Chapter 1624 Back

After checking the number, Li Bai suddenly had a bad feeling. There were 10 clay figurines as offerings, and those who strayed into Heishui Village... were also 10!

Li Bai did not dare to move these clay figurines without permission. She walked forward, bent down, and used a very uncomfortable posture to check. Just by seeing the side face of one of the clay figurines, Li Bai's uneasiness became true.

This clay figurine turned out to be Li Maochun!

These little clay figurines were made very delicately, far from the clay sculptures outside. The painting on their faces was even more lifelike, depicting Li Maochun's pious demeanor to the core.

But Li Maochun had been captured by the Goddess of Injection.

"Plop!"

Li Bai, who was thinking, was frightened, and Zhang Yuanchao protected Li Bai like a conditioned reflex.

"The sound of water..."

Since entering the underground, Li Bai has been looking for water, or something related to water, but has not found anything until now.

Li Bai walked towards the direction where the sound of water came from, and soon found a well not far from the statue of Zhusheng Niangniang.

Strangely, the rope for drawing water from the well was broken, and no water could be drawn. There were several water bags under the stone edge of the well.

The water bags were bulging. Li Bai opened one and poured some out. There was indeed water inside, and the water was not cold, but even a little warm. The clean and thorough warm water flowing between his fingers seemed to warm Li Bai up.

Seeing this, Zhang Yuanchao also quickly poured some on his hands, then on his body, and finally washed his face with the water several times, "Oh, this water is very good! Girl, you try it too, it's still sweet!"

A surprising scene appeared. Zhang Yuanchao's lips, which were originally frozen purple, miraculously recovered their rosy color, and mist gradually rose from his body, just like a person sweating profusely after a full exercise.

At this point, Li Bai's eyes when looking at Zhang Yuanchao also changed, and he relaxed his vigilance and became a little guilty.

If the other party is not a super acting school, then the suspicion of the second generation Shenhong can be cleared. After all, the weirdness here is not difficult to see, and she thinks that the second generation Shenhong will not rashly use this unknown well water to wash her face, or even drink it.

"Okay, this water is useful, you save it." Li Bai interrupted Zhang Yuanchao who was still planning to continue to wipe his body with water.

Zhang Yuanchao grinned and smiled innocently, "Okay, listen to my daughter, save this water for use outside."

Without further ado, the two quickly returned to the statue of Zhusheng Niangniang and kowtowed in turn. The statue of Zhusheng Niangniang sat cross-legged on the Xumi platform steadily, holding her big belly with her left hand, and her right hand standing in front of her body. The index finger and ring finger that were swollen like a mallet were bent, as if they were forming a very strange seal.

After kowtow, nothing unusual happened. Li Bai stepped back step by step facing the statue, and then quickly returned along the tunnel with Zhang Yuanchao.

After walking along the tunnel for about half an incense stick of time, Li Bai, whose forehead was already sweating, slowed down his pace. Behind him, it was quiet, and nothing was chasing him. This trip of kowtow mission went surprisingly smoothly.

Li Bai did not think that this was due to her good leadership. She had to thank Yao, Shun and Yu. If it were not for the clues he gave, she might not even approach the well.

There was also Wang Fugui from Jiangcheng. The figures of these two people emerged in Li Bai's mind, "Everyone... Everyone must survive!"

After walking for a while, Zhang Yuanchao, who was walking in the front, suddenly became excited, "Girl! Girl, look!"

There was light at the end of the tunnel. It was the mark they left at the entrance of the tunnel, the oversized "candle!"

Seeing that they were finally almost there, Li Bai's heart finally slowly let go. She looked at Zhang Yuanchao in front of her who was as happy as a child, as if the softness in her heart was severely touched. She could feel that this old man over fifty years old was really good to her, the kind of sincere goodness.

Although he knew that everything in the mission was fake and these people were just data in the game, Li Bai still hoped that Zhang Yuanchao could survive. He would not choose him again in the next mission. If possible, he would help him and take him away from Heishui Village and this hell.

"What's going on!" Zhang Yuanchao's cry interrupted Li Bai's thoughts. Zhang Yuanchao covered his head and seemed to be in a frenzy. "How could this happen? We... How did we come back again!"

The next second, after seeing the huge square and the statue of the Goddess of Birth not far away, Li Bai was also dumbfounded. At the same time, a chill rose from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. "Actually... turned back again!"

But how could it be?

Let alone forks along the way, there was not even a single bend with a large angle. There was no possibility of getting lost at all!

Excluding all the impossibilities, the only possibility left was that they saw a ghost, which was also acceptable to Li Bai.

Their journey was so smooth that Li Bai felt it was unreal. Strangely enough, after the initial panic, she was even a little relieved. It was just getting lost, no big deal.

But now Li Bai really missed the days with Jiang Cheng Wang Fugui. At that time, she was not afraid of any dangerous situation. Jiang Cheng was smart. He was lucky that he didn't take the initiative to calculate others. There was no need to worry about getting lost. Wang Fugui could walk out casually. At most, they could hold on for a while longer until that guy called Wu came out and killed all the blind ghosts, and then they could get out.

"Girl, do you think the Bodhisattva thinks we are not sincere? How about... how about we kowtow to the Bodhisattva a few more times?"

Zhang Yuanchao's trembling voice interrupted Li Bai's thoughts. The two came to the statue of Zhusheng Niangniang again. This time, they changed the order. Li Bai knelt down and kowtowed first, and then Zhang Yuanchao.

But when Zhang Yuanchao stood up, he stared at the statue of Zhusheng Niangniang, and his brows couldn't help but frown.

"Don't look around, let's hurry up and leave!" The feeling of being watched became more obvious, and Li Bai couldn't help but hold the water bag in his hand.

"Huh? Strange, why do I think this statue of Bodhisattva is so strange?" Zhang Yuanchao's voice was full of doubts.

Li Bai thought, how could it not be strange? This shape is not a normal thing, and she really didn't understand why Zhang Yuanchao could call this statue a bodhisattva. No matter how you look at this thing...

The next second, Li Bai's eyes widened suddenly. She finally realized why Zhang Yuanchao said that this bodhisattva statue was strange. The statue of the Goddess of Birth was sitting on the Sumeru throne, holding her big belly with her right hand, and her left hand was in a seal. Her head was covered with a red veil. Everything was so quiet, but... but she clearly remembered that the statue just now was holding its belly with its left hand and making a seal with its right hand!

The statue of the Goddess of Birth... moved!
