Monument of Life and Death

  Chapter 643 Hand bones under the soil

   "Why... Chief Dao!"

"boom!"

   "Ah my waist... You are the leader..."

   "Nine days," the Taoist master groped, and reluctantly got up, "Are you okay?"

   "I...I'm okay," Luo Jiutian stood up on the mud in the same place, "Dao Master, why are you jumping down?"

   "Someone pushed me down."

   "What?!" Luo Jiutian was shocked, "Are they the dead? Those villagers? They started attacking us?"

   "No, it shouldn't be..." Dao Chang listened carefully for a while, "At least not the kind of people we saw during the day. Besides them, there are other people in Lianshui Village."

  The two stood side by side in a narrow well, which was full of sticky and damp mud. Their feet were stuck in the mud, and their bodies were slimy.

   Luo Jiutian waved his hand to call out Panlong Pond, "Go up first and talk about it."

   "Wait," the chief Taoist held Luo Jiutian's Panlong Pond, "Jiutian, you put the Panlong Pond away first."

"Why?"

  "In non-essential circumstances, try not to allow Panlongchi to live," Dao Chang lowered his throat, "After all, it is very important."

  Luo Jiutian understood what he meant, and quickly took back Panlong Pond.

  After all, Zhang Boyin's body can be in it.

   "Then how are we going to go up?"

   "There are many ways," Dao Chang's hands slapped on the wall of the well, "Before that, let's check here first. Did you see the candlelight just now?"

   "No, there is no light here," Luo Jiutian wiped off the mud on his hands, "I suspect it was just an illusion."

Dao Master didn't think so, he reached out and touched a few in his arms, grabbed a charm that was folded into a five-pointed star, crushed it, and the charm instantly turned into a small group of shining light.

  The faint golden light illuminates the two people in the well. Dao Chief and Luo Jiutian looked at each other's dirty faces, and at the same time showed the expression of "Who are you", and then laughed together.

   "Master...Haha, did your face go into a mud pit?"

   "...Nine days, there are my shoe prints on your face."

  Luo Jiutian wiped his face immediately, "I said my face hurts."

   "Let’s find it quickly," the Taoist chief turned his body and took a photo on the wall of the well. "This thing won’t stay on for long."

  There are disgusting mosses growing deep in the well wall. The turquoise plants and turquoise mud are mingled on the stone wall. It feels like jelly, but it smells more like jelly that has expired for a few years.

   "My God..." Luo Jiutian stood a little further away from the well wall, "If I saw these things just now, I would definitely not grab them directly."

  Dao Chang held a light source to observe carefully on the wall of the well. The moss, mud, and stone walls were disgusting, but it was normal.

  The smell of humus floating in the air is nothing special.

   "Did you find anything?" Luo Jiutian asked, bowing his waist.

Dao Chang shook his head, "There is nothing on the wall of the well... Nine days, have you seen the well?"

   "Down the well?" Luo Jiutian raised his foot, "It's all mud."

   "Is there only mud?" The Taoist chief bent down strenuously and dug up the mud pile under the feet of the two with his bare hands.

  Luo Jiutian was shocked and a little embarrassed. He mobilized himself for a few seconds and then dug up the mud, "No, you fell off before I reached the bottom."

  The two dug the mud earnestly. Luo Jiutian has been brainwashing himself, telling himself that this is the same thing as digging holes in the yard when he was a child, and he digs more and more vigorously.

  Until his finger touched something unexpected.

  Almost at the same time, the Taoist also said, "There is something."

   "I have something here too."

  The two looked at each other, and the Taoist leader said, "Then dig down."

  Luo Jiutian simply squatted down, dug along the place where the foreign body appeared with both hands, and within a few seconds, a grayish white that was completely different from the mud appeared.

  The same thing appeared on the head of the road.

  Luo Jiutian heard the sound of his heartbeat, he stared at the gray spot, and continued to dig the soil.

  A few minutes later, he straightened up pale and looked at the dignified Taoist master.

  Under the damp soil, two ossified human hands appeared.

  The length of the road is still digging, and down this hand, the radius and ulna gradually appear.

  He still wants to dig, but he seems to have encountered some difficulties.

  "Daoist?"

   "There is something," Daochang put his hand in the soil, moving hard beside the bone, "It's...like a stone."

   is the stone.

  The road took a long stretch, the things in his hands moved, the soil opened, and a stone slightly larger than a human head arched out of the ground.

"Stone?"

   "There is more than one piece," the Taoist chief looked down, "It seems like...there are all rocks below."

  Countless stones squeezed the bones buried under the soil, and even some of the bones were squeezed to the point of deformation. The moment the stones were removed, the skeleton swayed and scattered and turned into a pile of residual bones.

  ***

   "Ask the spirit, can you see anything?"

  Qin Yin and Wen Ling clinging to each other, walking slowly on the steps leading to the underground, the white light of the flashlights can only illuminate a small area, except for the black stone steps under the feet of the two, it seems that nothing can be seen.

  Wen Ling turned his head to look at Qin Yin, "You."

   "I said something else," Qin Yin said softly, "Would you like to see me?"

  Wen Ling narrowed his eyes and looked around.

  The reflection in the gray pupils is nothing but pitch black.

"no."

   "Let's go," Qin Yin sighed, "Maybe Xiaolan is waiting for us down there."

  As soon as the voice fell, the two of them took a step forward and found that the steps had finally come to an end.

  There is no Xiaolan.

  There is only an open area of ​​unknown size.

   "Is there anything around?" Qin Yin didn't dare to act rashly, "Is there any... anyone?"

  No one answered.

  There is not even an echo.

  The two took two steps carefully, and when they turned around, they found that the steps just now had disappeared.

  Because this was really expected, the two of them did not express surprise, and started to pioneer work at an unconfident pace.

  It didn't take long for the two to see it.

  A rectangular parallelepiped about one person's height stands upright in front of the two of them.

   "What is this?" Qin Yin walked around the cube, "Like a box."

  Wen Ling stretched out his finger and quickly poked the surface of the lower box.

"Stone."

  "Is it a big rock?" Qin Yin also poked, "Is it some kind of symbol? Totem? Image worship?"

  Wen Ling shook his head.

   Then, as if answering her question, the stone slid away to the right on the side facing them, exposing the space inside the stone box.

   is hollow.

  Sure enough, it was a stone box.

  The two looked at each other.

  Qin Yin touched the inside of the stone box, "Are you going to let us in?"
