Chapter 59: The Sarcophagus

The centuries-old tomb mound has long been leveled, and orange trees have even been planted on it. However, it is obvious that the trees planted on it are not growing very well.

Of course, it was not Ding Li's turn to do the digging work. A dozen strong young men whom he had seen last time started digging with spit in their palms. Naturally, the speed was extremely fast.

However, after digging to a depth of more than two meters, it couldn't be dug anymore. When the pickaxe dug up, it felt like it had hit rocks, and they all bounced back.

Ding Li's head was sweating, and he was ready to take action. Zhang Lianjiang went up to take a look: "It's okay, we met Sanhetu. Section Chief Yang?"

Section Chief Yang waved his hand and called out: "Xiao Luo!" Then a dark and capable young man came out and quickly started digging holes and burying holes. It seemed that he was either from the bureau or a demolition expert seconded by the army.

Ding Li didn't know much about explosions. He thought that the explosion would make an earth-shattering noise and the entire ground would be overturned. He was still worried that the zombies below would be disturbed and transform into corpses before they were transformed?

Obviously Ding Li's worries are unnecessary. This is called hole blasting. The explosion is not silent. At least it is just a slight vibration under his feet, and the rocks and soil fly up to create a big hole. That capable young man

After checking for a long time, he fired two more shots, and then said: "It's almost done, you can do the rest yourself!"

This time we dug very quickly, and the tomb was not too deep, only about five or six meters. Except for places in the northwest where the soil is deep, it is difficult to dig more than ten meters.

By this time when the tomb was being dug, traces of moist water had begun to appear, and the soil had begun to become thinner.

Ding Li sighed a little: "Master Zhang, isn't this a place where corpses are buried? There is water in it, why shouldn't anything be soaked to death?"

Zhang Lianjiang didn't even raise his eyes and said angrily: "You know nothing! Keep digging."

It wasn't long before they saw the coffin, and everyone started to get nervous.

"Oh my god, this coffin is made of stone!"

A young man suddenly rolled out of the pit, trembling with fear. Even these ordinary honest laborers knew that stone coffins were not a good choice.

Zhang Lianjiang kicked the guy down and said, "Go ahead and dig for me and do as I say! Otherwise, you'll have a good look!"

Those young laborers were obviously in awe of Zhang Lianjiang. They were originally panicking and wanted to escape, but were calmed down by the roar and continued digging obediently until the sarcophagus was completely exposed.

"Stop!" Zhang Lianjiang shouted hurriedly. All the labor was as if he had received an amnesty, and he stopped immediately: "Bring me this coffin!"

Despite all the reluctance, the laborers still used ropes to drop the coffin out. At this time, even Zhang Lianjiang was sweating on his forehead. It is hard to say whether this thing is dangerous or not, it has been rare for decades at least.

If corpses were mortued and buried in the past, this thing could often be seen. Spell practitioners also have to deal with this thing frequently, but now it is difficult to see them even if they practice spells, unless they are all ancient corpses.

If you don’t understand something, you have no confidence!

The sarcophagus was actually sealed with glutinous rice mixed with lime. Seeing this scene, everyone had cold sweat on their foreheads. Even Section Chief Yang, who was standing far away, craned his neck to look over, his expression very exciting.

Zombies are an evil thing that can be seen and touched. What people fear most is actually the unknown. Although they are afraid of this thing, they are more curious about it.

Zhang Lianjiang swallowed and did not rush to open the restaurant. Instead, he shouted: "Everyone, step back and check around. Don't let any cats or dogs come over."

Ding Li nodded repeatedly. As expected of an old Jianghu, he had thought carefully. Many times, corpse transformations are caused by cats and dogs. It is said that the excess yang energy is given to zombies...

Zhang Lianjiang began to set up a formation around the coffin, which Ding Li roughly recognized. It was made of seven copper coins in the shape of the Big Dipper. Each copper coin had a peach wood nail nailed in the middle and sprinkled with rooster blood.

There are too many seven-star Taoists, and each family has its secrets that are not passed down. However, it never changes from its sect. Ding Li has already seen that this seven-star array is used to calm the soul. Whether it is copper coins, peach wood or rooster blood

They are all objects of the highest yang, and they are the most capable of restraining ghosts.

Ding Li also prepared his tools and was just waiting to pry open the coffin lid.

At this time, everyone was extremely nervous, fearing that something would suddenly jump out. For a while, all they could hear in silence was the heavy breathing of everyone.

Two iron rods were inserted into the coffin lid. Zhang Lianjiang and Ding Li did it themselves. They were afraid that the labor would spoil the matter without knowing the importance of the labor. The coffin lid was gently moved open a crack, and a lot of glutinous rice and glutinous rice were used to seal the lid.

The lime was so wet from the groundwater that it couldn't be opened without a pick.

At this time, you can see some traces of vermilion inside. It looks like cinnabar, but it has been soaked by someone, so it must have expired long ago.

It seems that the owner of this coffin probably showed signs of transformation when he died, otherwise there would be no need for such a careful burial.

The stone coffin lid was very heavy, and Ding Li had to use a lot of strength to move the coffin lid.

At this time, the most taboo thing is to talk, for fear that the Yang Qi will be exceeded and the things inside will be exposed. In addition to the sound of heavy breathing, the only sound at this time is the friction of stones when the coffin lid is opened.

I don’t know if the soul-suppressing array deployed by Zhang Lianjiang was effective, but nothing jumped out even after the coffin lid was completely opened.

Ding Li took a quick look and saw that the moisture inside the coffin was not very high. He could also clearly see a dark corpse lying in the coffin with a weird posture. It was wrapped in a rotten quilt that could not be seen clearly.

He was wearing it, and there was a yellow paper charm affixed to his forehead.

God knows which master drew this talisman, but it has been placed in such a humid environment for hundreds of years without any problems. It shows that the master who drew the talisman has incredible magic power. How long can the aura on the talisman paper be preserved?

For hundreds of years, it has not been rotten by the humid environment. This method is enough to make a young boy like Ding Li sigh in despair!

Ding Lizai took a closer look and saw that the ragged quilt was originally tied with ink threads, but now the ink threads had long since broken.

But there are corpses inside, but there are no signs of decay. Using the word "lifelike" is too exaggerated. For example, when Ding Li saw the female corpses in Mawangdui before, they all looked like that, but he couldn't see anything lifelike.

Look.

This corpse is also ordinary. Although it is not rotten, the exposed skin is pitch black and the beard is several inches long. The nails and other things are wrapped in the quilt and cannot be seen.

At this time, Zhang Lianjiang breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the business was going to be done this time!
