Chapter Twenty-Three: What's in the Box

Zhao Tiancheng, who was standing on the side, also heard the words from Zhou Hexuan's mouth, others might be surprised, but Zhao Tiancheng didn't believe it at all, because he knew that his wife's father had already cut off relations with them more than ten years ago, and he didn't even have any contact anymore.

Zhao Tiancheng snatched the box from Zhou Hexuan's hand and was about to open it.

"Don't move ......"

Qiu Tiantian saw Zhao Tiancheng's actions and wanted to stop it, but it was too late.

"Ah~"

As soon as the box was opened, the movements of Zhao Tiancheng's hand stopped, and there was fear in his eyes, and after an exclamation, Zhao Tiancheng passed out directly, and the box also slipped to the ground.

Qiu Tiantian reacted quickly, and at the moment Zhao Tiancheng fell, he took out a piece of talisman paper from his handbag and instantly pasted it on his forehead.

"Zhou Hexuan, hurry up and open the box, only you can open this box, take out the contents inside."

Zhou Hexuan was also taken aback by this sudden change, but fortunately, his experience in the past few days was like riding a roller coaster, which made him careful that his liver's bearing ability was very tenacious, and when he heard Qiu Tiantian, he quickly picked up the box.

Zhou Hexuan still hesitated a little when he opened the box, there was no way, the fate of Zhao Tiancheng who wanted to open the box just now was still vivid, no matter how strong his heart was, it was impossible for him to be so decisive when he gambled with his own life.

But the hesitation was only a blink of an eye, and soon he gritted his teeth and opened the box.

Everyone held their breath, all staring at the box in Zhou Hexuan's hand, what happened to Zhao Tiancheng just now was so weird, they didn't find anything, they only saw Zhao Tiancheng open the box a crack, and then seemed to see something terrible from that crack, and then they were so frightened that they fainted directly.

But the next moment, when Zhou Hexuan opened the box, nothing really happened, and the box seemed to be an ordinary iron box, which was easily opened by Zhou Hexuan.

For those who were found by Zhao Tiancheng to dig up the grave, what happened just now was indeed a bit unexpected to them, everyone more or less retreated, for fear that something unclean would cause trouble, this money is a good thing, but even if you don't have a life, even if you earn more money, it will be useless.

Compared with the scared appearance of others, Zhou Hexuan's heart just mentioned was relaxed.

The box was opened, and the contents were all under Zhou Hexuan's eyes.

Zhou Hexuan reached out and took out a black stone sculpture that looked like a toad from the box, why did it look like a toad, because the toad carved in this stone carving only had three legs, with its mouth open and its head up, looking like it was devouring the sky and the earth.

Zhou Hexuan couldn't see what this was, and turned his head to look at Qiu Tiantian on the side.

But who knew that at this time, Qiu Tiantian was staring at the "toad" stone sculpture in Zhou Hexuan's hand with surprise or excitement on his face.

"What is this? Did my sister's soul be swallowed by this thing? ”

Qiu Tiantian's eyes didn't take away from the stone carving, and only after half a sound did he shake his head regretfully.

"This thing is actually the first time I've seen it, and I've heard those predecessors mention it before, speaking of which, this stone carving is a kind of ancient underworld beast, called Soul Eater, which was born in the Netherworld, and feeds on lonely souls and wild ghosts, and is the nemesis of all souls, because of this, they have never used the Netherworld, all the Soul Eaters outside the Netherworld have been slaughtered, and only the Netherworld, a place where people, ghosts, gods and demons are indistinguishable, have their figures.......

But these are just some legends I've heard, I don't know if it's really the case, but at least in reality, I've never encountered this kind of divine beast, your stone carving should be carved is the Soul Eater, and it's not from the hands of ordinary people, otherwise it would be impossible to carve out the talent of the Soul Eater......."

Zhou Hexuan also showed a look of disbelief in his eyes when he heard Qiu Tiantian's introduction, everything he encountered today subverted the belief he had always insisted on in his heart again and again, and he just found out that his father may not be a negative man who abandoned his wife and children as he knew, and now he found that his father is probably not an ordinary person.

"That'...... Then if you get this thing, you can save my sister......"

"Can be ...... But I can't get your sister's soul out of this thing's belly......."

"This ..... Why is that? Didn't we find something? Since my sister's human soul is in the belly of this stone carving, it is enough to take it out directly, but it really can't be done, so I smashed it......."

"No, if this soul eater is smashed, then all the souls in his stomach will be wiped out, and your sister's human soul is naturally no exception, the reason why I say that I can't do it myself is because this thing has already recognized the owner, it's like someone else's house, and I can't take out the things in the room without the key....."

Qiu Tiantian's concise explanation Zhou Hexuan finally understood, but this time he was in a hurry.

"So what do we do now? I got this thing again, but I couldn't take my sister's soul out of it, so I can't just stare at it......"

"I can't help it, it doesn't mean you can't help it, this Soul Eater Stone Sculpture looks like this, it should be said that your father specially left it for you, your sister If I guessed correctly, I don't know where I knew about it, I came alone in the middle of the night to find this Soul Eater Stone Sculpture, and the result was sucked away the soul, but your sister's situation is relatively good, after all, she just unintentionally said, your brother-in-law is unlucky, just now this Soul Eater Beast directly sucked away his three souls and seven spirits, if his soul can't return to his body within a day, then he will definitely die........”

"What?"

Zhou Hexuan hadn't yet withdrawn from his sister's matter, and suddenly heard that his brother-in-law was also dying, and it was all related to this stone carving, so he immediately became anxious.

"Then there's nothing you can do?"

"It's not like there's no way, it's up to you now, if it's really your dad who has the words left on the box, you should be able to control this Soul Eater Stone Carving."

Zhou Hexuan was also stunned when he heard Qiu Tiantian's words, his instinctive first reaction was impossible, but soon he couldn't care about it so much.

"So how am I going to control this thing?"

Qiu Tiantian didn't drag the mud and water anymore, first asked Zhao Tiancheng to be carried back to the car, and then began to teach Zhou Hexuan how to control the stone carving of the soul devouring beast.

"It's actually very simple for people who have cultivated to control things that have already recognized the master, but you haven't cultivated, so you can only use the simplest and rude method, you can now cut your index finger with a knife first."

Zhou Hexuan directly found a knife and made a small cut on his index finger, and blood came out instantly.

"Drop blood on its forehead......"

Zhou Hexuan stretched out his hand and let the blood flowing from his index finger drip down on the forehead of the soul devouring stone carving.

Qiu Tiantian stared at the Soul Eater Stone Sculpture, and saw Zhou Hexuan's study drop slowly imprinted on the forehead of the Soul Eater Stone Sculpture, and did not flow down, so he said: "Now you just open your mouth and spit out.......

"Huh?"

"Spit ....... out"

Zhou Hexuan didn't understand what Qiu Tiantian meant at first, Qiu Tiantian reminded him again, he finally reacted, opened his mouth and exhaled out one by one, a magical thing appeared at this moment, just when he took a breath out, the Soul Eater Beast Stone Sculpture actually seemed to spit out something, and every time Zhou Hexuan could see an ethereal figure being spit out of his mouth by the Soul Eater Stone Sculpture.

And the movements of Qiu Tiantian's hands on the side were not slow, and every time the soul devouring beast stone carving spit out a soul, she was taken away, and she vomited hundreds of times in a row, knowing that Zhou Hexuan was clean, and he was really going to vomit Qiu Tiantian only opened his mouth to stop.

Zhou Hexuan felt that his whole person was uncomfortable, his throat was like a fire, hot, and his tongue and lips were dry without half a bit of water.......

"I... My sister, my brother-in-law's... Soul... Did you spit it out? ”

Zhou Hexuan endured the discomfort in his mouth, and asked in a hoarse voice.

"No, it's these two ......"

Zhou Hexuan opened his mouth to ask, Qiu Tiantian directly took out two yellow five-pointed stars made of rune paper and shook them in front of Zhou Hexuan, and then took out a bottle of mineral water from the side and stuffed one of the five-pointed stars into Zhao Tiancheng's mouth, opened the cap of the mineral water and poured it directly into his mouth.......

"Ahem... Ahem......"

Just when Zhou Hexuan was a little unsure of Qiu Tiantian's actions, Zhao Tiancheng, who was still motionless with his eyes closed and didn't even breathe, suddenly coughed.......

"Alright, let's get one, let's go back and get the other......."

Qiu Tiantian saw that Zhao Tiancheng was awake, put away the five-pointed star that he had just used to collect the souls spit out by the stone carvings of those soul devouring beasts, turned around and sat down and said.

At this time, there was only their car left, and those who followed over to dig the grave had already left, if they were still here, they would definitely be shocked to see the scene of Zhao Tiancheng being rescued just now.

Zhou Hexuan didn't have time to think so much at this time, he was now in a hurry to go back to find something to save his sister, especially after seeing his brother-in-law awakened, he couldn't wait......

Zhou Hexuan's speed soared to 200 along the way, fortunately, there are no people in the suburbs here, but it is estimated that someone will go to Zhao Tiancheng the next day to talk about the successive red lights and dangerous drag racing on the road......

It only took twenty minutes to return to the city center from the cemetery in the suburbs, and as soon as the car stopped, the three of them hurriedly got out of the car, Zhao Tiancheng had already woken up halfway, and after hearing Qiu Tiantian's explanation, he knew that he had just walked on Huangquan Road, and instantly threw himself into Qiu Tiantian's grateful five-body .......
