Chapter 638 643. Accidentally Entering the Tunnel

Qiao Zixi raised her eyes and glanced at him indifferently.

"Sister, where have you been?"

Qiao Ziyi hurried over and took the awakened little Qiao Qiao from her hands. The little guy was holding a hibiscus leaf in his hand. When Qiao Ziyi held him over, he smelled a fragrance.

"Hey, what kind of leaf is this?"

Qiao Ziyi, who had not slept all night, was refreshed after smelling the fragrance. He looked at the thin green leaf in Xiao Qiaoqiao's hand with surprise.

"Hibiscus leaves."

As soon as Qiao Zixi finished speaking, Han Yixiao suddenly looked up.

"You went to the top of the mountain alone?"

The Fusang tree is a legendary sacred tree that grows close to the sun and can only be seen on the top of high mountains.

"Sister, is that true? Did you see the hibiscus tree?"

Qiao Ziyi also looked up, his eyes full of surprise.

"Yeah, I went there once."

Qiao Zixi replied indifferently.

Seeing that she didn't want to say more, everyone didn't dare to ask more. They just stared at the hibiscus leaves in Xiao Qiaoqiao's hand with curiosity, smelling the fragrance emanating from the leaves, and their minds became clearer.

"So are we still going up the mountain? Or should we just go back?"

After seeing the moon last night, Lin Shishi felt that it was no different from usual. In addition, she was scared last night, so she suddenly lost her curiosity about the legendary essence of the moon.

Bai Li and Zhao Youjun didn't want to go any further. The forest at night was too scary. Seeing this, Qiao Ziyi and Han Yixiao had to put aside their doubts and follow everyone back.

Back on the train, Qiao Zixi closed her eyes and rested. Lin Shishi and Bai Li, who had not slept all night, fell asleep. Only Qiao Ziyi held the hibiscus leaf in his hand and smelled it again and again, liking it very much.

When the train passed the mountain top and left it behind, Qiao Ziyi seemed to see that the mountain was greener than yesterday and the clouds were more misty.

Han Yixiao also noticed this scene. He thought of Qiao Zixi's face when she came down. It seemed that she looked much paler than usual. He wondered what she had done on the top of the mountain.

The atmosphere on the train was exceptionally quiet, with the only sound heard being the rumbling of the wheels rubbing against the rails.

On the other side, Tian Yuanyuan and her group accidentally entered a tunnel.

"This tunnel looks very old. I wonder what it was used for."

"Could it be for storing grain?"

"It looks like it was used during the Anti-Japanese War."

"Probably neither."

"Hmm? Why?"

"It should be used for sacrifice."

"Ah, sacrifice!"

Tian Yuanyuan was holding a flashlight and when she heard Bai Qi say the word "sacrifice", she suddenly thought of some bad images. The flashlight happened to shine on the wall, and a mural with a green face and fangs appeared, which scared her.

Bai Qi also discovered this mural. He stretched out his hand to trace the person in the painting, and distant memories surged in his mind. A woman in a black priest robe, with her back to him, a sad and gloomy atmosphere filled his face.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Just as the person in his memory turned around and he was about to see her face, someone patted Bai Qi's shoulder and he woke up suddenly.

Qiao Mansi stared at him in confusion. Seeing him lose his composure, which was a rare occurrence, he didn't know what had just happened.

"Nothing, I just suddenly remembered something."

After Bai Qi finished speaking, his gaze fell on the mural again. Just as he was about to take another closer look, a scream suddenly came from his ears.

“Ahhhhhh!”
