Chapter 138. Mandrill Demon Corpse (2)
Copper coffins are generally divided into two uses in the hands of yin and yang, one is the bronze coffin, which is generally used to seal powerful zombies, and the other is the brass coffin, which is generally used to seal the corpses of very powerful demons. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
As for why the bronze coffin is used to seal the zombies, and the brass coffin is used to seal the demon corpse, I don't know, anyway, the ancestors of the past generations of immortals have done this, speaking of which, some people may ask, what is there to seal the corpse of the demon, everyone is already dead, and the corpse of the person is sealed?
The corpse of the ordinary little monster is not so painstakingly cleaned up, only the kind of big demon clan that was once a disaster and cultivated to an unfathomable level is qualified to be sealed in a brass coffin after death, and even the huge butterfly demon on the mountain behind our school was only hastily suppressed in the sarcophagus.
The "Complete Collection of Demon Books", which has a detailed record of the demon clan, says: "The big demon, destroy his body, destroy his soul, and have a white body for thousands of years, then he will transform the demon corpse and cultivate to the sky, and the non-immortal will not be defeated." ”
It means that the big monster with a strong cultivation, even if he destroys his body and soul, but as long as his body is still there, the corpse of the monster will turn into a demon corpse after thousands of years, and once this kind of demon corpse is refined, I am afraid that no one can deal with it except for the immortal family.
And why the demon corpse is so powerful, a very important reason is the demon pill, the cultivation of a powerful demon clan will conjure up the crystallization of its mana, that is, the demon pill, the existence of the demon pill is a bit similar to the golden pill period in the immortal cultivator, can conjure up the golden pill in the body, once the demon clan is killed but the body is still preserved, the ownerless demon pill in its body will absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, and over time it will have its own will, and control the body of the original owner, becoming a terrifying demon corpse, this demon corpse is a creature between life and death, and the cultivation is extremely powerful, Ordinary mortal Dao spells are ineffective against him, and the only ones who can kill him are the legendary immortals.
So as soon as I heard that the brass coffin that sealed the demon corpse was found on the outskirts of the provincial capital, I and everyone present were stunned, where did this brass coffin come from!
"Dao Chief, where is that brass coffin now!" I hurriedly grabbed the anxious old Taoist and asked loudly.
Uncle, where is there a big demon clan with a demon pill in Zhongzhou now, even Wang Laohu and the colorful pan gourd have not yet reached the point of metamorphosis with the demon pill! But what I'm most worried about now is not the origin of the brass coffin, I'm worried that if there are really demon corpses inside, those second-class mortals want to open the coffin under the banner of scientific research, then it's all over!
"I heard that the brass coffin has now been taken away by the police, and it is said that the brass coffin should be an antiquity, and the police seem to be going to hand it over to the Provincial Institute of Archaeology."
What came out of the mouth of the old Taoist priest was the worst news, and it was strange that the old scholars of those research institutes didn't want to try their best to open the brass coffin!
I hurriedly took out my mobile phone and dialed Fan Hanlun's number......
When I led the Venerable Master Huayin to the Provincial Institute of Archaeology, the sun was already setting in the west, and Professor Lu Huishan of the Institute of Archaeology was waiting for us at the door with Fan Hanlun.
I sent Luo Tianyin to guard the tea house, the Hokkaido people were too old to go out, I also asked him to stay in the tea house, and then pulled the Zhuang Ding Huayin Master at the scene and hurriedly took a taxi to the Provincial Institute of Archaeology.
"Do you know where the brass coffin came from!?" As soon as he saw us, Lu Huishan rushed up to me like a relative, like the People's Liberation Army, and asked me excitedly.
"What happened to the coffin?"
I saw that the middle-aged professor in front of me had a haggard face and a frightened expression, as if he had experienced something terrible.
"Talk as you go!" The old professor anxiously took me by the hand and walked into the institute and told me what had happened in vain.
It turned out that in the afternoon, after the police handed over the brass coffin to the Institute of Archaeology, Lu Huishan organized people to inspect the brass coffin.
First of all, through the scientific research of carbon 14 to the brass coffin was examined, it was determined that this coffin is about 800 years ago antiquities, Lu Huishan did a lifetime of archaeological work, the first time to see a coffin made of brass, this made this obsessed with archaeological research people extremely excited, to figure out the age of the coffin, he is now eager to know who the owner of the coffin is.
"Where was this coffin found?"
Putting on a research coat and wearing rubber gloves, Lu Huishan asked his assistant.
The assistant, who also changed into work clothes, replied, "This copper coffin was sent by the police, and they said that they received a call from the police, and someone found a copper coffin on Dalong Mountain in the suburbs, and the police suspect that this coffin should have been dropped by tomb robbers during the process of transportation, after all, the mountain road in Dalong Mountain is very difficult to walk."
After listening to the assistant's description, Lu Huishan frowned, just looking at the surface of the brass coffin, it was difficult for him to determine whose resting place this coffin belonged to, archaeological research, the most troublesome thing is to encounter this kind of unknown thing.
Since there is no evidence outside that can prove the identity of the owner in this coffin, the coffin can only be opened.
Just when Lu Huishan was about to start the coffin, he suddenly remembered that it was said that those zombies or corpses that were going to be transformed would be sealed in the copper coffin, would it cause big trouble if he opened it so boldly?
But soon Lu Huishan dispelled this idea, first of all, this statement is mostly rumors or novels, not worth believing, besides, this bronze coffin has gone through nearly eight hundred years, even if there is really a zombie lying inside, I am afraid that it has already become a dry skeleton by now.
Thinking of this, Lu Huishan and his assistant tried their best to push the heavy copper coffin lid open, but the heavy coffin lid was so easy to push, and the ordinary wooden coffin lid was nearly a hundred catties, not to mention this kind of solid copper coffin!
Just when Lu Huishan and his assistants were busy looking for tools to open the coffin, a dull sound suddenly came from inside the coffin, as if someone was pounding the heavy coffin in the copper coffin, and the vibration caused by the knocking on the copper coffin even made Lu Huishan and the others standing outside feel a tremor from the ground under their feet.
The sudden change made everyone present break out in a cold sweat, Lu Huishan's forehead was instantly covered with cold sweat at this time, he had participated in archaeological work for so many years, and it was the first time he encountered this situation, and he had never been so afraid when he excavated the tomb of Princess Yuling of Gongzi Showa Xianguo.
"Professor, that, that, the voice is, it came from the bronze coffin, right?" An assistant covered in cold sweat asked in a trembling voice, pointing to the brass coffin.
As if to answer his question, the brass coffin made another dull noise, and this time more pronounced than the previous one.
"Is there a living person in there?" A female staff member asked, leaning against the door.
This question was denied as soon as it appeared in Lu Huishan's mind, just now he studied outside the coffin for half a day, and found that the edge of this copper coffin was very smooth, and there was no trace of being sliding, that is to say, the lid of this coffin had not been opened for nearly eight hundred years, and the only person who made that sound inside was the owner of the coffin!
