Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

The candle didn't respond, Lin Ran nodded, Xu Ning understood, sat on the lid of the hanging coffin, and started to remove the nails inside with a tool.

After taking out a few long nails, they threw them directly on the ground.

"I'm going to open the coffin." Xu Ning stood up, but he didn't expect that the iron chain was quite strong. He stood on the hanging coffin except for a little shaking, but there was no sign of any lower limit. "No problem, but please pay attention to your safety."

I saw Xu Ning loosen the top of the coffin slightly, and then climbed onto the iron chain next to it. The iron chain was shaking constantly, which made the others a little worried.

Fortunately, he quickly controlled his balance, and after stopping shaking, he kicked towards the top of the coffin.

Kicked the lid of the hanging coffin directly to the ground.

"Hey, are you really archaeologists?" Shen Yi said, "You open such precious research materials like this. What if the coffin breaks?"

"We can still manage so much now." Lin Ran replied, "If no one is chasing us from behind, we can study it slowly. How long do you think we can stay?"

After saying that, he looked at Xu Ning above and asked about the situation inside.

Xu Ning saw a rotten corpse lying inside the coffin, with some bugs crawling around on the corpse and covered with green mucus.

Even though his mind was calm, he couldn't help but feel nauseous.

And after the coffin was opened, the people below also felt a strong putrid smell.

Wang Jinpeng burped and almost vomited out the acidic water in his stomach.

However, he still swallowed it hard.

"What to do next?" Xu Ning had held his breath as much as possible. Even so, there was a smell like an aqua toilet, which made him feel sick even when he saw it.

He had been to so many graves, and this was the first time he had seen a corpse rotten like this.

"Is there any way to lower the coffin?" Lin Ran asked.

Only he is on top and can have close contact with the mechanism.

Xu Ning tried to pull the chain and said, "I'm afraid it won't be untied for a while."

After saying that, he climbed down from the top quickly.

After reaching the ground, I started to breathe heavily. Even though the ground had a strong smell of rot, it was much better than the one above.

At this moment, he didn't want to stay up there any longer.

After reaching the ground, he told Lin Ran the situation inside the coffin.

"What? A rotting corpse?" Lin Ran was puzzled. If it were an ancient tomb from the Han Dynasty, it would be pretty good to have bones left behind.

With the antiseptic measures used by the ancients, how could it be possible for a corpse to remain intact for thousands of years and yet deteriorate at this juncture?

"Did you find anything unusual on it just now?" Lin Ran asked, "For example, are there any signs that the coffin has been opened?"

Xu Ning took a sip of water, then spit it on the ground and said, "It doesn't feel like I've been shot."

Unfortunately, the hanging coffin was too high, making it inconvenient for Lin Ran to go up and check it out.

If only there was a way to get the coffin off.

Guan Yun said: "Let me go up and take a look. You are too sensitive to corpses."

He smiled slightly and wanted to imitate Xu Ning and climb up.

It turned out that there was no foothold on the edge of the cliff.

He suddenly became puzzled, how did Xu Ning climb up?Could it be that the gloves and shoes he wore were specially made?

Guan Yun actually guessed almost exactly.

"Do you want to go up and take a look?" Xu Ning asked.

"Of course, but you can't take it off."

"I can take you up."

Soon, Xu Ning climbed up again, and then dropped a climbing rope from above.

I tried it on the iron chain and it was pretty solid.

He slid down the climbing rope and said to everyone: "Catch him and step on the wall to go up."

This is indeed a method, but it tests one's arm strength.

Lin Ran had played similar projects in the amusement park, but the personal experience was completely different.

"Go ahead, I'll catch you below." Guan Yun said.

Lin Ran nodded, grabbed the rope, and jumped up.

The rope pulled the iron chain above, causing the hanging coffin to come closer to him. Lin Ran almost lost his grip, causing the people below to feel worried.

"I'd better go." Guan Yun advised.

After all, Lin Ran plays more of a team brain role in the team. He is really not good at this kind of physical work.

"It's okay." After a while of shaking, Lin Ran finally regained control of his balance.

Grab the rope, then step on the stone wall with your body parallel to the ground, and slowly climb up.

The higher you go up, the stronger the rancid smell will become.

Lin Ran was so choked that he couldn't even open his eyes, and his heart was beating loudly.

Finally, before I could bear it no longer, I climbed onto the chain.

Then he climbed up and hugged the chain tightly. Because he lost traction, the chain began to shake violently again.

Lin Ran was not as skilled as Xu Ning, and he already felt dizzy.

"Are you okay?" Wang Jinpeng held a flashlight and shined it into the coffin.

Lin Ran nodded with a pale face, then grabbed the chain and stood up.

At this moment, he was like a tightrope walker in a circus, who had to be extremely careful with every step.

Approaching the hanging coffin, Lin Ran took a flashlight and shined it inside.

Just like Xu Ning said, he almost vomited when he saw the body in the coffin.

The corpse was in a highly decomposed state, but he didn't vomit because of fear, but for some reason, the putrid smell in the corpse was a bit unbearable for him.

His eyes were so smoked that he couldn't open them, but he still endured it and walked to the coffin.

He rummaged under the body with his gloved hands.

Strangely, hanging coffins usually contain funerary objects.

But there is nothing here, and looking at the clothes the corpse is wearing, why does it look like a modern person?

Lin Ran suddenly felt something bad and rummaged through his clothes.

Unexpectedly, a pen and a piece of paper were pulled out from inside.

Although the paper was soaked, Lin Ran still recognized it as a business card.

The words on the business card are vaguely visible.

"Zhao... Li... Jie?" When Lin Ran read out the name, he felt like he was getting an electric shock.

Zhao Lijie was not the researcher who betrayed Shen Yi, so how could his body be in the hanging coffin?

There were no other valuable items in the coffin. Lin Ran couldn't bear it anymore, so he threw off his gloves, then wrapped himself in a circle with a rope, and slowly lowered down while holding on to the rope.

When he handed the business card to Shen Yi, Shen Yi exclaimed: "Ah!"

Not just a business card, this pen was also something Zhao Lijie carried with him. Because the style was very new and he liked to show off, Shen Yi naturally remembered it.

"Is there a treasure hunting party?" The situation in the hanging coffin tomb scared them.

After Lin Ran climbed down, he quickly ran to a corner and vomited.
