Chapter 352: Unexpected Circumstances

The phone was quickly connected, I was afraid of delaying time, and I didn't care about saying anything, so I asked straight to the point: "Uncle Dong, take the liberty to call you, I want to ask, how many meters is a zhang in the Ming Dynasty?" ”

Professor Dong was a little surprised: "You just ask this?" ”

"Yes! Something is urgent. ”

Professor Dong thought for a while and said: "During the Ming and Qing dynasties, one foot of carpentry was 31.1 centimeters today, so one zhang is 311 centimeters. It was about 22 centimeters shorter than the current one. ”

"Got it! Thank you, Uncle Dong! I was about to hang up the phone, when Professor Dong on the other end of the phone asked again, "By the way, I was just about to ask you, how is Xiaodan okay?" ”

I was slightly stunned, what's the situation? Why did Professor Dong suddenly ask me such a question? After calming down, I replied honestly: "Uncle Dong, I've been a little busy lately, so I haven't contacted Xiaodan much!" ”

As soon as my voice fell, Professor Dong on the other end of the phone exclaimed, "What did you say!" Isn't Xiaodan with you? ”

"Nope!" I hurriedly asked, "Uncle Dong, is something wrong?" ”

Professor Dong said in a hurried tone: "Xiaodan said a few days ago that he was going to go out with a few friends for two days, and I always thought that I was going out with you, because I once went to your store and found that you were not there. ”

"Didn't you call her and ask?"

"I did, but I didn't get through. I also called your number, but it didn't get through. I thought she must be with you, maybe she was going on an adventure somewhere, because the signal was not very good, so the phone couldn't get through, so I didn't think much about it. ”

After listening to what Professor Dong said, I realized that the situation was serious, and hurriedly said: "Uncle Dong, don't worry, call the police first, I am in Longhu Mountain, Jiangxi, and I will rush back as soon as I finish my work." ”

"Good! Good! I'll call the police now! After Professor Dong finished speaking, he immediately hung up the phone.

An ominous premonition suddenly rose in my heart, Dong Xiaodan is missing? Could it be related to people in the cult? When we were in Tibet, the cult people attacked her and Professor Dong, and after we rescued them, they let the owl monster sneak into Doma Temple again at night to take Dong Xiaodan away, so it can be seen that they are eyeing Dong Xiaodan, but why are they eyeing Dong Xiaodan?

I was wondering in my heart, and Wuchenzi asked on the side: "Poor Dao saw Engong's sad face, but what trouble did he encounter?" ”

Only then did I come back to my senses and said with a solemn expression: "A friend of mine has disappeared, and I am afraid that she has fallen into the hands of the cult. ”

"Poor Dao has heard Engong mention the people in the cult many times, who are the people in this cult?"

"It's hard to say anything about this, I'll tell you when I get back, let's dig out the bone slip first."

I took a deep breath, calmed down a little, and continued to measure with a measuring tape, and according to the conversion ratio that Professor Dong told me, I quickly determined the exact location of the ancient locust tree four feet and nine feet away.

He took out a folding shovel from his backpack and hurriedly dug down.

Because it had just rained not long ago, the soil was relatively loose, and after digging for a while, I dug out a pit nearly one meter deep, but I didn't find anything, I was wondering if I was digging in the wrong place, and I was going to try it in another place, when the shovel suddenly touched something that seemed to be a hard stone, I was stunned, and hurriedly picked up the dirt to take a look, and it turned out to be a dark black wooden box!

Seeing this, Wuchenzi immediately said: "This is the wooden box that Poor Dao buried back then!" Bone Jane is inside! ”

I didn't expect to be able to dig it up, and I couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly dug out the wooden box.

The wooden box was not very large, it was rectangular, about a foot long, about half a foot wide and high, and it felt that it was not made of ordinary wood, because it was quite heavy in the hand, as if holding a stone.

"Dustless senior, is there anything in this besides the bone slips? Why is it so heavy? I asked at Wuchenzi.

Wuchenzi replied, "It's not that the contents are heavy, but that the wooden box itself is quite heavy. ”

"What kind of wood is this made of?" I couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"Gloomy Ebony!"

When I heard the gloomy ebony, I couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and immediately thought of the gloomy wooden coffin I saw in that evil stone tomb, and it was in that coffin that I first came into contact with the dragon armor.

I couldn't wait to open the wooden box, but I found a copper lock hanging from the wooden box.

Since more than 500 years have passed, the copper lock has long been rusted into copper lumps, and I was about to find a stone to smash the copper lock open, but Wuchenzi stepped forward, raised his hand and waved, and shot a cloud of black gas towards the copper lock, and the copper lock immediately burst into pieces and fell to the ground.

I hurriedly lifted the lid of the wooden box, and when I looked inside, it was indeed a scroll of bones.

I was filled with joy in my heart, and I was about to take out the bone slip to take a look, when Wuchenzi said on the side: "They will come out soon!" Eun Gong quickly put away the bone Jane. ”

As soon as I heard this, I hurriedly put the bone slip into my backpack, and was about to throw the gloomy wooden box into the grass, but I was stopped by Wuchenzi: "Engong should not throw the wooden box around, so as not to be discovered and bury the trouble, you better bury it in the earth pit again." ”

"Damn, is this too late?"

"Just throw the wooden box into the pit!"

At this time, I had already vaguely heard Wen Qingshan's voice, and it was obvious that he was deliberately speaking loudly to get my attention. In a hurry, I couldn't care so much, so I hurriedly threw the wooden box into the dirt pit, grabbed the shovel and prepared to shovel the dirt piled aside.

At this moment, Wuchen turned into a black whirlwind, rolling up the pile of dirt, and in an instant, the sand and rocks flew away, and I hurriedly retreated to the side.

But after a few moments, and before I could even come to my senses what had happened, I was at peace, and I saw that the pit had been filled in, and that the dustless was gone. At this time, the young Taoist priest happened to lead Wen Qingshan, the cheap and Zhang Qingyuan out of the cave.

Inevitably, the young Taoist priest noticed the freshly filled dirt pit, so I hurried up to them and asked them, "How is it inside?" ”

Wen Qingshan said with a smile: "It is worthy of being a Taoist blessed land, and there is really a hole in it." He replied with a wink at me, and I immediately understood, and nodded, indicating that I had succeeded.

The young Taoist priest didn't notice anything unusual at all, and led us out of the valley, and on the way back to the hotel, Wen Qingshan couldn't wait to ask me, "Shi Yu, have you already obtained the thousand-year-old fire Lingzhi?" ”

Because I didn't tell him about Gu Jian before, I only said that I came to Longhu Mountain to find a thousand-year-old Lingzhi, so he always thought that I was taking a thousand-year-old fire Lingzhi.

So far, I can only tell the truth: "I haven't found the thousand-year-old fire lingzhi, but I have found another thing." ”

"What's that?" Wen Qingshan asked.

I took out the bone slip from my backpack, handed it to Wen Qingshan, and said, "This is the bone slip." ”

"Bone Jane!?" Wen Qingshan took the bone slip from my hand, with a surprised expression on his face.

I nodded and said, "Actually, I came to Longhu Mountain this time, on the one hand, to find the thousand-year-old fire Lingzhi, and on the other hand, to take this scroll bone slip, which was buried here five hundred years ago by the predecessors of Wuchenzi. ”

"It's been buried for 500 years and it's still there!" The cheap was a little surprised.

Wen Qingshan said: "That valley is hidden, and it is also a Taoist holy land, so it is normal that no one has discovered it. However, what is so special about this bone slip? ”

"Just open it and see." I spoke.

Wen Qingshan immediately spread out the bone slip, he stared at the bone slip for a while, then suddenly raised his head and looked at me and said, "Could it be that these are dragon armor scripts!?" ”

"That's right! It's the dragon armor! ”

"Can you see what this is written on?" Wen Qingshan hurriedly asked.

"I haven't had time to see it yet! There's no rush on this matter, let's talk about it later. There is something more important at the moment. As I spoke, I took the bone slip back from Wen Qingshan's hand.

"You mean looking for a thousand-year-old fire reishi?" Wen Qingshan thought I was talking about this.

I shook my head and said, "No! The thousand-year-old fire Lingzhi can only be said next time, we have to rush back to Xiangsha! ”

"Why?" Asking, he asked.

I took a deep breath and said slowly: "I called Professor Dong just now, and he told me that Dong Xiaodan was missing. ”

"What!? Sister-in-law is missing!? Cheap exclaimed.

Wen Qingshan frowned, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" How could she have disappeared? ”

"The specific situation has not yet been clarified, she has been missing for two days, and I am afraid that she has nothing to do with the people in the cult."

Wen Qingshan immediately said: "Then without further ado, let's go back to Xiangsha now!" ”

We went back to the hotel to get our luggage, and then drove to Xiangsha in a hurry. On the way, I called Lin Keer and asked her to find out about the situation, Lin Keer told me that Dong Xiaodan asked her for a week off a few days ago, and did not say where she was going, but she felt that Dong Xiaodan's expression seemed to be a little wrong.

After listening to what Lin Keer said, I realized that something was not quite right, so I called several of Dong Xiaodan's girlfriends, and they all didn't know Dong Xiaodan's whereabouts at all, and they didn't even hear her talk about where she was going to travel.

The situation seems to have become complicated, if Dong Xiaodan really plans to travel, it is impossible for everyone to know her whereabouts, from this point of view, she must have encountered something tricky when she asked Lin Keer for leave, but the question is why she didn't tell Professor Dong or call me when she encountered a tricky matter, was she coerced?
