Volume 2 The Stone Man of the Western Regions The Stone Man of the Western Regions Chapter 76: Opening the Coffin

The space of the ancient building is very spacious, and the windows around it are in the shape of cow ribs, sealed by unknown animal skins.

In the corner of the wall on the right-hand side of the entrance, there is a staircase leading to the second floor. In the bevel angle formed between the staircase and the ground on the first floor, there are piles of red coffins, each coffin is only a little more than a meter, one on top of the other, occupying all the space under the slope of the staircase!

The fat man soon spotted the coffins as well, and stood beside me and pointed his flashlight at that location.

At the same time, he was surprised: "Damn! This... The people of this "Inner Country" are so small? Why is the coffin still parked in the house! ”

"Over there, too!"

I moved the flashlight in the direction Yiyi was pointing, and found that under the wall on our left, like the space under the stairs, was covered with these square red coffins of a little more than a meter!

My scalp suddenly tingled a little, and I asked the fat man, "Have you ever been to Yizhuang?" ”

The fat man looked at me suspiciously and asked, "What Yizhuang?" You're going to bow down to me, huh? Hey, what do you want that form, let's just kneel on the ground and kowtow! "Say something and press me on the shoulders and push me to the ground, and see if the force is really going to make me kneel down with him!

I said in my heart that this stupid big fat man, is his mother's brain really missing a string! shook off his big hand vigorously, stepped forward, and said to him: "The Yizhuang I am talking about is the Yizhuang where the corpse was placed!" ”

Yizhuang, if interpreted literally, righteousness is the right reason in the world, and the road is the road to the world. To put it bluntly, it is an ancient charity that arose in the Northern Song Dynasty. Generally speaking, Yizhuang has a righteous house for the poor to borrow, if the house needs to be repaired, it is a kind of use of Yizhuang.

There is another type of Yoshizhuang where corpses are parked. The ancients paid attention to the return of fallen leaves to their roots, and they all hoped that they could be buried in their hometown after their death. During the period of time before the descendants were ready to transfer the ancestors to the burial cemetery, Yizhuang provided a temporary parking place for these coffins and coffins that had not yet been repaired.

Of course, some Yizhuang is not simply parked for the coffin that is about to be buried, for example, some of the body has no relatives responsible for the burial, or the relatives are so poor that they can't be buried, and some are dead in a foreign country, and the body can not be exposed to the sun, so it can only be transferred to Yizhuang first, and then make plans.

Yiyi had only heard of the first explanation, so the fat man popularized it for him, and said: "Senior sister, this Yizhuang of Xiao Suti is not the charity that Fan Zhongyan prepared for his clan, the Yizhuang he said is this... This this.. A morgue in ancient times! ”

After listening to the fat man's explanation, Yiyi looked around the ancient building and said, "Are you saying that this is the Yizhuang of the "Centrium of the Earth"? ”

I shook my head and said to them, "I'm just a metaphor, the word Yizhuang started in the Song Dynasty. If you look at the wooden building in front of you, this kind of cow-ribbed window was only available in the Han Dynasty. If this place is also called Yizhuang, doesn't it mean that the people who built this city are not only the Han Dynasty people in the Central Plains, but also from the Song Dynasty! ”

"It's very likely, Xiao Su, you

This explanation is really wonderful, give you a big thumbs up! ”

The fat man gave his signature thumbs up as he spoke.

I looked at the time, and more than an hour had passed since we entered the "birth gate". For more than an hour, we didn't actually go very far!

When I retreated into the ancient building, I suggested to the fat man whether he should try to fire a flare, but the fat man vetoed it. The fat man's original words are that in this kind of place, even if there are no rat essences, people who come in will not be able to get out, not to mention that there are so many cuties at present!

Now the situation of the four of us is like the battlefield in ancient times, blocked on a waterless mountain on all sides. Although the enemy army can't rush up, they just besiege us, as long as we run out of ammunition and food, we will be trapped alive!

When the fat man saw these coffins, I could clearly feel his excitement in his emotions.

Although I would also like to see what the people of this legendary "Inner Land" look like, reason tells me that I can't open these coffins, otherwise I will see strange things!

The fat man patted his chest and packed the ticket with me, making me believe in his skills, saying that as long as the coffin was not opened and only a small hole was drilled to see what was inside, the body would never be allowed to come out! Even if there are big zongzi in it, oh no, it's a small zongzi! This little hole won't let him jump out and cheat the corpse!

I thought about it, but I couldn't convince my curiosity, so I agreed to his suggestion.

To be on the safe side, I asked Yiyi to hold our only black donkey's hoof in her hand. At the same time, I smeared the donkey oil on my body for a long time, trying to make it more evenly so that he could become more like a living donkey's hooves!

The fat man took out a handful of glutinous rice from his pocket, stretched out his hand to divide a handful of glutinous rice with me, saw that I was smearing donkey oil, and said to me: "Xiao Su, I think you have changed now!" It's not the same as when I first met you! ”

I asked him, "What's the difference?" ”

He touched his chin and said meaningfully: "At that time, I was more mature, calm, and worried!" Now, he's getting more and more stupid! ”

I said in my heart, fuck me, I shouldn't listen to this fat man, I don't have good words!

The fat man shook his head when he saw that I was ignoring him, and turned to go to the place where we had stacked our food and packages. Xiao Qian was squatting there, sorting out her medicine box. Seeing that the fat man had passed, he didn't look up, but still lowered his head and tidied up.

The fat man squatted beside Xiao Qian and said to Xiao Qian: "What about packing up your things?" ”

Seeing that Xiao Qian ignored him, he laughed knowingly, and then began to dig out things from his tomb robbery treasure chest.

I was stunned to see what he pulled out, a small crowbar, a ruler, two pieces of rune paper...... In the end, I even pulled out an electric drill with a battery!

"Eh, I said Xiao Su, why are you in a daze! Come and help my brother! ”

I was attracted by what he pulled out and didn't see him waving to me. I embarrassed past and helped him pick up a crowbar, and two yellow ones

Rune paper. This is the second time I have come into contact with rune paper, and before I touched rune paper, it was a package sent to me by Aunt Ming, which contained the "Zhenlong Fu".

I asked the fat man, "Dude, what's the use of these two runes?" ”

The fat man was walking towards the staircase, and when he heard my question, he looked back at me and said, "Xiao Su, didn't you watch TV series when you were a child?" I haven't seen how those Taoist leaders deal with zombies! These two pieces of my rune paper were learned by me and a Maoshan Taoist priest! We are experts in dealing with zongzi, in case a zombie pops out of it, we also use humanitarian things! ”

As he spoke, a sentence from before flashed in my mind, whether a white cat or a black cat, a good cat is a good cat if it can catch a mouse. It seems that this product has fully understood the meaning of the great man's words, what is the saying of the southern faction to rob the tomb and the northern faction to rob the tools, and when it comes to the fat man, it has completely become an ornament. The fat man once gave himself a nickname, calling himself "the chief scoop of the North and South faction touching the golden Taoist"! It's quite a mouthful to read.

Soon, Yiyi and I followed the fat man to the staircase. Xiaoqian probably saw that the distance between me and her was within her control, so she didn't follow, still sorting out her medicine box.

After getting close to these red coffins, it makes people feel even more uncomfortable, as if there are snakes crawling all over their bodies, which is very uncomfortable.

The fat man stood in front of me and Yiyi, and without looking back, he stretched out his hand to me and asked me for something, and I casually handed him a piece of talisman paper, and kept one for myself. I said in my heart, if there are really zombies for a while, let's try this Taoist thing.

I heard the fat man turn around and say to me: "I said Northeast Lao Tie, what do you want!" Brother I want candles, candles! I'm the "Captain of the Golden School", okay! ”

I haven't heard the word Lao Tie for a long time. At first glance, it sounds a little kind.

I embarrassedly handed over the candle in my hand, and Yiyi lit it up for the fat man without saying a word.

I know that Yiyi should be worried about the safety of his father, Master Liu, but, judging from the current situation, if Master Liu is still alive, we may not be much better than the situation that Master Liu encountered. If I'm guessing correctly, Master Liu should also be somewhere in this huge underground city.

After the fat man took the candle, he took out the compass from his bosom, and saw him light it, and then glanced at the position of the pointer on it. Directly across from me is on my left-hand side, near the cow's backbone window.

He walked there without hesitation, set up the candle, and calmly lit it. There were still words in his mouth: "Ancestor bless, the coffin is opened smoothly." The auspicious position is wax, and the rooster does not go out! ”

Then I walked back again, and I looked at the flame of the candle, and it was dusk and yellow, no different from the color of the candle flame in my impression. Only then did I put my mind at ease, and my heart said, the rooster will not go out, and the ancestor will bless.

After I finished talking to the fat man, I suddenly realized that I had been influenced by him. After so many "underground" experiences, I have successfully changed from a materialistic youth to an out-and-out supernatural idea. Begin to believe that many would not have been before at all

The paranormal phenomenon of identification, or rather the bizarre phenomenon.

These small red coffins in front of me are stacked several meters high, and from the ground to the ceiling, there are three such small coffins.

The fat man's height was about 1.88 meters, and he stretched out his hand and could just touch the coffin at the top.

I asked the fat man, "How do we make holes?" ”

The fat man pointed to a coffin in the middle and said, "How is this mouth?" It's pleasing to the eye! ”

I had no objection and handed him the drill.

I nervously pinched the rune paper, my hands were covered with sweat, and in one hand I held the flashlight and Yiyi's flashlight beam together, illuminating the position of the fat man's drill.

After a whining sound, the mouth on the coffin was already formed. A small hole about the size of a softball was drilled out by a fat man's electric drill.

The fat man exhaled and handed me the drill, ready to shine it with a flashlight.

My flashlight never left the hole, and when the fat man handed me the drill, I slipped into the coffin. Looking through the softball-sized hole, I was so frightened that my hairs exploded! From the hole, a row of long whiskers stretched out!
