Tomb Raiders I Can Hear Antique Talk

Chapter 30
"Who?! Don't play tricks! Get up for me!" the fat man shouted with a gun in his hand.

Even Hu Bayi, who has always been calm, is tense at this moment, with his fingers firmly on the trigger, ready to shoot at any time.

Yingzi on the side leaned forward, glanced into the coffin, said "Huh" in surprise, and asked curiously, "Why is there a living person lying here? What are you wearing?"

It's no wonder that everyone was surprised. Under the partition of the coffin, there was a man lying there. His facial features were strong and he should be a man, but his face was fair and beardless, and he was wearing blush and black eyeliner.His expression was serene and his face was fresh, as if he was just sleeping in a coffin.

But judging from his clothes, this man did not look like a modern person. He was wearing a strange white robe and a strange black top hat, which seemed to be a mix of black and white, and chrysanthemum-shaped patterns were embroidered with gold silk on the clothes.

"Who is this person? Why are you still quietly sleeping under this pimple?" Yingzi said while reaching out to the man's nostrils, "He's still breathing, even if he's breathing too slowly... "

Seeing that there was nothing unusual about this person, Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang also slowly put down their guns, carefully observing this person with their flashlights on.

"Let's say he is a zongzi, he has thin skin and tender flesh; say he is a dead person, he can still pant, let's say he is a modern person, he is dressed in such a mess that he looks like an ancient person. But the clothes are strange enough Yes, we swept away ghosts and monsters back then, and packed up a lot of ancient clothes, and this is the first time we have seen this. Old Hu, do you know this thing?" asked the fat man.

Hu Bayi stared carefully for a long time, opened his mouth, but held back again.

He turned his head and said to Xiao Ran: "Boss Xiao, I actually thought of a possibility. My grandfather saw this kind of person in the coffin when he was living with the warlords, but I'm not sure. You have seen a lot, you should understand This, why don't you come and tell us?"

Seeing this man's attire, Xiao Ran already had an answer in his heart, but he just felt it was too unbelievable.But I couldn't hold back Hu Bayi's offer, whether it was true or not, so I had to bite the bullet and say it.

"Master Hu, you are being polite. The one in the coffin is dressed like an ancient man, but not necessarily an ancient man. The clothes on his body, in fact, the clothes on his body, can be said to be a kind of Taoist robe..."

Just as Xiao Ran said this, Hu Ba nodded, but Fatty Wang said suspiciously: "Taoist robe? Impossible? It's not like I haven't seen a Taoist priest before. Which Taoist priest in a Taoist temple wears it like this? They even paint their eyebrows and eyes. What do you want? It is said that this is an actor, but I still feel that it is so similar."

"Fatty, don't interrupt, who told you that these are the Taoist priests you've seen? Listen to Boss Xiao's words." Hu Bayi said.

Xiao Ran smiled and continued: "I heard that when the little devils invaded everywhere in the past, they would bring some special personnel with the army to calm their emotions and save the souls of the dead, so that they could feel at ease when they invaded. They were among these people Local Taoists. And the sources of their theories of these Taoists are also some ancient theories of our country..."

Hu Ba nodded and said: "It seems that you are right. What I know is similar to what Boss Xiao said. The oriental priests of this little devil are called Onmyoji."

The fat man suddenly realized: "It turned out to be an accomplice of the devil. It seems that the devil thought he couldn't lift his shoulders and hands when he left, so he threw him here. Bah! He deserves it! But it's been almost 40 years, how can he still be alive? Woolen cloth?"

Hu Bayi shook his head: "Don't underestimate these guys. At that time, the little devils mobilized the whole country to plan our great rivers and mountains. Not only businessmen, scholars, and overseas students in our country drew maps and collected all kinds of information, but there were also many of them. Zhongdong Taoists also came to our country, looking for dragon lairs and veins everywhere, trying to crucify our national destiny with their evil methods, which is extremely sinister.

"Fortunately, at that time, many capable people and strangers in our country fought back, so they didn't succeed. When my grandfather's master, Sun Guofu, was traveling around, he met such an onmyoji and fought against him. According to him, a few experts from our side went directly to the little devil's hometown, recruited some old monsters from the devil's side, and caused a catastrophe for the devil, killing many people..."

The fat man clapped his hands: "Happy! It should be like this! We have to burn the flames of war to the old den of imperialism! Now we simply inherit the legacy of our ancestors, suppress this old way of the East and criticize it on the street, and apologize to the common people!"

He was about to reach out to grab the onmyoji's clothes while he was talking, but Xiao Ran hurriedly stopped him: "Fatty Lord, this guy has been lying here half dead for so many years, he must have used some kind of evil technique, be careful."

The fat man hesitated for a moment, then withdrew his hand.Yingzi pointed to the coffin wall with sharp eyes and said, "He has an envelope here, is it a suicide note?"

Hu Bayi took a photo, and found that under the cover of the oriental Taoist's wide sleeves, a kraft paper envelope was clinging to the coffin wall, revealing a sharp corner.If ordinary people don't look carefully, it's really not easy to notice that the eyes of Yingzi, a good hunter, are indeed extraordinary.

He carefully stretched out his hand to take out the envelope, and found that no mechanism had been touched, and everyone around him relaxed.The fat man glanced at the baggy clothes, and asked: "His Taoist robe is eye-catching, I wonder if it's worth a lot."

Xiao Ran smiled and said, "Fatty Lord, Taoist robe is just a metaphor, he is called Shouyi."

"The shroud? He's thoughtful. He's afraid that if he dies in it, he'll dress himself neatly in advance." The fat man was stunned.

"It's not the shroud, it's the hunter of the hunter... Forget it, it's not important..." Xiao Ran waved his hands.

Hu Bayi was staring back and forth at the envelope, and suddenly said: "So that's it, this guy is waiting for someone."

As he spoke, he pointed to the envelope to everyone. There were a few traditional characters written on the front of the envelope: Mr. Naimi, from Mr. Naimi.On the seal of the envelope, there is also a wax seal of a nine-petal chrysanthemum.

"Master Namiki? Does it sound so familiar?" the fat man asked.

Xiao Ran thought about it for a while, and suddenly remembered where he had seen this Namki Shaozuo before. He was one of the few devils he saw in the shack in the woods before going to the tomb.

Hu Bayi found a notebook among their relics, which recorded that the group of devils searched for the hidden Kwantung Army base under the leadership of Namiki Shaozuo, but because the only guide was caught in a big smoke bubble, the small group of devils Can only spin around in the woods waiting to die.

So this Onmyoji is lying here, waiting for this Namiki Shaozuo?
Fatty impatiently urged Hu Bayi to open the letter and see what was written inside.The fat man was sure that when these little devils were evacuating, this guy had hidden some treasures, just waiting for this Namiki Shaozuo to come and move away with him.

Hu Bayi didn't say much, and tore open the envelope with a "呵啦".Perhaps the letter had been placed in the coffin for too long, and the chrysanthemum wax seal became a puff of dust, floating in the air.

Hu Bayi shook open the letter paper, and when they saw the words in the letter, they were stunned for a moment.
