While others rob tombs and search for treasures, you practice poison cultivation to achieve immortal

Chapter 13: Promotion and wealth, python entangles corpse
"Open the coffin!"

At this time, Shirley, Yang, Hu Bayi, Wang Pangzi and others were already discussing how to open the coffin.

The liquid seeping out of the blood coffin still made the three people a little worried.

Gu Bai was not very scared. He reached out and used his paratrooper knife to catch some red liquid and sniffed it under his nose.

“It smells like Chinese medicine.”

Shirley Yang and Hu Bayi also came forward to smell it.

It was quickly confirmed that it was most likely the preservative liquid inside the coffin.

Speaking of this, Hu Bayi slapped his thigh and suddenly remembered something.

"It seems that this coffin must be the companion tomb of King Xian!"

"King Xian is superstitious about witchcraft, and many of his subordinates are also keen on seeking immortality and asking for the truth."

"Just now I thought about it, those two couple banyan trees may not be natural, but artificially planted."

"Those two big trees are the outer shell of this coffin."

"There should have been some famous acupuncture points on it."

"The tomb in this tree can absorb the essence of heaven and earth. The owner of the tomb is aiming to ascend to heaven."

Fatty Wang curled his lips and said, "Who cares if he ascends to heaven or not? We just need to open the coffin and find the gold. If the coffin is opened, we will make a fortune. Anyway, it is all the ill-gotten gains of the ruling class."

The fat man's words really suit Gu Bai's taste.

Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang no longer hesitated and got ready immediately.

It was already bright in the sky, and opening the coffin to search for gold was somewhat in conflict with the ancestral precept that the tomb-raiding captain should not search for gold until the lights were out and the roosters crowed.

However, Gu Bai's words dispelled Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi's concerns.

"You can just guide me on any questions regarding technique and equipment."

"I'll take care of the specific operations."

"Anyway, I'm not a tomb raider, so I won't go against our ancestors' teachings if I do it."

Gu Bai's words made Lao Hu and Fatty Wang nod their heads repeatedly, while Shirley Yang rolled her eyes.

"Okay, Master Gu, you are still smart."

Fatty Wang immediately took out the Yin-Exploring Claw and Yin-Yang Mirror from his equipment.

Gu Bai knew about the Yin-Exploring Claw, which was the black iron hook used by tomb-raiders.

This thing is used for delicate tasks like prying open the seams of coffins and hooking the clothes of the dead.

Gu Bai had never seen the Yin-Yang Mirror before.

It is said that this thing is an old item that Lao Hu and Fatty Wang specially collected from Panjiayuan.

The date can be traced back to the Tang Dynasty.

The shape is very strange, it is a triangular bronze mirror.

The three sides symbolize heaven, earth and man.

The front and back sides are divided into yin and yang.

The front is smooth, with four small characters in seal script on the north side, "升冠发财".

"This thing is specially used when opening the coffin during the day."

"Hang it up with a red rope, with the sunny side facing the inside of the coffin."

"It is said that it is used to prevent unclean and dark energy from affecting the Samadhi True Fire of the living."

Gu Bai nodded and took the Yin-Yang Mirror.

Gu Bai collected his mind, hung up the Yin-Yang Mirror with a red rope, and concentrated on using the Yin-Probing Claw to walk around the gap around the jade coffin.

It turned out that this jade coffin actually had no coffin nails.

"It's not a lid, it's a drawer."

Gu Bai said in a deep voice.

Several onlookers nearby immediately exclaimed in amazement.

"Chief of Staff Yang, come and give me a hand. Let's take out the lid of the jade coffin."

Gu Bai called out to Shirley Yang.

Shirley Yang immediately walked over to Gu Bai.

At this moment, a ray of sunlight shone through the gap in the woods and shone on the jade coffin.

A tall figure appeared inside the jade coffin.

Shirley Yang, Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang all gasped.

There is a corpse in the jade coffin!
The body looked particularly strange. The upper body looked tall and large, barely normal.

The lower body is extremely wide and the legs are not visible.

Gu Bai and Shirley Yang grabbed a layer of jade plate on the surface of the jade coffin with their hands and then pulled it back.

An extremely bloody smell rushed out from the jade coffin.

At the same time, the triangular Yin-Yang mirror shone on the sunny side of the jade coffin, and the light dimmed.

A loud noise came from the sky.

The four people, who were already highly nervous, were all startled when they heard the voice.

Gu Bai felt a chill rushing from his tailbone directly to his forehead.

The hairs all over his body stood on end.

The sound came from the sky.

"A bolt from the blue?" Gu Bai said through gritted teeth.

Almost in an instant, the sky, which originally had the rising sun visible, was covered with dark clouds.

The clouds were very low, and the bottom was almost the same color as the bottom of a pot.

There seems to be an extremely tall mountain above, I don’t know how high it is.

You can also see rolling clouds inside.

The thunder just now came from the dark clouds.

Fatty Wang, who has always been greedy for money, felt a little guilty when he saw the dark clouds in the sky.

"Master Gu, Lao Hu, Chief of Staff Yang? Did we provoke something? Should we take shelter from the attack for a while?"

Before Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang could reply, Gu Bai gritted his teeth and said, "Fatty, don't be a coward. Who cares about the monsters and demons? Just do it and it's done."

Gu Bai's words made Fatty Wang's heart surge. He gritted his teeth and said, "Master Gu is right. Let's just do it."

Then Gu Bai pulled out the half-open jade plate completely.

The coffin fluid inside was extremely thick and blood-like flowed out.

Gu Bai kept moving his hands, asking Shirley Yang to step back slightly, then he stretched out his claws and fished inside the coffin.

Inside the blood-red liquid, a heavy object was immediately scooped up.

As Gu Bai exerted force with the claws on his hand, this thing slowly floated to the surface.

He is actually a person!

A person whose appearance is wrapped in a thin film.

Hu Bayi said, "This is a worm crystal. It was put on the outside of the gold thread jade suit in the tombs of the Han Dynasty to preserve the corpses."

Gu Bai nodded, "It seems to be the tomb of King Xian. The time is right!"

After saying that, he directly cut Zhi Jing with his paratrooper knife.

The corpse wrapped in the crystal was completely exposed.

The corpse was that of an old man whose eyebrows, hair and beard were all white.

The old man is tall and quite fat. I don’t know whether he was soaked in antiseptic fluid or whether he was already fat.

He was completely naked.

The exposed skin still looks very elastic, just like a living person.

Even because of the bright red embalming fluid, there is still a bit of blood.

Gu Bai hooked the old man's body with his genital claws and pulled him out with force.

It didn't even move.

Although the old man is quite fat, Gu Bai is much stronger than most people.

It was a bit abnormal. Gu Bai felt as if something was pulling at the bottom of the corpse.

At this moment, Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang no longer cared about touching the golden ancestral training, and started directly.

He hooked the corpse with a mountaineering pick and helped Gu Bai pull it out.

Soon most of the old man's body was torn out.

Inside the blood-red coffin fluid, something terrifying was revealed.

Hu Bayi and Wang Fatty, who were helping, were so scared that they almost let go. After they came to their senses, they held on tightly to the mountaineering pickaxe again.

It turned out that there was a blood-red skinned python underneath the old man's body.
