Volume 2: Dream of the Nu River Chapter 010 Iron Rope Hanging Coffin

Gu Abba said in a panic: "Okay, it seems that you have bumped into something unclean?" ”

"Unclean stuff!?" I was surprised.

"No, Miss Huai just came out of there?" Yu Fatzi was suspicious, "Don't you fool me? ”

"Ahh Believe it or not! Xue Gang gasped and said: "We put something in the ear room, and suddenly we saw a black shadow flashing outside, so we immediately chased it out to see, but there was no shadow outside, and when we went back, the black shadow flashed out again, did you say that you encountered something unclean?" ”

"Don't rush to conclusions first, where Miss Huai goes, discuss with her first." I suggested.

"Good!" Xue Gang nodded, "I have to tell Miss right away." ”

Just as they got up to leave, I suddenly turned my head, a trace of air on my cheeks, my bangs fluttering gently, but I didn't see anything.

Yu Fatzi shouted in front: "Li Rui! Hurry up, don't fall behind. ”

I answered and quickly followed. I just caught up with Yu Fatzi in front, and in the blink of an eye, there seemed to be something floating gently behind me, and I was about to look back, when suddenly Xue Gang ran back from the front, and said in panic: "It's a big flood, run quickly!" ”

"Flooding?" I was surprised, "Slow down, what's wrong?" ”

"Oh, I don't care, you have to look at yourself." With that, Xue Gang left us and ran out.

"Cut, what kind of person, it's not a good bird at first glance." Yu Fatzi scoffed.

"How can there be so much water in the tomb?" I wondered, "Could it be that you have touched some mechanism?" ”

"That's what is going on, you don't look at these people who are greedy for money, they must be money addicts, and they have encountered some secret way." Yu Fatzi said mockingly.

I hurried forward and saw a huge stone statue of nine pythons in the center of a spacious burial chamber, and below the stone statue was a circular cistern, the walls of which were about a meter high, and which was already overflowing.

I looked up and saw that the mouths of the nine giant pythons were gushing out of their mouths, each of which was the size of three or five human heads, and the water column suddenly erupted with a huge sound.

"This Xue Gang is a little bold, right? What's there to be afraid of? Yu Fatzi said disapprerovingly, "It's a fountain for a long time?" ”

"What fountain you kid don't understand, don't talk nonsense, this python is also a sign of power in ancient times, just like our Central Plains Dynasty, there is a python embroidery on the minister's court clothes, called a python robe. If you look at the shape of this nine python fighting tigers, it means that the owner of this tomb is not only powerful and powerful, but also very likely to be a military general on the battlefield. ”

"Really?" Yu Fatzi said excitedly, "That relationship is good, it seems that I can make a lot of money this time." ”

I always felt that something was wrong, and when I looked closely, I realized that each python had a red gem the size of a bowl on its head, and the gem on the head of one of the pythons was gone.

"Not good!" "Damn, they must have taken a fancy to the ruby on the python's head, which caused the trap to be triggered." ”

"Ruby?" Before Yu Fatzi could react, I pushed him and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the bottom of this pool should be empty, and the two brothers of the Gu family must have been washed down by the current." ”

"Ahh Yu Fatzi didn't care and said, "They just died by themselves, who can blame them?" ”

I squinted at him and sneered, "You want to divide the spoils between two fewer people at that time, right?" ”

"Hey, Li Rui, can you chat?" Yu Fatzi hurriedly said, "Speaking of how snobbish I am, let me tell you, I have a good heart, and when I was in Panjiayuan, I often helped my grandmother cross the road." ”

"Okay, okay, I don't have time to listen to your nonsense." As I spoke, I was about to go into the water to save people, and was about to take off my coat, when suddenly a figure rushed out from behind me, kicked briskly, jumped onto the pool wall, and then lightly vertically landed firmly on the stone tiger.

"Miss Huai?!" Yu Fatzi was surprised.

"It's going to be flooded in a few moments." Huai Rujin reminded, "If you don't want to become a soup chicken, go out quickly." ”

"Miss Huai, what do you think of me Yu Fatzi, am I the kind of person who will abandon you?" As soon as Yu Fatzi saw Huai Rujin's eyes, his eyes straightened, and as he spoke, he jumped up like a stroke of genius, and even jumped up steadily.

"Today, the fat master is going to clean up your bed bugs and call you to scream!" Yu Fatzi took out a sapper shovel from his backpack and slammed it towards the python's head.

Huai Rujin glanced at him, and said coldly: "Don't knock, even if you knock the rock outside, there is a ceramic pipe burned from kaolin inside, you can't break it if you knock it like this." ”

Yu Fatzi thought that he would be ridiculed for pretending to be forced to do so, and he was annoyed for a while, then thought about it and said, "There is a way!" Shall we just plug it up? ”

"Fatty, are you a pig's brain?" I sneered, "You hurry down, don't do me any help." ”

I said to Huai Rujin: "This water is estimated to be able to flood the entire tomb soon, the two brothers of the Gu family have not seen them since they came in, it is estimated that they are rushed into the pool, or it is important to save people first." ”

Huai Rujin nodded and said, "You analyzed it right just now, I have already seen other tombs, this should not be where the real dragon is, and the real cave may be under this pool." ”

"In that case, what are you waiting for?" Yu Fatzi said urgently.

I thought to myself, "This little lady does have a hand, and everything is ahead of me." I immediately covered my mouth and nose and jumped into the water. At first, Yu Fatzi saw that the water surface was constantly bubbling, and then it stabilized and there was no movement. For fear that something unknown would attack me underwater, it was no joke, so I shouted several times, but no one answered.

At this moment, blood oozed from the surface of the water, and a corpse resurfaced. Yu Fatzi took a closer look and exclaimed, "Isn't this Gu Ali!" ”

I popped my head out of the water and shouted, "Don't touch him!" ”

Huai Rujin hurriedly stretched out his hand and said, "Hold on to me, come up!" ”

But I shook my head and said, "There are countless evil maggots lurking on the wall of this pool, and this person has been drilled into his internal organs by the maggots below, and he is no longer saved, so you better not touch him, beware of those evil maggots." ”

Huai Rujin hesitated: "Since this water is not clean, you should come up." ”

"Afraid of what?" I said, "You see that this water is bound to flood the tomb, and if you don't jump now, you will have to jump when the time comes." ”

Yu Fatzi hurriedly said: "I'm not afraid of heaven and earth, but are you kid deliberately trying to harm Lao Tzu, obviously there are poisonous insects below, why do we have to send them to death?" ”

He was cowering, but Huai Rujin suddenly jumped into the water. Yu Fatzi looked at the water in disbelief, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and scolded: "Your mother, who are they, no matter what, Lao Tzu will fight with you today!" As he spoke, he closed his eyes and jumped down.

I took out a handful of paper packets that I had prepared under the water and opened them in the water, and the paper packets contained some red powder that quickly dissolved in the water. This powder was handed down by my grandfather, and he used to keep it when he went to fight, and it was said to be able to restrain insects.

I swam around the water, dissolved the powder evenly, and in a short time I saw that all the maggots on the walls of the pool were writhing desperately, and after a while, they all hardened, and fell down, never to move again.

There was a stone door in the depths of the wall, but it had been opened, and we passed through it, and after passing through a transverse passage that was not short or long, we came to a pool similar to the one before, and then floated up.

As soon as he landed ashore, Yu Fatzi asked, "Li Rui, what kind of treasure did you use just now, why are all those maggots burping?" ”

"Why do you ask so much?" I waved my hand in disregard, "Don't bother me." ”

Huai Rujin looked around at the tomb in front of him and said: "The shape of this tomb is basically the same as the one outside, except that there is no stone statue of the Nine Pythons Fighting the Tiger here, it is almost copied as it is." ”

"Look!"

Huai Rujin looked at me alertly, I tilted my head and looked at the top of the tomb, and she immediately followed my line of sight, only to see four long chains hanging from the top, and a sarcophagus hanging from the chains. Huai Rujin was surprised: "Iron cable hanging coffin." ”

"Hanging coffin? What do you mean? Yu Fatzi was puzzled, "Li Rui, why do I think it's a bit similar to the coffin in the Yinshan Han Tomb." But it's just chained, it's just hanging. ”

"It's a very rare way to bury a tomb, and I've only seen it once before in a late Qing zombie tomb." Huai Rujin said.

"Zombie graves? You mean there's zombies in there? ”

"Not necessarily, if the people lying in here have become stiff before entering, this method is mostly to isolate the subdued zombies from moisture, prevent intrusion, and regenerate. If the one inside did not become stiff, the purpose of this was probably because there was a problem with the feng shui in this place, and the humidity was too heavy, so the coffin was hoisted before it could be changed in the future. I said.

Huai Rujin looked at me in surprise and admired: "Sure enough, he is a person who has seen the world, and what he said is not bad." ”

"Miss Huai has won the award, how can I have you who are well-informed, in fact, I have never seen this kind of burial method, it is just a mistake."

"Hey, you two don't talk here, let's talk about what to do next?" Yu Fatzi said urgently.

"What are you anxious about?" I looked at the walls around the tomb and said, "This chain is going to be raised, it must be designed with a mechanism, let's look for it, we should find it soon." ”

Fat Yu touched up and down the wall for a long time, but he didn't even see a special brick, and said in frustration: "Oh, I'm so angry, can this coffin still fly up by itself?" ”

I also found nothing, and wondered: "No, there is no organ to control it, and if you want to get the coffin up, how did the people at that time do it?" I looked at Huai Rujin expectantly, and what I was waiting for was a helpless shake of my head.

"What the hell." I let out a sigh and thought, "If the mechanism isn't here, could it be underwater?" Hiding the real dragon here, it shouldn't be so easy to expose the mechanism, right? ”

Thinking of this, I was about to look into the pool, and as soon as I looked in, my eyes caught a glimpse of the water, and the hanging coffin was above the pool, and I could see the reflection just in time.

I took a step back, shocked. I saw a human head poking out of the reflection of the coffin, looking down. And at this glimpse, I was even more surprised in my heart, and I thought: "Lin Xiaoyu? ”

I immediately looked up, but there was no figure on the hanging coffin, "Could it be that I'm dazzled, but why is it so much like Lin Xiaoyu?" ”

Huai Rujin seemed to see something and asked, "What's wrong, what did you see?" ”

I calmed down and exhaled, "That...... I'm just going to see if the mechanism is going to be in this pool, but the ground got wet and slipped when I just came up. ”

Huai Rujin glanced at me and didn't ask much, but she looked up unexpectedly, and I was quite surprised by her move, thinking: "This Huai Rujin's observation is so keen, how much can she see." ”
