Chapter 8: The Mountains in the Night
Shi Yuan was very anxious, and he dug the soil as fast as he could. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info has dug more than half a meter deep and still nothing.
The sweat on Shi Yuan's forehead kept dripping, but he never saw what he wanted to see.
"Am I mistaken? Isn't that the meaning of that picture to be excavated at the location of the small house? ā
Thinking so, Shi Yuan gradually became suspicious of his speculation. He had a deep sense of powerlessness at this time, he didn't know when strange things would happen around him again, and he wanted to uncover the mystery, but there was no one to discuss, he could only guess alone, this feeling was too bad.
At this time, he deeply hoped that someone could help him. At the very least, someone would be willing to listen to him and believe him, so that he wouldn't be driven crazy by these secrets.
But the movement of his hands did not stop, he still dug hard.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and the sun finally sank below the horizon, although there was still some light outside, but the corner where Shi Yuan was was completely out of sight. He turned on the flashlight in his phone, shone on the small piece of ground, and continued digging.
Suddenly, he saw a pair of white, wizened hands come out of the hole and grab at his legs! He was so frightened that he took several steps back, and threw his shovel aside. But when he looked closely, there was nothing in the cave. He rubbed his eyes vigorously, but there was still nothing.
"I'm dazzled? Hallucinations? ā
After a long time, Shi Yuan still had palpitations. He shook his head vigorously and said to himself, nothing, don't scare yourself.
Shi Yuan settled down, picked up the shovel again, and continued to dig the soil.
When digging a meter deep, his shovel hit something hard, what appeared to be some metal object. Shi Yuan became nervous, he picked up his mobile phone and shone it into the hole.
A boxy thing appeared in his field of vision.
Shi Yuan shook the soil, and suddenly there was a shock again, in front of him was an iron box, and on the lid of the box were painted two white and thin arms, just like what he had just seen.
He couldn't figure out whether he had seen the lid of the tin box but had mistaken it, or if the picture on the lid was really strange.
Either way, the most important thing for him now was to find out the secret in the box as soon as possible, so he immediately set about opening the lid.
At this moment, Shi Yuan suddenly felt that it was dark in front of him, and he lost consciousness.
By the time Shi Yuan woke up, it was already midnight. He opened his eyes and looked, but all he saw was a starry sky.
"Am I asleep outside?"
He sat up with his arms propped up, and suddenly remembered something again, and looked around in a panic.
"Where's the box? Where did the box go? ā
When he finally found the box, Shi Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. He cautiously placed his hand on the lid, trying to open the box.
Suddenly, he sensed something was wrong. He used to dig in the corner behind the village clinic, but now there is no house in the clinic around him.
He jerked to his feet and looked ahead.
Ahead, there is a large area of farmland, further on, the road that runs through the village, and the houses in the village, and further on, the Dark Raven Ridge, which is gradually rising. From where he was, Raven Ridge looked like a huge mound.
"It's ......"
Shi Yuan was stunned, he turned around and looked back.
In front of you is an endless field of farmland, and the undulating mountains on the horizon in the distance, looking like a huge giant lying on the ground, forming a staggered curve.
Shi Yuan looked at those distant mountains, and suddenly had a feeling that it was really a giant, and he could stand up at any time, run towards him, and eat him.
Shi Yuan shuddered, lowered his head and looked at the iron box in his hand. He gritted his teeth and opened the lid of the tin box.
Inside, is a piece of paper.
By the light of the moon, Shi Yuan laboriously read the words on it.
Table of Contents
Chapter 1: The World (Page 1)
Chapter 2: Humans and Demons (p. 5)
Chapter 3: Forced Twisting (p. 10)"
"This ......"
Shi Yuan was a little surprised.
This is just a table of contents, and the text of the book has not yet been found. Even so, though, there is some information that can be gleaned from the catalog.
But now Shi Yuan does not have time to analyze it carefully. He flipped over the piece of paper, and on the back, there were four large characters "Difficult to support alone", and a slightly smaller "Huai" character below. The words are all black, or at least they look black now.
Shi Yuan put away the piece of paper and walked towards the third aunt's house with the iron box.
It's impossible not to go back......
Shi Yuan's heart was extremely heavy.
The phone wasn't on him, maybe in the corner behind the health center. Fortunately, there are no clouds in the sky now, the moonlight is very bright, and you can see the road clearly.
When Shi Yuan walked not far from the third aunt's house, he saw that the third aunt was anxiously waiting for him at the door.
"Shi Yuan? Is it Shiyuan? ā
"Well, third aunt, it's me."
"Oh my God, you're finally back. I've called you many times, and you don't answer, I'm really anxious. ā
"My phone...... Can't find ......"
Shi Yuan and the third aunt were talking, and a warm current suddenly surged in their hearts.
At least, the third aunt really cares about me, although, Shen Han has ......
Shi Yuan returned to the bedroom, and Shen Han had already fallen asleep. He slipped into bed lightly, but he didn't feel sleepy, and he began to analyze the contents of the new page he had been given today.
According to the table of contents, the book has three chapters, followed by page numbers. The beginning page of the last chapter is page 10, and the main body of the instruction manual is at least ten pages long. If it's a normal book, it's definitely too thin, but it's not a normal book. How many pages will there be in this book? Generally speaking, the following chapters will not be less than the first chapter, but this is only 'in general'. Also, what does the word on the back mean? Does it mean the person's name as it did the first two times, or does it literally mean that I can't do the task of finding the pages alone, and someone has to help me? ā
Shi Yuan kept thinking, he couldn't sleep at all. He thought of countless possibilities, but could not find the answer that convinced him. But one thing is certain: the hardships, difficulties, and dangers that he will experience next will definitely not be ten times as much as what he has experienced so far, but may be twenty, tens, or even hundreds of times.
"What if the book is so thick that you can never finish it? Am I really going to be stuck here forever? ā
Shi Yuan thought about it, and suddenly fell into deep despair.
It was pitch black in the bedroom. Shen Han, who was asleep, did not make any sound.
Not even breathing.
