Chapter 287: The Strange Box
I followed what Mr. Zhou said, lightly cut my middle finger, squeezed out a little blood from my heart and smeared it on the box. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info The box was like a blood-drinking monster, and the blood smeared on it disappeared in an instant.
"Do you feel any connection to this box?" Old Man Zhou asked.
I shook my head and said, "I don't feel anything, is it because I have too little blood, should I bleed more?"
Old Man Zhou thought for a while and said, "Don't want it yet, you take out the red flower you said and put it next to the box to see how this box will react, I suspect there is a connection between them." ”
As Old Man Zhou said, I took out the big red flower from the treasure box and placed it next to the box along with the rock under it.
Old Man Zhou looked at the red flower and said with a little puzzlement: "This is a mutated anchovy, how can it bloom so red and gorgeous?"
I didn't know much about it, so I speculated, "This flower drinks blood, so could red be the color of blood?"
Old Man Zhou thought for a while and said, "There is such a possibility, you can put the flowers away first." ”
As soon as I put the rock down, the anchovy poked its head like a baby about to fall into its mother's arms, trying to get closer to the box. At this moment, a small gap suddenly appeared in the top of the box.
I leaned the anchovy against the box, so that the anchovy's head was close to the wooden box. At the sound of a 'bang', the crack in the wooden box suddenly opened, and five round beads the size of a dragon's eye jumped out of it, and as soon as the beads appeared, the whole room was dazzling.
I reached out and scooped up a bead and examined it carefully, only to see the shadow of a cute little fox faintly revealing the bead, and he was wagging his tail lightly in it. I put the beads to my ear and listened carefully, and I could faintly hear the little fox squeaking.
I pointed to the fox in the bead and said to Old Man Zhou, "Grandpa Zhou, this fox seems to be alive." ”
"Alive?" Old Man Zhou didn't believe my words, he took the beads and observed them carefully.
The little fox inside kept adjusting the direction of his body with the rotation of Old Man Zhou's eyes, and his hands and feet were also regularly gesturing, as if to express something to us.
Old Man Zhou stared at the fox in the beads and thought quietly for a while, and then took out the rest of the beads, the animals in each bead are different, the five beads are tiger, leopard, bear, lion and the little fox I just took out.
I circled the beads around the rock, and the anchovies on the rocks leaned out and lowered their heads and gently stroked each bead with the flowers.
The little animals in the beads smiled happily inside.
Seeing this scene, I was a little surprised and asked Mr. Zhou: "How can this be?"
Old Man Zhou was also very confused and said, "It's the first time I've seen this situation. ”
"Shall we let the animals out there and ask?" I picked up the little fox beads and asked Mr. Zhou.
Old Man Zhou thought for a while and said, "Don't release them for the time being, this thing looks a little weird, let's figure out the situation first." ”
After speaking, Old Man Zhou opened the box again and flipped through it carefully, and found that there was nothing in it. Then he tapped lightly along the wall of the box. There was a 'poof' and 'poof' sound from the bottom of the box
Old Man Zhou listened carefully and heard: "The bottom of this box seems to be empty. ”
I also reached in and tapped it tentatively. I feel that the sound in the middle of the box is not loud, and the sound of 'poof' and 'poof' around is very loud.
I was a little skeptical and said, "There seems to be a mezzanine in here." ”
"If there is a mezzanine, there will be a mechanism, you get up and I'll look for it. After speaking, Old Man Zhou pushed me aside and touched it carefully in the box.
Old man Zhou touched it and pressed it down, and after a while, Old Man Zhou didn't know where to press his hand, and the cover cloth at the bottom of the box made a tearing sound, and he saw several golden needles shoot out of the mezzanine.
Old Man Zhou pulled me back in a flash, and with a wave of his big hand, he received all those golden needles into his sleeve.
I hid behind Mr. Zhou and waited for a long time to see that there was no more movement in the box, so I cautiously poked my head out, but I didn't expect that Mr. Zhou had already taken out the contents of the box. He held a white silk-like canvas in his hand and looked at the words on it with a solemn expression.
I leaned over and glanced at it, and the text was curled like little tadpoles.
Seeing that Old Man Zhou looked at it with relish, I couldn't help asking, "What is Grandpa Zhou's content written on it?"
"That's ------," Old Man Zhou said at the beginning, and paused deliberately.
I asked urgently, "What's on it?" Grandpa Zhou, you quickly said it all, don't bring such a playful person." ”
Old Man Zhou was not in a hurry to tell me what was written on it, but hung up his bookbag and explained to me the origin of these words: "The text on this is a kind of writing of the ancient gods, I accidentally learned it when I traveled from all walks of life, and if I didn't have that experience, I wouldn't be able to understand this kind of text." ”
I was a little unhappy and said to Mr. Zhou: "I know that you are well-informed and knowledgeable, but now I just want to know what is written on it." ”
Old Man Zhou shook the white silk in his hand, and said with a smile: "This is about the origin of these animals, as for the flower, it is also one of them, by chance it ran out, and the other five animals are still sealed in these beads." ”
I don't believe Old Man Zhou's words, looking at the solemn look on his face when he looked at Bai Juan just now, no matter how he thinks things, things can't be so simple.
I asked with a skeptical face, "It's that simple?"
Old Man Zhou didn't want to say more to me, so he said vaguely and perfunctorily: "Of course, there are other things written on it, but it has nothing to do with you, so don't ask more." ”
I knew at a glance that there was something greasy in this, so I stretched out my hand to Old Man Zhou and said, "It's okay if you don't let me ask, can you show me the white silk?"
Old Man Zhou thought that I didn't know the text on it, and it was in vain to show it to me, so he handed me the white silk and said, "Here you go, you don't understand what's the use of going." ”
I was unconvinced and said, "If I don't understand it, I can read it, maybe I can get a rough idea." ”
I carefully took the white silk and looked at it carefully.
The texture of the white silk is delicate, I feel like nothing in my hand, I pulled it with my hand, the white silk did not have the slightest damage, I rubbed the white silk again, and then opened it, and there was no trace of wrinkles left on the white silk.
