Chapter 84 Weird Shadow
Walking around the statue, Qiong Ying looked confused.
According to Sean, the thing should be on the statue.
After searching carefully again, Qiong Ying still found nothing that could be disassembled.
Sean wouldn't lie to me...there must be something wrong...
With this idea in mind, Qiong Ying tried again.
This time, she discovered that the two hands of the statue could be moved horizontally.
The stone arm is embedded in it in some unknown way, and the angle can be moved with a little force.
After trying for a long time, Qiong Ying finally discovered that in addition to the statue, the bushes surrounding the statue were also different.
Of all the plants that are supposed to be strangely symmetrical, two have obvious differences.
After moving the arms of the statue forcefully until the two arms were aligned with the two plants, the statue finally made a slight tremor.
On the originally smooth and seamless back neck of the statue, two stone slabs slowly opened.
Qiong Ying was immediately overjoyed. She stood on tiptoe and put her hand in. After groping for a while, she took out a small black jewelry box.
She did not check, but pulled the collar and stuffed it directly into the abyss.
Qiong Ying didn't notice that she had spent a long time, and the shadows around her were already squirming as if they were alive.
The statue was restored to its original position.
Qiong Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief, but now she has to face another problem.
Looking at the way she came with some fear, Qiong Ying had some hesitation on her face.
She has to go back, but there is something unknown and terrible hidden in this garden.
Take a tentative step forward, and the tall flowers and plants on both sides of the stone road stand together.
Qiong Ying stepped back with an ugly expression. She had never seen such a strange thing before, and she didn't even know whether it was some kind of creature or some kind of supernatural power.
Just as she was thinking about how to escape from this area, a shadow under the flowers and grass squirmed quietly.
The shadow was like spreading ink, slowly drilling towards Qiong Ying along the ground.
The shadow is getting closer, and a deeper hole is slowly appearing in its center. The surrounding black flowed down like a waterfall, but the edge did not shrink at all.
Qiong Ying frowned and looked ahead, thinking about how to get out of trouble.
At this moment, she suddenly felt a sudden tremor on her back, and the Steinway III sent out a strong warning signal.
Instinctively taking a step back, Qiong Ying's feet suddenly seemed to be grabbed by a giant, trying to drag her entire body away!
The step back just now gave Qiong Ying a chance to struggle. She backed up crazily, and the modules loaded on the Steinway III ran at full speed like crazy.
The temporarily condensed water ball had no effect. She could only struggle desperately, digging the fingertips of both hands into the cracks of the stone slabs.
“Ah——” A muffled roar came from her throat, and she finally pulled herself out.
A shoe was wrapped in shadow, and in her horrified eyes, it flowed to the center of the shadow, and then disappeared completely.
The shadow seemed unable to enter the area around the statue. After lingering at the edge for a while, it quickly faded away and turned into the shadow of flowers and plants again.
Qiong Ying panted rapidly. She looked at the area in shock, her back already wet with sweat.
"What..."
Before she could even finish talking to herself, a hand was placed on her shoulder.
With a scream, Qiong Ying gathered the water ball in her hand and was about to throw it back.
Latiya’s calm voice sounded.
"Qiong Ying, why are you here?"
The girl gasped, and she finally saw the person who appeared behind her clearly.
Latiya stood there at some point, with the sun behind her, and the shadows covering her cheeks. A huge chill rose in her heart, and Qiong Ying clenched her hands subconsciously.
"Qiong Ying, why are you here?"
Latiya asked again in the same tone, her tone had no fluctuations, which made people feel scared from the bottom of their hearts.
In panic and fear, Qiong Ying thought of what Sean had told her.
She swallowed hard, got up and knelt on the ground: "Teacher...I'm sorry...I, I just want to walk around..."
Latiya raised her chin slightly: "So, what did you see?"
Qiong Ying didn't hide anything. Except for taking things from the statue, she told everything she encountered Said it in detail.
After finishing speaking, she looked at the intersection in shock: "Teacher...what on earth is that..."
Latiya's laughter seemed as gentle as before, but among the But it contains an indescribable coldness.
“Oh, just some interesting things, haha, it looks like it scared you.”
Latiya lowered her head, her face in the shadow was inexplicably strange.
Suppressing her racing heart, Qiong Ying lowered her head: "Teacher, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have walked around without permission."
Latiya chuckled: "It doesn't matter, it's my fault for not reminding me. You."
Qiong Ying lowered her head. After a moment, she seemed to remember something. She fumbled for a while and took out a small device.
“Teacher, this is something I found on the statue. I don’t know what it is...but it doesn’t feel right.”
After taking the device, Latiya's eyes narrowed slightly.
After a moment, she chuckled, put the device away and said, "Qiong Ying, you did me a favor."
"Teacher?"
"Oh, you will know in the future. Okay, let's go out. It will be fine if you follow me."
"Okay, okay, teacher."
Sure enough, following Latiya, the flowers, grass and shadows became normal, and they walked out of the yard within a few steps.
"Qiong Ying, I won't let you have dinner today. Come and cook with me next time."
Latiya smiled softly, but the implication was already very serious. It's obvious.
Qiong Ying didn’t want to stay here for a long time. She nodded to show that she understood, and then quickly left this place that scared her.
When Qiong Ying's figure walked away, Latiya's eyes gradually became cold.
She blended into the shadows, and when she reappeared she was already next to the statue.
Walking around the statue, she took out the device Qiong Ying gave her.
"Mikasa group..." muttering to herself, Latiya casually crushed the device.
She looked up at the statue, a twisted look flashing in her eyes.
"Very good...very good..."
——
The door opened, and Sean turned around and smiled: "Back?"
The pale Qiong Ying nodded, and she handed the small box to Sean: " This should be it..."
However, Sean immediately noticed something was wrong with Qiong Ying.
He didn't even look at the box and directly took Qiong Ying into his arms.
"How are you?" His voice was solemn and worried.
Qiong Ying took a deep breath, and Sean's worry turned into comfort amid her fear.
With some happiness and some fear, she put her head close to the man's chest. The girl gently shook her head: "Something happened, but it's okay now."
