Chapter 174: The Ancestor Is Seen in the Tomb (Part II)

A white skeleton!

This sudden frightened scene really shocked Xu Tianchuan's heart, because Xu Tianchuan didn't do any psychological precautions in this regard at all.

"Uncle, what's wrong?"

Xing Chang, who was waiting in place in the distance, took a step back in surprise when he saw Xu Tianchuan's expression, as if he had seen something, and immediately asked this side, and his expression became nervous with Ning Su.

"Shopkeeper Xu, do you want to help?"

Jiao San also shouted in unison.

I saw Xu Tianchuan shaking his head, the expression on his face slowly returned to naturalness, and his eyes kept staring ahead.

The skeleton behind the coffin was actually not facing Xu Tianchuan's side, but facing the coffin, holding a black fold in his hand, and the flat end of the black fold was inserted into the gap in the coffin lid in front of him, that is, with this support, the skeleton was able to stand.

"Grandpa?"

Xu Tianchuan looked at the skeleton in front of him who was prying the coffin, and the first thing that came to his mind was the grandfather who died in this tomb.

Moreover, this skeleton has long braids, and although the clothes on the body have been seriously decayed, it can also be seen that it is a Qing Dynasty costume, and the time point of more than 100 years of history can almost be compared.

Based on the above, there is no truth in what the criminal sentence says, this is basically 'successful family search'.

At this time, Xu Tianchuan even wanted to laugh.

You can still see ancestors in ancient tombs.

At this time, because Xing Chang was really curious, he also followed Xu Tianchuan's previous footsteps and came to Xu Tianchuan's side.

When Xing Chang saw the skeleton standing next to the coffin for the first time, his expression was first surprised, and then full of reverence, without saying a word, he knelt on the ground on his knees, and kowtowed three times in a row: "Ancestors go up again, please be worshiped by the juniors, you have been here for a hundred years, and the juniors have come to take you to rest in the ground!" ”

The performance of Xing Chang is actually more cordial than that of Xu Tianchuan, a descendant of the Eight Classics.

But how to say it, although Xu Tianchuan has the blood of the Xu family in his body, his soul is already another person.

So, if you want to say that kind of special intimacy, there is really no such thing, this is different from the punishment, even if it is pretended, it seems a little contrived, so this meeting and kneeling ceremony is still exempt.

Taking his bones out and putting them in the ground is considered to be a tribute to this filial piety.

"Oh yes, little Changzi, didn't you say that my ancestor died in this tomb to save your grandfather? Then why is it this posture of prying the coffin when he dies? ”

Xu Tianchuan suddenly thought of a more serious question, but in fact, in order to save people to die in the tomb is just a dictation, and the tomb robbery codex does not write this, but only writes that he is in danger......

Xing Chang stood up after kowtowing three times, then nodded, raised his eyebrows, as if he also thought of this, and said: "Regarding this matter, it has been passed down from generation to generation by our ancestors, in fact, I also said the same, but now I look at it, it is indeed a little strange." ”

"Hmm!"

Xu Tianchuan nodded, it must have been crooked.

But that doesn't affect the facts.

When the ancestor died, he maintained a posture of prying the coffin, and the black fold had only just been inserted into the gap of the coffin lid, and it was obviously dangerous before he had time to pry it up.

As mentioned earlier, this coffin was first buried with the corpse, and then painted after the coffin was sealed.

Why do you have to wait until the coffin has been sealed before painting? Isn't it usually a complete coffin that is made before the body is buried?

In fact, the reason in this is very simple, because this black paint is not an ordinary lacquer, this lacquer has a certain viscosity, and it can be wax sealed like wax water.

That is to say, the black paint is painted, and the effect of wax sealing is also attached, so as to ensure that the inside of the coffin is absolutely sealed.

The black fold was inserted into the gap of the coffin before it could be pried up, so there was not the slightest sign of opening the edge.

The ancestor's death told Xu Tianchuan a very critical danger signal, this coffin could not be moved easily, it was very dangerous, so that the ancestor did not react, and did not have the slightest chance to react, so he died here on the spot.

This is also completely in line with what the tomb robbery codex says, I don't know what danger I encountered!

At the same time, it is also more in line with the saying that the ancestors of his own family 'saved' the ancestors of his family.

Xu Tianchuan made a very likely conjecture in his heart:

"When the two ancestors went down to this tomb, it was their ancestors who took the black fold to pry the coffin, and then encountered a sudden unknown danger and hiccups instantly, and they didn't even have a chance to react and respond, and the death should be very miserable, very terrifying, so that they scared the ancestors of the penal constant, and then one person escaped from the tomb in embarrassment, and after going out, he pressed the tomb with a rock.

The ancestor of Xingchang wrote down the tomb robbery codex when he came home, and told his descendants in an oral way that it was his grandfather who saved his life, and this so-called 'help' actually helped him block a shot. ”

Although these are Xu Tianchuan's guesses, they can be 100% in line with the facts in front of him.

Therefore, the greatest danger lies in this ship-shaped coffin in front of you!

Xu Tianchuan took off his coat and spread it on the ground, and then walked carefully and vigilantly in front of the ancestors' bones step by step.

"Uncle, be careful!"

Xing Chang saw what Xu Tianchuan meant, and hurriedly reminded him with a solemn expression.

Obviously, Xing Chang also saw the strangeness and danger of this coffin, and the closer it was, the more dangerous it became.

To be honest, Xu Tianchuan himself was a little nervous.

But you can't just do nothing and just stand here stupidly, right?

Let's put away the remains of our ancestors first.

"It's okay!"

Xu Tianchuan took a deep breath and tried to put his hand on the remains of the ancestor, his movements were extremely cautious, after all, when the ancestor was in danger, he had no chance to react at all.

When the hand touches the remains of the ancestors, nothing out of the ordinary happens.

Xu Tianchuan subconsciously took a deep breath and made the next move, carefully taking off the skull first.

Because the whole skeleton is mainly supported by black folds, as long as the range of movement is not large, it can be disassembled and removed little by little.

It's like the game of 'picking sticks' when I was a child, and you have to be able to take one piece without affecting the other parts, which will cause you to touch the black fold.

But Xu Tianchuan feels that he is more like a 'bomb disposal'!

Everyone also stared at each other with solemn and nervous expressions, and subconsciously held their breath, watching Xu Tianchuan dismantle the bones one by one, for fear that taking a breath would affect him.

The atmosphere in the burial chamber was so dead that a pin drop could be heard.

In addition, the bones of the ancestors also carried a cowhide backpack, and the backpack was not as badly rotten, it was bulging inside, and it seemed to contain a lot of things.

Xu Tianchuan carefully took off the cowhide backpack, and it took more than ten minutes to finally disassemble all the bones of the ancestors safely and soundly, wrap them tightly in a coat, tie them on his back, and prepare to take them out for burial.

In the end, only a black fold was left in the gap of the coffin, as if waiting for the 'destined person' to pry it open......

But without figuring out where the danger is coming from, who would dare to go up and touch it easily?

Xu Tianchuan and Xing Chang subconsciously glanced at each other.

This tacit understanding is very spiritual.

One is the leader of the Jieling Mountains, who has the inheritance of the Qilin bloodline, which makes him a good secret weapon and has a tailwind ear.

One is Xu Tianchuan, who has the inheritance of the Qinglong bloodline and the blessing of the tomb robbery system, or the man who has singled out the two thousand years of zongzi!

But at this time, in the face of such a coffin, I hesitated in my heart!

Xu Tianchuan said that hesitation is not a shameful thing.

The two ancestors were not ordinary tomb robbers before, and it can be seen from the method of robbing the cave alone, at least Xu Tianchuan has never seen such a beautiful and perfect robbery hole so far.

But in the end, he died, and he didn't even have any chance to react and cope.

The most important thing is that the other person who is traveling with you is watching from the side, not knowing what is happening or where the danger is coming from.

This is completely an instant spike.

Therefore, without finding out the reason and not knowing where the danger is hidden, the ancestors have already reminded themselves that they must not follow the old path of the ancestors.

Xu Tianchuan was not sure that he could react faster than the ancestors and deal with this hidden danger of seckill.

Xu Tianchuan didn't, and Xingchang didn't have this certainty either, not at all.

That's why there are such spiritual glances at each other, which makes the atmosphere extremely solemn and quiet.

Even Jiao San next to him saw the situation in front of him.

And the first thing that comes to mind in Jiao San's mind is 'cannon fodder'!

Let a little brother go up and try it first, and see what danger will happen.

If one junior can't understand it, then try a few more junior ones......

In the past, Jiao San would definitely do this, and he did it in his previous career of more than 20 years of tomb robbing.

But now this situation may be a little out of place.

Let's not mention that these subordinates are the backbone of their own elites, and the form in front of them is a fool who can see what the situation is, even if he finds someone to be cannon fodder, it must not be so obvious, in the case of death both horizontally and vertically, his younger brother may rebel......

Otherwise, how could Jiao San have used such despicable methods for twenty years and still have a large number of loyal followers? The main reason is that Jiao San is good at using this, so you will be cannon fodder in a daze......

"That's right!"

Jiao San seemed to have suddenly thought of some good plan, and hurriedly looked at Xu Tianchuan and said, "Shopkeeper Xu, since this coffin is so mysterious and dangerous, why don't we have a blast?" Blew it up directly? ”

Explode?

Xu Tianchuan shook his head directly and decisively.

Jiao San could think of this, and Xu Tianchuan naturally thought of it a long time ago.

"Bombing is not guaranteed to be safe, we haven't found the slightest clue about the danger for the time being, that is, the crisis is unknown, pry the coffin to kill one, maybe if you blow it up with gunpowder, you will die all!"

Xu Tianchuan took a deep breath, and while speaking, he looked at the surroundings of the coffin, including the situation of the entire underground palace tomb, and then combined all the tomb robbery knowledge in his mind, including "Shaking the Dragon" and "Sixteen Characters Yin Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique" to try to find possible hidden crises.

But completely nothing.

"Uncle is right! Don't be reckless! ”

Xing Chang also nodded approvingly, agreeing with Xu Tianchuan's words very much, and also carefully studied the entire tomb and the surroundings of the coffin, and did not find any doubts.

Since then, it has become a dead end?

Really helpless?

"Shopkeeper Xu, according to me...... Grandpa's remains have been obtained, and we don't lack these three melons and two dates......"

Jiao San only said half of what he said, and the rest didn't dare to say it directly.

But the implication is already obvious, he is already rich, even if the coffin in front of him is full of gold, it is only a quantity for himself.

With the current situation, if you really can't do it, there is really no need to take risks, anyway, the remains of the ancestors have been found, and the purpose has been accomplished, and it is the wisest choice to turn around and leave now!
