Chapter 151 Missing
Bai Jingzhi stood on the stepladder and moved closer to the statue to examine it, but found no trace of any mechanism.
"Forget it, you will know sooner or later."
There was nothing suspicious about the entire armor, so Bai Jingzhi simply didn't bother with it.
In her opinion, the statue showed no other signs of damage, so she left it alone.
Bai Jingzhi used both hands to adjust the statue's armor and straightened its helmet. "Although I don't know which ancient war god you are, just stay here with me!"
"Hiss~" Bai Jingzhi's hand quickly retracted as soon as it touched the helmet, "Is there electricity?"
If there wasn't a gray round mark on the tip of her index finger, she would have suspected it was an illusion.
She was electrocuted to death in her original world. The feeling of electric shock was so unforgettable that it was hard to ignore.
When I put my nose close to my index finger, a faint smell of burning lingered in my nose.
Bai Jingzhi's face was pale, with beads of sweat covering her forehead. She stuffed two pieces of obsidian into the purse Jiang Zhu had given her, muttering to herself:
"Sister Yue'e, let's get out!"
Zhou Yue'e was still holding a handful of freshly plucked grass in her hand, and before she could react, she appeared in the carriage.
At this time, Wei Hongmian was already in the carriage. The sunlight outside was a little strong, so she hid inside.
"What's wrong with you?" Wei Hongmian noticed her daughter's abnormality at a glance. She wiped the sweat off her daughter's forehead with her sleeve and asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Bai Jingzhi shook his head and said nothing.
Wei Hongmian accidentally touched the back of Bai Jingzhi's hand, "Why are your hands so cold?"
"Mom, look!" Bai Jingzhi raised her index finger and motioned for her mother to look.
"What's going on? Where did the paint come from? There's no paint in Guiyuantianju!"
Guiyuantianju was built for three or four years, and they lived in that villa for nearly four years.
All the materials used in the resort are top quality and there is no chance of wet paint.
"Mom, I was electrocuted." After Bai Jingzhi said this, Zhou Yue'e on the side was just confused.
Wei Hongmian became even more nervous, because she knew what her daughter meant.
"What's going on? Didn't I tell you not to use electrical appliances?"
The whole family has the opportunity to start over in life, and they all cherish their hard-earned life.
The mother and daughter were electrocuted to death. Bai Zhao was the one who operated some of the electrical appliances in the house, and this man did not give them any chance to do anything.
"Sister Yue'e, go and drive the carriage and bring my father in. I have something to ask him."
Bai Jingzhi's voice trembled a little, and he leaned on Wei Hongmian.
Zhou Yue'e realized the seriousness of the matter later and hurried out.
This was the first time she saw her cousin lose her composure like this.
"Uncle, please come in quickly, there's something wrong with Jingzhi."
Zhou Yue'e replaced the person and thought while waving the whip.
When she woke up in Guiyuantianju, her cousin was still normal.
It seemed that something had just happened that she didn't know about.
What kind of danger could there be in Guiyuantianju? When my cousin was held hostage, she was not so scared.
Zhou Yue'e secretly made up her mind, "Looks like I'll have to follow you closely from now on!"
"What's wrong? What happened that made you so anxious to replace me?"
Bai Zhao likes driving a cart very much. In his mind, driving a cart is as stress-relieving as fishing.
When I got here, I no longer had to use one hour as two hours like in the original world.
The future was uncertain a few days ago and he was very worried. How could he have the mood to enjoy the scenery while traveling?
My mood is completely different now.
The road ahead is almost clear.
From now on, Wujiyuan will be the place where they take root and the place where they will rise.
Bai Zhao relaxed completely, not as tense as before, and others could easily feel the relaxation.
After he came in, he glanced at Wei Hongmian first, and then heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that there was nothing wrong with his wife.
"You're so old, but you're still clinging to your mother. If someone sees you, they'll tell on you!"
This place is different from the original world. In ancient times, people always paid attention to etiquette. If such a big girl still acted like a spoiled child in her mother's arms, she would be looked down upon.
At this moment, Bai Jingzhi buried her head in Wei Hongmian's shoulder, and Bai Zhao did not see her fear.
Wei Hongmian glared at him. "You are not a good person at all! Sit up straight, there is something important to do!"
"Mianmian, you've gotten younger and your temper has gotten worse. I didn't make you angry, did I?"
Bai Zhao sat up straight, confused.
The couple were fine in the morning, but in just a short while, their expressions changed when they spoke again.
"It's all your fault! Tell me, why did you install electricity on the statue you erected in the square? Jingzhi was electrocuted!"
Wei Hongmian didn't say it too bluntly, for fear of upsetting the girl in his arms.
Bai Zhao understood immediately that his daughter was remembering the scene of the electric shock again.
"I didn't install electricity!" When he came to his senses, he quickly defended himself, "The master said that it was disrespectful to install lights on the statue. The statue and the red tassel spear were brought in to ward off evil spirits, not for people to admire and desecrate."
Wei Hongmian was silent. She knew the whole story of the statue.
The statue had a handsome face, and Bai Zhao specifically asked not to put on eyes, fearing that the statue's face would attract the covetousness of some people. If something bad happened again, it would not be good for the resort.
Bai Zhao pulled the person out of Wei Hongmian's arms and said, "Girl, come out first and tell me what happened."
Pale face, red eyes, and bloodless lips.
He also began to feel distressed and patted Bai Jing on the back, "Don't be afraid, there is no electricity here, it won't happen again."
Bai Jingzhi has excellent psychological quality, and this fear is an instinct deep in his soul.
After the couple coaxed him for a while, Bai Jingzhi's face regained some color.
Bai Zhao took this opportunity to ask, "Tell me quickly, what happened? Why is there electricity in that statue?"
Bai Jingzhi explained the matter in detail. Seeing that he did not believe him, he took out his purse:
"Look, these are the two obsidians I dug out from my eyes.
I just touched the helmet and got shocked.
Smell it, is there a burning smell?"
The purse was handed to Bai Zhao. When he saw such an exquisite purse, his eyes lingered on it for a moment, but he resisted the urge to ask about its origin.
"There is only one!" Bai Zhao took it out and placed it in his palm, but he did not find any difference. "Also, the statue has no eyes."
"No eyes? Then what's going on?" Bai Jingzhi took it in a daze, "How come one is missing? I clearly put it in just now."
Bai Jingzhi didn't believe it and disappeared on the spot.
After a while, she came out again with a complicated expression.
"There's no electricity. Is it my imagination? No, this obsidian is still here."
Bai Jingzhi was a little skeptical.
The stepladder is still there and the position of the statue has not changed this time.
Bai Zhao and Wei Hongmian didn't know what to say, they were also confused.
"Why is the obsidian gone?"
Bai Jingzhi frowned, his mind in a mess.
