Chapter 125 Eyes in the Corner
"when I was young."
Then Wu Xie talked about some of his previous memories.
There were debris all around, and a lot of things were scattered on the ground. There were also many traces of buildings and some tents that had been built.
Then sparks began to appear everywhere, and some small flames continued to form. At this time, Wu Xie was groping around and found many people lying on the ground. They seemed to be unconscious, and it was very likely that they had no breath.
Wu Xie was very scared at that time, and he ran around for a long time.
After that, his memory became a little fuzzy, and Wu Xie still feels a little scared when he thinks about it now.
"Come on, follow me to deal with another matter."
After saying that, Wu Xie took Wu Suowei and Bai Haotian towards the soul bottle.
The three of them came to the soul bottle. Since it was the first time he saw it, Wu Suo couldn't help but move closer.
His head was almost touching the glass cabinet. This soul bottle was made of green-glazed porcelain.
It looks very exquisite, with a glass-like brightness all over, as if everything is as good as new.
Wu Suowei walked around the soul bottle and looked at it. Apart from its ancient color, everything else about the soul bottle was ordinary.
Just then, the sounds of two footsteps came into his ears.
One moment was very light, the next moment was steady, and then he was grabbed by Bai Haotian's hands, and her anxious voice rang out at the same time.
"Alas, you can't touch it. Six people committed suicide after touching it."
"Who said I was going to touch it?" Wu Suowei said as he let go of Bai Haotian's hand, then looked at it carefully again. Yes, he was not wrong, there was indeed something wrong with the soul bottle.
It stands to reason that the bubble walls of the glaze are relatively weak and prone to change over time.
It is prone to qualitative changes, aging, regression, atrophy, yellowing, black death and calcification reactions, but this soul bottle has no such characteristics at all.
Then get closer to the soul bottle and look carefully at the structure. It still has basic colors. The basic colors are added and the green glaze is fired. This is a technique from the 1950s.
Wu Suowei couldn't help but complain about the soul bottle that was only discovered thirty years ago. This is so fake. This thing is only thirty years old at most.
If it could last more than forty years, he would immediately stand upside down and have diarrhea.
After watching for a while, Bai Haotian got a little scared and hid behind Wu Xie, looking very cowardly.
But Wu Suowei was different. He directly tore off the talisman and used the key to open the cabinet door.
"Wow~~~ Interesting. Look at this thing, it doesn't collect water anymore."
Wu Xie shone the flashlight on the soul bottle and looked at it carefully. He nodded at the scene and said, "There's really no water. Do you have any water?"
"What the hell???" Hearing this, Wu Suowei was stunned for a moment: "What kind of lewd words are you talking about?"
Wu Xie was unable to react for a moment after listening to Wu Suowei's words: "I say, little brother Wu, what do you think about every day? What are you thinking about now?"
Logically speaking, the change in temperature should cause this magical ancient porcelain to gather water.
However, in order to make it easier for those far away to hear.
Wu Suowei still stretched out his voice: "Yeah, why doesn't it collect water?"
Bai Haotian was no longer afraid now and squeezed past the two of them.
Look at the faces on the bottle mouth above. Water should be collected there, but the eyes are very dry, without any water marks at all.
"Ah, there really is no water."
Wu Xie's expression changed, and he said to Bai Haotian: "Xiaobai, go get a bottle of water, let's try it."
Bai Haotian showed a trace of embarrassment on her face. Seeing that the two were determined to do so, she just reminded them again and again, and finally locked the cabinet and took the key with her.
"Remember, I'm the leader, don't touch me!"
Watching Bai Haotian hurriedly leaving, Wu Xie looked at Wu Suowei with a serious expression, and then he asked, "How is it? Did you find any problems?"
The soul bottle has been sealed by someone, and it cannot be opened at all. There are many ways to prove that it is a fake, but to prove that there is a trick inside, it must be destroyed and then reshaped.
"Western stuff!" Wu Suowei said.
Wu Xie looked thoughtful, but after a moment, Bai Haotian came running over with something in his hand.
Seeing Wu Xie pacing around the soul bottle, Wu Suowei stood beside him as if nothing had happened. She shook the full bottle of mineral water in her hand without any problem, then opened the cabinet and placed the unscrewed bottle of water under the eyes on the soul bottle.
"Do you think it can gather water?" Wu Xie looked at Wu Suowei and asked with interest.
Wu Suowei shook his head: "No!"
"Yes!!!" Bai Haotian nodded firmly. She firmly believed that this soul bottle was filled with evil spirits.
“Let’s wait and see.” Wu Xie looked at the Soul Bottle with an indescribable look in his eyes, as if he had already made up his mind.
The three of them then remained silent, watching the time in the soul bottle in front of them pass by little by little. Wu Suo's eyes gradually became blurry, while Wu Xie was playing with the bottle cap out of boredom.
The lid bounced up and down in his hand. He didn't know how long he had been waiting. Finally, Wu Xie couldn't wait any longer and asked, "How long?"
Seeing that Bai Haotian didn't know what he was thinking, Wu Suowei said, "Hey~~ Little Mouse, Wu Xie is asking you a question. How long has it been?"
"Ah~~" Bai Haotian shook his head: "I was distracted. Let me see, it's been almost an hour."
After stretching his stiff body, Wu Xie opened the cabinet, slowly took out the bottle of water and looked at it carefully.
There was still exactly the same amount of water in the bottle, not a drop more or less. He took the bottle and handed it directly to Bai Haotian.
"You see."
Bai Haotian took the bottle of water and stared at it in shock.
"This is so strange, how come there is no water at all? We didn't dare to bring any water here before."
"Hey, what are you doing?" Seeing Wu Xie stepping on the glass cabinet and trying to go up, Bai Haotian immediately pulled him down.
Wu Xie, whose arm was held by Bai Haotian, pointed at the lid of the soul bottle with his other hand, turned to Bai Haotian and asked, "Can this lid be opened?"
"No, no, can't touch it, hold it!" Bai Haotian pulled Wu Xie back.
After handing the bottle of mineral water to Wu Xie, she hurriedly locked the glass cabinet and turned around with a serious expression.
"Didn't I tell you before that all six people I met before had problems? Look how much trouble you've gone through just to investigate something."
"Don't investigate this matter."
Wu Xie lowered his head as she scolded him, and Wu Suowei looked at her fierce look.
"This is work, what about you?"
Before she could even utter the words "like a housekeeper", she was interrupted by Bai Haotian. She turned around and glared at Wu Suowei.
"What's wrong with me? What's wrong with my job? Do you want to live or work? If you don't want to live, you can check it yourself. Why are you instigating others to do it?"
What the hell??? Wu Suowei was completely stunned.
The message conveyed in Bai Haotian's tone was as if he and Wu Xie had become a family, and Wu Xie was an outsider.
Wu Suowei finally reacted and savored the situation. He immediately understood that it was none of his business whatsoever regarding the family affairs of the young couple.
He simply leaned against the shelf again and closed his eyes.
Feeling Bai Haotian's concern, Wu Xie smiled: "I didn't suffer this bullying for nothing. Let's go back first."
After saying that, Wu Suowei walked briskly towards the dormitory. Seeing his quickly departing back, Bai Haotian trotted after him.
Wu Suowei, who was leaning against the shelf, opened his eyes and watched the two people walk a short distance away. He tapped the counter with his fingers. The soul bottle is not that easy. Someone is following us. Be careful.
Wu Suowei then put his hands in his pockets and looked at the soul bottle in front of him alone. Wu Xie frowned upon receiving the message, then quickened his pace towards the dormitory.
Just as Wu Xie and Bai Haotian were leaving and Wu Suowei was observing the soul bottle, Du Mingqiu emerged from the middle of the shelf with an uneasy look in his eyes.
And at the edge of his storage area, there was also a pair of eyes staring at Wu Suowei and Wu Xie's back, and these eyes revealed a faint light.
He is the warehouse manager who executes the murder plan in the entire layout, a man who has been tamed into a beast by others.
Anyone who touches the soul bottle will be killed by him unless he commits suicide.
Wu Suowei turned around and glanced at the pair of eyes in the darkness and then looked in the direction of Du Mingqiu.
"Hehe, this eleventh warehouse is becoming more and more interesting."
