Chapter 615: Monster or Sage?

Of course, Dong Yanxia’s attitude is one aspect, but more importantly it is Dong Zhuohua’s own performance.

You should know that the last person who discovered that there was only one person in the coffin so quickly was Zhang Qiling in the original plot.

Although this alone does not prove anything and Dong Zhuohua cannot be compared with Zhang Qiling, it is enough to show that she is a capable person.

After all, if you don't have some real skills, you can't see the clues so quickly. The other guys around are the best reference.

Dong Zhuohua's words silenced the whispers around them, and everyone subconsciously looked inside the coffin.

But all that could be seen was a group of extremely twisted corpses, as if they had been washed in a washing machine. The remaining turbid black water obstructed the vision, so it looked like many corpses twisted into a ball.

To be honest, they really couldn't tell that there was only one corpse in the coffin.

However, no one rashly refuted it. Just like Chen Ziyan would refer to Dong Yanxia's attitude, these guys also saw this.

They may have various shortcomings, but their ability to judge the situation is definitely above average.

Dong Zhuohua was able to make Dong Yanxia obey her, so no matter what she relied on, it showed that she was a capable person, and that was enough for them.

In real life, many things don’t necessarily require a reason.

It is for this reason that even though Dong Zhuohua’s statement seemed a bit absurd to these guys, no one refuted it. After all, who can guarantee that it is not true?
Dong Zhuohua ignored the reactions of others. She pointed at the heads connected to the corpses and said, "Look carefully at those heads. Are there obvious differences?"

Although there is still some black water remaining on the body at this moment, a lot of it has already flowed away, so if you concentrate, you can see more details.

So when everyone looked in the direction she pointed, they discovered that the heads on the corpses were indeed very different.

It's just that I didn't notice it before, so I didn't realize it.

There were a total of six heads on the corpse in the coffin, but except for the largest one with clear facial features, the faces of the other five heads were blank.

It can even be said that these heads do not even have basic outlines, and look more like masses of tumors. If they appeared on other parts of the corpse, no one would consider them as heads.

After realizing this, the others finally understood what Dong Zhuohua meant. If there was only a head in the coffin, then perhaps there really was only one body in it.

A deformed corpse!

"What about these hands?" someone raised a question.

The extra head could be explained by a tumor, but the outstretched arms in front of them could not be explained. They could clearly tell that these were real arms.

It is common knowledge that a person has only one pair of hands.

"Could it have been connected during the burial?"

"Some special ritual?"

"It's really possible."

For a moment, the issue about arms triggered a new round of discussion among the public.

"There is another possibility, that is, this corpse was a child with congenital deformity." Just when everyone was discussing it in full swing, Chen Ziyan, who had been silent, suddenly said.

After listening for a while, he realized that if he didn't guide them, these people would not easily think of this. But he could understand it, after all, who could have thought that someone would have so many arms.

Chen Ziyan's words instantly attracted everyone's attention.

"My goodness, is that still a human? It's just a bug!" A guy complained subconsciously.

A man with twelve arms can no longer be described as a deformity; it is no exaggeration to say that he is a monster.

"Master Chen, if they are really born with severe deformities, then these children will probably be killed at birth. How could they have the chance to grow up to this age?" Dong Yanxia asked with a frown.

This tomb is at least several hundred years old. In that relatively ignorant era, ordinary deformed children were difficult to accept, let alone such an outrageous existence.

"Nothing is absolute. What if someone wants a deformed child like this?" This sentence was not said by Chen Ziyan, but by Dong Zhuohua who had been observing the corpse.

As soon as she said this, not only the other guys, but even Chen Ziyan couldn't help but look over.

Because of Dong Zhuohua's words, Chen Ziyan vaguely realized that this person might know some secrets about King Wannu.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have had such an idea.

However, Chen Ziyan did not point this out, but waited quietly because someone else asked the question for him.

I heard a waiter ask, "Sister Dong, who would want such a deformed child?"

"Strictly speaking, these abnormalities, with double pupils in the eyes, cheeks behind the ears, and arms that go below the knees, can all be considered deformities, but in ancient times they were signs of saints and sages. So who stipulated that this corpse would be considered a monster when it was alive?" Dong Zhuohua asked calmly.

After hearing her words, everyone, including Chen Ziyan, couldn't help but re-examine the body in the coffin and simulate the other person's image when he was alive in their minds.

When a tall image with six heads and twelve arms appeared in his mind, Chen Ziyan had to admit that what Dong Zhuohua said made sense.

Such an existence, let alone in ancient times, even in modern times with advanced technology, will only have two completely opposite results.

Either they were regarded as monsters or as saints. Judging from the size of the corpse, it was obvious that this one was lucky enough to receive the latter treatment.

However, this explanation could not completely dispel the doubts in Chen Ziyan's heart.

Because for some things, the first impression is very important, just like his friends would think of the word "monster" first. If there was no corresponding preparation, the ancient people would not regard this deformed child as a saint.

You should know that the image of King Wannu has not been spread, and there is no similar existence in ancient Chinese mythology.

Perhaps thinking of this, Dong Zhuohua gave an explanation before anyone else asked, "I once accidentally got some books that recorded the ancient Dongxia Kingdom. One of the gods they believed in was of a similar image."

There is no need for more evidence. After hearing what Dong Zhuohua said, Chen Ziyan can basically conclude that this person must know the existence of King Wannu.

The reason is very simple, that is, she used the term "Ancient Kingdom of Dongxia".

Dongxia Kingdom and the Ancient Dongxia Kingdom sound similar, but to those who know the inside story, they are two completely different things.

Coupled with the similar image, who else could it be other than the King of Ten Thousand Slaves?

At this moment, Chen Ziyan unexpectedly discovered that Dong Zhuohua actually looked at him meaningfully.

This glance made him realize that Dong Zhuohua most likely said this on purpose, otherwise she could have just said Dongxia Kingdom. After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, the two are the same thing.
