Chapter 20 Bronze Chimes, Seven-eared Mummy

"Okay, let's go in. Gentlemen, please..." Wu Suowei said and walked in through the main door.

The three people entered the space behind the flap mechanism one after another.

The fat man turned on the flashlight and began to observe. Soon, he let out a strange cry.

There was a dried corpse next to him.

"We didn't intend to rob a tomb, but we came across a corpse."

"Why don't you try some break dancing if you have the guts? Who are you trying to scare by standing there like an idiot?"

The fat man kicked and cursed.

Unexpectedly, when he kicked the mummy, it really fell to the ground. The fat man was startled and quickly stepped back.

Fortunately, the corpse did not resurrect.

"Here's some diesel, just in time to generate electricity."

"The ancestral hall just now and the space behind this flap both have electric lights. Let's generate some electricity first."

Wu Suowei said as he picked up a bucket of diesel.

With his hearing and vision, he could roughly determine what was here.

But Wu Xie and Fatty were completely in the dark, as the light from the flashlight was always limited.

"Okay, I'll go generate electricity."

The fat man carried the diesel and returned to the ancestral hall. Soon, the place was lit up.

I don't know how long these circuits and bulbs have been there. At least ten years, they are still usable. It's really good quality.

Wu Suowei took a look and found that except for a few burnt-out light bulbs, all the others were lit.

The space here can also be seen clearly.

"This is not a tomb, but a strange place."

"It's strange that the Yang family put the ancestral hall in their home. They also have a mechanism in their home that leads to this secret room."

Wu Xie looked around and said.

The three people now saw that around the secret room, there was a row of coffins placed vertically in the front, and the mummies inside were all standing, so when the fat man kicked it just now, one of the mummies fell to the ground.

These mummies should all be the ancestors of the Yang family.

The murals outside might have been stolen by someone inside.

The most important thing was that there was a huge sarcophagus in the center of the secret room. On top of the sarcophagus, a large bronze bell was hung with chains.

This large bronze bell was turned upside down, with its top facing downwards towards the coffin, which was very strange.

Fatty and Wu Xie opened their mouths slightly, unable to speak for a moment, both deeply shocked by the spectacular scene before them.

"This is really Yang Daguan's treasure cave." The fat man exclaimed.

The three of them circled around the ancient bronze coffin. It was covered with heavy dust, but it couldn't conceal its ancient atmosphere.

"044!" Wu Suowei said, pointing at the code on the chimes.

"044, these chimes are actually related to 044."

Wu Xie held a flashlight and unexpectedly discovered that the bronze chimes on the coffin also had the label 044 on them.

"There is one here too, and they are all here." The fat man also said.

"044! These numbers are on the back of the photos of Third Uncle and Yang Daguang. This 044 refers to the archaeological operation. So do you think this 044 is the code for an ancient tomb?" Wu Xie said to Wu Suowei and Fatty at the same time.

"These things were stolen from the ancient tomb by the Yang family and moved here."

"The Yang family is in the same business as us, tomb robbers."

The fat man looked at these things and spoke.

Wu Xie also nodded. With his vision, he could tell that these were even older things.

But why did the Yang family steal these things and move them to their own home to hide them?

"Look at the quality of these things. They should be from the same place. But they are too big. How can we move them? This is..." The fat man muttered. He had long wanted to take away the chimes above his head.

These chimes are definitely valuable items.

"These things don't belong to you in the first place. They have nothing to do with you." Wu Xie said. He knew what Fatty was thinking without even looking at him.

Just as the two were talking, bursts of noise suddenly rang out in the secret room, coming from the inverted bronze bell.

boom……

All three people were shocked.

Wu Suowei didn't expect the sound to be so loud. If he had known, he would have asked them to cover their ears.

"What is this sound?"

The fat man looked around, already holding an engineer shovel, and became alert.

At first glance, there was the sound of wind and thunder.

But when you listen carefully, it sounds like someone is whispering, saying something unclear.

So weird.

"thunder!"

"Thunder, is it going to rain?" asked the fat man.

"This bell is a thunder collector. Don't forget that it's still raining and thundering outside."

Wu Suowei reminded.

After hearing what Wu Suowei said, Wu Xie also reacted.

He just felt a flash of inspiration and was about to figure it out, but he didn't expect Wu Suo to discover it even faster.

Obviously, this is a place for listening to thunder.

The Yang family used this inverted bell to collect and amplify the sound of thunder to obtain certain information.

What did they hear amid the thunder?
After a thunderclap, the secret room gradually fell into silence.

The three of them looked at the coffin in front of them.

The answers they are looking for may be in this coffin.

"Open the coffin!"

Wu Xie made a decision.

The matter concerns Uncle San, and he doesn't have much time, so he can't hesitate.

He was unwilling to let go of any clue. "Okay, I've been waiting for you to say this."

The fat man laughed happily and asked Wu Suowei to open the coffin together.

"Then let's stop wasting time and open the coffin."

Fatty took out a crowbar from his backpack and threw it to Wu Xie and Wu Suowei.

Putting the crowbar in the crack of the coffin lid, Wu Xie and Fatty were ready to open the coffin.

"There's no need to go to such lengths, Wu Xie, Fatty, please move aside."

Wu Suowei directly put his hand on the coffin lid and lifted it up with force. The coffin lid weighing hundreds or even thousands of pounds was easily overturned by Wu Suowei.

"Okay, Little Brother Wu. You are the one. Immortal cultivators are just different." The fat man said with a smile.

The coffin lid was indeed not very challenging for Wu Suowei.

Wu Suowei's strength astounded the fat man: "With your strength, you can make a fortune anywhere, except for being a water deliveryman."

Wu Suowei smiled. This fat guy always had a joke no matter what time it was.

The coffin lid opened and the dust inside rose into the sky.

The fat man covered his eyes with his hands and dared not look inside.

"What's wrong, Fatty? Did you hit your head? Or did you squint your eyes?" Wu Xie asked Fatty with concern when he saw his expression.

Unexpectedly, the fat man said in a dramatic tone: "I dare not look, I dare not look. This long-lost feeling is right in front of me. Let me wait patiently for a while."

"What the hell are you waiting for?" Wu Xie kicked the fat man.

"Any treasures?"

"Yes, they are all treasures, I'm overwhelmed." Wu Suowei said to the fat man.

"Really? Really? Then here I come, let me, Fatty, take a look." There was a corpse lying in the coffin, shriveled and thin, with some burial objects around it.

"Oh, that's really annoying." The fat man was still funny.

At this time, the three people's eyes were all fixed on the corpse, unable to move away.

If you count carefully, you can see that this corpse has seven ears.

Seven ears!

Wu Xie and Fatty were really shocked. How could a person have seven ears? Isn’t this a monster?

Although Wu Suowei had known about this for a long time and was mentally prepared, he was still a little surprised.

The corpse in the coffin was lying on its side, with the seven ears facing the upside-down bronze bell above its head, which was the thunder collector.

It is obvious that he is lying in the coffin and listening to the thunder.

"This corpse has seven ears. It must be a monster."

The fat man couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.

He thought there might be some valuable treasure in the coffin, but after all the fuss, all he found was the corpse of a monster.

"This is not a monster. Of these seven ears, only one is real."

“The others were cut with a knife and installed on top.”

Wu Suowei shook his head and spoke.

If you look closely, you can see that there are six ears, none of which are original.

Wu Xie's expression also became solemn.

"This should be a very primitive custom."

"But such a barbaric custom is rare in the Central Plains. Who is the owner of this coffin?"

“This group of people must be very enthusiastic pursuers of sound.”

Wu Xie felt that this was another huge mystery that shrouded him.

"Never mind, let's see if I have any treasure first." The fat man muttered.

The fat man had already taken out the small shovel and was lying beside the coffin searching for the treasure.

"But where does this sound come from..." Wu Xie was still doing research.

“Ouch! Ouch!!!”

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

There was a big hole at the bottom of the coffin, and the fat man almost fell into the hole due to inertia.

Wu Suowei was quick-witted and immediately grabbed the fat man's legs, thus preventing him from falling further.

However, now the whole person is hanging at the entrance of the cave, unable to go up or down. At this time, the fat man feels top-heavy.

"Ouch, ouch. What's going on?" The fat man was shocked. He never expected that there would be such a mechanism.

"Fatty, be careful, I'll pull you up." Wu Suowei raised his hands and tried to pull the fat man up.

"Hey, Xiao Wuzi, wait a moment, wait a moment."

"What are you doing? Do you want to eat a few more bites?" Wu Suowei asked.

"Get out of here, let me down a little. There are treasures inside." Fatty Wang fell into the cave, but was shocked to find that there was another world under the coffin.

"What's going on? I've learned a lot today. Little Brother Wu, please pull me up quickly."

The fat man saw that there seemed to be a well under the coffin, but it was not quite a well. The walls of the cave were covered with bronze sheets, like a washboard.

"it is good."

Wu Suowei simply pulled the fat man up with both hands. The 200-pound fat man was as easy as a chicken and it was effortless.

"It's broken, it's broken." said the fat man sadly.

"Fatty, can you please lose weight?" Wu Suowei said.

"Go away, it's not you who's in pain." The fat man covered his crotch, as if some important part of his body was injured.

"Did I break your belt?" Wu Suowei asked with concern when he saw the fat man in pain.

"It's okay if the belt is broken, but some parts cannot be broken, ouch." The fat man continued to cover his crotch, the pain had not yet passed.

"Hey, Fatty, what are you going to do about your happy sex life in the future?" Wu Suowei said jokingly.
