    Chapter Index

    Seeing me dumbfounded, the old man glared at me and said with some pride, “This Ying Sense Tong Bao is indeed a family heirloom, Zhao Mou my ancestor was a spear-wielding Langzhong in front of the account of Li Shun the Great Commander, and my ancestor, in addition to protecting the personal safety of Li Commander, was also in charge of the battlefield work of chasing corpses and collecting corpses.”

    I thought, “no wonder, this family heirloom, to say that the historical heritage does not have a point of road that is impossible, to one day this master is not doing this business, not to mention, just put this one ancient spring of fifty items of great treasures sent to the auction, the money that came in exchange for his children and grandchildren are afraid that they can not be used up.”

    Then the old man, with a nervous look on his face, took the money containing the mouth in his hand, looked at the head of the handle and said, “It should be almost ready, open it.”

    “Uh-huh.” The head of the handle nodded with a grave expression.

    Such a heavy bronze coffin lid to push open directly by hand is simply impossible, so I and the head of the approach is to “rush”, with the steel handle of the cyclone shovel as a crowbar into the use of leverage, and then a little bit of moving.

    As we continued to exert force, the lid of the bronze coffin made an unpleasant, ear-splitting rubbing sound.

    There was just a mouthful of the corpse gas from before, and with a thud, the lid of the near-thousand-pound coffin hit the ground with a heavy thud, swirling up quite a bit of dust.

    Master Zhao’s hand with a mouthful of money to stay on guard, I and put our heads down, at the same time raised the flashlight to shine inside.

    Seeing the scene in the coffin, even though I had mentally prepared myself before, I still felt my stomach turn over and I almost vomited.

    It’s disgusting ….. That’s disgusting, no wonder it stinks!

    All the people who saw this scene changed their faces, because we saw that the coffin was covered with a layer of four-legged snake corpses, the number of which was more than a hundred! These four-legged snake corpses were wrapped around each other like a big twist, all of them were half-rotted, and a handful of big white maggots kept tossing up and down between the rotten snake flesh.

    The head of the handle said with a grim face, “Where did the body go, how to light these beasts, where is the body of Mustard Husband?”

    Having said that, the head of the handle did not believe in evil, he forced himself to endure the discomfort and used the spinning shovel as a shovel, shoveling twice in the pile of the snake’s rotten flesh.

    With the movement of his hand undulating, the head of the handle obviously froze and said, “Not right …. There’s a partition in this coffin, there’s another layer under here!”

    “Yunfeng come help, get these things out of here,” the head of the handle twisted and instructed me.

    The smell in the coffin was simply stinky, me and the head of the shovel kept shoveling out those four-legged snakes that had already rotted, and the spinning shovel in my hand had a white layer on its surface under the light of the flashlight. Those were maggots, it really made me sick.

    After handling most of it, it was just as the head of the handle said, there was a divider in the coffin, and this huge pile of four-legged snakes lay flat on the divider. I tapped it with a shovel, and I could tell by the sound that there was space underneath.

    At this time, Yao Yumen suddenly voiced out a reminder, “Wang Houyou guys take a quick look, that piece in the center, is there a small hole?”

    It was true, and it was only when she reminded me and Handlehead that we noticed that there was indeed a small irregularly shaped hole in the center. The hole was narrow at the ends and wide in the middle, kind of like a keyhole of some sort.

    “Huh?” Sister Hong suddenly queried, “I seem to have seen this shape before …..” She raised her eyes to look at me and said; “Yun Feng do you still remember that bronze?”

    “Bronze? What bronze?”

    Suddenly, memories of an earlier scene flashed through my mind.

    “The bronze battle-axe? That ceremonial weapon!”

    “Yes, that’s the thing,” said Sister Hong, pointing to the little hole, “It’s narrow at both ends and wide in the middle, and, you see, the size and width should be about the same by my eyeballing.”

    How could this be! Chen Jiansheng had gotten that thing before, and if we go by that, it’s likely that that thing has now fallen into the hands of Little Skein Head’s group!

    The head of the handle’s face was gloomy, and he asked the beggar Master Liu, saying that he wanted to ask him to try his hand to see if he could open this partition as before.

    Unexpectedly beggar Liu shook his head after seeing, he said, “do not try, try also useless, the coffin lid before is poured with copper water, the lid and the coffin itself is separate, in addition to the time after a thousand years rusting seriously, so I can open.”

    He pointed at the partition and shook his head, “Look guys, this partition itself was built together back then, it’s one piece, I can’t organize it, it’s okay if I have explosives.”
