When Ning Chen expressed his thoughts, everyone fell into silence. The copper coffin was mysterious and unpredictable, and there was no telling whether it would be good or bad to tamper with it rashly, but it was obviously not a good idea to break out of the cave directly.
For a moment, everyone hesitated.
Ning Chen stood up: "Although the copper coffin is mysterious, it seems to have been there for countless years. Even though there are great people buried inside, people have been dead for countless years. Is it possible that they can still survive?"
Immediately, Ning Chen walked towards the door.
Lin Yin quickly grabbed Ning Chen, and everyone else looked at him nervously, urging him not to be impulsive.
Ning Chen shook his head and said: "I have made up my mind. This is our hope of leaving this place. It is worth a try."
Xu You pulled him and said: "Even if you want to try, you shouldn't come. The reason why you came to Longhu Mountain is to help and to save Lin Yin. There is no reason to put you in danger. I will do it."
"No." Lin Yin said immediately, "I'll do it."
Seeing Xu You and Lin Yin arguing about risking their lives, Ning Chen laughed and said: "Brother Xu, Senior Sister Lin Yin, please stop arguing. Since I decided to do this, I must know it well. Don't worry, I'm not ignorant.
As a serious person, if something cannot be done, I will give up immediately."
In fact, the reason why Ning Chen wanted to come by himself was because he had the Bronze Immortal Palace as his trump card, and he also had an embroidered sword.
Although he didn't know whether the Bronze Immortal Palace and the Embroidered Sword would work, at least he was more sure than others.
Pushing the two people aside, Ning Chen walked into the passage.
A group of people followed behind, Jiang Yun had a dark look in her eyes, and finally sighed.
The copper coffin is silent and covered with patina. It has been here for who knows how many years. It exudes a simple atmosphere and has many patterns carved on it, which is very mysterious.
"Ning Chen." Xu You pulled Ning Chen.
"Don't worry." Ning Chen smiled and walked towards the copper coffin. He did not rush to open the restaurant, but put one hand on the copper coffin.
For a moment, his mind roared, and countless images flashed through his mind.
He saw a middle-aged man dressed as a Taoist priest. He was tall and handsome. He was obviously a handsome boy when he was young.
However, the middle-aged Taoist priest closed his eyes tightly. There was a wound on his chest, which oozed light blood. It seemed that his heart had been pierced and he was dead. He was being carried, and many people were kneeling and crying. The sky suddenly became dark and it started to rain.
Light rain.
Later, Ning Chen saw the copper coffin. What surprised him was that the middle-aged Taoist priest looked like he was about to be buried, but the copper coffin was already rusty. It was no different from what he saw now, as if it had been buried underground.
Countless years, very strange.
How can anyone be buried in an old coffin?
The middle-aged Taoist priest was buried in a copper coffin. Buried with him was a bronze sword and two seals. The lid of the copper coffin was closed. Amidst the cries, someone carried the copper coffin into a jagged and strange rock - Ning Chen recognized
It's the sword forest that comes out.
A group of people carried the copper coffin through the forest of swords and entered an alien space.
The alien space in the picture is full of birds singing and flowers are fragrant. It is like a paradise, which is very different from now. However, Ning Chen can be sure that it is the alien space they are in now.
I just don’t know what happened, or maybe after an unknown number of years of evolution, the alien space that was originally like a paradise has become as eerie and terrifying as it is now.
The copper coffin was placed on a stone platform, surrounded by nine huge stone pillars, supporting the dome of the cave.
The people retreated, leaving only the copper coffin.
The picture began to stop. Maybe it wasn't still, but a picture kept repeating. Ning Chen couldn't tell. In short, he didn't know how long it had been before a sound came from the copper coffin. He saw the middle-aged Taoist priest in the copper coffin move.
The clothes on the middle-aged Taoist priest have faded, but his body has not decayed. It is the same as when he was buried. It is not lifelike, but there is no corruption at all, and the body is extremely well preserved.
At this moment, the middle-aged Taoist priest suddenly moved. To be precise, his clothes suddenly moved. A small hole appeared on his chest. That was the wound on his chest. A bug crawled out of it.
The maggots are slightly larger and fleshy.
Corpse worm!
It turns out that this is how zombies come from.
Ning Chen's heart was shocked and he wanted to scream, but he couldn't do it. It was as if his soul had left his body, unable to control his body and unable to make a sound.
He could only watch silently, watching the corpse insect crawl out of the wound on the middle-aged Taoist priest's chest. It crawled onto the middle-aged Taoist priest's neck, as if it wanted to take a bite.
Suddenly, the bronze sword vibrated, and Ning Chen seemed to hear a "clang" sound. Silently, a sword mark appeared on the corpse insect, almost cutting it in half.
The corpse insect did not dare to move. It waited until the sound of the sword had subsided before it continued to squirm, crawling on the body of the middle-aged Taoist priest and on the copper coffin.
I don't know how much time passed, but the corpse insect seemed to have grown a bit bigger, and its movements became more flexible. It even grew a pair of fleshy wings and flapped its wings to fly in the copper coffin.
It seemed to be dissatisfied with being trapped in the copper coffin, so it began to push open the copper coffin, struggling to squeeze out a gap, and then it turned into fleshy flesh like a maggot, and its body squeezed out of the gap little by little, and finally unfolded its flesh.
Wings, flying happily in the cave.
After flying around, the corpse insect stopped on the copper coffin. Looking at the corpse of the middle-aged Taoist priest in the copper coffin, it seemed a little scared, and finally closed the copper coffin again.
When the copper coffin was closed, the picture in Ning Chen's mind stopped abruptly.
At the same time, Ning Chen regained control of his body.
"Ning Chen, how are you?"
"Are you okay? Don't scare us."
The shouts of Xu You, Lin Yin and others came to my ears.
Ning Chen exhaled a breath and said to several people: "I'm fine."
Hearing this, several people breathed a sigh of relief.
Then Ning Chen said something again, which made Xu You, Lin Yin and others tremble. He said: "I know how the corpse worms came."
Obviously, the corpse worm was born from the corpse of a middle-aged Taoist priest, and finally gradually evolved into the female worm it is today.
However, Ning Chen did not explain immediately. He jumped off the platform, bowed to the copper coffin three times, then jumped back on the platform, used both hands to push the copper coffin open a gap.
A middle-aged Taoist priest was lying in the copper coffin. It was exactly the same as the scene Ning Chen saw just now. There was a small hole in his chest, which had no blood stains for a long time. The corpse worm came out of that small hole.
"What I saw is what really happened." Ning Chen was shocked in his heart. This middle-aged Taoist priest was obviously extraordinary. Otherwise, he would not have been buried in a copper coffin and buried in this alien space that ordinary people could not find.
It is even less likely that corpse bugs will be born after death.
But how did such a person die? Whose hand was that sword on his chest?
These questions flashed through Ning Chen's mind.
He shook his head and looked at the bronze sword buried with the middle-aged Taoist priest He He. The sword was in its scabbard and looked very ordinary.
But Ning Chen knew that this bronze sword was terrifying. When the corpse worm was about to eat the corpse of the middle-aged Taoist priest, the bronze sword spontaneously clanged and struck out with a sword light, almost splitting the corpse worm in half.
