"The Heavenly Book, the Heavenly Book hasn't been found yet!"
Shen Luo slapped his head suddenly, finally remembering the most important purpose of his trip, and quickly jumped back into the small boat.
Everything on the boat was piled at the back of the cabin. All the pots and bottles were smashed, and even the short square table had one of its legs broken.
After Shen Luo moved the table, he found the stone box under a pile of fishing nets.
The stone box still remained half-open. After Shen Luo picked it up and pushed it gently, the lid of the box was opened, revealing a bamboo tube about a foot long and a thick book. yellowed ancient book.
The bamboo tube is no more than the thickness of an arm, with only two bamboo joints in total. The whole body is green and green, and it looks like it was cut out not long ago. The ancient book is slightly rolled into a tube shape and placed in the bamboo tube. below.
"Book of Heaven?"
Shen Luo's eyes lit up, and just when he was about to reach out for the ancient book, he suddenly remembered that he had rashly opened the stone box and released the ghost-headed skeleton. He quickly retracted his hand, opened his baggage, took out a few talismans that he had drawn a long time ago, and pasted them on his chest and arms.
These talismans contained both ghost-repelling talismans, evil-repelling talismans, and even two peace talismans. He was not sure whether they would work, but it was better than nothing.
However, due to caution, Shen Luo was not too worried.
The reason is for no other reason than that an ordinary person like Celestial Master can safely obtain this unnamed heavenly book, which shows that there is no fatal danger in it.
It’s just that when Yu Yan talked about this past event, he told it too roughly. I don’t know if he missed it after drinking, or if Yu Tianshi didn’t tell future generations everything. There was no mention of the skull or bamboo tube at all.
After Shen Luo pasted another ghost-expelling charm on the back of his right hand, he finally slowly reached out his hand, carefully grabbed the rolled-up ancient book, and took it out.
When he held the ancient book, he didn't even dare to use too much force, for fear that the ancient book, which looked so old, would be crushed into pieces by himself accidentally.
However, when his palm touched the ancient book, he discovered that it was not bound with paper, but a tough and sturdy leather scroll.
But then, an even more bizarre scene appeared.
The scroll, which was originally only two inches long, suddenly flashed with white light the moment it left the stone box. It doubled in size in an instant, and the rolled pages also unfolded one after another, turning into a book. This is a square book measuring four inches in length and width.
Shen Luo was shocked when he saw this. He didn't realize what was going on for a while. He held the suddenly enlarged ancient book in his hand and looked back and forth on the stone box and leather scroll.
"This..."
He hesitated, so he first put the ancient book aside, then picked up the green bamboo tube and took it out.
The bamboo tube, which was originally only about a foot long, suddenly flashed with white light the moment it left the stone box. It grew three times in size and became three feet long.It's long and holds a lot of weight in your hand.
Shen Luo shook the bamboo tube gently, and there was a "gurgling" sound inside, and there was a faint sound of liquid flowing.
The current bamboo tube is obviously much larger than the stone box in terms of volume.
"It's so big...how to put it in?" Shen Luo frowned and thought to himself.
After that, he doubtfully moved the bamboo tube in his hand towards the stone box, wanting to put it back again.
The moment the bamboo tube approached the stone box, it was pulled by a gentle invisible force. Under a white light, it shrank three times and became a foot long again. Stone box.
"This stone box...is it also a treasure?" Shen Luo felt hot in his heart.
He quickly placed the bamboo tube next to the leather scroll, turned around and pulled out the short square table with broken legs.
He grabbed the two legs of the square table with both hands and held it upside down close to the stone box, wanting to see if it was possible to fit this ordinary square table in addition to the two items originally in the stone box.
As a result, a sharp corner of the square table just came close to the stone box, and white light came out from the mouth of the box again. The soft invisible force followed it, pulling the table out and collecting it. Inside the stone box.
Shen Luo hurriedly went over to check and saw that the square table was lying in the stone box with its legs upturned. It had also shrunk many times and became only the size of a palm.
Seeing this, the surprise in Shen Luo's eyes became more intense. He jumped off the boat in a few steps, picked out a boulder the size of a human head from the rocky beach, carried it back and put it into the stone box. .
Immediately afterwards, he took back the bamboo pennant used to punt the boat, put his head into the stone box, and was also shrunk and put inside.
Shen Luo tried all the earthenware pots, tiles, fishing nets, axes and other broken things beside him, and all of them were able to be included without exception.
"It seems that other ordinary things can be shrunk and taken in as long as they are placed at the mouth of the box." Shen Luo held the stone box in both hands and looked at it from left to right, still feeling incredible in his heart. .
Not only can this stone box contain objects that are several times or even ten times larger than itself, but can be shrunk to a certain proportion, its own weight has hardly changed at all.
Furthermore, Shen Luo compared the shrinkage of different objects and found that it seemed that the larger the original volume, the greater the proportion of shrinkage when entering the stone box.
However, he has no way to verify the final volume of things that this stone box can hold.
"Isn't it a legendary magic weapon that can have such magical functions?" As soon as this thought appeared in Shen Luo's mind, he was shocked.
A magic weapon? That is something that only the master of the temple, Feng Yang Zhenren, and the mysterious master who cannot go out of seclusion can possess.
He really didn’t expect that this trip to find the Book of Heaven would bring him so many unexpected surprises!
Cannot transferThinking about it, if he hadn't accidentally picked up that strange jade pillow and dreamed of the troubled world of demons a thousand years later, he wouldn't have learned about the existence of the Unnamed Heavenly Book from Yu Yan. Now he would probably still be practicing hard in the meditation to strive for it. Practicing Qigong will save your life, right?
For the first time, Shen Luo felt that being haunted by the nightmare of the jade pillow was not entirely a bad thing.
His thoughts wandered for a while before he came back to his senses and cleared out the debris that had been put into the stone box one by one. Then he picked up the yellowed leather scroll again and turned the pages. Looked up.
This ancient book is just like what Yu Yan said. The outer cover is empty and there is no title written on it. It is probably because of this that it was called the "Unknown Heavenly Book" by his ancestors.
Shen Luo flipped through a few pages and couldn't help but frown.
It’s not that there is anything wrong with the content recorded in the book, but that the characters in these ancient books are all in a very ancient silver seal script. Shen Luo has read many ancient books before, and he can’t recognize any of them at all. indivual.
After looking at it for a long time, he couldn't see any clue, so he could only give up and put the ancient book back into the stone box.
"Pop..."
At this moment, a slight sound suddenly came from beside him.
Shen Luo looked down hurriedly and found that the bamboo tube lying beside him was blown by the wind that gradually rose on the river in the evening, and hit the wooden board beside it.
He leaned over and picked up the bamboo tube, and when he was about to study it carefully, there was a sudden crisp sound from above.
A crack opened at the top of the bamboo tube for no apparent reason, and a stream of yellow liquid spurted out, heading straight for the door facing Shenluo!
