Ivan immediately ran to the camp and took out several engineering shovels he had brought with him. Several men ran to Mei Shaofeng and began digging on the ground he had drawn.
The ground beneath the ruins is not sand, but hard soil. After digging up this layer of soil, the soil underneath becomes a little softer.
Everyone was staring at the ground, not knowing how big the project was or how long it would take to dig. They could only keep digging and seeing. Fortunately, not long after they started digging, they heard a bang, which was the sound of the shovel hitting something hard.
Everyone was encouraged by the sound and dug harder, and soon they dug out a large wooden board.
Mei Shaofeng frowned as he watched from the side, "It looks more like a coffin lid?"
Everyone was an atheist and was not afraid when they heard this. Instead, they sped up the digging process. No matter if it was a coffin or something else, they would dig it out first!
Several young men present quickly dug out the thing, and it turned out that it was not the underground palace as everyone had thought, but a real coffin.
"This could be the coffin of that old Heavenly Doctor," Mei Shaofeng pondered the various possibilities. "He must have left something about the Nine Needles of Heavenly Medicine in the coffin, and then left the clue on the precious vase to remind future generations to find it!"
Chu Beichen pointed at the coffin and said, "Wouldn't it be clear if we open it?"
Mei Shaofeng nodded: "Okay, everyone, cover your mouths and noses with scarves. As soon as the coffin is opened, bad luck will come out. Don't let yourself be fume!"
Everyone present understood the seriousness of the matter and immediately found scarves and other things to protect themselves before using an engineering shovel to pry open the coffin.
Judging from the size of the coffin and the material of the wood, the person inside is not a big shot, but should be the successor of the Tianyi Sect.
You know, doctors have been indispensable in all dynasties, but their status has always been low.
The boards of the coffin were pried open, and smoke and dust rose for a while. When the smoke and dust settled, a skeleton was revealed in the coffin.
Chu Beichen had received training, and Mei Shaofeng and the others were all doctors. They were not afraid of the bones at all, and they squatted down together to study the skeleton.
"It's an elderly man," Mei Shaofeng said with a frown.
"It's not a natural death. The tendons and neck bones are broken. This person was strangled or hanged!" Chu Beichen observed the cause of death.
"Look, there's something here!" Ivan saw a scroll in the coffin. He didn't care about the bones, jumped into the coffin, and reached out to take out the scroll.
Mei Shaofeng saw his apprentice acting recklessly and hurriedly reminded him, "Be careful, be careful of your morals!"
Ivan then realized the problem. The bones in the coffin had turned to ashes. Could the scroll in his hand be preserved?
He hurriedly climbed out and placed the scroll carefully on the ground, "Hey, open it and take a look for yourselves!" He didn't intend to touch this thing again.
Mei Shaofeng shook his head: "Idiot, forget it, I'll see as much as I can!"
The scroll is still complete now, so I should quickly open it and see what’s on it, Mei Shaofeng thought as he reached out and opened the scroll.
As soon as Mei Shaofeng's hand touched the scroll, he realized that the material of the scroll was special. It was not ordinary paper or cloth, but something very heavy. He couldn't judge the material for a while, so he had to open it to see the contents.
There were seal characters written on the scroll, which were the four big characters of "Nine Needles of Heavenly Medicine". Mei Shaofeng was overjoyed and read them out word by word.
Su Nian had already taken out the camera he had prepared and started taking pictures of the scroll for a while. It is said that a good memory is not as good as a good pen. No matter what the scroll said, he would take a picture first!
