【019】Who is the final winner

Thinking that it was about to be done, the hunchbacked master's cunning face couldn't hide the joy on it. Gently touched the lame butler beside him, and whispered, "What treasure do you like the most from the prince?" ”

The lame butler smiled and said, "I want the night pearl of the prince, master—you shouldn't think of a piece for me, right?" The lame butler tentatively stared at each other with the pair of eyes sunken in their sockets; With a pointed chin, a sparse gray beard, and hooked nose and mouse eyes, the more you look at it, the more you look like a sinister and cunning villain—

The hunchbacked master was looked at by the other party so bluntly, and he looked embarrassed. A pair of thief's slippery eyes, turning his bones slightly, trying to restrain the joy that could not be concealed, and said with a haha: "There, there, brother, I have taken a fancy to the dragon and phoenix cloak in the treasure house, and I won't think of a piece for you." He said this in his mouth, but muttered in his heart: Nima, who doesn't know the abacus in your kid's heart, he has long been eyeing the piece of purple dragon jade pendant on the waist of the prince. Dog stuff, you can't even think about it! It's mine, everything here is mine—

The door of the tomb opened, and the hunchbacked master's waist suddenly straightened.

The lame butler is not lame in his legs. Lisuo went in and out, carried the prince in with the master, and then closed the tomb door with his backhand. There is a torch stuck diagonally on the wall of the tomb in the burial chamber, and the cemetery is spacious but very dry, unlike the dampness of ordinary cemeteries.

The two of them knew everything about the situation and the routes in the cemetery. It didn't take much time to get to the center of the tomb. Then so-so, put the body of the prince into the sarcophagus. The lid of the coffin had not yet been covered, and it was placed diagonally aside, and the master left it alone and prepared to get the treasure.

The butler said, "Hey! Don't worry, let's settle the prince down. He meant that after putting the prince in it, he would cover the sarcophagus and talk about anything else.

But the master seemed to be impatient and said, "Do you want to go?" If you don't go, I'll go? ”

Seeing this, the housekeeper was anxious. didn't bother to take care of the dignity of the prince, so he clapped his hands and said, "Let's go, let's go and get the baby." As he spoke, he quickly overtook his master and walked towards the side chamber on the south side of the tomb where the gold, silver and jewels were hidden. When it was too late, the master glanced at the butler's back fiercely, shook out a dagger that had been prepared a long time ago from his sleeve, and stabbed him fiercely at his vest-

By the time the butler reacted, it was too late, and the dagger stabbed deep into the vest. He turned around slowly, staring at the master with hatred, as if he wanted to kill the other party with his eyes, staring at the master trembling all over, and hurriedly pulled out the dagger - the butler raised it to grab his hand, and after the master pulled out the dagger, he suddenly stagnated in mid-air, his body was like a leaky leather ball, and he suddenly softened, and the blood from his mouth and nose fell to the ground and he couldn't get up again.

The master was afraid that the butler was not dead, so he made up a few more knives on him, and said apologetically: "Butler! I'm sorry. It's a pity that the treasure here belongs to only one person, and that person is me. People die for money, birds die for food, don't blame me, I have to do it as a last resort. With that, the dagger wiped the blood on the butler's clothes, and turned to the sarcophagus.

The prince in the sarcophagus seemed to be asleep, his face was peaceful, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth - looking at the prince's face, the master was slightly shocked, but he didn't have time to think about anything else, his attention was focused on the crystal clear jade pendant on the prince's waist.

Stretching out his hand, he effortlessly pulled the purple dragon jade pendant into his arms, and hurriedly went to the south wall to fumble for the switch to open the door and go out. Just when he got carried away and was about to touch the switch, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart. Something sharp was felt piercing—and a sharp pain spread throughout the body.

The master realized that he had been tricked, but he didn't know whose trick he had hit, and he didn't believe that the butler would resurrect himself to assassinate him. In view of the doubt in his heart, he turned around with all his strength and looked-

Seeing this, the master was stunned! Thousands of calculations, but he didn't expect that he would die in the hands of the prince. In an instant, he seemed to understand everything, the prince faked his death, and then let the two of them kill each other, and finally kill each other-

The prince's face shook violently, and he also said with a hard look: "You can go, only you go first." I was relieved...... "Later, what the prince said, the master couldn't hear clearly."

The prince looked at the two corpses that fell to the ground and smiled with satisfaction. Tremblingly, he took out a delicate and small medicine bottle from his arms, and sighed: This medicine really works, but it's a pity that it can't make me immortal! He sighed for a while, and resolutely took out the purple dragon jade pendant from his master's arms and hung it on his waist again. Staggered to the sarcophagus, and when he was about to lie down, he suddenly remembered something.

I saw him stretch out his index finger, use all his strength, and bite down - write a few words on the lid of the coffin: three-foot forbidden land, nothing can enter, if this order is violated, the gods and ghosts are angry, the new marriage thirteen, and the resurrection.

By the time he had finished writing this, he had run out of oil lamps, and before he had time to straighten his clothes, he fell headlong into the sarcophagus and lay on his back until he was completely out of breath.

At this point, the old man paused—good fellow, his lips were dry, and he really needed to rest and drink his saliva.

The four people who were absent-minded before, with the development and trend of the story, also thought of Johnson's pictures, and listened to them with relish. Seeing that there was no follow-up, they all asked anxiously, "What happened later?" ”

The old man sighed heavily and said, "Poor, two servants, who want to calculate the master's property, but are asked for their lives by the master, and they have to be by the master's side in death." And the blood of the two of them crossed along the groove set up inside the cemetery, naturally forming a circle and becoming a cordon. Anyone who crosses the line formed by the blood will die, whether it is a human being or any other living being. ”

Looking at the old man's understatement, there is a faint feeling of coolness, which invades everyone's heart. There was a moment of silence, and everyone's facial expressions were changing subtly.

"We didn't ask about that, we wanted to know what happened to the cemetery." Zhou Neng said in a hurry.

The old man furrowed his eyebrows and said, "Alas! This story has been passed down for more than 1,000 years. I heard from my grandfather that a group of people came here later, as if they were doing surveys or something. There are five people in total, and they should have learned from the history books that there is a prince with a lot of money in Shicheng. died silently, and seemed to have disappeared from this world, along with his rich wealth. So the five of them found this ancient tomb according to the clues they found, and the five of them had rich experience in surveying, so they found the tomb door without much effort. ”

Jiang Sen listened nervously to this, and couldn't help but interrupt the old man's words: "Is there one named Jiang Hanmiao among them?" ”

The old man shook his head with a complicated look from Jiang Sen, "I don't know, anyway, after they went in, they didn't see it." ”

"Is there a mechanism in there?" Xiao Xin said curiously.

The old man just shook his head and refused to answer. A very helpless, sad look. I originally wanted to stop these young people, but after listening to this story, not only did they not dispel the idea of wanting to visit the ancient tomb, but they became more and more interested!
