Chapter Eighty-Five: Green Smoke
After Wang Chuyi and Qiye were ready to open the coffin, the three of us stood around the coffin, and Wang Chuyi and Qiye reached out at the same time to turn over the dry corpse, wanting to turn the dry corpse off the coffin.
The two of them moved very lightly, for fear that the dry corpse would be overturned, in the line of inverted buckets, open the coffin without destroying the corpse, that is a rule that has been handed down for many years, because the coffin is lying in our own ancestors, you can get benefits from the ancestors, but don't make the ancestors angry, otherwise future generations will be unlucky.
Just when Wang Chuyi carefully removed the arm of the dried corpse from the coffin, he suddenly heard a crisp sound, because when he turned the arm of the dried corpse, he drove the body of the dried corpse, and moved together, and a jade bead fell from the mouth of the dry corpse.
Then I clearly saw a stream of green smoke rising from his mouth, and secretly screamed in my heart, with the experience of the last time in that doubtful grave, I concluded that this green smoke must be poisonous, so I quickly covered my mouth and nose with my hand.
Although I moved quickly, I already smelled a special smell, this smell was very fragrant, a bit like perfume, and I wondered in my heart, shouldn't the green smoke coming out of this corpse be stinky? How can it be fragrant now?
At this time, the seventh master and Wang Chuyi also covered their mouths and noses, we looked at each other, and we both saw the confusion in each other's hearts, what is the mystery of this kind of coffin hidden in the corpse, we don't know, a burst of green smoke came out coldly, although it is fragrant, but it will not be a perfume prepared to welcome tomb robbers to come and open the coffin!
At that moment, there was a rustling sound, and my scalp tingled as I heard it, and the sound I had heard in the grave of doubt, and a word came out of my headβscorpion!
The seventh master hurriedly shouted, "It's not good! β
In an instant, I had already seen dense scorpions pouring towards the coffin, the number was staggering, the ground of the entire underground palace was full of scorpions, black pressure one after another, there were thousands.
The scorpions surrounded the coffin, and there was no next move, just around like this, making hissing sounds, and did not attack us.
I waved the torch in front of me, afraid that the scorpion would suddenly rush at me, and asked, "What's going on?" β
Wang Chu made the same movements as me with one hand, and said, "It must be that green smoke, the scorpion has attracted it!" β
I hurriedly said, "I also know that Qingyan brought it in, and what I asked is why this scorpion didn't attack us?" β
Wang Chuyi shook and stared nervously at the scorpion in front of him.
At this time, the seventh master walked over slowly and said, "Don't fucking wave that torch, this scorpion can't come in." He pointed to the brick in front of him, and then said, "There must be something painted on that brick that will repel scorpions." β
I fixed my eyes and saw that the scorpions were all outside this square brick, although there were many of them, but none of them dared to cross the square bricks and come in to attack us, and now where we were formed a circular open space with a diameter of more than ten meters wide, surrounded by dense scorpions, and the main coffin was in the middle of this circular clearing.
When I saw this situation, I didn't shake the torch anymore, so many scorpions, if they really wanted to attack us, the fire in their hands would not be useful at all, so I turned around and said, "Seventh Master, although this scorpion can't get in, but it's always around here, and we can't get out?" β
The seventh master's face was gloomy, and he said, "Let's take one step at a time." After speaking, the seventh master's face sank and shouted, "It's not good!" Then he looked up and said, "What about Huzi?" β
Hearing such a reminder from the seventh master, I also chuckled in my heart, where we are where the scorpions can't enter, but it's hard to say where the tiger is, so I turned on the flashlight and shone it towards the location where the tiger is, only to see that there are also a lot of scorpions there, densely packed, illuminated by the light of the flashlight, reflecting bursts of white light.
"Huzi! Are you okay!? I shouted.
But at this time, it was very quiet above, and there was no response at all, and I immediately panicked, so many scorpions, Huzi couldn't have been tricked! So he shouted a few times, "Huzi, I'll let you know if the fuck is fine!" β
But there was still no movement on it, and I felt more and more bad in my heart.
At this time, the seventh master patted me on the shoulder and said, "In my opinion, Huzi should be fine." β
I glanced at the Seventh Master and hurriedly asked, "How do you know?" β
The seventh master said, "Seeing the scorpion with the character of the tiger, he will definitely remind us, even if he is attacked by the scorpion, he will definitely make a sound, such as screaming and the like, but until we are surrounded by the scorpion, we have not heard any sound from the tiger, which proves that the tiger is fine!" β
I listened to the seventh master's analysis makes sense, although I am very worried about the safety of the tiger, but now in this state, I can't go over to check, I can only nod, I hope the seventh master is right.
Wang Chuyi said, "Let's open the coffin first, in this situation, there should be no way out, even if the tiger is hit by some mechanism and unfortunately dies, it is estimated that we will go to him soon." β
"Oh, the tiger won't die!" I retorted, then looked at the scorpions around me, and said in my heart that it was a death for both horizontal and vertical, what are you afraid of now? It doesn't matter if he can't extinguish the candle, open the coffin first.
Thinking of this, I rushed to the main coffin, reached down, and with a strong pull, lifted the lid of the coffin, and then smelled a foul smell.
I fanned my nose with my hand, and looked into the coffin, only to see a corpse with a mask, lying quietly in the coffin, the clothes on the body had rotted and blackened, the lines on the clothes were no longer visible, only some gold threads were still faintly visible.
Judging from the gold thread on this dress, this person must have had a very high status in his life, and he must have had a lot of burial goods when he was buried in such luxurious clothes.
The seventh master and the first year also came up, probably I didn't expect me to be so reckless to open this coffin, both of them were a little surprised, the seventh master casually took out a pair of medical plastic gloves and handed it to me, and said, "Don't touch the things in this coffin directly with your hands, be careful of poison." β
I nodded, and after putting on my gloves, I was about to rummage through the corpse's clothes, but as soon as my hand pinched the corner of the clothes, and tried to lift the clothes and turn them aside, I felt my fingers stick, and the corners of the clothes were directly pinched into mud by me.
"Slow down, this dress has been corroded for thousands of years, and it is good to keep the original silhouette now."
As soon as Wang Chuyi reminded me, I also had an idea in my heart, so I directly put my hand into the chest of the dress, carefully held up the dress, and then slowly turned it aside.
After turning the clothes open, the three of us couldn't help but gasp when we saw the corpse!
