Chapter 117: 5-6 The sharp knife in the hand VS the momentum in the eyes
When he was still doing various internships at Master Changfeng's house, Coco first came into contact with an old dried corpse, which was a male corpse unearthed in the Tang Dynasty, wearing bright armor armor, his feet were cut off, but he was wearing combat boots and was placed together, his head was completely unscarred, and every piece of clothing on his body was a precious cultural relic, which was broken when touched, and even the strength of the shaking was calculated during transportation, and he was afraid that the precious armor sent to the inspection office had been shaken into pieces, and the archaeological institute was very entangled in how to take off the armor at that time. But Old Man Chang was ordered to find out the cause of the death of the male corpse as soon as possible, but Coco still remembered the scene when the master Old Man Chang was standing there, arguing with the director of the archaeological department who sent him for inspection. One said that if I don't take off my armor, how can I find the scars on my body? One said that the armor must be taken off, but we are still discussing the specific plan for dealing with it, isn't it that both feet have been cut off? Is that not a cause of death?
The dispute went all the way from "how long will it take for you to get down the battle armor", unconsciously evolved into "your archaeological work is to move slowly, and if there are chemical changes in the corpse, you can't find the cause of death", and then slowly turned into "people are dead, they are not in a hurry, what is your forensic doctor anxious about"...... So much so that the two of them didn't pay attention to what the coco kid next to them was doing, and by the time the archaeological director began to howl, Xun Keran had already inserted the silver needle into the stomach of the dried corpse through the gap in the battle armor.
"Xiaoxun, what are you doing?" Master Chang Feng is calmer.
Coco gestured to the head of the dried corpse, "Teeth, discolored." ”
The master is the master after all, and the coco child's thoughts were understood as soon as she heard it, she guessed that this person might have been poisoned from the unusual color of the dried corpse's teeth, and the old man calmly grabbed the archaeological director who wanted to pounce on him to stop it, and then watched Coco slowly pull out the silver needle, and the needle part had turned black.
"I didn't remove my armor." Coco smiles, emphasized.
The head of the archaeological department gasped, but Chang Feng's words made him almost angry. "That's right, the armor hasn't been removed, and we've found a reasonable preliminary guess of the cause of death, but the dried corpse's stomach hasn't moved for thousands of years, and now it has a small hole, and the gas in it will slowly leak out."
Coco continued his thoughts, "When the gas leaks out, the stomach will flatten, so the armor can collapse at any time." ”
Master Chang Feng looked at the archaeological director and smiled kindly, "You still have 24 hours to peel off the armor, otherwise don't come and cry to me when there is only a pile of fragments left after the collapse." ”
In the end, the director of the archaeological department was stunned for a few seconds, and finally shouted, "You master and apprentice are both devils!" "I ran all the way out to gather men.
The master came over and patted little Coco on the head, "Good job!" Let your wife cook fish for you to eat at night! Quack! ”
Coco remembered the smug laughter of the master at that time, and couldn't help but laugh.
"Taijun, please don't let out such weird laughter for no reason on this occasion, okay!" Li Yiji's voice grabbed Coco's thoughts. At this time, the group of them, including their uncle, the "cousin" Leopard, Zhang Huan from the Archaeological Institute, and the benevolent brother who had not said a word with a bad face, had just passed through the strange stone mechanism and entered the tomb.
The coldness in the graveyard was beyond Coco's imagination, and she didn't even feel that the morgue was as cold and oppressive as it was here. Even though there is no water, the soles of my feet often feel slippery and greasy, and the stone walls feel a piercing cold. Although the breathing was relatively smooth, there was not a trace of wind in the air.
Uncle often glanced back at Coco's expression, and when he turned back again, he couldn't help asking, "Little Coco, your expression is changeable enough, what do you want?" ”
"Huh? I'm savoring the essence of a day trip to the tombs. Coco smiled inexplicably, thinking of the demon path mentioned by her uncle before, her heart sank unconsciously again, saying that it was false to say that she was not worried, and it was not voluntary for her to come here, and she clearly told her uncle that it was to track down the truth of the martyrdom, but she can't be sure whether the martyrdom is a fact or a story, but secretly it was transported by her uncle in an antique coffin with an unknown medicine, or everything that my uncle said was a lie, and the real purpose was nothing more than to coax and trick herself into going to that magic path, thinking of this, Coco even felt, whether the uncle and the other three met on a narrow road, or whether it had been arranged earlier, has become uncertain.
――――――――――――――――――――――――
"That's it." The leopard stopped, Coco looked up, and with the help of the flashlight in her hand, she saw a three-way intersection in front of her. The three side-by-side entrances were opened in front of him, making Coco a little confused.
"The crystallization of the wisdom of the ancient people," explained my uncle, "is the culmination of a mechanism that is pushed open almost simultaneously on the three passages, so that a stone door can be opened in the middle passage. ”
Coco frowned, silently thinking about who did his uncle cooperate with before to pass through this stone gate? Before she could figure it out, she heard her uncle whisper in her ear, "The left passage leads to the left ear room, where there is the ...... in the photo."
"Hey! What are you muttering! The leopard snorted, squeezed between the two, looked at his uncle, then at Coco, and then pulled her over, "The little girl walks with me to the right." Uncle just wanted to stop it, but in an instant, he saw that the sword with cold light was already shaking in front of him, "Uncle, why can't you trust my nephew?" Give me a chance to get acquainted with my cousin and sister! ”
In the reflection of the blade, Coco could see that his uncle's expression was as calm as water, and he couldn't see the bottom deeply.
The leopard probably felt bored, put away his knife, and pointed to the right side, "Zhang Huan, Junzi, you go to the left." Then he took a deep look at his uncle, who was still standing there, and pulled Coco into the road on the right.
The entrance behind him is getting farther and farther away, the stone wall is still cold to the touch, and there is a fierce "cousin" with a sharp knife walking behind him, but Coco doesn't want to say a word, but the leopard seems to have to get closer, "Eh, girl, what's your name?" What can be? ”
"Li Keran." Words are like gold.
"Where's home?"
"S City."
"What's your mother's name?"
Coco paused, turned his head and squinted at the leopard, without saying a word, the man felt as if he was saying a bit foul, "I mean, that, you, your mother's surname?" ”
Coco pouted and smiled, "What are your family names interested in?" ”
The leopard was deflated and unwillingly crushed the ground with its foot.
"I know you're curious," Coco continued to grope for the stone wall in the hallway, "I'm a girl, why would I come to a place like this unless I'm greedy for money, right?" ”
The leopard behind him blinked and did not squeak.
"Brother Leopard," Coco's voice suddenly became sweet, "have you ever tried spending the night with 20 corpses scattered in the mud?" ”
The leopard's pace froze.
"I tried." Coco turned around and looked at him gently, "I also took them back by identifying their scattered severed hands and feet, and then rounded some of the deformed faces again, you know, medical school and this is the same unique smell......"
"Stop! Stop! What do you want to say......" The leopard didn't notice that his feet took a step back.
The reflection of the sharp knife in the leopard's hand made Coco's face a little gloomy and blue, "I'm studying medicine, and you think that the terrifying tomb exploration is like a summer field practice class for me, understand?" ”
The leopard nodded silently, suddenly regretting why he wanted to go alone with this little sister who seemed to be a good bully.
