Chapter 172: The Coffin at the Top of the Tower
Suddenly, the ceiling above the head moved, and there was a sound of the machine shaft turning, and a large rectangular box fell from the middle of the square ceiling, which happened to fall under the screen.
The two of them were frightened and frightened, stunned for a long time, and felt a cool breeze rushing up their backbones until they reached the top of their heads.
Xu Xingji scratched his scalp and said, "Your inference is really correct, but who put the coffin here?" ”
Youyou said: "I don't know, but we'll know when we open it in front of us." ”
Although Xu Xingxian is not very good at opening the coffin, he is still very good at the use of many instruments, the four sides and corners of this crystal coffin are inlaid with gold frames, tightly seamless, and there is no keyhole, only four round holes, Xu Xingxian knows how to open this structure, he has learned it in Tianshu Pavilion.
To open this coffin, you need to use four iron rods of the same thickness, first insert the two iron rods into the crystal coffin's two parallel gold borders, open them outward, and then insert the other two gold frames, these four gold borders are stacked on top of each other, and the outermost layer cannot be opened without opening the outermost layer first.
I looked around and found that the most suitable was the fence strip on the stairs, which was rough but could be used improvised.
According to the method Xu Xingxian said, the two inserted the iron bar into the hole and activated the mechanism on the coffin, and sure enough, as soon as the coffin lid was loosened, the coffin was opened! The two of them were moving upward......
"Click......"
Suddenly hearing this voice, You Youle and Xu Xingxian hurriedly stopped their movements, and listened carefully, the sound actually came from inside the coffin!
The two of them carried the coffin lid, and at this time the coffin lid had opened a three-finger-wide slit, and the inside of the coffin could be vaguely seen.
"Click......"
The sound came from the coffin of the crystal coffin, and cracks opened on the coffin, as if some mechanism had been touched to cause the coffin to crack.
Xu Xingji said: "It's not good, you carry the coffin lid and don't move, if you don't make it, we both will die here!" ”
Youyou said: "What's wrong? ”
Xu Xingji said: "This crystal coffin is double-layered, with a sandwich in the middle, I am afraid that there is a very volatile fog acid in this sandwich, once the coffin is broken, don't talk about us, even this layer will be corroded by fog acid!" ”
Youyoule was sweating profusely, and he didn't feel heavy carrying this coffin lid just now, but at this time, the coffin lid seemed to be weighing a thousand pounds.
"So what to do?" Youyou Fun Road.
"Squat down and see what's in the coffin!" Xu Xingxian raised his hands above his head and looked into the coffin through the gap.
There was a corpse in the gloomy green coffin, this corpse was lying flat in the coffin, but his hands were actually raised, and he seemed to be grasping the coffin lid!
"What's going on?" Youyou was shocked.
Xu Xingji said: "Don't panic, this is not a corpse, it's just that his hand is fixed on the coffin lid, you see that there seems to be something in his hand!" ”
Youyoule looked at it and said, "Indeed, he is holding something in his hand." ”
Xu Xingji said: "You take it out!" ”
Youyoule's face was very embarrassed, and said, "Me? ”
Xu Xingji said: "You are on his side, not you or me?" Hurry up, less nonsense, or we'll all have to die here if we can't hold on! ”
Youyoule pursed his lips and prayed in his heart: I hope what he is holding in his hand is the treasure scroll, and I hope he doesn't hold it too tightly......
Youyoule put his hand into the coffin, this distance still needs to be probed forward, otherwise it is difficult to reach, at this time Youyoule has been able to see the face of the corpse with his peripheral vision, but he didn't dare to look, forced fear and curiosity, and whispered to himself, don't look at him, don't look at him, he must have died peacefully, he should be massaged in heaven at this time, yes, yes, don't go back to your soul......
Youyoule has already touched the treasure scroll in the hand of the corpse, dragged it, and found that the corpse was still a little tight, at this time, Youyoule's other hand carrying the coffin was already a little unable to support it, and it was likely that he would accidentally get his other arm stuck in it when the coffin was gone.
"Let go, we just want the treasure scroll of the Instrument Spirit, and we will put your old coffin back." Youyoule muttered, the corpse seemed to be heard, his hand was loosened, and he almost let Youyoule sit down, and he moved back a few steps in a row before Youyoule stabilized the coffin lid, and then looked at his hand, and sure enough, it was a very precise iron book.
"Put it down carefully!"
The two carefully closed the coffin lid and pulled out the iron rod, and then they were relieved.
Youyoule looked at the iron book in his hand and said, "This must be Lei Tianxin, this iron book is a treasure scroll, and we found it!" ”
Xu Xingji said: "That's right, this person must be Lei Tianxin, I didn't expect that the people outside thought that he had left Tianshu Pavilion, but I didn't expect to arrange his coffin here." ”
You Youle said: "It's really unimaginable, it seems that this person's wisdom is far greater than that of his enemy, you see that the treasure scroll is still in his hands." ”
Xu Xingzhi said: "Lei Tianxin is indeed not simple, after his death, he also set up a hurdle in his coffin, I guess he doesn't want the treasure scroll to fall into the hands of others, and he doesn't want the treasure scroll to fall into the world, so he thought of such a way, he must have expected that someone from Tianshu Pavilion would be able to find this place in the future, and only someone from Tianshu Pavilion could crack this mechanism, and this coffin was designed to only open a trace of cracks, just to let people only take out the treasure scroll and not touch his body, and sure enough, he calculated it everywhere." ”
"What is the secret in this treasure scroll that attracts many people to fight for it?" Youyoule unfolded the treasure scroll, but found that there was a piece of paper inside, Youyoule took out this piece of paper, spread it on the ground and compared it with the iron scroll, and said, "What is written on this?" Why can't I understand it? ”
Xu Xingxian picked up the iron roll and looked at it, the iron roll is composed of movable diamond blocks, which are connected by soft wires and can change positions freely.
Xu Xingxian fiddled with it, and found that the changes in the diamond blocks in this iron roll are regular, as long as one of them changes its position, the other corresponding pieces will also change, and simply compared it with the paper, and found that as long as you dial a few of the diamond iron rolls, there will be a corresponding paragraph or a picture......
Xu Xingji said: "This thing is so exquisitely made, but it's a pity that I can understand too little of it, and it takes time to understand it." ”
Youyoule picked up the piece of paper and looked at it: "This piece of paper must have been written on it by Lei Tianxin's own enlightened heart before he died." ”
Youyou opened the paper folded on both sides and found that a line of small characters was written in the corner of the reverse side, and there was a simple image drawn with a pen in the middle.
