"Just show them this document. This is an order from our superiors, and we are just following orders. Although we don't expect them to show mercy just because they eat our food, they won't go against the country, right?"

She paused, then instructed, "Also, go find out more about our leader's background. I always feel that this matter is a little strange, but I can't tell what's wrong."

Dapeng nodded in agreement, and was about to reach out to take the documents and leave, but was stopped by Chen Wenjin: "Don't take the documents, I'll keep them. You don't have to go to the dinner tonight, just entertain them well. If they are discovered, I will handle the follow-up matters!"

Dapeng nodded again, put down the documents and walked to the door, then turned around and asked, "Okay, Captain Chen, I'll go find the chef to prepare it. By the way, can the cost of this meal be reimbursed?"

……

Six hours passed quietly.

At this time, Chen Wenjin was already standing on the other side of the river in the Sanjiashan River Basin, with a crane and equipment for salvaging coffins ready behind him.

She looked at the dimly lit Sanjiashan Village from afar, feeling anxious, and muttered to herself, "Why is there still no news about Dapeng? Could he have really drunk himself to death?"

As she was anxiously waiting, a worker's voice came from behind her: "Captain Chen, when are we going to start? Didn't we say we'll start the salvage tonight? I have things to do at home!"

Chen Wenjin knew that the workers had been waiting for three hours, and she couldn't help but feel a little apologetic. She turned around and said to comfort them: "I know everyone is busy, but this mission is special, please be patient and wait."

At this time, a worker jumped down from the crane, walked to the riverside and glanced at the river surface, then turned to look at Chen Wenjin: "Captain Chen, I heard that last time you were fishing for coffins here, you encountered the Water Dragon King and the Corpse Dragon sucking water? Some people also said that they saw the Black and White Impermanence. Is this true?"

Chen Wenjin shook her head helplessly. The last experience was still vivid in her mind, but those extraordinary phenomena still made it difficult for her to explain.

She could only say: "It's not as exaggerated as you think. But I can tell you that there are dangers in this water. There is a creature called corpse sting, which is transparent and difficult to detect. The toxin in its body can paralyze the nerves. So you must be careful when you go into the water, and don't let anything unexpected happen!"

Although the workers appeared to be indifferent after hearing this, there was a hint of vigilance in their eyes.

Just then, Chen Wenjin's cell phone suddenly rang.

She quickly took out her phone and saw a message from Dapeng: "Captain Chen, everything is done here, we can start!"

Chen Wenjin responded quickly and turned to look at the construction team behind him: "Alright! We can start working now! Everyone must keep quiet, especially drivers, don't honk! This is a desolate mountain area, the sound of the horn will be particularly harsh!"

As Chen Wenjin's instructions were given, the workers immediately took action and the atmosphere became heated.

Chen Wenjin looked at the busy workers, but she did not relax in her heart.

She was well aware of the difficulty and complexity of this mission, especially the need to prevent the villagers of Sanjiashan Village from discovering her.

However, what she was most worried about at the moment was not the interference of the villagers, but the mysterious dragon coffin.

She was still frightened by the strange things that happened when Zhang Hao was fishing for a corpse here last time.

The dragon sucking water, the corpse evil, the water dragon king and the weird Black and White Impermanence...these images appeared in her mind again.

Although she specifically asked her superiors for underwater operation equipment to prevent people from directly contacting the dragon coffin this time, the uneasiness in her heart did not dissipate.

She knew very well that once the dragon coffin was salvaged, it would likely cause unpredictable phenomena again.

While she was thinking, the crane driver reported to her: "Captain Chen, everything is ready!"

Chen Wenjin took a deep breath and nodded: "Okay, let's start!"

As the crane driver pressed the button and pulled the operating lever, the underwater dragon coffin began to move slowly.

However, at this moment, a thunder suddenly sounded in the sky: "Boom!"

Chen Wenjin suddenly looked up at the sky and was shocked.

As there was no moon and the sky was overcast tonight, she had not noticed the change in the weather until the thunder rumbled and a flash of lightning split the night sky, and then she realized that the sky had turned overcast.

"How could this happen?" Chen Wenjin stared at the sky with wide eyes in disbelief, and took out her cell phone to check the weather forecast.

The forecast clearly said it would be sunny and there would be no rain for the next seven days.

An ominous premonition arose in her heart: Could it really be this dragon coffin that is causing trouble?

The people on the construction team didn't seem to care about the thunder and continued with the salvage work.

However, Chen Wenjin could not ignore this strange phenomenon. She looked at the river and prayed in her heart: I hope everything goes well!

Normally, even if you lift five or six extra-large cement pipes, you will never feel it is so heavy!
"Hey!" The crane driver muttered unwillingly, "I really don't believe it!" He said angrily, "It's just a coffin, what tricks can it play on me!"

Before he finished speaking, he gripped the joystick again and adjusted the horsepower to the limit without hesitation.

This time, one could vaguely feel that the weight of the dragon coffin had been reduced.

Just as the crane driver was secretly relieved and thought everything was going well, a flash of lightning suddenly streaked across the sky.

"Boom!" The sound was deafening, and the lightning seemed to hit the surface of the river with great precision.

A dazzling white light flashed before everyone's eyes, and then Chen Wenjin's worries became heavier.

She began to waver. Could it be that the warning from the Yin-Yang Master had really come true? Was this coffin really not to be touched?

However, she had no time to think about it at this moment.

The orders from her superiors were like mountains, and she was just an executor.

What's more, this dragon coffin is of great significance for archaeological research, and she herself is eager to salvage it ashore.

"Alas!" Chen Wenjin sighed and prayed in her heart, "I hope that this time we can retrieve the coffin safely, and then send it back after the research is completed."

At the same time, Sanjiashan Village presented a completely different scene.

At the entrance of the village, the old people were drinking happily. Everyone's face was flushed and their steps became unsteady.

Although everyone realized that Dapeng might have other purposes for his return this time, they were too embarrassed to ask more questions since they had eaten his food.

What's more, Dapeng solemnly promised at the dinner table that he would never touch a single blade of grass or a single tree in Sanjiashan Village when he returned this time.

However, after three rounds of drinking, a villager went to the riverside to relieve himself and happened to encounter thunder. Under the reflection of lightning, he vaguely saw a huge crane on the opposite side of the river dragging something in the river.

Although I couldn't see clearly what it was, I could guess that the crane was no good.

The villager suddenly sobered up, ran back to the village entrance in a hurry, and shouted loudly to the village chief from afar.

"Village Chief! Village Chief! Something big has happened! Someone is trying to move the dragon coffin!"

The sudden shout instantly woke up the people who were about to leave.

Immediately afterwards, a sudden heavy rain poured down.

"What's going on? Why is it raining suddenly?" someone asked in confusion.

"Yeah, doesn't the weather forecast say that it won't rain in the next half month?" another person echoed.

At this time, some people had not heard the shocking news yet and were looking at the sky in confusion; while some people had already heard the sound of the wind and slammed the table and stood up.

"What? Someone wants to move the dragon coffin?"

"Is it the dragon coffin at the bottom of the river?"

The village chief's face suddenly became serious. He looked towards the river, feeling a strong sense of uneasiness.

Mr. Yin Yang once clearly warned that this dragon coffin must not be moved.

Otherwise, the scattered dragon energy will bring disaster to people nearby. The director of the archaeological team who didn't believe in superstition is a living example.

Because he refused to listen to advice, he is still lying in a mental hospital.

Now, when he heard that someone was trying to retrieve the coffin again, the village chief stood up and shouted loudly without saying a word: "Young and old men! Someone is trying to move our dragon coffin, we can't just sit there and watch! Come on, follow me and see what's going on!"

"If someone really wants to take this dragon coffin away, Mr. Yin Yang has said that everyone in our village will be troubled by the dragon energy! Do you think they can take this dragon coffin away?"

After saying that, the village chief didn't wait for the villagers to respond, he just picked up the dung fork next to the yard and rushed out.

The villager who reported the news followed closely behind him, came to the riverside, pointed to the opposite bank and said: "Village chief, I saw it when I was peeing here just now. When it thundered, I saw a crane on the opposite side of the river. I don't know what it was doing."

"I thought they were definitely not here to fish, after all, you don't need a crane to fish! I then thought, isn't this the location of the Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin that Mr. Yin Yang mentioned? So they might be here to move the Zhenjiang Dragon Coffin."

The village chief nodded in agreement, and then said, "Some time ago, many people did come here to look for treasures, but they left without finding anything. Now people in the surrounding villages know about our situation, so no one dares to take the coffin."

"Now that a crane has arrived, it must be trying to move the Zhenjiang ancient coffin. If he takes the coffin away, we won't be able to survive!"

After saying this, the village chief jumped onto his own fishing boat and rowed towards the other side of the river.

At this time, the villagers were so frightened by the news that they sobered up.

No one wants the last disaster to happen again. After all, there is a lesson learned from the past. Moving the coffin will anger the gods.

So the villagers went home, picked up tools such as rakes and axes, and then all rushed to the river.

After seeing the village chief rowing over, they also jumped onto their own fishing boats and rowed towards the other side of the river.

Dapeng was lying on the table pretending to be drunk, but his eyes were rolling around. He thought to himself, "Damn, it's so dark, so far away, how can they see the crane? Do these people have sharp eyes?"

"This is bad! We need to send a message to Captain Chen immediately, otherwise we will be in real trouble soon."

"I have to retreat quickly. If I'm exposed, these villagers will come back and bury me!"

Thinking about this, Dapeng looked around quietly and found that no one was paying attention to him at this time.

So he quietly took out his phone and sent a message to Chen Wenjin: "Captain Chen, this is bad. The villagers have found out."

After sending the message, Dapeng looked around carefully again, then quietly left Sanjiashan Village and ran towards the other side of the river bank.

Chen Wenjin, who was standing on the opposite bank of the river, was wondering why there were so many spots of light on the river. She frowned in confusion, and then the phone in her pocket rang.

She took out her phone and took a look. Her heart sank immediately. "It was discovered so soon? The actual situation is even worse than I thought!"

After saying that, she walked back to the crane, looked at the crane operator who was still busy, and asked loudly, "Master, how long will it take to fish it out?"

The crane driver also looked at Chen Wenjin in confusion and replied, "I don't know. The coffin is too heavy. We couldn't get it out even at full power. It must be too deep in the mud. It will take a while!"

Chen Wenjin shook her head helplessly. She knew that time was running out, but the villagers of Sanjiashan Village might not give them too much time.

She guessed that the light spots on the river should be the villagers of Sanjiashan Village.

As expected, when the crane stopped for a few seconds, shouts came from the river: "Stop! Stop now! What are you doing? Who told you to come here to salvage? Leave quickly, or don't blame us for fighting you to the death!"

Hearing these faint but increasingly clear sounds, the construction team members couldn't help but stop their work and look towards the river.

Then they saw a small fishing boat approaching the shore, and the person walking down from it was the village chief.

The village chief came over and shouted, "What are you doing? Who told you to do this? Who is your boss? Call him out!"

Chen Wenjin touched her forehead helplessly, she knew that what was coming had finally come. So she walked over and greeted the village chief: "Hello, village chief, we are from the Archaeological Association, I am Chen Wenjin, we have met before."

"Chen Wenjin?" The village chief frowned, his cloudy eyes secretly wondering where he had heard this familiar name.

Soon he remembered, wasn't that the captain of the archaeological team when Mr. Yin Yang came before? He had been rejected several times before.

"It's you!" The village chief suddenly realized, and then looked at Chen Wenjin unceremoniously, "Since we have met, you should know what is in this river, right? Didn't you suffer enough last time? I remember that someone in your team tried to take this ancient coffin last time, and two people died, and another one became a madman, right?"

Chen Wenjin smiled bitterly and nodded: "That's true, but the two who died had nothing to do with Jiang Li. It was a murder case. As for the crazy one, the specific cause has not been found out yet."

The village chief didn't believe Chen Wenjin's words at all. He snorted coldly and said, "Hmph! Don't tell me this, an old man. I don't want to hear it. Just tell me directly, what do you want to do this time? If you want to move the ancient coffin, then give up the idea as soon as possible. I tell you directly, it's impossible! And the people of Sanjiashan Village will never let you take it away!" (End of this chapter)
