Chen Jie looked at Mao'er's disgusted look, hesitated for a moment, and nodded.
"In that case, then you can go out on an adventure with me."
"You seem to be reluctant."
Mao'er stopped, folded his hands on his chest, and looked at Chen Jie with a sense of scrutiny.
"I'm not forcing myself at all. I'm honored to have you go out with me."
Chen Jie said stiffly, looking at the cat staring at him, Chen Jie opened the corners of his mouth, revealing a set of white teeth, and walked forward.
The cat's eyes followed Chen Jie until Chen Jie walked out several meters away, and then the cat followed lazily.
After walking for a while, Chen Jie suddenly stopped and his whole body tensed up, as if he had entered a battle situation.
Mao'er immediately stopped and walked quietly to Chen Jie's side.
Looking around the front, the cat didn't see anything strange.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
Mao'er thought Chen Jie was teasing her, so she reached out and patted Chen Jie on the shoulder.
"Cat, didn't you hear that?"
Chen Jie looked at Mao'er with a puzzled look.
Mao'er frowned, listened carefully for a while, shook his head and said.
"I didn't hear anything. Are you kidding me?"
Mao'er looked at Chen Jie with a suspicious look on his face.
"I heard the sound of dripping water, please listen carefully."
Chen Jie looked at Mao'er with a serious face.
Mao'er felt that the matter was a bit serious, so he listened more carefully this time.
tick tock, tick tock
Sure enough, there was a sound of dripping water, and Mao'er looked at Chen Jie in shock.
When Chen Jie saw Mao'er's reaction, he immediately smiled and said proudly.
"Well, you should believe me this time!"
"There is indeed the sound of dripping water, but so what?
What do you want to say?"
Mao'er looked at Chen Jie with suspicion, feeling that Chen Jie was just teasing him.
Chen Jie "..."
Hearing Mao'er's words, he was speechless.
"Maybe there are new things here that we can't discover, why don't we go explore them?"
Chen Jie raised his eyebrows and looked at Mao'er, already having an answer in his heart.
"If you want to go and see it, go ahead."
Mao'er looked at Chen Jie with suspicion, feeling that there was something wrong with Chen Jie's brain.
"Okay, okay, let's leave quickly."
After Chen Jie finished speaking, he took long strides and walked towards the direction of the dripping water.
Mao'er looked at Chen Jie suspiciously and followed him.
Chen Jie walked in the direction of the sound of dripping water. After searching for a while, he finally found the location of the dripping water. He took a torch and looked ahead.
"Why are there so many coffins here, all soaked in water?"
The cat saw the scene ahead clearly and was a little puzzled.
"This should be a sacrificial ceremony."
Chen Jie looked at the scene in front of him and remembered that he had seen an introduction in an orphan book before, which was similar to the scene in front of him.
"This is just an isolated island, but there are so many ancient tombs and some mysterious sacrifices. It must have been a very important place before, so that's why so many unique copies have been circulated."
Cat thought this was a bit strange.
"I don't know, but look at there are hundreds of coffins here, and they are all soaked in water. The city is surrounded by a circle, and only the middle coffin looks very luxurious. Could it be that someone is doing some funeral work here?
?”
Chen Jie was a little confused about the routine here and found it very magical.
"Forget it, we don't understand it anyway, so let's get out of here quickly, it feels eerie."
After Mao'er finished speaking, she shivered and leaned closer to Chen Jie unconsciously. As expected, only by leaning next to Chen Jie can she feel safe.
At this time, Chen Jie was quite curious. After hesitating for a moment, Chen Jie comforted Mao'er and said.
"Wait for me here, I'll go inside and check the situation."
After saying that, Chen Jie was about to walk into the water to see what was being sacrificed inside.
When Mao'er heard Chen Jie's words, she grabbed Chen Jie's clothes and exclaimed.
"Are you crazy?
There are dead people here, what were you doing there?"
Mao'er was mentally shocked by Chen Jie's operation. He stared at Chen Jie with his eyes wide open, fearing that Chen Jie would really sneak away without paying attention.
"I'm going to see what happened! Everyone is curious."
Chen Jie looked indifferent, but the angry cat was itching and bit Chen Jie to death.
"You're not allowed to go, I said you're not allowed to go!"
Mao'er said with great momentum, holding Chen Jie's arm tighter with both hands to stop Chen Jie from going forward.
"Cat, I only knew what happened when I walked over and took a look. And although there are so many corpses in coffins here, they are all mummies that have been dead for a long time. Don't worry about it."
Chen Jie didn't expect the cat's reaction to be so great, so he comforted the cat softly.
"I don't care, but you are not allowed to go. Do you know this is a taboo?"
Mao'er was determined not to let Chen Jie go. He stretched out his hand and hugged Chen Jie's arm tightly, refusing to let go no matter what.
Seeing that he and Mao'er were at a stalemate, Chen Jie hesitated and said.
"Okay, since you said you can't go, then you won't go."
Chen Jie plans to come and take a look secretly in the future.
Since the cat is so scared, there is no need for him to scare other girls.
"Chen Jie, promise me you won't come here again, okay?"
Mao'er raised his head and looked at Chen Jie with a serious face.
Chen Jie looked at Mao'er's little face and finally nodded.
"Okay, I promise you, I won't come here anymore."
Chen Jie didn't know why Mao'er had such a big reaction, and felt very strange mentally, but he was too embarrassed to say anything more.
"Chen Jie, don't lie to me. You know my character very well. Don't lie to me. Since you promised me, you must keep it."
Mao'er said earnestly and looked at Chen Jie helplessly.
"Okay, I promise you, I will never come here again."
It was the first time that Chen Jie saw a cat so scared, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
It's all his fault for scaring this girl.
"Thank you, I hope you will keep your promise."
Mao'er nodded and let go of Chen Jie's hand.
"Okay, let's go back. They are probably awake by now."
Chen Jie looked at the cat like a deflated rubber ball, so he couldn't help but stretched out his hand, rubbed the cat's head, and comforted the cat.
"Stop it, your hair is messed up."
After the cat finished speaking, he turned around and walked back in the direction.
Chen Jie looked thoughtfully at the coffin beside him, then finally raised his legs and followed.
Mao'er's reaction just now was a bit strange, even a little too excited, which made Chen Jie even more curious. Did Mao'er know something? Otherwise, how could there be such a big reaction?
It seems that there is still a secret hidden here, and he needs to study it carefully.
