Chapter 458 Hidden Mystery



Ten people walked towards the coffin excitedly.

When passing by the incense burner table, someone even sneered:

"You know what, this place is quite well decorated, even the incense burner is provided.

If it were someone else, they might actually believe it.”

Seeing this, the others laughed out loud with disdain.

Some people even waved their hands and swept the incense burner to the ground.

"It's made of broken brass and has turned black. It's really an eyesore!"

No one else cared either.

After all, there are ten boxes of gold, silver and jewelry waiting for them ahead. Who would care about this worthless brass?

There were exactly ten coffins, and ten people each opened one.

With excitement in their hearts, the ten people looked at each other, then lifted the coffin lid with both hands and exerted force suddenly.

All I heard was a "swish" sound.

The coffin lid was opened.

They couldn't wait to lower the coffin lid and put their heads in to see what treasures were inside.

Everyone has selfish desires and definitely wants to hide the best things secretly.

Shi Yan finally came back to his senses at this time.

He figured it out. He would rather all the Shi family treasures disappeared than fall into the hands of these people.

So now he was also curious about what was in the coffin.

He kept staring at the movements of those ten people.

But almost the moment they reached in, they all burst into screams of terror, their voices breaking.

“Ahhh…”

He threw the coffin lid away and retreated frantically.

It was not until everyone retreated to the corner and huddled together that they felt a little safer.

Someone said in shock:

"That, that actually is a coffin for a dead person!"

Some people were trembling with fear.

"Did we offend anyone by doing that just now?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the person who had just smashed the incense burner turned pale with fright.

He crawled on his knees to pick up the incense burner, held it in his arms, carefully wiped off the ash with his clothes, and then carefully placed the incense burner back on the table.

He also kowtowed several times in front of the incense burner to apologize.

Seeing this, the others immediately put their hands together and kept muttering.

"Buddha bless you, don't be surprised if there are any strange things!"

"We didn't mean to interrupt!"

Seeing that these people were so scared that they started to talk nonsense, Shi Yan walked forward curiously, wanting to see what was in these coffins.

Could it really be the corpse of a dead person?

Lin Ran wanted to stop him but failed.

Sure enough, Yan's face changed when he saw inside.

He wanted to step back immediately, but when his peripheral vision caught sight of the bones, he felt something was wrong.

If there really is a corpse inside, even if it is very old, it is impossible that only a clean skeleton is left, right?

Just when Shi Yan was lost in thought, someone noticed him and immediately started to question him.

"Shi family boy, we clearly asked you about the secret place where the treasure is hidden, why did you bring us in here?"

The man was halfway through his speech when he immediately lowered his voice, fearing that his voice was too loud and would disturb the ghost.

"You are disturbing people's rest!

Tell me, did you bring us in here on purpose to harm us?"

Shi Yan had just caught a glimpse of something strange when his thoughts were interrupted and he could no longer continue with his previous speculation.

Besides, he didn't have time to think about it right now.

He raised his eyes and looked coldly at the speaker.

"I've already told you there's no such thing as Shi's hidden treasure. It's just you who don't believe it."

The man still didn't believe it.

"Then why did you bring us to this damn place?"

"Aren't you the ones who are forcing me to reveal the secret room of the Shi family, no matter what's inside it?"

The ten people recalled and exchanged glances with each other, and then they finally remembered.

It seems that they really used Lin Ran to threaten Shi Yan, asking him to tell them the location of the secret room in the Shi family.

But even if this was true, they could not accept that the so-called secret room of the Shi family did not contain gold, silver or jewelry, but instead contained ten coffins.

Is this something a normal person can do?

This secret room was designed to be so secretive.

They thought it was used to hide some big treasure.

What should I do now?

If the Shi family didn’t even use such a secret place to hide things, then does the so-called Shi family treasure really exist?

Could it be that the person above made a mistake?

They wasted so many years and it was all in vain.

Everyone looked at each other in surprise.

Just when these people were doubting their lives, Lin Ran had quietly walked to Shi Yan's side.

She gestured toward the exit.

Shi Yan immediately understood and nodded.

The two of them first moved slowly outwards, and when they were almost at the stone gate, someone finally discovered them.

"Oh no, they're trying to run, catch them!"

It happened in the blink of an eye.

Shi Yan directly pulled Lin Ran up and ran out of the stone chamber in two steps. Then he quickly tapped the stone wall next to him a few times, and the stone door closed with a "boom".

The whole action is done in one go.

The group of people watched helplessly as the stone door closed in front of them, just one step away from them.

Just one step, just one step!

Everyone was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

"what to do?

Are we being held here?"

"You won't be able to get out, right?

There's nothing in here, no food or drink.

Aren’t we going to starve to death in here?”

Someone suddenly remembered.

“I remember the boy from the Shi family seemed to just tap the wall a few times and the door opened.
