Chapter 388 The upright coffin



Wei Mian frowned deeply. She felt a violent vibration coming from under her feet and spoke sternly to the two men.

"Run! Run in the direction we came from!"

"quick!"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Guangyuan and Huang Yulong hurriedly ran back along the route they had just come.

The two men didn't dare to think about anything at this moment. Their faces turned pale with fear. They ran as fast as they could in their lives, all the way back when they came.

When he finally reached the end of the road and was about to turn, Cheng Guangyuan couldn't help but look back.

The slender figure was still standing in the place where the violent tremor had just occurred, and the land that was flat before suddenly sank in his sight. Black air was rolling, and an invisible air wave spread out towards the surroundings.

His pupils shrank as he watched the completely supernatural phenomenon in front of him. The wind suddenly blew up and a huge hole suddenly appeared on the concrete ground. This was obviously not something that human power could do.

At this moment, he finally realized the danger.

Cheng Guangyuan looked at Wei Mian standing motionless in the same place as before, with only the corners of her clothes and hair dancing in the wind. He was about to shout for them to run together.

But the girl suddenly turned her head and looked at him, then jumped into the depression in the middle and disappeared in front of him in an instant.

Cheng Guangyuan's heart trembled violently. He was hesitating whether to run back when he saw an arm suddenly stretched out from the depression and waved it impatiently towards him.

Cheng Guangyuan: "...Let's go."

Wei Mian made sure that the two men had run far away, and then she turned her attention back to the big pit that suddenly appeared. She was mentally prepared, so she was fine when she jumped in just now. Now she continued to walk down, and for convenience, she turned on the flashlight of her mobile phone to shine forward.

This was a very deep pit filled with broken concrete. Wei Mian looked around and quickly found the right direction.

The bottom of this sunken pit was about five meters above the ground. Wei Mian walked down a little further and found that the collapsed part had reached its end. If he wanted to go forward, there was only a narrow gap leading to a deeper part.

There was a little light at the end of the gap.

A bright light appeared underground.

Wei Mian took out a folding military shovel from his back, and selected a talisman to stick on it. Then the concrete was like tofu meeting a kitchen knife, and the military shovel shoveled off a large piece with every stroke.

After a few blocks, the narrow gap widened a lot and became wide enough for one person to pass through.

Wei Mian dug and walked down like this. After digging about five or six meters, she finally came to a different place.

There is no concrete here, but exposed bricks.

Her gaze paused on the bricks. These were all made of sand and clay. Due to the limitations of the technology at the time, a lot of glutinous rice paste was added during the firing process to fill the gaps between the sand and clay, so they were called glutinous rice bricks.

These glutinous rice bricks can be used to build houses, construct city walls, etc. They are simply the ancient version of reinforced concrete. It is said that they can withstand strong earthquakes and storms.

In the eyes of the Taoist priest, glutinous rice bricks have another function, which is to ward off evil spirits.

Many people must have heard that glutinous rice can remove corpse poison, and even the nemesis of zombies is glutinous rice. Therefore, using glutinous rice bricks to build tombs mostly has only one function, which is to prevent the things inside from turning into zombies.

Or maybe they knew it would turn into a zombie and wanted to trap it inside with sticky rice bricks.

Of course, those glutinous rice are not ordinary glutinous rice, they have all been cast into spells.

It seems that there should be an ancient tomb under the shopping mall that has existed for who knows how many years. As for whether the layout of nine bends surrounding water was only created later, Wei Mian has no way of knowing.

Assuming it existed in the past, if someone built a tomb in such a Feng Shui location, people would have good fortunes in the future.

But based on the evil aura she saw, it means that the things buried inside are very vicious, which is a bit contradictory.

It is also possible that it is not for the protection of ancestors, but to borrow the power of feng shui of this place to suppress it.

Or was it unintentional, and the ancestors were buried in such a place by accident?

wrong!

Wei Mian took out the orientation map she had drawn last night from her bag, and she found that she had overlooked a place, that is, this place is Yin.

Her senior brother once told her about an incident that happened while traveling.

It is said that in order to make money, the family deliberately asked a Feng Shui master to bury the bones of their elders on the shady side in order to suppress the evil spirits.

There is a saying in the Feng Shui world that the harder the evil energy presses on a grave, the more wealth will come.

This was a desperate Feng Shui scheme for seeking wealth. If someone had deliberately set it up, Wei Mian believed that this family must have become extremely wealthy before, and only began to decline uncontrollably after the evil spirit leaked out a few years ago.

But if it was really planned, this family should tell their descendants about it, or at least let them know to take care of this place, otherwise a situation like this will occur, such as someone building a building on this land.

But when Wei Mian was digging, he discovered something magical. He didn't know whether the person who designed the building did it intentionally or unintentionally, but the foundation of the shopping center was only half a meter higher than the location of the ancient tomb.

In other words, if they had continued digging down half a meter, they would have definitely discovered this place.

As to whether it was unintentional or a coincidence, it is unknown.

Wei Mian suspected that this family was the same as the one her senior brother mentioned. They used evil spirits to suppress their relatives here for the sake of the family's future glory for a hundred years. However, whether they neglected management or something else, she would wait until she finished dealing with things here and left to find out.

Wei Mian used the military shovel in her hand to dig at the glutinous rice bricks. These bricks had been buried underground for many years, but they were still hard. She even felt that it took more effort than digging concrete.

But Wei Mian has a military shovel with stacked buffs, so these are not a problem at all.

Soon she reached the bottom, and after jumping down, she found that the light she had just seen in the gap actually came from the night pearl on the wall.

In the square tomb chamber, a night-shining pearl as big as a quail egg was inlaid on each of the two opposite walls.

In fact, it is not particularly bright, but it is a rare light in this dark ancient tomb.

She looked around and found that there was nothing extra here, not even the alleys she expected, and no introduction about the tomb owner.

In the empty tomb, only an upright coffin appeared in front of her.

Wei Mian didn't rush over, but first shone the flashlight around and found that the terrain of this place was very strange, like a huge funnel, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom.

Although it is said to be wide, it is actually no more than ten meters.

After looking around, Wei Mian turned his gaze back to the coffin in the middle. The coffin was about three meters high and more than one meter wide. It stood there in pitch black and was very oppressive.

What made her feel unusual was the smell emitted by the coffin, which gave off a vague feeling of fear.

This feeling—

Wei Mian put away her phone, and the faint white light in the tomb returned. She shifted the military shovel to her left hand and reached into her pocket with her right hand.

At this moment, the coffin standing upright on the ground suddenly began to shake violently again, the kind of vibration that could shake the entire tomb.
