Chapter 15: The Hidden Organs
After working for a long time, Du Yuesheng saw a set of coffins, and his heart was suddenly mixed with sadness. The joy is that the coffin is dug up, which shows that the owner of the tomb is either a dignitary or a wealthy businessman, because in the old days, the poor would never be buried in a coffin, which cost both money and manpower, so it can be basically concluded that there are absolutely good things in this tomb. Sadly, it has taken a lot of effort to open this heavy coffin lid now, and there is still a coffin in front of you, and it seems that it will take a lot of trouble to get the contents of the coffin.
Taking a sharp breath, Du Yuesheng picked up the pickaxe, pried open a crack in the inner coffin according to the previous method, and motioned to Wu Zhiyuan to lift the lid of the coffin together. The two shouted the trumpet, and it was a hard lifting before the lid of the inner coffin was lifted aside.
Wu Zhiyuan and Du Yuesheng looked at each other and smiled, not to mention getting the funeral goods, just by successfully opening the coffin lid, the two of them had a great sense of achievement. But the next scene suddenly made the smiles of the two freeze, as if they had been poured a basin of cold water.
Under the bright moonlight, another coffin appeared in front of him, and there was actually another coffin in this inner coffin!
"What's going on?" Wu Zhiyuan looked at Du Yuesheng, his face full of doubts.
"Impossible, this can't be ......" Du Yuesheng shook her head, muttered to herself, and fell into deep thought.
"Big brother, pinch me!" Du Yuesheng suddenly stared at Wu Zhiyuan with a frightened face, his eyes confused and full of fear.
"What are you doing?" Wu Zhiyuan looked at him strangely and didn't make any moves.
"Are we being tricked?" Du Yuesheng looked at Wu Zhiyuan in disbelief, wanting to get a little faith in his eyes to persevere.
"It's just three sets of coffins, and you're scared like this?" Wu Zhiyuan has wandered on the edge of life and death, and has also seen ghosts and supernatural existences, he believes that there are many things in this world that cannot be explained by common sense, but there is nothing special in his eyes about the current coffins.
Du Yuesheng simply squatted on the ground, pondering, and after a while, he stood up suddenly, spat at the palm of his hand, picked up the pickaxe and smashed it towards the coffin lid.
"Fuck! Lao Tzu doesn't believe in this evil! Du Yuesheng scolded, no longer pried open the crack of the coffin and then lifted the lid as before, but angrily wanted to smash the coffin lid directly with a pickaxe.
The coffin was really made of high-quality wood, and Du Yuesheng smashed two pickaxes hard, but only smashed two shallow holes in the coffin lid.
Du Yuesheng threw the pickaxe aside, sat on the ground with his ass, panting heavily, his physique really couldn't do heavy work.
Wu Zhiyuan took the pickaxe and gently pried the coffin lid, and the coffin was easily pried open, and with a "bang", the coffin lid fell to the side.
Du Yuesheng hurriedly got up and looked inside the coffin, suddenly gasped, and sat on the ground again in disappointment.
At the same time, Wu Zhiyuan also got a glimpse of the situation inside the coffin, and saw that the coffin, which could accommodate one person to lie flat, was empty and empty. Don't say anything about the funeral goods, not even a single corpse!
It's an empty coffin!
"Big brother, forget it, let's go." Du Yuesheng is like a frosted eggplant, and the excitement and momentum when she first arrived are gone.
But suddenly, Wu Zhiyuan discovered the abnormality of the entire coffin, he used a pickaxe to push the coffin in the innermost coffin, and found that no matter how much strength he used, the smallest coffin in the innermost coffin did not move at all!
It makes sense for Wu Zhiyuan to push the smallest coffin inside, because this coffin is the smallest in size, and it is undoubtedly the lightest of the three coffins, and it is much easier to push it compared to the two outside, but now it does not move at all.
An idea flashed in Wu Zhiyuan's heart, and in order to verify the authenticity of this idea, he used his greatest strength to push the coffin in the middle, and sure enough, it was not moving.
The outermost coffin must not have been pushed because its entire coffin was still embedded in the earth. But the two coffins inside are set together, and there is enough space between them, so why can't they push it?
"Something is wrong...... Yuesheng, come and see. Wu Zhiyuan looked at the three coffins together, but at this time, Du Yuesheng was climbing the wall of the pit dug out and crawling towards the ground.
Wu Zhiyuan fully understands Du Yuesheng's mood, even if he is a professional tomb robber with high psychological quality, after the toss of these three sets of coffins, he will not be able to bear it, not to mention that he found that the inner coffin was still empty, so it would be strange if he was not disheartened.
And the reason why Wu Zhiyuan was able to calm down and observe carefully was only because he came to help Du Yuesheng, and he didn't care about whether there was a treasure in the coffin, so he wouldn't stop because he was hit by the discovery of the empty coffin.
"There's something strange about this coffin!" Wu Zhiyuan grabbed Du Yuesheng's ankle and pulled him down.
"Big brother, it seems that God is playing tricks on me, don't dig it, let's find another way to deal with money." Du Yuesheng turned around and climbed towards the top again.
"Yuesheng! Let's take a look! Wu Zhiyuan shouted angrily, and Du Yuesheng had no choice but to turn around and look at the strange three sets of coffins.
"What's weird?" Except that this is a series of empty coffins, Du Yuesheng doesn't see anything unusual.
"I suspect that the three coffins are one." Wu Zhiyuan reached out and touched the bottom of the inner coffin.
"One? So what? It's all empty anyway. Du Yuesheng lazily asked and answered himself.
"Sure enough, it's one!" Wu Zhiyuan took out his hand, carefully touched it just now, and fully confirmed his opinion. The reason why the two coffins inside can't be pushed at all is because the three coffins are all one, and they all use the same coffin bottom. If you want to push any of these coffins, it is equivalent to pushing these three coffins, and it is naturally impossible to push a single bit.
"All three coffins use the same baseplate?" Du Yuesheng's face was full of consternation.
"Well, what do you mean by the person who went into the coffin back then?" Wu Zhiyuan already has his own opinion on this coffin bureau in his heart, but he just wants to know Du Yuesheng's opinion.
"Could it be...... What is the person in the coffin trying to hide? Du Yuesheng pondered for a moment, as if she had an understanding.
"Yes, if I'm right, the real tomb is under these three coffins." Wu Zhiyuan suddenly picked up the pickaxe and slammed it down on the bottom of the inner coffin.
Wu Zhiyuan's strength is not comparable to Du Yuesheng's, and at the same time, the bottom plate of the coffin is not as thick as the coffin lid.
The "click" sound was obviously the sound of a pickaxe smashing through the bottom of the coffin, but the muffled sound of the "bang" was very similar to the sound of a pickaxe hitting an empty stone slab.
The two couldn't help but glance at each other in amazement, and sighed. Wu Zhiyuan continued to pick up the pickaxe, smashed it a few times in succession, the bottom plate of the coffin was completely broken, and the scene under the bottom plate was clearly exposed to the bright moonlight and the vision of the two.
