Yin Yang Tomb Raider

Chapter 20 The Third Pieces of Jade

"If the heart is found in the coffin, it will explain my deduction," I said.

Lao Jiu immediately turned around and searched the coffin, but found no heart. My eyes fell on the hands tightly held by the mummy, and I stepped forward to open them. The heart was held between the hands, and, this The finger of the mummy has been broken!
The three of them gasped, and I took a deep breath: "It seems that my inference is [-]% accurate. The finger was broken to leave a message on the back of the coffin lid. As for digging out the heart, I don't know. This person The eyes are still wide open after death, it must be a death without peace, and I don’t know what kind of torture I suffered during my lifetime.”

Lao Jiu's hand suddenly reached into the coffin, and then quickly retracted. This action did not hide from my eyes. I always knew that his hands were quick. When he met my eyes, Lao Jiu just smiled and made a gesture to me— — I'll talk about it later.

Tao Ran walked around the coffin several times. Suddenly, her stomach growled. She was already hungry and tired after tossing around for a long time. I rummaged in my backpack. There was not much food and water left. We sat on the ground , each ate some dry food and drank a little water, Tao Ran was obviously tired, leaning against the rock wall and fell asleep immediately, as always, her sleeping appearance was much gentler.

Meng Luo also fell asleep beside him, Lao Jiu finally breathed a sigh of relief, dragged me to a corner, took out something from his arms, spread it out, and the thing lay in his palm, quietly, But it made me feel that five thunders struck the top, that was the third piece of broken jade!
Seeing the look in my eyes, Lao Jiu smiled, and when I stretched out my hand, he immediately put away the broken jade: "Old rules, what I find, of course, belongs to me."

"You cunning old fox." I snorted, "I've been trapped underground for more than a year, but my brain is still working."

"You and that boy named Mengluo will not come here for no reason." Lao Jiu said: "Just now you saw the lines on the coffin lid, and your face changed too fast, Lin Tianyi, you are a businessman, and you know best How can you break the merits without showing your anger? It seems to be a very big thing, how about it? Like I invited before, let's work together."

My face twitched, and this long-lost invitation came out again. Lao Jiu needed a companion, and I became his carefully selected candidate. For various considerations, I kept rejecting his proposal. Now is not the past, this is decapitation However, his proposal again today gave me a new idea, because the third piece of broken jade is in his hands, and getting there first gave him enough bargaining chips.

Meng Luo suddenly opened his eyes: "This is destiny, the three of us are destined to be on the same boat."

I looked at Tao Ran vigilantly, and even walked over to push her. She was really asleep. After confirming this, I was relieved and turned my head to look at Mengluo: "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure." Munro said: "Everyone who appears may become a participant. After leaving here, we should have a good chat."

Lao Jiu let out a muffled snort. I could see that the old fox still had some words to say. He didn't believe Meng Luo, "What we should consider now is how to get out of here, and the man who died here, he Who is it? Judging from the dryness of the clothing and corpse, Lin Tianyi, what is your opinion."

Ancient clothing has its own characteristics in different dynasties. The clothes worn by this person belong to Han clothing, and it is a style that prevailed in the early years of the Han Dynasty. It has cross collars, right lapels, and knots with ropes. It also has a Qin style. The third piece of broken jade that Shang Laojiu found from this corpse, I have basically come to a conclusion: "This person is from the end of Qin Dynasty and the beginning of Han Dynasty."

Munro's eyes lit up, and he rubbed his hands together, so excited, Munro is such a careful look, I thought of the things Munro told me.

"Xiang Yu knew that he was in danger, but he still didn't give up. He hoped that one day he could make a comeback, so he transferred all the treasures of Xichu to his six cronies. In order to facilitate his search in the future, and to avoid being stolen, he took A piece of jade, with mysterious characters engraved on it, and then divided into seven pieces, he and six cronies each hold a piece, only to wait for the reunion in the future, get the treasure, and make a comeback!"

This person has broken jade hidden on his body, and it is in line with the characteristics of the dynasty. It is hard not to let me think about it, but I have a question in my mind. In a coffin?

Lao Jiu suddenly clung to my ear: "The broken jade is hidden in his body, so I won't go deep into it. Think about it, where else can a man hide something?"

I almost vomited, Lao Jiu smiled: "So, thank me, I took it out myself."

Meng Luo looked at us suspiciously, probably impatient to know what we were talking about, I coughed lightly, and suddenly thought of the mantra of my grandpa—Iron horses traveled in the desert back then, and when I returned thousands of miles, I would meet two dragons!

When the iron horse traveled in the desert, the two dragons met when they returned from thousands of miles!The second dragon of the return meeting of thousands of miles refers to the words of me and Meng Luo, so what does it mean that the iron horse toured the desert back then? Grandpa Gan said that our first stop was indeed the desert!

I took out the kettle to drink water, and suddenly found that there was an inscription on the bottom of the kettle, and a desert rose was carved on it, and I was taken aback for a moment. He coughed heavily and scolded: "Mother, after staying here for a long time, my throat doesn't feel like my own anymore."

Lao Jiu, who was speaking normally just now, is now hoarse. I looked at this tomb. It is not so much a tomb as it is just a place for corpses. There is no burial, no elegant tomb decorations, even the stone walls are Roughly made, this place can come in and out.

I stood up and started walking around, knocking stones on the stone wall and the ground from time to time. The hole is the most important thing in the ground. As long as I find the hole, there are infinite possibilities inside. The layout of the mechanism must penetrate the air. They didn't let it go, the movement even woke up Tao Ran, she just woke up a little confused: "What are you doing?"

"Find a way out." I said, "You don't think that we are freed from the predicament just now, do you?"

"I'm not that naive yet." Tao Ran said angrily. She took out the gun and sighed: "There's only one bullet left. It's hard to explain when I go back this time."

I rolled my eyes: "There is a way for you to explain, do you know about an old case?"

"What case?" Tao Ran said angrily.

"A long-distance bus was robbed ten years ago. There were seven people involved in the crime. Six people were killed and two people were seriously injured. These seven people fled into the desert and have never been seen again." I smiled and said, "You saved us." One life, it’s okay to tell you, when you first rescued us, those people were the murderers.” I winked at her: “Do you know what it means?”

The corners of Tao Ran's mouth immediately relaxed, and the depression just now disappeared. Although no one from the archaeological team was rescued, an old case was solved, and catching these murderers was a great achievement. Have a face and go back to the police station.

I don't know about other places, but the black pool is the best coordinate. If you find that place and search nearby, you will definitely be able to find the whereabouts of those thugs. In this way, Tao Ran has made a contribution, and he is rewarded with an arrow. revenge.

Thinking of the archaeological team, Tao Ran’s excitement immediately disappeared when he just got up. This time he was caught underground and did not see other people. It seemed that he was forcibly grounded and unable to see. Tao Ran sighed: When will you let the archaeological team go?"

"Those people only have two months, which is the time to watch the most strictly." Lao Jiu is someone who has been there, and he knows the inside story very well: "It will take at least half a year before they can move freely under guard. As for letting go, hehe, I'm afraid Impossible."

Tao Ran's face froze. It was completely different from those gangsters. They were completely hidden under the yellow sand, and they couldn't find where they were. This disappearance case was destined to become an unsolved case.

I tried every place, but I couldn't find a place with a hole. I muttered that it didn't make sense, so my eyes fell on the coffin. There is a certain reason for the placement of the coffin. I stared at the traces on the ground, took a breath suddenly, and lay down on the ground to see that there was something under the coffin, which was not directly placed on the ground, because the thing underneath was thin, which caused a visual gap. The illusion, I immediately waved to Lao Jiu: "Lao Jiu, come and have a look."

I asked Lao Jiu to try to move the coffin with me. The coffin was still a nanmu coffin and it was very heavy. It took some effort for the two of them to move it aside. There was actually a disc under the coffin!
