Even though the surrounding people were all pale with fear, Lord Zeng still stuck his hand into the iron mouth. His face was very cold. After slightly probing left and right, he seemed to have found the mechanism. Lord Zeng pressed half of his body against the whistle coffin and then suddenly exerted force.
The sound of the mechanism vibrating could be heard. In the next moment, two crisp clangs could be heard. A horizontal bar popped out from the patterns on both sides of the whistle coffin. This was the hidden bar that the whistle coffin was pressed against. When this thing popped out, it basically announced that the whistle coffin had been broken.
Lord Zeng slowly pulled his hand back and said to the people around him," Open the coffin!”
"Yes, sir!" The soldiers on both sides took the opportunity to lift the four corners of the whistle coffin. With a loud shout, the lid of the whistle coffin was lifted.
Qi Tie couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief." God bless us, God bless us. Fortunately, nothing went wrong..."
White Jade City ignored Qi Tie's mouth and walked straight up to Lord Zeng." Lord Zeng is indeed bold. Your ability to open coffins has really broadened my horizons."”
Lord Zeng said with a smile," These are all ordinary things. The Nine Gates should be aware of this as they are the ones who earn their living. Since the coffin has been opened, why don't you come with me to see what kind of person is in the coffin, Brother Bai?"”
White Jade City put her hands together and said," I'm honored. Please, Lord Zeng-"
As they spoke, the two of them walked to the side of the whistle coffin and looked inside. When they looked inside, they were greeted by the stench of rotting corpses. A broken arm was resting on the corpse at this moment. It looked like it had fallen casually. However, White Jade City noticed that there were some faint black teeth marks on the bloody cut of the broken arm.
Lord Zeng lifted the broken arm from the coffin and said," There's nothing special about this coffin. It was the soldier who was scared and nervous. His arm was stuck in the coffin, so he screamed. Take this arm out and reattach it to the soldier."”
Hearing Lord Zeng's words, White Jade City sneered in its heart. If there was no mystery, why didn't you do it yourself in the first wave? However, White Jade City wouldn't say such nonsense. Lord Zeng was the host, and he had to be responsible for his subordinates. White Jade City didn't expect Lord Zeng to explain what was inside, but White Jade City had to know what was inside.
As he was thinking, White Jade City stretched out his hand. With his right hand, which was wearing a tattered deerskin glove, he slowly turned the corpse's face around. He took a look and saw the rotting flesh. White Jade City subconsciously threw the face back. It was really an appetizing sight. Then, he looked down. When White Jade City's hand brushed past the corpse's neck, White Jade City's eyelids twitched. Was this done by a human?
What did White Jade City see?
White Jade City could clearly see that the neck of the corpse was completely broken! It was locked by a huge force from the back of his neck and then snapped! On the rotten skin, one could even see the powerful imprint of a human finger!
Apart from this, White Jade City also noticed that the chest area of the corpse skin had sunk in deeply. That was right, it had sunk in. It was a killing move that had directly hit the Zombie's chest.
Looking at this, White Jade City could even imagine the scene of the battle that had just happened. The zombie had just eaten a piece of Shaoyang meat on its arm. It was in a very difficult time. Lord Zeng had punched the zombie's heart with one hand. Zombies were different from ghosts. A zombie's heart was absolutely vital! Especially the chest area. The corpse that was directly smashed wanted to resist and bite Lord Zeng, but Lord Zeng's hand was faster and directly crushed the neck. This time, his two hands ended the battle cleanly. Tsk tsk, White Jade City thought highly of Lord Zeng. The Old Nine Gates were indeed the Old Nine Gates. This was definitely not just a joke. With just this strength, White Jade City definitely could not achieve such lethality. He had shattered his heart and snapped his neck. This power could no longer be described as pure strength. This was simply a divine power!
Lord Zeng seemed to have noticed the abnormality of White Jade City. He smiled and said," What's the matter?"”
White Jade City shook her head." Nothing. I was just lamenting that this coffin was guarded so closely, but there wasn't even a single gold brick inside. It was really disappointing…"
Lord Zeng said,"Not necessarily-"
As he spoke, Lord Zeng swept his hand through the decayed clothes in the corner and picked up a ring. It was a four-star ring with a bronze tone.”
As soon as the item appeared, Qi Tie, who was anxious but didn't dare to make a move, hurriedly said," Sigh, let me take a look.”
Lord Zeng handed the ring to Qi Tiekui. Qi Tiekui caught it and carefully examined it in front of his glasses." This thing looks familiar. It should be from the Northern and Southern Dynasties..."
When he said this, White Jade City saw Qi Tie's mouth and eyes glisten. He then said," Among the nine old sects of Changsha, the only one who is most proficient in the artifacts of the Southern and Northern Dynasties is the Second Master's family.”
Lord Zeng seemed a little surprised." You mean February Red?”
Qi Tie said," That's right!"
Lord Zeng nodded and said," This is a serious matter. It seems that we have to go and find Second Master."”
"Yes!" Qi Tie said," There's no time to lose. It's only noon now. Let's set off now. He should be singing in the pear garden now. By the way, Xiao Bai, do you want to come with us?"”
White Jade City held her stomach and laughed." Forget it, I'm a little hungry. I want to go back to Lord Fifth's place to eat, so I won't join in the fun. I don't know how to listen to opera, so you guys can go."”
Qi Tiexui remembered that he hadn't brought White Jade City to eat tofu pudding for a long time, so he hurriedly apologized," Sigh, look at me. I forgot to treat you to breakfast. It's been so long, and you've been cooking for so long on an empty stomach. Sigh, this is really…"
Lord Zeng tried to smooth things over." Speed is the most important thing in war. I'll settle the matter of treating you to a meal later. I'll hold a banquet for the Nine Gates. I'll have to trouble you today, Sixth Young Master. It's good that you return to Lord Wu's place first. I'll inform you if there's anything."”
"Thank you. I'll take my leave first.”White Jade City cupped his fists at Lord Zeng and Qi Tiezui, then turned around and left. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from their sight.
On the platform, Lord Zeng watched White Jade City disappear and said slowly," Eighth Brother, did Sixth Brother bring this young master back? Then Sixth Brother must have returned to Changsha by now.”
Qi Tie shook his head." No, Sixth Brother didn't come back. It was Dog Five who brought him back. I asked Dog Five about his background, but he kept his mouth shut and didn't say a word. Lord Zeng, did Little White offend you?" Don't forget, he's a young man, he's young and full of vigor. He's so capable, he'll definitely be a little arrogant. When he comes back, Sixth Brother will guide him…"
Lord Zeng pressed his hands on the coffin, his eyes deep." He didn't offend me. I'm just wondering why such a clever person who knows when to retreat and when to tell right from wrong became the disciple of that one-track-minded Sixth Brother. It's such a pity…"
" Haha-" Qi Tie couldn't help but say," I also feel that it's a pity. This kid is steady and never panicked. Even when he just opened the coffin, his face didn't change and his heart didn't panic. His courage alone is greater than many of your bodyguards!" Moreover, this person was meticulous and meticulous. If he didn't say it, he wouldn't be able to do it. In time, this child would definitely not be a fish in the pond!”
Lord Zeng smiled and walked outside. As he walked, he said,"Let's not talk anymore. Let's go to the pear garden!"”
Qi Tiezui laughed and chased after her." Alright, let's go, let's go. Let's go to Er Yuehong's place for a meal. I heard that the girl's cooking skills are pretty good…"
