Chapter 143 Shark Head
"In this case, let's light it for peace of mind!" As soon as Hu Ming finished speaking, the fat man had already taken out three candles from his bag and placed them in the tomb one by one. The corner of the wall is lit.
The candles are burning normally...
“Okay, let’s open the coffin!”
At this moment, a gap has just been opened in the golden coffin’s coffin lid, and a stream of Black air rushed towards my face.
Fortunately, they had put on their gas masks and hadn't taken them off yet.
Accompanied by a puff of black smoke, after waiting for a long time, no movement was seen from the body in the coffin.
Hu Ming opened the lid of the coffin and saw that lying in the golden coffin was a headless body!
After the black air dissipated, Hu Ming finally saw After seeing clearly the corpse inside, the clothes he was wearing could no longer tell what age he was from.
The rotten body was attached to the dark body in the coffin.
"Where's the head...where is the head?"
Before he had time to see if there were Muchen Beads in the coffin, Hu Ba was stunned and asked slowly.
“Did someone chop him up?”
Xueli Yang pointed to the wooden coffin next to him and said, “Is his head in the coffin next to him?”< br>
“That’s really possible.”
"Otherwise, let's do it without stopping and open them all!" The fat man said and was about to open the wooden coffin on the ground.
But he was stopped by Hu Ming.
“Wait a minute!”
“What’s wrong, Mingzi?”
At this moment, Hu Ming pointed to the wooden coffin on the ground and said.
"The patterns on this coffin are either phoenixes or birds. It turns out that there is a female corpse parked inside!"
"Female corpses can easily transform into corpses after the coffin is opened!" However, at this moment, Yang Shirley didn't listen at all. During their conversation, they were focused on searching for the Muchen Bead under the body of the golden coffin.
"No! How could there be no!"
"It seems that Muchen Bead is not here anymore!"
Yang Shirley didn't believe it, but there was nothing else in the golden coffin. There was nothing else except the dark, headless corpse! Realizing this, Yang Xueli was slightly absent-minded, and whispered softly, "How could this be? If there is nothing here, then wouldn't we?" Will it never be found?”
The fat man glanced at Yang Xueli and stepped forward to persuade him: "I told you, Staff Yang, don't be too discouraged! If it doesn't work this time, there will be a next time! At least, let's do it once. How about I tell you something later?"
Yang Shirley was not interested in those bright weapons at all. She glanced at the fat man and said nothing. All she thought about was what to do next.
Hu Bayi glanced at Yang Xueli at this time, couldn't help but sigh, and said nothing.
And Hu Ming naturally would not let go of such a good opportunity.
Now that King Xian’s body is in front of him, only one head is missing. There must be something wrong here, and he must find it!
At this moment, the flare in the corner had gradually lost its light, and the tomb gradually became darker.
As the surrounding light dimmed, the flames on the candles lit by the fat man became particularly conspicuous.
"Fat man...how many candles did you light just now?" At this moment, Shirley Yang's voice suddenly rang out.
I don’t know why, but there was a slight tremor in Yang Xueli’s voice, as if she had seen something terrible.
The fat man still didn’t know what happened, and felt that Yang Xueli’s question was a bit baffling.
"I lit three candles, what's wrong?"
At this moment, all the candles were in the corner, and none of them were extinguished. However, Shirley Yang slowly raised her hand and pointed in a direction in the tomb.
“But what is that?”
Hu Bayi looked over and saw that there were not only Fatty’s three candles in the dark tomb, but also that one beside the wall of the tomb. A row of will-o'-the-wisps with faint blue light. "...When did this light up..."
The fat man opened his mouth in disbelief and said in surprise.
This kind of fire is not the same as the dark yellow light emitted by candles, but a dark blue, which is not bright either.
So, just now, under Yang Xueli's flare, no one saw this weird blue light at all. As for when it was ignited, no one noticed at all.
“This color…”
“This can’t be a will-o’-the-wisp!”
The fat man looked at the dark blue and thought of the legendary will-o'-the-wisp, and said with some doubt.
At this moment, Hu Bayi turned on the searchlight in his hand and walked towards the ghost fire without hesitation. In his opinion, these things were just a trick played by King Xian.
Hu Ming stood still when he was still three or four meters away from the blue light, and the searchlight illuminated the front.
What I saw was a face embedded in the wall, but it was not human.
It was a face covered with scales. A bloody mouth opened wide, revealing terrifying fangs.
The place where the will-o'-the-wisp burned was in the mouth of the human face. There were no lips on the mouth, only two rows of teeth, shaped like shark's teeth, sharp and sharp.
When the fat man saw this strange face, he said: "What kind of animal does this seem to be?"
"It has scales, could it be some kind of fish?"
"Or... it is. What evil spirit?" Hu Ming continued to lean in and looked at the face on the wall. He felt that it didn't look like it was carved into it, but rather like it was sealed on the wall.
Looking at that thing's face again, it was covered with things that looked like fish scales.
Hu Ming thought, he probably knew what it was.
“It’s not an evil ghost, this should be a shark!”
“A shark?”
“Yes, a black-scaled shark.”
Shirley Yang had never seen this before.
Fatty, on the other hand, has never seen this thing before, and has never even heard of it. Black-scaled shark? What is that? He has only heard of mermaids!
Hu Bayi touched his chin and said: "I didn't expect that I could see such a thing. I've only seen it in books. What did the fat man say about mermaids? Are they the same thing? I don’t know!”
“And this one has black scales, which is even rarer!”
Hu Ming nodded, and reached out to lift the shark’s chin to look at it. , and then said: "There are gills on the neck, and there are black scales all over the body except around the belly."
"By the way, their bodies seem to have been treated with special means, and there are chains on them. , it seems that this has been made into a lantern!"
When he said this, Hu Ming also deliberately looked back at the fat man and said.
"Fat man, you are lucky!"
"You really get whatever you want, isn't this the ever-lasting light you have been thinking about for a long time?"
"What, do you want it? Take one back?"
The fat man glanced at the shriveled shark on the wall that looked like it had been made into dried fish. He felt sick in his heart and waved his hands quickly.
The fat man said, "Damn it, Mingzi, why are you imitating Lao Hu! I don't want it, this thing looks too disgusting, I'd better keep it for myself!"
However, Yang Xueli, who was on the side, saw this kind of thing for the first time. She also heard Qin Yu say that this was the legendary ever-burning lantern, and she was very curious.
"The Ever-Bright Lamp is made of this kind of shark? Can it really burn for thousands of years?"
"Well, this is my first time seeing this thing.", Hu Bayi He held her hand and said.
