Chapter 2347: Less is More
Although she wanted to capture Nima Shibiao and Nicholas Love alive and give them to Leng Shaoting, it didn't matter even if they were dead. Leng Shaoting would execute them anyway if he caught them.
After saying that, Gu Ning retreated to the edge and waited to watch the show.
Nicholas Love also walked towards Gu Ning. It wasn't that he believed what Gu Ning said that there was something fishy going on, but he decided to retreat just in case. Moreover, he also wanted to take the opportunity to test Gu Ning.
Seeing this, Ma Shibiao couldn't help but start to feel a little uneasy. Could it be that there really are ghosts in this world, and there are ghosts inside.
So Ma Shibiao hesitated.
But he only hesitated for a few seconds before opening the coffin.
"Miss Gu, have you seen ghosts?" Nicholas Love asked. Although he was asking, he was sure in his heart. Otherwise, how could Gu Ning appear so calm? "Yes! What about this gentleman?" Gu Ning replied, and then asked back.
Of course, it was just a casual question, because Gu Ning knew that Nicholas Love had not only seen ghosts, but also had a ghost on his body.
Because he was sure that Gu Ning had seen ghosts, he was not surprised when Gu Ning admitted it. However, Nicholas Love did not answer Gu Ning's question but asked: "What do you think, Miss Gu?"
This was to test how much Gu Ning knew about him.
Gu Ning was well aware of the other party's probing, and he didn't care. He smiled calmly, "Sir, that's a little funny. How would I know if you have ever seen a ghost?"
Although Gu Ning said so, Nicholas Love didn't think so.
If she didn't know, how could she think he would believe that there were ghosts in this world! "Miss Gu knows me?" Nicholas Love asked.
"It's our first meeting and I don't even know your name, so how can I possibly know you?" Gu Ning said. This was the truth.
However, Nicholas Love did not believe it: "If that's the case, then why did you think I believed that ghosts existed in this world?"
"Feeling," Gu Ning said.
Feeling? He didn't think so.
However, before Nicholas Love could continue asking more questions, Ma Shibiao had already pried open the coffin, opened it, and saw the corpse inside.
Suddenly, they were so frightened that they immediately dropped the coffin lid and retreated far away.
Oh my god! The body in the coffin was so well preserved, it looked like it was sleeping, but it didn't look like a living person.
So, the only possibility is a ghost... "Hey! What happened? Why are you so scared?" Seeing this, Gu Ning asked jokingly. Of course, he knew that he was scared by the corpse inside.
"Yes, there is a ghost..." Ma Shibiao pointed at the coffin and said, extremely terrified. Although it had not been confirmed yet, he was certain that it was a ghost.
If it's not a ghost, what is it? Is there anyone lying there deliberately to scare people? No one is that boring!
Is there a ghost?
Nicholas Love was also shocked when he heard this. Of course, he was not shocked by the existence of a ghost, but was surprised that there was really a ghost inside... Suddenly, Nicholas Love looked at Gu Ning with a deep gaze. Did she say that just now? Did she know that there was a ghost in the coffin? Who was she? Why did she know? Or was it just a guess?
"There are ghosts? Don't you not believe that there are ghosts in this world? Why are you saying there are ghosts now?" Gu Ning laughed. He didn't feel the slightest fear at all because of the existence of ghosts.
At this point, someone will certainly ask, isn't it said that people can't see ghosts? Why can Ma Shibiao and his men see them? If it were an ordinary ghost, people would certainly not be able to see it, but this ghost is no ordinary ghost.
Because when a ghost's cultivation reaches a certain level, it can become a physical entity.
Or maybe it was like this female corpse, which was sealed when she died, so that her body would not decay and her soul would not dissipate... In fact, Gu Ning didn't quite understand it.
Anyway, as a cultivator, she doesn't find this kind of magical thing strange.
Ma Shibiao choked when he heard this. Just now he didn't believe that there were ghosts in this world, but now... Ma Shibiao and his men were very confused. Although they still couldn't accept the existence of ghosts in this world, they had to admit that there were indeed ghosts in this world.
At the same time, he was also surprised that Gu Ning actually knew that there was a ghost in the coffin. Who was she and why did she know there was a ghost? And she didn't seem afraid at all.
Nicholas Love had never seen a ghost in the United Kingdom of Diplomat, so he went to see it immediately.
As for him, he is naturally not afraid of ghosts.
Gu Ning did not step forward, but continued to stand at the edge and watch the show.
Nicholas Love came to the coffin, in which lay the corpse of a woman, wearing clothes that he knew were ancient costumes of the United Kingdom of Diputongxia.
Although the female corpse looked intact overall, her face was extremely pale and there was no sign of life, so it was definitely a sign of death.
But he didn't feel any yin energy, which made Nicholas Love quite confused about what was going on.
Gu Ning knew it, because the talisman on their bodies sealed their aura.
Nicholas Love saw the talisman and, out of curiosity, reached out to take it.
"Stop!" Seeing this, Gu Ning immediately spoke out to stop him and then walked over.
Nicholas Love stopped when he heard the voice. He was not displeased by Gu Ning's order to stop. Instead, he thought that Gu Ning ordered him to stop because the thing should not be moved.
Gu Ning walked to the coffin, took a look at the person in the coffin, then looked at Nicholas Love and said, "As long as you move this talisman, this ghost will wake up. If it wakes up the one next to it, we will be in great danger."
After hearing what Gu Ning said, Nicholas Love gave up the idea of using the talisman. It was not because he was afraid, but mainly because there was nothing valuable in the coffin except the corpse. At most, there was the sword next to it.
Although that sword is a good sword, it is not absolutely necessary.
Therefore, it is better to have less trouble than more.
"Then why don't we move the coffins and open the stone door to have a try?" Ma Shibiao said. Although he was scared by the ghost, since Gu Ning said that as long as they didn't move the bodies in the two coffins, they would be fine, then they would just leave the coffins alone.
But now that we are here, we can’t go back empty-handed!
And the treasures should all be inside this door!
"This door cannot be moved. Perhaps there are things inside that are more terrifying than these two coffins." Gu Ning said.
She certainly doesn't want them to touch things that she herself doesn't want to touch, unless they really don't want to live anymore.
