Tomb raiding: Carrying a coffin during a funeral procession, rewarded with the Dragon Elephant Prajn

The first coffin in the Yin Palace was suspended in mid-air by thick chains.

The coffin is made of a special material and is dark red overall.

Wu Xie shone his flashlight inside the Yin Palace, especially on the sunken coffin, and spoke softly.

"I've heard my grandfather say before that sunken coffins, bronze outer coffins, and the legendary mother-and-child coffins are all demon coffins, containing either demons or evil spirits. Ordinary tomb raiders would avoid them if they encountered them."

Ma Liang felt a chill run down his spine after hearing this, and quickly replied.

"Master Li is here, so everything should be alright, right?"

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze to Li Changsheng.

Li Changsheng curled his lip slightly and casually said, "That's hard to say. What if the thing inside the coffin is too ferocious?"

As he spoke, he nudged Wu Xie.

"Go open the coffin."

"Oh, it's me again?"

Wu Xie looked distressed and quickly asked cautiously, "Big brother, my luck is really bad, can we try to pick someone else?"

"Just go when I tell you to. Stop talking nonsense. Don't worry, even if I can't win, I'm still capable of getting you out of here safely."

Hearing this, Wu Xie finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He could only move cautiously into the Yin Palace, where the first coffin was chained and half-suspended in the air.

He tried to pull it, but found that he couldn't budge it at all.

Left with no other choice, Wu Xie had to ask Ma Liang for help.

The two of them worked together to slowly untie the iron chains binding the main hall's crossbeams.

As the last iron lock was released, a loud crash was heard as the buried coffin slammed to the ground.

The all-black coffin was sealed tightly with copper nails.

Having no other option, the two took out a folding shovel and a hammer from their backpacks and, after much effort, managed to pry out the coffin nails.

With all the coffin nails pried out, the coffin lid finally loosened a bit.

But the temperature inside the uterus suddenly dropped several degrees in the next second!

The tomb of King Xian is located inside the mountain, and there is also the cold air from the pool outside, so the temperature has always been very low. At this moment, you can even see the white breath exhaled by the people, which shows that the temperature inside the Yin Palace has dropped to several degrees.

Ma Liang rubbed his arms and muttered to himself.

"Why has it suddenly become so cold?"

Wu Xie shook his head and whispered, "I suspect there's something strange inside this sunken coffin. If we find anything wrong, we'll run to Big Brother's side immediately."

"Hey, that's a great idea!"

Ma Liang readily agreed!

The two then stood one in front of the other at the head and one at the tail of the coffin, and inserted the folding shovel into the gap in the coffin lid, working together to apply force.

Squeak!

With a sound of wood rubbing together, the coffin lid was lifted by the two men.

The moment they were lifted up, the two of them retreated behind Li Changsheng.

Li Changsheng shook his head and said, "Look at how pathetic you all are."

After saying that, he ignored Wu Xie and Ma Liang and walked straight to the sunken coffin.

Li Changsheng shone his flashlight into the coffin and immediately saw that it was very simple inside, containing only a skeleton!

There was nothing else besides that.

On the other side, Ma Liang and Wu Xie waited for a while, but when they saw no other movement, they dared to approach.

Looking at the skeleton inside the coffin, Ma Liang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

If there were some kind of zongzi (rice dumpling) or monster in there, he would definitely be scared, but since it's just a pile of bones, there's nothing to be afraid of.

After observing the skeleton inside the coffin for a while, Ma Liang suddenly said, "That's not right. This isn't a man's skeleton. It should be a woman's skeleton, and a young girl's skeleton at that."

Wu Xie was taken aback upon hearing this, and subconsciously asked, "You know about this?"

Mentioning this, Ma Liang looked proud and explained, "My grandfather and father were both doctors, and their medical skills were passed down from generation to generation! However, I was a bit rebellious in high school and didn't want to study medicine, so I applied to Zhejiang University instead, and that's how I became your classmate."

This was the first time Wu Xie had learned about Ma Liang's family background. He had only known that Ma Liang's family was well-off, considered a middle-class family in the southwest region, but he hadn't expected them to be a family with a long history in medicine.

Just then, Sun Xiaomei helped Professor Sun to the front of the sunken coffin.

Looking at the skeleton inside the sunken coffin, she confirmed Ma Liang's judgment.

"Women tend to have smaller frames, and their pelvises are different from men's. But how could there be a woman's skeleton inside the King Xian's uterus?"

Sun Xiaomei frowned, her face full of confusion.

At this moment, her father, Professor Sun, shook his head and began to explain.

"This is called the Three Incarnations. Legend has it that if one wants to transcend the mortal world and become an immortal, one must completely sever ties with the world. These ties refer to past lives, present lives, and future lives! King Xian must have found the Three Incarnations to replace himself, signifying that he severed his ties with the world."

After listening to Professor Sun's explanation, everyone suddenly understood.

Sun Xiaomei bit her lip and looked at the skeleton in the coffin, saying with some regret, "What a pity, the owner of this coffin was probably not even an adult before he was buried alive with the Prince of Xian."

After saying this, Sun Xiaomei sighed.

But just as she finished sighing, she suddenly heard a soft sigh from a woman beside her.

Sun Xiaomei was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned her head to look around.

However, this Yin Palace was not large; apart from the three coffins in the middle of the main hall, there was nothing else.

Am I hallucinating?

Sun Xiaomei frowned slightly and subconsciously turned to ask Wu Xie and Ma Liang.

"Did you hear any strange noises just now?"

only!

To Sun Xiaomei's surprise, Wu Xie and Ma Liang completely ignored her and instead discussed which coffin contained the true body of the King of Xian.

Sun Xiaomei thought the two were doing it on purpose, and was still angry about the time she and Professor Sun kidnapped several people. She could only purse her lips and swallow back what she wanted to say.

But just as she was about to help her father up, she was surprised to find that her father was also acting as if she didn't exist. Strangely enough, her father's eyes had returned to normal, and he was now bending over to observe the coffin, taking notes in a notebook.

That's when Sun Xiaomei finally realized something was wrong.

She rushed over, grabbed Professor Sun's arm, and asked, "Dad, don't scare me. Can't you hear me?"

Professor Sun ignored her question and continued to focus on recording the buried coffin.

Not only Professor Sun, but also Ma Liang and Wu Xie, no matter how she waved her arms in front of them or tried to drag them, they seemed not to see her at all, as if... as if Sun Xiaomei didn't exist in this world!

A tremendous sense of panic instantly overwhelmed Sun Xiaomei.

She could only place her hopes on Li Changsheng.

But what made her even more desperate was that when she turned around to look around, she found that Li Changsheng was not in the Yin Palace.

There wasn't even outside the genitals.

It was as if this person had simply vanished from the spot.

"How could this happen?"
