Tomb raiding: The awesome life that started from Ganggangyingzi

Chapter 194 Bronze Coffin, Boyi Kao?

Upon hearing this, Fatty Wang and Big Gold Tooth immediately got up from the ground and scurried into the Fishbone Temple.

"Holy crap, this is the tomb robber's tunnel! It's a really good tunnel, so round and smooth."

It was Big Gold Tooth's first time venturing out into the fields, and everything seemed new and exciting to him. His excited demeanor and lewd remarks left the people around him speechless.

"I hope you don't wet your pants when you go in later."

Ji Haobo wasn't too comfortable with this guy, so he went into the tunnel first, followed by Da Jinya, with Lao Hu bringing up the rear.

The tunnel wasn't very big, and it was a bit strenuous to climb up, but fortunately, as you went deeper, it turned a corner and started to get bigger, and before you knew it, you could stand up.

But Ji Haobo raised an eyebrow, stopped in his tracks, and looked at the flashlights that had been flickering and then gone out in Lao Hu's hands.

"Damn it, Lao Ji, hurry up and release your drone to light the way! This flashlight is such terrible quality, it broke down as soon as we came in."

The flashlight suddenly went out, almost making Big Gold Tooth wet his pants, and he screamed in fright.

No wonder he was so panicked. The tomb was pitch black, and apart from the breathing of the few of them, the surroundings were eerily quiet, creating a very frightening and oppressive atmosphere.

"Old Jin, what are you yelling about? Don't you think about why three of your flashlights broke at once? Be careful you don't attract ghosts to come and play games with you."

Fatty Wang always brings up the most sensitive topics; even though he knew there might be something strange about it.

But having experienced a lot, he wasn't worried and even deliberately made alarmist claims to scare Big Gold Tooth.

"Ah...A ghost? Old...Old Ji, hurry up and turn on the lights!"

Instead of launching the drone, Ji Haobo lit several torches and glared at the bewildered Big Gold Tooth, yelling:

"You didn't see a thing, and you're already scaring yourself like this. If a ghost really did appear, you'd probably just kick the bucket!"

"Uh... um... does this really have ghosts?"

Big Gold Tooth awkwardly accepted a torch. With the light, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then cautiously looked around, afraid that something might jump out.

"What do you mean there isn't? Look around, is there anything strange?"

Old Hu and Fatty Wang quickly lit torches and carefully scanned the area. They discovered that the earthen tomb tunnel was gone, and in its place appeared a brick and stone tomb passage.

"What...what's going on? Have we been teleported?"

Big Gold Tooth jumped nervously next to Ji Haobo, making even Lao Hu and Fatty Wang nervous. The sudden change of location was indeed a bit scary.

"This is a ghost tomb. Legend has it that the ancient tomb is possessed by spirits, similar to a ghost ship. Once someone enters, they will be trapped and die inside."

Ji Haobo looked at the three people whose expressions had changed, waved his hand, and pondered:

"However, I think that's complete nonsense. Ancient tombs are just buildings; how could they possibly give birth to souls?"

I guess King Wen of Zhou used some kind of Bagua or Qimen Dunjia technique to create the array space.

The group felt there was some truth to it, and after a sigh of relief, Fatty Wang turned to Old Hu and said:

"Master Bo said they used some kind of Bagua and Qimen Dunjia here. Old Hu, you'd better hurry up and show Old Zhou that his descendants are no joke."

Old Hu's face darkened at his arrogant tone, and he glared at him irritably.

"You make it sound so easy. King Wen of Zhou is a grandmaster of grandmasters. My skills are no match for him. Only Master Bo can handle this."

"Damn it, how can you back down? So what if he's the grandmaster's grandmaster? Haven't you ever heard of the student surpassing the master?"

"Alright! Alright! Stop talking nonsense. Let's go check things out up ahead. I don't understand any of this divination or divination, but I'm quite skilled at forced demolition."

Ji Haobo was curious about this place and decided to wander around for a while before making a decision.

As they walked forward, the tomb passages became increasingly interconnected. Apart from a faint aura of yin energy, there were no landmarks to refer to, and the group quickly became completely lost.

Left with no other choice, Ji Haobo took out the Demon Blade Flowing Fire Thousand Blades and violently cut open the tomb passage.

This immediately caused a change in the situation; the surrounding yin energy was silently flowing towards a certain place.

Ji Haobo raised an eyebrow and led the group in a furious flurry of slashes, following their senses as they caught up.

They soon arrived at a huge tomb chamber, filled with numerous statues. In the center lay a bronze coffin, from which all the yin energy had vanished.

In addition, there was a stone tablet next to the bronze coffin. The group went over to take a look, and they all frowned.

"Forbidden Land, all who come must halt and depart immediately. Written by Li Chunfeng!"

After finishing reading, Big Gold Tooth turned to Ji Haobo with a pale face.

"Old Ji, this script is regular script; it should truly be left by Li Chunfeng."

"Hmm! It seems there really is a great secret inside the tomb. This so-called ghost tomb is located on the outside, which should be the first line of defense."

Ji Haobo turned to look at the bronze coffin next to him. After walking around it, he found that apart from some runes and hexagram carvings, only the rabbit pattern was particularly eye-catching.

Fatty Wang, who was standing nearby, clicked his tongue in amazement upon seeing this:

"Master Bo, what's with carving rabbits on this coffin? Shouldn't it have dragons, phoenixes, or unicorns? At the very least, it should have some ferocious beasts like tigers!"

Old Hu and Big Gold Tooth were also completely baffled. The hexagram should be related to King Wen of Zhou, which was not surprising, but the rabbit pattern was something neither of them could understand.

"I do know a little about it."

Ji Haobo pondered for a moment, then raised an eyebrow at the rabbit on the coffin and said to the others:

"There is someone you should all have heard of, that is Boyi Kao, the unlucky guy who was killed by King Zhou and made into meat soup, which was then fed to King Wen of Zhou, Ji Chang."

Although it's unknown whether this story is true or not, the rumor is that Ji Chang vomited upon returning home, and what he vomited turned into a rabbit, hence the name "rabbit."

Upon hearing this, Lao Hu and his two companions felt nauseous and secretly vowed never to eat rabbit again.

"So this is the Boyi Kao? Wasn't he... you know?"

"How would I know? Who knows if something from thousands of years ago is even true?"

Ji Haobo shrugged and said:

"There are also rumors that he is not as talented as Ji Fa and Ji Dan, so he was deposed as crown prince, but it's not appropriate to do it openly, so maybe he's just being kept under wraps here!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Big Gold Tooth jumped up and exclaimed in surprise.

"Oh dear! We're talking about it like this outside, and it seems like they're angry inside."

Indeed! As they were talking, a hazy, grayish gas suddenly drifted out of the bronze coffin without a sound.

"Damn it, it's the aura of a corpse! Get out of the way!"

Upon seeing this, Ji Haobo's expression changed slightly, and he quickly pulled Big Gold Tooth aside.

Old Hu and Fatty Wang also nervously retreated quickly, peeking out from behind him and whispering:

"Brother Bo, it's just corpse energy, what's the big deal? Just open the coffin and deal with it!"

"Damn it, take a closer look at that bronze coffin before you speak!"

Ji Haobo rolled his eyes and said with a serious expression:

"The guy inside is tough; you all better make way later."
