As the candles were lit, a dim fire rose in the tomb.
"Yingzi, you just keep an eye on the candles. If the candles go out or something happens, you call us, okay?" Hu Bayi told Yingzi.
"Yeah, I understand, Brother Hu, is there anything special about this?" Yingzi nodded.
"We have a rule for tomb raiders. When opening a coffin, we light a candle in the southeast corner of the tomb. If the key goes out, it means that the tomb owner does not welcome us. We must bow three times respectfully and then return the things. Otherwise, the tomb owner will be unhappy. You have to pay attention to this."
She held the shotgun in her hand, watching the candles while paying attention to the movements of Shen Hao and the other two.
Shen Hao and the other two walked to the center of the tomb.
I saw a large coffin in front of me. It was not small in size, made of mahogany and black lacquer, and painted with golden patterns.
Although the shape and color are strange, this should be related to the customs of the Jin people.
The coffin board was very thick, and it was obvious that it was not something that poor people could afford.
Shen Hao took a closer look and found that it was a coffin made of linden mahogany. The material was solid. Although it was not of the top specification, it was already very luxurious.
"Get ready to open the coffin." Shen Hao said to Hu Bayi and the fat man beside him.
The three of them picked up the shovel, inserted it into the gap between the coffin boards, and pried it hard.
After some effort, all the coffin nails were finally pried up.
Shen Hao pushed the coffin lid open with force, revealing a tall male mummy inside.
The moisture in his body had evaporated, leaving only purple dry skin wrapped around the skeleton.
Although his facial features collapsed and his eyes and nose turned into black pits, his face was still vaguely recognizable.
He was about 40 or 50 years old, wearing a crown on his head, a red robe with gold silk embroidery and blue edges, and cloud-stepping boots on his feet, with his hands on his chest.
The tomb was well waterproofed and dry, so the body of the tomb owner was well preserved.
Yingzi took a few steps closer with curiosity and took a look inside the coffin. They were so scared that they shrank their heads and dared not look again: "Oh my god, it's so scary."
This shout made Hu Bayi and Fatty's scalps tingle.
However, since they were here and the coffin was opened, they only needed to touch the body.
So they bravely lay down in front of the coffin.
Hu Bayi bowed three times to the body of the tomb owner and recited a passage.
The general idea was that we borrowed some goods to exchange for some small money. Money is something outside of our body and cannot be taken away after death. After we take it, we will definitely use most of it for charity.
Before he finished speaking, Fatty couldn't wait to search the coffin.
Seeing this, Hu Bayi quickly shouted at him: "Be gentle, don't damage the body."
Just then, Shen Hao noticed that a sinister aura began to boil inside the body.
This was a sign of the corpse rising.
And in this sinister aura, there seemed to be a faint evil aura hidden in it.
Shen Hao seemed to sense something.
"Is this the evil in the tomb that Master said?"
"This tomb is not big, but it is also a sealed place?" Shen Hao was a little surprised.
"It seems that I should do a good deed today. Come, let me help you to transcend."
In the coffin, next to the body, there were several pieces of porcelain, which were very valuable.
However, Fatty and Hu Bayi preferred ancient jade.
Shen Hao shook his head.
Can the porcelain that can be put into the coffin be bad?
So he took out a few pieces of porcelain and put them into the storage ring.
At this time, the fat man found that the ancient corpse held a jade disk in one hand.
The color was emerald green, and it was carved into two moth shapes that looked like butterflies but were not butterflies.
And just after the fat man took off the two jade disks, the evil spirit in the body of the Jin general boiled to the extreme.
At the same time, the candle in the southeast corner suddenly shook and went out!
Yingzi had been paying careful attention to the candle. When she saw the candle go out, she immediately shouted: "Brother Hu, the candle is out!"
Yingzi's forehead was already covered with cold sweat, and Hu Bayi and the fat man were similar.
"Old Hu, didn't you say you bought the best windproof candle? What's wrong? Did you buy a fake?" The fat man said.
"This, I'll go find him when I get back. He dared to sell us fakes. I will make him pay for it!" Hu Bayi said viciously.
Although the rules of the tomb raider lieutenant are to return the items when the lights are off, kowtow a few times and leave.
However, this is their first time in the tomb, and they have spent so much effort to get these things. Now they have to put them all back. Hu Bayi and Fatty are reluctant.
Then the glutinous rice balls are not glutinous rice balls——Did you play the whole game?
"Well, could it be that the wind from outside blew out the candle?" asked the fat man.
"It's possible. How about we light it again?" said Hu Bayi.
"Okay, let's try it again. If it goes out again, we'll return some things and try again." said the fat man.
"Okay, let's do it."
Then, Hu Bayi lit the candle again.
The two of them planned to bargain with the tomb owner to see if it would work.
Sure enough, the candle that was lit again did not go out.
"OK, let's go, we should withdraw." Hu Bayi clapped his hands.
At this time, Yingzi suddenly said in a trembling voice: "Brother Hu, why is the candle flame green?"
Hearing this, the two slowly turned their heads and looked at the candle.
The green flame made people's faces turn blue. The two looked at each other and thought to themselves: "Not good"
Then, the candle suddenly went out silently.
So they both looked at Shen Hao, "Master Shen, what do you think we should do in this situation?"
Shen Hao had been standing aside, watching this classic scene like a play.
"What should we do? Of course, we should do what we should do. We have taken all the things. Are you willing to put them back?" Shen Hao asked.
"Of course not!" Fatty said immediately.
"Well, don't worry, I'm here. It's just a small dumpling. It can't cause any trouble!" Shen Hao said confidently.
Hu Bayi and the other two were infected by Shen Hao's confidence and felt much better.
While the tomb owner hadn't risen yet, Hu Bayi planned to retreat quickly, but before he took two steps, a strong wind came from behind.
Hu Bayi and the others quickly lay down on the spot to avoid it.
It turned out that the tomb owner in the coffin rose up and threw the coffin board over.
It directly blocked the door of the tomb.
Even a large area of the tomb wall was cracked.
"Fuck, so fierce?"
"Master Shen, help me~, please help quickly, or we'll be finished." Hu Bayi shouted to Shen Hao.
