Chapter Forty-Six: The Wooden Armor Geisha

Seeing the scene behind the door, everyone gasped. Hao Xiangrou also looked shocked, obviously not knowing in advance that it would be such a scene.

"These beauties are all from the Qing Dynasty?" Dou Dabao muttered, "Are they alive or dead?" ”

The blind man and I looked at each other, not knowing how to speak for a moment.

The women after the case were all dressed in Qing Dynasty court costumes, although they could not be said to be beautiful and fragrant, but they were all good-looking. Each of them had a musical instrument, a flute, a lute, a harp...... It seems to have been waiting here, playing beautiful music for those who enter this hall.

However, the most eye-catching thing is the location directly facing the iron gate.

It's the same long case, but it's twice as big as the one on both sides. And behind this long case covered with yellow brocade, there was only one woman.

Unlike the other women, the clothes worn by this woman obviously did not belong to the Qing Dynasty, but a simple gray coarse cloth skirt with no musical instrument in her arms.

But compared to other women, this woman's appearance is several times more gorgeous.

The blind man looked around and whispered, "There has been no water here, and it has always been closed. When the door opened, the air from outside flowed in, and it was the ever-bright lamp here that was ignited. ”

Ever-bright lights!

My heart fluttered, and I subconsciously glanced at Jinghai.

It's not that the old monk has any movements, but when I heard the blind man talk about the reason for the spontaneous combustion of the lights here, I suddenly thought of the Jiaolong Attached Phoenix Bureau that I had entered in the Northeast not long ago.

The feeling after entering the iron gate is surprisingly similar to the feeling when I first entered the 'Tomb of the Concubine'.

"Is this a burial chamber?" I blurted out.

"These female musicians are all martyrs?" Dou Dabao's eyes widened in horror.

He suddenly pointed to a piece of paper near the iron door, "There seems to be one missing on that table." ”

took a look, and sure enough, there was only one woman sitting behind the case.

I've been so confused by the idea that I can't even care about a few heads. I've heard of sky burials, sea burials, and even hanging coffins and tree burials, but I've never heard of anyone building a burial chamber on a ship. But the feeling I feel here is surprisingly similar to being in a tomb.

The blind man looked at me, took out the compass from his bag, looked down, and his expression immediately became strange.

The blind man said, "The compass is out of order!" ”

"Hey, what are you doing? Be careful! Zhao Qi said suddenly.

Following the sound, I saw that Hao Xiangrou had already walked straight to the case in the middle, and was leaning over to check the woman behind the case.

I couldn't help but step aside to find out what was going on with these women.

It's more like a wax figure than a living person, except that the surface of the skin of these women doesn't have a waxy luster.

I stared at a woman with a lute in her arms for a while, and I didn't see any clues, so I wanted to reach out and touch her cheek, and even a little absurdly wanted to find out if she still had a snort.

But just as I stretched out my hand, I inadvertently saw a stain on the sleeve of the woman's wrist.

I was attracted by this smudge, and subconsciously looked at it twice, and when I saw a detail, my pupils couldn't help but shrink suddenly.

The woman's hands were also stained with black stains, and in addition to this, there was a mark of friction on her palm.

It was precisely because the color of this mark was so contrasting with the smudge that an extremely terrifying thought immediately flashed through my mind.

I took a deep breath, took a closer look at the woman's face, and reached for the collar of her flag.

Pull open the neckline and take a look inside......

"Woe to you, aren't you? They're all dead. Dou Dabao said behind his back.

"Dead man's fart!" I felt my voice go out of tune, and I panicked back.

Because of the panic, I tripped on both feet, and almost didn't sit on the ground with my buttocks.

"What's wrong?" The blind man came and held me and asked.

I wiped a cold sweat from my head: "These are not people, they are puppets!" ”

"What?!" Jing Hai, who had been frowning, suddenly widened his eyes.

"These women are all made of wood, they have blood on their hands, and the crew members were killed by them!" As soon as I said it, I felt a chill coming out of my hairs.

How can a person made of wood kill people without a soul?

However, judging from the blood stains on the sleeves and hands of the puppets, as well as the traces of the rubbing of the palms, a clear picture almost came to my mind.

A puppet that resembled a real person silently came behind a crew member and unexpectedly plunged the wooden nail in his hand into his eye!

Monk Jinghai's eyes quickly rolled, revealing a shocked expression: "Could it be...... Wooden Armor Geisha? ”

He jerked his eyes up and shouted, "Don't touch that coffin!" ”

Coffin?

I was taken aback, and when I turned around, I saw that Hao Xiangrou had already uncovered the brocade covered by the 'strip case' in the middle.

Only then did I see that under the brocade was not a case, but a huge wooden coffin!

"Found it!" Hao Xiangrou said excitedly, "Zhao Qi, come over and help open the coffin!" Fast! ”

"Huh...... Hehehe......"

Before she could finish speaking, the woman behind the coffin suddenly let out a sneer.

"Ahh

Hao Xiangrou was so frightened by the sudden sound that she screamed and staggered back.

Dou Dabao subconsciously took a step back, "That...... That woman isn't a puppet? She's alive? ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the woman who was originally motionless suddenly raised a hand and patted it lightly on the coffin, "Smack!" ”

My heart trembled, and I vaguely felt like a catastrophe was coming.

Immediately after, the woman's other hand was also raised, and it was also patted on the coffin.

"Xu Wo ......" Ji Yayun suddenly pulled me, pointed to the side and said in a trembling voice: "Look at ......"

Looking in the direction of her finger, the blood all over my body suddenly turned cold.

The puppets who looked like real people with their eyes lowered down before all opened their eyes at this moment, slowly rolled their eyes, and looked at us!

In the next second, the puppets played their instruments.

My nerves were tense to the limit, but when I heard the first string sound, I felt like I had been given an overdose of anesthetic, and I instantly relaxed.

The sudden relaxation made my consciousness a little drowsy for a short time, but then I felt a small cold hand in my left hand.

It's Ji Yayun.

Oh no, I've been tricked!

I woke up suddenly, pushing the tip of my tongue between my teeth as I struggled to open my eyes.

I originally wanted to bite the tip of my tongue, but when I opened my eyes, I saw that Zhao Qi and Hao Xiangrou had already run to the coffin and were working together to open the lid of the coffin.

"Don't touch the coffin!" I said loudly.

But it was too late.

The coffin didn't seem to be nailed, and just when I stopped it, Zhao Qi and Hao Xiangrou had already lifted the lid of the coffin to the side.

Zhao Qi glanced into the coffin, but as if he saw something unbelievable, his eyes widened and he gasped, and then he raised his head and looked at me with complicated eyes.

After a while, he said slowly: "It's Xu Jie." ”
