Chen Feng's eyes lit up when he saw the material of the coffin.
No wonder nothing was found outside the tomb. It turned out that the important things were all inside the coffin. What he didn't notice before was that the coffin was made of Phoebe nanmu.
"Golden Nanmu? Is it valuable?"
Hearing Chen Feng's muttering, Fatty could not help but ask. At this moment, Wu Bayi said without Chen Feng needing to speak,"As far as I know, the Golden Phoebe has always been a precious wood since ancient times. Since the Tang Dynasty, it had been known as the best material for coffins. If this kind of wood was preserved well, it could almost not rot for a thousand years. Even after hundreds of years of wind and rain, it was still smooth and smooth with a cloth.”
"That's right." At this moment, Chen Feng added,"According to historical records, the tombs of the Ming Dynasty were built with this kind of wood. When Emperor Qianlong wanted to build a palace, he couldn't even find that much wood in the entire country. For this reason, he could only rob the mausoleum of the previous dynasty.”
"In order to get the wood, even the emperor had to go to grave robbing. However, I didn't expect that the coffins of the Khitans were also made of golden nan.”
Hiss!
Hearing this, Fatty's eyes were worth it.
Looking at the coffin in front of him, he could not help but gulp. Chen Feng could not help but smile bitterly and shake his head when he saw his expression.
He knew what kind of trash Fatty was…
Hence, Chen Feng directly pointed out his thoughts and said,"Alright, don't have any ideas about this coffin. Even if you carried the coffin out, where would you sell it?”
"Then... Then I'll just cut off two pieces and sell them!”Hearing that, Fatty was clearly unwilling.
However, at this moment, Wu Bayi stood on Chen Feng's side and said,"Alright, Fatty. Carrying corpses and stealing coffins was something that only the lowest grade grave robbers could do. Doing so was extremely disrespectful to the tomb owner.”
Hearing this, Fatty finally became more obedient.
Next, Chen Feng carefully looked around the coffin before continuing,"Forget it. The coffin is not important. "However, from this coffin, I can roughly tell that we've found the right place. This coffin was made of golden thread Phoebe wood, so the funerary objects inside would definitely not be too bad.”
"The truly important things should be carried by the tomb owner…"
Hearing this, Fatty immediately became excited and said,"So, we have to open the coffin?”
One had to know that he had been looking forward to opening the coffin. Only by opening the coffin could one find the truly valuable funerary objects.
When he heard Chen Feng say that he wanted to open the coffin, he quickly looked around and said,"Old Chen, it's not easy to find the southeast corner here with the compass. Do you have any ideas?”
However, Chen Feng waved his hand when he heard his words.
"Why? Didn't you want to open the coffin?”
For a moment, Wu Bayi was a little puzzled. Could it be that the Hairmound lineage had a special method to open the coffin without lighting a candle?
However, he did not expect Chen Feng to suddenly observe the four edges of the coffin. At the same time, he explained,"The Great General of the Imperial Family is buried in this coffin. None of us can be sure if the corpse inside has signs of turning into a corpse.”
"Moreover, even if candles are lit, opening the coffin is disrespectful to the tomb owner. Therefore, the Hairmound lineage had a unique method that allowed them to take out the funerary objects without opening the coffin.”
Just as he said this, Chen Feng suddenly stopped. When the flashlight shone over, there was a hole about four centimeters wide in the lower left corner of the coffin.
These holes were ventilation holes that were specially left behind when the coffin was built.
This was because the medical methods in ancient times were not very advanced. It was common for people to be buried before they died. And those who didn't die would often wake up to find themselves buried alive.
However, because he could not open the coffin, he could only suffocate to death inside.
This method was to prevent people from being buried alive in a state of suspended animation. It was precisely because of this vent that it was convenient for the Hairmound lineage to loot for gold.
"This... Two-finger probing?"
It was also at this moment that Wu Bayi saw the hole Chen Feng had found and could not help but exclaim.
That's right!
Chen Feng wanted to use two fingers to explore the cave. This was the reward he had received after returning from Miaoling. This skill was the unique skill of the Hair Hill lineage, and now was the most suitable opportunity.
At the same time, Fatty was also a little puzzled.
Therefore, he could not help but ask,"Two fingers probing the hole…" Old Wu, do you understand what this means?”
Wu Bayi gulped and explained,""I once read about it in my grandfather's 16-character Fengshui Heavenly Book. It's said that every sect's grave robbers have their own unique skills. The Hairmound Lineage was this two-finger probing.”
"According to the records, if you practice it well, the Hairmound Sky Official can even use two fingers to quickly take out the funerary objects in the coffin without opening it. Moreover, it can also detect if the tomb owner has the possibility of turning into a corpse…"
Gulp!
Hearing this, Fatty gulped.
However, he was not the only one who was surprised. Even Wu Bayi did not expect Chen Feng to know how to use two fingers to explore the cave.
One had to know that he had read from that book that even some old craftsmen could not learn this skill. The more skilled he was at this method, the more funerary objects he could take out at once.
However, he did not know how confident Chen Feng was…
Just as Wu Bayi and the other two were hesitating, Chen Feng had already finished observing the entrance of the cave.
The vent left on the coffin was just enough for him to put his hand in…
However, before that, Chen Feng put on the other glove. After all, there might be some poisonous mechanism in the coffin. It was inevitable that they would encounter it.
After putting on his gloves, Chen Feng took a deep breath and slowly reached his hand into the one-inch-wide hole…
