Chapter 0056 The Mysterious Stone Box

The light at the bottom of the river is dim, and the water is rushing, and it is difficult to see what is in the hand when it sinks.

He only looked at the things in his hands, but he didn't have a firm footing, and a torrent swept over him. He staggered and was almost swept away by the torrent.

"Successful!"

With a secret cry, he hurriedly shoved the things in his hands into his arms, and immediately swam towards the water with all his might.

But before it could sink much upstream, a black shadow appeared in front of it, but it was a big rock at the bottom of the water.

With a "bang", he couldn't dodge in time, and his body was swept by the torrent and hit it heavily.

Shen Luo groaned, and half of his body was in severe pain. Especially unfortunately, his head was still knocked on the stone, and his eyes were black, and he temporarily lost the power to think.

He spit out a long string of air bubbles, and his body was completely swept away by the water.

At this moment, the rope on the sinking waist suddenly straightened, but the length reached the limit, pulling his body in time.

It was just that the water flow was too fast, and he was restrained by a strong force around his waist, causing a sharp pain in his ribs, but his slack consciousness was restored, and he hurriedly swam towards the river with his hands and feet.

Shen Luo swallowed several large mouths of river water one after another, and finally surfaced before he was completely exhausted.

If he woke up one step later, he would have drowned in the river at this moment.

Shen Luo took a few deep breaths, managed to gather up a little strength, grabbed the rope around his waist, and swam back to the side of the boat.

He climbed onto the boat with both hands and feet, and the last bit of strength from his body was finally squeezed clean, lying on his back under the awning, breathing heavily.

After a while, the strength in the sinking body regained some strength. He immediately sat up, stretched his hands into his arms, and loosened his tight cheeks.

The thing is still there, not lost.

Shen Luo took it out, but it was a three-foot-long, palm-wide white stone box with a lot of mud on it.

The stone box looks not small, but it is light when you start it.

Shen Luo weighed it in his hand, and shook it by his ear, vaguely hearing some movement inside.

At this time, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the surging river water was still swaying the boat. Fortunately, the daring boat was quite strong, and he had reinforced the rope before so that it would not be washed away.

It was only for a while, and he couldn't go back.

Shen Luo wiped the water stains on his face, wiped off the remaining mud on the stone box, put it on a short square table in front of him, and looked carefully.

The color and texture of the stone box are similar to those of jade, but the texture on it is different from the jade species seen in the past, and there is no mechanism such as a lock on the box body, and there is no obvious engraving pattern. , it looks like a whole piece, only a shallow pattern can be seen vaguely at the junction of the box cover and the box body.

Shen Luo hesitated for a while, stuck the pattern with his fingernails, and smashed it hard on his hand.

There was a soft sound of "click", and the fingernail was scratched from the box cover. The sharp pain caused him to take a deep breath.

While shaking his hand to relieve the pain, he turned the stone box over, trying to see if it could be opened from the other side, but the result was the same, it couldn't be opened at all.

The pattern on the stone box seems to be really just a pattern, not the interface of the box cover.

So, Shen Lu tossed it over and over again, checked all the sides of the stone box carefully, and stroked each corner of the stone box with his fingertips, trying to see if there was any hidden mechanism.

But no matter how much he searched, he couldn't find anything unusual.

"This is a bit difficult..." Shen Lu stared at the stone box, unable to do anything.

After hesitating for a moment, his eyes suddenly narrowed, as if he had made up his mind.

He turned back and rummaged in the cabin for a while, and with a "swoosh", he pulled out a short-handled iron axe about a foot long from a pile of fishing nets and held it in his hand.

The hatchet was used for chopping wood by Da Da on weekdays. Due to the dampness in the cabin, there was a lot of rust on the axe, but it was only a shallow layer. It was wiped off with a light wiping with a rag.

He held the handle of the axe in one hand, and brought the axe blade close to the mark on the stone box. He didn't dare to exert too much force, but only lightly slammed it a few times. Seeing that the stone box showed no sign of being opened or damaged, he gradually Step up.

"Keng..."

As the sinking axe slashed heavily, a sound of gold and stone clashing suddenly sounded from the stone box.

The low table in the cabin shook violently, the stone box bounced back, jumped abruptly, and almost flew out. Shen Luo hurriedly threw away the axe, grabbed the stone box, and checked it carefully.

As a result, not even the slightest mark was left on the stone box. Instead, a dent was smashed into the middle of the low table.

"Sure enough, it's a treasure, and it's a match for the jade pillow." Shen Luo saw that he couldn't split the stone box, and it was not surprising, but he felt that it was right.

He gently stroked the stone box with his palm back and forth for a while, and a thought suddenly flashed in his heart, since this fairy family thing can't be opened with ordinary methods, why not try it with a talisman, if there is a "little thunder talisman", it will be enough What about splitting it?

It's just that the thought of sinking came to mind, and he hesitated again.

The power of the small thunder talisman is not bad, what if one is not careful and directly destroys the contents inside?Wouldn't that pay off?

But there is no other way for a while, and with the firmness of this stone box, there is no chance of anything going on.

With this in mind, Shen Luo took out the last small thunder talisman from his bosom, put it on the stone box, and put the primordial stone on the small thunder talisman, preparing to draw a little lightning power from the small thunder talisman, be careful first try it.

As a result, before he could run the Yang Gang Qi to ignite, the small cluster of white gas in the primeval stone tumbled violently on its own, and then burst into a bright white light.

Shen Luo's eyes widened, and he was surprised to see that under the illumination of the white light, on the originally smooth and traceless stone box, there were lines of slender light marks out of thin air, criss-crossing, like a rattan mat weaving.

It's just that in the middle of the "vine seat", there is an area that seems to be sunken, only the size of a finger, and the light inside is dim, far less bright than the surrounding area.

Chapter 0057 Tooth Mark

Shen Lu looked at the recessed area on the stone box, moved in his heart, and stuck out a finger, first tentatively reaching into the range of the white light, he felt a cool breath, lingering on his finger, as if reaching into the Like the river water, there is no discomfort.

So, he lowered his fingers a little more, leaned closer to the stone box, and the cool feeling became clearer, as if it was emanating from the stone box.

Shen Luo was very afraid of the cold air in her heart, and now she hesitated again.

However, the energy of the primeval stone seemed to be exhausted soon, and the white light emanating from it began to shrink, dimming little by little.

Shen Luo gritted his teeth, and just before the light disappeared, his index finger suddenly poked down, directly hitting the "sag" in the center.

The white light that was fading originally seemed to freeze at the moment he dropped his fingers, floating motionless.

At this moment, Shen Lu himself seemed to be frozen in place, and even his breathing and heartbeat suddenly stopped.

Amidst the noisy rainstorm, a weak "click" sounded into his ears, as if it bounced organically.

The lid of the box under the sinking finger suddenly flicked upwards, and with a slight friction sound, it slid forward.

"It's done!"

Shen Luo was overjoyed and hurriedly looked inside the box.

Abrupt mutation!

In the stone box, a black smoke suddenly shot out, hitting Shen Shen head-on.

Shen Luo was suddenly shocked, and suddenly pushed the low table in front of him, and his body fell backwards, hitting the cabin awning directly.

The black smoke didn't sink in, but it didn't dissipate. Instead, it gathered more and more densely, from which a ghost-head phantom the size of a wheel manifested, which went up to the awning and reached the cabin.

The ghost's head was green and black, with fluffy hair on its head, eyes as big as copper bells, flickering with a faint cold light, and a bloody mouth with uneven fangs.

Shen Luo didn't have time to figure out what was going on. He could only force himself to calm down. He swayed forward quickly, and grabbed the small thunder talisman and primeval stone on the low table with both hands.

"Cuckoo..."

The sinking action seemed to anger the ghost-headed phantom, and there was a series of strange smiles in his mouth, rushing towards him.

The cabin is narrow, and sinking is unavoidable. He can only hold the primeval stone in one hand, urging the Yang Gang Qi in his body to flow into it, and pat it on the small thunder talisman in the other hand.

The ghost head flashed a phantom, and it moved to the front like a teleportation, a bloody mouth, and a blue-black breath.

Shen Luo only felt a strong fishy smell coming towards his face, his head also seemed to be smashed with a sap, the shadows in front of him were heavy, his body softened, and he collapsed to the side.

"Giggle..." The creepy laughter echoed in the small cabin.

Shen Luo's vision became more and more blurred, and only vaguely saw that the ghost head phantom suddenly began to shrink little by little, and finally turned into a fist-sized bone skull.

The white bone skull was unusually white, and the surface even had a little luster. It jumped directly to its shoulder and bit it down.

"Well……"

Shen Luo let out a painful groan, and his body suddenly tensed up, only to feel a strong cold current spread from the bitten place, and instantly flowed through every corner of the body.

A dense layer of white ice, covered with frost flowers, quickly spread from his shoulders, covering his entire body in just a moment.

Shen Luo's eyes darkened immediately, and he passed out completely.

However, what was strange was that the white frost only froze the sinking body, and the cold air was strong, but it did not infect the surrounding objects at all, and even the cabin floor below him did not show any strangeness.

I don't know how long it has passed, the sky has cleared up, and the shadow of the sun is slanting to the west.

A smear of sunlight pressed against the inner top of the awning, shone in from the outside of the boat, and projected onto Shen Luo's cheeks. The layer of frost on his body had melted away at some point.

At this time, Shen Luo's eyelashes trembled slightly and slowly raised his eyelids.

The bright light suddenly stimulated him, and he couldn't help but narrow his eyes again. After a while, he blocked his sight with one hand, propped himself up with the other, and slowly sat up.

Shen Luo only felt that his body was sore and soft, and his clothes were sticking to his body.

"cough……"

Shen Luo coughed dryly, only to feel that his throat was burning like fire, and his body seemed to be enveloped by a feeling of dryness.

He licked his dry lips, looked beside him, and found that the water tank on the boat had been knocked down at some point, and the water inside had been drained.

Shenluo's Adam's apple moved, turned over and crawled towards the stern of the boat, but only felt that his mind was still abnormally dizzy. He finally stumbled out from the side of the boat, but was startled by his own reflection in the water.

I saw myself at the moment, with disheveled hair, flushed face, and blue veins on the forehead, looking a bit hideous.

Shen Luo couldn't help but shrank back, and then stretched out the same red hands, grabbed a handful of water in the Luanshui River, and patted him on the face.

With the cool river water on his hands and face, Shen Lu immediately felt a burst of relief, and his dazed mind was also a little sober.

He slid forward, grabbed the edge of the boat with both hands, and plunged his entire head into the river water. He didn't care whether it was clean or not. He drank several gulps of river water in a row, and the burning feeling in his throat finally came to an end. Relief, the heat on the body also subsided a little.

Shen Luo let out a long sigh, and felt that the clothes on his body were really sticky and uncomfortable. He simply turned over and fell directly into the river, immersing his whole body in the water.

As the cold river water continued to wash over his body, Shen Lu finally felt that the heat on his body was no longer so unbearable, but there was a faint tingling sensation in the meridians all over his body.

That kind of pain is not continuous, it just seems to be punctured by a sharp needle from time to time, and the position is different each time. Fortunately, the pain is not intense, and Shen Shen feels that it can be tolerated.

It was only then that the feeling of drowsiness in his mind finally subsided, and he suddenly remembered the ghost head he saw when he opened the stone box earlier, and he couldn't help shivering.

Shen Luo hurriedly tore off the right half of his shirt, and saw a dark red tooth mark on his right shoulder!

Chapter 0058

Shen Luo hurriedly straightened up from the water, swept around in a circle, and then probed into the boat and looked around for a while, and then slowly immersed his body back into the water, his face a little gloomy.

It seems that he accidentally got into trouble, he released something that shouldn't be released.

Shen Luo frowned, raised his hand and gently stroked the tooth mark on his right shoulder, and found that there was no pain at all, and the skin there was not broken and bleeding, just like the tooth mark was painted on.

But he clearly remembered that before he fell into a coma, his right shoulder was indeed bitten by the skeleton turned into a ghost head, and he even remembered the ice cold when the teeth touched his skin.

Shen Luo thought for a while, then picked up some river water, sprinkled it on the teeth marks, and rubbed it with a little strength, but only the surrounding skin was rubbed a little red, and there was no other change.

The dark red color on the tooth print seems to be caused by blood stasis and stagnation, and I don't know if it can be eliminated after a while.

Shen Luo thought about it for a long time, but couldn't come up with a clue, so he had to give up temporarily.

He waited for the dry and hot feeling on his body to gradually fade away. He grabbed the edge of the stern with both hands, and his arms suddenly exerted force, trying to use the strength to climb back onto the boat.

Who would have thought that as soon as he exerted force on this side, the entire stern seemed to be hit by a boulder. It sank suddenly and was directly buried under the water, while the half of the hull attached to the bow was raised high. pointed to the sky.

Inside the cabin, there was a "jingle bell clang" sound, and the miscellaneous things inside slid down one after another.

Fortunately, Shen Lu's eyes and hands were quick, and he hurriedly lifted the stern of the boat that he had pressed up, and the bow of the boat was lifted into the water again, causing the water to splash and fluctuate.

"How is this going?"

Shen Luo gently supported the swaying hull, and looked straight at his hands with an unbelievable look in his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, he turned around, faced the fast-flowing river on the other side, raised a palm, exerted a little strength, and slammed it out towards the water.

Hearing a dull sound on the river surface, the river immediately seemed to have smashed into a boulder weighing several hundred kilograms. Suddenly, the water was turbulent, and the waves rose up, pushing a wave of zhang-high waves upstream against the current.

The water wave threw a few feet away before it weakened and fell into the river again, and there was still a deep vortex where he slapped, and it gradually disappeared after a few breaths.

"My strength...how did it become so great?" Shen Luo stared at his palm, still feeling unbelievable.

He went around the hull and climbed up the rocky beach, and saw that the cable used to fix the hull at the bow had been snapped by the moment when the bow was just pushed up. In order to prevent the ship from being washed away, he again Quickly tied it up again.

Shen Luo turned around and looked left and right on the rocky beach for a while. When he saw a stone the size of a human head on the ground, the surface was quite flat, so he squatted down beside it.

I saw that he stretched out his palm, gestured on the stone, suddenly gave a light drink in his mouth, and then slapped it down with a palm.
