Chapter 1397 Tomb of Cloths
"It's really the tomb of General Guo..." The shock in Li Bai's eyes was gradually covered up by a touch of fear, "Didn't you say that he died in the Spring God Lake? How...how is the corpse Buried here?”
It is taboo to bury the generals of the previous dynasty in one's own mansion. Once other officials of the dynasty know about it, Tianwei will be furious in a memorial, and the Marquis of Zhennan may not be able to explain it. Everyone will know clearly. I feel that there must be a big unknown secret hidden in it.
Jiang Cheng looked up and looked around. Under the cover of layers of grass, there were hundreds of graves nearby. These people were obviously from the previous dynasty. They were most likely the so-called soldiers who died following General Guo. Who would have thought that the bodies of the generals and soldiers on Spring God Lake would be buried in the Hou Mansion.
"What to do now? We have been away long enough, if we don't go back..."
Seeing that the sky was getting darker, Li Bai became worried about the situation here. Besides, there was only Mr. Zhang left in the room. If the situation changed, he might not be able to cope with it alone.
"It's not possible now. Let's find some handy tools. I want to open the coffin."
As soon as Jiang Cheng finished speaking, Yao, Shun, Yu, Li Bai and Fatty were all shocked, "Open the coffin." "Coffin?" The fat man was so frightened that his face changed. He just pulled out someone's tombstone, and now he wants to open the coffin. Does he really think that the former General Guo has no temper?
Yao, Shun, and Yu frowned, as if they had realized something, "Do you suspect that there is an empty coffin buried underneath?"
"Whether it is empty or not, we need to open the coffin to see. Once we take a look, if there is a body inside, then we will check to see if the body died from a frontal stab wound or a plot by a villain."
It is not difficult to understand what Jiang Cheng said. The Marquis of Zhennan would choose to go to such great lengths to use the Thunderwood Death Card to suppress these innocent souls. This cannot be explained by a simple night battle. Moreover, it is said that General Guo is extremely brave and his troops are even more powerful. It's like the God of Death came to the world. How could such a group of brave and skilled warriors who left the dynasty helpless were completely wiped out in a water battle? There must be something to this.
Jiang Cheng first suspected Zhennan Hou. General Guo and his party might have been plotted by a villain.
Although worried, everyone understood that what Jiang Cheng said made sense, so the group found some thick branches nearby, which they found handy, and returned to the tomb of General Guo to start digging.
To everyone's surprise, it didn't take long to dig out a coffin. The coffin was buried surprisingly shallow, and this coffin... was actually buried upside down. In other words, the coffin was buried upside down. The back is up and the coffin lid is down.
"What's going on?" The fat man was sweating all over from his busy work. This thing was getting more and more weird. "We...we should withdraw first and come back when we choose a good day." …”
Yao, Shun, Yu, and Li Bai also had the same worries. It would be fine if the coffin was empty, but if...if there really was a corpse inside, looking at this situation, once the coffin is opened, there is no telling what trouble will happen.
"We can't dig any more. Bury the coffin upside down. The corpse inside may be filled with resentment. Let's go back and discuss it later." Li Bai also advised. She had an unspeakable fear of this coffin. .
But this time, Jiang Cheng's attitude was very firm, "Everyone, I know what you are worried about, and I am worried too, but the coffin must be opened. Even if it is not opened this time, it will be opened next time. We must It is crucial to determine how General Guo died."
The fat man gritted his teeth. , jumped into the dug pit, grabbed one end of the coffin with both hands, "Then stop talking nonsense, come on, lend a hand, and turn the coffin over!"
The coffin feels quite heavy, and There was a slight shaking feeling inside. When the coffin lid was opened, a corpse wearing general armor was exposed in front of several people.
The corpse of General Guo wore a ferocious mask on his face, and matched with the armor, there was a hint of weirdness in his might.
But after the coffin was opened, the corpse inside did not have a trace of putrid smell, because it was not a real corpse at all, but a wooden man wearing armor.
“It’s a tomb.” Li Bai whispered.
After Jiang Cheng stretched out his hand to remove the mask on the wooden man's face, the face below was truly horrifying. The wooden man's face had distorted features, almost half of his face was sunken, and there were terrifying scars on it.
This is not caused by the rot of the wood, but by the carver who carved it early. The exquisite carving gives this wooden man an indescribable weirdness.
"What's going on? Is it because General Guo is cursed to live a restless life after death, or...or is General Guo just like this?" The fat man became more and more confused.
On the contrary, Jiangcheng Li Bai and the three of them took a breath at the same time, as if they thought of something at the same time. Li Bai pursed his lips and was the first to walk outside, where there was a tombstone.
"Where are you going?" Fatty asked anxiously.
Li Bai directly pulled out the tombstone and started to dig the grave. Yao and Shunyu of Jiangcheng also went to help. Soon, another coffin was dug out. After opening the coffin, there was also no body inside, but A wooden man wearing armor, but to Fatty's surprise, this wooden man's face was also covered with a mask.
Revealing the mask, this wooden man's face is even more terrifying. The whole face is strangely concave, the nose has disappeared, and there are only two holes left in its place. The mouth is wide open, as if helpless. roared.
Seeing this, Jiang Cheng put down his mask and took a deep breath, "It's true, no wonder... No wonder General Guo's subordinates have such strong combat effectiveness. In front of the two armies, one against a hundred, they cracked the armor with bare hands and swung away with one punch. Of course ordinary people can't do this, but the disciples can."
The fat man also reacted at this moment, his mouth opened wider than the wooden man, "Oh shit! General Guo...they are disciples!" Staring at the twisted face of the wooden man, Fatty finally understood the problem, "No wonder they look like this, they are all corrupted by the door."
General Guo led a personal army composed entirely of disciples. Just thinking about it, the scene was daunting. Fatty was even a little lucky in his heart. Fortunately, they were all dead.
But then, another more important question popped up, "No, look at the tombs nearby. There are at least hundreds of people here. Where did General Guo get so many disciples?"
It was only after Fatty was exposed to high-end missions that he met more disciples. Each disciple is unique. The door is a gift and a curse. The number is not large. General Guo can do it. Yes, it looks like Chinese cabbage. Is this thing still productive?
"What you should be more concerned about is this group of monsters. How did the Marquis of Zhennan kill them all in one battle?" Jiang Cheng said, staring at the grimace in the coffin. (End of this chapter)
