapper shovel from his bag, ready to do the final exhumation.

But no sooner had he lifted the sapper shovel than there was a violent thud from the coffin.

"Click!"

A pair of arms covered with black hair burst out of the coffin and choked Lu Zhentian's neck tightly.

None of the three reacted, but the instinct for survival drove Bai Yuxuan and Zhou Xiwei to escape.

Bai Yuxuan ran a few steps, and suddenly gritted his teeth and turned back. snatched the sapper shovel from Lu Zhentian's hand.

The strength of those hands was extremely huge, and at this time, Lu Zhentian's face was already purple, and he was about to die if he wanted to see it.
