"It's... that time we went on the study tour. I just didn't want to worry you guys."
Gu Shaoyun lowered her eyelids and didn't want to say any more, otherwise the truth would be revealed.
"The vote count is out, do you have anything else to say? Again, if you don't want to, then go your separate ways."
Wen Jinyu raised the corners of his lips with a smug smile, which made Gu Yuanqiao feel depressed.
"Okay! Since we're all 'family' and the majority agrees with the minority, I can accept that."
Gu Yuanqiao took a deep breath and agreed expressionlessly.
"So can I."
Tang Ying let out a breath and continued to follow Gu Yuanqiao.
Tang Yun smiled cheerfully, "I have always been neutral and will listen to you."
"So what should we do now? How can we bring back their souls?"
Gu Yuanqiao deleted the plot stream of the program team and quickly immersed himself in the supernatural stream led by Wen Xi.
If you can't beat them, you have no choice but to join!
Overall, Gu Yuanqiao is a man who knows how to deal with current affairs.
"Find the trapped soul!"
Wen Xi said, "Let's split into three groups. One group will go find Uncle Xu, one group will go find the village chief and Old Lady Cha, and the other group will follow me to Qingyun Mountain to find those five things."
"What? You still want to go to Qingyun Mountain?"
"Yeah, the mission cards are all here, why not go?"
"Didn't you say that these weren't necessarily tasks assigned by the production team?"
"Whoever placed this quest card here had a purpose. Finding those five ancient artifacts will also be a breakthrough."
"All right then!"
Gu Yuanqiao pursed his lips and said, "I'll go to Qingyun Mountain with you."
Tang Ying bit her red lips, glanced at Gu Yuanqiao, opened her mouth, but couldn't bring herself to say whether she wanted to go with him.
Are you kidding? The coffin has been sent to Qingyun Mountain. Isn’t that a very dangerous place? Who would dare to go there?
Wen Jinyu was worried about her, "Little sister, I will go to Qingyun Mountain with you too."
"Then Yue Xin and I will stay in the old house to look for Uncle Xu, and take care of my sister and her uncle."
Lu Xiangyu thought for a moment and said.
"Then the matter of finding the village chief and Old Lady Cha can only be between me and my sister."
Tang Yun patted his chest and said, "Leave it to us. We will definitely find someone to ask about the matter."
"good!"
Tang Ying didn't want to go to Qingyun Mountain, so she agreed.
Everyone's attention was focused on Gu Shaoyun, the only vacant seat.
"Xiao Yun, do you want to go up the mountain with us?"
Gu Shaoyun hesitated, "Is there a coffin on the mountain?"
Wen Xi said firmly, "Well, there might be more than one."
Gu Shaoyun was scared.
Tang Ying took the initiative to hook her arm and said, "Sister Yun, come with us so we can take care of you."
Gu Shaoyun thought for a moment, broke free from Tang Ying's hand, followed behind Gu Yuanqiao, and said, pulling his arm, "I'd better follow my second brother. Brothers and sisters are together, and it's better to have someone to look after us."
Gu Yuanqiao nodded, "Okay, let's go."
The group separated at the door of the old house.
Wen Xi and the others followed the same route as yesterday, heading towards Qingyun Mountain.
Along the way, the streets were empty and all the houses had their doors closed. Occasionally, a figure could be seen passing by the window.
"Look, we just came out to look for the phone, and this is what happened. In broad daylight, no one went out. They were all stuck at home. We knocked on the door but no one answered. It was really strange."
Gu Yuanqiao laughed sarcastically, "It's a shame that Village Chief Wu said yesterday that if we have any problems, we can go find him, but in the end, he was nowhere to be found."
Wen Jinyu laughed at him, "It must be because you are not handsome enough."
"You're handsome, why don't you knock on the door?"
"No, I want to go up the mountain with my little sister."
"Is this the way up the mountain?"
They walked across the bluestone bridge and found a path leading up the mountain.
The sky was overcast and gloomy. The top of Qingyun Mountain was shrouded in dark clouds, and there was a sign that a storm was about to come.
"The weather isn't very good. It might rain later. Let's make it quick."
Wen Xi strode up the mountain, and the others followed closely behind.
"This mountain is so big, how are we going to find those five things?"
Gu Shaoyun was panting as he climbed. After walking for a long time, there were only trees.
Soon, they climbed to the halfway point of Qingyun Mountain, where there was a large flat muddy ground.
"Come and take a look!"
Wen Jinyu exclaimed, "Is this box the thing we're looking for?"
There were many bamboos planted in the mud, and many red ribbons were tied to the staggered bamboos. There was a tattered box on the ground. Wen Jinyu opened the lid and found a tattered blue and white porcelain plate covered with mud in the box.
"It should be. Take it with you first."
Wen Xi packed up the things and put them into his backpack.
"Why does this box look like someone deliberately placed it here for us to find?"
Gu Yuanqiao expressed his inner doubts.
"It doesn't matter. Once we gather all the items and take them back, we'll know who that person is."
Wen Xi stood there for a while, and thunder began to sound above his head.
"It's really going to rain, let's go find it quickly!"
The four people worked separately and soon found the remaining four boxes.
"An old porcelain plate, a rusty suona, a broken bracelet, a wine jug with a missing corner, and a blackened brush! We found all five items."
As he spoke these words, a light drizzle began to fall from overhead.
"Let's get down the mountain quickly, it's going to rain heavily soon."
"OK!"
Gu Shaoyun had wanted to leave for a long time and was eager to go down the mountain. She slipped and fell, almost sliding down the mountainside, when Wen Xi pulled her back.
"Thank you, thank you!"
Gu Shaoyun's face turned pale.
"etc!"
Wen Xi glanced at the ground under Gu Shaoyun's feet. Under the soil that had been rubbed off, black wood was exposed.
"What's this?"
"It's a coffin!"
Wen Xi's words scared Gu Shaoyun so much that her lips turned pale and she jumped out of that place.
Wen Xi used a nearby branch to dig up the mud nearby and said calmly, "Don't jump anymore. No matter how much you jump, there will be coffins under your feet."
"What do you mean? Is this the cemetery of Qingyun Village?"
Gu Yuanqiao's psychological endurance was okay. He pursed his lips and looked at the mud washed by rain. In some shallow places, many black woods were exposed.
"Well, the smell of corpses is quite strong here. The red ribbons tied to these bamboos should symbolize tombstones."
"Wen Xi, you already knew this, didn't you? Why are you telling us now? We were just jumping around on someone's grave. Is that okay?"
Gu Shaoyun's heart was broken and tears of fear fell.
"Everything you're looking for is right here in this area. Telling you will only increase your fear. Besides, they're all dead, so they won't come after you."
Wen Xi pulled the hood of his coat to block out the rain and spoke calmly.
