Chapter 1719

At the moment when the human coffin was opened, a black smoke suddenly shot out from around the human coffin.

A few people had been on guard for a long time. At the moment when the black smoke was emitted, they had retreated quickly.

The black smoke sent out a strong smell of putrefaction. Although they had quickly dodged, the disgusting smell still made people's stomach turn upside down.

"Be careful, most of the black smoke is poisonous! Hold your breath

Xu Shaotang said while holding his breath. When Lao Jiu was about to speak, he was already pulled out of the palace by Xu Shaotang.

Others, seeing this, withdrew from the palace one after another.

Looking at the enemies, Lao Jiu couldn't help laughing bitterly. He gently pulled Xu Shaotang and said slowly, "Xu Shao, the black smoke should be corpse gas. Don't be nervous."

"Corpse Qi? Is it not poison smoke? " Xu Shaotang asked in dismay.

"In fact, it's also a kind of poisonous smoke. It's a kind of gas produced by human bodies after thousands of years of erosion." Lao Jiu slowly explained: "this kind of corpse gas usually contains fatal viruses and bacteria, but as long as it is not sprayed on the face, it should not be too serious."

"Is that so?"

Xu Shaotang looked at Lao Jiu awkwardly and said, "anyway, they all came out. Let's wait for the corpse gas to dissipate for a while before going in."

Almost to the end, he didn't want to have any accident at this time because of their carelessness.

More than ten minutes later, Xu Shaotang slowly enters first, making sure that the disgusting smell inside has dissipated. Xu Shaotang then signals everyone to come in.

When I came to the opened human coffin, I saw a dead body wrapped in black cloth. I don't know how many years the cloth on the body had gone through. When they got close to it, the cloth quickly weathered because it came into contact with the air. At first, it was only light black, and then the black became deeper and deeper Finally, it becomes a fine dust.

At this time, the bodies inside began to show their faces.

The corpse was already shriveled, and its original appearance could not be seen at all. It seemed that there was a bead in the mouth of the corpse.

The bead that can be held in the mouth by the corpse is certainly a valuable treasure, but at the moment, we have no interest in it. We just want to know whether the legendary ark of the covenant is here or not!

"This Should it be the body of the Pharaoh? " Looking at the shriveled body in front of him, Milo said with some uncertainty.

"Should be..." Xu Shaotang nodded slightly and looked at the place in front of him suspiciously. "If the ark of the covenant really exists and is really in the pyramid, is it here most likely?"

They had almost searched all over the place, but they didn't even see the ark. He really couldn't figure out where else to put it.

"Under normal circumstances, it should be." Joseph nodded slightly and said, "but I don't rule out the possibility that there is a special place to hide the ark."

Xu Shaotang thought carefully, shook his head slightly and said: "even if there is this place, it should also be here. Let's look for it and see if there is any dark grid."

There are so many traps designed here. It's not only a bit of luck to find it, but also the result of several tests of life and death. If ordinary people believe that they have already died in this pyramid, they don't think it's necessary to find another place to place the ark, because it's really safe enough.

"All right!"

Joseph nodded and took the lead in searching the palace.

In fact, it's not very big here. After more than an hour, we searched every corner of the place, but we still didn't find any place where there seems to be a dark grid.

"Where is it?"

Unable to find it, Xu Shaotang's heart began to become restless. He kept pacing back and forth in the tomb, thinking about where the ark might be hidden.

Not only Xu Shaotang, but also everyone was very upset. How hard it took them to find this place, and many of their companions died because they were looking for it. Now they are facing the dilemma of getting nothing. Everyone feels extremely angry.

Looking at Xu Shaotang's fidgety appearance, Lao Jiu said softly, "Xu Shao, why don't you have a rest first, and I'll look for it carefully?"

"How are you going to find it?" Xu Shaotang looks up at Lao Jiu. All kinds of signs show that the geomantic omen theory that Lao Jiu relies on is useless here. All the arrangements here are not related to geomantic omen. He really doesn't know how Lao Jiu can find it.

Lao Jiu shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know. Anyway, just look around. I agree with you. If the ark is really in this pyramid, it should only be in this place!"

"But we've searched all over here..." Xu Shaotang some dejected said."No!" Lao Jiu shook his head slightly and said, "we only look for places that our eyes can see. There are still some places that our eyes can't see!"

Hearing Lao Jiu's words, Xu Shaotang jumped in his heart and said, "for example?"

"There, for example!"

Then Lao Jiu reached for the golden coffin.

"Well?" Xu Shaotang's eyes moved slightly and asked, "do you mean that there may be interlayer in the gold coffin?"

"Yes

Lao Jiu nodded and said, "take a rest first. I'll go and see the situation inside the golden coffin."

"I'll go with you!" After all, Xu Shaotang is not sure about Lao Jiu's safety. In case there is any trap around the golden coffin, he may be killed if he is not careful.

Lao Jiu nodded. First he went to the coffin and estimated the thickness of the coffin. Then he said to Xu Shaotang, "Xu Shao, help me find something to find out how deep the coffin is!"

There was a thick layer of gold articles and gems in the coffin. He could not see how deep it was.

Hearing Lao Jiu's words, Xu Shaotang immediately understood his meaning, went to Milo and said, "use your Epee!"

"Good!" Milo nods and hands the Epee to Xu Shaotang.

Xu Shaotang immediately took the Epee * gold coffin, estimated it and said to Lao Jiu, "this layer of gold and gems is about 50 cm."

"That human coffin is about 40 centimeters thick!" Lao Jiu thought about it and said, "the height of the golden coffin is only a little more than one meter. There should be no interlayer inside..."

"Indeed

In fact, there is no need for Lao Jiu to say that Xu Shaotang also understands this truth. Seeing that Lao Jiu's conjecture has also failed, the hope color on his face has not yet completely dissipated.

Seeing Xu Shaotang's disappointed look, Lao Jiu said quietly, "there's another place to look for!"
