Zhang Weiguo suddenly remembered that those companions they had lost in Wuhou's tomb might have been trapped in these coffins?

"But if it was really them, why did they come in here?"

At this time, another archaeologist, Yu Min, who had been silent, spoke.

"Also, it's been nearly a month since they disappeared."

"Even if they are in the coffin, there should be no hope of survival, right?"

Zhang Weiguo was stunned for a moment. Yu Min was right. Even if the person lying inside was their companion, he must have been dead for a long time.

Rather than opening the coffin recklessly, it is better to look for clues around it first.

"In this case, we might as well look outside to see if there are any clues about other companions."

"The archaeological team we are responsible for should have seven people coming in together, but none of them survived."

"If the people talking in this coffin are our classmates, then the other six people should be nearby."

Zhang Weiguo said to others with some excitement.

I don't know if it's because of fear or other reasons.

Then Zhang Weiguo and the others took out their tools and carefully surveyed the area around the coffin.

Zhang Hao just wanted to tell them that he could directly see the situation inside the coffin. However, a pale wrist stretched out from the darkness behind Zhang Hao, and then firmly grabbed Zhang Hao's shoulder.

At this moment, Zhang Hao was startled, and then he drew out his sword and turned around to look behind him.

"Shh~"

As soon as he turned around, Zhang Hao saw Zhuge Qing making a silencing gesture towards him.

Zhang Hao looked at him curiously, not understanding what he meant.

Zhuge Qing came close to Zhang Hao's ear and said quietly:

"I know you have the Daluo Cave Observation and can see clearly what's going on here, but it's best not to expose your ability."

Zhang Hao didn't know what kind of medicine Zhuge Qing bought in his gourd, so he frowned and looked at him.

Zhuge Qing did not speak, but quietly pointed at the two people who were looking for clues.

Zhang Hao glanced at it, then turned his head and asked Zhuge Qing with a smile:

"You mean, there's something wrong with the two of them?"

Zhuge Qing nodded, and then said to Zhang Hao:
"Don't you think these things are a bit too coincidental?"

"Not long after they found Wuhou's tomb, they came to us and said that one of their companions was lost inside, and they wanted to ask us from the Zhuge family for help."

"But when we tried to help them search, they seemed to be no longer in a hurry and kept dragging them back."

"I even had to find an expert to accompany me, so I found you."

"I want to see if there is any way you can find out their details."

Zhang Hao looked at Zhuge Qing speechlessly. He was not a detective, so where could he find so many clues?

Besides, Zhuge Qing only knew about the tomb of Marquis Wu after he told him about it.

Zhang Hao looked at Zhuge Qing seriously, and then asked him:

"Then what you said about Wolong before was just a lie to me?"

Zhuge Qing said to Zhang Hao with an aggrieved look:
"How dare I lie to you? Although I hid something from you before, I can guarantee that all the information I told you is correct."

Zhang Hao nodded doubtfully, and then looked at the two people in the distance.

Are they also here for Wolong?
When I thought about it again, something wasn't quite right.

The two of them had no spiritual energy fluctuations at all, and they looked like ordinary people.In that case, how did they know about the people in the circle, and specifically told Zhuge Qing to find experts to protect them.

After waiting for a long time, Zhang Weiguo came over with some disappointment and said to Zhang Hao:
"Daozhang Zhang, we have searched all around and found no clues about other companions, so do we want to open the coffin of Jiuba now?"

Zhang Hao nodded, not even his Daluo Cave View could see through the situation inside the coffin.

So the only way now is to open the coffin and find out.

After getting Zhang Hao's permission, Zhang Weiguo walked back and worked with Yu Min to lift the coffin board.

However, when they saw the mirror image inside the coffin, they were shocked.

There was a swollen corpse lying inside. The flesh was almost rotten, and the bones inside could be faintly seen through the meat.

The moment he opened the coffin, a strong stench hit his face.

It was so smokey that no one could open their eyes.

Then, after Zhang Weiguo saw the person lying in the coffin, he was so frightened that he couldn't move.

Although the body was so rotten that it was unclear to see what it looked like, judging from the archaeological vest on this person, he must have been their former companion.

"Why on earth did they become like this?"

Zhang Weiguo resisted the feeling of vomiting and began to observe the body lying in the coffin.

What surprised him was that the body seemed incomplete, half of the body was missing, and it looked as if it had been bitten by some wild beast.

Zhang Hao also walked over from behind, glanced at the corpse with a frown, and then stepped back.

"What's the matter, did you find anything?"

Zhuge Qing asked Zhang Hao curiously.

Zhang Hao walked to Zhuge Qing and said to him, "Protect the Dharma for me," and then closed his eyes.

He planned to use the interior of Fenghou Qimen to recreate the scene where the archaeologist was killed.

Instead of trying to find clues bit by bit, it is more convenient to just cheat and look at the cause of the matter.

Zhang Hao opened his eyes again, and the people in front of him had changed.

Became seven strange men.

One of them said to the leader in a panic:
"Brother, are there really monsters in this tomb?"

"What should we do if we are encountered?"

The leader glanced at the timid man with disdain, and then said something.

"Don't come down if you're afraid of death."

"Isn't this what we are here for?"

"This is the tomb of Marquis Wu, the legendary tomb of Zhuge Liang."

"Whatever we find in it will be enough for us to eat for a lifetime."

"What kind of monster is it? You scare yourself."

"This tomb is thousands of years old. If there was a monster, it would have escaped and been discovered by people."

When he mentioned the monster, instead of showing an expression of panic, this man's face showed a look of greed.

Then, the coffin in front of him was opened.

However, the moment he opened it, the man froze in place.
