Chapter 41 Tomb Raiding for Tracing 【5】

The tomb was shaken violently, the dolls fell to the ground one after another, the jewels on the table were shaken to the ground, and some fell into the dark ditch, floating and sinking with pearls and mercury in the black liquid, and the flying figurines also fell on the algae well. It kept shaking.

The stone fish tank on the left splashed water, and a few pearls and blue scales flew out, rolling into the dark ditch with the shock, and I saw that the wall began to crack, and the tomb might collapse at any time. It was too late to jump back to the original robbery hole, and the exit of the main room was too far away. I turned my head and looked around, and noticed the opened coffin on the side——

"Senior brother three! Let's hide in the coffin!"

"What!? A coffin!" His face turned completely pale, his lips trembling, and he said, "I, I."

"If you don't hide in, it will be too late!" I shouted at the falling stones.

But the third senior brother seemed to have lost his soul, and he didn't take a step forward.

I don't know what he is afraid of. The coffin without a corpse is just a hard wooden box. Logically speaking, there should be nothing to scare him. Third Senior Brother Xiang, after sincerely apologizing to the figurine, he pulled out his leg vigorously, got up and took Third Senior Brother's hand and ran towards the coffin.

When I got to the place, I pushed him into the coffin without saying a word, and jumped in myself. When I tried my best to lift the lid of the coffin, the third senior brother suddenly grabbed my hand and said with horror on his face: " No, don't close it!"

"What are you talking about! How can you block these stones if you don't close it!"

"Please, please, let me do anything, just don't close the coffin," he begged me almost beggingly, his tone sad.

At the same time, large pieces of rocks began to fall from the algae well above my head, I pushed the third senior brother away in a hurry, and put the lid of the coffin on us.

The eyes fell into darkness.

Hearing the sound of stones hitting the coffin outside, I let out a long breath, and then I turned my head to ask about the situation of the third senior brother. Unexpectedly, he suddenly screamed sadly and sharply, desperately trying to lift the lid on the wooden coffin .

It sounded like the whole world was collapsing.

"Senior brother, what are you doing!" I tried to grab his hand in the dark, but his strength was much stronger than mine, and he broke free a few times, and I could even feel my hand being grabbed by him Bleeding.

In the end, I hugged his whole body with hands and feet, and managed to subdue him.

I said: "Senior brother, please be sober! This is the only place we can hide, if you lift the lid now we will be crushed to death by falling rocks!"

He didn't respond, but the third senior brother was trembling all over and kept vomiting. I felt that something was wrong, and I touched his face with both hands, and I was surprised that his face was wet, and tears flowed down my fingers.

"Chuchu," I called out his name anxiously, "what's wrong with you?"

His voice fragmentedly echoed in the wooden coffin: "I didn't take his life, don't put me with him."

"Put it together? Third senior brother, who will you put it with?"

"I don't want to be with dead people, I don't want to, I don't want to,"

The third senior brother spoke incoherently what I couldn't understand, and his emotions became more and more agitated. When I pressed on him and thought about how to make him faint, I felt his hand touch my waist. The cold touch caused a pimple on the back of my neck.

A warm current slowly slid down my neck, I stretched out my hand to touch it, and felt a sticky feeling in the palm of my hand.

Is this blood?

The third senior brother shouted: "I didn't take your life—! Don't lean over—!"

I endured the severe pain, and before he moved further, I pulled his other hand over my chest and said, "Senior brother! Dead people don't have heartbeats! Look, is my heart still alive?" beat?"

His hand holding the dagger seemed to be hesitant, and I quickly pressed my forehead to his forehead again.

"Also, dead people don't have body temperature, so no one here wants to put you with dead people," I continued, "it's just me here."

After a while of silence, his hoarse voice came out faintly: "Yingying?"

"It's me!" I was overjoyed, "That's great, third senior brother, are you okay! You almost scared me to death!"

In the dark, I heard a bang, and then a force hugged me tightly from my waist, and the voice sounded in my ears angrily: "I'm sorry."

"What's there to be sorry for, aren't we all fine?"

I felt like he hesitated for a while, and slowly stretched out his hand to the back of my neck: "Did I hurt you?"

I shook my head, grabbed his hand with the hand that was not stained with blood and said, "No, just now your dagger just brushed my hair and cut off a few strands."

——However, the cut made by the third senior brother is actually not shallow. I can still feel my own blood gurgling out, but I don't know how deep it is.

"Yeah," he seemed to believe, and said with a tone of self-reproach, "I'm sorry, I,"

"Stop apologizing," I said. "Instead of apologizing to me, why don't you tell me what happened just now?"

The third senior brother was quiet for a moment, and said, "Remember I told you about my forgery being discovered by the Chu family?"

"Well, remember, you said that you and your mother were framed for stealing the real thing, and they will drive you out of the Chu family."

"I lied," he said slowly, "the day they kicked me and Auntie out, they said they wanted me to pay for my life, so several servants put me in the same place I told you before. In front of the grave of the main wife’s son. I saw them dig up the grave, and after the coffin was exposed, they opened the coffin again.”

"what?"

I have a bad feeling.

"They tied me up with a thick rope, put a sackcloth in my mouth, put me in the coffin with his decomposed corpse, and then watched them close the coffin," said the third senior brother, "Whether I How to beg for mercy, I only heard the sound of soil falling on the coffin, and after a while, there was no other sound except my crying."

I looked in his direction in disbelief, waiting quietly for him to continue.

"I can still remember the stench of corpses, and I can feel the maggots crawling on me, and I'm retching, and the acid soaks the whole sackcloth."

"Gradually, in that narrow space, I became more and more out of breath and more and more afraid. I began to have hallucinations that seemed real and fake. I felt that the son's eye hole seemed to be staring at me all the time, in a trance. I also heard him questioning me non-stop, asking why I took his life."

"Three brothers."

I felt that my eyelids were a little heavy, and I touched the back of my neck with my hands. I don't know when the blood has covered the whole neck.So I lay down on top of him and buried my head between the third brother's neck to prevent him from discovering the blood dripping on him.

"I didn't take his life, I don't want any of this."

He hugged me even tighter, and in this small space, his lips seemed to brush my forehead lightly, "I'm sorry for frightening you."

I shook my head and said in a muffled voice, "Don't say sorry again."

"Yes, you're right," he smiled softly, and looked up to listen to the voices outside, "There seems to be no movement outside, I'll go out and have a look."

"Third senior brother, you didn't say how you got out later," I asked, my eyelids getting heavier and heavier.

"Master rescued me," he replied, "I don't know how he got there, but he dug up the grave and destroyed the coffin and rescued me before I lost consciousness."

The third brother continued: "When I came out, the Chu family was already on fire, and everyone was busy fighting the fire, so they had no time to pay attention to us."

"So you didn't set the fire?"

"Unfortunately, no," he replied, "I don't know who it is, maybe it's the master, after all, he put me and A Niang in a ruined temple and he disappeared. Isn't this a guilty conscience? .”

"Indeed."

He pushed the coffin lid slightly, but found that it couldn't be pushed open, probably because the stones just pressed the coffin.

The third senior brother said: "Tudou, you have to be patient a little bit, I will use my internal force to push the entire lid open."

I nodded slightly, and then I heard his inhalation, and immediately my palms were concentrated, and I pushed up with both hands, and he bounced the coffin away forcefully.

The dazzling light of Ye Mingzhu rushed into my line of sight, I squinted my eyes, and was relieved to hear that there was really no movement outside.

With this relief, the nerves that had been tense just now relaxed, and the feeling of fatigue swept over immediately.

My consciousness gradually blurred.
