Grave robbers only rare treasures, who would steal corpses? Moreover, those four people looked shifty, only one of them was responsible for talking, the other three had their heads lowered, and even their faces were a bit hard to see.
Nova's family's people aren't stupid, and refuse on the spot; Nova's family takes dead people's stuff, but not dead people, let alone the fact that these are ancient Zombies in a tomb.
Generally speaking, Unmoulded Ancient Zombies were of high status and evil in the past, and with these four grave robbers of unknown origin, Nova's family naturally dared not agree.
But just then, the grave robbers pulled out a chest of gold, plus a lot of treasure.
Nova's family are nether - world merchants, they can tell at a glance which treasures are worth money and which are watered down, each of these things taken by the grave robbers is worth a lot of money, and that box of gold is worth even more.
Nova's family people clueless, the value of these things, directly can make Nova's family promoted to a large family, financial strength doubled a hundred times are completely no problem, at the time of Nova's family is actually not strong, is considered to be a small nether - world merchant family, right, in behavior related to the Netherworld is also not famous.
The grave robbers said that as long as Nova's family helped to keep the female body, the things brought in would all belong to Nova's family, and Nova's family would have to return it no matter when they came to take it in the future, that is to say, the female body would have to be looked after by Nova's family for generations to come.
Nova's family felt a little weird, why would grave robbers come to them to keep a female corpse, how can this matter not make sense, and the origin of this female corpse they don't know.
Nova's family had asked, but the grave robbers refused to go into detail, only saying that it was stolen from an ancient tomb, that the female corpse had a high status during her lifetime, and that it was inconvenient to disclose the rest, and that the grave robbers were even more reluctant to mention why they sought out Nova's family for safekeeping.
After a moment's hesitation, Nova's familiars still coveted the treasures and gold, and agreed.
At this time, the grave robber took out a parchment scroll, let Nova's family and he signed a contract, there are several conditions on the contract, firstly, Nova's family members to keep the female corpse in the coffin properly, not to do anything offensive, and not to move the Zombies, in the future, if someone comes to get the Zombies with this parchment scroll, Nova's family has to return it in good condition, that is, Nova's family has to keep the female corpse for generations. Nova's family will keep the female corpse for generations.
Secondly, this matter must not be divulged to any outsiders, and no one else must know about it except Nova's family.
Thirdly, the female corpse in the coffin has a jade in her arms, and that jade must never be moved!
This pact is not a simple one, made in blood, and Nova's familiars will be punished if they break it.
At that time, Nova's family had only money in their eyes, who cares about this, directly signed and drew a pledge, as a note.
Grave robbers this industry, in fact, is not good, digging graves and robbing graves of work, are going to be the end of the children and grandchildren of retribution, so at that time, Nova's family was thinking, even if the face of the future will not recognise it does not matter, in any case, it is just a few grave robbers.
After the matter was settled, the four grave robbers collected the parchment scroll and left, and strangely enough, as soon as they left, the violent storm stopped.
Nova's family people later in order to place the female corpse, but also to create a special ice room, in order to is better storage of the body, as for those treasures and gold, by Nova's family people sold a few hundred million, Nova's family's financial strength directly rose hundreds of times, to know that era a few hundred million is what concept? It was the nineties.
The stuff belongs to grave robbers, grave robbing is a capital offence, you have to get a target, so naturally the quicker you dispose of these things, the better, of course, as nether - world merchant, Nova's family has a unique way of selling stolen goods, and can do it without anyone knowing it.
Within a few days of the item being sold, Nova's family suddenly received news that four grave robbers had died in a Tang Dynasty tomb, which was later discovered by archaeologists, who naturally fished out the four grave robbers.
Unfortunately, the tomb was empty, there wasn't even a coffin, which archaeologists found strange because no grave robber would steal a coffin or a body, even if it was of high value, grave robbers would give this up because it was too hard to get it out.
That's when Nova's family people learnt that the four grave robbers had robbed the Tang Tomb, and that the coffin and the female corpse, too, were from that tomb, as well as the treasures and gold that had been given to Nova's family, only that the four grave robbers had actually died in the tomb.
Nova's family thought it was strange that the tomb had been emptied, so what were those four grave robbers doing back there?
But but when the people of Nova's family received another piece of news, the entire Nova's family was shocked and even felt afraid.
It turns out that those four grave robbers, have been dead in the crypt for a year! But didn't those four grave robbers come to Nova's family with a coffin just a few days ago?
Nova's family was afraid that the news was wrong, and they even spent money on people to go and probe, but the news was indeed true, those four grave robbers had really been dead for more than a year.
This news was like a thunderbolt, directly creeping out the people of Nova's family, even numbing their scalps.
But nether - world merchant, after all, also belongs to the behaviour related to the netherworld part, this kind of haunted things, Nova's family naturally seen a lot.
Nova's family quickly calmed down and forbade everyone to speak of the incident. Nova's family people also understood that it was evil, but what was evil was not the four grave robbers, but the female corpse.
Nova's family's people can collect dead people's stuff, so naturally they're not ignorant of anything.
What does it mean that four tomb robbers died in the tomb and archaeologists have recently discovered this Tang tomb, where the four tomb robbers took out the coffin and all the treasures in the tomb on a dark night a few days ago?
It suggests that the woman's body didn't want to be found, so she drove the grave robbers' bodies to carry her and all the burial goods before Nova's family was approached for safekeeping.
In other words, the female corpse is haunted, she is dead, but she is also "alive"!
Nova's family is not stupid, this is clearly an "evil thing", they naturally do not dare to offend, and take people's money for others to eliminate disasters, no matter whether it is a grave robber or a female corpse, Nova's family to fulfil the promise is good.
Since then, Nova's family has not only taken good care of the woman's body in the coffin, but also offered incense three times a day and bowed down every day.
And after Nova's family got rich, they didn't do nether - world merchant anymore, they opened a jewellery shop instead and started a jewellery business, and then they got rich all the way to become one of the biggest families in Vervecity.
But it was at this time that things went awry, and the head of Nova's family, Nova's grandfather, who ... fell in love with the female corpse.
The female corpse's face was so fresh and fresh that it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as a beautiful country, and even after death, that peach blossom face was enough to intoxicate a man.
For fear that something might happen to the body, or that it might go missing in the coffin, the head of Nova's family would open the coffin once every ten days or so to check it.
After a while, Grandpa Nova often saw the female corpse's face and fell in love with it.
This kind of relationship is very monstrous, Grandpa Nova himself is tortured in his heart, the living fall in love with the dead, that is not recognised and it does not make sense, but there is no way to do it, the matter of feelings, no one can control.
Then Grandpa Nova violated the conditions set out in the parchment on impulse, and he offended the female corpse.
