Chapter 2074: Open or Not?
Gong Xinyu's suggestion moved Lin Chen's heart.
Until now, all the information Lin Chen had learned was from other people's mouths, and he had never personally obtained any useful information.
If he could find the truth of the ultimate secret in this strange place, even just a part of it, it would make him more confident in his future actions.
After thinking for a long time, Lin Chen finally agreed to Gong Xinyu's proposal.
"The words of Lord Miyagi made me enlightened. Let's investigate now! Now that we are here, we should indeed gain something!"
So, the two of them carefully came to the ice coffin that was as huge as a hill...
Lin Chen pulled out the Yichen Sword.
A sudden burst of cold light made Gong Xinyu feel the edge of this peerless sword.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Chen and the two found a small and imperceptible mark on the upper left corner of the ice coffin.
Although this mark was very shallow, it still reminded Lin Chen of Xu Wentian's technique.
Xu Wentian once said that it was here that he started cutting the ice coffin, then cut the ice coffin into square ice blocks and moved them out piece by piece.
Nearly a hundred years later, although the gaps between the ice blocks have closed again and become a whole again, the slightly uneven marks still indicate that this is where Xu Wentian started!
Next, Lin Chen followed suit and began to cut the ice coffin with the extremely sharp Yichen sword.
After working for a while, the huge ice coffin was already filled with square and neat ice cubes.
At this time, when Lin Chen had cut a piece of ice and was about to carry it out, Gong Xinyu suddenly took his hand, and... there was a look of extreme horror in his eyes?
"What's wrong?" Lin Chen was shocked and quickly turned around.
Only then did he realize that... after their previous efforts, the two of them had arrived at the very center of the ice coffin!
Moreover, the small ice coffin that Xu Wentian mentioned was also reflected in the pupils of the two people!
The reason why Gong Xinyu showed that frightened and uncertain look was because he saw in the small ice coffin...a figure rising and falling making regular movements!
Although Gong Xinyu was very powerful and was used to big scenes, she was still frightened by the moving figure in the depths of the ice coffin where the light was not very good.
At the same time, Lin Chen also swallowed and felt a chill on his back.
If Xu Wentian didn't deceive himself, then this figure who is still moving should be his close friend? That senior from the Lin family?
With such doubts, Lin Chen was also stunned on the spot, not knowing what to do.
After a moment, Gong Xinyu recovered from the shock, then pointed at the figure and whispered:
"Sir, I personally...I feel so scared! I'm a little scared!"
Lin Chen mustered up his courage and smiled calmly:
"Don't be afraid. That figure should be the body of Xu Wentian's best friend, a man who has been dead for almost a hundred years, so you don't have to worry.
In addition, the reason why this body moves is because there is some strange grass under his body. According to Xu Wentian, those grasses are magical and can penetrate into the corpse. He doesn't know the specific principle, but anyway, it can make the corpse swing accordingly.
Oh, by the way, this small ice coffin is facing the only vent here. Whether it is the morning light or the midnight moonlight, it will shine on this small ice coffin through that vent.
Therefore, this small ice coffin should be located in an excellent geomantic treasure land, absorbing the essence of the sun and moon between heaven and earth day and night. It can swing up and down slightly, which should have been a prominent feature of Xu Fu's design of the ice coffin. "
After hearing Lin Chen's explanation, Gong Xinyu's mood relaxed a lot.
She let go of Lin Chen's hand, then pointed at the figure in the ice coffin and said in a low voice:
"Sir, now that we have found this place, what should we do next? Should we open the small ice coffin and take a look at the body inside?"
After hearing this, Lin Chen also hesitated.
After combining all the known information, he was a little confused...
From Mr. Qin, he learned that the ultimate secret was actually the secret to making the most powerful biological and chemical weapons;
From Lin Qing, he knew that the ultimate secret was still a secret that allowed Xu Fu to be resurrected in some special form;
The appearance of Xu Fu last night made Lin Qing conclude that the Xu family has unlocked the ultimate secret!
However, Xu Wentian once vowed that... if the ultimate secret is to take effect, the body must be placed in this ice coffin!
Moreover, judging from what Lin Chen and the two saw so far, the ice coffin indeed contained the body of his best friend.
Then, here comes the biggest problem...
Among these people, who is lying? In other words, some of these people were deceived by intentional people, so they came to a wrong judgment?
But no matter what, there is only one truth!
After figuring everything out, Lin Chen told Gong Xinyu his doubts and then made a suggestion.
"No matter what the truth of the ultimate secret is, there are only two ways we can do it!
The first one...we assume that the ultimate secret is a method of making biological and chemical weapons. So, will destroying this body make all the wishful thinking of the Xu family or others come to nothing?
As for the second one...if we assume that the ultimate secret is the method left by Xu Fu to resurrect himself, then the body in this ice coffin has no value in existence. Because the "carrier" he wants to resurrect appeared in front of me last night!
In this case, whether we destroy this body or not, it will not have any effect on the conspiracy of the Xu family.
So, in summary, as long as we open this small ice coffin and see the state of the body inside, it will be harmless to us... .
Lord Gong, do you think I am right? "
Gong Xinyu thought about it calmly, and finally nodded and said:
"What you said is very true. No matter which possibility it is, opening this ice coffin can get some truth about the ultimate secret. And whether this body is important or not, it is harmless to us...
Then, sir, go and open this small ice coffin! Of course, you have to be very careful. I always feel that... this small ice coffin is a bit strange. "Lin Chen nodded, and then quietly observed for a while, then he picked up the Yichen Sword and prepared to cut the small ice coffin open to see the figure inside and what it was...
