"Brother Ning, what's wrong? Did you think of something?"
Seeing Ning Wangshu deep in thought, Zhu Xiyan couldn't help asking curiously.
Ning Wangshu came back to himself. Looking at Zhu Xiyan, he shook his head. "Not really. But if Little Dot really has seen this coffin—or the woman inside it—before, then I suspect Little Dot's true origins are probably not so simple."
"Still, it's hard to say for sure. Maybe Little Dot just saw a similar coffin somewhere, or someone whose appearance resembled the person lying in this one, or even a portrait. That's possible too."
Zhu Xiyan nodded slightly. "Mm, that's true."
At that, Ning Wangshu changed the subject. "All right, I won't keep you two any longer. I'll move this coffin upstairs and study it carefully to see if I can discover anything."
"If anything comes up, just come upstairs and get me..."
"Okay, big brother!" "Okay, Brother Ning!" Ning Ruoxuan and Zhu Xiyan answered in unison. They paid the coffin no more attention, since they couldn't make anything of it anyway, and instead took Laifu and Little Dot back to the sofa.
Ning Wangshu once again used Immortal Force to lift the coffin and carry it into an empty room upstairs.
After casually closing the door, Ning Wangshu thought for a moment. To be safe, he laid several Seals around the room. Only then did he carefully examine the coffin again and try probing it with his immortal sense.
But just as at the auction, his immortal sense couldn't penetrate the material of the coffin. After trying for a long time without success, Ning Wangshu had no choice but to give up.
*Looks like I can only test whether the coffin reacts to Immortal Force. If that doesn't work, I'll try attacking it directly with a spell
