Tomb Raider

Chapter 106 Corpse (3)
But Liu Qi's next words surprised me.He stared fixedly at the back of his body and suddenly raised his head and said, "This is not the real owner of the palace!"

"Not the real master?" I exclaimed, damn it, this thing is getting more and more messy.

Then who will be doing it on this high platform?Don't tell me this is a civet cat for the prince!

Liu Qi rushed to us and beckoned us to go over. □□Seeing this, he supported me and walked over, only then did I clearly see the appearance of the corpse.

The clothes on the body are similar to those of the standing people in the four murals we saw, but the clothes have been ruined by time, but when you look closely, it is not difficult to find that there is a fuzzy phoenix pattern on the front of the clothes.

My heart felt cold, and I took a deep breath, but I was coughed up by the vomit-inducing mucus at the entrance of the hall. □□Seeing this, he patted me on the back twice, he was like my personal servant girl right now.

Fortunately, the three of them didn't notice the change in my expression. I guess they all know about the phoenix pattern.Perhaps their thinking is the same as mine, they all want to deliberately avoid talking about this pattern, thus forming such a situation where they have their own concerns.

From the phoenix in the coffin in the second tomb, to the four murals, and then to the six pillars in the hall of the palace, the most obvious is the palace's obvious name.If they didn't notice this abnormality, I guess they should have died a hundred times because of their nerves.

But seeing that they didn't say anything, it's hard for me to talk about this matter.

The three of Liu Qi were watching intently, and all of them had solemn expressions on their faces.I also leaned over when I saw this, and finally knew why they did this.

The clothes on the back of the corpse had been completely decomposed, and what was exposed was the wrinkled and disfigured skin.In other words, the corpse had been air-dried into a mummy, and there was a clear gap at the waist.

Involuntarily, my head buzzed, this could not be the legendary cut in half!
It's horrible, how could this kind of death penalty happen to this person.I once heard someone say that the main organs of a person are in the upper body. After being cut in half, the executioner will not die immediately, but will suffer pain that is worse than death.Because the organs of the upper body were still functioning at this moment, he could only watch his lower body separate from himself, and then his upper body crawled painfully on the ground until he died completely.

Sometimes I think that this punishment should be completely harmonious. This kind of pain is no less cruel than creating the pattern of "four ghosts carrying the coffin".But thinking about it again, if someone can be killed by this punishment, the crime must be very serious.

And if it is the owner of this palace, others will definitely not carry his (her) body here and deal with it in such a weird way.

No wonder Liu Qi said that the corpse was not the owner of the palace.

I looked outside and said, "Could it be that the owner of this place is very jealous and put his body here as a gatekeeper?"

□□At this time, I didn’t have the usual chattering momentum. Instead, I thought for a while and said: "There is some truth in what I said, but I really don't know the identity of this person!"

In a trance, I suddenly felt a little weird.It seems that every time something unexpected happened, I would guess first, and then the three of them suddenly realized and nodded in agreement.

It is also possible that the three of them have already thought of the answer to the question, and they just said it to me to save face.

I thought to myself, it seems that I shouldn't be so foolish in the future, the three of them are professional tomb robbers, how can I, a half-baked man, compare with them!
Sure enough, as I thought, Liu Qi then began to speculate: "If this corpse is placed here to confuse the minds of future generations, then there is only one person who is the most suitable candidate now!"

The three of us cast our eyes on Liu Qi at the same time. He took a look at me at this time, but he took a deep breath when he saw that I didn't think about it, and said, "I feel that this corpse is the real Zhao Gao!"
