Chapter 275 It’s not good looking, but it’s weirdly ugly

Just as Bai Ningyu passed by a stall full of Tao Yong's ornaments, she found that the box left to her by her parents suddenly opened by itself, and the white paper inside actually flickered with light.

At the same time, Bai Ningyu felt that there was something in the gray, extremely ugly pottery figurine placed in the corner of the stall that seemed to be sensing her.

This made her stop in her tracks.

Seeing Bai Ningyu staring at the ugly pottery figurine, the stall owner immediately approached with a smile and asked, "Miss, are you interested in this ornament?"

Bai Ningyu didn't show any expression, but simply asked calmly: "What's the price?"

The stall owner's eyes rolled around. He himself thought this thing was ugly, but he didn't expect that there were people who liked ugly things. He would have to cheat her, oh no, make a fortune from her!

Thinking about this, the stall owner was about to start fooling Bai Ningyu.

However, a voice came from behind: "Don't call this a Warring States pottery. It's a modern, well, to put it nicely, a handicraft."

The fat man walked towards the station with a big horse and interrupted the stall owner.

Seeing that he had met someone knowledgeable, the stall owner chuckled and immediately changed the subject: "Of course not, this thing is a modern craft, so it's not expensive. I don't want much, just a medium-grade spirit stone!"

When the fat man heard what the stall owner said, he almost laughed out loud in anger: "Tell me, how can this ugly thing be worth a mid-grade spirit stone?"

Then he said to Bai Ningyu, "Miss Bai, if you like this kind of thing, I have plenty in my Panjiayuan shop. You can pick any one you want and consider it a gift from me."

The stall owner got furious when he heard this. He had finally found a customer who took a liking to this thing, so how could he let the customer go just like that?

So he quickly changed his words: "Then a low-grade spirit stone will do. It can't be any lower. It's a small deal."

Just as the fat man was about to speak, he saw Bai Ningyu readily took out a low-grade spirit stone and handed it to the stall owner.

Seeing this, the stall owner immediately accepted it with a smile. Fearing that Bai Ningyu would change her mind, he quickly wrapped up the terracotta figurine and stuffed it into Bai Ningyu's arms.

The fat man was shocked when he saw this. He looked at Bai Ningyu in confusion and asked, "No, Miss Bai, what do you like about this thing? It's not good-looking at all. It's so ugly."

Bai Ningyu understood that the other party probably recognized her identity, so she corrected him, "Cheng Shuang, this is my name."

"Ah, I understand, I understand, Miss Cheng." The fat man immediately understood and changed his tone.

Bai Ningyu then received the terracotta figurine into the space and said, "It's not good-looking, but it's bizarrely ugly."

The fat man and his companions were speechless after hearing this.

"What a pity, such a beautiful girl likes an ugly guy." The fat man murmured.

The middle-aged man smiled and invited, "Miss Cheng, are you alone? If you don't mind, we can go shopping together."

Bai Ningyu agreed indifferently. She didn't plan to do anything anyway, she just came here to hang out.

Several people looked at all the stalls downstairs, and only the man in the pink shirt bought some items.

Then they came to the second floor.

At this time, most of the people on the second floor had left.

They came to the mummy that was the hottest.

Although it is said to be on display, people cannot actually see what the mummy looks like. Her body is placed in a mummy coffin, which is what we usually call a coffin.

The mummy coffin is different from the coffins we usually see. It looks like a human-shaped coffin.

But the appearance of the deceased is depicted on the human-shaped coffin.

Not only that, there are also various ancient totems and patterns on the coffin.

On top of the wooden coffin is a row of cobras with half of their bodies straightened up, appearing to be in an attacking state.

The pattern on the lower left is a pyramid-shaped tomb chamber, the door of which is tightly locked with an iron chain.

From the patterns on the mummy's coffin, it can be seen that the tomb chamber is close to the mountain or is directly dug out of the mountain.

The pattern carved on the right is a cow-like creature, and behind the cow is an eagle soaring in the sky.

At the bottom of the wooden coffin was a pitch-black creature lying on the ground.

The fat man looked at the mummy coffin, pointed at the wavy lines and black spots on it, and asked doubtfully, "Everything else is pretty clear, but what is this thing?"

The middle-aged man stared at the pattern on the coffin and explained, "That probably represents the desert. As for the cow, it's the human incarnation of Hathor, the goddess who protects the immortality of the dead."

Then he pointed to the pitch-black creature at the bottom and said, "This must be the god Anubis. He is protecting the remains of the dead.

This kind of depiction is very common in Egypt and there is nothing unusual about it.”

The fat man nodded thoughtfully: "So we can only see the outer packaging, but not the core inside!"

The man in the pink shirt narrowed his eyes and said, "The mummies inside should only be displayed at the auction."

Bai Ningyu stared at the mummy coffin in front of her with a slightly solemn expression.

This thing gave her a very strange feeling. This wooden coffin might not be as simple as the middle-aged man said.

The wavy patterns and black spots on the coffin should be some kind of seal.

But if the object inside is to be sealed, shouldn’t the coffin be carved to suppress the soul or the ghosts of the corpse?

Why are the protective goddess Hathor and the god Anubis engraved?

Isn't it a contradiction to seal her and protect her at the same time?

Bai Ningyu couldn't quite figure this out, and what was even stranger was that she couldn't even see through what was inside.

This mummy coffin must be a special magical instrument that blocks all spiritual power detection.

However, at this moment, a group of Sky Island guards suddenly appeared and surrounded them.
