Chapter 18 - 11 Broker
Late at night, it is the perfect time to dig for treasures and gold.
Inside the Funeral Shop, Xu Qing searched the bed, counter, under the stove, inside the rice jar, almost everywhere that could potentially hide valuable items, except the two coffins tied up against the west wall which he didn't dare to touch.
"Where on earth did that old fox Liu Youdao hide the treasures for Corpse Refining and Nurturing?"
Looking at the things he had found after all that effort, Xu Qing felt frustrated again.
Only a few taels of silver, a pile of copper coins, and the property deed hidden under the bed.
Besides these, there were no other materials or items that could be used for Corpse Refining and Nurturing in the Funeral Shop.
"Could he have hidden the real treasure inside the coffins?"
Thinking of this, Xu Qing's gaze fell upon the two Dark Wood coffins standing against the west wall of the room.
One coffin, bound with red strings in a particular pattern, horizontally with three ropes and vertically with two ropes, was tied very tightly.
The other coffin was even stranger. Instead of ropes, it used "false ropes" made of Vermillion water and rooster blood dipped in Ink Box and Ink Line, totaling eighty-one lines. There were also many yellow talismans stuck on the coffin boards, making it look like a loser in a card game, with yellow slips of paper everywhere.
The only similarity was that both coffins had canopies on top, seemingly to seal something inside the coffins.
