According to Fang Qiong's previous description, she accidentally discovered the Tomb of the Sun and opened a relatively complete ship-shaped wooden coffin.

Inside the coffin, she saw a shriveled but not rotten corpse. There was a dazzling emerald ring on the corpse's hand, and there was a turtle shell engraved with strange symbols on its chest.

When she put away the turtle shell and wanted to get the emerald ring, the corpse suddenly grabbed her.

She was so frightened that she ran away, so she only got the turtle shell that later enabled her to master the "Nightmare Technique", but not the emerald ring.

so……

This is the Tomb of the Sun that Fang Qiong visited before, and is this corpse the one she tried to take away but failed in the end?

Wu Liang kept a distance and looked at the male corpse carefully.

Judging from the current condition of the male corpse, there is not much difference between the death of the male corpse and the naked female corpse. It feels very much like they died at the same time.

But if we refer to Fang Qiong's previous description, this male corpse should not be the same as those female corpses, because Fang Qiong had not seen the current female corpses in the Tomb of the Sun. In other words, those female corpses were found after Fang Qiong left.

It just appeared here, and if this male corpse is the same one that Fang Qiong had seen, it should have died much earlier than those female corpses, and it is very likely that it may even be the same age as the Tomb of the Sun.

Unless, this male corpse came to the Tomb of the Sun later, successfully obtained the emerald ring, and put it on his hand.

In other words, this male corpse and those female corpses belong to the same group.

But there are still many problems that puzzle Wu Liang.

For example: Why is this male corpse wearing animal skins, but the female corpses are naked?

Another example: Why are those female corpses exactly the same?

If there are only two or three, Wu Liang can still understand them as twins or triplets, but there are so many...either Wu Liang looks down on the medical level of this era, or in later generations when the medical level has been quite advanced,

It is basically impossible for a woman who is pregnant with triplets or more to give birth naturally, otherwise it would be tantamount to suicide, let alone in this era.

What's more, with such a large number, it is no longer a question of multiple births or not, but a question of species. It is simply impossible for humans to have such fertility.

Coupled with Fang Qiong's previous identity as a "witch", this issue is still full of suspense and is worthy of further investigation.

"Dian Wei, Yang Wanli, you two protect me, I will try to take off the ring."

With this in mind, Wu Liang said to Dian Wei and Yang Wanli.

After hearing the words, the two people immediately accompanied Wu Liang, and Dian Wei even took the diamond umbrella from Wu Liang's hand, ensuring that no matter what happens, Wu Liang can be protected behind the umbrella as soon as possible.

Wu Liang slowly crossed the pile of female corpses and came to the male corpse leaning on the coffin.

Then he carefully lowered his body and reached out his gloved hand to the emerald ring on the male corpse's hand.

"..."

Everyone also held their breath and watched Wu Liang's every move.

Although they had not heard about Fang Qiong's experience in detail, Wu Liang's cautious attitude also made them realize that this matter might be unusual.

finally.

Wu Liang's hand touched the emerald ring.

At the same time, he subconsciously looked at the male corpse, but the male corpse showed no reaction.

"call--"

Wu Liang adjusted his breathing slightly, held the emerald ring with two fingers, and carefully moved it down along the fingers of the male corpse.

The male corpse still showed no reaction.

This continued until the emerald ring completely separated from the male corpse's finger and fell into Wu Liang's hands. The male corpse still did not show any abnormalities as Fang Qiong had previously described.

"Did Fang Qiong lie before?"

"Or has this male corpse turned into an ordinary corpse after being touched by Fang Qiong?"

Wu Liang looked at the emerald ring in his hand, but could not see anything unique about it, such as inscriptions, symbols, markings, and other details related to the identity of the male corpse or the Tomb of the Sun.

This looks like an emerald ring that should be very valuable, but to Wu Liang it is very ordinary.

Wu Liang was puzzled.

In the end, I had to put this issue aside for the time being and continue to look at other things on site.

Apart from the male corpse and the dazzling emerald ring on his hand, the most eye-catching thing here is the boat-shaped wooden coffin...

Wu Liang only took one look and immediately discovered another problem.

On the lid of this boat-shaped wooden coffin, there are indeed three relatively new cracks as Fang Qiong described before.

This crack is not too big. If you get close enough, you should be able to see a little bit of the inside of the coffin, but it is only a glimpse. If you want to see the complete situation inside, you still need to open the coffin lid.

But the question is, why is the coffin lid closed?

Wu Liang remembered clearly that Fang Qiong said before that she fled in panic after being frightened by the male corpse that suddenly moved, and then walked out of the desert inexplicably.

Would a person who was frightened and panic-stricken still politely put the coffin lid back on the owner of the tomb?

Fang Qiong didn't mention this.

In addition, Fang Qiong never said anything about throwing the male corpse out of the coffin, but at this moment, the male corpse fell outside the coffin.

so……

Could it be that after Fang Qiong left, other people really arrived here and did something, causing the situation here to be different from Fang Qiong's previous description?

But if that's the case, why wasn't the emerald ring on the male corpse's hand taken off?

In Wu Liang's opinion, whether the visitor is asking for money or something else, there should be no reason to ignore such a conspicuous ring. Anyway, if it were him, since he had already taken it off, then

It must be taken away, even if you don’t care about the money, it would be nice to keep a souvenir...

With such speculation.

Wu Liang continued to observe the boat-shaped wooden coffin carefully. Like the emerald ring, except for the slightly peculiar shape, this coffin also looked like an ordinary wooden coffin.

He did not find any words or symbols on the surface of the coffin, not even decorative patterns.

In this case, Wu Liang had no choice but to move closer to the cracks on the coffin lid.

Sunlight shines into the interior of the coffin through these narrow cracks, and the range that can be seen is extremely limited.

However, Wu Liang still saw something that seemed to be a human hand!

"There may be a body stored in here!"

Wu Liang took a breath, turned around and said to everyone in the Hu army.

She now believes Fang Qiong's previous confession more and more, because Fang Qiong said that it was through the gap in the coffin lid that she saw the emerald ring on the tomb owner's hand, so she mustered up the courage to open the coffin.

And now Wu Liang happened to see something that looked like a human hand through the gap in the coffin lid. If there was really a corpse inside, this would be enough to prove that Fang Qiong was not lying about this matter.

"Then... Master, do we want to open the coffin?"

Of course there will be corpses in the coffin, and it is not the first time for everyone to go to the grave, so naturally they will not be frightened by such a normal thing, but they are not sure what Wu Liang's words mean.

If Yu Ji knew that Wu Liang had judged based on the existing situation, there should not be a corpse in the coffin, and this guy would probably hide behind him out of habit.

"Of course, otherwise why are we here?"

Wu Liang nodded.

There are no three long and two short straps on this boat-shaped wooden coffin, and there are no nails driven into the coffin lid. The lid, which seems to be slightly larger than the coffin body, is simply covered like a ceiling.

So Dian Wei and Yang Wanli took the initiative to step forward.

In view of the fact that the coffin had cracks on the coffin and the surface of the coffin body seemed to have decayed to varying degrees, the two men gently lifted the entire coffin lid under Wu Liang's instructions, and then lifted the coffin lid.

It was gently removed and set aside to avoid further damage.

After removing the coffin lid, everyone followed Wu Liang to the side of the coffin, stretching their necks to look inside.

It doesn't matter if you look at it.

"Fang, Fang Qiong?!"

Yu Ji was the first to scream and hugged Zhuge Liang beside him.

This time no one can admit his mistake, it is Fang Qiong who is lying in the coffin!

It was different from those naked female corpses I had seen before.

At this moment, the woman in the coffin was wearing tattered cloth, and except for the fact that there was no trace of blood on her face and skin, she looked like a living person who had just fallen asleep!

And just by looking at her face, everyone could immediately tell that this woman must be Fang Qiong!

It's just that it's the smaller Fang Qiong.

She was slightly smaller than Fang Qiong captured by Wu Liang and others, and visually she was about the same size as the female corpses lying outside.

Apart from being slightly childish, his facial features looked no different from the Fang Qiong they captured. They were almost carved from the same mold!

And compared with the "stone statue" of Fang Qiong, who had been turned into powder before, it is exactly the same, even the hairstyle and hair length are exactly the same!

so.

Yu Ji was right. The woman lying inside was Fang Qiong. There was absolutely no mistake!

"Wu Youcai, this matter is getting more and more strange..."
