Chapter Seventy-Two: The Hidden Tomb Door
Li Huiyan is right, the Yang family brothers and sisters closest to us are indeed not a big problem.
These two siblings, one has a free and easy personality, and the other has a cold personality and doesn't care about anything, but these two people are the best to deal with.
On the contrary, I don't know much about Liu Laoqi, but I can't figure out his personality and temper.
To tell the truth, Liu Laoqi has always been very friendly to us, not only when I was my own person, but also told us a lot of my old stories from the bottom of my heart, and even gave me an extremely precious talisman made of thousand-year-old peach wood when we separated.
Although Liu Laoqi treated us like this, I knew very well that the premise of him doing all this was that he regarded me as an apprentice of his friend the one-armed king. If we didn't have this relationship, I'm afraid that I wouldn't have let my subordinates save us from the pool at all.
"Let's not think about Liu Laoqi's problem first, let's tell the Yang family brothers and sisters about this matter for the time being, if they are willing to hide it for us, and then cooperate when necessary, there will definitely be no problem." I thought about it and said to Li Huiyan.
Yang Baichuan has also said that he met Liu Laoqi ten years ago, and it can be seen from his performance that his impression of Liu Laoqi is not too deep.
As for Liu Laoqi, it is unknown if he still remembers the brothers and sisters of the Yang family.
"Well, that's all I have to do now." Li Huiyan said when she heard this, and seemed to think that it would be safer to do so.
I told the Yang brothers and sisters about it first, as for Liu Laoqi, as long as the Yang brothers and sisters are willing to cooperate, I believe it will be easy to get by.
After making up our minds, Li Huiyan and I walked out from behind the coffin and walked side by side to the Yang brothers and sisters.
"Rice cake, what are you whispering to you and Sister Li Zi hiding behind the coffin again?" Seeing us walk out from behind the coffin, Xiao Yue smiled with a thief's expression.
I didn't have time to pay attention to her, so I rolled my eyes and walked straight to the place where the Yang brothers and sisters were.
"Brother Baichuan, I have something I want to tell you." Walking in front of Yang Baichuan, I hesitated slightly, and finally said hard.
"Everyone is a friend, if there is anything about the third brother, just say it."
Hearing Xiao Yue's words, Yang Baichuan also couldn't stop laughing, maybe he noticed that the expression on my face was a little serious and dignified, so he restrained his smile and said.
Although Yang Yuqing didn't speak, she was also standing aside and looking at me with interest.
Although I discussed with Li Huiyan just now, I really wanted to tell the matter in front of the Yang family brothers and sisters, and I was a little hesitant. I was a little worried that if the Yang brothers and sisters refused to cooperate with us and lied, what should we do?
"What's wrong? Is there anything unspeakable about the three-year brother? Seeing that I didn't speak for a long time, Yang Baichuan asked again.
"That, here's the thing......" I was in my heart, and finally told the Yang brothers and sisters the ins and outs of the matter.
After finishing speaking, I felt that my whole body was like a deflated ball, shrugging my head, and I didn't know what the Yang family brothers and sisters would react next.
"So that's the case, Brother San, you have no choice but to do this, how do you want us to help you?" Yang Baichuan nodded when he heard this, and then asked.
"Actually, it's very simple, Brother Baichuan said before that you know Liu Laoqi, I was thinking that in case Liu Laoqi recognized you as the apprentice of the one-armed king, I just hope you don't expose our lies, and the others don't need to say anything." I said.
"Well, let's do it." Yang Baichuan said without thinking about it.
Hearing Yang Baichuan's words, I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, I imagined countless possible outcomes in my mind, the worst is that the Yang brothers and sisters will turn against us, and the best may be that they will agree to hide it for us after being embarrassed.
I never thought that Yang Baichuan would agree so happily and didn't seem to care about what we said.
"Brother Baichuan, I heard you right, did you really agree?" I was worried that I had heard it wrong, so I reconfirmed.
"What's this, it's a little thing." Yang Baichuan smiled and said, then pulled me aside, leaned over his head and whispered: "I can already see that you have a leg with Li Huiyan, if you feel that you can't go, give me the phone number of the other classmate as compensation." ”
I couldn't laugh or cry, and I promised in a row, what I thought should be a huge headache, and finally ended with such a comedic ending.
After that, Yang Baichuan told me about the so-called master-apprentice relationship between them and the one-armed king.
It turned out that the Yang family brothers and sisters and the one-armed king were only nominally a master-apprentice relationship, because an elder of the Yang family had a great favor to the one-armed king, so he asked him to help teach the Yang family brothers and sisters kung fu for a few years, which can be regarded as two clear.
The matter was settled, and the big stone that had been pressing on my heart since just now finally landed, and even the whole mood was a lot happier.
Then the five of us again focused all our attention on the coffin in the middle of the burial chamber.
"Colonel Hua, you said that there is a tomb door hidden in this coffin, so what should we do to find it." After a few glances at the coffin, I asked Li Huiyan.
"Didn't someone already tell us how?" Li Huiyan smiled and said.
"Someone has already told us how? Who is it? I was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized, "You mean the person who made these scratches on the stone platform?" ”
Li Huiyan nodded and said, "I just observed these scratches, if I am not mistaken, these scratches are rotated from left to right, we only need to rotate the coffin for a week according to this method." ”
I don't know how Li Huiyan saw the direction of rotation of these scratches, since she dared to say it so confidently, it means that she has a certain degree of certainty, and I didn't ask anything.
When I was talking to Li Huiyan, Yang Baichuan began to grope around his body again.
After a while, he found twelve more short incense sticks, lit them with a lighter, and inserted them in the four directions of the coffin.
Smelling the faint fragrance coming out of the short incense after it burned, I suddenly felt extremely calm, obviously these short incense taken out by Yang Baichuan was a little unusual.
Every time Yang Baichuan inserted a short incense in one direction, he would respectfully bow to the coffin three times, and after he finally inserted the last three pillars of incense in the direction of the tomb door, Yang Baichuan knelt directly on the ground and kowtowed three times.
The deceased is the biggest, and we didn't think much about it after seeing this, and followed Yang Baichuan to kowtow to the coffin three times.
Although I don't know what Yang Baichuan's intention is, I don't think he will do it for no reason.
Bang, when we all stood up, we suddenly heard a soft sound from inside the coffin, as if something was falling.
"Without further ado, let's get started, we must get out of here before these requiems are burned." Yang Baichuan turned his head and said to us.
Subsequently, the five of us were divided into two teams, Yang Baichuan and I worked together to push the head of the coffin, and the three girls Li Huiyan, Xiao Yue and Yang Yuqing were responsible for pushing the tail of the coffin.
I thought that the coffin was so large and heavy that it would be very difficult to push, but I didn't expect that it would be done in just a few moments, and it didn't take much effort at all.
After pushing the coffin back into its position, I casually glanced at the green-haired zongzi in the main coffin through the gap in the coffin lid, and was surprised to find that the green hair on his face had disappeared, and it looked no different from an ordinary dead corpse at this time.
"Brother Baichuan, what's going on?" I asked Yang Baichuan.
"Oh, it's actually quite simple. The reason why zongzi became zongzi is because he has two scattered gases on his body, one is anger and the other is resentment. The requiem incense I had just lit around the coffin was to temporarily suppress the anger on his body, and each of us kowtowed to the coffin, and pushed the coffin that had been turned back into the coffin, which happened to eliminate his resentment. Yang Baichuan said slowly.
"So, he's no threat to us, right?" I asked again.
"No, it's only temporary, we have to get out of here. You all heard the sound coming from the coffin just now, if I'm not mistaken, it should be the sound of the green-haired zongzi's arm falling on the bottom of the coffin. Yang Baichuan shook his head and said.
"Once a dead body has been turned into a rice dumpling, unless they are completely burned to ashes with fire, they will come back to life as soon as they come into contact with the smell of the living. The incense I just lit only temporarily cut us off from the smell of life, and we must leave here before the incense is finished. ”
Yang Baichuan's words startled me, the green-haired zongzi just now almost came to life quietly, it was really thrilling.
After the coffin was turned back into its position by our joint efforts, there was finally a reaction in the burial chamber, and a slight mechanical sound of clicking came from the corner of the left rear of the burial chamber.
When we heard the noise, we all walked over. I saw that in the corner where there were only a few broken clay pots, there was an extra narrow tomb door that was not there at this time.
"Wow, there really is a tomb door here, Sister Lizi, you are so powerful." Seeing the tomb door that suddenly appeared, Xiao Yue's eyes flashed into Venus, and said to Li Huiyan.
Li Huiyan smiled and did not speak.
I watched quietly from the sidelines, and I was also extremely surprised in my heart, I didn't have much confidence in Li Huiyan's words, but I didn't expect to be really right by her. quietly glanced at Li Huiyan, and I secretly admired her.
"Let's go, there's no time." Yang Baichuan urged everyone.
I turned around and was startled when I accidentally saw the short incense sticks around the coffin.
"Why does it burn so fast?" Before you knew it, the short incense had burned less than an inch long, and it was still burning at a rapid rate.
I don't know if Yang Baichuan still has a short incense on his body, but since we have found the tomb door, there is no need for us to continue to stay here. If the green-haired zongzi really wakes up, I'm afraid we will have to waste a lot of unnecessary time entangled with him.
Without further ado, I was the first to enter the tomb gate, and the three girls walked in the middle, behind Yang Baichuan's palace.
As soon as everyone entered the tomb door, the tomb door closed with a thud, and several muffled sounds could be heard in the tomb behind them, mixed with a low beast-like roar.
I walked in the front and secretly wiped a cold sweat, fortunately, Yang Baichuan urged in time, otherwise we would really have to entangle with the green-haired zongzi now.
