Seeing me in a daze, the old man glared at me and said with some pride: "This Yinggan Tongbao is indeed passed down in the family. My ancestor Zhao was the spear-bearing doctor in front of Commander Li Shunda. In addition to protecting Commander Li personally, my ancestors
Security, and also responsible for the work of chasing away corpses and collecting corpses on the battlefield."
I thought to myself, "No wonder, this kind of orphaned family item, it is impossible to say that there is no trace of historical inheritance. One day, this man will stop doing this business. If nothing else, just spend this ancient spring fifty
Sending famous and large treasures up for auction, the money earned in exchange may not even be used by his children and grandchildren."
Then, with a nervous look on his face, the old man held the money in his mouth, looked at his head and said, "It should be almost done, let's open it."
"Yeah." He nodded solemnly.
It was impossible to push the lid of such a heavy bronze coffin open directly with our hands, so the boss and I used the method of "rushing", using the steel handle of the cyclone shovel as a crowbar to push it in, using the principle of leverage, and then
Move little by little.
As we continued to exert force, the bronze coffin lid made bursts of unpleasant and harsh friction sounds.
There was only one breath of corpse aura before, and with a bang, the nearly 1,000-pound coffin lid fell heavily to the ground, stirring up a lot of dust.
Mr. Zhao was on guard with the money in his mouth. The boss and I lowered our heads and raised our flashlights to shine inside.
Seeing the scene in the coffin, even though I had prepared myself mentally before, I still felt my stomach churn and I almost vomited.
It's so disgusting... It's so disgusting, no wonder it smells so bad!
The expressions of everyone who saw this scene changed, because we saw that the coffin was covered with a layer of four-legged snake corpses, and there were more than a hundred of them! These four-legged snake corpses were entangled one by one, and formed a circle around each other.
The circles were like marijuana flowers, all in a semi-rotted state, with handfuls of large white maggots writhing up and down among the rotten snake meat.
The leader said with a gloomy face: "Where are the corpses? How can we take care of the corpses of these beasts and mustard?"
After saying that, he turned his head and refused to believe in evil. He endured the discomfort and used the cyclone shovel as a shovel to shovel twice into the snake's rotten flesh.
As his hands moved up and down, he shook his head and said, "No... there is a partition in this coffin, and there is another layer below!"
"Yunfeng, come and help, get these things out," he turned to me and told me.
The smell in the coffin was absolutely stinky. The shovel and I kept shoveling out the rotten four-legged snakes. There was a white layer on the surface of the cyclone shovel in my hand under the light of the flashlight. That was all
Maggots really make me sick.
After processing most of it, it turned out that it was just as the head said. There was a partition in the coffin, and a large number of four-legged snakes were laid flat on the partition. I tapped it with a shovel, and I could tell by the sound that there was space underneath.
At this time, Yao Yumen suddenly reminded: "Wang Boss, look quickly. Is there a small hole in the middle?"
Really, it was only after she reminded me and I noticed that there was indeed an irregularly shaped hole in the middle. The hole was narrow at both ends and wide in the middle, a bit like a certain type of keyhole.
"Huh?" Sister Hong suddenly said in surprise: "I seem to have seen something with this shape before..." She raised her eyes and looked at me and said, "Yunfeng, do you still remember that bronze?"
"Bronze? What bronze?"
Suddenly, memories of the previous scene flashed through my mind.
"Bronze axe? That ritual vessel!"
"That's right, that's it," Sister Hong pointed to the small hole and said, "It's narrow at both ends and wide in the middle. And you see, I visually judged that the size and width should be about the same."
How could this happen! Chen Jiansheng had obtained that thing before. According to this, that thing has probably fallen into the hands of Xiao Tuantou and his group!
With a gloomy look on his face, he asked the beggar Mr. Liu that he wanted to ask him to try and see if he could open this partition like before.
Unexpectedly, the beggar Liu shook his head after seeing it, and said: "I won't try it. It's useless even if I try it. The lid of the coffin was poured with copper water before. The lid and the coffin itself are separate. In addition, they have become seriously rusted after thousands of years."
, so I can open it.”
He pointed at this partition and shook his head and said: "Look, this partition was built together back then. It is one piece. I can't open it. It will be okay if I have explosives."
