Chapter 91: There are people in the coffin
Mai Lao looked at them for a moment and said softly, "I'm not optimistic, both of them are injured." "Obviously, Jenny and Martin are both injured, Martin is okay to say that she can recover with a little delay, Jenny is not good, she has a serious leg injury, and she needs to be treated quickly.
"I'm okay with Mai Lao, it's just a little skin injury." Jenny smiled reluctantly, but her pale face had betrayed her, and she looked like a seriously wounded person.
"Don't talk so much, let's get out of here first." Mai Lao greeted us, intending to let us retreat quickly.
"Wait a minute, old Mai, look, the coffin is here." I hurriedly called out to Mai Lao and shone a flashlight forward.
Mai Lao and Chang Shan also turned on the flashlight, walked over slowly, a few of us followed behind them, the six coffins looked eerie under the flashlight, revealing a breath of death, I couldn't help but make my heart tremble a little, unintentionally, I seemed to see a few coffins trembling slightly, but in a blink of an eye, this tremor disappeared, and I don't know if I was dazzled.
"Sure enough, there are six coffins, but why do I always feel a little wrong?" Chang Shan tilted his head and said with some suspicion.
I quickly said, "I don't feel right either, haven't you noticed?" It's relatively safe here compared to the above, I fell down with the ghost Gu people at that time, and I couldn't move when I fell, so it stands to reason that they should take the opportunity to kill me, but they didn't kill me at all, but immediately crawled out, just like running away, very embarrassed. ”
"Also, the appearance of these six coffins is too coincidental, right? The bottom of the cabin suddenly collapsed, and it just so happened that I fell, and I fell right on top of the coffin, how could all this be so coincidental, even if I was lucky enough to catch up, how could I explain the behavior of those two ghost Gu people? ”
"I think you're thinking too much, what's wrong with this, the coffins are all here, is it still wrong? Mai Lao, let's stop wasting time, let's burn this damn coffin quickly. Martin recovered a bit, and his tone was noticeably tougher.
"No, what Zhongyi said is reasonable, that ghost Gu people are bent on killing us, there is no reason why they will let Zhongyi go, and the sudden appearance of these six coffins is indeed strange, there must be something wrong with this, we can't be careless, we have to find out this problem." Chang Shan said decisively.
He said so, and I was even more sure in my heart, there might be some ambush here, or to put it simply, these six coffins are fake at all, they are used to deceive us, and once the coffin is burned, it will lead to death.
Mai Lao didn't speak, but walked to a coffin, first touched the coffin lid lightly with his hand, and then knocked on the coffin lid, and didn't know what he was doing, "There are people in this coffin." Mai Lao tilted his head and said softly.
"Isn't that right, if there are no bodies in the coffin, there will be a problem, aren't we going to burn their bodies, what are you waiting for, let's do it quickly." As he spoke, Martin took the lighter out.
Jiao Ba immediately stretched out his hand to stop him, "Wait, don't you be so reckless?" Do you think that if you are in a hurry, no one else is in a hurry? Be calm and think hard with your head. "He's really unkind, he didn't give Martin any face.
"You... What do you mean by that, I'm also for everyone's good. Martin was a little angry, glared at Jiao Ba and said.
"Since it's for everyone's good, then you should talk less and listen to orders." Jiao Ba glanced at him with contempt, and then walked next to Mai Lao.
He squatted down, and groped in front of the coffin, and sniffed it from time to time, and I didn't know what he was smelling, it felt weird, I was always unsteady in my heart, I was afraid that the coffin would suddenly burst, and then six demon insect corpses would jump out of it, and a few of us could be killed in an instant.
Jiao Ba sniffed for a while, then suddenly got up and said, "It's strange, why can't you feel that kind of yin qi?" ”
"Yin Qi? What do you mean? I asked him without understanding.
Jiao Ba glanced at me and explained, "It's the yin qi of a dead person, normally speaking, a person who has been dead for hundreds of years, the yin qi of the corpse will penetrate into the coffin, so the coffin will also have that kind of yin qi, but this coffin has no breath at all, and I can't feel any breath." ”
"Didn't Mai Lao just say that there was someone in the coffin? How can you not feel it? Jiao Ba, are you mistaken? Jenny asked, skeptically.
"I've robbed tombs for many years, how could this kind of thing be wrong, Mai Lao just said that there were people in the coffin, but he didn't say that there were corpses in the coffin." While Jiao Ba spoke, he deliberately glanced at Mai Lao.
"I'm confused by your words, what is someone, not a corpse? Can you explain that? My head is messed up. "Martin was blinded by us, in fact, let alone him, I'm a little blind, things are a bit complicated.
Mai Lao looked at us and said, "There are indeed people here, but whether it is a corpse or not, I don't know." ”
"It must be a corpse, can this coffin still contain a living person?" Martin retorted, his face extremely ugly and his eyes full of contempt.
"Then maybe, if I want to say, just open the coffin and take a look, if it's really the body of the wizard, we'll burn them." Chang Shan gestured and said calmly.
"I'll see it, let's open it and take a look." Jiao Ba agreed with Chang Shan's decision, according to what he said, the coffin did not have the yin qi of the corpse, but Mai Lao said that there were people inside, and if he didn't open it, he really couldn't feel at ease.
"Huh?? Open the coffin again? What if there are demon insect corpses inside? Don't take any chances, just burn it. Jenny was a little scared, after all, she had a leg injury, and if she was in danger, she couldn't protect herself at all.
"I agree with Jenny's words, safety first, it's not worth the risk." Martin insisted that the coffin be burned immediately.
"I also agree to open the coffin, our purpose is to burn the body, not the coffin, in case there is no body inside, what is the use of burning it." You have to confirm it, Jiao Ba won't be joking at this time, we blindly burned the coffin, which may cause a big mistake.
"Mai Laodu said that there are people inside, how can there be no corpses, I really don't know what you think again, obviously the coffin has been found, and you have to open the coffin, just burn it with a fire." Martin said with a cold face, his words full of sarcasm and disdain.
Mai Lao glanced at him and said, "Someone, it doesn't mean that it is a corpse, it may also be a living person, so you must open the coffin, Zhongyi Changshan, open this coffin." Mai Lao finally couldn't bear it anymore, and he had to give orders.
"Hey, Mai Lao, do you really want to open the coffin?" Martin is still there, endlessly.
Mai Lao had a cold face and said a little angrily, "Shut up, just stay with you." ”
A few of us gathered around, Jiao Ba was responsible for looking at Jenny and Martin, the three of us opened the coffin enough, this black coffin is very large, much larger than the coffin board used by ordinary people, and even larger than the coffin found in the shipwreck before, the specification is second only to Zheng He's large copper coffin, if you judge from the size and wood of the coffin alone, this is indeed in line with the identity of the wizard.
But it's really time to open the coffin, I still don't have any bottom in my heart, these six coffins, I really don't know what terrible things are hidden in it, there must be a reason for the sudden disappearance of the ghost Gu man.
"Zhongyi, what are you doing in a daze?" Mai Lao's voice rang in my ears.
I came back to my senses and said, "Oh, it's nothing, it's just a little tired, and it hurts a little bit all over my body." ”
"You're in a bad mental state, aren't you? Always in a daze, it's okay. Mai Lao grabbed my arm and asked with some concern.
I shook my head and said, "Don't worry, it's okay, I'm a person who resists tossing and opening the coffin." ”
The three of us took out the knife and first lifted the nails on the coffin, but when all the nails of the coffin were lifted, all of a sudden, the coffin lid trembled, this time it was not very obvious, and the sound was very small, as if someone was pushing it up inside, and the coffin trembled even less, which is why I was in front of the coffin, if I were a little farther away from the coffin, I would not have noticed it at all.
At this time, the three of us all stopped, and Chang Shan turned to me and asked, "Did you two see that?" The lid of the coffin seems to have moved a little just now. ”
"I saw it, it was indeed moved, maybe there were really people inside."
In fact, I am very conflicted in my heart, fear is accompanied by excitement, I am afraid that it is a corpse inside, if Jiao Bazhen miscalculates, or the yin qi of the corpse is wrapped, it does not penetrate into the coffin at all, and the excitement is that maybe there are really living people inside, and the most likely is Li Xin and them.
"You're scaring yourselves, aren't you? Where did the lid of the coffin move, why didn't I see it. Martin turned on his flashlight and said after me.
"Shut up, if you say one more word, I'll throw you up first, and let that ghost Gu man greet you well."
Mai Lao's words stunned all of us, he has always been polite to everyone, but I didn't expect Martin to really annoy him these two times, in the face of Mai Lao's cold eyes like a knife, Martin didn't dare to reply a word, his face was red and red when he was angry, Jenny was still glaring at him next to him, Martin was indeed talking too much nonsense.
The three of us waited for a few more minutes, but the lid of the coffin no longer trembled, everything that happened just now was really like an illusion, if it wasn't for Chang Shan and Mai Lao also seeing it, I really thought I was insane, the strength of this magic circle would completely turn a normal person into a nondescript person.
"Mai Lao, the coffin lid is not moving, shall we wait?" Chang Shan asked casually.
Mai Lao was still so calm, he said unhurriedly, "Leave it alone, let's push the coffin lid open, everyone be careful." ”
Mai Lao asked Jiao Ba and them to go back first, so as not to be in real danger after the coffin was opened, and when they were far away from the coffin, the three of us stood aside and lined up in a row, and after Mai Lao roared, the three of us began to exert force at the same time.
