Although it is still a working day, as the largest shopping mall in the university town, this place is always crowded.
This coffee shop on the first floor is a favorite among students because of its wide variety of products and cheap prices. Here are three or five girlfriends sitting chatting and gossiping, and there are a couple crowded there eating the same food by the spoonful.
An ice cream…
Among the many customers, there was only a small round table by the window, and there was only one girl sitting there. She was dressed a bit old-fashioned, with two thick and long braids, and big black-rimmed glasses, but her facial features were clearly visible.
She is very beautiful and has a good figure. If she is well groomed, she will definitely be a beautiful girl that attracts attention.
But at this moment, this potentially beautiful girl was just staring at the table in front of her.
There were two drinks on the table, and a small and exquisite square wooden box was placed in the middle. This complex and exquisite pattern was carved on the lid of the box, like some kind of ancient heraldry, full of mystery and mystery.
"Is this the tool that brings people back to life?"
Following this inquiry, a tall man sat opposite the bespectacled beauty.
"You're here!" Gu Shushu's eyes lit up when he saw Zhang Lang, and he pointed to the cup opposite: "I knew you would come! This is what I ordered for you, I didn't know you liked to drink it.
Whatever, just order what I like!"
Zhang Lang was straightforward: "Why did you come to me?" He was somewhat confused about Gu Shushu's invitation.
This girl has an eccentric personality and does think about supernatural things like resurrection from the dead, but why did she choose to call her Zhang Lang to share this matter?
After all, the two of them were not familiar with each other, and Zhang Lang had clearly rejected her.
Facing Zhang Lang's question, Gu Shushu pushed up her black-rimmed glasses: "Because I know that you are not an ordinary person, and there is someone who you especially want to resurrect her!"
"Oh?" Zhang Lang narrowed his eyes. Could it be that this girl is also related to the altar and even knows his secret?
Thinking of the possible conspiracy, Zhang Lang straightened his back unconsciously and leaned forward slightly. Seeing this scene in Gu Shushu's eyes, the girl laughed and said firmly: "It seems that I guessed it right, you are indeed
…”
Zhang Lang clenched his fists unconsciously...
"You want to resurrect your girlfriend!"
"ha?"
Hearing an unexpected answer, Zhang Lang couldn't help but open his mouth, which made Gu Shushu even more convinced: "It's true! I investigated you. More than half a year ago, you were streaking in school because of girls.
Your friend passed away unexpectedly. Since then, your temperament has changed drastically. You have become taciturn, withdrawn and unsociable... You still haven't gotten over the shadow of your girlfriend's death. You must love her very much and hope that she will be resurrected, right?"
This is really unexpected and reasonable.
But think about it carefully, if Zhang Lang is really still alive, even if there is a glimmer of hope, he will try to resurrect Ye Weiwei...
Just like he wants to resurrect Xiaoya!
"So...you also have someone you want to resurrect?" Zhang Lang looked at Gu Shushu.
"No." Gu Shushu shook his head: "But think about it, coming back from the dead isn't it mysterious, exciting, and fun?"
Zhang Lang was speechless and turned to look at the small wooden box on the table: "What's in this box?"
Gu Shushu shrugged: "I don't know either..."
"Ah?" Zhang Lang was even more surprised: "You haven't opened it and read it?"
Gu Shushu spread his hands: "I tried it, but it can't be opened..."
"Can't open it?" Zhang Lang looked at the box. Although the shape was a bit complicated, it looked like an ordinary wooden box: "Is it locked?"
"I don't know either..." Gu Shushu shook his head: "You can't see any mechanism or anything from the outside. I tried using tools to pry it. It doesn't seem to be an ordinary piece of wood. No matter how you toss it, there are no scratches.
No... I also tried using light, and even asked the subway security inspector to use X-rays, but I couldn't see the structure inside..."
Gu Shushu said this, and it was basically certain that this was no ordinary box. Zhang Lang frowned: "Where did you get this thing from?"
Hearing this question, Gu Shushu's face showed unconcealable pride: "I dug it in the ground in the school woods!"
"Dig it?" Zhang Lang was stunned: "How persistent are you? Can you dig out such a small box in such a large forest?"
"Of course I didn't dig it randomly!" Gu Shushu explained: "The matter had to start a few months ago."
"I remember, it was when I was observing the direction of tree roots and trying to divine the truth about the destruction of the world. Guess what I saw?" Gu Shushu deliberately lowered his voice, and his mysterious look attracted Zhang Lang's attention.
.
"What?"
"I noticed a group of ants dismantling the body of a locust!"
"Um..." Zhang Lang felt like he was being flashed: "It makes sense to see ants near the roots of the tree."
"It's normal!" Gu Shushu pushed up the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose: "But it soon became abnormal, because I saw that the one that was already dead was covered in wounds from ants' bites.
The locust suddenly came to life, kicked its legs and jumped away!"
Zhang Lang narrowed his eyes: "Maybe the locust just faked his death and recovered?"
"Unlikely!" Gu Shushu shook his head in denial: "I have studied that kind of ants. They are small, omnivorous, and not very aggressive. They rarely hunt live insects, let alone such large locusts.
They must have confirmed that the locusts were dead before they dared to eat the corpses!"
Zhang Lang frowned slightly when he heard that, Gu Shushu thought he still didn't believe it, and continued: "This is just the beginning. After that, I often paid attention to the roots of that tree, and several times I found small insects dead there.
How long did it take for him to come back to life... In order to confirm my guess, I brought a dead frog and put it there, and it didn't take long for him to come back to life!"
"Hiss..." Zhang Lang touched his chin. It was not that he didn't believe it. On the contrary, as a reincarnation killer who had adventured in countless worlds, he had experienced the most bizarre things.
He frowned because he remembered that he had indeed seen Gu Shushu squatting under a tree and staring at the ground... So, this girl must not be lying.
"So, you dug this box out from under the tree?"
Gu Shushu nodded heavily: "It's a pity that I can't open it. You are the first person I ask for help. I believe that you, who hope that your girlfriend will be resurrected, will help me unlock the secret of this box!"
"
Zhang Lang nodded. The best way to reveal the secret of the box is to open it. What Gu Shushu said about the box being indestructible and unopenable was just that based on the abilities of ordinary people, Zhang Lang didn't believe that this thing was possible.
Nothing can be opened!
But the question is, if this box really has some mystery, and he opens it by force, will the ability to return to nature destroy the mysterious power on the box?
Just when Zhang Lang was in a dilemma, a familiar figure came over: "Hey, Zhang Lang, why are you here?"
Zhang Lang looked up and saw a tall, beautiful girl with short hair. Who was it but Su Jie?
Because of the obstruction of the chair back, Su Jie did not see Gu Shushu at first. When she got closer and found a girl sitting opposite Zhang Lang, her cheerful smile suddenly froze on her face...
"Oops... I'm sorry to disturb your date..." Su Jie froze for a second, then put her raised hand behind her head and scratched her head with an apologetic expression: "Your girlfriend
She's quite pretty. I can't tell you, you're a dull gourd, but you're pretty good at it... Then you guys chat, I'll leave first..."
After saying that, Su Jie turned around and was about to leave, but Zhang Lang grabbed her hand: "Don't leave yet!"
Su Jie was stunned for a moment, then looked back at Zhang Lang and then at Gu Shushu. She couldn't help blushing and struggled twice: "You guy...let it go...in front of your girlfriend, that's not good."
Bar……"
Zhang Lang didn't notice her embarrassment at all. He just stared at the box on the table and frowned slightly:
