"Xiao Bai, do you think there is anything else at the bottom of this pond?"
Looking at the green water pool, Xiao Bai thought about it for a moment, and then asked Fat Hu beside him: "Do you have a knife?"
Although he didn't know what Xiao Bai meant, Fat Hu nodded, took out a knife, and handed it to Xiao Bai.
Xiao Bai took the knife, gritted his teeth, and cut his finger.
Watching a few drops of blood pour out, they dropped into the water after a few breaths.
"Okay, let's go up and open the coffin first, and then come down. I also want to see what is lying inside this bronze coffin."
Although Si Chen and others were puzzled as to why Xiao Bai would do this, they saw that their sister didn't say anything, so they didn't ask any more questions.
Everyone came to the bronze coffin, and Xiao Bai carefully looked at the lid of the bronze coffin.
After a moment, Xiao Bai and Si Si looked at each other again.
This bronze coffin is exactly the same as what was seen before in another empty mountain.
It seems that these two mountains must have been produced during the same period and under the same dynasty.
After carefully checking that there was no mechanism, Sisi said to a few people: "Eldest brother, second brother, third brother, Fat Tiger, come on, let's open the coffin!"
With the combined efforts of several people, the lid of the bronze coffin was slowly pushed open.
After a while.
A blue skeleton wearing bronze armor and a bronze mask appeared in Xiao Bai's eyes.
"Holy shit, these bones are blue?"
Listening to Fat Hu's exclamation, Xiao Bai didn't feel anything in his heart.
He had already seen this situation once, and even almost ended up like this himself.
Looking at this blue skeleton, Xiao Bai pondered for a moment and then said: "It looks like he should be a general."
"But this person is probably not of such a high level that he needs to be sacrificed as a human being, so I am more inclined to believe that this person is a sacrifice just like us."
"And this empty mountain should be similar to a burial pit."
"It's just that I really can't imagine what kind of existence would have the financial resources to hollow out a mountain just to use it as a burial pit."
It was obvious that few of them had little interest in the cultural relics inside the bronze coffin.
Just when Xiao Baicai was about to close the coffin, Si Si suddenly spoke again.
"Wait a moment."
As she spoke, she reached out to the mask inside the coffin.
After a while.
"Wuchen."
Looking at the inside of the bronze mask, Si Si gently spit out two words. Obviously, these two words should be engraved on the inside of the bronze mask.
Wuchen? One represents the coming of night, and the other represents the opening of dawn.
Putting the mask back on the blue skull, Si Si called on Fat Hu and others to push up the coffin lid.
After finishing all this and walking down the stairs again, Xiao Bai saw that the originally pool of clear water below had become clear.
Likewise, hundreds of stone pillars stand in the water, leading to the stone platform in the center of the pool.
"Trouble."
Seeing this scene, Si Si frowned tightly.
Because they would not be able to open the stone platform in the center of the pool through this stone pillar until night.
But if she waited until night, she was still afraid that something would happen again.
"What should I do? Do you want the things here?"
Seeing Si Si asking himself, Xiao Bai was also a little confused.
To be honest, he had an idea for this.
"Si Si, without the help of Starlight, can you deduce the road to the center of the pool based on the two words Wuchen?"
According to Wuchen?
Hearing Xiao Bai's words, Si Si's eyes suddenly lit up.
If I remember correctly, when I was on that empty mountain before, the starlight also corresponded to the time and position.
"If you are not afraid of death, I can try."
Seeing the two people talking to each other about going to the center of the pond, everyone gathered around the pond.
Seeing the dense black insect poison swimming in the pond, Si Chen and Fat Hu couldn't help but shudder.
"Well, little brother, have you really thought about it?"
"These black ones must be some kind of insects..."
Seeing Si Si also give him a questioning look, Xiao Bai nodded.
"Sisi, please point me to the location."
Hearing this, Si Si nodded. After closing his eyes and concentrating for a moment, his jade finger pointed at a stone pillar not far away.
Looking at the stone pillar, Xiao Bai remembered what he had been thinking when he was driving away the Gu insects on that empty mountain.
After a while, the Gu insects near the stone pillar that Si Si pointed to swarmed aside, leaving an open space of half a square meter for Xiao Bai.
Stepping on the stone pillar, Xiao Bai felt that the stone pillar sank slightly by a few centimeters. Xiao Bai turned to look at Si Si.
"The front right one."
"..."
Ten minutes later, under Si Si's guidance, Xiao Bai came to the stone platform.
But I don’t know if it’s because I’m always in high tension or if it’s because controlling these Gu insects with my mind consumes too much energy.
When he came to Shitai, Xiao Bai felt that he almost collapsed here.
Watching the stone platform open, revealing a bronze box that was exactly the same as the one he had obtained. Xiao Bai picked it up with difficulty, took off his shirt and wrapped it up, and then looked at Si Si and the others on the shore again. .
"How to get back? I can't remember?"
After hearing Xiao Bai's words, Si Si began to give instructions again.
After a while, when he returned to the shore, Xiao Bai sat down on the ground.
Seeing that Xiao Bai seemed to be suffering from a serious illness and his face was very ugly, Fat Hu took out a bottle of water from his backpack and handed it to Xiao Bai.
After resting for a while, Xiao Bai felt better.
Seeing Xiao Bai get up again, Si Chen said: "Let's go out first. It will take some time to get out of the forest. If it gets dark by then, this mountain road will be difficult to walk."
Hearing this, Xiao Bai only thought of this. He looked at Si Si with a wry smile.
"Well, I suddenly remembered, I'm afraid we can't do it if we don't call the police."
"If nothing else happens, the rented car is still in Nakui Village. Seeing that we haven't responded for so long, the car rental company will probably look for a car based on its location."
"So let's think about how to explain these things to the police."
After hearing Xiao Bai's words, Si Si agreed.
On the way back to the mountain, the two of them had been discussing various problems that might need to be dealt with.
In the evening, before it got completely dark, the six of them finally walked out of the forest.
After reluctantly squeezing into a car, the group went directly to the police station to report the crime.
After a while, when Xiao Bai and Si Si stepped out of the car, everyone who saw them on the street looked in disbelief.
Walking into the police station, the little girl in charge of reception in the front hall couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw this scene.
"Um, you two, have you encountered any kind of persecution?"
"The blue color on your body..."
"emm..."
Hearing this, Xiao Bai covered his face helplessly, then sighed deeply and began to tell the story they had made up.
