Chapter 369: Chapter 369: The Secret Under the Old Locust Tree (1) Chapter 369: Chapter 369: The Secret Under the Old Locust Tree (1) Then, a black box was revealed inside.
Gu Qiaoqiao felt something was off, feeling a chill down her spine.
Why did this black box feel more like a little coffin?
It wasn’t just resemblance, it was!
Everyone was stunned.
Gu Tianfeng was about to step forward to take it, “Qiaoqiao, give me the item.”
“Dad, it’s okay.”
Suppressing her unknown fears, Gu Qiaoqiao took a deep breath, her expression solemn, and waved her hand at the others, signaling them to stay back.
Then, she pressed down on one side with her hand and, with a forceful push, opened the little black coffin made of black catalpa wood.
The contents inside gave Gu Qiaoqiao a fright.
A piece of yellow paper filled with strange symbols, pinned down at the corners by four small red wooden swords.
Upon seeing the little black coffin, Old Patriarch Gu’s face became as gloomy as the sky at that moment.
He stepped forward, his sharp gaze fixating intently on the little black coffin in Qiaoqiao’s hands.
He had lived here for several decades, though he had left for a few years during that special period.
This old locust tree was a symbol of Gu Garden.
It had connotations of good fortune and wealth.
But why was there a little black coffin buried under this tree?
He reached out his hand and said gravely, “Qiaoqiao, give me the item.”
After sensing for a moment, Gu Qiaoqiao placed the unsettling item on the concrete platform of the fence and spoke to the Old Patriarch, “Just look at it like this; the aura on it is not great.”
She was fine and not affected, but others might not be.
Gu Qingfeng’s outstretched hand paused for a moment before finally retracting.
It wasn’t that he was afraid for himself.
He was worried it might affect his family members.
After all, his and Qiaoqiao’s hands were not comparable.
However, he still pulled Gu Qiaoqiao aside, keeping her from tampering with the little coffin any further, gritted his teeth, and instructed Uncle Gu, “You go to the Zhang Family now and bring that old guy from their family over to me.”
Zhang Family?
Instinctively, Gu Qiaoqiao thought of the North Third Gate that Qin Yize mentioned last night.
Uncle Gu hurried off.
At this moment, under the tree, it was eerily quiet.
Everyone knew that this item was definitely not something good.
They all wondered, who had buried this thing here?
How many years had it been buried?
And, most importantly, what was it buried here for?
Gu Tianfeng whispered to the Old Patriarch.
Soon after, Uncle Gu hurriedly approached with an elderly man whose hair was grizzled.
He wore a washed-out sweatshirt and a pair of cloth shoes, the edges of which were worn to fraying.
His face was all wrinkled.
His eyes also seemed very murky.
If not for Uncle Gu’s introduction, Gu Qiaoqiao would not have known that this man, about sixty years old, was the leader of the Heavenly Master Sect.
She even thought he was just some security guard at a company.
Gu Qiaoqiao wondered if this was not the same security guard Qin Yize mentioned.
But, the man who just a moment ago looked dejected and aged as if life had worn him down, there was a flash of brilliance in his eyes upon seeing the little black coffin.
Taking a few quick steps forward, he then made several dazzling hand gestures before picking up the black coffin.
First, he glanced at the exterior, then turned his attention to the four red wooden swords inside.
After a few moments, he exclaimed, “Actually, it’s such a malicious curse!”
Curse?
“What is it?” Old Patriarch Gu asked sternly.
“Curse of Extinction!”
