My full-force attack couldn't even leave a mark on it. If this thing were used as a shield or armor, wouldn't it be impervious to swords and spears?
"Hurry! Open the coffin! Let me see what treasures are inside!" the pockmarked man urged impatiently.
However, when they tried to push the lid of the blood-red coffin, they found that the lid was like a mountain and they couldn't move it at all.
"Strange, why can't I push it open?"
The pockmarked man frowned. The coffin was clearly not nailed in, yet it was incredibly hard, and the lid couldn't be pushed open. What should he do?
Just then, the pockmarked man suddenly felt a handful of dirt fall from above his head.
"Um?"
He looked up in confusion and saw that the cave they had climbed down from was now sprinkling clods of earth down from it.
"Who goes there?!" the pockmarked man shouted angrily.
"Hehe, it's me, your dad!"
Qiao Suinian's sunny and cheerful voice came down from above, and the pockmarked face instantly became furious.
It's that silly kid from earlier!
"You dare fill our hole! You just wait! When I get up there, I'll skin you alive!"
The pockmarked man made a move to climb up and assault Qiao Suinian, who immediately showed a look of terror upon hearing this.
"What?! Then I absolutely cannot let you come up!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qiao Suinian pointed his skull staff, and four small skeletons rose from the ground. Each of the small skeletons held a large iron shovel in its hand. He also resurrected the two henchmen who had been left behind by the pockmarked man to keep watch.
At Qiao Suinian's command, the six unpaid laborers went into overdrive, filling the bottom of the cave with soil and gravel as if it were free.
The pockmarked man had barely climbed up a little when he was smashed down.
"Ah! Rebellion! Rebellion!" The pockmarked man was furious. "You dare bury me alive? Do you even know who I am?"
Qiao Suinian sneered upon hearing this, and said in a cold voice, "Then do you know who I am?"
"You? Who are you?"
The pockmarked man suddenly felt uneasy. Could the other party be a prominent figure in Kyoto, acting so recklessly?
But if he's from Kyoto, there's no reason he wouldn't recognize him!
Could it be the illegitimate child of some super-powerful figure? He knew very well that some women, once given the chance to have a one-night stand with those powerful figures, would use every means to get pregnant with their child and secretly give birth to it.
For example, secretly poking a hole in a baby's burp bag, clamping it tightly to prevent it from being pulled out at a critical moment, or picking up something from the trash can to make a homemade cream puff are all common practices.
Once the child is born, the mother will gain status and practically be able to do whatever she wants in Kyoto.
Such incidents are quite common. Some important figures, in order to prevent this from happening, will even pour some chili oil into the baby's burp bag afterward.
In the mind of the pockmarked man, Qiao Suinian was instantly categorized as the illegitimate son of some important figure.
Just as the pockmarked man was filled with suspicion, he heard Qiao Suinian above him sneer and continue to question, "You really don't know who I am?"
"Young man, I truly do not know who you are. If I have offended you in any way, I, Wang Mazi, apologize on your behalf!"
Hearing the other party's tough tone, the pockmarked man couldn't help but back down. After all, in Kyoto, a single brick could hit several important figures, and he was genuinely afraid of kicking a hornet's nest.
"You really don't know who I am, huh? Great! Keep burying! Hurry up!"
