Popularize tomb robbing: The state asks whether gold can be divided to determine the burial site

Hu Jizhou and Meng Yu were already somewhat uneasy... and after hearing Shao Wei's crazy words, they became even more suspicious.

I have a feeling that there are ghosts everywhere here!

His gaze was fixed intently on the stairwell.

They were afraid that some dirty thing might peek out from there.

Qin An, Jiang Liuli, and Gu Wuyan didn't take it to heart!

Judging from the current situation... whether there are ghosts or not, they can't leave here, so let's hurry up and open the coffin quickly.

Think of this.

Qin An suddenly exerted force with both hands!

He yanked open the lid of the stone coffin and then kept looking down into it... He saw a strange man lying inside.

This strange man was completely naked.

However, his body was covered in congealed black blood, making it impossible to see his face or even his features. The dark blood had dried and covered his entire body.

You can only see it by appointment, where seven silver needles are inserted into the seven orifices.

But the scene was far more horrific than what was depicted on the parchment scroll...

Because nine-tenths of the seven silver needles were inserted into the orifices, with only a tiny bit of the needle tip protruding, it's hard to imagine what kind of torture this woman's corpse had suffered before her death.

"This is the Thousand-Faced Fox Demon? How tragic!"

Jiang Liuli leaned closer, staring in astonishment at the scene inside the stone coffin.

Hear this.

Gu Wuyan, Hu Jizhou, and Meng Yu were also intrigued. Instead of looking towards the stairwell, they gathered around the stone coffin to examine it.

"vomit--"

Meng Yu found the smell unbearable.

It turns out that the stench they smelled downstairs was coming from the female corpse.

They had already found it hard to stand it before.

The sarcophagus has now been opened.

They found it even more unbearable.

Meng Yu covered her mouth and nose, wanting to run downstairs, but when she thought of the filthy thing on the stairs heading this way, she stopped, unsure whether to go forward or backward.

But after a moment.

Qin An, standing beside the stone coffin, breathed a sigh of relief.

The others were confused.

They all turned to look at him. After a moment, Qin An said, "This Thousand-Faced Fox Demon cannot rise from the dead. This corpse does not possess any evil energy, and there are no objects with evil energy around it. Without evil energy attached to it, the corpse cannot rise from the dead."

Jiang Liuli and Gu Wuyan seemed to understand but not quite.

But after a moment.

Gu Wuyan asked with some doubt, "Then why did the corpses we encountered before, which didn't have any malevolent energy and there were no objects with malevolent energy around them, rise from the dead?"

Hear this.

Qin An shook his head.

“The corpses that rose to life before either had their own malevolent energy, or there were old objects with malevolent energy around them, or the feng shui of the surrounding area had the conditions for the corpse to rise to life. But this female corpse does not meet any of these conditions! Unless a cat appears now and touches this female corpse, it is absolutely impossible for the corpse to rise to life.”

Hear this.

The others nodded in agreement.

These words practically sealed the fate of the female corpse.

Since Chi You's tomb has a history of more than 5,000 years, how could a cat possibly appear in such an ancient tomb?

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for her to rise from the dead!

The five people stood around the stone coffin for half a minute. During this time, Qin An kept his killing intent perception focused on the stairwell, but did not sense any danger.

He became even more convinced that Shao Wei was just talking nonsense.

It's not that anything dirty has actually come up.

Then Qin An reached into the stone coffin and gently placed his hand on the woman's forehead.

All of a sudden.

Technique – Tracing the Source of Light – Activated!

Qin An's consciousness followed the light and traced its source, escaping into the female corpse's memories before her death.

.......................................

"You mean our Lord of War will need at least 15 years to awaken?"

Inside a room that resembles an ancestral hall.

An elderly man dressed in coarse cloth exclaimed in shock.

"Theoretically speaking... that's how it is."

The person who answered him was a middle-aged man dressed in a long black robe. The man's face was hidden in the shadows, making it impossible to see his features and appearance.

Qin An's figure was as if he were invisible beside them.

I listened to their conversation silently.

The military commander Qin An knew this.

That's Chi You's nickname!

The 15th cycle is 5400 years, and the ancients believed that one cycle equals 360 years.

Qin An had assumed the two would be worried about the long time it would take for Chi You to resurrect, but the change in topic took him by surprise.

The elderly man dressed in coarse cloth suddenly changed the subject:

"It's 5400 years! Our Lord of War must be feeling lonely down there, right? You know... our Lord of War is quite vigorous in that area."

The middle-aged man in the black robe: "......."

half an hour.

His tone softened slightly as he asked, "Then what do you suggest we do?"

"How about... we send the Lord of War's wife down to keep him company? That way, the Lord of War won't be lonely."

Hear this.

The middle-aged man in the black robe pondered for a moment.

Then he nodded in agreement.

"Anyway, Lord Bing will be able to be resurrected in 5400 years. At that time, we will give Lord Bing the six inner cores as originally planned. Reviving Lord Thousand-Faced Fox will be just a matter of Lord Bing saying a word."

Hear this.

Qin An finally understood why the Thousand-Faced Fox Demon had been treated so badly by them.

After all that... these guys really believe that Chi You can be resurrected after death!

Moreover, Qin An felt that things were far more complicated than that.

Because the middle-aged man in black robes was unaware of this matter beforehand when the elderly man in coarse cloth brought it up, Qin An had reason to be suspicious.

This is what that old geezer wants to do by using a pretext to kill the Thousand-Faced Fox Demon, so that he can completely rule over the remnants of Chi You's forces. After all, the Lord of War's wife is still alive, and who knows what will happen to those who swore to be loyal to the Lord of War?

They won't obey his orders.

Instead, they will obey the orders of the Thousand-Faced Fox.

In name, they were buried with the deceased.

It's really just centralized power!

Qin An thought to himself.

Just as he was about to get closer to see the face of the middle-aged man in black robes, he noticed that the scene around him flashed, and when it reappeared, the Thousand-Faced Fox had already been captured by them.

It turned out that the old man in coarse cloth and the middle-aged man in black robes had decided that since the Thousand-Faced Fox was going to be buried with Chi You anyway, they might as well make the most of it.

The ghost of the Thousand-Faced Fox was used to nourish Chi You's corpse!

What happened next was exactly as recorded on the parchment.

What Qin An didn't expect was that those cloth figures weren't just randomly made into mummies and then tied up with cloth; the mummies inside were actually the maids of the Thousand-Faced Fox!

Not only that.

This thousand-faced fox demon really did keep a white fox as a pet in her previous life.
