【019】Who is the final winner

Thinking that the task was about to be completed, the hunchbacked master couldn't hide his joy on his cunning face. He gently touched the lame housekeeper beside him and whispered: "What treasure do you like the prince's most?"

The lame housekeeper smiled and said without a smile: "I want the prince's night pearl, Master - you wouldn't have thought of a piece for me?" The lame housekeeper tentatively stared at the other party; his pointed chin, a sparse and gray beard, and his hooked nose and mouse eyes looked more and more like a sinister and cunning villain-

The hunchbacked master was looked at by the other party so straightforwardly, looking embarrassed. A pair of thief-shaped eyes turned around, trying to restrain the unconcealed joy, and said with a haha: "There, there, brother, I'm interested in the dragon and phoenix in the treasure house, and I won't think of a piece for you." He said this, but muttered in his heart: Damn, who doesn't know the abacus in your heart, has long been eyeing the extraordinary purple dragon jade pendant on the prince's waist. You can't even think about it! It's mine, everything here is mine-

The tomb door opened, and the hunchbacked master suddenly straightened his waist.

The lame housekeeper was no longer lame. He went in and out quickly, and carried the prince in with his master, and then closed the tomb door with his backhand. A torch was inserted diagonally on the wall of the tomb chamber. The cemetery was spacious but very dry, unlike the ordinary cemetery.

The two of them knew the situation and routes in the cemetery well. They didn't spend much time to successfully arrive at the center of the tomb. Then they put the prince's body into the sarcophagus. The coffin lid was not covered yet, so they placed it aside, and the master let go and took the treasure.

The housekeeper said, "Hey! Don't worry, let's settle the prince before talking." He meant to put the prince in, cover the sarcophagus before talking about anything else.

But the master seemed impatient and said, "Can you go? If you don't go, will I go?"

Seeing this, the housekeeper was anxious. He was too lazy to care about the dignity of the prince, so he clapped his hands and said, "Let's go and get the treasure." While he said, he quickly surpassed the master and walked towards the side room where gold, silver and jewelry were hidden in the south of the tomb. At that time, the master glanced at the butler's back viciously, shook a dagger from the sleeve tube, and stabbed it hard at his vest-

It was too late to wait until the butler realized that it was too late, and the dagger penetrated deep into the vest. He slowly turned around and stared at the master with hatred, as if he wanted to kill the other person with his eyes. The master trembled all over and pulled out the dagger. The butler raised his hand to grab his hand. After the master pulled out the dagger, he suddenly stopped in the air, his body softened like a leaky ball, and he fell to the ground with a thump of blood from his mouth and nose and could never get up again.

The master was afraid that the butler had not died yet, so he stabbed him a few times and said apologetically: "Butler! I'm sorry. We brothers have a fight, but the treasure here belongs to only one person, and this person is me. People die for money and birds die for food. Don't blame me, I have to do it." After saying that, the dagger cleaned the blood on the butler's clothes and turned to the sarcophagus.

The prince in the sarcophagus looked like he was sleeping soundly, with a peaceful look on his face and a faint smile on his lips. Looking at the prince's face, the master was slightly shocked, but he had no time to think about anything else. His attention was focused on the crystal clear jade pendant on the prince's waist.

He stretched out his hand and pulled off the purple dragon jade pendant effortlessly into his arms. He hurried to the wall on the south side to find the switch and wanted to open the door. Just as he was so proud that he was about to touch the switch, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart. He felt something sharp piercing in - then a severe pain spread throughout his body.

The master realized that he had been hit, but he didn't know whose trick he had been hit. He didn't believe that the housekeeper would be resurrected to assassinate him. In view of the doubts in his heart, he turned around and took a look-

When he saw this, the master was shocked! He had made great plans, but he didn't expect that he would die at the hands of the prince. In an instant, he seemed to understand everything. The prince pretended to die, and then let them kill each other and finally silence them-

The prince's face shook violently and he said with difficulty: "You can leave, only you leave first. I'll be relieved..." The master could no longer hear what the prince said later.

The prince looked at the two corpses lying on the ground and smiled with satisfaction. He took out an exquisite and small bottle of medicine from his arms tremblingly and sighed: This medicine really works, but unfortunately it cannot make me immortal! He sighed for a while, and resolutely pulled out the purple dragon jade pendant from his master's arms and hung it again on his waist. He staggered to the sarcophagus and pretended to lie down, and suddenly remembered something.

I saw him stretch out his index finger, bite it with all his strength, and write a few words on the lid of the coffin: Three feet of forbidden land, no things can enter. If you violate this order, gods and ghosts will be angry, and you will marry thirteen new things and will be resurrected in the sky.

After writing this, he was exhausted from the oil lamp and before he could finish his clothes, he fell into the sarcophagus head-on, lying on his back until his breath was gone.

The old man said this and paused for a moment - good guy, his lips were dry, so he really wanted to take a break and drink some water before talking.

The four absent-minded people, as the story progressed and trended, also thought of Jiangson's pictures. When they heard it with relish, they suddenly saw that there was no following, and they all asked anxiously: "What happened later?"

The old man sighed heavily and said, "Poor, the two servants wanted to calculate the property of their master, but their lives were taken by their master. They had to accompany their masters when they died. Their blood crossed the grooves set up inside the cemetery, forming a circle naturally and became a cordon. Anyone who crossed the boundary formed by the blood would die, both humans and other creatures."

Seeing the old man's understatement, there was a faint cool feeling that invaded everyone's heart. With an instant silence, everyone's facial expressions were undergoing subtle changes.

"We are not asking about this, we want to know what happened to the cemetery later." Zhou Neng said anxiously.

The old man frowned and said, "Oh! This story has been passed down for more than a thousand years! I heard from my grandfather that later a group of people came here, as if they were conducting surveys. There were five people in total. They should have learned from history books that there was a wealthy prince in Shicheng who died silently, as if he had disappeared from this world, and his wealth that was as rich as a country. So the five of them found this ancient tomb based on the clues they found. With his rich survey experience, the five of them found the tomb gate without any effort."

Jiang Sen listened nervously and couldn't help but interrupt the old man and said, "Is there one of them named Jiang Hanmiao?"

The old man threw a complicated expression from Johnson and shook his head and said, "I don't know very well, since they went in, they didn't see it."

"Is there any mechanism inside?" Xiaoxin said curiously.

The old man just shook his head and refused to answer. He looked helpless and sad. He originally wanted to stop these young people, but after listening to this story, they not only did not give up the idea of ​​exploring the ancient tomb, but instead became more and more interested!
