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 spearman in front of Commander Li Shunda's account. 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 product, 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 this ancient spring fifty-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 faces 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 I 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 a small, irregular-shaped hole in the middle. This small hole was narrow at both ends and wide at the other, 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 at the other. 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 expression 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."
"Explosives..." We did have this thing before. The detonators were in Sister Hong's bag. We used two of them and there were still some left. However, we were arrested later and even the backpack was taken away by the gang.
Sister Hong glanced at the head.
He shook his head and said that he didn't have anything like that with him.
Everyone is silent now. If we had enough time, we could always find a way to open this partition in the coffin, but we don't have that time. According to the leader's guess, the group may already be on their way here.
At this time, I raised my hand and said hesitantly: "How about... how about we withdraw first?"
"No, I'm thinking of other ways." He took a deep breath, not wanting to give up just like that.
At this moment, footsteps suddenly came from outside the cave entrance. I saw a few flashlights flashing in the distance, and vaguely heard someone's voice.
I took two steps back and said in shock, "Run quickly! That group is coming!"
"Run? Boy, where are you going? Go underground?" Beggar Liu pulled out his soft sword and sneered at the corner of his mouth.
Yao Yumen also took out her small pistol with a gloomy face and filled the magazine one by one.
With veins looming on his forehead, he whispered to us: "Remember, follow my instructions."
I tightened my grip on the cyclone shovel, swallowed, and stared in the direction of the hole.
The footsteps were approaching, and the flashlight lights were getting louder and brighter.
When I turned a corner, I first saw Chen Jiansheng, who was leading the way. Behind him were a group of people, including a few familiar faces I had seen before. Xiao Tutou, Owl Woman, Brother Jian and others were among them. They
Some people are holding machetes, and some are holding guns. There are twice as many people as we have here.
We hurried slowly and hurriedly, and finally we bumped into each other, but I think the boss's current intentions were that he probably wasn't trying to hide.
At this moment, people from both sides met each other.
"Hey, isn't this Chen Hong? And this kid, are you hiding here?" Chen Jiansheng glared at me with a flashlight. Sister Hong looked at her coldly and didn't say a word.
He raised his head and raised his hands to signal us not to act rashly.
"Northern faction, Wang Xiansheng," Tou Tou greeted Xiao Tuo Tou.
When the two sides were at war with each other, Xiao Tuan came out with his hands behind his back and said, "Wang Xiansheng, right? I know you, and I also know that you have come down a long time ago. You are worthy of being a burrower. I have been sending people to look for you, but I can't find you."
Very good at hiding."
"What? Have you figured it out and don't hide it anymore, or... do you want to compete with me, the old man?"
"Tch, sir," Chen Jiansheng suddenly laughed and said, "There are so many of us, and Brother Jian and Sister Wen are also here, how dare these low-class burrowing rats show their teeth to us?"
I was furious after hearing this, and the young man became impulsive. As long as I gave the order, I dared to rush forward with the shovel! It was just a dead bird facing upwards. It was really frustrating to be caught and chased along the way.
It's better to fight them with real swords and guns instead of being so cowardly! Just die!
With a calm expression on his face, he sneered: "That's right, we don't dare to mess with the Changchun Society, and we are indeed mice."
"But... rats can eat people if they are anxious, don't you think so?"
"Ding..." This crisp sound came, and Xiao Tuantou noticed the person behind him.
The beggar Liu flicked the sword with his fingers, and grinned: "Old Su Qin, I haven't seen you for more than ten years. Although I am no longer in Changchun, I still miss you, old boy, sometimes."
