“Old Yuan mentioned before that there is a faint stench of corpses in the air here. Based on the existing intelligence, the enemy’s race is exactly the same as the previously beheaded ghost general.
I have fought with him before, so I naturally know how powerful the corpse poison is in his body. However, when I looked at his whole body before, I only saw signs of infection on the wings of his nose and his neck. It was obvious that you had been hanging here before the ghost general entered the cell.
You were lucky. He was confident in his corpse poison and after a quick inspection, he didn't do any finishing moves, so you managed to save your life.
Besides, it was just a demonstration. They had broken into the house and killed people. How would the ghost general have the time to tear clothes and weave ropes?
Window bars..."
Criminal investigation and reasoning, as one of the few hobbies besides spiritual practice, Zhang San was quite interested when he first explained it.
However, just as he was unravelling the mystery and listing out several flaws of Wu Tianzhen, the bewildered looks on everyone's faces immediately dampened his enthusiasm.
"...Okay, let's get back to the point, Mr. Wu. I know you're a smart man, so please tell me, if there's no antique mark, why would Gui Huan be so anxious to kill you?"
After hearing Zhang San's question, Wu Tianzhen first shrugged his nose unconsciously, and then explained while enduring the pain.
“I have been locked up here for several days and I have no idea what is happening outside.
By the way, didn't you say you were protesting before? Maybe it was Gui Huan who was protesting against you. After all, you just killed his comrade last night, so it's reasonable for him to retaliate, right?"
"Hey~"
"Wait, what do you want to do? My Wu family is no pushover...Ah!!"
“The Wu family is the Nine Gates of Changsha Prefecture, and the Five Elements Gate is guarded by Huguang Dao. I know your background well, and you don’t have to remind me again and again, but what I want to say is that if it weren’t for these two people’s face, I would have used illusion to read your mind a long time ago.
I know that using magic to read minds is a taboo in the martial arts world, but if you don't cooperate, I don't know if I have the patience to wait any longer."
After the previous cordial communication, Wu Tianzhen, as an old hand, naturally figured out Zhang San's ways.
Because the case was so confusing, he originally wanted to fish in troubled waters, but after Zhang San said this, Wu Tianzhen became hesitant.
Because it involves the sect's secrets, once a disciple's mind is read by someone, the person who casts the illusion will naturally be hunted down by the sect with all his might. However, the disciple whose mind is read will also be punished with three cuts and six holes.
Judging from his previous behavior, even if the truth is revealed, Zhang San has the courage to withstand the pursuit of the Five Elements Sect, but can he, Wu Tianzhen, withstand it?
Finally, after thinking for a long time, Wu Tianzhen couldn't help but speak.
"Heal me first!!"
Hearing his arrogant words, the baby-faced Zhao Zhen prepared to torture him again, but this time Wu Tianzhen was unexpectedly tough.
Although Song Ruoxuan's main job is a forensic doctor, it does not mean that she does not know how to perform first aid.
With professional knife wound treatment skills and a panacea from the fantasy world, Wu Tianzhen's right arm would recover if he just rested for three months.
“You guessed correctly, he really came here to silence us.
People have their own ways, and rats have their own ways. Not long ago, a well-known Feng Shui master in the circle spread a message that there is a large tomb in Zhenjiang Prefecture. Anyone who is interested can buy the information from him. "
Zhang San wanted to ask who the Feng Shui master was, but considering the rules of the Nine Gates, he had no choice but to give up.
“Although there is no concrete news about the ghost plague in Zhenjiang Prefecture, I have heard some rumors from the old man. However, I, Jiumen, have never cared about politics. You can do whatever you want. I only care about my own wealth.
I was full of vigor and vitality. Forget it, or maybe it was just the youthful vigor. Through the Jiumen channel, I spent a lot of money to buy the location of the tomb from the Feng Shui master.
After finding a few experts in the circle to catch lamas, our group of 13 people embarked on this journey of no return.
Because of the markings on the map, we skipped the process of searching for dragon points, so our progress was amazing. From entering the mountain area to digging a tunnel, it only took us three days.
But just when we were about to go down to the tomb and open the coffin, I sensed a hint of danger."
"Oh, are you in any danger?"
As a lover of mysterious knowledge, Zhang San had naturally read books like "Grave Digging Notes". According to the author's nature, just when he thought he was about to have a small climax, Wu Tianzhen's experience taught him a solid lesson.
“No, the process was really smooth.
There were no hidden weapons or beasts guarding the tomb. After we passed through the tunnel, the main tomb came into view.
At first it was very narrow, but only then could one get through. After walking a few dozen steps, it suddenly became open. Without a doubt, this was a typical tomb structure of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
None of us in the group were mediocre, so naturally we didn't want to capsize in the ditch. However, after we all saw the coffin without any harm, this vigilance became a joke after dinner.
Lighting lamps and touching gold, the rules set by our ancestors must not be forgotten. As a modern-day tomb-raiding lieutenant, the job of opening the coffin naturally fell on me.
The bronze coffin and the jade burial suit with gold threads clearly showed that the man was born into a wealthy or noble family, so it was unlikely that he would return empty-handed this time.
Under normal circumstances, I would have taken off this golden jade suit even if half of the people died here. However, because this incident was too strange, I finally gave up this tempting idea.
Under the protection of the golden jade burial suit, the opponent's body is still relatively intact, which makes it convenient for me to take the Dingyan Pearl. Judging from the specifications of this tomb, this Dingyan Pearl must be a magic weapon without a doubt.
This is the one I was holding in my mouth before. In addition to preventing malicious attacks and maintaining eternal youth, it also has the effect of restraining breath.
Although the candles had not been extinguished until this point, the tomb-raiding sect has its own rules and cannot do things to the extreme. After finding several burial objects, I hurriedly pushed them out. However, at this moment, something terrifying happened. "
As if he recalled some sad memories, Wu Tianzhen's expression at this moment was frightening. After his body trembled for a long time, he continued to speak.
"Whether it's the structure of the tomb passage or the architectural style, I can guarantee with my life that this is the specification of a tomb from the Eastern Jin Dynasty. However, when I carefully examined the burial objects, I found that they were actually items from the Zhizheng period of the Yuan Dynasty. How can such an incredible thing not make people terrified?
Everyone present at the time was knowledgeable. I could see it, and naturally others could see it too. Fortunately, there was a young man named Zhang among the people who were trying to kidnap the Lama. He explained that this was an anti-theft measure by occupying the magpie's nest.
This tomb of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was just a wedding dress for the tomb of the Yuan Dynasty. With such ambition and pattern, as long as we continue to dig, the rewards behind it will definitely exceed our imagination.
Driven by greed, we temporarily suppressed our inner fear, but when we continued to dig down, we saw an even more incredible scene.
Young man, have you ever heard of the Nine Dragons Pulling Coffin?"
