Chapter 220 Stone Coffin and Confluence

Wang Kaixuan turned a deaf ear to Hu Bayi's teasing, and was still trying to show off his massage skills there.

As for where he learned such a skill, it can only be said that practice makes perfect, and the more times he is pressed, the better it will be.

After enjoying the limited service of the Fatty Wang version for a while, Chen Ziyan quickly gave the answer: "Did you forget that besides us, there are those trapped people in this tomb?"

Although it is not known whether those people are still alive, this statement cannot be false at all.

Wang Kaixuan failed to react immediately, and asked with some doubts: "Master Chen, what do you mean by that? The difficulty is that you want to exchange those people for ransom?"

But without waiting for Chen Ziyan to answer, he shook his head self-consciously: "This is not acceptable. If we do this, the nature of the matter will be different."

Don't look at this fat man who usually looks out of tune, but in serious matters he knows better than anyone else, what he can do and what he can't do, and he has his own scale in his heart.

If it was really the captive who came to exchange the ransom, how could he explain it to the police outside and say something else, but this is undoubtedly giving the other party a handle on his own initiative.

No matter what Wang Kaixuan said, he can be regarded as having been in various religions for many years. He knows that many things in this world have changed, such as the morals that everyone consciously abided by in the past.

If it is really a blackmail talk, it may be ordered by someone someday.

To be honest, he would rather settle these people here quietly than take such a risk.

Hearing Wang Kaixuan's self-talk, Chen Ziyan smiled and said, "What are you thinking? Just what are these three melons and two dates worth? I'm talking about the information hidden in their brains. Which one of these people is not a professional? Veterans in the field, don’t they have to have some information about the ancient tomb at the bottom of the box.”

The reason why he changed his words to say that it was a hidden treasure just now was because of this.

Although it is impossible for everyone to have something to hide, it is enough to ask for one.

Wang Kaixuan was very clever in this regard, and immediately understood what Chen Ziyan meant: "I understand, Master Chen."

"As for that group of goods, all of them are seasoned veterans, and most of them are a little stuff in the bottom of the box, especially those places that they can't deal with. There must be a lot of treasures."

Chen Ziyan nodded with a smile: "It's almost like that."

That's what he meant.

On the contrary, Hu Bayi said with some concern: "However, the risk of this matter is not small. If these guys deliberately play tricks, they will give us a dangerous position."

He knew that what Chen Ziyan said was very likely to succeed, but he also knew that although it could not be said that there were no good people who could stay in this industry for a long time, usually the bad people lived longer.

If he was placed in the corresponding position, he felt that he would tell the most dangerous place.

In this way, if you can survive afterwards, you will earn money. If you fail to survive afterwards, you may be able to invite some people to be buried with you.

Chen Ziyan naturally knew about Hu Bayi's worries, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He just smiled and said, "That depends on our fat master's methods."

When Wang Kaixuan heard this, he immediately patted his chest and made a guarantee: "That's right, look at Fatty's methods, I'm sure they will be able to explain everything obediently."

Hu Bayi didn't say anything more when he heard the words. He knew that Chen Ziyan's performance must have been calculated in his heart.

They continued to stay in the Underworld for a while, but after finding nothing, they walked through the stone gate to the front hall.

According to the layout of ancient Chinese mausoleums, the Hades Hall is the most important, followed by the Front Hall.

There is a saying that goes, "Things die like things live".

This shows that in the eyes of the ancients, things after death should be extremely important, even to some extent more important than before life.

Therefore, the front hall is generally built in imitation of the place where the tomb lived. It can be said that where you lived when you were alive, the front hall in this tomb will look like.

The same is true for this mausoleum of the Tang Dynasty. I saw that the scale of the front hall is larger than that of the underworld, but because the construction was stopped halfway, the pavilions and halls are all semi-finished products that have not yet been completed.

Standing at the stone gate and looking around, I found that the basic framework here is complete, but some important buildings have not been completely repaired.

There is a small fountain pool on the ground of the underground palace, and water is gurgling in the eyes of the spring, and the sound of water flow that they heard before came from here.

Hu Bayi looked at the small fountain and said: "It seems that this is the coffin spring in the legend. There is such a special spring in the tomb, but it is a top-quality treasure."

Wang Kaixuan stared at the spring water in the fountain, and asked curiously: "Then does this water have any miraculous effect, just like the water bladder we have encountered before?"

Judging by his appearance, it is estimated that only Hu Bayi said "yes", and he would immediately fill up all the containers on his body.

Hu Bayi explained helplessly: "Of course not. These two are completely different things. Water bladders are rare condensed water of anger. The spring water here is just an external feature of Feng Shui terrain. It is actually ordinary groundwater. There is no magic effect."

"Oh."

Hearing what he said, Wang Kaixuan instantly lost interest in Coffin Chung.

Because the stone gate of the underground palace has been completely sealed, so after staying here for a while, the group of them went back the same way and went to the apse and the side halls on the hatchback to have a look. Unfortunately, it was as empty as the Hades .

After returning to the Hades, Wang Kaixuan suddenly asked: "No, Master Chen, we have visited this tomb all over, why didn't we see Brother Wushuang and those people?"

It was only now that he suddenly realized this.

The others were also reminded by him, and they all looked at Chen Ziyan, wanting to hear what he would say.

Just like what Wang Kaixuan said, they have already visited the tomb, and the only thing left is the outer area sealed outside the stone gate. Could it be that Wushuang ghost and others are there?
"Look there."

Chen Ziyan did not answer this question directly, but pointed to the southeast corner of the Hades Hall.

Everyone looked over according to his guidance, and saw a vague tall figure appearing in the corner that was empty just now.

Due to the angle of the flashlight, the light was only slightly refracted, so I could barely see the outline of a human figure, but couldn't see more clearly.

At this time, they were standing at the stone gates of the Side Hall and the Nether Hall. Due to the distance, the figure looked extremely strange.

Wang Kaixuan looked at the figure, and asked tentatively, "Brother Wushuang, is that you?"

A figure suddenly appeared here, and the first thing he thought of was the Wushuang ghost who had already come down.

As for the other people, their height doesn't match.

But the other party didn't respond, and the only answer he had was silence.

After waiting for a while, seeing that the person was still motionless, Wang Kaixuan simply turned his heart and turned his flashlight to shine on it.

He wants to see what it is, and play tricks with him here!

Anyway, they have a large number of people now, and they still have weapons close to them. No matter what the opponent is, since they don't say anything, let's see for themselves.

However, under the light of the flashlight, what appeared was not a person, but a simple stone statue.

And behind this stone statue, there is a huge stone coffin, but all their attention was attracted by the stone statue before, so they didn't notice the lower stone coffin.

"Oh, here is a stone coffin?" Wang Kaixuan's attention was immediately attracted by the stone coffin.

They had checked this carefully before. At that time, apart from the half-finished murals on the wall, there was absolutely nothing in the Underworld.

Why did these two things suddenly come out when I went out and turned around?

Hu Bayi, on the other hand, remained calm, and said thoughtfully, "This stone coffin should not be from the Tang tomb, but from the ghost tomb."

The cloud and thunder patterns on the base of the stone coffin clearly proved this point.

While speaking, he slowly approached, and carefully looked at the stone coffin that suddenly appeared.

I saw that the stone coffin was gray in color, about [-] meters long and [-] meters high. The whole body was made of whole stone, and there was a giant relief of a human face on the four sides of the coffin body and the coffin cover.

These human face reliefs seem to be decorations on the stone coffin, and the carvings are detailed and distinct. They look like ordinary people at first glance, except that the ears are slightly larger, the eyes appear to be looking straight up, and there is no expression on the face.

Although I know it is a stone sculpture, it gives people an indescribable sense of eerie.

As the distance to the stone coffin got closer, the throbbing in Hu Bayi's heart became heavier.

It was as if a voice kept reminding him not to approach the stone coffin again.

Following Hu Bayi's departure, the others also followed.

Wang Kaixuan looked at the strange stone coffin and said, "Why does this thing look so evil? I don't think anything connected to the ghost tomb is normal."

The faint coldness emanating from the stone coffin not only made Hu Bayi feel bad, but even Wang Kaixuan, who was always greedy for money, was wary.

He no longer had the intention of opening a museum to get treasures when he first saw the stone coffin, and subconsciously wanted to stay away from this thing.

Given his personality is like this, one can imagine the weirdness of the stone coffin.

Chen Ziyan was also staring at the stone coffin. If he was most curious about something in the tomb before, it was undoubtedly the stone coffin from the ghost tomb.

In the original plot, after weighing the pros and cons, Hu Bayi and others chose to stay away from the stone coffin that suddenly appeared.

But Chen Ziyan wanted to open the coffin to see what was inside.

However, there is no rush to open the coffin. He plans to wait until the Wushuang ghosts are assembled before taking action.

If there is really a big rice dumpling in it, it will be easy to deal with it then.

Perhaps aware of Chen Ziyan's intentions, Hu Bayi hurriedly said: "I think we should avoid troubles, so hurry up and find Brother Wu Shuang."

Wang Kaixuan also responded from the side: "Yes, I guess they ran outside the underground palace. Let's go back down and dig a hole outside, and we should be able to find them soon."

Although Shirley Yang and Ding Sitian didn't speak, the silence at this moment represented their agreement.

Shirley Yang is actually okay to say that she has not experienced many adventures now, so her sense of danger is not yet sensitive.

But Ding Sitian has been through life and death, the first time she saw the stone coffin, she already felt a strong sense of threat.

It's just that Hu Bayi had already proposed to leave first, so she didn't say any more.

"Okay, then let's go to Wushuang first." Chen Ziyan didn't refuse, after all, his original thoughts were the same.

But as it happened, just when they were about to go down to the robbery cave again, a head popped out from below.

This sudden scene really frightened them. If it wasn't for Chen Ziyan's sharp eyesight and quick hands to stop them, Wang Kaixuan's engineering shovel would have already hit them.

When they calmed down and looked again, everyone realized that the head that suddenly popped out from the entrance of the robber's cave was the Wushuang ghost just talked about.

"Brother Wushuang, do you know what it means to scare people to death?" Wang Kaixuan couldn't help complaining after seeing it clearly.

But Wushuang ghostly ignored him, and remained silent as before.

Scanning the crowd in front of him, he stayed on Chen Ziyan for a moment, then took the bag up first, and then got out of it.

And Wushuang Ghost's next move was to make others forget to ask him why he was in the robbery cave for a moment.

After he came out, Wushuang Ghost had a rope tied to his wrist. Standing at the entrance of the robbery cave, he grabbed the rope and lifted it, and a dozen people slipped out one after another.

These people are obviously the people who followed them before, but I don't know whether they are the only ones who are trapped, or these are the only people who are trapped.

Although these people don't look like they've been hurt, their mental outlook is generally poor, and their faces are full of exhaustion.

Moreover, Chen Ziyan also found that after seeing himself and others, these people showed a hint of joy at the same time, which made him a little puzzled.

But he didn't show it, but stood there quietly, watching the Wushuang ghost take these captives out of the robbery cave one by one like this.

After the last person appeared, he got an accurate number.

Seventeen!
There were seventeen captives of Wushuang Ghost.

This number is not too many, but some are too few.

You must know that except for the few who stayed above, everyone who followed at the beginning went underground. The number of people is far more than this, and the number should at least be doubled, or even tripled.

Thinking of this, Chen Ziyan frowned slightly, probably because something he didn't want to see happened.

But at this moment, the wooden box that Wushuang Ghost put aside suddenly opened a gap from inside, and then a small and exquisite figure came out of it, and went straight to Chen Ziyan's embrace.

It was the second level of protection that Chen Ziyan had originally arranged, his spirit weasel—Xiao Xiangu.

Steadily catching the little fairy who threw herself into his arms, Chen Ziyan gently scratched her chin, and asked in a low voice the doubts in his heart: "Did you only meet so many people after you came down?"

"Squeak—" Little Fairy squinted her eyes to enjoy, and at the same time told Chen Ziyan about their experience.

After listening to Xiao Xiangu's description, while Chen Ziyan felt a little relieved, he also had new doubts.

Because the little fairy told him that the seventeen people who entered the tomb...or were trapped in the ghost tomb were the only ones in front of him, and no one else had appeared.

For some reason, Chen Ziyan suddenly thought of those people hiding in the underground passage, and he had a premonition that the reason for this unexpected change was likely to be those people.

But for the time being, he has no clue about the specific connection, so he has no way of knowing for the time being.

He then proceeded to ask some questions.

Only then did I learn that after the Wushuang Ghosts went down to the ground, they first walked in the underground passage for a while, and then came to the outer area of ​​the underground palace.

And after arriving here, they entered a mausoleum of a very ancient tomb without knowing it.

After the Wushuang ghost took care of the dummies, he arrested the people who entered the ghost tomb one by one, and then found a tomb to wait for the arrival of the master, Chen Ziyan.

But just now, the scene they were in changed again, and a hole appeared out of thin air on the top of the tomb.

At the same time as the entrance of the cave appeared, Wu Shuanggui and Xiao Xiangu felt Chen Ziyan's presence, and this led to the scene just now.
