In fact, it wasn't just Lao Jin; the mercenaries under A Ning's command were also envious.

Although they don't understand the value of Chinese cultural relics, they do know that many ancient Chinese porcelain pieces can fetch astronomical prices at overseas auctions!

only……

Although they were envious, none of them dared to make a move.

After all, their employer, Jude Kao, was not someone to be trifled with.

Given Jude Kao's influence in Europe and America, even if they successfully stole these antiques, they might not live to enjoy them.

Of all the people present, only Li Changsheng, Hei Xiazi, and Gou Huo remained unmoved by these antiques and artifacts.

Li Changsheng knew that Hei Xiazi, like Zhang Qiling, was a centenarian.

He appears greedy and calculating on the surface, but this is merely a facade to deceive others.

Over the past century, through the ups and downs of life, few people value money much anymore.

After all, time is the greatest wealth. If these long-lived people want to make money, any investment they make will increase ten thousand or even ten thousand times in seventy or eighty years.

The simplest example is that a piece of blue and white porcelain that cost tens or hundreds of yuan in the 1970s and 80s would be worth millions or tens of millions in later generations.

Li Changsheng could understand that Hei Xiazi wasn't greedy, but the fact that Gou Huo Daoshi could remain indifferent to so many treasures and artifacts was something Li Changsheng hadn't expected.

"People who don't love money are either extremely ambitious or fools..."

Clearly, Gou Huo is not a fool, and judging from his behavior along the way, he should know some clues about the Black Sheep King. His trip to become an advisor for the Pan Suo Geological Survey and to the Earth Immortal Village is probably also for the Earth Immortal secret technique left behind by the Black Sheep King!

Thinking of this, Li Changsheng ignored everyone else and walked towards the bronze coffin in the center.

Seeing this, Ah Ning's heart stirred, and she quickly followed.

And it wasn't just him; Gou Huo also showed a hint of nervousness in his eyes and quickly followed.

He glanced at Li Changsheng furtively, and couldn't help but pray in his heart.

Indeed, Gou Huo possesses clues about the King of the Black Sheep and knows that the King of the Black Sheep actually comes from a secret family whose members are proficient in various secret arts and have the ability to summon ghost soldiers.

The idea of ​​moving mountains and filling seas is a bit of an exaggeration, but it was indeed a powerful force.

But this isn't the most remarkable thing about the Black Sheep King. His greatest strength lies in an ancient ruin he stumbled upon as a child, which caused a mutation in his body, granting him a spiritual body. Especially after emerging from the ruin, numerous characters from a previous civilization appeared on his head. These characters are said to possess divine power and hold the secret to immortality, and are known as the Black Sheep Divine Script.

Therefore, after the various forces joined forces to wipe out the vassal king Wuyang, they wanted to seize his head.

To everyone's surprise, the head of the Black Sheep King disappeared overnight.

The various factions searched almost the entire Coffin Gorge, but still couldn't find the Black Sheep King's head, and could only leave disappointed.

This is how the legend of the Black Sheep King revealing his true form and having his head chopped off and made into pig's head meat came about.

The whereabouts of the Black Sheep King's head remained unknown, and his descendants could only bury his headless body.

However, Gou Huo believes that Feng Shigu must have found the head of the Black Sheep King in the Coffin Gorge, which led to the Feng family's relocation to the Earth Immortal Village!

"The last hospital test results showed I have pancreatic cancer. Although it's in its early stages, it's almost impossible to cure. The only way is to find the Black Goat King's head and learn the divine inscriptions on it! Then the cancer will heal without medicine, and I'll even live a long life. If I can completely decipher the divine inscriptions on the Black Goat King's head, I can even achieve immortality!"

Thinking of this, Gou Huo seemed to see a wonderful future beckoning to him.

But the only problem is this mysterious consultant, Mr. Li!

"Li Changsheng is incredibly powerful; he can even command flying zombies! I wonder if I can subdue him by activating the hexagonal copper bell at full power!"

Although Gou Huo was not confident, he still wanted to take a gamble, after all, this was his only chance.

Having made up his mind, Gou Huo quickened his pace, following closely behind Li Changsheng and A Ning.

Meanwhile, the rest of the people were exploring inside the underground palace.

Li Changsheng stopped in front of the bronze coffin and then waved to Xiang Yunfeng.

"Old Xiang, come open the coffin!"

Xiang Yunfeng smiled helplessly, thinking to himself, "Is there any particular custom to opening a coffin for someone?"

Why does Consultant Li insist on having me open the coffin?

After thinking for a long time without figuring it out, Xiang Yunfeng didn't dwell on it and happily went to the bronze coffin.

This bronze coffin is enormous, measuring over three meters in length.

The coffin is decorated with reliefs depicting the terrain of Wushan Coffin Gorge and some of the deeds of the King of Wuyang.

Upon seeing these reliefs, the group immediately realized that the coffin must be from the tomb of the King of Wuyang. Even if the coffin didn't contain the King of Wuyang, it was still inextricably linked to the tomb.

Thinking of this, Xiang Yunfeng couldn't help but feel hopeful.

After all, the Black Sheep King is a legendary mythical figure, capable of moving mountains and filling seas, and his true form is a wild boar larger than a mountain. He is almost as powerful as Pigsy from Journey to the West.

Now that he was about to open the coffin of such a mythical demon, he was naturally nervous and excited.

Despite the tension, Xiang Yunfeng's movements remained as steady as a mountain!

Using a crowbar he carried with him, he slowly pried open the lid of the bronze coffin.

Once the bronze coffin was fully opened, Gou Huo couldn't wait any longer and was the first to point his flashlight inside the coffin and examine it carefully.

only……

After taking a quick look, Gou Huo's expression changed drastically.

"How could this be?!"

Ah Ning was taken aback upon hearing this and looked inside the coffin.

Inside the coffin lay a headless corpse, about 1.8 meters tall.

He was dressed in black feudal lord's robes, with a feudal lord's crown and a square seal placed beside him.

Aning took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "This is the Black Sheep King?"

Xiang Yunfeng pondered for a moment, then picked up the square seal from the coffin, examined it, and handed it to A Ning.

"Miss Aning, look at this seal!"

Upon hearing this, Aning took the seal and indeed saw the seal in seal script at the bottom: "Seal of the King of Wuling Yishan".

Upon seeing this, A Ning looked puzzled and said, "Isn't it said that the Black Sheep King is a pig demon? But the corpse in the coffin looks like just an ordinary person who is a bit taller."

Hearing this, Xiang Yunfeng chuckled and shook his head, saying, "Legends are just legends, and shouldn't be taken too seriously. They're mostly just later generations spreading rumors and misinformation, which is how the legend of the pig demon came about. Think about it, if the King of Wuling Mountain was a pig demon, how could those people from the pre-Qin period have dared to offer wild boars as sacrifices at the altar?"

"That...that makes sense."

Ah Ning nodded, then searched the inside of the coffin, but after searching for a long time, she found no trace of the secret techniques of the Earth Immortal.

This made Aning a little restless.

Her purpose in coming to Coffin Gorge was to find the legendary Earth Immortal Techniques cultivated by Feng Shigu.

Even after entering the main tomb of the King of Wuyang, not a trace of Feng Shigu could be found.

On the other side, Gou Huo stared blankly at the headless corpse of the Black Sheep King, and it took him a long time to suppress the disappointment in his heart.

Unlike Aning, who thought the secrets of the Earth Immortals were written in some kind of book, only he knew that the real secrets of the Earth Immortals were actually hidden in the head of the Black Sheep King.

However! The head of the Black Sheep King could not be found in the coffin, which means that the head is very likely in the hands of Feng Shigu.

They were either buried with Feng Shigu or hidden away by him!

Thinking of this, a glimmer of light appeared in Gou Huo's eyes.

Yes, he still has a chance!

If we can find Feng Shigu, we will still have a chance to get the head of the Black Sheep King and see the divine inscription on it.
