Chapter 29: Seven Stars Nail Evil
"There really is a secret passage! Ha ha! This time it's a lot easier! Let's go down and take a look! Zhang Ergou was excited, because there was a chance that he would enter the owner's tomb this time, and there would definitely be a lot of treasures at that time!
"Wait, let's let our people go first and explore the way."
Chiba Shinichi was not at ease with Zhang Ergou, but he was the first to go in and was afraid of danger, so he let the dead soldiers of his family go first to explore the way.
Zhang Ergou smiled awkwardly, but he didn't say anything, and quietly retreated behind Chen Sanshui, because he always felt that this old boy would coldly put a cold gun on his back, so it might be safer to follow Chen Sanshui.
A dead soldier of the Chiba family sneaked into the secret passage first, and he shone his flashlight around, but found nothing unusual, so he beckoned everyone to enter the secret passage.
The next ones are still the people of the Chiba family, Chiba Shinichi and Chen Sanshui, they are at the end.
After Chen Sanshui sneaked into the secret passage, he looked up at the strange bronze coffin again, and found that the bottom of the coffin was carved with various strange runes, and he couldn't tell what the specific effect was, but he always felt as if he had seen it somewhere.
The seven of them walked cautiously forward, turning nine times in a row through this dark secret passage before they came across a dimly lit secret room.
"Is this the master's burial chamber? Why doesn't it look like it? "Zhang Ergou feels that this place is gloomy, there is not even a burial object, it should not be the owner's tomb!
"Master Chen, there is also a coffin here, do you think this is the owner's tomb?" Chiba Shinichi believed in Chen Sanshui's judgment.
"Not all of the owner's tombs are luxurious, some people are suspicious, so they will make a lot of tombs that look luxurious to make them look real, and the tomb he lives in looks very simple, in fact, he doesn't want others to disturb his purity." Chen Sanshui said with a smile.
Whether this is the owner's tomb or not still needs to be judged by opening the coffin, and you can't draw a direct conclusion based on the surrounding environment!
"Brother Shui, do you mean that this is likely to be the master's tomb? But that's too basic, isn't it? And why do you have to make such a big fake coffin outside? Zhang Ergou couldn't help but ask.
"Everything has to wait until the coffin is opened and the autopsy is not concluded." Chen Sanshui said.
"Uh, well, let's open the coffin for an autopsy!"
After Zhang Ergou finished speaking, he took out a candle and lit it, and then put it on top of the coffin lid, but as soon as he turned around, the candle was extinguished instantly!
"Huh? How can it go out all of a sudden? Could it be that there is a lack of oxygen here? Zhang Ergou asked curiously.
"It is estimated that it is not a lack of oxygen, it was obviously burning very vigorously when it was lit just now, and this candle was suddenly extinguished, so it should have nothing to do with oxygen." Chen Sanshui frowned and analyzed.
"Could it be that I accidentally destroyed it by making too big a move when I turned around?"
Zhang Ergou muttered, and then stepped forward to light the candle.
After the candle was lit this time, it was still burning vigorously, and everyone stared at the candle above the coffin lid, but the candle burned for less than five seconds and suddenly went out without warning!
"What's the situation? Could it be that the wind blows it out? Impossible? We turned so many corners just now, even if there was wind, we wouldn't blow out the candles all at once, right? Zhang Ergou said curiously.
Chen Sanshui frowned and stepped forward to take down the candle on the coffin lid, and then lit the candle again, carefully observing the changes after the candle burned.
But the next thing is exactly the same as before, the candle burns very strongly at first, but it will be extinguished in less than five seconds, as if it has been blown out!
When he saw this scene, Zhang Ergou couldn't help but lower his voice and said, "Brother Shui, isn't this really what people often say about living people lighting candles and ghosts blowing out lamps?" ”
"Shut up! Don't be suspicious! Everything has a reason, but we haven't figured it out yet, so let's open the coffin first. ”
Chen Sanshui was a little bored at this time, and always felt that something bad was about to happen, so he wanted to leave here as soon as possible.
"Alright then, big guy help, let's pry open the lid of this coffin!"
Zhang Ergou took out the crowbar, while Chiba Sakura and the others used a folding shovel, and everyone gathered around the coffin lid and began to pry.
Because the coffin was made of wood, it soon came loose, and then everyone worked together to open the lid of the coffin.
But when everyone saw the corpse lying in the coffin, they were all stunned, because the corpse in the coffin was nailed by seven black nails! And there were no funeral goods in the whole coffin except for a corpse!
"This is definitely not the master's burial chamber, because no matter how poor this person is, he has to get a few decent burial goods!" Zhang Ergou couldn't find the burial goods, and he instantly lost interest in the corpse.
"This corpse is so well preserved! More than a thousand years have passed, and it looks like the skin is wrinkled and dry, and you can vaguely see some physiognomy outlines! Chiba Sakura couldn't help but exclaim.
"You didn't see the better-preserved female corpse, or you'd be even more shocked! The female corpse looked thin and tender! That's right! And it looks exactly like you! Zhang Ergou said with a smile at this time.
Chiba Sakura raised her eyebrows when she heard this, thinking that Zhang Ergou was joking.
However, these words reminded Chen Sanshui at once, he took a closer look at the outline of this dried corpse, and then looked at Chiba Shinichi who was silent on the side, thinking that this old man looked very similar to a dried corpse! Is the family's genetics so strong? But why is the burial chamber of the male corpse so shabby?
However, at this time, Chiba Shinichi suddenly stepped forward and pulled out a nail!
"Don't move!"
Chen Sanshui immediately stepped forward to stop it, but Chiba Shinichi had already pulled out the black nail!
"What's wrong, Master Chen? Can't this nail be pulled out? Chiba Shinichi asked curiously.
"Yes! I also encountered this situation when I was touching gold in an ancient tomb, the same corpse was nailed by seven nails, and there was a charm on the top of the nail, and the coffin was engraved with anti-evil runes. And you have to cover the coffin and leave immediately! That's why I always felt like something wasn't quite right, so let's get out as soon as possible! ”
Chen Sanshui told the truth, but it was difficult to say whether everyone would believe it.
"But the legend of our family is the opposite, according to legend, the corpse of our ancestors is nailed with seven peach wood nails, and as long as you pull out the seven peach wood nails, you can get endless treasures!"
If it weren't for the fact that what Chen Sanshui said was completely opposite to what he knew, Chiba Shinichi would not have told his secret at this time at all, and this was a secret that everyone in the entire Chiba family didn't know except him!
