Silkworm armor

The bones that climbed up the corridor met the people who were going uphill, and they all turned around and rushed back.Those in the ice room want to go out, and those in the corridor want to come back, and they scramble around like a swarm of headless chickens for a while, clinging to the entrance of the cave.There was a sound of falling bones, and the ice room seemed to be covered with heavy hailstones.

There was already a corner of the ice room, Baili Miyin put down Hu Wan, turned back and pulled the man out of the pile of bones.

The man's terrified expression did not fade away, he leaned against the wall and trembled, even a man of seven feet was quite frightened.Baili Miyin was about to return to Huwan, but unexpectedly another person rolled down from above, and before Baili Miyin stretched out his hand to pull it, two more fell down one after another.Baili Miyin took a look and saw that the four guardians had arrived, only Bian Sanglan was missing, so she was not in a hurry to pull the three of them.Anyway, the bones are no longer a threat to them, so let's save them for Bian Sanglan.

The bones basically withdrew from the ice room, and Baili Miyin and Hu Wanfang were able to take a closer look at the place.The ice room is square in circumference, with the upper circle and the lower circle, which shows that the diggers are quite particular.At the four corners stand the same earthen pottery tripod, which is waist-high, and the patterns of clouds and birds on it are crudely carved, but they can be recognized at a glance.The four walls and the arched dome are neat and seamless, and the empty ice room has no other openings except the corridor, and there is nothing else.

The outside wind can't come in, and it's not as cold as before.

The wooden protector of Tiancan Village regained his composure, and when he got up, he found a soft thing under his body, and when he looked closely, his hairs stood on end, and he was extremely terrified.He backed away far away and kept wiping his hands on the cotton jacket, as if he had touched something dirty.

Seeing that Protector Mu had an abnormal expression, the rest of the people were puzzled and asked, "What's wrong?"

Mu Hufa raised his hand timidly and pointed to the front, stammering, "Water...water...Water Guardian!"

Everyone looked sideways when they heard the words, and after a rough look, they saw a pool of dark red blood, which had already frozen into ice, and a pile of ragged clothes on it, which was indeed the guardian of the water.However, one of the sharp-eyed guardians saw the clue, and immediately backed away in horror, and couldn't help retching.

The other two people didn't know why, but they saw that their companions were uncharacteristically, and they were driven by curiosity to take a closer look, and then they saw the flesh wrapped in the clothes.Water Guardian seemed to have been boned, leaving only a lump of flesh, his facial features and limp hands could be vaguely discerned from the exposed flesh.After seeing Guardian Qingshui's death, the two suddenly felt weak in their limbs and staggered back.

Hu Wan also couldn't bear to look directly at her, and turned her head, sobbing.When he came in, the water protector was still full of vigor and vitality. Who would have expected that he would end up like this in a blink of an eye.

The four guardians looked gloomy and sat silent, almost forgetting their owner.Baili Miyin saw that Bian Sanglan hadn't appeared for a long time, and reminded him: "Where is your owner?"

The four people who were immersed in wonder just remembered Bian Sanglan, got up in a daze, looked at each other, and each hoped to get an answer from their companions.

"Isn't the owner following you?"

"I... I saw the group of reptiles running around. I was so scared that I couldn't even hold the rope. Before I could notice the owner, I... fell." He still felt scared, and shivered involuntarily.

"Don't look at me, I was the first to fall."

"The incident happened suddenly, and I didn't care about the owner." I was too busy to take care of myself, and I couldn't concentrate on it.

"Did you leave us and escape?"

"According to the owner's temper, it's hard to say."

"Then what do we do next?"

"Since the owner asked me to assist the people in Cang Sai, then obey the order. Those bugs don't hurt anyone, and she shouldn't be in danger." They still don't know the cause of Water Guardian's death.

"Well, it doesn't matter if the owner is not here, you can be at ease." Thinking that Bian Sanglan was not in front of them, the guardians quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

The four guardians muttered softly for a while. Although they deliberately lowered their voices, Hu Wan and Baili Miyin still heard their conversation clearly in the empty ice room.I thought they could discuss the reason, but in the end, they agreed that Bian Sanglan should not be bothered.

Baili Miyin thought for a while, and felt that the words of the four guardians were reasonable, so he stopped asking.Without Bian Sanglan, Baili Miyin's ears are clean, neither can he see enemies that are in the way, nor will he fight with him, thinking about it this way, he feels comfortable physically and mentally.

"Is there anyone out there panting?" Bian Sanglan's voice floated through the corridor, seeming unreal.

Hufa Mu's humble hopes came to nothing, but he didn't show any disappointment on his face. He was afraid that Bian Sanglan would lose his temper if he was too slow to answer, so he immediately shouted: "Master, everyone is still alive, come down."

The bones in a dilemma all hibernate in the corridor, confronting Bian Sanglan.She only thought that the bone was blocking her way, but she didn't know that she was blocking the way of the bone.There was no accident when encountering the bone scorpion for the first time, Bian Sanglan was completely unaware of the mystery, and assumed that this thing was not harmful, it was just ugly.Just halfway through the journey, Bian Sanglan suddenly saw an army of skeletons, Bian Sanglan was almost frightened, and hurriedly climbed up.Fortunately, Gu Yao was able to breathe in the long corridor, so he didn't trample her under his feet.Now even if the bones don't invade her, she dare not use them to pave the way, how creepy!

Bian Sanglan, who was alone, struggled with herself, her legs seemed to be filled with lead, and she stopped moving forward.

"Master, are you coming down?" Before Bian Sanglan could respond, Mu Hufa raised his head and asked.

"What's the reminder to delay your reincarnation?" Bian Sanglan was upset.

"..." The four guardians kept silent, they didn't dare to ask more questions, wishing that Bian Sanglan would stay on top.

Baili Miyin didn't care whether Bian Sanglan would come down or not, and walked around the base of the wall, carefully looking up and down the ice room, trying to find the hidden opening.She firmly believed that no matter who it was, it would not be just to house four mediocre earthen pottery tripods after spending so much time digging the ice room.

"Ayin, it may be extremely difficult to install the machine in the ice. Is there really another passage here?" Hu Wan thinks that the possibility of the machine hidden in the ice room is extremely low, and there is no other exit in sight, maybe There is really no way out.

Baili Miyin pondered for a long time, feeling conflicted.What Hu Wan said is true, the ice layer has almost no conditions for installation.It would be too unreasonable to say that the ice cave was dug through just to place four pottery tripods, unless... Baili Miyin cast his eyes on the crude pottery tripod in the corner, thinking that it might have another mystery .

Bian Sanglan, who fell from the sky, fell into the ice room with a "plop", startling everyone.She got up slowly, and rolled her eyes disapprovingly when she met everyone's probing gazes.

"Villa Master, why did you come down?" Mu Hufa took the lead to meet him.

"My heart is down." Bian Sanglan said casually.

"Don't worry, owner, it's safe here."

Bian Sanglan glanced around, suddenly a sneer appeared on his face, and said, "I see that there is no way here, so why did you call me down to tell me that this place is safe?"

"It's because I didn't think carefully." Mu Hufa knew he was wrong, and lowered his head, not daring to look at Bian Sanglan.

Bian Sanglan snorted and didn't argue with Mu Hufa.She walked up and down the ice room with her hands behind her back, walked up to Baili Miyin in a moment, and asked, "Baili Miyin, did you find my silkworm armor?"

Baili Miyin glanced at Bian Sanglan, turned and walked away.

Probably accustomed to Baili Miyin's attitude, Bian Sanglan curled her lips and looked at the ice room out of boredom, not long after she found the boneless corpse on the ground, her face paled in shock.With such a strange death, she immediately thought of Zhang Ji's words, and then she was convinced that the group of bugs were bone moths.However, everyone in the ice cave has crawled through the pile of bones, why did the water protector alone suffer?

Bian Sanglan was puzzled, she walked up to Baili Miyin again, and asked, "Baili Miyin, how did the water protector die? Is that thing really a bone?"

"En." Baili Miyin, who was bending over to study the pottery tripod, raised his head, knowing that Bian Sanglan already had the answer in his heart.

"Then...why don't the bones eat us?"

"Ask the bones!"

"Aren't you curious?"

"I'm not curious."

"If you're not curious, it means you know the reason." Bian Sanglan stared straight at Baili Miyin, quite aggressive, vowing to get the truth out of her mouth.

Baili Miyin was suddenly speechless, his brows and eyes were filled with irritability, and he simply ignored her.

Knowing that Baili Miyin used to use this trick to deal with her, now seeing that she is silent again, Bian Sanglan knew that even if she asked again, she would not be able to pry her open.Bian Sanglan thought about it for a second, Hu Wan was so smart, she must have discovered these problems early on, and with Hu Wan's thirst for knowledge, she would definitely get to the bottom of it to find out the reason.Since Baili Miyin didn't tell him, it's better to ask the gentle Hu Wan.

Bian Sanglan turned her head and saw Hu Wan in another corner, like Baili Miyin, who seemed to be very interested in Tu Tao Ding, so she slowly moved to her side.Bian Sanglan didn't get straight to the point, but squatted next to the pottery tripod, pretending to appreciate the patterns on the tripod's body.

"Is there something wrong?" Hu Wan watched all directions with her eyes and listened to all directions. She saw Bian Sanglan's actions.Seeing her having a conversation with Baili Miyin, she must have been devastated.

"What kind of utensil is this?" Bian Sanglan looked at it from the left, and smiled a little guilty.

"There are feet and ears, it is a tripod."

"Oh, it's quite exquisite." Bian Sanglan didn't understand, so she made nonsense.

"It's pretty crude." Hu Wan refuted Bian Sanglan mercilessly.

"..." One sentence exposed Bian Sanglan's ignorance, but she felt that it was not shameful to appear ignorant in front of Hu Wan. "What's the use of this thing?"

"Originally it was a container, but later it was a ritual vessel." Hu Wan knew that Bian Sanglan's drunkard's intention was not to drink, so he did not elaborate, but explained it in one sentence.

"Oh..." Bian Sanglan drew a long ending, with a teachable tone.Her eyes fluttered, thinking hard about how to get to the point. "Doctor Hu, I see that you and Baili Miyin are both very interested in this. Could it be that this tripod is very precious?"

"From the perspective of material, shape, and decoration, it is worthless."
