After staring at the astonishingly large bone tower for a while, everyone frowned unanimously and took a few steps back.

Most people are not because of fear, but because so many human bones are piled up in one place, the cave is damp and closed all year round, lacking air circulation, forming a disgusting stench.

Bai Hesheng and the others looked at each other, put on the gas mask hanging around his neck, and took out spare items from his backpack and threw them to Qin Yue, motioning them to cover their mouths and noses.

The cooperative relationship is different from being a simple meat ticket. Qin Yue carried the mask and put it on, sighing in her heart.

"What's the matter with these people? Why did they die here?" Wei Zhixiang's voice became a little muffled because he was also wearing a mask, but he was always the most curious of all, "Brother Yue, Is there any custom about this?"

Qin Yue shook her head, expressing that she was not clear, "Qianzhou has many mountains and has been closed since ancient times, and because it is far away from the cultural center in the Central Plains, it is not surprising that there are strange customs."

After he finished speaking, Bai Hesheng approached the bone towers that were stacked in disorder, and carefully observed the skeletons in the bone towers with the aperture of the flashlight, "I guess these should be human sacrifices enshrined in Tongtian City, just like some places offer sacrifices to the heavens." Animals such as pigs, cattle, sheep and dogs."

Qin Yue bent down, bent her knees and leaned over, "How do you say?"

"These people have hanging tags on their necks, and their limbs and bones are too uniformly broken, as if they were worried that they would flee and resist, so they were deliberately broken."

Wei Zhixiang gasped, "This is too cruel."

"Even modern people are like this, let alone primitive tribes who believe in ghosts and gods." Qin Yue looked at Bai Hesheng pointedly.

The latter coughed dryly, avoiding eye contact, "Look, those jade plaques are also unified. Under the productivity at that time, it was like a religious ceremony to be able to do this."

As he pointed his hand, everyone noticed many square jade tablets hanging between Bai Sensen's bones, and some of them fell into the nearby soil due to the rotten rope. Due to the accumulation over the years, the number cannot be underestimated.

Qin Yue picked up a piece casually, wiped off the dirt on it, and struggled to discern the pattern or text on it by the light of the flashlight.After watching one piece, he picked up the second piece, and so on, after watching more than ten pieces before giving up.

Guan Yunheng asked, "What's wrong with these people?"

"It's quite strange." Qin Yue nodded, pointing to the pile of jade plaques and replied: "The sexes and ages of these people are not the same, but the common feature is that they were born on the eighth day of Luwang. According to the tradition, they are all People who are blessed, honored and prosperous have a precious life.”

I didn't expect the death to be so tragic.And there are many skeletons of young children and babies inside, which is really uncomfortable from a modern point of view.

He frowned and looked towards the high place. From a distance, he could see a few things like prayer flags hanging on the top, and he didn't know how they put them up in the first place.

Qin Yue pondered for a moment, and said: "Since there is only one pattern, it must be the result of careful selection. Xiangxiang, please tear off a piece of the prayer flag above." He wanted to see what the doorway was.

Wei Zhixiang nodded, ignoring the small exclamations around him.He flew to a high place lightly, took the things down, and it took less than a second before and after.

"Here, brother Yue, be careful. These things are old, broken and brittle."

Qin Yue nodded, and after looking at it with Bai Hesheng and others for a long time, he realized that it was a pattern of some kind of spell, surrounded by dense circles of ancient Qianzhou characters.It happened that Qin Yue didn't know these words.

Seeing his perplexed expression, Bai Hesheng couldn't help sighing, "It would be great if Xiao Liu was still alive. No one knows what is written on it now." The subordinate who made a special trip to read the ancient text was also in the previous fight Died.

"Although I can't understand the written description, this decoration should be a special formation. These human sacrifices were deliberately gathered for some kind of sacrifice." Qin Yue speculated reasonably.

Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered the skeleton he had offended before.He thought for a while, and said to Bai Hesheng and others: "In addition to this bone tower, we saw other people's bones over there just now, and they should belong to your elders."

Bai Hesheng was taken aback, and hurriedly asked where he was.Qin Yue simply led everyone back to the landing point, "Here, that's the one. Although the clothes on his body are very worn out, they are not completely rotted like those in the bone tower."

"That's right." Bai Hesheng and his two brothers walked over, groped along the corpse's clothes, and took out a rusty compass.The word "white" is engraved on the back of the compass.This time, the identity of the corpse is quite obvious.

Several people put their knees on the ground, kowtowed three times to the bone, and saluted: "Although I don't know which uncle you are, please bless our brothers to get back the things of our Bai family smoothly. , can also restore the lintel!!”

"Bai family...Bai family..." In the cave that was originally very quiet, only the sound of everyone's breathing, suddenly a female voice sighed leisurely.

Everyone was shocked, and a layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out on their backs. When they turned their heads suddenly, they saw a pale hand protruding from the inside, followed by a full-on fine attire.

She was a very beautiful woman, but because her complexion was too white, her eyes were set off like two bottomless pools of water, dark and faint, which made people feel cold all over.

"Living people? There are living people inside?" But how is it possible?All the people unanimously revealed their guarded looks, and formed a circle with Qin Yue as the circle.

Qin Yue: "..." Is he so reliable?What an honor!

The woman smiled and said kindly: "Don't be afraid. I haven't heard anyone's voice for many years, so I came out to greet you. Last time, because I came out late, two of those people came in The corpses were completely cold, and the other two were scared away by me. They didn't even say a word."

Although she wears a robe with wide sleeves, she speaks a vernacular that can communicate with modern people.After she finished speaking, she shook her head with regret, and asked while holding the golden hairpin in her hair, "Did you just talk about the Bai family?"

Things have gone out of common sense and control, Bai Hesheng and others looked at each other blankly, and finally looked at Qin Yue.

The woman also took advantage of the opportunity to look at Qin Yue. She swept Qin Yue quickly with her eyes, focusing on the sword floating in the air, "Jasyapa Sword? The Kasyapa Sword of the Xiao family? Are you a descendant of the Xiao family?"

Her tone unconsciously carried a hint of respect, "It's been so many years, I never thought I'd see this sword again. When I was young, I was far away, and we met once. Fuqiu...everything is fine. ?"

Qin Yue didn't expect a woman to recognize Kasyapa's sword and Fuqiu.He glanced at the silent sword spirit, and replied, "That's it."

Many previous experiences and lessons told him that either the other party acted without malice, or he really did not.So he will not tell Fuqiu's real recent situation, because in that way, the other party will have no scruples.

Unexpectedly, the woman's eyes lit up when she heard his words.She breathed a sigh of relief, with a happy face, put her hands together and said: "That's good, that's good. Fuqiu will make the world safe."

For a while, Qin Yue didn't know what to pick up.It seems that this descendant of the Zhang family has no prejudice against Fuqiu at all.But...is it possible?Is it an excellent disguise, a polite perfunctory or a heartfelt joy?

While thinking about the woman's identity, he suddenly noticed the golden plum blossom hairpin in her hair.

Such a plum blossom hairpin, an identical one was also placed in the coffin.Could it be... But how is it possible?

Qin Yue didn't want to speculate, he looked at the woman and said straightforwardly: "Maybe I guessed wrong. But could it be that you are the first witch Zhu of Tongtian City, Bai Xi?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "It seems that you have seen my clothes. Yes, I am Bai Xi, and Bai Xi is me!"

Everyone: "..."

In other words, does it mean that the great witch Zhu who lived thousands of years ago has lived to this day?

There is no life, no death, no old age, no death.Could this cornucopia of the Bai family be the elixir of life?
