Fang Zishu shook his head slightly and said confidently, ”Qi Sanpang, I wonder if you still remember one thing.”
”What is it?” Qi Sanpang was curious.
Fang Zishu's voice was low, ”We've met Old Chen many times, and this time it was him who led us into the cave. On the way here, we walked with Old Chen the whole time, and we've dealt with him the most in the past few days. Have you forgotten that there's a large mole on the corner of Old Chen's mouth?”
”The large mole at the corner of his mouth?”
Qi Sanpang was stunned, he recalled carefully, then nodded, ”That's right, Old Chen did have a mole the size of a thumb on the corner of his mouth. I remember Little Hui teasing Old Chen about his appearance, but if it was in ancient times, he would definitely be a military advisor next to the magistrate!”
Fang Zishu nodded and pointed at the sinister looking face, ”Then look at the corner of the mouth of the face in the stone wall. That place is completely bare, and there is no sign of a mole at all.”
”Could it be that the mole was blocked by the stone wall?” Qi Sanpang asked.
In theory, there is such a possibility, but look at the rocks surrounding the face of Old Chen. Each face is extremely hard, Professor Xu, you are an expert in archaeology, so you must have studied a lot of things that are sealed in rocks.
Without thinking, Professor Xu said, ”Judging by the way the stone and the face were sealed, the person in the stone must have been dead for at least ten years. If not, the stone would not be in this state.
Fang Zhushu chuckled, ”Now the problem is, half a month ago we personally sent senior Chen out of the cave, and in that short half month, even if senior Chen were to meet with mishap and be sealed in a stone, how could the 'horn rock' that Professor Xu spoke of appear on the stone? The most important thing is, don't you think that Old Chen's appearance is a bit too … ”
Qi Sanpang was stunned by what Fang Zishu had said earlier.
In his opinion, Fang Zhoushu was absolutely right. Half a month ago, they had indeed sent Old Chen out of the cave, and now, less than ten days had passed. Even if Old Chen had died in the tomb, he should not have been in this state, no, it should not have been this kind of situation.
Qi Sanpang didn't know much about the so-called 'Hornless Rock', but his many years of experience in 'hand-to-hand combat' had taught him that the stone that sealed the corpse of Old Chen was definitely not something that could be formed in a few days.
Coupled with the obvious mole at the corner of senior Chen's mouth, after confirming these two points, Qi Sanpang was certain that this person, who gave them a sense of familiarity, was not the senior Chen, whom they had parted with a few days ago.
Since this face was not that of Old Chen, then who was the person who died here?
Who had such a similar face as Old Chen?
”Let's go take a look!”
Fang Zishu patted the plump man on the shoulder, gesturing for him to continue moving forward.
However, Fatty Dun was obviously frightened by this familiar face, as if he still hadn't come back to his senses.
