Wen Wan saw that the sky was beginning to brighten and she couldn't help but start to get anxious. She threw the shovel aside and quickly walked back to Yuanchuan's tomb. Without even taking a break, she immediately prepared to open the coffin.
Seeing this, Zhou Ziheng hurriedly followed, forcing his somewhat sore eyes to open wide, and enduring the fatigue, he and Wen Wan moved the heavy coffin lid away.
After Yuanchuan's coffin was opened, Wen Wan's first reaction was not to see if there was a corpse that had turned into bones inside, but to put on the mask hanging on her chin first.
It seemed that the smell in this old coffin left such a deep impression on her that she no longer wanted to suffer a second gas attack.
Zhou Ziheng couldn't help but chuckle when he saw this, and then he followed her example and put the mask back on.
After the two men had made all the preparations, they lowered their heads and carefully looked at the situation in the coffin. Although they could not see clearly in the dim light, they could still see a skeleton dressed in tattered clothes inside.
Wen Wan couldn't help but frown deeply, the mystery in her heart growing even more. Her master's body, reduced to bones, was still there, so why weren't her bones there? Was this disappearance intentional, or what else was going on?
She couldn't help but sigh as she thought about it, but she didn't say a word. She just absentmindedly touched the coffin lid next to her, and together with Zhou Ziheng, lifted it up and moved it back.
After restoring her master's coffin, she followed suit and opened the other coffins one by one, finally coming to a conclusion...
Except for her own body, the bodies of the others were all there!!
Her emotions were extremely complicated at the moment, and she speculated with an incredible look on her face, "This is truly incredible. What on earth is going on? Why are everyone else's bodies here, but mine isn't?"
"Could it be...could it be that I was so mean and insulted the monster so much that it hated me so much that it just ate my body clean?"
"Even if it's a monster, it can't eat people and spit out the bones, right? Is its mouth really that big? Will it really not choke to death?"
Zhou Ziheng pondered for a long time and came to a conclusion, "I always feel that it's not as simple as just eating it."
"Why do you think so?" Wen Wan asked in confusion.
Zhou Ziheng began to analyze seriously, "The demon attacked you so cruelly, which shows that it is definitely not a good person. In other words, it is insidious and vicious."
"Even if you cursed it to death and no one else cursed it, it shouldn't just eat your corpse, because every one of you attacked it."
"Even if he hates you the most, he will also hate the others. What's more, you are all from the same sect. It is impossible for him not to vent his anger on them."
"...That makes sense. If it were me, I'd definitely take my anger out on them. Even if I couldn't finish them myself, I wouldn't leave anyone else's corpse intact. I'd definitely scatter their ashes!"
Wen Wan took it in for a moment and nodded in agreement, but the next second she couldn't help but sigh, "If my body wasn't eaten or stolen by tomb robbers, then where did it go?"
Zhou Ziheng raised his head slightly, looked at the sky that was about to get brighter, shook his head and said to Wen Wan, "The sky is about to get brighter, so let's bury the coffin first. We can deal with other things after we get back."
"Okay." Wen Wan nodded in response.
She was so focused on the issue of the missing body that she realized it was almost dawn when she heard Zhou Ziheng's words. They hurriedly restored the coffin together and then grabbed shovels and started working.
Although burying the remains back was not as difficult as digging, it still took some time. By the time they had reburied the five graves, the sun had risen completely and the sky was bright.
But they had long since stopped panicking. No matter whether they were in a hurry or not, it was already daybreak. It was impossible for them to return without being noticed. Liang Shaoyuan, the big mouth, might have already started spreading what happened yesterday.
That's it! Let's take it one step at a time!
Anyway, there will always be a way when you reach the mountain... right?
After the two of them had given up on themselves over a bowl of porridge, the pressure in their hearts was relieved a lot. They were so nervous yesterday that they didn't even pay attention to the scenery on the road. They were only concerned about finding and digging graves.
At this moment, I carefully appreciate it and find that the surrounding scenery is really nice. It is more than nice, it can be described with three words "very beautiful".
It will probably be even more beautiful after it snows, with everything covered in silver. The artistic conception and atmosphere are simply amazing!
They walked back, looking at the scenery, and stopped to take pictures. When they were about to walk out of the forest, Wen Wan stopped and dug some soil with a shovel. Because they didn't bring bottles and bags with them, they could only hold the shovel in the air while walking.
Don’t ask her why she went through so much trouble, because if you tell a lie you have to cover it up, otherwise you will definitely be exposed, so... never tell a lie that you can’t cover up, it’s a bloody lesson!
Zhou Ziheng stuffed all the magic weapons he dug out into his big down jacket, then crossed his arms over his chest and hugged them. Because the down was big, thick and long, no clues could be seen from the outside.
Don't ask him why he didn't put it in his pocket, because... it wouldn't fit! A peach wood sword that big! How the hell could it fit in his pocket!
In order to hide it from view, I can only stuff it into my down jacket. Thank you winter!
After they had taken care of everything, they left the forest and slowly walked towards the temple.
