Don't pretend, anchor, I've seen you touch the golden talisman!

As soon as Lin Yi finished speaking, Wanya below immediately let out a scream.

Bai Lu quickly stepped forward and hugged her shoulders.

"Old Lin, are you kidding me? This man has been dying for more than a month, and yet he can still open the coffin and run away? My little sister is so scared!"

"How long has it been since I was still in the mood to joke with you? If you don't believe me, come up and see for yourself!"

Qin Renjie on the side was pale at the moment, his body was like chaff, and he was grabbing Lin Yi's arm.

"Mr. Lin, you said David opened the lid himself?"

Lin Yi repeatedly touched the broken stubble on the coffin board with his hand and nodded gently.

"Judging from the situation at the scene, this is indeed the case!"

Qin Renjie had personally seen Lin Yi save his nephew, but now he couldn't accept the result.

"David has been dead for a month, why would something like this happen here?"

"We can't draw a conclusion now. We can only wait for Team Qiao to find the two villagers who returned to the cave and ask them what they saw at that time."

Wang Qiang climbed onto the rock from the side, stretched out his hand to touch the break on the coffin board, and then looked into the coffin with his flashlight.

"That's really what happened. It feels like the person lying in the coffin kicked the coffin board open and then climbed out."

The beam of light in his hand swept along where he looked, and two shallow footprints appeared on the ground.

"So far away? How did he fall from the coffin to this position?"

Lin Yi looked in the direction pointed by his flashlight beam.

When Qin Renjie was buried, he was wearing a Western-style burial suit and leather shoes. Judging from the shape of the footprints, they were indeed in the shape of leather shoes.

Walk over and squat down to take a closer look, and you can even vaguely see the logo on the sole.

"They are David's shoes. He likes the shoes from this handmade shoe shop best. I have the impression."

Lin Yi looked back at the coffin behind him. If he climbed up from the coffin and jumped out, he would be at least three meters away from where he was.

Not to mention that the cave was dark with no light and there were piles of coffins around it, so how did he find the precise landing point.

This distance alone is beyond the reach of ordinary people, and it basically reaches the level of national second-level athletes.

"Brother, do you usually have the habit of exercising?"

Lin Yi asked.

"He likes to play golf. In addition, he occasionally plays billiards, swims, etc., and rarely participates in other sports."

It's similar to Lin Yi's estimation, and this playboy is drunk and promiscuous all day long, so he shouldn't have such good physical fitness.

Lin Yi looked up at the top of his head.

"What are you thinking? Do you think someone gave him the wire?"

Wang Qiang came over and looked up with a flashlight, but found nothing.

Suddenly, a sharp cell phone ringtone rang, echoing in this space, frightening everyone.

"Sorry, I forgot to set the vibration mode."

Lin Yi took out his cell phone and saw a call from Team Qiao.

There was a lot of noise from the other end, as if it was at a villager's home.

"Consultant Lin, the two villagers who came back to pick up the tools have been found. According to their memories, when they returned to Dafeng Cave from the hotel, they did find that the lid of Qin Renqian's coffin had been opened and no one else was around."

Everyone around Lin Yi held their breath, listening to Captain Qiao's call.

"But, they said that a black cat was found on the lid of Qin Renqian's coffin." "Black cat?"

Lin Yi's mind suddenly buzzed.

No matter where the funeral customs are, there is an iron rule that after a person dies, the body should not touch the cat.

Otherwise, "fraudulent corpses" may occur.

Some people also analyze from a scientific perspective that cats produce a kind of bioelectricity that reacts with the human body, causing people to move their limbs or eject joints when they have lost consciousness.

Therefore, if the family is doing something mundane and the person watching the funeral shed sees a cat coming, he must drive it away in time.

"It is written in "Theogony" that 'a black cat sitting in a coffin must be ominous'. It is said that a black cat is the incarnation of black impermanence and comes to seduce souls and seek life. Therefore, as long as you see a black cat sitting in a coffin, you must beat him. Death, but that’s for living people!”

Bai Lu has now read through the book "The Genealogy" that Mrs. Sun gave her, and she can now grasp many of its contents at her fingertips.

Lin Yi thought for a moment and replied:
“The reason the black cat sits in the coffin is because in the past, the old man was afraid that no one would take care of him after his death, so he would prepare a birthday gift for himself in advance and put it at home.

If a black cat is found sitting on the coffin lid, it is a sign that the old man is about to die, so the black cat must be killed.

Qin Renqian's "resurrection from the dead" was definitely not because of the "black cat sitting in the coffin", but it was very likely that he "pretended to be dead" because of the appearance of the black cat.

But why does a black cat appear here for no reason?

Lao San, Lao Wang, you two go back and bring our equipment and Wukong.

Judging from the footprints, he went deep into the wind tunnel. Lulu, you go and guard the door now. I'll go in and take a look while Captain Qiao and the two of them come back. "

"Old Lin, don't be brave. Let's go in after I bring my things. If you go in alone now and encounter Zongzi, you can't fight him hand-to-hand, right?"

"You go first, I have discretion."

"Then please pay attention to safety. If anything happens, just run away. We will clean it up together when we come back."

"understood!"

Lin Yi held up a flashlight and followed the footprints into the darkness.

Qin Renqian's footprints would appear every once in a while. The distance between them was about two meters, and both feet must have landed every time.

In other words, every time he moves, it's like doing a standing long jump.

But judging from the depth of his footprints when he landed, it was just a slight step and was not affected by gravity.

The traces of this footprint continued along the long and narrow corridor.

The further inside, the more dilapidated the surrounding scene becomes.

The coffins from an unknown age were in decay and scattered all over the ground. The shelves erected to display the coffins had collapsed. In some places, it looked like the whole thing would collapse if there was even the slightest movement.

From time to time, missing remains can be seen through the gaps in the coffins.

This should be what the old man mentioned before, the burial area of ​​the Miao ancestors in the south of Qingping Town.

According to this, this place should be not far from the burial place of the ancestors of the Southern Miao people that was blocked by stones.

Lin Yi stretched out his hand to pull out the hair mark on his neck, and silently recited: God's blessing, there are no taboos!

Then turn on the flashlight and continue exploring.

After walking for a while, the space became narrower and narrower, almost the same size as a cave dwelling. Some sacrificial utensils appeared in front of it, which should have been used by descendants of Qingping Town to worship their ancestors during festivals.

Behind these utensils appeared a stone wall made of piled stones.

Now, a hole appeared in the stone wall, with some gravel scattered on the ground. The hole was just big enough for an adult to get in.

The footprints that Lin Yi followed all the way disappeared completely. (End of chapter)
