It was just dawn, and the light conditions were not very good under the deep pit that was originally a large swamp.
But it was enough to see clearly the underground tomb that had been buried for many years and finally saw the light of day...
Motes of dust floated in the beams of sunlight, and the golden iron rod passed from top to bottom, carrying Lynch and Robin slowly to the underground tomb. They walked down from the golden iron rod one after another, Lin Qi and Robin walked slowly.
Qi flipped it over casually, and the golden iron rod flipped over and fell into his hand under the magnetic pull. Behind the two of them, a black armor with narrow and shimmering eyes also floated over, turning around to observe in this underground tomb.
The underground tomb is naturally a "chamber".
In fact, this is a huge stone chamber. It goes deep into the elephant master's back, forming a quite large underground space. The four walls, as well as the ground under the feet of Lynch, Robin and ".b", are all quite regular and solid green.
slate.
Lynch and the double looked at each other. This environment reminded them both of that island whale, Rab.
Rab's body has been transformed by One Piece's ship's doctor Kurokas. There is a passage that is like a corridor to humans for Doctor Kurokas to enter and exit, so that he can enter Rab's body at any time and inject him with a sedative.
and treat injuries.
Compared with Rab's level of body modification, the underground tomb, which is at most ten meters high on the back of the huge elephant master, may not even have completely penetrated its thick skin... Even if it penetrated the skin, it would not be enough.
It's like having a sore on your back, and it's covered with a "band-aid" bluestone.
And on the walls and floors of these bluestone slabs, scratches can be seen at any time.
Some have several scratches juxtaposed, with rough marks and irregular outlines.
And some are scattered one after another, and some are crisscrossed vertically and horizontally, with narrower and deeper incisions...
"There are claw marks from wild beasts and sword marks from swordsmen's strikes."
Robin stroked the ancient scratches on the bluestone wall, looked at each other with Lynch, and both remembered the corpse they first discovered, the Wolf Lord, the king of the fur tribe hundreds of years ago.
The Wolf Lord is here, fighting someone—did he fight a certain swordsman?
Is it also because of this that the Wolf Lord died in this underground tomb without being known to anyone, and was eventually buried under the swamp?
Robin was observing the structure, layout, materials, and decoration features of the tomb... and even based on these layouts, he quickly deduced the location of the tomb where the coffin was actually placed.
"It should be over there."
Robin showed the way and took Lynch and ".b" to avoid other roads and go to the tomb. He soon heard the voices of the fur tribe who were walking ahead.
"What's going on?!" This exclamation was obviously that of a cat viper.
"Don't be loud, youkai cat... This is a tomb related to the Wolf Lord and Kozuki." The voice that contained anger was obviously Inuarashi's.
Then there were the cat and dog bickering in low voices. Lynch and Robin followed the sound and turned the corner into a doorless tomb room. They were surprised when they saw it.
In the middle of the tomb, just as Robin expected, there was a coffin - and indeed there was no coffin lid; the lid was obviously the one that Robin and the others had discovered before, and it was engraved with the Kozuki family crest and ancient characters.
Cats, dogs, and other fur-tribes of the Musketeers were gathered around the open coffin.
What surprised Robin was that beyond the coffin, on the stone wall with a special color directly opposite, there were dense ancient writings!
What surprised Lin Qi was the scene inside the coffin surrounded by cats and dogs - he was relatively tall, and he could see at a glance that there was a corpse lying in the open coffin!
Why is there still a corpse?
And he's still lying in this coffin?
No wonder Cat Viper screamed in surprise just now... After all, before they came down, they thought the three-meter-tall human was the person buried in the coffin.
But since there is already a corpse owner in this coffin, who was it that they fished out before?
"It's a little smaller than that one..."
Lynch walked to the coffin and observed the corpse inside the coffin with the cats, dogs and other fur tribes. Compared with the three-meter human skeleton found last night, the one inside the coffin was obviously much slender.
Cat Viper frowned, "It seems that this person is Guangyue who wrote the ancient words on the back of the coffin lid? And the corpse we found before..."
"Maybe it's the 'Tianyue Jushi'!" Inu Lan said solemnly and shook his head, "Or maybe it's not..."
Cat Viper rolled her eyes, "You've finished everything, right?"
He grinded his teeth and growled: "You also saw those claw marks and sword marks outside! Who did the Wolf Lord fight here before, so he died inexplicably!" He counted the cat's claws one by one, "We know here.
The only people in the world are the Wolf Lord, Guangyue and that Tianyue! Guangyue and the Wolf Lord are as close as brothers, so naturally they won’t be the ones fighting, then it’s only Tianyue! - The Wolf Lord died in the hands of Tianyue, and died in the hands of Tianyue.
In the middle of a fight with Tian Yue Gu Shi! And lying in this sarcophagus is a certain Guang Yue who resents Tian Yue Gu Shi!!"
Inuarashi stared at the corpse in the coffin.
Cat Viper said bitterly: "This also explains why Guangyue in the coffin said, 'The sky and the moon are visible, and this resentment and hatred will never be eliminated.' - The Wolf Lord died because of the sky and the moon, and
Of course Guangyue, who is as close to us as a brother, resents him extremely! He also said, 'I feel so guilty that I will never be able to repay it for the rest of my life' - isn't he just saying that he couldn't save the Wolf Lord, but he blames himself in his heart?!"
"You, an old dog like you, can't see clearly something so obvious. Don't you sympathize with that bastard named 'Tianyue Jushi'?" The cat Viper didn't know what kind of memories it evoked, and he raised his head with bloodshot eyes.
Lan's forehead, growled, "I knew it - you traitor is not on the side of 'Guangyue'!!!"
"Crazy cat, have you had enough?!" Inu Arashi was also furious, with the dog's head hitting Viper's head, "I just want to say that things are not that simple!"
"Think about it carefully - if this is really the case, why has nothing about the Wolf Lord and Guangyue in the coffin spread to our country?!" He pointed at the corpse lying in the coffin with his dog paw, "If it is
As you said, a 'Guangyue' hundreds of years ago failed to save the Wolf Lord, so he felt guilty! Then why did he still have time to finish carving the words on the back of the coffin lid and lie down in the coffin, but did not put it in the coffin?
Bring the truth out of this tomb - and let us understand what happened?!"
Cat Viper said angrily: "Maybe he was just too seriously injured and couldn't leave? Maybe the swamp appeared and he couldn't get out? Are you doubting the reputation of the samurai of the Kozuki family? I really misjudged you.
Got it!"
The two men were full of gunpowder within a few words, and were about to start a fight regardless of the situation. When the members of the Musketeers didn't know what to do, Lin Qi said leisurely: "Have you forgotten something?"
The cat and dog had their heads on top, panting angrily, and both turned to look at him.
Lynch pointed to the front, and the cats and dogs turned their heads to the other side. They saw that it was a stone wall with ancient writings carved on it. Nicole Robin was standing by the wall, with her back to everyone, looking up and observing intently.
With.
"Perhaps the truth you want can be engraved on it!" Lynch said angrily, "Why are you anxious before Robin finishes reading it?"
At this time, Robin stretched out his hand to touch the stone wall that was densely engraved with ancient characters. He suddenly retracted his hand and exclaimed in a low voice:
