Across the Sky From the Stop of Time

Chapter 377: People Light Candles, Ghosts Blow Lamps

"Old Hu, Fatty, I also found a mechanism here." Hao Shuai pointed to the stone bricks with the same pattern on the wall as before, and said, "You all retreat to the outside of the tomb passage, and wait for me to press it down to see if there is any danger. "

"What the magic stick said makes sense, Yingzi, fat man, let's go out first." Hu Bayi, who is cautious by nature, felt that Hao Shuai was right, so he immediately pulled Yingzi and fat man out of the tomb gate.

After Hao Shuai waited for the three of them to go out, he pressed the mechanism with his palm, and at the same time he quickly ran out of the tomb.

All I could hear was the sound of "cracking" from the surrounding walls, and a crisp sound of machine brackets sounded in the tomb.

The next moment, sharp arrows shot out from the reliefs on the four walls, braving a cold light, and the sound of piercing the air resounded throughout the tomb!

Hu Bayi and the others outside the tomb looked at the densely packed arrows, their faces turned pale with fright, and they kept rejoicing in their hearts: Fortunately, Hao Shuai had the foresight to let us withdraw, otherwise everyone would have become hedgehogs at this time.

"Fatty, did you see that you can't touch the things in the ancient tomb, or you will easily kill yourself and others." Hao Shuai took the opportunity to educate Fatty Wang, so that he, a pig teammate who specializes in cheating his teammates, would not always cause trouble.

"Mmm~mm~ I will definitely not mess around in the future." Fatty Wang swallowed hard and promised.

There was a crackling sound, and a coffin slowly rose from the middle of the tomb.

It turned out to be a tomb within a tomb!

Hao Shuai led Fatty and the others in, looking at the mahogany black lacquer coffin, which was painted with strange patterns, which was quite different from the Han nationality.

"Look at the material and the carvings. It is estimated that this general has spent his entire life in the army, and all his belongings are probably in the coffin." Fatty Wang stroked the coffin with both hands, and was about to push open the coffin lid.

"Fatty, what are you doing?" Hu Bayi stopped Fatty Wang who was about to move.

"What are you doing? This good thing is in front of you, don't you want to see it?" Fatty Wang said anxiously.

Hao Shuai looked at Fatty Wang who didn't have a long memory, and said speechlessly: "Fatty, I forgot the lesson just now, and listen to Lao Hu's arrangement."

"Oh~ I was impulsive, Lao Hu, look at this~" Fatty Wang also calmed down after being told by Hao Shuai, and looked at Hu Bayi eagerly.

Hu Bayi ignored Fatty Wang, took out the ancestral compass, compared the directions, walked towards the southeast corner of the tomb, and then said, "Candle."

"Oh, I see, we have to follow the rules." The fat man took out candles and lighters and handed them to Hu Bayi.

After Hu Bayi took it, he carefully lit the candle and slowly placed it on the stone pier in the southeast corner.

"Brother Hu, what are you doing?" Yingzi asked puzzled, unable to understand.

"People light candles, ghosts blow lamps, this is the rule left by our older generation, that is, in the southeast corner of the tomb, first light a candle before opening the coffin, if the candle goes out, you have to evacuate quickly, it is not advisable Take one thing, this is a contract between the living and the dead, and it has been passed down for thousands of years, no exceptions!" Hu Bayi explained with a serious face.

After Hao Shuai heard the so-called rules, he couldn't help but smile in his heart: You even broke into someone's house, and if you don't take something, they will let you go?

Like you burglary. When you were arrested, you explained to the police that we didn't take anything, would the police let you go?

In particular, this ghost blowing lamp world is still a supernatural world, but ghosts really exist. Do you think ghosts will reason with you?

I don't understand the language!

Hao Shuai guessed that this rule was just for psychological comfort.

"Ghost blowing the lamp? Is there really a ghost here?" Yingzi looked at the coffin in the center and shrank.

Although Yingzi is a good hunter, she still can't escape the law that women are afraid of ghosts.

"Don't worry, Yingzi, I'm here, it's fine." Hao Shuai comforted, he couldn't lie to her that there are no ghosts here, after all, there are indeed two little ghosts next door.

"Thank you, Brother Hao." Thinking of Hao Shuai's skill, Yingzi leaned towards Hao Shuai, with a slightly relieved expression on his face.

At this time, Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang had already started to pry the lid of the coffin with tools.

Hao Shuai couldn't help but walked up to the stone platform, stood in front of the coffin, and looked at the coffin expectantly.

To be honest, this was Hao Shuai's first serious tomb robbery, and he was a little excited and looking forward to it. He didn't expect there to be anything valuable in it, he already regarded money as something like that.

Hao Shuai is looking forward to the freshness of being on the scene, thinking about the corpse that will change at any time under the light of dim candles in this gloomy tomb...

Exciting just thinking about it!

With the sound of "creaking" from the coffin, a big crack was finally pried open under the joint efforts of Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang.

Looking at the two people who were struggling to push the coffin lid away, Hao Shuai said, "I'll come, you guys get out of the way."

After Hu Bayi and the two stood up, Hao Shuai slapped the heavy coffin lid on the ground with a loud "bang".

Seeing that the coffin had been opened, Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang hurried forward to take a closer look without caring about Hao Shuai's great strength.

I saw a tall male corpse lying inside, wearing a crown facing the sky, and a rusty mask on his face. The moisture in the corpse had evaporated, leaving only the maroon-purple dry skin wrapped around the skeleton. Nearly a thousand years ago, it has been relatively well preserved.

"What a strong corpse aura? Could it be~~" Hao Shuai reached out and took off the mask on the corpse's face and put it into the space, revealing the corpse's true face instantly.

"Sure enough!" Hao Shuai finally knew why the corpse jumped up.

It turns out that in ancient times, in order to prevent their own graves from being robbed after death, some ruthless people would use witchcraft, Taoism and other means to sacrifice themselves into zombie-like corpses.

It would be fine if no one came to disturb his sleep, but once someone opened the coffin and was stimulated by anger, the corpse would immediately turn into a corpse and kill all the tomb robbers.

However, this kind of corpse spirit also has its disadvantages, that is, it cannot leave its tomb and see the sunlight, otherwise it will be over immediately.

Just as Hao Shuai was stunned, Fatty Wang was already hanging half of his body on the coffin, with both hands stretched into the coffin.

"Fatty, what are you doing?" Hao Shuai was speechless as he looked at Fatty Wang who was dying. His behavior of neither wearing gloves nor a mask is completely activating this zombie!

And even if there are no zombies, isn't he afraid of the virus in the coffin?

It seems that I really need to take the time to teach him how to "scientific", "reasonable" and "effective" tomb robbery.

"Old Hu, god stick, take a look, is it a good thing? Jade." Fatty Wang rubbed on the corpse for a long time, and finally pulled out two pieces of ancient jade, excitedly.

Hao Shuai took the two pieces of emerald green ancient jade carved into the shape of two butterflies and not butterflies in Fatty Wang's hand, and struck him: "The material and appearance of these are average, and they are not worth much."

"Ah? Not worth the money?" Fatty Wang said disappointedly, even Hu Bayi.

"Yes, it can only be sold for a few thousand dollars!" Hao Shuai said honestly.

"Thousands of dollars is not much, is it?" Fatty Wang felt like he was turning around.

"Look at your prospects, you are destined not to make a lot of money in this life." Looking at Fatty Wang and Hu Bayi who are satisfied with only a few thousand yuan, Hao Shuai didn't even bother to despise them.

Just when Fatty Wang was hiding the ancient jade close to his body, the candle in the southeast corner of the tomb suddenly flickered on and off, shook strangely, and then went out with a "poof"!
