Chapter 7 Forty-first night human coffin

Ji Yan finally came back. I received his call this morning, but when I came to his house, it was a ten-year-old child who opened the door. The child is very handsome, but his eyes are cold. He is wearing a blue sportswear and a pink velvet hat. He looked at me without much surprise, put his hands in his pockets, and said something to me. come in. I walked in full of curiosity.Ji Yan is sitting on the sofa. Before I could ask him who that child was, unexpectedly he asked me first. "You must really want to know who this young man is, but let me tell you about the experience of the past few days first." Ji Yan looked a little haggard, it seems that this New Year is not very comfortable.I buried my body in the thick and soft sofa, tried to put on a suitable posture, and began to concentrate on listening to him.

The boy looked at us disdainfully, pulled the hat on his head to his eyes, and said coldly: "I'm not interested in your conversation. I'm going to rest in my room. Call me when I'm done talking." I thought about this child He really likes to play cool, but Ji Yan didn't mind at all, and nodded to the boy.But I always feel that this boy is very familiar. "I didn't expect that Yaqiong came to me for the human coffin." He began to speak, but his voice was a little low, and I vaguely remembered that Yaqiong seemed to be the pretty girl who came to pick up Ji Yan.But what is a human coffin?

Ji Yan saw my question and naturally explained it to me. "Chinese people attach great importance to coffins. The so-called birth, old age, sickness and death, red and white happiness. Sometimes the coffin is more important than the housing when you are alive. The so-called poor people's homes, the old people will set aside a sum of money, so young people save their daughter-in-law. The elderly keep the coffin book. Don't underestimate this wooden box that is only a few feet long. For some people, it is more important than other things. There are many types of coffins. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "wear in Suzhou, play in Hangzhou, eat in Guangzhou, and live long in Liuzhou." Longevity lives in Liuzhou, which actually refers to the coffins in Liuzhou. There are leaders in all walks of life, and the coffin maker is the same. "I couldn't help laughing when I heard this, but Ji Yan stopped me with a serious face.

"Today, coffins are not only used for burying people. Because the Chinese superstitiously believe that coffins and coffins are homophonic for promotion and fortune, many people order some exquisite small coffins for decoration." I finally couldn't help it, and couldn't help asking him, what does this have to do with Ji Yan being invited away by that girl. "Yaqiong took me there just to show me a coffin, a very peculiar coffin." Ji Yan raised her head and looked at me with sharp eyes. "Oh? How strange? Could it be a coffin made of gold?" I joked. "It would be nothing unusual if the gold and crystal coffin arrived. What's interesting is that this coffin doesn't lose gold or wood, but people." He made a rectangular gesture.

It's a joke, coffins are filled with people, so there is no reason for someone to make a coffin.I tilted my head noncommittally, Ji Yan saw that I didn't believe it, and continued. "Believe it or not, to be precise, there is actually a coffin outside the so-called human coffin, or it can be said that the buried person is actually wrapped in two coffins." "When I heard it in the car that day, I laughed just like you. I thought I was well-informed, and my father never mentioned the legend or thing about the coffin. But my father said, never think You are better than others, after all, you just see more than others. And when Yaqiong showed me the photos, I deeply felt that my knowledge was still too shallow.”

"Photos?" I asked in surprise, since there are photos, it seems that the human coffin is not empty talk.But Ji Yan didn't mean to take out the photo, but just shook her hand. "It's better not to look at that photo, even if someone like me looks at it, it will be horrified by it, it's not all scary or disgusting, it's just that after seeing it, I can't feel uncomfortable and weird. What is a human coffin? From a literal point of view, of course it is a coffin made of a human being. The Qi family is not a wealthy family. Their family made their fortune in the early years of the Republic of China, and heroes emerged in troubled times. Although Mr. Qi is not a hero, he is definitely a smart person.He made a lot of money by collecting antiques and reselling them.In fact, according to my father, the collection of the Qi family is actually a deal with tomb robbers, collecting the things in the ancient tomb at a price much lower than the market and selling them back. This is easier said than done. Those who come to rob tombs are not good people. Second, if you are caught stealing and reselling antiques, you will also have to face a lawsuit. These two points are clear, and the third point, which is also the most important, is the purification process of antiques leaving ancient tombs.

We call it purification. In fact, the Qi family called it "falling skin" which refers to letting an expert get rid of the unclean things on it, but everything went very smoothly. Disaster, so even in the chaotic era, he can escape unscathed. The car drove Yaqiong and me for almost half a day before we came to a very remote place. I vaguely remember that this is a private residential area, and no one is allowed to enter without a pass.Because the terrain here is peculiar, it is a concave washbasin shape, and a small river winds and circles next to it. Tai Chi gossip diagrams are just rumors.

But the wealth of the Qi family really blew my tongue. From the downhill, I saw a building or a huge housing area. The first thing I saw was a copper gate with a pattern of more than ten meters long. On both sides of the gate, there were endless marble walls that could not be seen. There are huge round glass on the top of the wall, etc., and exquisite positive reliefs are carved on the wall.Two old men in security clothes struggled to open the heavy copper door. I don't understand why the two old men were asked to do such heavy physical work, but before I thought about it, the real appearance of the house was hidden in the ocean Gradually revealing the tip of an iceberg.It is more appropriate to say that it is a manor than a house.

In the middle is a huge fountain, four stories high, and each floor is different. There are colorful lights installed at the bottom of the pool. The lights of different colors shine from the bottom of the water and overlap with the sprayed pool water.But I always feel that there are very few people in such a big place, even if outsiders are less responsible for the people working here, it should be a little bit.Both sides are semi-concentric structures, planted with a lot of vegetation and vegetation, the whole terrain is sloping, and the houses are built at the lowest point. I thought to myself that there is such a building there, and it will be flooded when it rains.

"The human coffin was transported from my hometown by my father a few years ago. Since my father, the family has stopped designing antiques, but I still have a hobby of collecting. But this human coffin was handed down from my grandfather. Because they were placed in our hometown before, we brought the human coffin back after we built a new home. In fact, it is said to be ancestral, but the family rules are strict, and only the adults who request the human coffin are absolutely not allowed to touch it. So my father and I are very curious about this So I opened the coffin and took these photos, but then the strange things continued.” The car drove around the fountain and entered a narrow strip of shade, the branches and leaves beside it were too lush, could it be that the round people here are lazy .Finally stopped in front of a tall black building, Yaqiong got out of the car and said while leading me in.The stairs are beautiful, oval, and also made of black marble, smooth enough to be a mirror.

When getting out of the car, Yaqiong saw the back of the car opened and reminded the driver. The driver explained that he had gone down to get cleaning tools when he stopped at my house just now, but he said strangely that he had locked it tightly. Although the outside of the house has the style of a medieval European palace, the inside is a typical Chinese style, but most of them are in black tones, which makes it a little uncomfortable to see.However, the ancient paintings on the walls and the ceramic bronze statues and other antiques make me feel like I am in a museum.My footsteps echoed inside, too, eerily quiet, and I saw no one moving. In the room on the left, I saw the human coffin. As I told you, although I have seen photos at the beginning, I still feel very shocked to see this with my own eyes.The outside is a dark wooden coffin, very thick, with many exquisite patterns on it, but the age is estimated to be too long, and it is already blurred.The coffin is a four-layer plywood type, and the middle of each layer is hollow, with two layers of about 3 mm. It is estimated that a large amount of preservatives such as lime are filled in the middle.And there were two people lying in the coffin.One of them is naturally the human coffin I mentioned.Yaqiong seemed a little frightened, but she just stood far away, while I observed carefully beside the coffin. What I saw was a beautifully dressed female corpse.About 70 or 80 years old, very strange, wearing a fur warm hat on his head, wearing a Chinese cloth shirt and a red and black long skirt, the clothes of He Songchao are somewhat similar.But no matter what, she should have been dead for a long time, but she didn't have any limit of decay, her appearance was still very handsome, her face was thin, but there was an imperial air between her brows.Outside the body of the female corpse, there is another corpse wrapped, this one is probably a human coffin. At that time, a huge corpse was cut open from the middle, and the internal organs and bones of the whole person were hollowed out, that is to say, there was only a piece of skin left. The female corpse was hidden in the skin as if wearing clothes. It should have been sealed when it was opened, and it may have been pulled open by someone later.The skin of the human coffin on the outside is not rotten, and the body that wraps the head of the female corpse is also separated on both sides. It is really uncomfortable to look at from the side, because the face with only one eye, half nose and half mouth is really a bit awkward. nausea. I was very surprised how the human skin was cut in the middle while keeping the original appearance so intact. Judging from the appearance of the man on the outside as a human coffin and the female corpse inside, both of them seem to be ethnic minorities, especially the female corpse. It seems that the status should be very high, and her right wrist was severed. No right wrist?I wondered for a while, and I couldn't remember it. "Go and rest first, I have other things to tell you." Yaqiong didn't seem to be very willing to stay here, and the two of them went to the side hall on the third floor, where meals were prepared, and she and I chatted while eating. "This coffin can't be all that. It can be seen that the owner's status was relatively prominent during his lifetime, so there should be a lot of funerary objects. However, since the coffin has been opened for so long, it has not rotted at all, and the human coffin outside has no signs of rot. When I mentioned the human coffin, I thought of the thin human leather coat I saw just now, and there were jellyfish skins in the food, which was really disgusting.Yajun nodded. "Actually, I was going to tell you that after the person who excavated this coffin sold the burial objects in it, this coffin was not easy to deal with, but grandpa insisted on buying it at a high price, and kept it in our hometown. in the temple. But since the coffin was moved here, things have gotten weird. " I'm a little puzzled, I can see that nothing major happened here. "First of all, my father dismissed many employees and personally recruited a group of girls, and then in the days that followed, people would often disappear from here." Yaqiong said slowly.I finally understand why there are so few people here. "Missing? Didn't you call the police?" I asked her.Yajun shook his head. "Originally there were nearly a hundred people here, including servants, gardeners, security guards, etc., but after strange things happened, the missing disappeared, and escaped. Except for some loyal old employees of the Qi family who were willing to stay, there are not many people in this place. I'm alone." Yaqiong looked sad, but then again, I haven't seen her father. "Is your father alright?" I tentatively asked, but Yaqiong stood up, pacing towards me with a chanting song. "That's the real reason I'm looking for you." She smiled wryly, "My father has been bedridden since the coffin was moved here. He hardly eats anything, doesn't talk much, and locks himself in the room Here, even for me, on weekdays, I ask three questions and he only answers one." After leaving the dining table, I proposed to meet Mr. Qi, but was rejected, and Yaqiong had no choice. She said that her father often locked herself in the room to read books or look at the photos of human coffins.I know very little about human coffins, and I can't figure out why, so I had to go around under the guidance of Yaqiong. The manor is very large, with an architectural pattern in the shape of a character. The main building in front is rectangular. This is where the Qi family, father and daughter, and important antique collections and the living room are located. The left back is the resting place for the people who work here.As for the right rear, it has actually been idle. It has been less than a month since the human coffin was moved, and more than a dozen people have disappeared, and most of the rest have resigned. Master Qi did not stop them, but everyone received a generous severance package.Most of the people left now are old people. "Is there a list of missing persons?" I asked Yaqiong, and she gave me the list and photos.Most of these people are from poor families. Since the family members of the missing people can get a large amount of compensation, they will not cause trouble. Injuries all over the body and even sacrificed their lives did not get a penny of wages. There was no way to sue upwards, and the request was rejected. In comparison, the Qi family seemed quite generous and benevolent. They were all young people, and most of them were women. "You said that most of the people in the manor except you are old people now?" I asked Yaqiong, she thought for a while and nodded in agreement. Yaqiong told me that the human coffin was escorted by a young man. At that time, Master Qi was surprised that such an important thing was transported by himself after a long journey.The young man and Master Qi entered the room and talked for a long time. When he came out, Master Qi's expression changed, he was anxious to open the coffin, and then he became like this. "Young man?" I asked.Yaqiong looked up and thought for a while, then replied affirmatively. "Yes, a young man with silver hair and a handsome appearance. He wears a white suit and brown glasses. To be honest, he is very eye-catching, so I have a deep impression on him. But I always feel that he is a bit dark, and his eyes ..." "What happened to the eyes?" "No pupils." Yaqiong replied in a low voice. "Li Zheng?" I couldn't help shouting when I heard this.Ji Yan nodded and said: "I thought the same as you at the time, but I wasn't sure. After all, I just listened to Yaqiong's description, so I didn't show too much surprise. It turned out later that my thinking was Correct." Ji Yan continued. I continued to ask about the whereabouts of the silver-haired young man, and Yaqiong said in embarrassment that he had delivered the coffin and left.Do not know whereabouts. Since I couldn't find that person, I decided to start with the female corpse in the human coffin.After finding the necessary tools and obtaining Master Qi's approval, he began to carefully examine the female corpse. Peeling off that layer of human coffin is really not a good job. First of all, the remaining fat on the edge of the skin has firmly adhered to the clothes. With a little force, the clothes will be torn to pieces. Down. When it fell off halfway, I saw a strange totem tattoo on the chest of the man outside as a human coffin. It's a wolf head. To be precise, it should be half a wolf's head. It was turned inside at the beginning, so I didn't pay attention. Now, I know who is lying inside. But this guess is too incredible, no, it can be said to be absurd.How could such a famous person be buried in this way, and her body has not decomposed, her tomb should be very luxurious, why is there nothing in the wooden coffin, even if it was done by grave robbers, but the body has passed through the air for so long. A little different. I didn't completely strip the human coffin, but just removed the upper part, and there were still six silver needles stuck in the back of the female corpse's neck. If I think the same, then the silver needles and the special interlayer anti-corrosion design of the coffin can all explain it.The question is why the Qi family value this coffin so much. "Know what?" Yaqiong asked with concern when she saw me coming out.I waved my hand because I didn't want to scare her for the time being.She lowered her head in disappointment. "Although my great-great-great-grandfather and grandfather were extremely wealthy, they have been plagued by illness for many years. They often said that the reselling of antiquities offended the gods, so they have been looking for ways to avoid the curse, but they all died in pain in the end. The members of the Qi family Ding is not prosperous, my father is the only son, and I am his only offspring, so my father's greatest hope is that I grow up safely. But now he is bedridden, but I can only watch, there is nothing I can do "After dinner, I chatted with Yaqiong in the garden, and naturally talked about her family affairs, and when we talked about sad things, she actually shed tears.It happened to be the 29th day of the new year, but the Qi family didn't have any festive atmosphere at all.Yaqiong begged me to spend the Spring Festival with her, so I simply didn't come back. It's also strange. It seems that since I came here, it has become much more lively and quieter. Of course, people in the kitchen will also report that they often lose a little food, which may be extremely hungry wild cats.But I would go to observe the human coffin every few hours to see if there was anything unusual. I haven't had a chance to meet Master Qi these days.Finally, on the night of New Year's Eve, he said that he was in better health and that I could meet him. Mr. Qi’s room is almost the same size as my house. It is more than ten meters away from the door to his bed. The floor is covered with a high-grade Persian carpet, and there is no sound when walking on it. This is also what he requested. It is said that he is ill. Master Hou Qi was very afraid of the sound of footsteps. "Sit down." The voice was a little tired, but there was still a bit of the dignity of an elder. After all, he was my elder and was once a well-known figure in the business world. Although he was ill, he still unconsciously maintained his original state. Some majesty. I bowed my back and sat on the head of his bed. "Counting it all together, your father and I haven't seen each other for fifteen years, but it's a pity that he traveled westward one step earlier than me, but he has a son like you, so he can be regarded as smiling." Master Qi supported his body with his elbows. , as if sliding back down at any time.I made a few excuses modestly, and he smiled. "Yaqiong is also very good, very filial to you." I talked about his daughter, but he showed displeasure. "A daughter is a daughter after all. Sooner or later, the Qi family's huge family business will fall into the hands of outsiders. If I can always maintain the physique of my youth, I don't care if I have a son or not." Master Qi's words made me feel cold. It turned out that Yaqiong It turned out to be such a position in his heart. "By the way, this human coffin is much more trustworthy. From the state of the female corpse in the coffin, my nephew speculates that she may be Empress Yelu Abaoji, Taizu of the Liao Dynasty." I got to the point, Master Qi's eyes were dull look at me. "Go on." "The Liao Kingdom's medical skills are very developed, especially in acupuncture and embalming. In addition, the wave pattern on the chest of the human coffin is also unique to the Liao people, and the most important thing is the right wrist of the female corpse. After the death of Taizu Liao, from the death of A Baoji to the The election of a new monarch, according to the traditions of the nomadic peoples during this period, the queen presides over the government affairs, that is, the queen is in charge of affairs, and the heir must be elected by the queen's general assembly. Therefore, after Abaoji's death, the queen's power is even greater When she grows up, her opinion will often play a decisive role. The Queen of the Law is in charge of the government, and temporarily still holds the military and political power. However, at this time, the Queen of the Law wants to hold the power permanently. So, she took a series of measures. After burying Abaoji, she presided over a meeting of the Khitan nobles to recommend an heir, abolished the crown prince Yelubei, the eldest son established by Abaoji, and chose Yelu Deguang to succeed him according to her own wishes.The empress laid the foundation for her own real power. Then, there is the elimination of dissidents. This queen did a very beautiful thing, forcing even the most bloodthirsty man to bow his head and surrender sincerely: Ruthless, you are ruthless.At that time, Zhao Siwen and other important ministers refused to accept the control. In order to stabilize the court, she ordered them to be buried for Taizu A Baoji on the grounds that "close courtiers should follow and serve Taizu" as an excuse. Eliminate political enemies.Zhao Siwen retorted her: "There is no one close to the Queen Mother. Why didn't the Queen Mother die?" Seeing her face indifferent, she swung the golden knife, cut off her right hand, put it in the Taizu's coffin, and said, "My sons and daughters!" You can't leave your mother when you are young, and you can't follow each other underground for a while, and replace it with your hands." Zhao Siwen and others had no choice but to sacrifice all of them for the Taizu, so that the imperial line of the Liao Kingdom could be passed on smoothly. , Since then, Empress Dowager Xiao has also been nicknamed "Queen of Broken Wrist". "I talked non-stop, paying attention to Master Qi's reaction. But he just lowered his almost bald head and didn't speak for a long time. "Actually, I already knew that she was the Empress Dowager Xiao from the burial items and clothing. But I have never heard of her being buried in a human coffin." Finally, he spoke, and I listened carefully. "The origin of the human coffin lies in the ancient legends of the Liao Kingdom. As long as a suitable person is dug out of all internal organs, bones and muscles through complicated screening, and wrapped in a skin cage, the person who is buried in the human coffin can not only keep The appearance before death, the body will not rot, and it is said that if a living person uses a human coffin, it will have even more strange effects." Speaking of this, Master Qi suddenly became energetic, and his eyes stared at me with a glint of greed.I quickly got up, said I would not disturb your rest, and then backed out of the room. It seems that Master Qi is fully aware of the origin and function of the human coffin.But where did the missing people in the manor go.The sky was getting dark gradually. Although it was Chinese New Year, this big place was empty and lifeless, not even a little red could be seen.The black clouds that are pressing down from the sky seem to destroy this place at any moment. After returning to the bedroom, a note appeared on the desk. The handwriting on it was beautiful, but it was definitely not Yaqiong's handwriting. "Come to the Central Fountain at seven o'clock sharp." No signature.I raised my hand and looked at my watch. It was half past six, and it was just right to leave now. Before leaving, Yaqiong told me that her father locked herself in the bedroom again and told no one to enter. She listened by the door, as if she was talking to someone.I don't have time to go, I must first know the origin of the note. Since it is in the fountain, where it is very wide, it may not be so easy to plot. At 6:50, it did take some time to walk from the bedroom. I didn't tell Yaqiong about the note, I just said that I wanted to go out for a walk, and she told me to come back quickly for dinner. However, I didn't expect that what I saw was a child. "Ji Yan turned her head, looked at the room, I pointed with my finger, and he nodded. "I naturally wanted to ask who he was, but the child didn't say a word, just put his hands in his pockets, turned his back and shook his hands, motioning for me to follow him. Such a child is really rare. His familiarity with the manor is much more than I imagined. It was like walking in the back garden of our own house. We soon came to the back of the building where Mr. Qi lived. The child walked over and touched the wall. There was a hole the size of a door.Below are the stairs leading down to the basement. "Let's go, the answers you need and the things I need are below." The child finally spoke, and there was no childish voice at all, which did not match his cute face at all.I followed him into the basement. The tunnel was very dark, and I kept groping forward, but the child's footsteps were very regular, which showed that the darkness did not affect his walking at all. A strong smell of blood suddenly wafted from the front.The smell filled the small space, even though I closed my nose hard, the smell penetrated through my pores. Snapped. The room suddenly lit up, and my eyes couldn't get used to it for a while, when the kid lit one torch, and then others. I saw a dead body.It is a young woman.But there was only one body here, and no other missing people were seen. "He brought all the missing people here and conducted strict inspections. All the female employees were personally selected by Mr. Qi. The first thing was their birthday, then their blood type, their physical health and many other messy indicators. All All of this is to select a suitable candidate for the human coffin." The child walked around the room step by step. I was surprised how he knew such details, the child smiled. "I came here with you. When the car was parked in front of your house, I got into the car. I put a piece of chewing gum in the lock, so I could easily open it and get out of the car. But I came here in a hurry, so I had to go to the car from the kitchen. Grab something to eat. It turned out that the very hungry wild cat was him. "Who the hell are you?" I can be sure that he is not a child, at least, he is not an ordinary child. "When I get what belongs to me, you will know who I am." He said without turning his head. I looked at the female corpse lying on the table, except for the wound on the wrist, there was nothing else. According to my judgment, she died of being bleed out of the whole body. "So you are here." A voice came from behind, not Master Qi's.I turned around, sure enough. Silver hair, a white suit, and as Ya Qiong said, this person's eyes really don't have pupils, they are gray and black.The most important thing is the thing that I am not familiar with resting on the shoulder, with a long and fat body and golden skin. Corpse control. The child also came over, looked at him coldly, and did not speak. Master Qi followed behind, he looked very energetic, he didn't look like a sick person at all, and he was hugging someone, I looked carefully and it turned out to be Yaqiong. "At that time, your daughter, do you want to use her as a human coffin?" The child's words shocked me. Master Qi was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and said nothing, his eyes were on the ground, it seemed to be true. "What are you afraid of? Aren't you always worried that you won't have a son to inherit after you die? If you can live forever, what do you want your descendants to do, then you can have as many daughters and sons as you like." The silver-haired man teased playfully. Master Qi, by the way, pushed the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose with his hand.In the secret room flickering with dim yellow fire, the five of us faced each other. "Forget it, Ji Yan, I think it's better to get rid of you. I wanted to play with you more. Although things will be more troublesome without your power, I always think that you will always be a disaster if you exist for one more day." The silver-haired man With a wave of his hand, the corpse control bug on his shoulder shattered and turned into countless small bugs, which burrowed into the ground and disappeared in one fell swoop. My feet feel the ground vibrating.A black hand came out from below and grabbed my ankle. Then came the second one, and then the third one, and the children who came with them were also held tightly. "I forgot to mention that there was originally a mass grave under this manor, and the control of corpse insects is very useful." The silver-haired man smiled.Turning around, he said to Master Qi who was in a daze. "The power of the shards won't last long. If you want to cure your illness completely, you should quickly make a human coffin." Master Qi nodded numbly, and put the fainted Yaqiong on the table. But I couldn't move at all. More and more dead bodies came out of the ground. The child and I were surrounded by black dead bodies. They were tightly strangling my neck and body. I could only see through the gaps. Master Qi picked up a knife from the side. I watched helplessly as Master Qi stretched out his scalpel towards his fair neck tremblingly. But the knife didn't cut it. A dazzling light came out from the pile of corpses, and all the corpses were bounced off. It was blown away by something.Suddenly felt a burst of relief. It turned out that the corpses all fell to the ground like falling apart.What's even more strange is that the scattered corpse-controlling insects gathered together again, but this time they didn't land on the shoulder of the silver-haired man, but beside the child, who stood upright in the middle of the corpse, with the The hat also fell off, revealing a head of very beautiful hair, which was also silver. The silver-haired man picked up a nail from the ground in surprise, and it was this nail that knocked down the scalpel, and the nail on the child's hand was facing Master Qi and the two of them. The child who came with him made a slit in the palm of his hand with a scalpel that fell on the ground with a look of disdain, and then covered the head of the corpse control insect obediently lying beside him. "The corpse control bug has only one master. Although it will temporarily obey you when you provide a corpse to it, when the real master appears, it will turn around without hesitation." The child said as he moved his hand away. I saw the word "positive" appearing on the head of the corpse control insect. I know who he is now.But still can't believe it. The silver-haired man smiled. "So you're here too. I didn't expect to meet the descendants of the Ji Li family at the same time." He looked at Master Qi who was trembling beside him, and sneered, "Forget it, I'm not stupid enough to be with you two at the same time." People are enemies, anyway, the fragments are almost purified." He took out his hand from his pocket, and it turned out to be a small black box. The silver-haired man opened the box and pointed it at Master Qi, but he saw that Master Qi opened his mouth, and a thin, one-inch-wide thing with black mist flew out and entered the box, and Master Qi seemed to have been pulled out. Like a soul, he collapsed to the ground. "It doesn't matter if the fragment was taken back last time. See you later." He put the box back. The child who manipulated the corpse control bug shot the nail out of his hand.The body of the silver-haired man gradually spread out like ink stains washed by water, and became transparent. When the last bit of body dissipated, his voice was still echoing in the secret room. "Next time, remember to be together so that I don't have to go looking for you." In the secret passage of the secret room, we found the missing people, but unfortunately, they seem to have lost their memory and lost a lot of blood.Master Qi soon came to life, but very weak, and later the doctor diagnosed him as seriously ill, and was amazed that he had not eaten for a long time, yet he was still alive.Maybe he survived by sucking a lot of human blood. We did not find out the identity of the girl who died on the operating table, so we had to bury her richly and send everyone home according to the files.The matter seemed to be over, but I still remembered the coffin. When I returned to the human coffin again, I found that Empress Dowager Xiao's body had quickly decayed and shriveled. It was very strange why the body would return to the previous time at that time. Human coffins may indeed have anti-corrosion effects. The Liao Kingdom did not exist for a long time, and it was a country established by ethnic minorities. However, it can be concluded from the surviving documents that the Liao people's medical skills have reached a legendary level. Perhaps However, living people may be able to live forever if they use human coffins.However, as for how to choose a suitable object for the human coffin, I am afraid little is known.
