Although Xiao Yu looked serious, he was secretly laughing in his heart. The acting level of this ghost corpse was really getting higher and higher. If he hadn't been in contact with him in the early stage, he might have been successfully deceived by him.
"Since Brother Chen is safe and sound, let's continue on our way and try to complete the investigation here as soon as possible."
Xiao Yu made simple arrangements, and then set his sights on the thatched house behind the ghost corpse.
The door of the thatched house was closed tightly, and thick dust was scattered on the door. It can be seen that this house has not been inhabited for a long time.
At the same time, it also shows that the ghost corpse did not enter at all.
Looking around the thatched cottage, Xiao Yu saw the stone table in front of the thatched cottage.
As for the stone bench that matched the stone table, it had been kicked away by the ghost corpse just now, and now only the stone table was left there alone, which looked particularly abrupt.
Xiao Yu only glanced at it before he was attracted by the stone table. To be precise, he was attracted by the star map carved on it.
"Everyone, come here and see what this is?"
Xiao Yu quickly walked to the stone table, touched the uneven star maps on the table with his hands, and said with surprise on his face.
There are many small dots on the star chart, each dot represents a constellation, and some constellations have only one black dot.
Some black spots are about the size of a thumb cap, while others are only about the size of a mung bean. Between the star map, the sun and the moon echo each other, making it look particularly gorgeous.
Xuanwu and others quickly gathered around, especially Qinglong. When he saw the constellation diagram, his face was full of ecstasy.
"This is a stone disk of stars, an ancient stone disk of stars. It's great, great, that such a thing can be discovered."
Qinglong also touched the stone tabletop with his hands, his face full of intoxication, as if he was seeing an old friend he hadn't seen for many years.
"Qinglong has the highest knowledge of stars here. It seems that this thing is prepared for him."
Xuanwu, Zhuque and others all discovered the difference in the stone tabletop, but with their understanding of the stars, they could not discover the mystery of the starry stone disk.
So this thing must be none other than Qinglong.
"Qinglong, do you know what this is? Why can't I understand it?"
Xiao Yu asked softly.
"This is the Ancient Stars Stone Disk. When I was a child, I heard my father say that before paper appeared, people's understanding of the stars was usually recorded on stones, and this stone is the Stars Stone Disk.
The Stars Stone Disk records the earliest astronomical stars and is the most complete among the stars currently. There are 365 stars in it, corresponding to each day of the year.
During these three hundred and sixty-five days, babies were born every day, so each baby had a star corresponding to it.
It’s just that this method of recording constellations was lost a long time ago. I heard my father say it once. As for what it is like, I read many ancient books and couldn’t find it. I didn’t expect to see it here.”
Qinglong was so excited that he was a little incoherent. He touched the star plate as if looking at his own child, and the expression on his face became richer at this moment.
Xiao Yu nodded thoughtfully. If this constellation stone disk was something from ancient times, it must not be an ordinary thing.
Moreover, in his opinion, the stars on the ancient star stone disk are more labeled and denser than those on the Qinglong star chart, and the sun and moon are in the sky at the same time, making them look even more mysterious.
Upon hearing Qinglong's explanation, both Xuanwu and Suzaku had expressions of envy on their faces. Although they had not studied the constellations chart diligently, they could not help but have a look of expectation on their faces when they heard how powerful this thing was.
.
Xiao Yu focused everyone's attention. Logically speaking, this thing should be given to Qinglong.
However, the four great beasts share the same hatred and hate each other. If they were allowed to study the constellation stone disk at the same time, something even more surprising might happen.
Moreover, he did not discover this thing alone, but it is owned by everyone, so this thing must be common property.
"Then how should we distribute this thing?"
Xiao Yu looked at Qinglong and asked with a smile.
After hearing Xiao Yu's words, Qinglong instantly became nervous, and he could feel the tension on his face.
Xuanwu and others also became very serious. No one spoke, they just looked at each other.
"I don't know much about star charts, but since this thing is an ancient thing, I will express my opinion."
When Xiao Yu saw that everyone was silent, he cleared his throat, stood in front of the stone table, and began to express his opinions.
"Qinglong has a higher understanding of the star map than any of us, but I know that several of you have studied the star map, so the four of you will explore the star map at the same time to see who has the higher understanding. Then we will decide who belongs.
What do you think?"
After Xiaoyu finished speaking, he stopped saying anything, but stepped aside and looked at the small thatched cottage.
"Although I don't study the stars very much, this ancient star chart contains the mysteries of heaven and earth, so I want to give it a try."
Among the four great beasts, White Tiger was the most carefree, and he was the first to say it with a solemn expression.
"I agree. My life is approaching. If I can find the secret of a breakthrough in this star chart, it will be regarded as God being kind to me, old man."
After Bai Hu, Xuanwu also expressed his opinion. It was clear that he did not want to give up the star map stone plate.
After Xuanwu, Suzaku, and Qinglong also expressed their own opinions. Among the four, he was the only two who had a deeper understanding of the stars, so they were even less likely to give up on this thing.
"Since you all want to study the Constellation Stone Disk, then let's go back and study together. We can also communicate with each other and make progress together.
That's it, the Constellation Stone Plate will be kept by Qinglong, and you can study it together after we return. This will be of great help to you. Next, let's discuss how to enter this hut."
Seeing that no one had any objections, Qinglong put the Constellation Stone Plate into his Taoist artifact with a face full of joy, and then began to look at the thatched cottage in front of him.
"If the thatched cottage appears here, it must not be a mortal thing. Everyone must be careful. This is most likely the place where the great witch fell."
Xuanwu warned everyone with a solemn expression. Then he waved his hand, and a white spiritual power flew out and turned into an illusory old turtle. The old turtle moved its hooves and rushed towards the door of the thatched cottage.
Only a roar was heard, and the old turtle hit the door directly.
The dust on the door fell to the floor, and the door was pushed open, revealing the simple furniture and furnishings inside.
Seeing that the door was pushed open so easily, the ghost corpse looked a little surprised, obviously feeling that something was not normal.
But the strange emotion on his face was suppressed by him in an instant, and then he looked ahead with an indifferent expression.
