Remember in one second [the whole โ™‚ bookรท small? Say โ˜† Net .], update fast, no pop-ups, read for free!

The image in front of me is unbelievable enough, because the bones in this box are human skulls that we have never seen before.

Is it a human mutation? Or is it just a simple and crude combination of a human skull and horns?

I leaned over to look at the skull, and I saw that the skull had begun to become a little distorted from the long soaking, and I couldn't tell from the seam between the horns and the skull whether the horns had been made into the skull or were born to grow, so I could never determine what was going on.

Hong Ming, who was standing at the door of the cabin, saw our shocked expressions and asked curiously what we saw, and I didn't know how to answer him for a while, so I could only say that we had found something magical.

Hong Ming wanted to come in, but he didn't dare to come in, and stood alone at the door and wandered.

Mr. Wei looked at the weird skull and said, "In myths and legends, it was once said that there was a clan in ancient times that was a human head and horn, could it be that the skull in this box belonged to the ancient gods?" โ€

Zheng Shihuan pondered for a moment, and said after a while: "I don't know why this Caoyun ship carries such a skull, could it be that this is the treasure that the local officials wanted to pay tribute to the great emperor at that time?" โ€

"Yes, I think this head should have been found by chance in the tomb, because it was really rare, so it was handed over to the son of tomorrow through the boat branch of Caoyun." I inferred in a low voice.

Mr. Wei looked up and pointed to the wooden boxes under this box, and said, "Let's take a look at what is stored in the remaining boxes first, and then judge whether it's too late." โ€

Zheng Shihuan nodded, and hurriedly and carefully opened the rest of the boxes.

Maybe because the impact of the first box on Zheng Shihuan was too great, Zheng Shihuan was careful when opening the remaining boxes.

And the next few boxes left us confused, because the contents of the boxes were so confusing.

There were almost a dozen chests, each containing a skull, and unlike the first one, the skulls in the remaining boxes were the skulls of ordinary humans, not the skulls with horns on their heads......

In other words, the skulls in the remaining dozen or so boxes should all be normal human skulls.

But why did the ship bring back so many boxes of skulls?

What kind of human skulls are these? What kind of person is the skull with horns on his head?

The situation in front of us completely lost our way, and even the well-informed Mr. Wei was caught off guard.

"Let's see if there are any other important things in the cabin first, the remains of the crew are not far ahead, let's go and see......" Mr. Wei said in a low voice.

According to Hong Ming's description, the ship should have been in a big storm when it sank, so most of the crew had already been thrown out of the cabin. Now there are not many remains of the crew in the cabin, there are only two or three alone.

As we went inside, the planks under our feet kept rotting and collapsing, and I was so scared that I even suspected that the ship would be completely broken into several pieces before we had gone through the entire cabin.

Within a few steps, my eyes were fixed on the body of a corpse in the depths of the cabin, although his body was covered with green seaweed, which even covered his face, hands and feet, but I could vaguely tell that his clothes were quite luxurious, this guy should be the leader of the whole ship, if not the captain, he would definitely be a high-ranking official.

Mr. Wei and Zheng Shihuan had the same idea, and the three of us walked towards the corpse.

At this moment, Zheng Shihuan suddenly let out a low cry and said nervously: "My feet! I can't seem to move my feet! โ€

As soon as these words came out, the three of us quickly stopped moving.

Mr. Wei frowned and said in a low voice, "There are dirty things." โ€

Just now, with the light of Mr. Wei's talisman, we saw that there were still a few dirty things in the cabin that had not yet left, and now that Zheng Shihuan was caught on the ankle, it must be the hands and feet of these dirty things.

Looking down, I saw a bruise gradually appearing on Zheng Shihuan's white ankle, which showed that the ghost's movements were quite fierce and his strength was also great.

Thinking of this, I violently waved the peachwood sword in my hand and slashed towards Zheng Shihuan's ankle, and when the sword went down, I vaguely heard a scream beside me!

Zheng Shihuan breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly withdrew his feet, and said angrily: "Damn, these beasts know how to bully Lao Tzu!" โ€

Mr. Wei said in a low voice: "We opened the box just now, and these dirty things didn't react at all, and now we are walking towards that corpse, but we are blocked, which means that there must be something very important on that corpse......"

I also nodded and said, "That's right, don't forget, Chang Baxian seems to be very interested in something on this ship. According to my inference, what can interest Chang Baxian must be related to the Shen family's treasure, and the weird skull we found in the box just now is definitely not Chang Baxian's target. So I suspect that there must be something related to the Shen family's treasure on this corpse......"

"Then you have to be more careful." Mr. Wei said as he gently lit the talisman in his hand, which burned slowly and began to emit a dazzling light.

"You two go first, and I'll come to the back of the palace." Mr. Wei said in a low voice, and as he spoke, he stood behind me and Zheng Shihuan. Zheng Shihuan and I didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly walked towards the depths of the cabin.

I walked in front of me with a peachwood sword, Zheng Shihuan followed behind me, there must be something very important on this corpse in the depths of the cabin.

After a great deal of hard work, we finally got to the corpse, because the green seaweed on the corpse was so dense that I couldn't even see the corpse's face.

"Zheng Shao, I'll go rummage through his pockets, you keep an eye on it, there are still a few dirty things around us......" I whispered.

Zheng Shihuan nodded hurriedly, took the peachwood sword from my hand, and carefully guarded the side.

Brushing aside the seaweed from the corpse, I saw his clothes that had not yet completely decayed, and I felt that the corpse was actually quite plump, perhaps due to some swelling after the corpse was soaked in water.

I searched through my pocket, and after a while, I noticed that in his jacket pocket, there was a very hard locket.

I didn't want to, so I took out the small box directly, and before I had time to take a look at it in my hand, I suddenly heard Zheng Shihuan next to me whisper: "Xiao Yang, you see that he seems to have a baby on his waist!" โ€

I looked down and saw that there seemed to be a treasure on the corpse's waist, and although it was through the dense seaweed, I could still see a faint glow under the seaweed......

"It's weird, it's weird...... What the hell is this thing? Can it still shine? Zheng Shihuan was still very bold, and before I could speak, he reached out and touched the corpse's waist.

Zheng Shihuan pushed aside the seaweed, and the situation in front of me made me and Zheng Shihuan stunned at the same time!

I saw that under the seaweed, there was a jade pendant with excellent texture tied around the waist of this corpse! This jade pendant is carved with a strange bird, which is finely crafted and lifelike!

Moreover, the texture of this piece of jade is quite perfect, even Hong Ming's 50 million bought phoenix fetus may not have such a superior quality as this jade pendant!

The treasure of the Shen family!

I instantly made a judgment in my heart, this jade pendant is a treasure of the Shen family!

From Sioux City to Nanjing, two jade bracelets, a pendant, and a jasper hairpin appeared in the Shen family's treasure, and now the jade pendant on this corpse must be one of them!

Mr. Lechuan is right, the treasure of the Shen family is indeed a set of dowries, and now this jade pendant is obviously one of the dowries!

I was just about to tell this matter, when Zheng Shihuan next to me suddenly whispered, "Huh? Xiao Yang, look at this corpse, it seems that his flesh is not rotten at all......"

I was stunned when I heard this, and a cold sweat broke out!

Right now, in the position next to the jade pendant, under the seaweed, I did see the waist part of this "corpse", and what was shocking was that although the flesh on the waist of this "corpse" was a little dirty, it was intact and bloody, and it was not what a corpse should look like at all......

My heart stopped beating even at this moment, and the situation in front of me was enough to show that the "corpse" we saw was most likely not a "corpse......

"Xiao Yang, Xiao Zheng!"

At this time, Mr. Wei's voice came from not far away: "I...... It seems to be ...... just now See the corpse next to you...... I moved a little ......"

Mr. Wei said nervously.
