"Open the coffin and loot the gold?"
Zhang Chen was stunned. He didn't even know where the coffin of the owner of the tomb had gone. How could he open the coffin and touch the gold?
However, since the system had this mission, it meant that the coffin must be in the tomb!
He took out a candle from his bag and walked towards the southeast corner of the tomb!
The rule of the gold-looting lieutenant was that before looting gold, one had to light a candle in the southeast corner. Once the candle was extinguished, one had to immediately stop looting gold!
Otherwise, something bad would happen!
The Heavenly Eye livestream broadcasted the scene in the tomb to millions of viewers. When they saw Zhang Chen lighting the candle and placing it in the southeast corner of the tomb, they were instantly excited!
"The candle is placed in the southeast corner. This is the rhythm of touching gold!”
"Wow, so nervous! What kind of good deed did I do in my previous life to be able to experience gold looting with Zhang Chen!”
"Did I see wrongly just now? The coffin in the Hall of the Dead seems to have disappeared?”
In the principal's office of Yanjing University, Principal Feng stared at the screen where Zhang Chen lit the candle and placed it in the southeast corner with a puzzled expression.
"Old Fang, what is he doing? Didn't he have a flashlight? Why did he light a candle?”
Principal Feng asked three questions in a row.
Professor Fang's expression immediately became serious. He stared at Zhang Chen on the screen, afraid to miss any detail!
"This is the rule of the gold-looting commandant! The rooster crows and the lamp goes out, but you don't touch gold!"
Professor Fang said excitedly. The inheritance of the Gold-looting Commandant had disappeared for decades. It was rumored that the Gold-looting Commandant could find the entrance to the tomb in thousands of mountains through the Eight Trigrams of the Book of Changes!
Furthermore, he could crack the traps in the tomb!
In the ancient times, the gold-looting lieutenant was not the strongest in martial arts, but his skills were at the peak!
Every descendant of the Gold-looting Commandant was a first-class master of divinations!
He did not expect to see the scene of a gold-looting captain lighting a lamp and looting gold in the twilight of the year!
"Elder Fang, don't keep me in suspense. What do you mean?”
Principal Feng was anxious. He felt that Zhang Chen was very mysterious. In the dark tomb, his expression was calm, his thoughts were clear, and he knew the layout of the tomb like the back of his hand!
It was as if he had participated in the construction of tombs in ancient times!
"I'm not a gold-looting officer. How can I explain it to you so clearly…Continue and you'll know!"
Professor Fang looked helpless.
Principal Feng looked at Professor Fang in surprise. He didn't expect there to be something that Professor Fang didn't understand!
................
The people who had been studying the dome also noticed Zhang Chen walking towards the southeast corner of the tomb with a candle in his hand. They all looked suspicious.
Especially Brother Bo. When he was filming a movie about tomb raiding, he had also seen the script mention that before the gold-looting captain looted the gold, he had to light a candle in the southeast corner of the tomb!
If the candle went out, he had to stop touching the gold!
He had always thought that the scriptwriter had made it up. He did not expect it to be true!
Everyone looked at each other in surprise and walked in Zhang Chen's direction.
"Zhang Chen, is there any reason for this candle to be placed here?”
Huang Bo asked, puzzled.
"Of course!"
Zhang Chen nodded slightly, but he had no intention of explaining to everyone. Instead, he searched the tomb with a flashlight. He was going to find the missing coffin!
"I've heard that when the lamp is extinguished, you can't touch gold. Does that mean that when the candle is extinguished, it means that the oxygen in the air is disappearing?”
Lin Yu speculated.
Huang Lei, Fatty Di, and the others felt that Lin Yu's words made sense and nodded slightly.
Zhang Chen's attention was on the coffin of the tomb owner, but he could not find anything suspicious. He shook his head and said to everyone,"Name the direction in the Hundred Eight Trigrams of the Book of Changes!”
"Jiqian, northwest, Kan, north! Gen, northeast! Zhen, the east! Xun, southeast! Du Li, south! Kun, southwest! Dui, west!"
"The southeast corner is the Li position. The Li position represents the Life Gate in Qimen Dunjia. Lighting a candle at the Life Gate means that you can leave alive. If the inner candle is extinguished, it means that the Life Gate has been closed.”
Zhang Chen's words made everyone's scalps go numb!
"The tomb owner can blow out the candles? A big dumpling!"
Sun Honglei opened his eyes wide and said in a deep voice.
Zhang Chen turned around and glanced at Sun Honglei.""You're right. Once the candle is extinguished, it means that the corpse has changed!”
Everyone was shocked. They did not feel that afraid just now, but Zhang Chen's words directly made the atmosphere strange and terrifying.
"Xiao Bo, I have a task for you. You are responsible for watching that candle. Don't let it go out!”
Sun Honglei suddenly said.
"Why me? Why aren't you going?"
Huang Bo took a step back vigilantly. The flickering candlelight looked so scary at this moment!
"Didn't you film a movie about grave robbing? Here, other than Zhang Chen, you're the only one who has anything to do with gold. You're the most suitable to go!”
Huang Lei said.
"Alright! You're going to scam me!
Huang Bo's face was full of reluctance, but seeing everyone's expressions, he could only walk to the candle and sit beside it. He used his hand to cover it, as if he was afraid that the candle would go out.
"Zhang Chen, what do we do next?”
Huang Lei turned to Zhang Chen and asked.
Zhang Chen shone his flashlight on the empty altar in the center of the Hall of the Dead."Find the coffin of the tomb owner!"
