The Night Watchman of Siheyuan

Chapter 196 Opening the Coffin

"Fatty, don't move or someone might die."

Fatty Wang's hand froze instantly, stopping less than a centimeter away from the child.

"Hoo ho ho ho"

Hu Bayi was gasping for breath, feeling extremely uneasy.

This fat guy is really unreliable. Can things in the tomb be moved at will?

If any accident happened, they would have to be buried with Fatty Wang.

Fatty Wang looked at Hu Bayi's fuss and withdrew his hand.

"I say, Lao Hu, they are just two clay sculptures, why are you so timid?"

"Alright, alright, I won't move."

After saying that, Fatty Wang stepped back and stretched out his hand for Hu Bayi to continue leading the way.

Hu Bayi looked at Fatty Wang's nonchalant look and had no intention of leading the way, so he started cursing immediately.

"Fatty, do you want to kill us?"

"The tomb is full of traps. If we're not careful, we'll die here. Did you know that?"

"Can you be more careful? Isn't what we just discovered a lesson enough?"

Fatty Wang originally wanted to refute, they are just two clay sculptures, what’s the big deal?

But when Fatty Wang heard Hu Bayi talking about what had just happened, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

"Old Hu, I haven't encountered it yet. Is there really any problem?"

"Now you are afraid, what were you doing before?"

Having said that, Hu Bayi still took a few steps forward and began to observe the two clay sculptures carefully.

The more he looked, the more solemn Hu Bayi's expression became, and he almost fell to the ground.

Then he remembered that Fatty Wang had not been touched just now, and he relaxed a little.

What kind of clay sculpture? These are clearly two corpses.

Even if the corpse is soaked in mercury, it will not decay and will not fade even after thousands of years.

If Hu Bayi guessed correctly, the child who appeared just now should be the soul of the two little men.

After death, he was imprisoned in this place as the gatekeeper of the tomb.

The method was so cruel that it directly cut off the chance of reincarnation.

Mercury, plus the corpse gas, if Fatty Wang had been exposed to it just now, even the tomb-grabbing talisman might not have been able to save Fatty Wang's life.

The tomb-grabbing talisman only works on negative energy and cannot control toxins.

Fatty Wang saw that Hu Bayi didn't respond for a long time and thought that something had happened to Hu Bayi, so he asked quickly.

"Lao Hu, Lao Hu, are you okay?"

"what?"

"I am fine."

Hu Bayi came to his senses and decided to explain the seriousness of the matter to Fatty Wang, otherwise Fatty Wang would definitely cause trouble.

Thinking of this, Hu Bayi said to Fatty Wang with a serious face: "Fatty, it's a good thing you didn't move just now, otherwise something serious would have happened."

"Ah, no way?" Fatty Wang was a little unconvinced, and added uncertainly: "Is it so dangerous?"

"Danger?"

"You almost lost your life just now, tell me if it's dangerous or not."

"These are not clay sculptures at all. These are two corpses."

Upon hearing this, Fatty Wang’s pupils immediately contracted. Is he going to die?

"It's all the fault of this stinky hand. There was nothing to do but just bang it around. It almost caused an accident."

Fatty Wang cursed himself in his heart, but still felt unsatisfied, so he wanted to slap himself in the face.

But after thinking about it, it was too painful and I couldn't bear to be cruel to myself.

But things have to be resolved, they still have to go in.

Since Hu Bayi knows it so clearly, he should have a solution.

"Old Hu, what should we do now?" Fatty Wang asked Hu Bayi a soul-searching question.

Hu Bayi thought about it for a while, and finally he felt kind-hearted and waved his hand to offer a solution.

"Wrap them up in clothes, and when you get out, find a place to bury them."

"Take them with you?"

"Yes, just think of it as a good deed. They are all miserable people too."

"Then, then, then we won't be in any danger, right?"

Hearing this, Hu Bayi was embarrassed. He didn't know either.

Fortunately, Ye Tian stepped forward and pasted two talismans on the clay sculpture.

"Okay, that's all. Let's get going quickly. It's almost dawn, and we haven't found the main tomb yet."

After getting Ye Tian’s assurance, Hu Bayi and Wang Fatty wrapped the two clay sculptures with clothes, put them on their backs, and then continued on their journey.

After a few minutes, they finally arrived at the main tomb chamber.

Looking at the heavy coffin in front of him, Fatty Wang's eyes were full of stars.

"Open the coffin quickly, we'll see all the good stuff inside."

That’s right. Along the way, Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi haven’t gotten anything except the junk picked up by Ye Tian.

Fatty Wang took off his equipment, took out a crowbar and prepared to open the coffin.

Hu Bayi's scalp tingled after watching this. It felt like he had introduced Fatty Wang all the way, but Fatty Wang didn't remember anything and only knew how to make money. He was nothing else.

Are they tomb robbers?

Okay, they were indeed tomb robbers, but they were also tomb robbers with a tradition of thieves, how could they be so careless?

"Old Hu, don't just stand there, come and help me, I can't do it alone."

Hu Bayi was still sighing, but he didn't expect that Fatty Wang had already taken action, and almost scared Hu Bayi to death.

"Let go, let go quickly."

"let go?"

"Let go. I told you not to move. If there's a trap, someone could die."

"okay."

For the sake of his own life, Fatty Wang immediately let go and kept a certain distance from the coffin, only then did he feel relieved.

Fatty Wang's recklessness almost made Ye Tian laugh.

It’s really not easy for Fatty Wang to survive in the original book despite what he did.

Hu Bayi did not continue to attack. While giving instructions to Fatty Wang, he started to take action.

"We are orthodox tomb raiders, not low-level tomb robbers."

"According to the tradition of tomb raiders, a candle must be lit in the southeast corner of the coffin before opening the tomb. Only when the candle is not extinguished can the coffin be opened to take out the item, but only one item can be taken."

"If the candle goes out, it means the tomb owner doesn't welcome us. We can't move anything, otherwise it will cause the corpse to regenerate."

Hu Bayi was serious about what he said, but Fatty Wang didn't take it to heart at all.

If you take out something and then put it back, wouldn't that be a waste of time?

After confirming that the candle was not extinguished and no mechanism was found on the coffin, Hu Bayi called on Fatty Wang to take action.

"Okay, get ready to open the coffin, but you must do as I said just now."

"understand."

When he heard that the museum could be opened, Fatty Wang didn't care what Hu Bayi said and just agreed to it.

He immediately joined up with Hu Bayi, and the two of them worked together to pry the coffin lid open.

"One, two, come on."

"One, two, hard."

Suddenly, the color of the candle flame changed, and a hint of green light was mixed in with the originally bright flame.

Hu Bayi and Wang Fatty were busy opening the coffin, so naturally they didn't notice anything.

But Ye Tian naturally noticed all of this, and if nothing unexpected happened, he would turn into a zombie.
