Chapter 9: The Thirtieth Person in the Bronze Coffin

Chapter 9: The Thirtieth Person in the Bronze Coffin

Apr 16, 2023

"How could there be...an extra person!"

"Who...who are you?"

The voices asking were all trembling.

All phone screens lit up, and everyone looked around in fear, afraid that a stranger's face would appear before their eyes.

Familiar people tried to move closer together, scanning their surroundings with fear and trembling.

At this moment, the crowd finally confirmed that there was indeed one more person, leaning in the corner not far away.

"Who...who are you?"

"Are you human or ghost?"

Anything strange or demonic could happen in the mysterious bronze coffin, causing extreme unease among those present.

A rough coughing sound came from the dark corner, and the dark figure moved its body, then let out a low, hoarse voice, saying "Ghost...ghost..."

The hoarse voice echoed in the bronze coffin, and at this moment, everyone felt a chill from head to toe, their hair standing on end, as a bone-chilling coldness filled the air.

The crowd felt like they were trapped in an ice-cold cave, and many female classmates screamed and cried, almost collapsing to the ground.

"Ghost...place..." The voice was slightly weak, and it was clear that the dark figure was very tired. He shook his body, trying to stand up.

"Is this...in the bronze coffin?" The dark figure slowly stood up, expressing a bit of confusion, his voice gradually gaining strength.

Seeing the tall figure standing up, many people involuntarily stepped back.

As the figure moved towards them, he continued to speak, "It's me, Pang Bo."

"Stop, don't come any closer!" Everyone held up their phones and peered forward with the faint light.

Yefan separated from the crowd and walked forward slowly, asking, "Are you really Pang Bo?"

"Can't you even recognize my voice?" The light of the phone screen lit up in the darkness, revealing a familiar figure with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a muscular body.

Pang Bo was Yefan's best friend in college, but he couldn't make it to the gathering for some private reasons. His sudden appearance now left everyone doubtful.

"I don't believe it. Pang Bo didn't come to the gathering at all. Who are you?" Someone's voice trembled from behind.

A person who shouldn't be here was standing in the bronze coffin, which made many people feel uneasy.

"I am Pang Bo, and I need water. Who has some? I am so thirsty." The shadow continued to walk towards them.

"Stop!" The crowd still found it hard to believe.

Pang Bo had to stop and explain, recounting many stories from their college days to prove his identity.

"I believe he is Pang Bo." Yefan said firmly, and then came to Pang Bo's side with big strides. They hadn't seen each other for a while, but even in this situation, they embraced each other tightly.

"At first, due to some family matters, I was unable to attend the gathering on time. Later on, I heard that everyone was coming to Mount Tai, so I finished my business at home and rushed over..."

Taking the mineral water bottle handed over by Ye Fan, Pang Bo gulped down a few big mouthfuls and then began to explain his experience of entering the bronze coffin.

When he arrived, everyone had already gone up the mountain. He came up by cable car along the ropeway.

Fortunately, he was lucky enough to have safely arrived at the Jade Emperor Peak before the Nine Dragon Corpse and the bronze coffin collided with Mount Tai. He did not escape with the crowd downhill but held onto a large tree, waiting until Mount Tai was calm and quiet. Until the bronze coffin shook and the lid shifted, he was right behind everyone else and was pulled into the coffin.

It is unclear whether it was because he was outside of the Five-Color Altar, but when Pang Bo fell into the bronze coffin, he was immediately knocked out.

Until now, everyone gradually dispelled their doubts and the tense strings in their hearts finally relaxed.

"We must find a way to save ourselves. Being inside this bronze coffin makes people uneasy, and I have a bad feeling about it..." Li Xiaoman's face turned pale, and her beautiful eyes stared at the dark area in the depths of the bronze coffin. Compared to the other female students, she and Lin Jia remained calm.

Upon hearing this, many people felt a chill in their bodies.

"Everyone gather together, do not separate." Zhou Yi suggested.

Everyone huddled together, using the weak light from their mobile phones to examine their surroundings. They were closely attached to one side of the bronze coffin and could see a series of blurry bronze carvings, such as the ferocious Nine-Headed Divine Bird soaring high in the sky and the huge ferocious beasts with spikes that were a foot long all over their bodies roaring towards the sky...

The green rust-covered bronze carvings depicted various ancient and mythical beasts, including the ferocious nine-headed phoenix, the strange-looking Qiongqi, and the huge fierce beast with spikes all over its body called Taotie, among others. They were lifelike and awe-inspiring.

As they walked along the inner wall of the bronze coffin for a while, they also found many carvings of ancient people and deities. Then, they discovered a large section of strange patterns covering the wall densely, looking like a starry sky.

The bronze coffin was twenty meters long and more than eight meters wide, and what they saw was only a small part of it. They did not continue to observe, because at this moment, they sensed that there was something else in the deep part of the coffin.

All the phones were raised together, and they bravely took a few steps forward. They could vaguely see a rectangular object in the center of the dark area.

Obviously, it was not a corpse or a living thing, which made them slightly relieved, and they continued to move forward a few steps.

"There is a coffin inside the coffin! Another bronze coffin!" When they saw the object clearly, many of them gasped in shock.

Another bronze coffin was parked in the center of the coffin, less than four meters long and less than two meters wide. It was antique and dim, with ancient carvings, covered with green rust, and engraved with the traces of time, making people feel chilly and terrifying.

"This is not a coffin inside a coffin. This coffin is the real coffin used to hold the body. The outer bronze coffin is called a shell, and the two are called a coffin shell." Pang Bo explained to the few who did not quite understand the meaning of a coffin shell.

When they heard that the coffin in front of them was the real coffin used to hold the body, many of them quickly retreated, feeling extremely scared.

Who was buried in this mysterious bronze coffin? They were both curious and afraid.

Compared to what they had heard about archaeological secrets and imperial tombs, this bronze coffin was of far greater significance and value!

Has anyone ever seen a twenty-meter-long bronze coffin? Has anyone ever seen a mysterious giant coffin that fell from the sky? Has anyone ever seen nine dragon corpses pulling a coffin? It is doubtful whether there is only one body buried inside, and it is simply unimaginable what is inside the coffin.
