Wu Tianzhen and Wang Yueban, who were standing at the door, couldn't help but widen their eyes. They looked at the scene in front of them in shock. They didn't expect that there would be a hidden world in the seemingly unremarkable ancestral hall.
"This, how can Yang Daguang have so many good things at home? It couldn't have been transferred from another tomb, right?”
As soon as Wang Yueban entered the door, she questioned Yang Daguang's archaeological identity and studied the hanging chimes.
Although it was not as strange as the hanging coffins in the musician's tomb, these chimes were also hung with various ropes and chains to form a large net.
Wu Sizhen casually waved the flashlight on the chime bell. As expected, there was a small label on it.
"Look, this chime bell also has the label 044 on it.”
Wang Yueban, who was thinking about how to transport the chime bell away, also noticed the small label. Yang Daguang's identity became more and more confusing.
"Did we enter Yang Daguang's treasure cave? Did he transport all the things in the ancient tomb to his home?”
"The serial number belongs to the archaeological team. If Yang Daguang shipped it back, why would he waste so much effort?”
Wu Tianzhen walked around the bronze coffin, but he still had no clue. There was no pattern to these labels, but each one was stuck crooked.
Just as they were wondering about Yang Daguang's purpose, a strange sound suddenly sounded in the tomb.
The sound came from the bronze bell facing the coffin. It sounded like the sound of the wind, but under careful listening, there was a faint whisper.
Wang Yueban covered her ears and asked loudly,"
"What's that sound?"
"There's thunder above."
Wu Sizhen's bodily functions were superior to that of ordinary people. Although the sound of thunder outside was not as obvious because of the bell and the secret chamber, he could still hear it.
Wu Sizhen patted his ears. He had made it suffer today.
"Thunder? Was the sound of this bell related to thunder?”
Wu Tianzhen barely managed to steady his footsteps amidst the trembling of the bell. He waited until the bell gradually stopped before he spoke again.
"It's not just the bell. Why did I hear some human voices from the bell just now?”
Wang Yue rubbed the goosebumps on her arm in a half numbed manner. Indeed, when the big clock shook just now, there were indeed some small and sharp human voices.
Wu Sizhen leaned against the bronze coffin and looked into the bronze bell with his flashlight.
"This bell is used to collect thunder. As for the human voice, it's because of these chimes. The sound they make when they strike is originally clear and pleasant to the ear, but in the chaotic sound just now, they sound like whispering human voices.”
Wang Yueban let out a long breath. If he could not explain it clearly, he was afraid that some female ghost had come out of the tomb.
Wu Tianzhen swept the dust off the bronze coffin. There were only complicated carvings on it, but there was no book information.
"Is this place to collect thunder and suppress it under here?”
"Then we'll know soon after we pry open this coffin.”
Although he said he was here to investigate, Wang Yueban came fully armed. He had explosives and crowbars in his bag. As he spoke, he took out the crowbar and tried to operate the coffin lid.
"There's no need to pry. This thing isn't sealed, so it should be able to be pushed open directly.”
Wu Sizhen reached out and touched the side of the coffin lid. The gap in the middle was still letting in air.
"Little Tian, cover your mouth. There's so much dust on it that you'll choke later.”
Immediately, Wu Sizhen and Wang Yueban lifted the lid of the bronze coffin to the ground. The bronze coffin looked majestic on the outside, but it was somewhat lacking on the inside.
There were no funerary objects in the coffin, only a skeleton that was about to turn into white bones curled up inside.
However, their eyes were focused on the ears of the corpse. This corpse actually had seven ears.
Wu Tianzhen thought that he was seeing things, so he pointed down seriously.
"This thing is strange. Why does it have seven ears?”
Wang Yue leaned against the bronze coffin and exclaimed.
"This corpse is about to turn into white bones. Take a closer look. The others should have been cut.”
Wu Sizhen focused the flashlight on the head of the person lying on the side. Sure enough, only one of the ears was native, while the others looked more like they were placed on the head.
Not only did this skeleton have seven ears, but there were also some white crystals around it. Although they looked like pearls, no one wanted to pick them up and study them.
"This should be some kind of ancient custom. These people's pursuit of thunder has reached a fanatical level. Even if they die, they will collect thunder bells on their coffins so that they can listen to them.”
Wu Tianzhen could almost relate the story on the mural to the entire tomb.
"Then this custom must have been lost. Sigh, don't worry about that. Let's see if there are any valuable treasures here first. This white pearl makes people feel strange.”
Wang Yueban said as she took out her shovel from her bag and began to pull the coffin inside.
Wu Sizhen couldn't help but shake his head as he watched from the side. This kind of behavior was too much like a grave robber. If an archaeological team really came to investigate, they would hate Wang Yueban to death.
"But how did this bell only collect thunder?”Wu Tianzhen was still curiously scanning the interior of the bronze bell above his head with his flashlight. If it was just for sound amplification, it should be able to collect all the sounds.
"Sigh! Sigh! Fourth Uncle! Give me a hand!"
Wang Yueban, who was exploring the coffin with half of her body, suddenly fell inside. The bottom of the coffin might have been weakened by the corrosion of time. With Wang Yueban's stirring, a big hole was directly opened.
Wang Yueban was half inside, so he couldn't hold on for a while and fell down. Fortunately, he was wide and fat, so he could hold on for a while. He didn't fall in directly, but he obviously couldn't hold on for long.
Wu Sizhen, who was standing next to him, was also shocked by this change. He immediately reacted and reached out to grab Wang Yueban's legs.
"I caught you. Is there something down here?”
Upon hearing that Wu Sizhen had already caught him, Wang Yueban was relieved. Previously, Wu Sizhen had easily dealt with him and Wu Tianzhen, so it would not be a problem for him to catch him alone.
Wang Yueban, who was stuck in the hole, took the flashlight and looked down. At the bottom was a murky water, and there were pieces of bronze hanging on the wall like fish scales.
"Fourth Uncle, pull me up. It's strange down here. There's a pile of bronze pieces.”
Wang Yueban, who had been dragged up by Wu Sizhen, looked down and saw that the hole was still falling.
"I didn't expect there to be a mechanism in this coffin. I was careless.”
"There's a bell above, a well below, and a coffin in the middle. This place is really beyond common sense.”
Wu Sizhen raised his eyebrows and looked down.
