Siheyuan, integrating everything, cultivating the city
Chapter 1185 Open this box
Li Xiangqian stood in the yard, as if he was surrounded by an invisible pressure. Uncle Liu's words kept echoing in his mind, and his doubts grew deeper and deeper. There had been disappearances on that land, and it might even have "swallowed" some people. Whether Uncle Liu had good intentions or some other purpose, his words made Li Xiangqian feel a deep chill.
He didn't know whether he should believe Uncle Liu, but the feeling of uneasiness was like a thorn that pierced his heart. He lowered his head and looked at the loose soil under his feet, and suddenly felt dizzy. This place seemed to be full of unknown dangers and fears, but he knew nothing about them and didn't even have the ability to deal with them. Every time he tried to grasp a glimmer of certainty, they disappeared silently before his eyes like bubbles in the water.
"Do I really want to plant this land?" he asked himself repeatedly in his heart.
At this moment, a light breeze blew, bringing the unique coolness of the night, blowing the corners of Li Xiangqian's clothes and scattered hair. The grass in the yard swayed in the wind, as if a mysterious force was unconsciously controlling this land. He suddenly raised his head and looked at the empty land, and a strong intuition surged in his heart - this piece of land was indeed hiding something, perhaps it was really a taboo that he should not touch easily.
"Could it be true as he said?" Li Xiangqian's heartbeat suddenly accelerated and his body felt cold.
He forced himself to calm down, and kept telling himself: "I can't be scared, I can't be affected by these words, I can't let fear affect my judgment." However, the uneasiness in his heart could not be soothed. Recalling Uncle Liu's expression just now, he didn't seem to be joking at all. Even from that seemingly calm look, Li Xiangqian seemed to feel a hidden warning.
However, Li Xiangqian finally decided that he could not be defeated by these unknown fears. He suppressed his anxiety and decided to observe this piece of land again to find out whether it was true as Uncle Liu said, hiding some abnormalities that he had not noticed.
The next morning, Li Xiangqian walked to the open space in the yard again. Today's weather was sunny, and the sun shone through the thin clouds, shining on the earth, casting a warm color on everything. He stared at the land and stepped lightly on it, as if he was looking for something.
At first, he didn't find anything unusual. The soil was loose and there were scattered grasses, but nothing particularly outstanding. He began to dig gently with a shovel, trying to get deeper into the soil to see if he could find any clues.
However, when the shovel touched the deep soil, a strange feeling came over him. The soil seemed to become unusually hard, as if it had encountered some kind of impenetrable barrier. Li Xiangqian was stunned, and an inexplicable uneasiness arose in his heart. He lowered his head and took a closer look, and found that there was a hard object where he was digging. That thing did not seem to be a natural component of the soil, and its shape was also slightly abnormal.
He stopped what he was doing, his heart tightened, and he muttered in a low voice: "What is this?" A strong sense of uneasiness arose in his heart, realizing that he might have touched something he shouldn't have touched.
Li squatted forward and reached out to touch the hard object. Its surface was smooth and slightly cold. The sound of the heartbeat was clearly audible in his ears. His fingertips gently slid across the object, and suddenly, a faint vibration came.
He pulled his hand back abruptly, his heart beating violently, his eyes fixed on the object. His breathing was a little rapid, and his mind was in a mess. What was this object? It had been buried under the land for many years, so why was it discovered by him at this time?
Li Xiangqian's thoughts began to become confused. He raised his head and looked around. No one was there. The yard was still quiet, and the air was filled with the smell of soil. However, all of this seemed to be silently waiting for something. He took a deep breath and decided to continue digging.
As he continued to shovel the dirt, the object slowly emerged, finally revealing its true face. Li Xiangqian was stunned. He lowered his head and looked at a dilapidated wooden box in front of him. The edges of the box had rotted and the surface was covered with dirt, but judging from the shape and size of the box, it was obviously a man-made object. Li Xiangqian's heartbeat accelerated, and a look of disbelief appeared in his eyes.
"This... what is this?" He was puzzled and his hand reached for the box involuntarily.
Just as his fingers were about to touch the box, a cold wind suddenly blew past, and Li Xiangqian's body shook, and he suddenly retracted his hand. There seemed to be a harsh whisper in the wind, which gently floated into Li Xiangqian's ears. His heart shuddered, and he felt a pair of heavy eyes appear behind him. He looked back, but there was no one.
"What's going on?" Li Xiangqian's heart beat faster and he was stunned, not knowing what he was afraid of. Was it the whispering voice, or the terrifying secret hidden behind the box?
He began to hesitate. Should he open the box? If this was really some kind of taboo that he shouldn't touch, could he bear it? Uncle Liu's words came to his mind again, reminding him to be careful with every step he took on this land - every step could determine his fate.
However, his curiosity made him unable to give up the discovery in front of him. Li Xiangqian gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and finally decided not to hesitate any longer.
He grabbed the rotten wooden box with both hands and carefully pulled it out of the soil. The box seemed heavier than he expected. Although the appearance was damaged, the box was still firmly fixed in the soil. After a struggle, the box was finally pulled out completely, revealing its complete appearance.
Li Xiangqian wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, his eyes flashing with complex emotions. His fingers were already on the edge of the box, and when his fingertips touched the cold wood, his whole body trembled involuntarily. He breathed gently and slowly opened the lid of the box. At that moment, a sense of oppression suddenly came over him, as if the whole world had become silent at this moment.
There was nothing in the box. It was completely empty except for a thick layer of dust.
Li Xiangqian's mood instantly fell to the bottom. He looked down at the empty interior of the box, and a flash of confusion flashed through his mind. His eyes gradually became dull, unable to understand everything in front of him. He just felt a strong shock and felt that there was some secret buried in this box, but now, why is there nothing?
