Chapter 21: Lighting a candle and opening the coffin

Just when a group of people were frantically plundering gold and silver treasures, one of the young men suddenly became red-faced, his face looked very abnormal, he laughed wildly, and it didn't take long for the whole person to fall to the ground with a pop, and he didn't breathe anymore!

This scene instantly woke everyone up, and the rest of the people hurriedly stepped forward to see what the situation was.

"Brother Shui, is he suddenly sick?" Zhang Ergou couldn't help but ask.

"It's not that he's sick, his face is very wrong, nine times out of ten he is poisoned!" Chen Sanshui said very seriously.

"Poisoned? Where did the poison come from? Zhang Ergou asked again.

"In order to prevent others from robbing tombs, the ancients not only set up many mechanisms in the tombs, but also smeared those burial goods with poison, so the treasures in the cemetery cannot be easily touched!" Chen Sanshui explained.

As soon as they heard this, everyone immediately threw all the treasures they were holding in their arms to the ground, but their hands had turned red, and the toxins had begun to gather on their heads, and it would not be long before they would also fall!

In less than a moment, three people fell in succession, and the remaining two lay on the ground wailing and crying, because no one wanted to die.

But there was no antidote on the people, and they could only blame them for being confused by the gold, silver and jewelry, and there was no one to save them at the moment.

The six young people who followed Chen Sanshui into the secret room alive were all dead, and now only him, Zhang Ergou and Chiba Shinichi remained.

Chiba Shinichi was not saddened by the death of everyone, he only had treasures in his eyes, and they were peerless treasures that only he knew!

"Master Chen, is this the master's tomb? Are my ancestors buried in this coffin? Chiba Shinichi asked, holding back the excitement in his heart.

"It's hard to say, under normal circumstances, the mechanism in the master's tomb should be more complex and changeable, and it won't be so obvious here, but it's also possible that the senior felt that the previous mechanism was enough to deal with the tomb robbers in the future, so he regarded this place as his own tomb." Chen Sanshui said uncertainly.

"If the coffin is opened for an autopsy, will it be certain?" Shinichi Chiba asked again.

"If the autopsy is conducted, there should be more than seventy percent certainty, after all, this is just my speculation, unless you know that there is some kind of special burial goods in your ancestors' coffins to determine the identity."

For Captain Mojin, judging whether to find the owner's tomb is entirely determined by the preciousness of the burial goods in the coffin, but the accuracy rate is not particularly high, because the ancients often built multiple tombs to confuse the real from the fake, making it difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake.

However, for the descendants of the deceased, it may be possible to determine 100% of the identity of the ancestors as long as they find a special funeral object with a symbolic character, but this is a secret within the family, and it is difficult for outsiders to know.

Chiba Shinichi nodded when he heard this, and then said: "The ancestor has been dead for more than a thousand years, even if someone in the Chiba family really knew this secret before, no one knows it until now, it's up to you to judge, the old man listens to you!" ”

Chiba Shinichi was very convinced of Chen Sanshui, because he had never found the location of the cemetery in his life, but the other party helped him find it, which is enough to show that Chen Sanshui has real materials!

And from the beginning of entering the cemetery, Chen Sanshui's courage and wisdom are far beyond ordinary people, he is definitely the heir of the golden school captain, there will be no fake! So Chiba really believes what Chen Sanshui said!

Chen Sanshui took a deep breath at this moment, after ten years, he was going to open the coffin again!

"Ancestor bless!"

Chen Sanshui said a sentence in his mouth, then took out a candle from his backpack and lit it, and then held the burning candle and circled around the coffin.

"Brother Shui, are you looking for the southeast corner? Isn't it okay to use the compass to locate it directly? Zhang Ergou said with a smile.

"Hehe, do you think this is the plot of the movie? What is the use of a candle in the southeast corner? Do you really think there is such a thing as a living person lighting a candle and a ghost blowing out a lamp? There are no ghosts in this world, they are all feudal superstitions that are false, and there is no such rule for the real captain to touch gold. Chen Sanshui said with a smile.

"No such rules? So why do you light a candle? Zhang Ergou asked incomprehensibly.

"Underground mausoleums generally lack oxygen, and when the lights go out, it means that there is a serious lack of oxygen in the mausoleum, and you must leave as soon as possible at this time! Moreover, the ancients often smeared poison on the coffin, or made some white phosphorus and other low-ignition things to pretend to be ghost fires, in order to scare away tomb robbers, so it is necessary to burn the coffin with a candle flame at this time. ”

Chen Sanshui had already burned it with candles around the coffin just now, and he didn't find anything abnormal, so he put on gloves, installed folding crowbars and jacks around it, and prepared to open the coffin directly.

With a soft creak, the coffin lid was pried open a gap, and the flame of the candle skyrocketed several times at once, startling Zhang Ergou and Chiba Shinichi!

"Brother Shui, why does this candle burn so vigorously all of a sudden?" Zhang Ergou was very worried in his heart, thinking that something big was about to happen!

"The coffin is too tightly sealed, and a large amount of flammable gas will be produced after the human body decays, so the candle will burn very strongly." Chen Sanshui explained.

"Is that going to explode?" Zhang Ergou was a little nervous in his heart, feeling that this coffin would be as dangerous as a gas tank at home?

"Haha, you think too much, the flammable gas produced after a person's death is not much, even if it really explodes, the power is at most like a cannonball, or your life!" Chen Sanshui said with a smile.

"Then do you think the corpse in this coffin will be a deception? Shall I take a black donkey's hooves on guard? Zhang Ergou said timidly.

"Zombies are not common, they will only be produced under certain conditions, they belong to the species that is mutated by the virus, you just treat him as a lion and a tiger, you don't need to be too nervous." Chen Sanshui smiled and comforted.

"Aren't lions and tigers scary? I feel that zombies are much more scary than lions and tigers! At least I can kill a lion and tiger with one shot, but I can't do anything about zombies! "Zhang Ergou has never seen a zombie in his life, so the more he has never seen something, the more nervous he is.

"Zombies also have their weaknesses, garlic, glutinous rice, black donkey hooves, black dog blood, these things can deal with zombies, you just have to calm down."

Chen Sanshui really doesn't think that zombies have anything to be afraid of, because the opponent's attack power is not as good as that giant baby fish! The real killers in the graveyard are the traps and grave beasts! And now he has only experienced the trap and has not found the tomb beast, so it is likely that this is a fake owner's tomb!
