86. Corpse

PreviousBack to directoryNext
It was also dark inside the door, but as the three people entered the door, the biting cold wind stopped instantly, and there was no movement at all.

Quiet, deathly quiet, no other sounds could be heard except the breathing of three people.

The three people shivered at the same time, because the temperature inside the door was obviously much lower than outside.

"What a heavy Yin Qi!" Old Qiu Tou couldn't help shouting. Now he knew that he had arrived at the right place without surveying. He shook his body, put the compass back into his bag, took out a charm and stuck it on himself

chest, and then clenched the Luban Ruler in his hand tighter, and his expression became more cautious.

Tan Xuan shook his flashlight inside, his brows gradually furrowed, he shook his head and said, "That's not right!"

"What's wrong?" Xiao Di and Lao Qiu Tou both looked at Tan Xuan. The beam of the flashlight was limited. They couldn't see anything clearly after just shining it. They just knew that this place was bigger than the previous one.

"The yin energy here is very strong, and there is also a lot of evil spirits mixed in, but I didn't find the existence of yin things."

"Are they hiding?" Old Qiutou asked in a deep voice, saying that there are no ghosts here, even an insider like him disagreed.

Tan Xuan shook his head again and walked to the middle, saying as he walked: "It's not like that, if there is a ghost, it can't escape my eyes at all, unless it is much stronger than me."

"Did it find us coming and run away?" Old Qiu Tou asked.

Tan Xuan nodded with a cold face, "It's possible that when I got rid of Wang Dongxue's ghost last time, I had contact with the evil ghost's ghost consciousness. Maybe I alerted the snake at that time."

It seemed that tonight's efforts were in vain. Tan Xuan was very angry, but he still walked forward very carefully. Even if he was disappointed, he had to check it out first before being disappointed, just in case something unexpected happened.

"ah!"

Xiao Di suddenly screamed, and then hugged Tan Xuan's arm.

"There are bones on the ground!"

Xiao Di said in panic, shining the flashlight on the ground. There were indeed bones under her feet, and there were more than one. They were all stepping on them now, and she was sure they were human bones, because that was the posture of a person lying on the ground, everywhere.

The bones of the corpse could be clearly seen, but they were so old that they turned them into pieces when they stepped on them. Xiao Di did not dare to look at it. Even she who had seen corpses did not dare to face such a scene at this time. She was completely

There is no comparison. Xiao Di closed his eyes, hugged Tan Xuan's arm tightly, and tried not to cry.

Tan Xuan took a flashlight and shined it on the ground, and couldn't help grinning. It was a road paved with human bones, with human bones placed one after another. It was nearly three meters wide and was paved from the door to the inside.

"What does this mean? Human bones paving the road, does it mean that one general will succeed and thousands of bones will wither?" Tan Xuan shook his head, took Xiao Di to the side, and did not continue to stand on these human bones. He had not seen such a scene for several years.

, and now he suddenly can't accept it.

Old Qiu came over and sighed, "I guess so. This kind of burial method is not uncommon. No wonder the evil spirit here is so strong. These bones should be the servants of the owner of the tomb. It seems that here

The owner of this tomb is not a kind person, and the person who built this tomb is even more vicious."

"More than just being vicious, he is simply inferior to humans and beasts. They have corpses but no souls. From birth to death, there is no resistance at all." Tan Xuan continued to walk forward. He knew that the end of the road paved with human bones must be this wooden thing.

The master’s resting place.

Sure enough, after walking for a while, they found that the Bone Road finally reached the end, and it was about thirty or forty meters from the door. There was a one-foot-high stone platform on the ground, with cloud patterns carved on the side.

There are lampstands around, but they are just decorations at night. Not to mention there is no lamp oil, and the lamps are incomplete.

There is a coffin as tall as a person sitting on the stone platform. The coffin is very large, almost two meters wide and three to four meters long. The material does not look like wood. It is rusty. When I shine it with a flashlight, it glows black and green.

, vaguely reflecting a bit of metallic light. Old Qiu Tou took a Luban ruler and knocked on it. There was a metallic sound of "dang-dang", and listening to the echo, it seemed that the thickness of the coffin was not thin. Tan Xuan turned the coffin around.

After walking around, the temperature in the coffin was lower than in other places, as if what was inside was not people, but ice cubes. Tan Xuan didn't stay nearby and went to look elsewhere.

Look elsewhere.

The main room is rectangular. Except for the direction in which it comes in, it is only about ten meters wide in total. However, there are three small doors in the other three directions. There seems to be a room behind each door. Tan Xuan took Xiao Di with him.

I went around every room with Old Qiu Tou.

The small room on the left should be the study room, which is full of collapsed and decaying bookshelves. As for the books and documents, there are no books at all. I don’t know if they were moved away by the "rats" who came before, or if they have all rotted into dust here. Anyway,

It's empty.

The small room on the right is a warehouse with a room full of pottery wine vessels. It seems that the owner of the tomb liked the things in the cup so much during his life that he even dedicated a room to hold wine after his death. Unfortunately, those wine jars now

The wine jars were all broken into pieces, even more fragmented than the skeletons in the main room, but no metal cups or cups were found among them.

When he arrived at the door of the small room behind the coffin, Tan Xuan stopped Xiao Di and Lao Qiu Tou behind him because he finally smelled a familiar scent here. Although it was very weak, he still caught it.

Tan Xuan shined his flashlight inside, and the person followed him in. At the same time, he clenched his fists, ready to deliver a fatal blow that would shock everyone and ghosts at any time. However, when he saw that there were no ghosts in the empty small room,

Tan Xuan's newly excited mood suddenly dropped. The small room was very clean, not even a mess or debris was found.

While Tan Xuan was in a daze, Xiao Di and Lao Qiu Tou also walked in. Xiao Di stretched out his hand in the air, closed his nose again, and said, "Why is there wind here? And it's also humid."

"Is there any?" Tan Xuan looked at Xiao Di and then at Old Qiu Tou. Just now when he came in, he was thinking about how to defeat the enemy with one move. All his attention was focused on finding the hiding place of the evil ghost.

I didn't pay attention to the air circulation and humidity issues here.

After all, women are careful. Xiao Di soon noticed the difference. He pointed to the wall behind and said to Tan Xuan: "Look, there are cracks on the stone wall here, and it is also very wet."

"Are there caves and underground water nearby?" Tan Xuan looked confused. Today was completely in vain.

"It should be like this." Old Qiu Tou came over and picked up Tan Xuan's head and said, at the same time he spread out his palm. Under the illumination of the flashlight, there was a piece of paper dust the size of a millet grain in his palm.

"You see, my Talisman Bird flew here, which means this is where the dead soul went."

"So that's it. No wonder the victims are all by the water, hum!" Tan Xuan suddenly sneered. Then he walked around the small room to make sure there was no hiding place, and then looked at Xiao Di

After pointing out the cracks, he turned around and walked out of the small room, walked to the cold coffin, reached out and patted the front of the coffin.

"You used your absolute strength to nourish the Yin and planned to conquer all directions in another world. Unfortunately, you didn't expect that someone would occupy the magpie's nest. It ended up like this. How sad! Even a ghost dared to come to your place and act recklessly. Not to mention your property.

You didn't stop the rats from moving them away. It seems that you, a general, are not very good. So let me see what kind of thing you are now. If you are dead, don't think about staying in another form.

In this world."

As he spoke, Tan Xuan put the flashlight in his mouth, stretched out his hand to hold the cover of the coffin, and pushed hard. The cover did not move at all. Tan Xuan continued to push, but there was still no reaction at all.

Xiao Di thought that Tan Xuan couldn't accept this reality for a while and became insane. Regardless of the pain in his ankle, he ran to the stone platform, grabbed Tan Xuan's arm and shouted: "Don't do this, it will run away as soon as it runs away."

, let’s just think of a way, don’t fight with this thing, let’s go.”

"Tan Xuan, I'm begging you, let's go. If there is a ghost, there will be ghosts. Why don't we just destroy it when we encounter it again? What are you doing..." Xiao Di was anxious.

Gradually he began to cry.

"What are you doing?" Tan Xuan suddenly put down his arms, picked up the flashlight, and asked Xiao Di with a smile.

"Ah! Are you okay?" Xiao Di felt that Tan Xuan's playful expression was friendly for the first time. He immediately burst into laughter and took Tan Xuan's arm and said, "Then let's go quickly."

Tan Xuan shook his arm, "Why are we walking? There are still things to do."

"Is there anything else?" Xiao Di asked puzzledly.

Tan Xuan patted the coffin and asked Xiao Di: "This coffin is the only one in the entire tomb that is intact. Don't you think it's strange?"

Xiao Di shook her head vigorously, "It's not strange, let's leave quickly." She didn't want to stay here for a moment longer and wanted to go out immediately. It was strange that there was no coffin in the grave.

Tan Xuan waved his hand, "This is where the formation point is. The Yin evil energy around the entire tomb has gathered. The corpse in the coffin is nourished by the Yin evil energy and will not rot or deteriorate. Over time, it will become

The Inferi will transform into a corpse when the right opportunity comes. When it breaks out of the ground, it will be another scourge. I encountered it today, so I will take care of it to prevent it from harming others in the future. You hide aside and wait.

Let's go after I finish cleaning up."

"Old Qiu Tou, come here and help." Xiao Di couldn't count on him, so Tan Xuan could only ask Old Qiu Tou for help. It didn't matter how old he was, he was a good helper if he could contribute something.

"okay."

Old Qiu Tou agreed and went up to the stone platform and stood beside Tan Xuan. When Xiao Di saw that Tan Xuan insisted on this, he obediently stepped aside and stood at the foot of the stage.

"One, two, get up..."

"One, two, get up..."

Two people are stronger than one person. With the joint efforts of Tan Xuan and Lao Qiu Tou, the thick cover of the coffin was finally pushed open a gap. It turned out that the cover of the coffin was not lifted but pushed. Tan Xuan

If you opened it the wrong way just now, your efforts would be completely in vain.

"Clang!"

There was a burst of dust, and with the joint efforts of the two, the cover was finally pushed to the ground.

Tan Xuan asked Old Qiu Tou to step back from the stone platform. He climbed onto the coffin himself, stood at the four corners and stretched his hands inside to pat it. When the whole coffin began to shake, he immediately jumped down and hid far away.

"Squeak...clang...clang..."

The coffin on the stone platform fell apart like flowers. It turned out that the metal coffin was connected through a mechanism. Just now Tan Xuan broke the mechanism and it fell apart.

Tan Xuan clapped his hands and said with a wry smile: "Fortunately, we didn't know about electric welding in ancient times. If it was welded, we wouldn't be able to open it at all."

Xiao Di looked at the wooden coffin in the middle of the metal plates. Although it was a lot smaller than the one outside, just over two meters long and half a meter high, the shape was complete and it fell there.

Like the stars holding the moon, he asked in confusion: "Why is there a coffin inside the coffin?"

Tan Xuan did not expect Xiao Di to be so ignorant, so he explained: "The broken one is called the coffin, and it is used to hold the coffin. The one inside is the coffin for the corpse."

When dealing with the wooden coffin, Tan Xuan didn't need help from others. He stepped forward and patted the lid of the coffin, walked around the coffin, found the eight wooden wedges for nailing the coffin, and knocked them one by one.

, then stood in front of the coffin and violently lifted it, pushing the entire coffin cover to the side. Then he jumped again and jumped onto the lampstand nearby, looking down into the coffin with a wary face.

The whole main room was completely quiet, there was no sound of breathing, and the three living people were staring at the coffin without blinking. According to Tan Xuan, as soon as the coffin was opened and the internal and external auras collided, the corpse inside would

It will raise the corpse. But now there is no reaction at all. After a burst of cold air drifts away, a red quilt embroidered with bat patterns is covered in the coffin. There are bulges under the quilt. It is impossible to tell whether the corpse is rotten or intact.

"What's going on? Didn't it absorb enough Yin evil energy?" Tan Xuan was also confused in his heart. He jumped on the stone platform and circled half a circle around the coffin. When he came to the end of the coffin, he suddenly stretched out his hand to lift it off.

The quilt in the coffin turned red when exposed to the air and was no longer bright.

"Gah..."

Before the quilt fell to the ground, a scream suddenly came from the coffin, and then the body inside stood up straight.

"Ah! It's a fake corpse!"

Although he was mentally prepared, Xiao Di still covered his face and screamed.
