Chapter 54: The Tomb of Clothes and Crowns
But in a moment, Professor Wu suddenly made up his mind and said, "According to the current situation, are we just consuming this? I think it's better to think of a way to open the sarcophagus before talking about it. Regardless of whether Xu Fu is here or not, you have to do something."
I knew that it would be useless to say nonsense at this critical moment, so I simply ignored it.
Qin Xuanling said: "Although I can be sure that our current location is not in the barrier, if Xu Fu's coffin is just such a sarcophagus, it is obviously not very reasonable."
Professor Wu said: "Actually, I encountered many such situations in archaeology before. The ancient style of burial was really formed during the Han and Tang dynasties. In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, no one would open mountains to build large-scale constructions for the tombs, especially some nobles with status paid more attention to simple burials.
According to my research, Xu Fu is a closed disciple of Guiguzi after all. He has learned the essence of Guiguzi in many places, and he must be more concerned about concealment everywhere, so I would not find it strange that his burial place was just a straw mat."
Baizhifan said suspiciously: "According to your words, if Xu Fu's coffin really doesn't care about anything, wouldn't it be that the Zhenming card wouldn't have been brought in by him?"
Professor Wu said: "Well, it depends on how much he attaches importance to the Zhenming card. When he sent someone to steal the Zhenming card from Xianyang Palace, he should have been prepared to not return after going to sea.
That proves that he attaches great importance to this thing and would rather live in the ocean than take him for himself. Therefore, before he dies, he will definitely ask the people around him to bring the Zhenming card with him when he is buried."
At this time, Jin Hu interrupted again, "I'm telling you two, why don't you argue again? I just went to the death, but now I'm like my own brothers. Could it be that you two are singing a double act?"
Professor Wu glared at Jin Hu angrily and said nothing.
Baipai Fan said, "It's useless to talk too much, so why not open it and take a look. I thought about it just now. Instead of fighting with this old man for a quarrel, it's better to wait until something is found before you can tell the difference.
Besides, we still need to go out and we cannot waste our time on such things.
There was a rope in my backpack, so I used the rope to hang the coffin lid away. If nothing happened, let's go over and see what do you think?"
Professor Wu and Qin Xuanling both nodded silently, while Jin Hu shrugged and looked indifferent. As for Xiaoqian and Siyan, they are just making so-called music now, so naturally they have no say.
I thought for a while and felt that finding the way out was the top priority. I could only not stop or participate in their behavior, so I turned around and took care of the injured gardener.
Professor Wu and the others understood my attitude, so they didn't ask any more questions and started planning the coffin.
The final result of their discussion was to wrap the ropes around both ends of the coffin lid, and we first opened a certain distance, and then lifted the ropes together to lift the coffin lid.
However, this method is quite laborious. Although I saw Uncle Long and Ghost Hand lifted up part of the coffin lid just now, it was when both of them were exerting strength.
If you hang it with a rope like this, in addition to removing the weight of the coffin lid itself, you also have to straighten the rope before it can be run, so it will definitely be a very difficult method.
Soon, two bundles of military paracords were pulled out and wrapped around the upper and lower ends of the coffin lid. I never participated, so the only ones who could do their best were the white paper fans, Qin Xuanling, Jin Hu and Siyan, and several of them were still injured.
Professor Wu and Xiaoqian were already tall at one year and weak in their bodies, so it was impossible to do such heavy work.
I quietly pulled Xiaoqian over and protected her behind me, for fear that something would happen again later, and she also reminded me: "Brother Feng, be careful!"
As the golden tiger roared "one, two, three", the rope was straightened instantly, and then the four of them tried their best to pull the rope to a high place.
In the blink of an eye, the coffin lid squeaked, and everyone immediately stood up, but this time nothing happened.
Jinhu gasped and greeted in a low voice: "Be careful, lift it up slowly and take a look."
So this time the coffin lid was finally pulled up completely. Professor Wu was anxious and hurried forward to direct them to slowly move the coffin lid to the side.
Seeing that there was no situation at all, Jinhu simply suggested: "Damn it, I'm so tired of doing this. Why don't we put down the rope and move it directly, it's okay anyway."
Baizhifan and Qin Xuanling looked at each other, then accepted the proposal, and saw them slowly slid down the coffin lid, then rushed up and lifted it away.
At this time, Professor Wu could no longer wait and immediately rushed to the front and watched, but then he was stunned.
We also surrounded us and saw that there was a robe in the sarcophagus, with a bronze sword on each side, and nothing else was there.
Jin Hu swallowed his saliva and said intently: "What's going on? Is this a tomb?"
Everyone was a little confused for a while, and I thought to myself that this might be a trick or something.
Suddenly, I heard a sound behind me, so I turned my head and saw the gardener slamming the ground hard, humming weakly in my mouth.
I was wondering what he meant, and then I panicked to find that at some point, we were quietly surrounded by mummies, exactly the same as those we encountered in front, and on the other end were groups of blood ants rolling into a huge sphere and rolling towards us.
I almost lost my voice and shouted: "There is something!"
When everyone heard my warning, they immediately became chaotic like a frightened bird. Jinhu tried hard to pick up the guy and shouted: "It's not over, his uncle!"
And I noticed that at this time, Baipai Fan and Qin Xuanling were not moving at all. Both of them were staring at the two copper swords in the sarcophagus, almost without even blinking.
Professor Wu shouted anxiously: "What are you doing? Don't worry about this for now, find a way to escape!"
But when Baizhifan and Qin Xuanling took out a bronze sword at the same time, they rushed forward like warriors on the battlefield, thinking of the group of mummies and blood ants.
I don’t know what these two bronze swords are from. As long as they are used to destiny, they can immediately make the surrounding mummies into powder. The ant ball on the other end is directly cut into two halves by Qin Xuanling’s sword, and it instantly scatters into birds and beasts.
When we looked at the scene in front of us, we almost stopped the scene before we could react.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly collapsed on the ground.
Jin Huqi said: "Old Qin, what are the origins of these two bronze swords? They are so powerful."
Qin Xuanling replied calmly: "Have you heard of Gan Jiang Moye?"
Jin Hu couldn't help but widen his eyes and shouted, "What the hell is the international joke? Why is Gan Jiang Moye here?"
Baizhifan smiled and said, "It seems that you don't understand Xu Fu's character. It is said that this person loves to collect treasures from the world. Even Qin Shihuang's Xianyang Palace dares to send people to steal things, so it's not surprising that Gan Jiang Moye appears here.
When I opened the coffin just now, I felt something was wrong. I always felt that these two swords had been seen somewhere. Until I recalled the Gan Jiang Moye in the ancient book, I would have dared to use it to deal with the mummy. I believe that Brother Qin had also learned the tricks and would act with me."
After hearing this, I couldn't help but be curious: "This will never appear out of thin air, is it any meaning in it?"
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the darkness in the distance: "You are so good at it..."
My heart couldn't help but skip a beat. Could it be that someone was following us?
Jin Hu hurriedly raised his gun and yelled: "Who? Where is? Get out of here!"
I saw a thin figure slowly walking in the distance. He was slightly short, with long hair and beards. His whole dress was like the flying fairy from the sky that came from ancient paintings.
Qin Xuanling suddenly stood up when he saw this situation and said incredible: "Can it be..."
I hurriedly asked, "Is it that Lao Qin? Don't always say half of the words."
At this time, the figure spoke again: "I am in Chen Yanshu, and I am the tomb guardian here. I have been waiting for you for a long time."
