Chapter 0212 - Burial (Three More Requests for Subscription)
"Wow, dog, you have a talent for treasure hunting!"
James held a dead branch and fiddled with a pile of debris on the ground.
They include a black glove, several mottled old metal coins, a ring, a badge, and other accessories.
These are all harvests dug out of the soil by Erha.
"This badge ......"
Diana squatted down and looked at the pattern on it: "I used a shield and a sword, and a redbud...... This is the style of the Chriss Empire, and its owner, perhaps a nobleman of the Chriss Empire...... Well, the kind from three hundred years ago! ”
She looked at the skull with a strange expression.
'This woman...... It seems that he yearns for the aristocracy......
Sulu said inwardly.
"Hey...... Don't look at that badge, what do you think it is? ”
John grabbed the ancient coins without feeling dirty, wiped the dirt and filth off them, revealing a shiny sheen: "Gold! It's a gold coin, and it's worth an antique...... We're going to send a sum. ”
"Send a sum?"
Elizabeth hesitated, "Could it be ...... Shouldn't we give it back to its owner and bury them properly? ”
"Don't be stupid......"
John looked at the small thief hole, his eyes shining: "Maybe ...... inside And a treasure! I suggest that we dig this place up, and at most bury its original owner, and the rest of the stuff is what we deserve! ”
'Blinded by greed...... The real good stuff in the tomb should have belonged to Harlock......
Sulu glanced at Erha.
The dog was found squatting there, showing a serious dog face, watching the owner argue with his friends.
'Hmm...... Isaac was a good boy and insisted on burying the burial goods with him, and his family should be in good condition...... Diana was reluctant to give up that badge...... James has an ambiguous attitude, but if he really gets rich, he will definitely ask for his share...... As for Elizabeth......
Sulu also watched from the sidelines.
Suddenly, Elizabeth spotted his gaze and asked, "Sean, what about your opinion?" ”
"My opinion...... It is to return the burial goods to their original owners...... You know, the owner of this tomb may be a grumpy, stingy, and jealous fellow......"
Sulu glanced at the gloomy forest, the corners of his mouth slightly curled.
"Neuropathy ......"
John scolded, "If you don't want it, give it to me!" ”
He leaned down in front of the robber hole, which was a little narrow for a person, as if trying to see if he could get in.
Suddenly, John screamed and fell backwards.
He looked pale, shivering, and had some wet marks on the base of his pants.
"What's going on?"
"You ......"
Such an anomaly immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Elizabeth and Diana couldn't help but turn their heads away when they saw John's ugliness.
"Ahh That...... In that hole...... There is a face! ”
John stammered what he had just discovered: "He'...... He just stared at me! Keep an eye on me! ”
"Nope!"
Holding a logging axe, James lay down slightly, staring into the cave: "Harlock didn't find ...... before"
"Perhaps...... That's the lingering ghost of the tomb owner! ”
Sulu interjected at this time.
"Undead? Interesting saying...... Do you believe in the existence of souls? Elizabeth asked rhetorically.
"Perhaps...... But if I were the owner of the tomb, I wouldn't want anyone to take my burial goods. ”
Sulu insisted on his opinion.
He found that all of them were targeted by a ghost, and that it was best to resolve the issue by peaceful means for now.
Though...... The source of all this is a dog.
It must have been Harlock who picked up the other party's grave last night and ate some special items or potions for the 'mutation' to happen! What the resentful spirit is really pursuing should also be that extraordinary wealth, but it's a pity...... I haven't gone back yet. ’
Sulu can only try to bury the body now and see if he can appease the other party.
Because he was in such a bad state that he didn't want to do it.
The scene froze a little.
James pursed his lips and wanted to say something.
"Ah!!h
At this moment, Diana pointed to a certain part of the forest and let out a scream: "There...... Someone! ”
"Who?"
James pounced on it, and found that there was no human figure at all, and there was no sign of anyone walking on the ground.
"I see it...... It was a very strange person, dressed very strangely, in an ancient style, wearing a hunter's suit, wearing that medal, with a pale face and bloody eyes......"
Diana squatted with her arms folded: "He...... He doesn't look like a living man! ”
"Isn't it? Are there really ghosts? ”
Friends hit ghosts one after another, and even Isaac became suspicious.
"To be on the safe side...... We'd better bury him and don't take away the funeral goods, right? ”
The startled crowd quickly agreed.
It took them a day to dig up the holes in the mound and clean up each other's corpses.
It was an ordinary dry skeleton, and its clothes were in tatters, and it was hard to recognize its true face.
It is believed that he was accidentally buried here due to an earthquake or other mountain disaster, but unfortunately there is no diary or other items to record information.
Next to the original mound, Isaac and others built a new tomb for him, with the epitaph engraved next to it: "A nameless traveler, may his soul rest in peace!" ”
In the end, they buried all the relics they had dug up around the grave and offered the wildflowers they had picked for a group prayer.
During this time, the wraith really never reappeared.
This brought John and Diana back to their composure, while James and the others seemed very excited, thinking that this camping was really exciting, and they had something to talk about after they returned.
It was fast into the night.
Isaac and the others were enjoying dinner around a campfire.
"I decided...... I'm going to write about it in my travelogue. ”
Elizabeth was the first to announce.
"That's pretty cool...... A trip to the mountains, the bones of a nameless man...... And the resentful spirit......" James also seemed very excited, and a little regretful: "I want to meet him too......"
"No, you won't think about it......"
John, who had been silent, finally spoke: "It was a nightmare! ”
"Yes!"
Diana on the side nodded in agreement.
They thought that after doing these things and completing the ritual of pacifying the evil spirits, the other party would not come to pester them.
Sulu took the broth and watched silently: 'It's a pity...... Some resentful spirits are not acting reasonably at all, let alone ......'
He glanced at Harlock next to him.
This dead dog didn't have the slightest sense of causing a big disaster, and was still selling cute meat there to eat.
Only those dark blue eyes seem to be more profound.
