Chapter 89 Regret

"This, this is not good?"

Wu Xie said hesitantly, but the hand holding the box was very honest, and I didn't see that this guy really wanted to return it.

"Hey, I seem to know this box."

Upon hearing Wu Xie's words, the fat man on the side hurriedly asked, "Isn't it the first time for us to visit this tomb? Where have you seen this box before?"

Seeing that the fat man had misunderstood what he meant, Wu Xie hurriedly explained:
"No, I mean something similar to this box. This kind of box is generally called the eight-fold treasure box, but this kind of box is usually used to place the Buddha's relics, but Buddhism had not yet been introduced to China during the Warring States period. , so it is definitely not a relic, and this is an extremely exquisite ancient cipher box, but it seems different to me."

While talking, Wu Xie turned the box over to reveal a keyhole, and then said in doubt:

"Theoretically speaking, the eight-fold treasure box is made with the Luban lock. Generally, there is no need for a key to unlock it, but this box still has a keyhole."

The fat man hurriedly stretched his head up to have a look, and sure enough, he saw a keyhole. The two looked at Feng Siming with puzzled faces and wanted to hear his opinion.

Feng Siming pretended to think for a while and then said:
"Since this box is held by the blue-eyed corpse, the key must be with them. Let's look for it."

Without waiting for the two of them to nod their heads, Feng Siming went to the jade bed and helped the female corpse to sit up, then inserted his hand into the back of her neck, letting her head tilt back.

After being teased by Feng Siming, the female corpse who had kept her mouth tightly opened immediately opened her small mouth. Both Fatty and Wu Xie saw that there was really something hidden in the female corpse's mouth.

The two hurriedly got closer to take a closer look, and suddenly found that the key was hidden in the mouth of the female corpse. They didn't expect that Feng Siming found the key so easily, and it felt a little unreal for a while.

"How did you know she had the key in her mouth?"

Feng Siming shook his head to deny this statement, and then explained:

"I just saw that the female corpse still looked so lifelike after being dead for so long, so I guessed that there must be something like embalming beads hidden in her mouth. It's a blind cat meeting a dead mouse."

After listening to Feng Siming's explanation, the two of them suddenly realized that the ancients often hid things in their mouths, such as putting money in their mouths or beads with anti-corrosion function. Didn't the Empress Dowager Cixi hide a treasure in her mouth? night pearl.

Feng Siming kept Fatty and Wu Xie away from each other, so as not to trigger the mechanism inside the woman's body when taking the key, and seeing both of them walking behind him, Feng Siming was the one who was holding the woman's body by the mouth. , so that she could not keep her mouth shut, then slowly pressed her head down, then patted her head from behind, and then a key fell out of her mouth.

The key had just dropped onto the jade platform and made a jingle, Feng Siming then retracted the elbow joints supporting the back of the female corpse, and helped the female corpse to slowly lie back on the jade bed.

When Fatty and Wu Xie saw Feng Siming took out the key, they came forward to have a look, and it was at this time that the terrifying scene happened.

It turned out that the key in the mouth of the female corpse really had the effect of embalming and fixing the corpse. Now that the key was taken out, the lifelike female corpse turned into an old bacon mummy in an instant. A chill ran down Xie's spine.

"Now that the key has been obtained, let's rescue my third uncle and the others."

As Wu Xie spoke, he proposed that the fat man was covered in scars at this time, and he only thought about recovering from his injuries after going back this time, so having a bronze mask from the Warring States period was already a reward, and he didn't want to be in this ever-changing ancient tomb. After stopping, the few people looked at the surrounding environment again.

Seeing that there seemed to be a hole in the wall of the cave behind the sacrificial altar on the other side of the corridor, the three of them had a direction. Wu Xie and Fatty had no major injuries, but minor injuries were all over their bodies, so they didn't walk fast.

Fortunately, the stone corridor was not long in the first place, and with Feng Siming's support, the three of them quickly walked to the middle section. Once they left the area where the Hydra cypress vines were hanging upside down, the three of them looked up and saw clearly. After the moonlight, I saw that the platform above the cliff where several people were standing before was already empty.

Wu Sansheng, Pan Zi, and A Kui were already gone. When Wu Xie saw that his third uncle had gone somewhere, he became a little irritable.

"Third uncle, what about my third uncle and the others? Could it be that when we were dragged down earlier, my third uncle and the others were also dragged down?"

"Impossible. If they are also dragged down, the three big living people cannot be silent. If there is a cry, then I will definitely hear it."

Feng Siming shook his head and denied Wu Xie's statement, but Wu Sansheng and the others were indeed no longer on the above platform.

At this time, the fat man on the side reached out and patted Wu Xie's shoulder to comfort him and said:

"Maybe they saw that we all came down, and they should have gone back to find a way out. We might see it when we go out."

As soon as the fat man said that, the three of them heard a crackling sound coming from the dark hole in the cave wall. The three of them immediately became vigilant. Feng Siming held the dagger in his hand and let the two injured people hide Behind their own, in case of accidents.

After several crackling sounds, the cave returned to calm again. Just as Feng Siming let go of his frowning brows, he saw a bright light coming from the dark cave, which was different from moonlight and firelight.

Feng Siming immediately recognized this kind of halo as the light of a miner's lamp. Wu Xie and Fatty were originally poking their heads behind Feng Siming's head, but at this time they also recognized the light of a miner's lamp. Xie exclaimed in surprise:
"Maybe my third uncle and the others."

As soon as he finished speaking, as expected, he saw three figures starting to shake inside. There was a corner in this hole. The three of them waited for a while, and then they saw a person suddenly appearing from the corner in the hole.

It was Pan Zi with a miner's lamp on his head, and Wu Sanxing and A Kui were following him. Wu Xie was so excited when he saw his third uncle that he almost cried. To be honest, he couldn't see Wu Sanxing on the cliff just now. On the platform above, he was really scared.

If Wu Sansheng had something good or bad, as a big nephew, I was afraid that he would cry to death every day, and his emotions would be difficult to calm down. Wu Xie didn't care about the pain on his body, and hurriedly greeted Wu Sansheng.

Sensing movement in front of him, Pan Zi hurriedly raised his gun, and after looking closely with the light, he realized that it was Wu Xie.

"Little third master?"

"Big nephew!"

Wu Sansheng was also very excited when he saw Wu Xie. How can Wu Xie bring it to the grave by himself? If the only seedling in the Wu family is destroyed by himself, Wu Sansheng is afraid that he will have insomnia at night when he sleeps. Going down to see the old man will probably be scolded to death.

Fortunately, God bless, no!Fortunately, this kid has found a master, otherwise this time it is estimated that his Wu family will be the last one, Wu Sanxing was afraid for a while in retrospect, and also regretted the decision to take this kid to the grave on a whim.
