I instantly recognized what it was. This kind of nail was made of brass and had eight edges. Brass is something that ghosts are taboo on, so this kind of nail is also called a "corpse nail." I immediately understood.
Come here, he was already dead when the old man found him. Maybe he had some horrible changes later. The old man was afraid that he would turn into a man-eating monster like a fat pile, so he nailed him to the coffin with "corpse nails"
But the old man didn't leave any room for anything, and he still couldn't bear to do it. It was said that there were six corpse-killing nails, and the two most important ones were nailed between the eyebrows and the heart of the corpse, but there were no nails on the body.
, indicating that the old man held back and did not want to destroy his body anymore.
In order to save the fat man, I couldn't care less. I reached out and pulled out a nail from his knee, and then pierced it directly through the forehead. The corpse let out a shrill scream, but it didn't seem to have much effect, and the corpse kept stopping.
It was trembling and violent.
"This won't work. It's probably because of the weirdness of this tree. We have to stop this corpse." Wang Kui shouted anxiously.
At this point, there was no other way. I could only take out the dagger and use all my strength to chop off Ma Gan's arms, freeing the fat man from the entanglement of the corpse.
"Cough, cough, cough, mother, look at me, I'm easy to bully, I'm going to mess with you today." The fat man cursed secretly, and wanted to rush over with a dagger.
But he was stopped by Wang Kui. "Little fat man, don't worry about the dead. People are already dead, and he doesn't want to do this. Besides, this is all the fault of this tree. If you want to blame, you should blame it too."
This tree is.”
"No way, old boy, how can you speak for a dead man? Master Gua, I have been tortured like this and you haven't shown any concern. Doesn't this dead man have anything to do with you?"
Wang Kui's face turned pale and he said: "Nonsense, what does I have to do with him? I know you feel wronged, but you don't want to think about who got these coffins?"
"Huh? After hearing what you said, I also feel a little strange. These coffins are not that old, and the dead people in them only look like they have been dead for decades. Who on earth got them in? Old boy, could it be that
you know?"
"Me? Of course I know, but if you want to know more clearly, you should ask Wang Fo."
"Young prince?" The fat man turned to look at me, full of doubts. I knew I couldn't hide it anymore, and I couldn't help but secretly blame Wang Kui, an old boy. He must have known about the situation here from the old man's mouth, but now he pushed the question to me.
, in this case, even if the matter spreads, the old man will not cause trouble for him. He is really a treacherous person.
"To tell you the truth, Fatty, these coffins may have been brought here by my grandfather. At least the people inside are his old friends. These people were trapped here to help him. Maybe it was out of morality. I
Grandpa gathered them here. It can be said that they are the benefactors of our Wang family. Disturbing them today has made me very uneasy, so I don’t want to harm their bodies anymore."
"That's it, hey, little prince, you didn't tell me earlier. It's not that I don't insist on doing anything, I just have a fire in my heart that I want to vent. Since everyone here has such a deep connection with you,
Naturally, I can't go too far. Okay, let's get this place done quickly, and we have to find the exit later."
We nailed the coffin and stuffed it back again. After exiting the cave, we blocked the entrance with stones again. But the next steps were very disappointing. We searched the entire closed cave but couldn't find the exit. Except for the one above
The hole we smashed out has no passage at all.
"It seems we have to climb up that tree." The fat man said helplessly.
It seems that this is the only way at present. I also feel helpless. Although we are full of vigilance and rejection of this demon dragon beard, we have to make this choice.
"That's not necessarily the case." Wang Kui said softly. His face that was a little anxious just now was now full of relief, and it seemed that he was confident.
"Why, old boy, do you have any better idea?"
"It's not that I have any good ideas, but we have overlooked a very important thing." Wang Kui said and pointed to the cave we just drilled into.
"That place? But we have already entered it just now. There is no exit inside. Did you make a mistake, old boy?"
Wang Kui was still smiling, not worried at all. "I'm not talking about the exit, but the three coffins. How did they get in?"
"Of course they were brought in. Huh? What do you mean, old boy, where did they get it from?"
"That's right, there was no hole here at the beginning, which means there must be an exit hidden here, but we just didn't find it."
"What you say makes sense, but where is this exit hidden? We have searched all around."
"No, there's still one place we haven't looked for yet."
The fat man and I looked at each other in confusion. After thinking for a while, we suddenly turned our heads to look behind us and exclaimed in unison: "You mean under the pool?"
"Yes, anyway we should go down and have a look. If someone can come in and go out at that time, we can do the same."
The fat man scratched his head and said: "Isn't this similar to climbing a tree? We don't want to climb from above because we are afraid that the tree will be weird. If we go down to the bottom of the water, wouldn't we be crawling into a human nest?"
Wang Kui smiled, but did not mention the matter, but said: "Aren't you curious, where did the people who came in the first place come in? Where does the other end lead to?"
I suddenly realized that Wang Kui was not just looking for the exit, but was full of curiosity about the way he came in. Indeed, after hearing what he said, I was also very curious about where the coffin could be transported in.
Where does it lead to?
Naturally, the fat man who had the best water skills took the lead. The three of us prepared a little and slipped into the water. The water here is very clear, so we don’t have to worry about not being able to see clearly. The water is much shallower than we thought and we made it easy.
We arrived at the bottom of the water. But the situation at the bottom of the water is not so easy to understand, because the roots of this Demonic Dragon Beard tree are very developed, almost filling the pool below. The crisscrossing roots are entangled and densely packed.
It’s hard to see clearly. We have to drill through the gaps in the tree roots to see clearly what’s inside and underneath, but this takes a lot of time. It’s difficult for us to do this without diving equipment.
