Chapter 539 Volunteering
After finally prying open all the coffin nails, the two worked together to move the heavy coffin lid to the ground. Yang Lang and Bai Ru went forward to take a look. They saw that the bottom of the coffin was covered with red silk embroidered with gold, and a skinny ancient corpse was lying on it.
The ancient corpse was wearing a Qing Dynasty official uniform embroidered with a white bear pattern, thick-soled black and white boots, an official hat, and his arms were placed flat on his chest. In his hands, he was holding a sword with a shark skin sheath. In addition, there were many porcelain, pearls, jade and other burial objects around him. His wealth was indeed rich.
Qiangzi and his companions on the side were so shocked that their eyes almost popped out of their heads. They couldn't help but regret secretly. If they had known that opening the coffin was not dangerous, they should have done it themselves so that they could be more confident when dividing the loot!
Now, after the "local goods" in the coffin were divided up by five people, there would only be some scraps left in their hands...
Lao Lu said in amazement: "I didn't expect that he was a fifth-rank military officer, at least a garrison commander. No wonder he is so rich."
Fang Ye asked: "Lao Lu, how did you know that?"
In his impression, the Qing Dynasty official uniforms worn by the zombies in the movie seemed to be exactly the same and could not be distinguished at all.
Lao Lu patiently explained: "Of course it's from the official uniforms. The official uniforms of the first to ninth ranks of the Qing Dynasty are different, but they are all beasts. The fifth rank is bears."
"What about civil officials?"
"Civil officials are flying birds. I'll take you to see them next time I have a chance."
"So they use birds and beasts to distinguish. I understand!"
"Cough cough cough!" Bai Ru finally couldn't listen anymore and coughed twice as a reminder.
These two guys are getting more and more outrageous. They really think they are visiting a museum. Do you want to take a photo as a souvenir or something...
The moment the lid was opened, the crying inside stopped. Yang Lang frowned and signaled Yuan Mu to lift the zombie. He wanted to see if there was any mystery underneath.
Yuan Mu said with some embarrassment: "Boss, this thing has been lying there for hundreds of years, and it is estimated that the whole body has become brittle. I am a heavy-handed person, what if I damage it?"
This ancient corpse is a valuable national treasure, and he does not want to be nagging by those old scholars in the Antiquities Bureau every day.
When Qiangzi and his companions heard this, their eyes immediately lit up, and they volunteered: "Why don't we do it? We are professionals and guarantee that we will not destroy the integrity of the local products!"
In recent years, there has been a craze for collecting mummies in the West. A well-preserved zombie like this can be sold for at least several million. If it has complete clothes, hats and shoes, tens of millions are not a problem, so they are not bragging, they have indeed received special training, after all, this is a skill to make a living.
"Okay, you guys come, try to keep the body intact." Yang Lang agreed after a moment's hesitation.
"Don't worry, boss, we'll do it!" Qiangzi excitedly took out a bundle of red rope from his bag, and together with his companions, they tied the rope around the upper body of the zombie and tied a slipknot expertly. The movements were indeed neat and tidy, and they were done in one go. After
the rope was twirled, Qiangzi held the edge of the coffin with his hands and feet, and the whole person was suspended above the zombie, and then his companions put the rope around his neck.
Fang Ye asked, "Old Lu, what's the name of this rope?"
Old Lu replied in a low voice, "This is a tool passed down from their older generation. It's called a corpse rope. It can pull up half of the corpse without damaging it, and the other person takes the opportunity to pack up the funerary objects in the coffin..." Just as
Qiangzi slowly pulled up the zombie, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew up in the tomb for no reason. He felt a chill on his back and his nose itched. He couldn't help but sneeze loudly towards the zombie's face!

Now, after the "local goods" in the coffin were divided up by the five people, there were probably
only some odds and ends left in his hands... Lao Lu exclaimed in amazement: "I didn't expect that he was a fifth-rank military officer, or at least a garrison commander. No wonder he is so rich."
