Tomb Raider: Starting from the Valley of Insects, integrating Golden Silkworm Gu

Chapter 89
Whether a normal person encounters a bronze coffin or a cellar coffin, the first reaction is to stay still and leave quickly.

The ancestral precepts left by Captain Mojin also said so, but who told the four of them to be hard-pressed, some things must be done by them.

Carrying tools, they came to the side of Yinzi's coffin. The four of them did not rush to do it, but observed carefully.

The Xingzi coffin in front of me is smaller than the bronze coffin, about eight inches in length, made of wood, and there is no coffin outside.

There is no paint on it, and the dark wood body and grain are exposed, adding a bit of mystery and solemnity.

Shi Lei stepped forward, stretched out his hand and knocked twice.

The sound of dong dong dong echoed in the enclosed space, loud as a bell, much like the sound from a musical instrument.

[Touch the cellar coffin to get 100 energy experience points. 】

"As expected of an old tree tens of thousands of years old, it is really powerful."

"This thing sounds pretty nice to tap, can it be used as a musical instrument?" Fatty also wanted to tap twice, but was stopped by Lao Hu.

"You don't know it when you look at it. This is a eucalyptus. It grows in the gutter and grows in the gutter. It cannot be exposed to sunlight during the growth process, otherwise it will be useless."

"Looking at the lines on it, it takes 100 years to grow one. Looking at the size of this cellar coffin, this tree is also more than 9000 years old."

Nodding, the old nonsense is very reasonable.

"That's right, and this kind of cellar wood has disappeared since the Han Dynasty. Even Cixi didn't get this treatment."

"Cixi? Could it be that she also called this Zingzimu's attention?"

"Of course, Empress Dowager Cixi loves beauty, and she just wants to keep her body from decomposing after a hundred years, and this scented wood has such a function."

The fat man patted his thigh and said, "No wonder, this is really a treasure, but it's a little too big to move back."

As soon as these words came out, I felt three eyes killing me.

"Tongue was injured, hand was also injured, how can I still have no memory, do I really regret it until I lie on the coffin board?"

"Oh, I'm just joking."

The fat man chuckled twice and stopped talking.

"It's good to know. You have to know that this cellar coffin grows in the gutter, and its body is full of cold air. You can't touch it casually." After a pause, he continued, "When you knocked on the coffin just now, Don't you feel that something is wrong?"

It was nothing at first, but when Shi Lei asked this question, he really felt pain as if he touched the place where he touched the coffin.

It's not the kind of direct pain, it's like the stinging pain of cold wind pouring into the bones.

Thinking about it this way, the fat man didn't dare to move forward.

"I thought about it just now. I should leave this kind of thing to Commissioner Shi. It's fine for a mortal like me to watch."

With that said, he took a step back and made a gesture of invitation to Shi Lei.

Smiling slightly, he was very satisfied with Fatty's awareness and reaction.

I walked up to the coffin and took a look with my night vision ability, and found that there was no evil in it.

Compared with that bronze coffin, it was nothing.

Could it be that there was an ordinary corpse inside?
But even so, he did not take it lightly.

After all, compared with the corpse inside, this cellar coffin is the most important thing.

He only knocked twice just now, and he felt that part of the essence and blood in his body was missing.

If it weren't for the Qilin's health recovery, he probably wouldn't be able to use his Night Light ability.

Just as Shi Lei was about to take action, Shirley Yang on the side suddenly spoke.

"You all say that this cellar coffin can guarantee that the corpse will not rot, but judging from the current science and technology, only by using special potions or air-drying methods can the corpse not rot."

"It can be done with a mere coffin, I'm a little confused."

Xu Shi had long realized that Xueli Yang would ask this question, Shi Lei didn't panic at all.

"It's very simple. King Xian is the best at using Gu techniques. This cellar coffin is equivalent to a vampire, specially absorbing the blood essence of those who touch it, and transferring it to the corpse inside."

Xue Liyang nodded thoughtfully, "Does this mean that the fresh blood essence is the reason why the corpse inside does not rot?"

"That's understandable."

"I've heard of this method. According to legend, such a corpse is just like a living person, not stiff at all, and even bends its knees and elbows." Lao Hu added.

Seeing that Lao Hu also knew a lot, Shirley Yang started pestering him again.

Seeing this, Shi Lei started busy with his own affairs.

He leaned over to observe the coffin of Yin Zi, and by the light, he suddenly found that there were many fingerprints on it.

Different sizes, densely overlapped.

At first, I was a little confused, but after thinking about it carefully, I understood everything.

These fingerprints should be those of craftsmen, coffin bearers, or sacrificial objects. They should have come into contact with this coffin before their death, and their essence and blood declined and died.

The reason why the fat man is fine is naturally because Shi Lei is behind him to protect him, otherwise he will end up with those people.

Shirley Yang over there came over after discussing with Lao Hu.

"Xiao Shi, didn't you say that as long as you touch this cellar coffin, you will die? Don't get so close."

"It's okay, I'm immune to this kind of Gu technique."

Xue Liyang wanted to say something more, but remembering that Shi Lei hadn't lost the chain along the way, and because he had made up his mind, he didn't stop him.

"Even so, you'd better be careful."

"Don't worry." After finishing speaking, he put his hands on the coffin.

The next second, a cold air came out and quickly penetrated the whole body.

In an instant, it seemed as if all the blood in his body had solidified, and his life essence was disappearing bit by bit.

He frowned tightly, but kept silent, on the surface it was exactly the same as before.

"This thing is really powerful. In such a short period of time, it can no longer hold up."

Afraid of being discovered by the three people behind him, he quickly used the unicorn to restore blood.

Fortunately, it doesn't take much time for Qilin to recover blood.

In almost an instant, the essence and blood absorbed by the cellar coffin returned to his body.

Not only that, as soon as the fresh blood came into contact with his body, he felt more powerful than before. This sense of control made him feel good.

Continue to put both hands on the cellar coffin, looking for the most vulnerable place, so as to open it faster.

After Qilin regained blood, his body was no longer abnormal.

He is not afraid that these powers will be used up, after all, Qilin's blood essence is inexhaustible and inexhaustible.

I didn't rush to open it, after all, there were still some evil spirits inside.

He held the dragon and tiger scepter in his hand for self-defense.

Then it released the Golden Snake Immortal Gu, and soon, it absorbed all the evil energy inside.

Everything is ready.

"Lao Hu, hand me your black fold."

After getting the black zhezi, the area in contact with the cellar coffin was larger, and more blood essence was absorbed.

However, with Qilin's health recovery, it doesn't matter no matter how much he is sucked.
