Chapter 81: A blank slate

After Hu San finished eating, he picked up a flashlight and shone it along the riverbank, I don't know what the hell he was doing, and I followed behind and watched his actions boredly.

Hu San lowered his head and returned to the position where the shark jumped out before, and then took a photo along the road where we came, he touched his head, and his eyes couldn't stop rolling.

"What are you looking at?" I couldn't help but ask.

"What you just said makes sense, this road is often walked, so there must be a way to cross the river, seeing that the current is so fast, it is unlikely to take a boat."

"Is it wrong for us to think about it?" I suddenly thought of a bold assumption, "Didn't you say that the people who can live here must not be simple, so is it possible that the people who live here are not people at all, what kind of demons and monsters, they should be easy to cross the river, right?" ”

Hu San couldn't help but laugh when he heard what I said, "You also said that, but I think that in this world, the most terrifying thing is people, no matter how powerful those demons and monsters are, they are just a small fight, such as ghosts, often hiding somewhere to scare people, I have heard ghosts ask for their lives, but after all, they are a minority, and there are some monsters who will only secretly hide in caves to cultivate, and occasionally come out to harm people, like the big project in the village above, I guess they can't do it." Besides, there are clearly electric lights in the village in front of you, have you ever heard a ghost blowing a lamp, but have you ever heard a ghost lighting a lamp? Hu Sanyi spoke in the vernacular, and suddenly his eyes were fixed on a piece of grass in the distance and did not move.

I followed his gaze, and a corner of a stone was exposed in the dead grass in the distance, and it was nothing special, I don't know why Hu San looked at it with that kind of look.

Hu San raised the flashlight and walked over, staring carefully at his feet as he walked.

When I got closer, I saw that it was an irregularly shaped stone, about half a meter thick, and the size of a millstone, but I still didn't find anything special.

I looked at Hu San with puzzled eyes.

"Don't you think there's something wrong with this stone here?"

"What's wrong?" I scratched my head, not knowing why.

"If you look around, you can still find such a large piece." Hu San said, using a flashlight to sweep around the stone.

Looking around, it was true, there were dead grass and stones as far as the eye could see, but the largest was only the size of a fist. Looking back at this stone like a millstone, I suddenly felt that it was particularly abrupt here.

"You're saying this stone shouldn't be here?" I asked.

Hu San nodded, then smiled, "I'll leave it to you next." ”

I immediately understood what he meant, he wanted me to move the stone away. I looked at the grinding disc-like stone in front of me, and estimated that its weight would not be less than two or three thousand catties, for ordinary people, it was absolutely impossible for no twenty or so people to move it away, but for me, it was not too much of an exaggeration to say that it was easy.

I took a deep breath, clenched my fists, and suddenly the muscles in my body tensed, and the feeling of true qi flowing in my body came again, that feeling was amazing, it may be a bit too much to say that I was fluttering, but it was indeed very refreshing.

I stretched out my palm and grabbed the corner of the edge of the stone that was raised outward, but before I could exert myself, Hu San suddenly said, "Wait! ”

I looked at him in a daze, not knowing what was wrong.

Hu San looked serious, even a little nervous, and said softly: "That, be careful, there may be something dangerous down here." ”

Hearing him say that, I immediately became nervous. Frankly speaking, I am indeed careless sometimes, and if Hu San didn't remind me, I really didn't think that there might be danger underneath. Now that I think about it, there is indeed a little possibility, firstly, this stone is placed here, which is not very harmonious with the surrounding environment, and secondly, since I have encountered so many strange and inexplicable things since entering Yazha Village, I should be careful everywhere.

I nodded at Hu San, ready to deal with the unexpected.

I grabbed the corner of the stone and turned it to the side, only to hear a harsh grinding sound before I pushed the stone more than a meter away.

At the same time, I stared at the space behind the stone, afraid that something would jump out of me, but when the stone was moved to the side, nothing happened.

I looked at it and saw that the original location of the stone was all dead grass that had been flattened by the village, and there was nothing unusual about it.

At this time, Hu San walked over with a flashlight, and observed carefully, probably because of the lesson last time, he did not step there, but stretched out the wooden sword from afar and played a few times.

That's when I realized that the grass didn't grow on the ground, but was sprinkled on it. As Hu San continued to remove the withered grass, a miserable white human face was revealed below, and we suddenly gasped, Hu San focused the flashlight on that face, and after a closer look, it turned out to be a relief.

"Damn, it scared the hell out of me." Hu San cursed in his mouth and pushed away all the dead grass on it, it turned out that the grass was covered with an iron plate, embedded in the ground I don't know how deep. In the middle of the iron plate is carved a human face, a woman, whose facial features are quite delicate and lifelike. I don't know what kind of paint was used to dye my face white, as white as white paper. In stark contrast to her complexion, her lips were so bright red, as if they were dyed with blood. Her eyes are relatively normal, at first glance they look similar to real people, but because the portrayal is too realistic, it looks very strange when matched with her face and lips, and it feels very evil.

There are words or symbols all around that face, but I can't read it anyway.

Hu San stared at it for a long time with a frown, and said slowly: "How do I feel that something is shaking here!" ”

"Huh?" When he said this, I was startled, "Is there a monster down there?" ”

"I can't say either, I just feel that the symbols on this are a bit like some kind of runes, runes and charms, they are all used to deal with evil things."

Hearing this, I became a little nervous and asked, "Do you want to open it and see it?" ”

"What do you say?"

Unexpectedly, Hu San asked me back, to be honest, I am very curious, if there is a box in front of me, even if others tell me that it is a bomb, I will find a way to open it, otherwise I will feel very uncomfortable.

But at this time, I hesitated, because this is not only about my own safety, but also about Hu San, in case he is affected by me, what are the three strengths and weaknesses, how can I be worthy of others.

But at this moment, a thought suddenly flashed in my mind, is it possible that there is a secret passage to the other side here?

Hu San seemed to see people's concerns, and said without waiting for me to answer: "Now that we have reached this point, we have no other choice, there may indeed be something here, but at the same time, it may also be a passage to cross the river!" ”

"Oh?" I smiled, "Let's think of a piece." ”
