The hero fell for the cannon fodder maid.

Everyone was a little confused. What did the secret guard see? Why was he trembling all over? It couldn't be something scary, right? The guards were very nervous. Several young masters from aristocratic families did not have the same idea as the guards.

Zhou Mu and others felt that the reaction of these secret guards was a bit too much. It seemed that there was indeed something terrible here.

Zhou Mu had experienced a lot of things outside in the past two years. He had also accidentally fallen into a tomb and seen many terrible things. He was a little curious and went straight forward to see what was inside the iron box.

When he saw it, his expression was as constipated as those guards, but his reaction was not as strong as that of the secret guard.

Zhou Mu felt that he might not be able to eat anymore these past two days. It was so disgusting. He walked a little closer and smelled the indescribable smell, which almost sent him to heaven.

His face turned pale.

Xiao Wanyue was extremely curious, but she didn't dare to go forward.

She was afraid of seeing something unexpected. Although she was a materialist, she was still an atheist even if she traveled through time.

He Jingming asked the secret guard, "Tell me, what's inside?"

Secret Guard: "Your Majesty, there are countless snakes inside, and there is a dead man inside. Those snakes are slithering back and forth in this man's body."

Several people almost vomited when they heard this. Xiao Wanyue immediately felt unwell. How could there be snakes here? And the secret guard said it was extremely disgusting.

He Jingming's expression also changed slightly, looking a little ugly. He subconsciously held Xiao Wanyue's hand. He knew that Xiao Wanyue was most afraid of snakes.

Xiao Wanyue felt warm in her heart when she felt He Jingming's action. It felt so good to be protected. However, she really wanted to run away. She was thinking about how to eliminate these snakes.

She suddenly thought of the snake-killing artifact in her space, and immediately took it out with her mind. She directly handed the medicine bottle to He Jingming and said, "Husband, throw this medicine into the iron box."

He Jingming was a little confused but he also knew that his wife was very capable, so he immediately used his internal energy to throw several medicine bottles into the iron box.

There was a crackling sound in the iron box immediately, and then there was no sound after a while. The secret guard went forward again, expecting to see a disgusting and terrifying scene, but he didn't expect that there was nothing inside, and the body of the person inside did not disappear.

But the appearance was extremely terrifying, even disgusting. Zhou Mu felt like the world was turning upside down after just one look at it. Even after a while, she still felt a little bit unbearable.

If he had known this earlier, he wouldn't be so curious. It's true that curiosity kills the cat.

Everyone dared to look only after hearing that the snake had been dealt with. Xiao Wanyue also leaned forward to look, her hand tightly holding He Jingming's sleeve.

Inside the iron box was a skeleton that had long lost its flesh and blood. The man was tall and looked like an adult man. From his clothes, one could see that they were embroidered with gold thread.

But there is nothing on this person to prove anything, so it is impossible to tell who he is.

A few people searched around again and found that although there were corpses in other metal boxes, there were no snakes, insects, rats or ants on these corpses. This was a bit strange as to why only this person's corpse was liked by snakes.

Is there something special about this person?

Xiao Wanyue picked up a wooden stick and turned it over, and found a box under the man. He Jingming also found it. He used his internal force to lift the box up and put it on the ground, and then used his internal force to shake cracks in the outer shell.

As soon as the box broke, I smelled a strange fragrance. The fragrance was not irritating, but rather inexplicably pleasant, giving me a feeling of relaxation and happiness.

As soon as Xiao Wanyue smelled it, she knew that the things in the box were good things. They must be treasures she had never seen before.

Others also noticed the abnormality of this thing, but they didn't dare to go forward, in case it was something bad.

Xiao Wanyue was a little excited and wanted to go forward to get it, but He Jingming pulled her back and hugged her in his arms and said, "You want to take it without knowing anything? What if it's poisonous?"

After saying that, he slapped Xiao Wanyue's buttocks as a punishment, and Xiao Wanyue's face turned red like shrimp.

She didn't expect this man to spank her buttocks in public. She was so embarrassed that she buried her head in He Jingming's arms and said sullenly, "How could you do this? I don't care about my face."

The little hand hit He Jingming a few times, and then heard everyone's laughter, feeling even more embarrassed.

Xiao Wanyue felt like she had lost all her face today, but she didn't care about the embarrassment. The main thing was that the things on the ground should be medicinal herbs, otherwise how could they emit such a fragrance.

Xiao Lingqing said, "Your Majesty and my younger sister have a very good relationship." He also wanted to ease the atmosphere, mainly because his younger sister was too embarrassed, and he was afraid that no one would break this scene.

Xiao Wanyue said, "Put me down quickly. The things on the ground are precious medicinal herbs. Don't worry, it's okay. I can just put on gloves, right?"

He Jingming finally felt relieved. He knew that Yue'er had many treasures and she would not let herself get hurt.

Xiao Wanyue put on gloves, squatted down and removed the debris around the box, and the contents inside slowly revealed their original appearance.

It turned out to be a glowing snow lotus. It is a thousand-year-old snow lotus and the king of snow lotuses. No wonder it emits such a smell.

Xiao Wanyue was so happy that she knew that if she wanted to get a Lotus King, she would have to wait for thousands of years.

But who can live for a thousand years?

This medicine is the miracle drug that can bring the dead back to life.

Xiao Wanyue said, "This is a very precious lotus, a priceless treasure. It is very difficult to pick, and this medicinal herb grows on very cold snowy mountains. The picking method is also very long-lasting. The medicinal herb is also very effective and has the effect of prolonging life."

After listening to Xiao Wanyue's story, several people felt that this flower was a priceless treasure, but it was a pity that it was of no use to them who didn't understand pharmacology.

Prince Zhao Gengchen of Chen looked at it for a while and said, "I've heard a little about this snow lotus. I heard it was a tribute from a foreign country during the prosperity of the previous dynasty, but was lost during the chaos of the previous dynasty. I didn't expect it to be here. But how did this flower come into this person's possession? Could this person have some unknown identity?"

At this time, the secret guard found another hairpin from the iron box. It was a jade hairpin that was glowing all over and looked extraordinary.

Others were also very curious about who the jade hairpin belonged to. They were all leaders of this era, naturally well-read and knowledgeable about both ancient and modern times, so they also had their own guesses.

He Jingming looked at it for a while and had an idea in his mind, but he was a little uncertain.

He asked Zhao Gengchen who was standing beside him, "What do you think, uncle?"

Zhao Gengchen looked at it for a while and said, "This is the symbol of the crown prince of the previous dynasty."

Xiao Wanyue was also a little panicked in the distance. What was going on?
