After seeing Qi Tiezui agree.
Zhang Qifeng did not say anything else and directly jumped into the cave.
Everyone entered the cave.
Inside the cave, there were spider webs and footprints everywhere. There were also signs of soil falling off the surrounding walls. Seeing this, Deputy Zhang, who was walking in front, said,"Lord Zeng, I'm afraid we've found the culprit this time. The coffin should have been transported out from here.”
"Good! He had finally found it. Let's continue forward."
Lord Zeng looked pleased.
These two days were not in vain. They had finally found the source of the coffin.
Everyone continued to walk into the tunnel.
Not long after.
They arrived in front of another tomb. However, when they saw the scene inside the tomb, they were dumbfounded. They saw that there were dozens of big pits everywhere on the ground of the tomb. It was not difficult to tell from the shape of the pits.
Inside these holes, there were originally only coffins.
If he didn't guess wrong.
These should be the coffins on the train.
"Lord Zeng, these pits are about the same size as the coffins on the train.”The adjutant made an inventory before speaking.
"A coffin is missing?"
Lord Zeng was confused.
Zhang Qifeng, who was at the side, said,"This is very normal. These coffins are just funerary coffins. The coffin of the tomb owner would naturally not be placed here.”
"That makes sense."
Lord Zeng nodded.
Just as he was about to say something, Qi Tiezui, who had followed him in, let out a surprised cry.
"What's wrong? Master Eight?" Deputy Zhang turned his head and asked.
"Look at these things on the ground. They seem to be the tools of our Nine Gates. "Moreover, there's the mark of our Nine Gates on it. Looking at the number of tools scattered on the ground, there must have been quite a number of people who came at that time. Could it be that the previous generation of our Nine Gates had come here before?”Qi Tiezui casually picked up a Luoyang shovel from the ground and said in surprise.
After all, there were so many grave robbing tools.
It was enough to explain.
There were definitely many people who came at that time.、
Perhaps the entire Nine Gates was involved. However, they actually did not know about such a major event.
After hearing Qi Tiezui's words.
Lord Zeng also used his flashlight to check the ground. As expected, there were indeed many scattered tools. He picked them up and weighed them. He felt that they were a little heavy. He could not help but smack his lips and say,"This thing is quite heavy! It's even better than my tools."
Just as they were checking the grave robbing tools on the ground.
All of a sudden, the sound of opera singing rang out once again. The sound of ghosts crying echoed in the tomb.
"The singing is coming again. Could there really be those things?”
Eighth Master Qi Tiezui was so frightened that he threw away the Luoyang shovel in his hand.
He quickly hid behind Lord Zeng.
His face was filled with fear.
He was not the only one. Even Lord Zeng and Adjutant Zhang had ugly expressions on their faces. After all, they had not found any traces of anyone along the way. Logically speaking, there should not be any singing. However, this opera had been following them all this time.
Therefore, they had to think too much.
However, unlike the others, they were nervous.
Zhang Qifeng's face was calm, but there was still a hint of a smile.
"Little Lord Zeng, aren't you afraid?" Master Eight asked subconsciously.
"Afraid? What is there to be afraid of?"
"This opera singing! Don't you find it strange? How could there be such a singing sound in an empty tomb of Nan Bei Chao?”Lord Eight reminded.
"It's just an opera performance. What's there to be afraid of? Besides, don't you think that the opera performance sounds familiar?”
Zhang Qifeng said indifferently.
"Familiar? What do you mean?"
Lord Zeng asked curiously.
"Big brother, do you still remember the first day I came to Changsha City? At that time, when you brought me to Er Yuehong's theater to listen to the opera, this voice was somewhat similar to his.”Zhang Qifeng said with a smile.
"That's right, there are indeed some similarities. Second Brother, do you mean that this opera song is sung by February Red? But that was impossible! Our current location should be very far from Changsha City. Why is February Red performing here?”Lord Zeng was still puzzled.
"That's right, Big Brother. It's indeed impossible for Er Yuehong to be performing here. However, since this voice belongs to Second Master, it means that there's nothing strange at all. After all, who would be so bored as to imitate Second Master's singing?”Zhang Qifeng explained casually.
"Not a ghost? Then you mean it was man-made? Someone deliberately used the sound of an opera to scare us away.”
Lord Zeng was able to become the garrison officer of Changsha City.
Naturally, he was also very intelligent.
Therefore, he naturally understood what Zhang Qifeng meant.
"You're right, and if I'm not wrong, this singing is definitely the work of the pirates.”Zhang Qifeng said indifferently.
"Damn pirates, you dare to scare me? Fortunately, the little Empress Dowager was observant. Otherwise, my fortune-teller would have been scared to death by them. Lord Zeng, since we know it's the work of the pirates, should we find them?”
Master Eight, who was originally a little afraid.
When he found out that someone was deliberately scaring him, he was instantly furious.
He immediately wanted to arrest the Japanese pirates.
"You can't do that. Lord Myna, big brother, the enemy is in the dark, and we are in the light. Moreover, we didn't bring any weapons with us when we came out this time, so we're alone. A direct confrontation would be disadvantageous to us. Moreover, we haven't figured out the intentions of the pirates yet. It won't be too late to kill them after we've investigated everything.”Zhang Qifeng stopped him.
"Second brother is right. Let them go first. It's most important to investigate the matter in the ancient tomb.”
Lord Zeng thought for a moment and nodded.
While the three of them were discussing the plan.
Deputy Zhang, who was inspecting the tomb, said,"Lord Zeng, Lord Zeng, come here quickly. There's a stone door here. It seems to be the tomb of the tomb owner. Should we go in and take a look?”
