After a slight creaking sound, a hole opened in the middle of the coffin and it automatically opened and fell to the ground. At the same time, a man wearing dark armor sat up from the coffin.
"Fuck!" Pan Zi was so stressed that he raised the shotgun and wanted to pull the trigger.
"Don't move!" The fat man quickly moved over and held down the barrel of the shotgun: "He is wearing a treasure, don't break it."
Wuxie walked behind the body and inspected it: "Pan Zi, it can sit up because there is a mechanism behind it and a wooden stick supporting it."
Lin Yi noticed that Zhang Qiling was staring directly at the corpse in dark armor, with murderous intent in his eyes almost overflowing: "You want to kill him?"
Zhang Qiling put away his murderous intent and stared at the armor-clad corpse with disgust: "It has lived long enough."
I want to kill him, but I have to explain a long process before I kill him, which is troublesome...
"I'll help you." Seeing that he was a little confused, Lin Yi took the black gold ancient knife from Zhang Qiling and walked to the coffin. He raised his hand and patted the fat man on the shoulder.
"What are you doing...?" The shadow of being almost hit just now was still there, and the fat man moved away instantly: "Dr. Lin, what do you want to do?"
"Kill it." Lin raised his knife and chopped off the corpse's head like a watermelon, and even cut off the armor covering the neck.
"Hey! Doctor Lin, do you know what this is? This is a priceless jade figurine. The last jade figurine that was discovered is placed in the museum for people to visit every day. This is a priceless treasure!"
The fat man picked up his head in pain and tried to put it back together.
"It's 'priceless', that means it's not worth anything..." Lin Yi returned the black gold ancient sword to Zhang Qiling who came over: "The knife is good, where did you buy it?"
Zhang Qiling put the ancient black gold sword back into its scabbard with her backhand and turned to look directly at her third uncle.
The third uncle who was comforting the fat man that no one dared to accept the complete set of jade figurines and that it would be easier to sell without the headgear felt his gaze and raised his head: "What?"
Lin Yi repeated the question just now: "Third Master, do you still have the knife?"
The third uncle glanced at the ancient black gold knife carried on Zhang Qiling's back: "The ancient black gold knife is not available in Dabaicai, but I will help you keep an eye on knives of similar quality and contact you if there is any."
Wuxie was startled by Lin Yi's sudden action: "Dr. Lin, why are you cutting it? There are still breathing thousand-year-old corpses, which may be of great research value."
"This jade figurine sheds its skin every 500 years, and the jade figurine can only be taken off when it is peeling. This living corpse has been more than 3,000 years old. If the jade figurine is not taken off in time, the body will be raised. We will all die here."
Zhang Qiling helped Lin Yi explain the reason for chopping up the ancient corpse. After all, he did it for himself.
The first time he heard Zhang Qiling speak such a long speech, Lin Yi looked at him in surprise: It seems that this guy usually talks less but doesn't like to talk.
"Brother, how do you know it has lived for more than 3,000 years?" Fatty discovered a blind spot.
Zhang Qiling pointed to the purple box where the ancient corpse was used as a pillow: "There is something you want to know in there."
Wu Xie watched helplessly as the fat man threw away his head and took out the box. Although it was splattered with black blood, he could still tell that the material of the box was purple jade.
The box is made of a complete piece of amethyst and should be worth a lot of money.
Purple jade is amethyst. It was a good thing in the Warring States Period. If you use it as a pillow, you may not be treated like this by the princes and nobles.
"Let me see what good things are inside~" The fat man wiped the black blood on it with a handkerchief, and then opened the purple jade box.
There was no gold, silver or jewelry as expected, only a silk book. The fat man unfolded the silk book and shined a light on it: "Ouch~ This thing is actually woven with gold thread!"
"How much is such an idea worth of gold thread? The entire silk book is the most valuable." The third uncle took out the silk book from the fat man's hand and handed it to Wu Xie: "My nephew, you know ancient Chinese. Take a look at what is written on it."
Wuxie took the silk book and unfolded it. The first line on the left read 'The Book of the Underworld King Shang': "This is the letter of introduction from King Lu Shang to the King of Hell!"
"You need a letter of introduction when you report to the Lord of Hell? Tianzhen, please translate it quickly so that the brothers can see it!" The fat man walked around his third uncle and sat next to Wuxie, reading silk books together. Although he couldn't understand, he wanted to watch the fun.
Wuxie picked the words he could understand and translated them for everyone. The most important of them were two things.
The first thing is how King Lu Shang obtained the Ghost Seal. During the tomb robbery, he killed the White Snake and obtained two treasures. With those two treasures, he was invincible.
Because he often robs tombs and is exposed to corpse gas all year round, various sequelae show up as he gets older. Fearing death, he seeks help from his military advisor.
Military advisor Tie Miansheng was proficient in numerology and feng shui. He told King Lu Shang that jade figurines could rejuvenate youth and live forever. However, the method of making jade figurines has become extinct, and the only way to find them is in ancient tombs.
King Lu Shang found the location of a Western Zhou imperial mausoleum in ancient books and found jade figurines from the imperial mausoleum.
Tie Miansheng used a special method to take out the original owner of the jade figurine and sealed it in the sarcophagus.
King Lu Shang faked his death according to the plan, built another mausoleum on top of the Western Zhou imperial mausoleum, and placed the sarcophagus in that mausoleum.
Before putting on the jade figurine, he killed all the craftsmen and followers involved in the matter, leaving only two close associates, a man and a woman, to help him bury him.
After telling the part he recognized, Wuxie stopped.
The third uncle nodded secretly: "It seems that this is where the corpses in the waterway came from."
The fat man, who was not satisfied with the story, scratched his head and protested: "You are naive, can you do it? There are only so many stories recorded in such a long silk book."
"I don't even know the rest of them, I only know this much." Wuxie admitted that he couldn't understand the rest.
Pan Zi asked: "What about the Iron-faced Man? He was also buried to death?"
Wuxie shook his head: "Tie Miansheng's name was not mentioned later."
The third uncle guessed: "This kind of person is very smart. He should have expected it earlier... In other words, he suggested that King Lu Shang kill people and silence them. He should not be buried for King Lu Shang."
Zhang Qiling suddenly said: "Of course he won't, because in the end, it was not King Lu Shang who lay in the jade figurine, but himself."
After Wu Xie thought for a few seconds, a lightbulb came on in his head, and he slapped his thigh suddenly: "When King Lu Shang was enthroned, Tie Mian Sheng swapped himself with him!"
Zhang Qiling nodded: "He deliberately stayed by King Lu Shang's side, just to take advantage of the opportunity to achieve his goal of immortality."
"Brother, how do you know this? It's like you have experienced it yourself." Wuxie looked at Zhang Qiling, his eyes full of questions.
Zhang Qiling looked away and looked at the headless corpse: "I found a complete set of Warring States silk books when I was fighting a few years ago. After he gave King Lu Shang advice, he set fire to his family and used the body of a beggar to pretend to be He then escaped by pretending to be a beggar.
He waited for King Lu Shang to be buried and sneaked into the tomb, dragged out the body of King Lu Shang and put on the jade figurine himself and lay down in it. "
Wuxie felt a little strange: "King Lu Shang was dragged out, wouldn't there be two bloody corpses?"
Lin Yiye looked at Zhang Qiling strangely. He was suspicious of another point: according to what Zhang Qiling said, how did the Iron-faced Sheng restore the coffin controlled by the agency after putting on the jade figurine alone?
Zhang Qiling explained with uneasy eyes: "It's not written in the Warring States silk books. Maybe it's because King Lu Shang's time in the jade figurines was too short, so he couldn't turn into a blood corpse."
Wuxie suspected that Zhang Qiling was lying, but the other party obviously didn't want to tell him, and exposing him would only lead to another lie, so he did not question Zhang Qiling.
After saying this long series of words, Zhang Qiling secretly breathed a sigh of relief as if he had completed his task: "It's almost dawn, we should go out."
"No, we haven't found Guixi yet!" Fatty objected. He fought this fight just to find Guixi. Now that he has found nothing, he doesn't want to leave like this.
Zhang Qiling glanced over with cold eyes, threatening the fat man with his eyes.
The fat man who was being stared at felt a chill on his back, so he raised his hands in surrender: "Let's go... let's go now!"
He rolled his eyes and said with a smile on his face: "But, have you taken the jade figurines away to the head office?"
