Only after Mr. Dong nodded at him did the soldier turn around and leave.
"Xuan Daozi, can you open this stone box? Don't try to pretend you have the truth!"
The person who spoke was the Taoist nun from before, and her tone sounded a bit gloating.
Xuan Daozi immediately snorted at her in dissatisfaction, "Nun Ziyang, don't underestimate me. I will show you my true abilities later."
At this moment, the warrior who had just gone out to get the axe came in carrying an axe that looked to weigh hundreds of pounds.
As soon as Xuan Daozi took the axe, he was almost pulled to the ground by it.
Fortunately, he finally crossed his legs and was able to stand steadily again.
Xuan Daozi got angry when he thought about the three stone boxes not giving him face. He immediately spat at one of the stone boxes and said, "Since you don't want to drink my toast and want to drink the penalty wine, then I, Xuan Daozi, will not be polite to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Daozi raised the axe in his hand with great effort and aimed it at the stone box with the talisman paper on it.
Zhang Meng watched and moved, and suddenly her arm was grabbed by Gu Mingtai beside her. He heard his soft voice in her ear, "Don't worry, let's take a look first."
Xuan Daozi's axe, which was raised in the air, suddenly stopped moving.
The people waiting to see the results in their seats were getting a little impatient. Some couldn't help but urge, "Xuan Daozi, why are you standing there? Why don't you just smash it!"
Xuan Daozi, holding the axe, shouted at them with sweat on his forehead, "Do you think I don't want to smash it, but I can't move my hands!"
What was even more damning was that the axe in her hand was extremely heavy, and now both of his hands felt like they were not his own.
As soon as he shouted, everyone rushed towards him. Zhang Meng also hurriedly pulled Gu Mingtai to follow.
With every step forward, the strange sound she had heard from the stone boxes appeared again. The three stone boxes made a rustling sound at the same time, and her head hurt more.
At this moment, Zhang Meng suddenly felt that her ears became much quieter.
She looked back and saw that it was Gu Mingtai who was following her who was covering her ears with his hands.
At this time, the people who walked over finally realized that Xuan Daozi was not lying. It seemed that the axe he held high was really impossible to take down.
Xuan Daozi, whose hands were about to break, looked at them with tears in his eyes and begged, "Someone please help me think of a way quickly. Help me take this axe down. I can't hold it anymore. If I hold it up any longer, my hands will be broken."
"How can we do it? We can't do it."
"That's right, or else cut off his hand!"
“That’s a possible solution.”
Xuan Daozi, who was holding an axe nearby, was terrified by the outrageous words these people said. He quickly shouted, "Shut up, all of you! Can you think of a better solution?"
Zhang Meng, who was standing next to one of the stone boxes, suddenly felt a chill on his neck, and then something slid down from his neck.
After a while, someone in the crowd shouted, "There's a snake! Who brought it in?"
"It really is a snake, and a white one at that. White snakes are not common."
When Zhang Meng heard the cry of "there is a snake", he quickly reached to his neck, but Xiaobai was nowhere to be found.
Zhang Meng nervously grabbed Gu Mingtai's arm and whispered, "Gu Mingtai, Xiaobai has escaped. What should we do?"
Gu Mingtai glanced at one of the stone boxes. He remembered that Xiaobai had come out of one of these stone boxes.
"Don't worry, that guy probably smelled the place where he had been before." Gu Mingtai spoke first to comfort his wife beside him.
The little white snake climbed up from the ground onto one of the stone boxes, and then wrapped its long body around the stone box.
Next, under the incredulous gazes of everyone, the stone box that the little white snake was coiled around suddenly and slowly opened.
When the little white snake saw the stone box was opened, it started to spit out its tongue very quickly. After a while, its whole body slipped into the stone box.
Everyone was stunned by what they saw, especially Xuan Daozi, who had to endure the pain of holding a heavy axe with both hands while also enduring the blow of a small white snake opening the stone box.
"This, this, this stone box was just opened by this little white snake, right? Am I seeing things correctly?"
"You're not mistaken. It was indeed opened by that little white snake."
