Chapter 51
Digging a Grave (please read it!!!)
Chu Zheng frowned and stood there thinking for a long time, but found that he could no longer grasp the inspiration.
After a while, he gave up.
Time is precious now, and now he can't waste more time thinking about an inspiration that may not be useful.
Then, Chu Zheng put away the paper, searched around the room, and indeed found some silver coins.
There are about ten taels of silver.
But Chu Zheng didn't touch the silver coins.
In fact, he actually saw some silver in Li's house or in other villagers.
In total, there are at least a thousand taels.
But Chu Zheng knew that his top priority now was not to find gold and silver in this village.
But live!
Those gold and silver treasures are naturally good things, but they must be useful.
Not to mention, Chu Zheng has not figured out the specific killing rules of this taboo.
What if the forbidden killing law is that if you take the village's property, you will die?
Chu Zheng himself would never gamble with his life!
Then, Chu Zheng searched the village again and confirmed that there were no other easter eggs in the village. Then he prepared to dig out Li Hongchen from the graveyard.
Every easter egg is either a way to avoid a crisis or something to gain.
But this time, Chu Zheng only got a piece of paper and no real reward. Therefore, Chu Zheng felt that the real reward of this Easter egg must be at Li Hongchen's tomb.
Therefore, he must dig out this Li Hongchen.
After confirming the target, Chu Zheng found a well-preserved hoe in a farmer's house, and used an iron piece to cut a piece of wood as a handle.
After installing it, he started looking for Li Hongchen's grave on the nearby mountainside.
What is written on the paper is the back mountain, and generally the back mountain of a village is the mountain opposite to the village entrance.
So that's where Chu Zheng looked first.
After searching on the main road for a long time, he found a deserted mountain road and entered the back mountain.
When entering the back mountain, Chu Zheng first passed by a deserted vegetable field. The vegetable field was covered with weeds, and some of the vegetables that were still alive were also wild. They were not much different from weeds. It looked like they had not grown for a long time.
People have arrived.
"No..." Chu Zheng looked at the tombstone in front of him and sighed softly.
In this vegetable field, he also found some graves.
It's just that the tombstones on these graves do not write the name Li Hongchen.
Then, Chu Zheng continued to walk deeper into the mountain and continued to look for tombstones.
After searching for nearly two hours, Chu Zheng reached the depths of the back mountain. Along the way, he found many graves.
Some graves have been buried for so long that even the tombstones are covered with loess.
Some graves are covered by weeds, and if you don't look carefully, you won't be able to find them.
Chu Zheng's search was also extremely time-consuming.
The hardships involved are insignificant.
While searching for the tomb, Chu Zheng discovered a strange phenomenon.
In the back mountain area, there are obviously more people with the surname Liu, and many of them are related.
Obviously, this is the ancestral land of a family, and those buried here are all members of the Liu family.
Chu Zheng estimated in his heart that this Liu family is the Liu family in Qingshui Village.
Considering that the Liu Mansion has a large courtyard that is different from other people in the village, it is normal for it to have an ancestral land.
"Li Hongchen...Liu Mansion..." Chu Zheng felt that the inspiration was getting clearer and clearer.
Then, he started searching in the Liu family's cemetery.
Although finding a person with the surname Li in the ancestral land of the Liu family was a bit contradictory, Chu Zheng had a feeling that Li Hongchen must be buried in the ancestral land of the Liu family.
Because the easter egg belongs to Li Hongchen, and the taboo is in the Liu family. If there is no relationship between the two, no one would believe it.
Then, Chu Zheng turned over the graveyard.
Finally, I found Li Hongchen’s tomb in a corner of the Liu family’s ancestral land.
This is an ordinary tomb, surrounded by weeds and even some bamboos growing on the top of the tomb.
On the tombstone is written the tomb of the late concubine Liu Men and Li Hongchen.
When Chu Zheng saw the tomb, he breathed a sigh of relief.
This time was not wasted.
"Woooooooo..."
The wind blew harder.
Then, Chu Zheng took a powerful pill, picked up a hoe, and started digging at the tomb.
Although Chu Zheng felt that the taboo was most likely transformed by Li Hongchen. The dig now was probably the tomb of the taboo, but he didn't care so much now.
If there are Easter eggs, he still has a chance to live. If there are no Easter eggs, then he will die.
Of course, Chu Zheng also knew very well that with only easter eggs, he might not be able to survive.
Just like the encounter in the Zombie Temple, the same encounter in the dungeon.
Digging graves is not a light job, and Chu Zheng is just an ordinary person now, with a little more strength at most.
After taking three powerful pills, it was not until noon that Chu Zhengcai dug up the surface of the tomb and found the location of the coffin.
Chu Zheng naturally did not dig out the entire coffin. He only dug to the position of the coffin lid and stopped.
After all, he just wanted to open the coffin, there was no need to waste his energy digging deeper.
Chu Zheng looked at the coffin with a chill in his heart.
The whole body of the coffin is red, and its surface looks very new. There are almost no traces of time, and it looks a little evil.
Chu Zheng had a certain understanding of funeral rituals before. Coffins were generally divided into red, black, and colorless.
Needless to say, it is colorless, and most of the people who use it are ordinary people and poor people who cannot afford to paint.
Because they have no more choices.
Black is generally used for people who died young, committed suicide, or died in military disasters.
Of course, on Chu Zheng's original earth, this was gradually becoming less particular, and the use of black coffins became a common phenomenon.
As for the red coffin, only those over eighty years old are eligible to use it, which is a sign of mourning.
But Chu Zheng knew that the person in the coffin was definitely not an eighty-year-old old lady.
Because he had observed the corpse with the easter egg before and found that the other person's teeth were very neat, not teeth that an old man could have.
He is only in his twenties at most.
Therefore, it is naturally impossible for the other party's sister to be over eighty years old.
Thinking of this, Chu Zheng thought of another use of the red coffin.
Suppress evil!
In ancient times, because red was a cinnabar color, it was said to have some kind of effect in suppressing evil.
Chu Zheng pursed his lips and felt a little uncomfortable looking at the coffin.
If this coffin has the same effect of suppressing evil as the original Zombie Temple, then there might be something terrifying in it.
Digging out horrible things is really no different from seeking death.
However, Chu Zheng knew better that half of the time had passed now, if he gave up opening the coffin.
Then all the time he spent before was wasted.
He has gained nothing and is close to death.
