A soldier discovered that the coffin was not sealed with iron nails, but with difficult-to-open wooden nails. It was made with special craftsmanship and the seams were tightly sealed. Once the coffin was closed, it could not be opened without a skilled person.
So he went over and reported, "Deputy General Xiao, the coffin isn't sealed with iron nails, but with wooden falconry. The only way to open it is to smash it."
At this time, firecrackers were heard in the distance.
There were three explosions.
A middle-aged man came over with a middle-aged woman.
The middle-aged woman cried out, "Sir, my son is marrying someone who has just passed away tonight. This does not violate the laws of Dayan! Sir!"
Hearing the words "just passed away", Lu Zhenzhi's eyes narrowed slightly. Somehow, his mind flashed back to the scene of Fu Tong'er hugging his thighs and saying, "This big brother is so handsome! I want to marry him when I grow up."
The man who was supporting the woman said, "Mother, I think the official is looking for someone. Let's open the coffin. Your son will understand."
Lu Zhenzhi frowned slightly, doubtful.
The middle-aged woman nodded, called the workers, broke the wooden frame of the coffin, and opened the coffin.
When both coffins were opened, they were filled with clothes!
Deputy General Xiao dismounted and searched the two coffins for clothes and miscellaneous items, but found no body.
Suddenly, he felt something was amiss and pointed his sword at the woman, shocking her: "You said it was a ghost marriage, but why is there no corpse? What are you trying to do? Tell the truth!"
The woman knelt down in terror and said, "My son died a tragic death. His body is not intact, and only his favorite clothes are left. Sir, how can he rest in peace when you mess up his coffin like this?"
Deputy General Xiao snorted and laughed: "What nonsense! Why is the woman's coffin also empty? Could it be that she also died without a complete body?"
The woman said, "This woman was my son's cousin. Because of my son's misfortune, she committed suicide by jumping into the river. Our body was never found. I thought that lovers would finally be together, so I built a tomb for them so that they could be together in the underworld... I never thought..."
Lu Zhenzhi narrowed his eyes slightly, then suddenly whipped his horse and left quickly!
Xiao Pu hurriedly mounted his horse and shouted, "Master! Master!"
Lieutenant General Du immediately led two thousand imperial guards to chase after him, with Zuo Qianyu and Princess Tingyang Mu Yingge following closely behind!
Yongshi Money House, outside the Bamboo Garden.
Lieutenant General Du arrived and said, "I'll go knock on the door!"
Lu Zhenzhi: "Yeah."
After getting off his horse, Lieutenant General Du went straight to the door of the bank. Just as he was about to knock, he found that the door opened as soon as he pushed it...
Deputy General Xiao dismounted, remembering the group just now, and shouted: "No! They are stalling for time!"
Lu Zhenzhi flew down and walked quickly into the bank, saying as he walked: "Commander Du!"
The soldiers followed in and some of them surrounded the house.
"Yes!" Brigadier General Du walked in quickly, followed closely by Xiao Pu. Admiral Zuo Qianyu and Princess Tingyang also dismounted and followed in.
"Lead the way! To that room!"
Everyone followed Master Jiu to the library in the backyard. Lieutenant General Du drew his sword and cut off the lock on the door.
The interior was dusty. Shelves upon shelves of books were covered in cobwebs. The books were tattered and rotten, and the musty smell was sickening. The pages had clung together, and a good portion had even adhered to the wood panels of the shelves.
Six large bookshelves, about seven feet high and over nine feet wide, are arranged vertically.
After searching for a long time, I still couldn't find the second door inside.
At this moment, Lieutenant General Xiao felt something like a palm print on the outside of the last row of shelves. He couldn't help but feel happy, thinking that he had found it! So he pushed the bookshelf hard...
With a bang, a palm-sized door popped open on the wall, and inside the door was a bronze beast.
Xiao Pu said: "Master Jiu, look!"
At this moment, Lieutenant General Du suddenly pointed at something on the hard couch and asked, "Is this Miss Fu's whip?"
Lu Zhenzhi turned around and picked up the whip, only to find that it had been broken into two pieces!
His little cat is in great danger!
"Deputy General Xiao!" Lu Zhenzhi stared at Xiao Pu and motioned him to go to the small gate to check.
Vice Admiral Xiao quickly walked over and saw that the base of the bronze beast was quite clean, so he reached out and turned it...
