Chapter Eighty-Six: The Mystery of the Coffin
Yan Wuping was surprised again and again when he heard it, fortunately he knew the boss of the Wuyang Society, otherwise he was afraid that he would really die in this ghost place this time.
He sighed and said, "What kind of emperor's concubine is this, why are you building a tomb and doing so many pretenses? Could it be that there are some treasures here?"
"Yes, I thought the same thing. Chu Manman continued: "The Wuyang Society has been rooted here for hundreds of years, and it has not even been found. ”
"What!" Yan Wuping said in a lost voice.
He thought that Wuyang would be here for hundreds of years, and he had already found everything here, but he didn't expect that they hadn't even found the tomb of the owner of this underground palace.
Chu Manman glanced at him: "Do you think it's easy to find? I've been walking around with dozens of people almost every day for the past few months, and I only found some funeral goods." Not to mention the coffin, even the tomb has not been found. ”
She pondered for a moment, then said, "They all say that this is the inner and outer six floors, but in fact, I don't think it's quite right. ”
Yan Wuping asked, "What's wrong?"
Chu Manman said: "I think the inner three layers and the outer three layers that this association often talks about now are only a small part of this underground palace. Because I've been to a lot of places in the dungeon, it seems that when this building was first designed, it was based on nine. ”
"What's based on nine?" Yan Wuping frowned.
Chu Manman explained: "It's this underground palace, all the things, nine of them, the lamp stands on the ceiling, nine. The steps in front of the hall are also nine steps. Even the patterns engraved on the passages are arranged in nine rows. ”
"Even if we're standing in this dungeon now, there must be nine rooms, I guess, don't you believe you?" she added.
Yan Wuping smiled: "Manman, you want to fool me, I really don't believe it, how can it be such a coincidence?" He turned around and walked out of the corridor, and really lit up one by one.
"One, two, three...... Seven, eight, nine!" Yan Wuping was a little surprised after ordering, and ran back and said, "It's really nine!"
Chu Manman was a little proud, and said, "So, I suspect that there are still three floors, and we haven't found it." I've been looking for a long time, but unfortunately I haven't found any. ”
Yan Wuping said: "I understand, what do you mean is that my two friends are absolutely impossible to escape outside, they must still be in the underground palace?"
Chu Manman nodded: "Moreover, I don't think any of my subordinates will have the courage to secretly let them out, so they must disappear in this tomb." ”
She added: "As long as we look carefully, we will always find clues, maybe there are other agencies here." ”
Yan Wuping felt that it made sense, so he looked carefully again.
The two searched in the cell for half an hour, but still found nothing, so they had no choice but to sit on the floor to rest, Yan Wuping leaned against the wall, looking at the two coffins in a daze.
"You're disgusting, aren't you, do you need a coffin for a prisoner?" he said strangely.
Chu Manman said: "This was originally the burial chamber of some martyrs, and the coffins have long been available, and the place where there are dead people is naturally unlucky, so it has never been inhabited here, but it is quite suitable for detaining prisoners." ”
She said angrily: "Brother Yan, don't worry about these things, hurry up and find your two companions, otherwise you won't be able to take off this mask for seven days!"
Yan Wuping said helplessly: "What can I do, you are the master here and you can't find it, where can I find it?"
Chu Manman said angrily: "Bah, you are the master here, and the master of this underground palace is a dead man! Why are you still so annoying when you speak?"
She scolded angrily for a long time, but she didn't hear Yan Wuping talk, so she looked over to him, only to see Yan Wuping staring at the floor blankly, and couldn't help but say gently: "What's the matter? Brother Yan, I scolded you twice, angry?"
Yan Wuping shook his head and said, "You go and ask someone to carry a few buckets of water." ”
"How many buckets of water do you carry?" Chu Manman frowned, not knowing what Yan Wuping wanted to do, and said, "What do you want water for, take a bath?"
Yan Wuping said: "What kind of bath?" I suspect that there is something strange about this cell, so I will pour water on it and take a look." ”
Chu Manman Bingxue was smart, and immediately knew what Yan Wuping meant, he wanted to pour water on the stone floor of the cell, and the water flowed low, if the floor of this cell was indeed impermeable, then the water would not flow away, if the water could flow away, it meant that there might be another cave under the floor, maybe there was some secret passage in this cell leading to other places.
She immediately stood up, walked to the door of the tomb, and shouted, "Someone!" Just now, the female disciples didn't dare to go far, they waited in the corridor, and as soon as they heard the call of the guild master, they immediately rushed over: "Huihui, what's the matter?"
"You guys go fetch some buckets of water. ”
"Yes!"
Soon, several buckets of water were brought in, and Chu Manman told them to pour all the water on the floor of the cell.
Sure enough, the water seemed to have found its direction, and the more it flowed, Yan Wuping carefully observed the direction in which the water flowed, and found that the water actually flowed to the bottom of the coffin.
He gave Chu Manman another look, and Chu Manman understood, and sent those disciples outside.
After those few disciples walked away, Yan Wuping said: "This coffin has a mystery!"
Chu Manman also saw the water flowing to the bottom of the coffin, and said, "But these two coffins are carved from a thousand-year-old boulder, what other mysteries can there be?"
Yan Wuping walked to the coffin, looked up and down carefully, and saw that the two big black stone coffins and the floor seemed to be fused together, and they looked like they weighed a thousand pounds, so they had to push the coffin to find other passages?
He was lucky enough to push one of the coffins, but the coffin didn't move at all, Chu Manman looked at it on the side and felt funny: "I said Brother Yan, even if there is a passage below, people will not be stupid enough to make such a heavy coffin, it takes so much effort to open, I think there must be some mechanism, you can open the door with a slight twist, you see that your strength is completely useless." ”
Yan Wuping said: "Well, you are right, but where is the switch?
Chu Manman walked around the coffin, but didn't find anything unusual, and couldn't help but wonder a little: "Could it be that the switch is inside the coffin? Brother Yan, lie in and see if you find anything?"
“...... Why don't you lie down?" Yan Wuping smiled: "I'm in good health, what kind of coffin to lie in?"
He laughed as he stepped into the coffin.
The coffin is not very big, it can just accommodate a person to lie down, Yan Wuping sat and looked at the inside of the coffin, and found nothing, so he slowly lay down.
After lying down, Yan Wuping wanted to tease Chu Manman, so he shouted: "Ah!"
Chu Manman was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Yan, what's wrong with you?"
"This ...... This...... Coffin...... Yes...... Question!" Yan Wuping groaned, as if he was struggling.
It's just that his expression was smug and smiling, fortunately, wearing a mask, Chu Manman didn't notice it at all, and asked very nervously: "Brother Yan, what's the problem? Are you okay? Don't scare me!"
