The Queen of Jingjue asked me to go rob a tomb

Chapter 24

According to legend, during the Northern Song Dynasty, a strange thing happened in the waters of Wu Gorge.

On that day, old man Yuan, a local fisherman, went out to fish as usual.

When he reached a wide area of ​​water, the old man Yuan was about to get out of the net when he suddenly heard a thud coming from behind the boat.

Old man Yuan turned his head quickly, and saw a lot of waves on the water near the cliff.

Old man Yuan, who had been a fisherman all his life, felt something was wrong at the time. It must be a big fish to make such a big splash and noise.

But driven by curiosity, old man Yuan rowed the boat.

As a result, as soon as he approached, the old man's heart skipped a beat.

Because he saw a naked figure lying on the water.

The old man was terrified, and quickly salvaged the man onto the fishing boat with a fishing net.

Turning over the corpse, it turned out to be an old man.

What's even weirder is that the old man was completely naked and didn't wear a single piece of clothing.

Seeing his pity, old man Yuan found a flip board for a punting and simply covered the corpse.

After returning to the shore, old man Yuan reported the matter to the government.

Soon the body was taken away by the yamen servants. After the inspection, the old man did not show any signs of trauma or poisoning, and it was finally confirmed that he had committed suicide!

Not long after, someone came to identify the body.

Said to be the son of the dead.

According to his description, the old man has been missing for nearly ten years, but he didn't expect that when the father and son met again, it would be a time when Yin and Yang would be separated forever.

After hearing this, the county magistrate sighed for a while, and asked the son to take the body away.

As for why the old man disappeared for ten years?Suddenly naked and drowned in the water?
No question at all.

As a result, something went wrong that night.

The old man's son was sleeping soundly in the house, but was suddenly awakened by a dull thud.

It sounded like it was coming from the yard, like someone was knocking on the door.

But when he sat up and listened carefully again, the voice was actually coming from the mourning hall next door.

dong dong dong~
One after another echoed in the middle of the night, which scared him into a cold sweat.

You know, there is nothing in the mourning hall except his father's coffin, who made this sound?

The old man's son was frightened.

But after thinking about it again, it was my father who died. If something really happened, could it really hurt me?

So he bravely went to the mourning hall.

However, as soon as I arrived at the door, I heard a "bang dang" sound from the mourning hall,
It was like the sound of a coffin board falling to the ground!
The old man's son thought badly, there must be a thief in the house.

So he ran into the mourning hall in a hurry, but saw a terrifying scene that he would never forget in his life.

in the mourning hall,
A black figure slowly stood up from his father's coffin...

The black shadow trembled all over, indescribably weird.

suddenly,

The black shadow's back was raised high, as if something was about to come out of his body.

Slowly, his eyes widened and his face was full of pain.

click ~
The skin on the black shadow's back suddenly split open, and then a bluish-gray thing burst out of the body.

It is covered with a layer of scales, dripping liquid drop by drop,

suddenly,

It turned its head abruptly, and stared straight at the old man's son standing at the door.

Those eyes are like beasts.

The old man's son had never seen such a horrific scene, and he passed out as soon as he rolled his eyes.

When I woke up again, it was already daytime.

Recalling the weird scene last night, the old man's son hurried to the coffin to see his father's body.

But where are the corpses?

All that was left in the coffin was a broken shroud and a...human skin.

The human skin rested softly on the coffin board, deeply hurting the nerves of the middle-aged man.

Is this the skin that my father shed?

So that monster last night was his father?

In order to find out what was going on, the old man's son found old man Yuan, a fisherman.

Then, under the guidance of the old man Yuan, he came to the cliff where his father went down that day.

Standing on the top of the cliff and looking down, the man found a cave.

So I found a sling and slid down the cliff.

When standing in front of the cliff cave, the man found that the space inside was very narrow, not as big as he imagined.

But his intuition told him that his father must have been here before his death.

Moreover, the reason why my father disappeared for ten years and the strange things that happened to him are also very likely to be related to this place.

So he bravely walked in.

Not long after, the man found a lot of things left by humans inside.

Among them was the dress my father wore when he ran away from home ten years ago!
That's right,

Father must have lived here.

So the man continued to walk in, hoping to find more clues about his father.

Soon, he found a piece of human skin in a crack in the stone.

The human skin is covered with a thick layer of gray, which looks extremely old.

There is also a bamboo slip next to it.

When the man read the content on the bamboo slips, he immediately understood everything.

It turns out that there once lived a Taoist monk in this cliff cave.

Later, the man succeeded in cultivating Taoism, shed a piece of human skin, and became a god ever since.

And this bamboo slip recorded the way for the Taoist priest to shed his skin.

The old man must have discovered this place by accident and saw the secret on the bamboo slips.

So I secretly took the bamboo slips home and practiced when no one was around.

After some enlightenment, he left home at night and came to Fangya Cave to practice in seclusion.

Just like that, ten years have passed.

The old man died in the cave long ago, but for some reason, the body did not rot.

Maybe it has something to do with the exercises on the bamboo slips!
It wasn't until the corpse accidentally rolled into the river that it was salvaged by old man Yuan.

Unfortunately, the old man finally cast off his human skin and came back from the dead.

But my son just happened to see this scene!
The fat man shook his head after hearing this, "This is too fucking ridiculous! According to what you say, the corpse in the iron coffin has also shed its skin and turned into a fairy?"

Lu Zihan smiled, "It's not that simple to become a fairy, it's just a corpse transformation!"

Hu Ba nodded, "When the old man's son learned the truth, he burned the bamboo slip because he could never forget what he saw that night.

My father is covered in scales and dripping with disgusting mucus. If this can be regarded as becoming a fairy, then the fairy is just a group of monsters! "

"Of course, it is also possible that the exercise on the bamboo slips is indeed a kind of immortal family method. It's just that the old man's spiritual root is not enough, and his practice went wrong, so many people later called that exercise "immortal transformation"!"

The fat man asked, "In your opinion, did the corpse in the iron coffin become a god? Or a monster?"

Lu Zihan said directly, "It's probably a monster!"

"why?"

"Here!"

Lu Zihan pointed at the big iron coffin.

Following the direction of his finger, Fatty and Hu were shocked to find that there was a hole the size of a bucket at the other end of the iron coffin.

Look carefully at the edge, there are many traces of nail scratches.

"Fuck! This corpse crawled out by itself?!"
