After reaching a preliminary agreement, the two sides no longer had their previous hostility.
"What should I do now?" the shadow asked.
"Let's go in first. It's not very safe here. If we attract any patrolling passengers, things won't be good!" After Fang Zishu finished speaking, the black figure nodded her head in agreement, and quietly closed the cabin door, allowing everything to return to its previous state.
After entering the cabin, only then did Fang Zishu realise that hanging on the black figure's waist was a bulging bag, and there should be a lot of things stored inside. It was obvious that the black shadow had made the same detailed preparations as them before it set out.
Of course, this thought flashed past Fang Zishu's mind.
Seeing that there was no one around, Fang Zishu immediately placed the 'Corpse Worm' in his bosom onto the ground.
To be honest, Fang Zishu did not dare take out the High Focusing Flashlight that he had prepared beforehand. He was afraid that the strong light from the flashlight would attract the attention of the patrolling guards outside. In this kind of situation, Fang Zishu could only take out the burning candle that he rarely used. Although the light and two degrees of this candle was far from that of the High Focusing Flashlight, it was enough to see the position of the 'Corpse Worm' in such a dark place.
Moreover, there was a red line as the link between him and the Corpse Worm.
Therefore, he was not afraid of not being able to find the specific location of the 'Corpse Worm' due to the lack of light.
Under the illumination of the flammable candle, Fang Zishu discovered that the 'Corpse Worm' he placed on the ground, was swaying its body, quickly crawling deeper into the cabin. Seeing this scene, Fang Zishu's heart was filled with joy, he knew that this' Corpse Worm 'must have found something, if not, the' lazy 'Corpse Worm would not be working so hard right now.
The interior of the cabin was very spacious and contained a lot of things, but the Corpse Worm were not interested in anything.
"Why is there a stench coming from the cabin?"
The cop covered his nose, his face full of disdain.
In truth, Fang Zishu also smelled a suffocating stench. Just as he moved the candle and was about to investigate, he saw the black figure take out a fire piston, and shine it into the cabin.
Very quickly, Fang Zishu noticed that his brows were knitted, as if he had discovered something unusual.
"What's wrong?" Fang Zishu asked.
The black shadow did not reply, but took out a piece of Yellow Talisman s from his bag, and under Fang Zishu's and the young man's watch, the black shadow's hands turned, and then the Yellow Talisman s flew out and ignited in the cabin.
As the yellow paper burned, the stinky odors from before vanished into thin air.
"The God of Purchasing Curse?"
Fang Zishu's pupils shrank. He had originally thought that the mysterious person who was cooperating with them was just a thief that was sufficiently prepared.
But from the looks of it, he had guessed wrongly the true identity of this mysterious person.
Although this mysterious person that they were working with was a thief, he was able to use the 'Purificer God Curse' so skillfully. This was enough to prove that this mysterious person that they were working with, his other identity was definitely a Warlock from one of the four big sects, 'Purificer Gold', 'Goosebumps', or 'Shifting Mountain'.
Only, right now, Fang Zishu still could not tell which faction this mysterious person belonged to among the Four Major Sects!
"What's going on?"
Seeing that the mysterious man had used only a paper of Yellow Talisman s to eliminate the strange smell in the inner cabin, the officer was immediately shocked.
"It is a kind of simple seal, it is to reference two flows of Yin Qi, wrap it around this place and then form a relatively sealed space. If an ordinary person who did not understand this came rushing in, they would be affected by these two forces and would hallucinate, forming something like a ghost wall. "Actually, this is one of the Dao Arts. It seems like this ship is indeed extraordinary!"
Hearing that, Fang Zishu's eyes widened.
At the same time, he was also a little afraid.
Although he felt that something was amiss earlier, he did not know what the problem was. If not for the determination of the black shadow 'Talisman', he would have fallen into the owner's trap by now.
"Which of the four sects are you from?"
Fang Zishu couldn't suppress his curiosity and wanted to know the identity of the black figure.
However, the black shadow clearly did not want to answer that question, so after the seal was broken, it went inside.
Fang Zishu was startled for a moment, and then immediately revealed a helpless expression.
He could only call for the police and follow along.
Following the pathway, Fang Zishu and the rest walked for another tens of metres.
At this moment, a huge metal box appeared in everyone's line of sight.
"Why would there be such a large iron box here?" The policeman revealed a surprised expression.
This time, Fang Zishu spoke first, "Officer, this is not an ordinary metal box, if my judgement is not wrong, this should be a strangely shaped coffin, and there should be a corpse inside!"
"Coffin …" "Coffin?"
The officer swallowed his saliva and said: "Zishu, this... "How could this be a coffin?"
"This is indeed a coffin."
At this time, the mysterious man dressed in night attire also spoke, "In the knowledge of many people, coffins are mostly made of wood, but those ancient officials and dignitaries who were born in ancient times made their coffins out of bronze or gold, so it is not surprising for an iron coffin to appear here."
Pausing, the black shadow continued, "Of course, the shape of this coffin is quite rare."
Just as the black shadow spoke, the 'Corpse Worm' that was lying on the ground suddenly let out a low cry.
Fang Zishu's pupils contracted, and he looked at the Corpse Worm once again.
He did not hear wrongly, it was indeed the Corpse Worm's true cry just now.
In addition, the cries became more and more intense.
It seemed like the Corpse Worm had identified the corpse inside the metal box.
Otherwise, why would he let out such a high-pitched screech for no reason at all?
The cries of the Corpse Worm were as ear-piercing as the cicadas on a summer tree. Fang Zishu was afraid that the sharp cries from the Corpse Worm would attract the attention of the patrolling soldiers on the deck, so without thinking, he squatted down and used a bamboo tube that he carried around to fill up the Corpse Worm that was letting out sharp cries. Then, he closed the lid in time.
Seeing that everything was normal, Fang Zishu heaved a sigh of relief.
Fang Zishu also wanted to know the situation of the corpse inside the coffin at this moment, so he quickly walked forward, wanting to open the lid of the coffin.
However, the metal coffin's lid was simply too heavy. With just Fang Zishu alone, not to mention moving it, even shaking it was an extremely difficult task. Seeing how difficult it was for Fang Zishu to move, the policeman at the side walked over and helped him, but even with both of them working together, they could only make the lid of the coffin move slightly, unable to lift it or remove it completely.
Seeing that, Fang Zishu knew that just with their strength, it was impossible for them to move the lid of the metal coffin, thus he turned his gaze towards the mysterious man, and panted: "Don't just stand there, quickly come over and help us open this strangely shaped coffin, who knows, maybe the 'Two-sided Threaded Glass Beast' that you were looking for will be stored inside this coffin?"
