The Fourth Master was so angry that he sat down on the coffin and rested.

When I saw this picture, I just thought it was funny.

You, Chen Yulin, are a cunning old man. You tricked a few of our Liu family into coming here to suffer. Now you have asked us to pluck out your ancestral graves. Let’s see if you dare to do it next time, you piece of shit.

I followed suit, twisted my butt and sat on it directly.

"Hey hey hey, hey hey."

Liu Ruxiang rolled her eyes at me: "Have you done enough? Let's open the coffin quickly."

I smiled, and then I felt something was wrong...

He looked down suddenly, and then wiped the mud on the stone coffin lid with his sleeve.

I saw that under the surface of the yellow mud that was almost forming a shell, the stone coffin was actually engraved with obscure and difficult-to-understand ancient Zhuang folk characters!

I immediately thought of the cave at the end of the Liu family's ancestral land in Longming Mountain. There was also a huge white marble coffin in the water, with many Master's scriptures engraved on it in ancient Zhuang dialect.

The Fourth Master breathed out: "I see you're not stupid, that's good, that's good."

"The purpose of our trip here is to find the method that can defeat Feitian and his head. However, now that I saw this kind of Master's scripture, I took a look. Although this thing is not what we are looking for, it belongs to our Liu family. If it is not included in the family library, it would be better to extract it and send it to our own homes."

A thick black smile appeared on the fourth uncle's face.

"The old Chen family imitated us in making stone coffins to engrave scriptures, but they forgot to make the coffin heavier and larger, and it is not like our Liu family's ancestral land, which is guarded by white turtle beasts. With our methods today, it is simply Can’t get in.”

The fourth uncle said plausibly, and then began to look around the stone coffin.

"The stone coffin also uses a mortise and tenon structure, with stone strips as buckles to splice these large stone slabs together."

The fourth uncle thought about it, took out a small iron hammer from his pocket, and knocked on a certain position of the stone coffin.

"Ding ding - dong dong -"

After a while, a long stone strip as thick as a finger leaked out from one side of the stone coffin.

The fourth uncle pulled it out with a gentle tug.

This one and the remaining three were extracted using the same technique. The fourth uncle asked us to work with him to push out the lid of the coffin.

"Hoo!" All of a sudden, the entire stone coffin board was pushed out and hit the water with a big splash.

The fourth uncle also said just now that the coffins are layered one above another, and inside is a small coffin, soaked in a ball of water. However, the size is quite narrow, and I don’t know whether it’s because the body inside was placed on its side or because the body was too thin.

The small coffin inside was also not a problem for the fourth uncle. He used the same technique, hammering and hammering, and quickly got out the last few stone buckles.

"Three two one, work harder!" the fourth uncle shouted, leading a few of us to work together.

The inner coffin inside is actually much smaller than the outer one, but the force required to push this one open is even greater than the one just now. The three of us using our own strength was not enough, so Liu Ruxiang used the Golden Body Technique again. , and with a big effort, the inner coffin was pushed open.

The situation inside appeared before my eyes, another small coffin...

Haha, it’s actually not as torturous as I imagined. There are only two floors. I guess the owner of the tomb at that time was not rich enough, otherwise it would have been seventeen or eight floors. If you want to touch the remains inside, you will probably die from exhaustion. .

What came into view was an almost lifelike corpse of an elderly man lying flat in a coffin.

He was wearing a set of black clothes and a gown, soaked in the pale yellow corpse water of the coffin. On his head was a small braid with a money rat tail. At a glance, he knew that he was from that era.

His mouth was slightly open, and his white eyes were wide open. The moment I stared at him, I was immediately trembling with fear.

This look is like a living person, as if he is looking at me!

I swallowed, breathing heavily. My legs almost went weak, and I couldn't help but take two steps back.

This man's body has completely sunk to the bottom of the water.

Generally speaking, people are heavier than water, and they will sink to the bottom if they die in the water. But why does it still float? That's because some bacteria and the like in the human body multiply and produce gas, which makes the human body bulge up like a ball. It expands and becomes larger, giving the appearance of a giant, and thus floats out of the water.

But if there are no bacteria to multiply, or if all the qi in the body are expelled, he will continue to sink in the water.

Liu Ruxiang stared at the old man's body in the water, amazed.

"Sure enough, a corpse placed in water will be difficult to decompose."

The fourth uncle smiled and said: "There is a saying that goes like this, if it is dry for a thousand years, if it is wet for ten thousand years, it will only take half a year if it is not dry or wet."

"What do you mean? In a dry environment, like in the desert, corpses can be preserved for thousands of years! Just like the corpse of the man we just saw who starved to death, although his body has been deformed by dryness, But the basic appearance is still intact and there is no corruption.”

"If the body is stored in water, it can remain incorruptible for thousands of years. Haha, of course, this is just an exaggeration. But if the body is placed in an environment that is neither dry nor wet, it will rot away in less than half a year. "

I secretly kept these words in my mind, and then listened to the fourth uncle continue: "Look, the corpse in the water is lifelike. You can even see the wrinkles on the old man's face. There is no sign of corruption at all."

The fourth uncle has always been very courageous. At this time, he actually dared to put his hand into the small coffin and directly touch the face of the corpse with his hand.

My heart was in my throat. I was afraid that this old male corpse would slowly open its eyes and just like the living dead before, it would get up and attack us.

The fourth uncle took his hands out of the water and washed them.

"It's very lucky to be able to maintain it like this. Not only does it need a wet environment, but the water also needs to be clean. It just so happens that the water here perfectly meets this standard."

The fourth uncle called me over at this time, and the two of us worked together to push the small coffin sideways, and then let the old corpse and corpse water fall on the side.

I didn't feel it just now, but now the corpse water in the coffin is also poured out, and a strong corpse smell suddenly fills the air!

My nose was smelled by the strong stench, and I breathed through my mouth quickly, making my face turn white.

At this time, the fourth uncle took out a rag and threw it to me, asking me to wipe the sand on the stone coffin and the foam in the corpse water.

And he took out some paper and a pencil from the gift box, and slowly copied Master's scriptures on the paper.

The fourth uncle recognized these ancient Zhuang characters very clearly. He could even read them out loud while copying them.

Time passed slowly, and by now, I no longer felt so fearful.

With the fourth uncle to stabilize the situation and the master by my side, I can not only listen to the stories told by the fourth uncle, but also gain a lot of knowledge.

But soon, I became afraid.

Just like this, we squatted on the ground and finished copying the Master's scriptures inside. The fourth uncle asked us to dig out the big coffin outside and copy it.

"Okay, one, two, three, try harder!"

The Fourth Master asked me to work hard, so I worked hard, and even the Golden Body Technique was activated.

After my anger subsided, I exerted a strong force on my waist and flipped the coffin up.

"How about it? My strength is not bad." I wiped the sweat from my forehead.

But at this moment, Liu Ruxiang's face suddenly turned pale when she looked at me.

"Wen Shan, get out of the way!" When the master shouted, I was confused.

What's going on? Why are you avoiding it?

However, Liu Ruxiang is my master after all. If the person who said this was the Fourth Master, I might even look down. Anyway, the cook had never tricked me before. Without thinking, he immediately squatted down and controlled his body to fall to the side.

At this time, the moment I fell down, I tilted my body and saw where I was standing just now, and suddenly a black and wet hand stretched out.

ah!

I still didn't know whose hand it was, but the next second I saw that the old corpse we had just dumped out of the stone coffin stood up.

His trembling body became much stronger now. The slap hit the stone coffin violently, and the fourth uncle standing on the other side who was supporting him suddenly let go of his hand.

"Bold evil creature, you are already dead, don't try to cause trouble in the world again!"

The fourth uncle shouted loudly, and his whole body was full of momentum. Just now he looked like a disheveled old man who picked up rags, but now he looked like a master hidden in the crowd.

He pulled out a black dagger from his waist, chanted the Master's scriptures that I had never heard before, and swiped his index finger, and a few drops of blood were smeared on the small black dagger.

A fierce light flashed in the eyes of the fourth uncle, and he jumped over from the other side of the coffin. He made a killing move and stabbed the neck of the living dead suddenly.

"How dare you block it!"

With a loud shout from the fourth uncle's mouth, the dagger suddenly pierced the arm that the living dead raised to block.

Liu Ruxiang saw this scene from one side and hurriedly opened the wooden box, methodically but very quickly. He immediately pulled out a small white boat made of paper, and took out a small porcelain bottle with the other hand, while singing Shi Gong Sutra. Wen poured the water in the small porcelain bottle at the living dead.

"The King of Twelve Years has boarded the ship, and in the twelfth month he will board the ship..."

Liu Ruxiang took action quickly, and while singing Master's scriptures, her shouting voice was like a bell, loud and deafening.

On the other side, the small porcelain bottle in his hand kept pouring water on the living dead.
