Holy Bone

Chapter 1166 Unexpected Coffin Opening

Seeing Xu San's way of throwing stones and asking for directions, Jin An suddenly showed emotion.

He thought of the scene when he met the old Taoist priest for the first time. The coffin bearer of the Lin family encountered the coffin falling to the ground, and the old Taoist priest who presided over the ritual also used this trick.

At that time, it was a bad omen that two short and one long were burned.

It was only then that the old Taoist priest came to him to carry the coffin, saying that his fate was so hard that no one has ever been seen before, and there will be no one to come after, and then the two of them walked up and down all the way to the present.

It was precisely because of this encounter that Jin An became particularly interested in the matter in front of him and focused on it.

It's just that what happened next was beyond everyone's expectations. The questioning incense used for throwing stones to ask directions didn't burn out two shorts and one long, and it didn't break off in the middle, it actually retracted directly into the coffin!

Xu San saw that something was wrong, and it was too late to reach out to grab the incense sticks, the incense sticks had been swallowed by the coffin, this made the complexions of the deputy chiefs and the earthworkers present change, and everyone's expressions became ugly.

Even a fool can see that the coffin is not a good person.

Xu San gritted his teeth and lit the second stick of incense stick, and inserted it into the crack of the coffin again. The result was the same, and he retracted into the coffin.

"This……"

"Xu San, what's the situation?" The deputy commander and the others looked over in shock.

Xu San frowned tightly, and paced back and forth in front of the coffin: "I originally wanted to test how fierce the dead people in this coffin really are, and so many methods are needed to suppress the corpse, so that I can prepare countermeasures in advance."

The geotechnical student nervously said, "Third brother, you mean we won't open the coffin?"

Unexpectedly, Xu San looked at the small coffin coldly, and said with a cold snort: "Of course I will continue to open the coffin. Although there was a little accident, this does not hinder my determination to open the coffin to see what happened."

"I lighted incense for the purpose of testing. No matter what the final outcome is, even if the worst happens, I have a way to deal with it."

Speaking of this, Xu San asked those logistics personnel to find the leader and bring the pile of things he had prepared.

These logistics personnel were all powerful and agile, and they quickly fetched the things that Xu San had prepared in advance.

"I thought I wouldn't need these things at first, because it was inconvenient to carry them with me, so I left them outside. Fortunately, I brought these things with me." Xu Shao counted the items and said happily.

Among them, the most cumbersome one is the corpse-binding hemp rope net, which weighs more than a hundred catties, and it seems a little difficult for two people to carry it.

Xu San began to arrange the coffin opening plan.

In fact, his plan is very simple. He, the deputy chief, the geotechnical engineer, and the geotechnical student will open the coffin later, and then let the logistics staff support the bamboo poles to support the hemp rope net to bind the corpse. When the coffin is opened, The bamboo poles were removed, and the coffin was covered with hemp rope nets.

This bundle of corpse hemp rope net has been with it for many years, and it is one of its most proud instruments. It was first soaked in tung oil and exposed to the sun for a hundred days, then soaked in cinnabar and exposed to the sun for a hundred days, and finally it was consecrated in a Taoist temple for several years. In the end, it took him several years of painstaking efforts to refine it, and hung evil spirit charms on the net rope.And every time when the sun is the heaviest in the world, such as the Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of May, the Double Ninth Festival on the ninth day of September, and the first day of the Lunar New Year, he would put him in the sun and expose it to the sun. Energy, absorbing enough Yang Qi, it has a miraculous effect on dealing with those unclean things or fraudulent corpses.

The only downside is that it is a bit bulky and inconvenient to carry.

"These coffin nails, each of us has a few, in case a dead person escapes out of the coffin, when it is caught by my corpse net and cannot get out, we will drive these coffin nails into the joints of its body. " Xu San said this to the three people who opened the coffin with him later, and at the same time told them to cover their mouths and noses with pieces of cloth to prevent the yang energy of the living from breathing out on the dead and causing fraud by yang.

Everything is ready, just open the coffin.

Xu San carefully put away those gold ink fountain threads, not a single one fell out. According to what he said, these are all good things.In the eyes of ordinary people, at most it is smelted into gold jewelry, but in the eyes of practitioners, these gold ink fountain threads are rare magic tools to ward off evil spirits.

After putting away the gold ink fountain thread, boom!

Boom!
Crowbars or shovels chiseled into the coffin lid, and the coffin lid was gradually pried open amidst the one, two, and three slogans with cloth covering the mouth and nose.

No matter how firmly the coffin was nailed, it couldn't withstand the prying of four grown men. The gap between the coffin lids was getting wider and wider. Xu San shouted in a deep voice, "Get ready!"

Those logistics staff immediately looked tense, staring at the small coffin without blinking, waiting for the situation to put down the dead twine net.

boom!
The lid of the coffin hit the ground heavily, hoo, there was a strong wind, and corrupt yin energy was blown out of the coffin.

Xu San and the others hurriedly retreated, and the dead-binding hemp rope net fell on the coffin accurately, covering the entire coffin.

Unexpectedly, everything in the coffin was peaceful, and there was no dead body fraud as imagined.

Xu San and the deputy looked at the first few people at each other, then approached the coffin cautiously, their collective expressions changed slightly.

There are no corpses in the small coffin, the remains of the general's heirs, let alone funerary objects. The coffin is empty, and there is a tunnel underneath, leading to the deep underground.

The tunnel is pitch-black, and the specific scene below cannot be seen.

"What's going on, the left hall is the same as the right hall, is it a tomb of clothes?" The earth worker stood in front of the coffin with an ugly expression.

The deputy said with a groan: "Could it be that the things inside were too violent, dug through the bottom of the coffin, and then tunneled out? Maybe this is the only way to explain why the whereabouts of the tomb robbers earlier were unknown."

Xu San was brave enough to jump into the coffin, carefully inspect the walls of the tunnel, then solemnly shook his head and said, "These stone walls don't look like they were dug by fingernails, they should be formed naturally."

naturally formed?
The deputy head and the geotechnical engineer carefully inspected it, and it really seemed to be formed naturally, with jagged rocks, uneven rock formations, and no trace of nails.

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay. The tomb of the Warring States General made them feel even more confusing and full of mystery. The husband and wife were buried together, but there was only the wife's clothes tomb, and the son's side was an empty coffin. Bursts of tunnels.

There are also those previous tomb robbers whose life and death are unknown and disappeared, which makes their minds tense all the time.

Is this really the tomb of an ordinary general?Suspense one after another, interlocking, full of weirdness and mystery.

At this moment, even Jin An became very interested in the tomb of the great general of the Warring States Period. He huddled together with the deputy chief and the others, looking at the tunnel in the coffin with great interest.

Standing next to Jin An, the student of the Geotechnical University suddenly put his hands on his shoulders and rubbed together a few times: "These cold winds have made my skin crawl. Master, why do I feel that the temperature around me is getting lower?"
