Mr. Thaumaturgy

Chapter 191 Support
Fortunately, this one fell to nothing, and I didn't get hit.

After observation, I understood in my heart that this formation is a chess formation, there are only three moving pieces on our side, and there are many moving pieces in front.

"Brother Ding retreats." Ping Jiang said to me.

Hearing what Ping Jiang said, I took a step back.

Just as I retreated, something fell directly from the top of my head and hit the ground hard, directly smashing a hole in the ground.

"Junior Brother Ding, you can rest now." Ping Jiang said to me, and then pointed to a place for me to come and sit down.

I glanced ahead. The current situation was not good for us. It was all up to Ping Jiang to direct Mu Xue and Shou Hou to move forward. The more I looked at it, the more I felt a little shocked.

I thought this was a chessboard that was bound to lose because there were only two chess pieces, but I didn’t expect that Ping Jiang’s chess skills were quite good and he quickly fought his way through.

"Behead the general." Ping Jiang said coldly.

Mu Xue stepped forward and kicked the general to the ground.

This general is a stone sculpture. After being kicked by Mu Xue, the sound of "click, click" sounded in his ears. Immediately afterwards, the iron chain on the top of his head was pulled, and the nine coffins fell slowly. When they fell to the ground, they were still shaking. There was a layer of dust.

"Don't look over there to prevent fraud." Ping Jiang said with his head turned.

Looking eagerly at the nine coffins in front of him, he followed the previous routine and tried it with stones. He was afraid that there were some mechanisms inside the coffins. No matter how skilled he was, he was afraid of kitchen knives. If he could hide some flying arrows, he would be able to dodge them. , it will definitely be injured.

When the stone fell, the coffin did not respond, and all nine coffins were tried.

Seeing that there was no response, Ping Jiang suggested that he take the lead to try first, and if danger occurs, quickly pull him over with a rope.

I tied the rope around Ping Jiang's waist, and if there was any danger, I could just pull it over with all my strength.

Ping Jiang walked up to the nine coffins, tested each coffin in turn, and looked at us only after no danger was encountered.

I touched the coffin lid, and the coffin lid was icy cold, like ice cubes, giving people a very cold feeling.

I originally thought it was caused by the strong Yin Qi, but Ping Jiang said it was not the case. The Yin Qi here is not very strong, and the Yin Qi here was not as strong as before when there were weird bugs on the ground.
"Senior Brother Ping Jiang, do you want to open the coffin to have a look?" I asked softly.

"Let me give it a try." Muxue said.

While talking, Muxue took out two small bottles, opened the bottle caps, pointed at the nine coffins and said, "Hey."

Two ghosts appeared, and under Mu Xue's instruction, the two ghosts flew towards the nearest coffin.

I asked Muxue why I hadn’t called the two Yin ghosts here to test them before. Muxue’s explanation was very simple. The reason was that the Yin energy in the previous place was too strong, and I was afraid that there would be other Yin ghosts hiding around. If they were released, I would directly Being swallowed by other ghosts was a huge loss for him.

I said it was so, and the two ghosts pushed the nine coffins away with Yin Qi. After the coffin lids were pushed away, the two ghosts returned to Mu Xue's side.

After whispering in Mu Xue's ear, she immediately backed out.

"What did you say?" I asked.

"The two of them said that the eight coffins are all empty, and only one coffin has someone lying in it." Mu Xue said.

A few of us walked over, and the Yin Gui carefully inspected the place several times. It was just some special coffins, and there was no mechanism other than that.

There are nine coffins, the first four coffins are empty, the back four coffins are also empty, and only the middle coffin is occupied.

When we came to the coffin in the middle, I was a little stunned. Lying in the middle was a woman. This woman was wearing red clothes, similar to ancient wedding clothes.

The most important thing is that this woman didn't rot at all, as if she was a living person sleeping in a coffin.

He put his hands on his chest, closed his eyes tightly, and his eyelashes were quite long.

"Holding the grass, it's amazing." The thin monkey raised his hand as he said, wanting to touch the woman.

"Don't move." Ping Jiang said coldly.

"Shouhou, without my order, you'd better be more honest with your hands and feet, and check if there is any danger moving." Ping Jiang said seriously.

Facing Ping Jiang's serious face, the thin monkey sighed, took two steps back and let Ping Jiang do it.

Ping Jiang stared at the thin monkey, squatted down and checked it again, and after confirming that there was no problem, he clicked his tongue twice.

"This woman looked at the clothes she was wearing, and sold them in antique shops. They were worth a lot of money. The most important thing is that this woman has been dead for some years. It's a miracle that they haven't rotted yet." I said softly Said.

"It's really amazing, but what can keep a woman from rotting should be supported by something." Ping Jiang said.

While talking, Ping Jiang raised his hand, touched the woman's face, frowned slightly and said, "This woman's face is really cool."

I tried it out of curiosity, not to mention, it was like touching an ice cube, and the woman's hand was also very cold.

Eight of the nine coffins were empty. Logically speaking, with this coffin layout, men should be buried. After all, it was made according to the Kowloon layout.

Buried in women, it doesn't fit this pattern at all.

"In the beginning, there should be other people, and they were still alive, not the empty coffin we saw." Mu Xue said suddenly.

"But we didn't see anyone lying in the coffin." Said the thin monkey with his hands outstretched

There was a trace of doubt on my face, this place is indeed an empty coffin.

"Come and see." Mu Xue said.

While speaking, she bent down and took out a bottle of water from the back of her backpack, and the water was gently shaking in it.

Gradually, a lying figure appeared inside the coffin.

Mu Xue pointed at the other coffins and started to test, every coffin would have this kind of figure.

"How could this be?" asked the thin monkey.

"I have read in the book that there was a way of burying a living coffin in ancient times. With some formations, the body of the main coffin could not rot. The corpses are completely absorbed, so that the body will gradually disappear, and now it seems that these corpses are directly absorbed and disappear."

As for why the clothes disappeared, Ping Jiang said that these people had no clothes on at all.

This living burial method is very cruel. Judging from the postures of the figures in the coffin, these people were in great pain before they died.
