All Chapters_Chapter 68: Opening the Coffin
I was suddenly startled, and directly opposite me, in front of the white coffin that I don't know how many times it had been, two monkeys and several ghosts were staring at me, their faces full of wonder and weirdness.
Is everything just an illusion, but this white coffin actually exists, I reached out and rubbed my eyes, so if I count it, this white coffin is the third I have seen.
The first one was dug up under the Snake Jun Temple and finally turned into a snake skin, the second was seen in the Tsing Yi Qiang Castle, and the third one existed in this ancient Shu ruins, I don't know if there is any connection between the three white coffins, but the woman named Ruochu was put into these three white coffins of the same appearance one after another.
Gu Shu, Gu Qiang and our Chen family, these three are connected to each other through white coffins, women, and bronze masks, what my grandfather said about the Chen family planning for more than 300 years is probably far from being as simple as he said, the national fortune of seizing Tsing Yi Gu Qiang may be just an external thing, the real purpose of the Chen family is not only this, Chen Shengzhi, this man surrounded by mysteries, what does he want to do?
"Hmph, this little cub is really related to the original ancient Shu Kingdom, maybe it is really the descendant of the ancient Shu royal family!" The Golden Monkey King stood in front of the white coffin, looking at me with a pair of red eyes, and the expression on his face was a little strange.
I was stunned, and hurriedly said: "I'm not a descendant of the ancient Shu royal family, I am a member of the Chen family, how can I have anything to do with the ancient Shu country." ”
In fact, I don't know what kind of relationship our Chen family has with this mysterious ancient Shu Kingdom, but at this moment, surrounded by these ghosts and monsters, I must immediately put aside the contact, otherwise looking at their appearance, they will definitely not do anything good to me, and they are even very likely to use me to do something. ,
"Hehe, little one, can you tell me what you just saw, from the moment you entered this hall, you began to behave strangely. If there is nothing wrong with you, do you think we will believe it? The ghost on the side smiled and said, the two black eyes made me a little scared, this old thing is a typical smiling tiger, and if you are not careful in the face of him, you may get into the trap.
I listened to the words of the ghost, and I was shocked, it turned out that everything I had done since I entered this hall had been seen by them, and all of us were in the same place, but the illusion just now was only visible to me, and several of them were unconscious, is this the function of the phoenix bird mark on my left shoulder?
I have a faint realization in my heart, I am afraid that the mysterious power contained in this phoenix bird mark will allow me to see the things and scenes related to it many years ago when I encounter some special things, as for whether this mark has other functions, I have not found out, but since Chen Shengzhi left the ancestral training back then and said that the Chen family should wait for a child with the phoenix bird mark on his body, there may be other secrets hidden in this mark.
"Well, some things can be done in moderation." The Yin Soldier Master suddenly stood in front of me, and he said lightly to a few ghosts in front of him.
The ghost smiled and said: "Mr. Zhang, you also saw what happened to this little thing just now, if you say that he has no connection with this ancient Shu ruins, will you believe it?" You have been dead for three hundred years, what are you still doing with this little guy of the human race, catch him to study and study, and maybe you can get some secrets about this ancient Shu country. ”
As soon as the ghost's words fell, the white-clothed corpse king, Minjiang Shuinu and others around them all looked at me, and the scorching light in their eyes made me extremely uncomfortable.
"It's not your turn to teach what Ben wants to do. Don't you want to get this ancient Shu treasure that has been said for thousands of years? Now that this thing is right in front of your eyes, how can you still have the leisure to pay attention to this doll. The Yin Soldier General said, pointing to the white coffin not far away, with a hint of mockery in his words.
Just because after I entered the main hall, my behavior was extremely strange and attracted their attention, these ghosts and monsters turned their attention to me, but ignored the white coffin on the side, and now it was mentioned by the Yin Soldier Lord, and several people immediately put their focus on the white coffin again. It's just that the moment the Golden Monkey King turned around, his eyes glanced at me, and his face was full of extreme resentment.
This dead monkey on a dog day is really a grudge!
I scolded secretly, this golden monkey king probably still remembers my grudge for taking his Jiaozhu, if it weren't for the Yin Soldier Lord to protect me, I'm afraid he would be the first to rush up and kill me.
The white-clothed corpse king was the first to pounce in front of the white coffin, he stretched out his hand and put it on the lid of the coffin full of white scale armor, and gently rubbed it, his face was excited and longing.
"Slow down!" Seeing that the white-clothed Corpse King was the first to run over, and seeing that he was about to open the coffin lid, he hurriedly shouted to stop the Corpse King's action.
"How do you want it! I'm going to decide on this! ”
The white-clothed corpse king turned his head and stood in front of the white coffin, his eyes coldly looked at the approaching ghosts, his face was full of vigilance, and he put on an attacking posture.
As soon as the white-clothed corpse king spoke, the faces of everyone present changed. From the very beginning, everyone looked for the legendary treasure of the ancient Shu Kingdom, and has always avoided involving the distribution of this problem, after all, there is only one treasure, but there are so many people who want it, these ghosts and monsters are all old treacherous and cunning people, and they deliberately avoid this problem before they see things, and they have their own small calculations in their hearts.
But now, the white-clothed corpse king is in front of the white coffin, and it is clear that it is like swallowing the things inside, and directly puts the problem that everyone deliberately avoided on the table, and this time, the contradiction has been completely intensified.
"Hehe, Corpse King, do you want to be alone? Don't forget, but this king brought you here, without my monkey clan, can you find this thing alone? The Golden Monkey King looked at the Corpse King and sneered, and the golden long stick in his hand stretched out, pointing directly at the Corpse King, looking like he was about to start a fight if he didn't say a word.
The mandrill of the Golden Monkey King also yelled at the Corpse King, and said angrily: "You dead zombie doesn't look at what kind of person you are, can you get this treasure of the ancient Shu Kingdom?" A zombie who has been dead for I don't know how many years is trying to borrow treasures to resurrect is simply wishful thinking! ”
The white-clothed corpse king listened to the mandrill's words, his face changed instantly, and a pair of eyes burst out with a dazzling red light in an instant, and his eyes were full of killing intent when he looked at the mandrill. The reason why he is so enthusiastic and excited about finding this ancient Shu treasure is because he wants to use this legendary treasure that can resurrect the dead to get rid of the zombie body and reincarnate as a human, although the treasure is just a legend that has been passed down for thousands of years, and the function of resurrecting the dead is more likely to be attached to future generations, but after all, it is also a hope that the corpse king in white can give everything.
The mandrill was glared at by the white-clothed corpse king, and immediately retreated in fright, he had suffered the great loss of the corpse king in the monkey palace, and he had already left some shadows in his heart.
"Hmph, Corpse King, don't go too far!" The water girl of the Minjiang River also walked forward, threatening the white-clothed corpse king, and the whole scene was tense for a while, and the battle was about to break out.
I was a little stunned, this was just a moment's work, and the ghosts and monsters that had just joined together turned their faces directly, and these people were really unreliable. However, when I thought that they turned their faces because of the treasure that might appear in this white coffin, I also felt a little speechless, because if I guessed correctly, the so-called ancient Shu kingdom treasure is the woman who is called Ruochu.
And that Ruochu ran into the ancient castle of Tsing Yi Qiang thousands of years ago, and was discovered by my ancestor Chen Shengzhi during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, took down the mountain, and buried under the Snake Temple. When I was ten years old, with the forced demolition of the Snake Temple by Li Daoscar and others, the white coffin was opened by Li Daoshi, and Ruochu, who was naked inside, also turned into ashes with a gust of wind, and the ancient Shu treasure that had been handed down for thousands of years no longer existed in this world.
I looked at the white coffin standing quietly among the ghosts, and thought to myself, I am afraid that there is nothing in this coffin now, and these ghosts are fighting for the end, I am afraid that it is just empty.
I glanced at the ghosts not far away who seemed to be starting to negotiate a compromise. I hurriedly ran to the side of the chief general of the Yin Soldiers, tiptoed to his ear and said, "Chief Zhang, this coffin is empty, and the things have already been taken away. Before they find out, let's go. ”
The Yin Soldier Master listened to my words, and his body did not move, but his head covered by the Yin Fog moved, and his two eyes looming in the ghost aura looked at me fiercely.
I was taken aback, and I didn't dare to look at each other in the face of the gaze of the Yin Soldier Commander. The reason why I want to tell this news to the chief general of the Yin Soldier is also a small calculation in my heart, and now this white coffin is clearly empty, just because these ghosts are fighting and have no time to take care of it, and when they negotiate or fight to determine the winner, they will naturally open the coffin.
When the time comes, when they discover the secret in this coffin, I will be finished, after the illusion just now, these ghosts have already determined that I have a connection with this ancient Shu ruins, and as soon as they open the empty coffin, they will definitely not let me go, and they will definitely arrest me for various interrogations. And at that time, I don't know if this Yin Soldier Lord will protect me anymore, after all, he seems to be a little interested in the treasures of this ancient Shu Kingdom.
That's why after some thought, I chose to tell the Yin Soldier General in advance, as long as he can take me away, even if he asks me about the news of Na Ruochu after leaving, I will tell him the truth, after all, he has saved me so many times, and I still have a trace of gratitude to him in my heart.
The Yin Soldier Lord looked at me for a long time, the black mist drifting around his body, and there was a light in his eyes, as if he was thinking about the meaning of what I had just said. It wasn't until he was about to be anxious when he saw me that he nodded and said lightly to me, "Let's go." ”
I was overjoyed, and hurried after him to the outside of the hall, and I was now eager to put on my wings and rush out of the hall at once.
But just as I and the Yin Soldier Lord were about to walk off the altar, a few ghosts and monsters over there seemed to have reached an agreement, only to see the white-clothed corpse king insert his two hands into the gap of the white coffin, and let out a loud shout, and directly lifted the entire coffin lid with both hands.
"It's over! Finished! ”
I wailed in my heart, now they will definitely find that the white coffin is empty, and they will definitely rush to me in anger, arrest me and ask where the contents of the coffin are, and then I don't know if this Yin Soldier Master can protect me, without the female ghost in red on the side, I don't think that this Yin Soldier Master will be able to beat these ghosts and monsters in front of me alone.
Just when I was depressed and worried, there was an incredible sound of surprise at the white coffin over there, and I heard the mandrill standing behind the golden monkey king say loudly: "How is it possible! How can it be a human skin! ”
I stood on the edge of the altar and listened to the words of the mandrill, and I was stunned for a moment. What human skin?
Isn't it Ruochu who is in the white coffin? And if the beginning had turned into ashes on the day the Snake Monarch Temple was demolished, the white coffin in front of him should have been empty.
I couldn't care about it at the moment, so I spread my legs and ran up to the altar, walked quickly to the white coffin, and looked inside.
I froze!
I'm an ancestor!
It's a human skin, and how does it look so familiar to me?
