Immersive Thriller Game

Chapter 271 Lifelike Corpse

Mo Shouchen quickly checked the condition of the fourth child. His body temperature was still very high. He was probably suffering from fever, so he said some inexplicable words.

Realizing that it was just a false alarm, Hu Jiu took a deep breath, then pulled the handle, and the stone door slowly rose, revealing the scene in the tomb to everyone.

This tomb is very similar to the tomb of the bloody corpse. It has the same area. There are also murals on the surrounding walls. Even the coffin placed in the center of the tomb is exactly the same.

However, the coffin of the bloody corpse is blood red, but the coffin in this tomb is golden.

Moreover, this tomb is magnificently decorated, just like a small palace, and you can see many funerary objects inside.

From this point of view, this should be the main tomb that Mr. Zhou has been looking for.

Seeing the rich burial objects in the tomb, Scarface showed an excited look. He excitedly rushed to the corner where the porcelain was placed, having long forgotten the agreement he made before entering the tomb.

Seeing Scarface being so rude, Tuesday Ye yelled dissatisfied: "Scarface, don't touch the things in the tomb!"

Scarface had already rushed to a porcelain vase. He was about to reach out to take it, but was stopped by Mr. Tuesday.

He said nonchalantly: "Second Master, these porcelains are so well preserved. Any one of them is probably worth a fortune. Are you really not going to take two of them back?"

"You can't take it even if it's worth a fortune. Listen to me. In addition to what I'm looking for, let's choose another funerary object. You and the fourth child will share this funerary object equally, and I will pay you an extra reward after we go back."

.”

Scarface curled his lips and withdrew his hand from reaching for the porcelain, but a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes.

While Mr. Zhou was persuading Scarface, Hu Jiu and Mo Shouchen looked at the murals on the wall.

The murals record the great achievements of the tomb owner.

It can be judged from the content of the murals that the person buried here is indeed a Jurchen emperor.

The emperor was very young when he ascended the throne, and later expanded his territory, suppressed rebellions, and governed the country in an orderly manner.

Finally, he died and was buried surrounded by officials and people.

Judging from the content on the murals, he was simply a greater monarch than Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han.

Of course, generally this kind of murals are extremely exaggerated. If the Jurchen emperor was really so powerful, the Jurchen emperor's reign would not be so short.

However, according to the content on the mural, the emperor was seriously injured while fighting the rebellion and seemed to have almost died.

However, after suffering such a serious injury, he recovered in a very short period of time. Because of this, he was able to defeat the rebels.

I just don’t know whether the emperor’s miraculous recovery after being seriously injured was an exaggerated way of describing it, or whether something special happened at that time that allowed him to recover so quickly.

After reading all the contents of the murals, it is basically certain that the Jurchen Emperor is buried in this tomb. However, whether there is anything in the coffin that Lord Zhou wants can only be answered after the coffin is opened.

Because the fourth child had not yet woken up, Mr. Zhou had to open the coffin in person.

Hu Jiu still lit a candle in the southeast corner of the tomb, and Scarface said angrily: "I suggest you change to a better quality candle in the future, otherwise it will burn out every time you open the coffin. Who can bear this!"

Hu Jiu ignored him. After lighting the candles, he walked to the coffin. Each of the four people took a corner, and then began to pick up the coffin nails.

Different from the eighteen coffin nails of the bloody corpse, this coffin only had four coffin nails, so the coffin nails were quickly removed.

Then the four people inserted the engineering shovel into the gap under the coffin lid, and then pried it off little by little.

Since the candles for the first two coffin openings were extinguished, they didn't have much hope this time.

But when they raised the coffin lid and pushed it away, the candles were still burning.

This made Hu Jiu and others breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that they would not encounter dangers such as corpse transformation this time.

After pushing the coffin lid halfway open, Hu Jiu took a flashlight and shined a light into the coffin. When he saw the corpse inside, he couldn't help but be startled.

In the previous two coffins, one was a mummified corpse and the other was a bloody corpse, but the corpse in this coffin looked lifelike, as if it had just been buried.

In the past, Hu Jiu had heard that some special methods or items could be used to keep the corpse looking like it was before death, but this was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes.

He knocked on the coffin. It was made of fine golden nanmu, but the golden nanmu had no antiseptic function, and the coffin had not been sealed in any way.

In other words, the corpse in the coffin must be able to maintain its current state by relying on some kind of item.

Could it be that what Mr. Zhou is looking for is this kind of item that can keep corpses from decaying?

Hu Jiu glanced at the burial objects inside the coffin and found nothing special.

However, Master Zhou's face showed unconcealable joy. It seemed that he had found what he wanted.

Following Mr. Tuesday's gaze, Hu Jiu saw the corpse with its hands on its chest. In its hands, it was holding something about the same length and thickness as a finger. It looked like a small flute.

Sure enough, Tuesday Ye directly reached out and grabbed the flute in the corpse's hand, and then tried hard to pull the flute out of the corpse's hand.

But the corpse held the flute tightly and couldn't pull it out at all.

Since one hand couldn't do it, Mr. Zhou grabbed the flute with both hands, then stepped on the coffin with one foot and pulled it out with all his strength.

But even though he pulled the body up, he still didn't take out the flute.

Seeing that the flute couldn't be pulled out, Mr. Zhou suddenly became angry and said to the scarred face next to him: "The engineer shovel chopped off his hand for me!"

Scarface was studying which funerary object in the coffin was the most valuable. After hearing Master Zhou's instructions, he quickly raised the engineer shovel.

Mr. Tuesday pulled the corpse's arm to the edge of the coffin. Scarface raised his shovel and cut off the corpse's wrist with a "click".

After cutting off the wrists, the body fell back into the coffin. Its skin began to rapidly shrink and turn black, and it soon turned into a mummy.

The severed hand holding the flute also shrank and withered, and eventually fell off the flute.

After getting the flute, Mr. Zhou once again showed unconcealable joy. Although he lost two capable men on this trip, he got what he dreamed of, so he felt it was worth it.

But what he didn't expect was that just when he was about to put the flute away, Scarface next to him suddenly snatched the flute from his hand...
