Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

The design requirements for the hanging coffin are very high.

Lin Ran knew that this kind of hanging coffin could not be touched easily because a stabilizing device would be designed near the hanging coffin.

This stabilizing device usually resembles an hourglass, containing mercury and connected to an iron chain.

If the chain tilts, the device will be activated and trigger the mechanism.

As for what kind of mechanism it is, it depends on the design of the tomb owner.

It is impossible for ordinary people to spend a lot of money to build a hanging coffin. Along the way, you can also find that the identity of the tomb owner is unusual.

Lin Ran reminded Wang Jinpeng and the others that it was actually easy to crack this mechanism, as long as they paid attention to the connection of the iron chain.

However, Wang Jinpeng suddenly said "ah".

His courage could frighten others, and others became alert.

Lin Ran looked in the direction of his searchlight. Good guy, I hadn't noticed it before.

It turns out that except for the hanging coffins, there are mummies everywhere in the tomb.

In the desert, mummies are relatively common. It is not easy to become a mummy. It requires a dry environment and relatively high temperature so that the body structure will not be destroyed by scavengers.

Lin Ran frowned, he wanted to take a look at the situation.

Said to Guan Yun: "You cover me."

Guan Yun nodded and followed Lin Ran, approaching the mummy closest to them.

Guan Yun had no bullets in his gun at this time. Since he followed Lin Ran, he had used the gun so many times that the ammunition he had reserved had been used up. There is no way to replenish this kind of thing in the market, and now he can only You can take one step at a time.

He instead took out a military dagger and held it in his hand. As long as it wasn't the huge monster outside, he could deal with it.

Lin Ran came to a mummy, squatted down, put on his gloves, and touched the surface.

It is indeed very dry, and you can still smell a faint fishy smell.

This mummy was the same as the one next to it. The body was dark brown, the eye sockets were sunken, and the mouth was slightly open. It looked very painful.

This kind of expression can only be seen by people who die of exposure to the desert environment in no man's land.

However, Lin Ran felt something was wrong, because although the temperature inside the tomb was relatively high, it was still relatively humid. How could a mummy appear?

There was also an expression with the mouth slightly open, as if he had been greatly frightened.

Lin Ran saw no wounds on their bodies. Either they were trapped here and died of dehydration, or they were frightened to death rather than dying from external force.

Check the people's clothes again.

The people in front of them were obviously modern people. They were wearing clothes that were somewhat similar to Zhou Tian's night clothes. All the buttons in front of the clothes were unbuttoned, as if it had been very hot before.

But looking at the mummies in the other corner, the clothes some of them were wearing had turned black, but it could still be seen that they were the clothes of ancient people.

These people are lying in various directions in the ancient tombs, and they come from different eras.

Just thinking about this makes me shudder.

Wang Jinpeng reminded at that time: "Brother Lin, we still don't know where that sound came from!"

He thought there would be monsters hiding here.

Lin Ran stood up and said in a low tone: "They may not have died here, but were thrown here after death."

"What? How is this possible?" Liu Jingfeng's eyes widened, everything was so incredible.

The tomb robbers were killed in other places, and then the bodies were moved here. It was an unimaginable bad taste.

"The tomb of a tomb robber?" Lin Ran murmured to himself.

There must be some kind of intelligent creature living in this ancient tomb. He would pile up the corpses of all the tomb robbers here to warn those who come after him.

Originally, Lin Ran was an absolute materialist, but after so many things, he began to have a sense of awe towards ghosts and gods, and he had to be wary of some taboos.

After Wang Jinpeng heard this, he quickly scanned the surrounding mummies, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's wrong?" Huang Hao asked curiously when he saw Wang Jinpeng's strange behavior.

"I didn't see the body of the woman just now. She should still be alive, right?" Wang Jinpeng pretended to smile casually.

On the bright side, Xu Jieyun's body was not found among these corpses, which meant that she might still be alive.

Lin Ran didn't know the other people in the archaeological team, but judging from the clothes of these people, there should be no archaeological team members.

Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the voice that had suddenly disappeared appeared again.

"Uh..."

The voice was very close now, erratic.

Lin Ran was still thinking about what Wang Jinpeng had just said, when he suddenly heard this voice and couldn't help but feel numb.

"Uh.."

When the sound sounded again, Guan Yun, Wang Jinpeng and Xu Ning stood up at the same time and looked towards the hanging coffin.

Because they all felt that the sound came from the direction of the hanging coffin.

But no one dared to act rashly. The hanging coffin was obviously still hanging and had obviously not been touched.

And the sound coming from the hanging coffin was not a corpse scam, but something like that.

"Zongzi?" Wang Jinpeng picked up the shovel, and the other two people also picked up their own tools.

Liu Jingfeng was the most prepared. With his previous experience, he now brought a jar of glutinous rice with him every time. He also took it out and stood among the four of them.

Guan Yun was very doubtful about whether this thing would work, but he couldn't care about Liu Jingfeng now.

Several people looked at each other and slowly approached the coffin.

The sound came either from the coffin or from behind the coffin.

If it was inside the coffin, they wouldn't be stupid enough to open it directly, but it was still necessary to investigate what the sound was.

Because it may not be a supernatural phenomenon, it may also be a creature like Wong Tai Sin. If this is the case, it will make them feel relieved and no longer need to worry.

Lin Ran felt that this possibility was very small, and he silently picked up the short knife.

The mummies here already show that this ancient tomb is definitely not simple.

Guan Yun and his party were quite courageous, especially Xu Ning. After getting the Tang Dao, he looked very domineering.

The four of them stood in front of the coffin.

After getting closer, the subtle voice appeared again.

Only then did they realize that the sound was not coming from the coffin, but from behind the coffin.

Liu Jingfeng reminded: "Don't touch the chains."

Several people nodded and rushed towards the back of the coffin.

The moment they rushed over, the chains began to shake.

Wang Jinpeng raised his head in surprise, then looked at Liu Jingfeng and others innocently, and waved his hand to indicate that he was not the one who touched them.

Apparently it wasn't anyone else, but the chain moved on its own.
