Onmyoji's Secret

Chapter 65 Open the coffin

I was suddenly startled, right in front of me, in front of the white coffin that had gone through so many ages, two monkeys and a few ghosts were staring at me, their faces were full of surprise and strangeness .

Is everything just now really just an illusion, but this white coffin actually exists, I stretched out my hand and rubbed my eyes, this is the third white coffin I have seen.

The first one was dug out under the Snake King Temple and turned into a snake skin, the second one was seen in the Qingyi Qiang Castle, and the third one exists in the ancient Shu ruins. I don't know if there is any connection between these three white coffins, but the woman named Ruochu was put into these three white coffins with the same appearance one after another.

The ancient Shu, the ancient Qiang, and our Chen family are connected to each other through white coffins, women, and bronze masks. What my grandfather said was planned by the Chen family for more than 300 years is far from being as simple as he said Perhaps it was just an external thing to seize the national destiny of Qingyi Ancient Qiang. The real purpose of the Chen family was more than that. Chen Shengzhi, this man surrounded by mysteries, what exactly did he want to do?
"Hmph, this little bastard is indeed related to the original ancient Shu Kingdom, maybe it is really a descendant of the ancient Shu royal family!" The golden monkey king stood in front of the white coffin, looking at me with a pair of red eyes, the expression on his face Something weird.

I was stunned, and quickly said: "I am not a descendant of the ancient Shu royal family, I am from the Chen family, how could I have anything to do with the ancient Shu kingdom."

In fact, I don't know what kind of relationship our Chen family has with this mysterious ancient Shu country, but at the moment surrounded by these ghosts and monsters, I have to put aside the connection immediately, otherwise, judging by their appearance, I will definitely not Will there be any good moves for me, and it is very likely that they will use me to do something. ,
"Hehe, little guy, can you tell me what exactly you saw just now, and you have been acting strangely since you entered this hall. If there is nothing wrong with you, do you think we will believe it? Is it?" The Youyou Ghost on the side said with a smile, look, the two dark eyes made me a little scared, this old thing is a typical smiling tiger, and he might get into the trap if he is not careful.

I was shocked when I heard You Yougui's words. It turned out that everything I did after I entered this hall was seen by them. All of us were in the same place, but the illusion just now was only I can see it, but none of them seem to realize it. Is this the effect of the phoenix imprint on my left shoulder?

I have a faint realization in my heart. I am afraid that the mysterious power contained in the phoenix mark will allow me to see things and scenes related to it many years ago when I encounter some special things. It has no other effect, I didn't discover it, but since Chen Shengzhi left the ancestor's precept back then, saying that the Chen family should wait for a child with the mark of a phoenix bird on his body, there may be other secrets hidden in this mark.

"Okay, there are some things that need to be stopped." The Lord General of the Yin Army suddenly stood in front of me, and he said lightly to the ghosts in front of him.

You Yougui smiled and said: "Mr. Zhang, you have also seen what happened to this little thing just now. If you say that he has no connection with this ancient Shu site, would you believe it? You have been dead for 300 years. What are you doing with this little guy from the human race? If you catch him and study it, you might be able to get some secrets about the ancient Shu Kingdom.”

As soon as You Yougui finished speaking, the white-clothed corpse king, Minjiang water girl and others all looked at me. The scorching light in their eyes made me extremely uncomfortable.

"It's not your turn to teach me what I want to do. Don't you want to get the treasure of the ancient Shu Kingdom that has been rumored for thousands of years? Now that this thing is right in front of your eyes, why do you still have the time to pay attention to this doll?" Yin Soldier The general said, pointing to the white coffin not far away, with a trace of mockery in his words.

I just attracted their attention because of my extremely weird behavior after entering the hall. These ghosts and monsters turned their attention to me, but ignored the white coffin on the side. Immediately, he refocused on the white coffin.It's just that the moment the golden monkey king turned around, he glanced at me, his face full of extreme resentment.

This damn monkey really holds a grudge!
I cursed secretly, the golden monkey king probably still has a grudge against me for stealing his jiaozhu, if it wasn't for the lord of the Yin soldiers to protect me, he might be the first to rush up and kill me.

The corpse king in white was the first to pounce in front of the white coffin. He stretched out his hand and put it on the coffin cover covered with white scales, rubbing it lightly, with excitement and longing on his face.

"Corpse King wait a minute!" Seeing that the corpse king in white was the first to run over and was about to open the coffin lid, You Yougui yelled quickly, stopping the corpse king from moving.

"What do you want! I want to order this thing!"

The corpse king in white turned his head and stood in front of the white coffin, looking coldly at the approaching ghosts, his face was full of vigilance, and he assumed an attacking posture.

As soon as the words of the corpse king in white came out, the faces of all the people present changed.From the very beginning, everyone searched for the treasure in the legend of the ancient Shu Kingdom together, avoiding the issue of distribution. After all, there is only one treasure, but there are so many people who want it. These ghosts and monsters are all cunning and cunning. , Before seeing something, they also deliberately avoided this problem, each with their own calculations in their hearts.

But now, the corpse king in white stands in front of the white coffin, making it clear that he is swallowing the contents of it all to himself, and directly puts on the table a problem that everyone has deliberately avoided. This time, the conflict is completely intensified.

"Hehe, corpse king, do you want to swallow it all by yourself? Don't forget that this king brought you here. Without my monkey clan, how can you find this thing?" The golden monkey king looked at the corpse king and sneered. , stretched out the golden long stick in his hand, and pointed it at the corpse king, as if he was about to start a fight if he didn't agree with each other.

The mandrill of the golden monkey king also yelled at the corpse king, and said angrily, "You dead zombie doesn't care what you are, can you get this treasure of the ancient Shu kingdom? I don't know how many people have died. Zombies who were born in [-], are trying to use treasures to revive them, it's wishful thinking!"

After hearing the mandrill's words, the white corpse king's expression changed instantly, his eyes burst into a dazzling red light, and his eyes were full of killing intent when he looked at the mandrill.What the mandrill said just hit his sore spot. The reason why he was so enthusiastic and excited about finding this ancient Shu treasure was because he wanted to use this treasure that was said to be able to resurrect the dead to get rid of the zombie body and resurrect him into a human. Although the treasure is just a legend that has been passed down for thousands of years, and the function of bringing the dead back to life is more likely to be an affiliation of later generations, it is also a hope after all, a corpse king that can make the white corpse king give everything.

The mandrill was stared at by the corpse king in white, and immediately backed away in fright. He had suffered a lot from the corpse king in the monkey clan palace, and he had already left a little shadow in his heart.

"Hmph, corpse king, don't go too far!" Minjiang Shuinu also stepped forward, threatening the white-clothed corpse king.

I was a little stunned, it only took a moment, and the ghosts and monsters who were united just now turned their faces directly. These people are really unreliable.However, when I thought that they turned their faces because of the treasure that might appear in the white coffin, I also felt a little speechless, because if I guessed correctly, the so-called treasure of the ancient Shu Kingdom was the woman named Ruochu.

But that Ruochu ran into the ancient castle of Qingyi Qiang thousands of years ago, and was discovered by my ancestor Chen Shengzhi during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, and was taken down the mountain and buried under the Snake King Temple.When I was ten years old, following the forced demolition of the Snake King Temple by Li Dao Scar and others, the white coffin was opened by Li Dao Scar, and Ruochu, who was naked inside, also turned into flying ash with a gust of wind. The treasure of the ancient Shu Kingdom that has existed for thousands of years no longer exists in this world.

I looked at the white coffin standing quietly among those ghosts, and thought to myself, I am afraid that there is nothing in this coffin now, and these ghosts may be empty after all.

I glanced at the ghosts not far away who seemed to be in a state of negotiation and compromise.I hurried to the side of the chief general of Yin Bing, tiptoed into his ear and said: "Mr. Zhang, this coffin is empty, and the things have been taken away a long time ago. Before they find out, let's go quickly." Bar."

After hearing my words, the general of the Yin army did not move his body, but his head covered by the mist moved, and his eyes, which were faintly visible in the ghostly aura, looked at me sharply.

I was startled, and I didn't dare to look at the eyes of the Yin soldier's leader.The reason why I want to tell this news to the Yin Bing general is also a small calculation in my heart. Now that the white coffin shows that there is nothing, it is just because these ghosts are fighting for it and have no time to take care of it. When they negotiate or fight After the winner is decided, the coffin will naturally be opened.

At that time, when they discover the secret in this coffin, I will be finished. After the illusion just now, these ghosts have already determined that I have a connection with this ancient Shu site, and they will never let go of the empty coffin once they open it. Those who have passed me will definitely arrest me for various interrogations.And when the time comes, I don't know if this Yin soldier will protect me anymore, after all, he seems to be interested in the treasures of the ancient Shu kingdom.

That's why I decided to tell the Lord Yin Bing in advance after thinking about it for a while. As long as he can take me away, even if he asks me about Na Ruochu after leaving, I will tell him the truth. After all, he also saved me. Many times, I still have a trace of gratitude to him in my heart.

The Yin soldier general looked at me for a long time, black mist drifted around his body, and his eyes shone with light, as if he was thinking about what I just said.It wasn't until he saw that I was almost burning with anxiety that he nodded and said to me lightly, "Let's go."

I was overjoyed immediately, and hurriedly followed him to the outside of the hall. Now I can't wait to put on my wings and rush out of the hall at once.

But just as I was about to step down from the altar with the Lord Yin Bing, some ghosts and monsters over there seemed to have reached an agreement. I saw the corpse king in white inserting his hands into the gap in the white coffin, shouting loudly, with both hands The entire coffin lid was lifted directly.

"It's over! It's over!"

I groaned in my heart, now they will definitely find that the white coffin is empty, and they will definitely rush to me in anger, arrest me and ask where the things in the coffin are. Can the general protect me, without the female ghost in red beside me, I don't think the general of the Yin soldier can defeat the ghosts and monsters in front of him alone.

Just when I was depressed and worried, there was an unbelievable sound of surprise from the white coffin over there, and I heard the mandrill standing behind the golden monkey king say loudly: "How is it possible! How could it be a human being?" Skin!"

I stood on the edge of the altar and listened to the mandrill's words, and I was taken aback, human skin?What human skin?
Isn't that Ruochu in the white coffin?And Ruochu had been turned into fly ash on the day the Snake King Temple was demolished, so the white coffin in front of him should be empty.

I couldn't care less about everything at the moment, so I ran up to the altar with two legs apart, walked quickly to the white coffin, and looked inside.

I was stunned immediately!
I call him an ancestor!
This is really a piece of human skin, and why does this human skin look so familiar to me?
