A black fire aura appeared on Jin An's body to guard against sneak attacks in the coffin.
Then he raised his palm and clapped it.
boom!
The sarcophagus lid, which weighed hundreds of kilograms for ordinary people, was easily blown away on the spot, and the heavy sarcophagus lid fell heavily to the ground.
The person lying in the coffin is finally revealed.
"Huh?" Jin An was surprised.
The old Taoist priest standing in the distance asked curiously: "What's wrong?"
Jin An replied: "He is a dead person, not a living person."
dead?
How can a dead person who has been dead for thousands of years smell like blood?
The old Taoist priest and Xi Jian came over in surprise. When he carefully took a look at the dead person in the sarcophagus, he felt that he had misunderstood. The dead person in Jin An's mouth refers to the person who had just died. The old Taoist priest subconsciously misunderstood this. The dead people were originally buried in the underground palace.
The dead man died face down in the sarcophagus. Jin An originally wanted to reach out and turn the body over to see if the dead man's identity was the group of people who followed Xiao Ling Wang.
"Little brother, please don't touch the body yet. Look at the messy clothes on his back. It seems like there is something in the clothes?" the old Taoist priest reminded.
Jin An took a closer look and saw that the dead man's clothes were really strange. There was a protrusion on the back, especially the back collar. The clothes were messy. It looked like the person had been stripped of his clothes and then put back on randomly?
How this person died can be seen by opening the clothes on his back.
Jin An lifted up the clothes from the back of the corpse on the spot, and the old Taoist priest's eyes widened when he saw it.
There was actually a black sarcoma on the dead man's back. This black sarcoma seemed to have broken out from under the corpse's skin. The skin on his back was torn and bleeding.
Judging from the bright redness of the blood, it seemed that the man had just died and the blood had not completely solidified.
With this doubt.
Jin An reached out and touched the body.
"Little brother, be careful!" The old Taoist priest warned Jin An nervously when he saw that Jin An was so brave and dared to touch the corpse of a dead person without knowing anything about the situation.
Jin An pressed his palms towards the old Taoist priest to show that he knew the importance, then reached into the coffin and touched the skin of the corpse.
"It's still warm and the body is not stiff yet. This person must have died not long ago." Jin An said in surprise.
After saying that, he curiously turned the body over to see who the person who died in the sarcophagus was.
Well!
When he turned the body over and saw the front, Jin An was caught off guard and was frightened. The man's death method became more and more weird. Not only did he have slowly crawling sarcomas on his back after death, but also he was frightened. There was still a weird smile on his face.
This thing is actually a smiling face!
Jin An unexpectedly saw a corpse with a smiling face in the coffin, and Jin An didn't even curse. He was already brave enough.
If it weren't for the fact that the smiling corpse's eyes were closed and it was 100% sure that the man was dead, Jin An would have thought that this thing was trying to trick the corpse into the coffin and drag him into trouble.
"It is better to listen to ghosts cry than to listen to ghosts laugh. People are male evil, and ghosts are female evil. Little brothers, we should be lucky. Although the laughing corpse is cruel, fortunately, the person who died in the coffin was a man, not a woman. If another one comes, Smiling Corpse, here comes another woman's corpse, even if the person who just died is not full of hair, he will turn into a vicious corpse." The old Taoist priest said with a look of joy after being frightened by the Smiling Corpse.
Although this thing didn't fake a corpse for the time being, it was quite despicable to keep looking at the dead man smiling. Jin An put the dead man back in his original position and let him continue to face down, so that he didn't have to look at that scary and weird smile all the time. .
However, Jin An still recognized that this strange smiling corpse was not the person next to Xiao Ling Wang. He entered the Cave Paradise alone. In the morning, he exchanged information with him on how to hunt wild beasts. Unexpectedly, not long after this, he became a man in the underground palace. The first person to die.
Why.
People are subject to life and death, things are impermanent, and life is the most impermanent.
Next, the three of them gathered around the sarcophagus and began to study the pieces of black flesh on the dead man's back.
"Don't mention it, these black sarcomas look like snake scales. The first thing I thought of was the ichthyosis of the Lord of Teng Kingdom... But why do I feel that, just after a while, this thing It seems like you have grown a bit after drinking human blood?" Jin An said in surprise, and then asked the old Taoist priest and sharpening the sword, was it his imagination?
The old Taoist priest had a solemn look on his face: "Little brother, this sarcoma is not a strange disease. It seems to be Polygonum multiflorum, one of the five immortal medicines in Alchemy."
"Look at this black sarcoma. It is shiny and hard in shape. There are several wood grain-like textures on the surface. No matter how you look at it, it looks like Polygonum multiflorum, a precious Chinese medicine."
This time even Chi Jian, who was dull and silent, gave a rare nod, which meant that he also believed that the black flesh bumps on the back of the smiling corpse were Polygonum multiflorum.
Jin An looked at the old Taoist priest in confusion: "Five magic medicines of alchemy? Polygonum multiflorum?"
The old Taoist priest explained in detail: "In the ancient times, people used alchemy to practice elixirs of life. They used lead and mercury to refine the elixir of life for emperors, and there were also elixirs of life that were naturally raised by the earth. We don't talk about lead and mercury today. It is only said that the latter’s naturally cultivated elixirs of immortality are Ganoderma lucidum, Poria cocos, Polygonatum odoratum, Polygonum multiflorum, and ginseng, and are known as the five elixirs of longevity in Fangshu. They have always been the elixir of health and longevity in the homes of emperors of all dynasties.”
"Little brothers, you must have heard the following folk stories. It is said that Polygonatum can turn into a handsome scholar, Polygonum multiflorum and Poria can turn into a beautiful woman, and Ginseng can turn into a white and fat child. Among them, Ganoderma lucidum is the rarest in quantity. I’m talking about Tai Sui. These five elixirs all have one characteristic, that is, the longer they grow, the more human-like they are. They are said to have spirituality. As the fire lasts longer and the practice lasts longer, they grow more human-like.”
When the old Taoist said this, Jin An looked surprised. Don't tell me, there is indeed such a thing. Folks have always dug up Polygonum multiflorum and Ganoderma lucidum that look like humans.
It is also said that ginseng is a mountain spirit and has spirituality. The first thing ginseng pickers do when they find ginseng is to tie it with a red rope to tie the ginseng to prevent it from escaping at night.
At this time, Jin An looked at the black flesh bumps on the back of the smiling corpse. The more he looked at it, the more it looked like Polygonum multiflorum. Then another question came, how could Polygonum multiflorum grow on this man's back?
Was it brought in from outside?
Or is it a newly grown one that entered the underground palace?
Jin An thought deeply and said: "When this man came to me to exchange information in the morning, I remember that I didn't notice anything strange about him at that time. The Polygonum multiflorum probably grew out from under the skin of his back after entering the underground palace."
The old Taoist priest looked surprised and said, "That's strange. How come Polygonum multiflorum grows on a human body?"
"Could it be that he was planted on his body, and he felt that someone was trying to harm him, so he resisted desperately, left the team alone with a seriously injured body, hid in the morgue tower, and finally died of serious injuries and was suffocated in the sarcophagus?"
"As for why he looked like a corpse with a smiling face after death, maybe it has something to do with the Polygonum multiflorum growing on his back. For example, he died of some kind of poison? This Polygonum multiflorum is highly poisonous?"
It was Jin An who was brave enough to examine the corpse with a scary smile to find out what the real cause of death was. If it were an ordinary person, he would probably feel unlucky even to see a dead person, let alone take the initiative to touch the corpse.
This inspection did reveal several injuries on the body, but these injuries were not serious enough to cause fatal injuries.
Jin An frowned.
This smiling corpse died in a weird way, and nothing could be left behind anyway.
Simply burn it on fire.
Poof, the Kunwu knife stabbed into the corpse. The poisonous black flames of the black mountain's inner energy flowed along the meridians of the palm and poured into the red blade. In an instant, the Kunwu knife raised black flames, crackling and burning the corpse.
When the black flame swallowed up the smiling corpse and burned the lump-like Polygonum multiflorum on the back of the corpse, something strange happened!
The lump-like Polygonum multiflorum expanded rapidly and became shiny. On the other hand, the corpse's flesh and blood was rapidly losing, and it shriveled up at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into a mummy.
But the Polygonum multiflorum grew bigger and bigger, and Yin Qi rushed up.
There is indeed something wrong with the Polygonum multiflorum in this underground palace.
"Little brother, get away!" the old Taoist priest exclaimed.
But it's too late.
The fetus Polygonum multiflorum growing on the back of the Smiling Corpse grew rapidly and expanded to its limit before exploding into a cloud of poisonous gas that swallowed up Jin An who was just around the corner.
Boom!
Jin An's body erupted with fire and poisonous internal energy, sweeping away the poisonous energy and burning it immediately.
Avenue induction.
One hundred virtues.
