Chapter 169 Carrying the corpse into the grave

A few months passed, and Mr. Zhou became seriously ill. After explaining his son in front of the sick bed, he called in two more personal servants, Ding Zhouhao and Wang Liu.

Mrs. Zhou sighed lowly, glanced at the two of them and said, "How do you usually treat you, Master?"

The two servants looked at each other, and with a plop, they knelt down in front of Old Mrs. Zhou's hospital bed and said with tears in their eyes: "The old lady has shown great kindness to me. I will work as a cow or horse in my next life, and I vow to continue to serve the old lady."

Mr. Zhou nodded, took out two banknotes, and said to the two of them: "You two are indeed my most trusted people. Keep these two banknotes. Master, I know that my life is over. Look,

For the sake of my kindness to you, after my death, you will quietly carry my body into the mausoleum. After that, you two will go far away, keep secret about this matter, and will never come back here again.

.”

After Zhou Hao and Wang Liu cried loudly and repeatedly, Mr. Zhou closed his eyes and there was no more sound.

Zhou Hao tested Mr. Zhou's breathing and found that Mr. Zhou was dead and burst into tears.

In accordance with the old lady's secret instructions during his lifetime, the son of Mr. Zhou asked Zhou Hao and Wang Liu overnight to take the gold and silver jewelry with them and carry the body of the old man to the mausoleum.

Mr. Zhou’s son decorated the mourning hall, prepared an empty coffin, and held a grand funeral. A few days later, Mr. Zhou was buried in style. Of course, this was just a fake tomb, and since then, Zhou Hao and Wang Liu suddenly disappeared from the world.

.

Mr. Zhou's son praised the actions of these two righteous servants and forbade everyone to talk about it. A few years later, after everything calmed down, everyone gradually forgot about it.

Besides, on the night of Mr. Zhou's death, Zhou Hao and Wang Liu quietly gathered together. They packed their belongings and prepared to send Mr. Zhou's body to the mausoleum and then leave.

On the night that Mr. Zhou died, there was a thunderstorm. Zhou Hao and Wang Liu took turns carrying Mr. Zhou's body and quietly came to the secret entrance of the mausoleum.

The two entered the entrance of the tomb, cleverly avoiding the many traps designed in the tomb, and arrived at the main tomb.

Although Mr. Zhou is extremely wealthy, he has spent most of his family funds to build this mausoleum. Although the tomb is luxurious and luxurious, it is comparable to the tomb of an emperor. However, there are not too many funerary objects in the tomb. The most conspicuous thing is,

The stone coffin covered with gold in the center of the main tomb shone with golden light under the ever-burning lamp that was lit in the tomb.

The two carefully followed Mr. Zhou's instructions before he died and placed his body in a stone coffin covered with silk and satin and covered with gold.

Zhou Hao followed the old man's instructions, took out a wet handkerchief that smelled of herbal medicine that the old man gave him, and covered the old man's face.

After everything was settled, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief and began to carefully look at Mr. Zhou's tomb. The eight blue and dim lamps shining around clearly illuminated everything in the tomb.

In addition to the golden coffin, there are also some of Mr. Zhou's favorite antiques placed around it, and a pile of gold and silver jewelry are placed next to the coffin. But these are not what the two of them care about most. They are both thinking about the old man.

Where are the eight luminous pearls that I loved most during my lifetime?

The two of them looked at it for a while and found nothing. They couldn't help but feel puzzled and disappointed.

Zhou Hao inadvertently looked up and saw that in the center of the main tomb chamber, directly above the coffin, was an exquisitely carved stone box. From the gaps in the stone box, some faint blue light was faintly revealed.

Zhou Hao was overjoyed and said to Wang Liu: "Brother, look at the light above, is it from the eight luminous pearls?"

Wang Liu was overjoyed when he heard this. He looked at it for a while and confirmed that it was exactly the kind of light he saw when Mr. Zhou was admiring the luminous pearl at night.

The two looked at each other for a long time, both silent, and the thoughts in their hearts could be seen in each other's eyes.

Zhou Hao said tentatively: "Wang Liu, those eight night-light pearls are truly priceless. Compared with them, other gold and silver jewelry are not worth mentioning. We brothers broke up and lived in seclusion in the mountains and wilderness from now on?"

"

Wang Liuyin smiled: "Death is like a lamp going out. We have served the old man all our lives, working as cows and horses. Now that the old man has passed away, it is our turn as brothers to enjoy the glory and wealth of life."

When Zhou Hao heard this, he understood in his heart and immediately echoed: "Wang Liu, do you think these eight luminous pearls, if we two brothers each share half of them, how much property can we buy?"

Wang Liu laughed loudly: "Zhou Hao, don't say so much. Since we have the same idea, what are we waiting for? In this way, we climb on the coffin, take down the luminous pearls, divide them equally, and leave here quickly.

.”

While the two were talking proudly, there was suddenly a gentle gasp and the sound of something gently scratching.

At this time, the two of them screamed in fright. They stood back to back and looked around the tomb.

After looking for a while, they found nothing unusual. They then looked at Mr. Zhou lying in the coffin. They still closed their eyes tightly and remained motionless.

Zhou Hao and Wang Liu finally calmed down and thought to themselves that the gasping sound and the sound of paddling something were probably made by the other party unintentionally. It was so scary that they were frightened to death.

.

When Wang Liu was not paying attention, Zhou Hao quietly took out a dagger from his waist, hid it in his sleeve, and slowly approached Wang Liu.

When Wang Liu saw Zhou Hao approaching, he suddenly let out a sigh and said, "Zhou Hao, look, why is the light of the night pearl gone?"

Zhou Hao was stunned. He raised his eyes and followed Wang Liu's fingers, only to see that the blue light was still there. Knowing something was wrong, Zhou Hao took out a dagger from his sleeve and stabbed Wang Liu fiercely.

Who would have expected that when he stabbed Wang Liu in the abdomen, he would already feel a sharp pain in his chest. Zhou Hao subconsciously covered his chest with his hand, but he encountered something cold and a handful of hot, wet mucus.

.

Zhou Hao looked down and saw a gleaming dagger stuck in his chest. Blood was gurgling out from the wound. The bright red blood sprayed on the bright dagger, which looked so terrifying and weird.

Seeing Zhou Hao clutching his chest and falling down, Wang Liu sneered and said: "Zhou Hao, don't blame me for being too cruel. With so many treasures, how could anyone not be tempted? Didn't you also take action? If I hadn't taken action just now

Hurry, I'm afraid the one who falls down now will be me."

There was also a faint pain in Wang Liu's lower abdomen. Zhou Hao's dagger just now had penetrated deeply into his lower abdomen. But Wang Liu did not dare to pull out the dagger easily at this time. He knew in his heart that if he pulled out the dagger, the blood would not stop flowing.

I'm afraid he will never get out of this tomb again.

Wang Liu endured the severe pain and glanced at the old man lying in the coffin. He couldn't help but have an idea in his heart.

Wang Liu took out the dagger from Zhou Hao's chest, staggered to the coffin, and used the dagger to cut a piece of silk from the body of Old Mrs. Zhou.

Wang Liu gritted his teeth and struggled to pull out the dagger inserted in his abdomen. He suddenly broke out in cold sweat, screamed, and fell to the ground.

He endured the severe pain and bandaged his abdomen with silk several times, finally stopping the bleeding.

Wang Liu, who had lost too much blood and turned pale, finally calmed down a little and stared at the luminous pearl above the coffin.

Wang Liu regretted so much at this moment. If he had known that the Night Pearl could only be obtained by standing on the coffin, he should not have taken action earlier. Instead, he should have coaxed Zhou Hao to close the coffin lid first, and then step on the coffin lid to remove the Night Pearl before taking action.

.

At this time, there was no room for regret. Wang Liu gritted his teeth and climbed onto the coffin, stepping on the edge of the coffin with both feet.

Just as Wang Liu stepped on the edge of the coffin with his feet and wanted to stand up and take off the luminous pearl on it, he suddenly heard a sinister sneer.

Wang Liu was so shocked that he was bending over the coffin. When he saw the old man lying in the coffin, he opened his eyes, met his eyes, looked straight at Wang Liu, and let out a burst of

A sneer.

Wang Liu was so frightened that he almost fainted. Before he could recover, he felt a chill in his chest, followed by a sharp pain.

With a "pop" sound, Wang Liu fell heavily onto the blue brick floor of the main tomb outside the coffin.

Mr. Zhou, who had been dead for a long time, slowly climbed up from the coffin. He stepped out of the coffin, holding the gleaming dagger in his hand, and approached Wang Liu step by step.

Blood continued to flow out. Wang Liu could no longer feel the pain due to fear. He lay on the ground and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Old man, spare my life. I know I was wrong. Please see me.
