Chapter 103: A Strange Ritual
The piles of stones were piled up in a very regular manner, and there were traces of bonfires everywhere, and there were still a few bones on the ground, and the bones were still stained with flesh and blood.
The first thing I saw was that the bones were the gringos who had been dragged away that day.
I retched in my heart, and Wang Ping, who was standing next to me, seemed to have reacted to something at this time, and suddenly turned pale and ran to the beach to vomit.
I didn't have time to pay attention to him, and while I was wary of the movements around me, I carefully observed the pile of rocks in front of me.
The top piece of the pile was a somewhat sharp stone, and it seemed to have a strange triangle drawn with some kind of paint.
There is also a vertical line inside the triangle, which looks like a stick has pierced the triangle in pair.
The footprints around the beach are so messy that you can't tell if it's a person or not.
Wang Ping finished vomiting, his face was pale, and his legs were a little weak.
I patted him on the shoulder and was a little worried: "Can you hold on, if you can't hold on, you can stay away first, help me be vigilant, I'll see for myself." ”
Wang Ping shook his head: "No, in this situation of the jungle, I have to adapt myself to all the states." Don't worry, I'm fine. ”
As he spoke, he covered his mouth and frowned, his face as pale as paper, and followed me back and forth in front of the pile of rocks, observing all the traces around him.
After looking around, I realized that this was supposed to be a strange ritual, but I didn't know what it was used for.
Wang Ping analyzed whether it was possible that the indigenous names on this desert island wanted to eat the prayer that the gringo had done before, or it was a sacrificial activity.
But this is all speculation, but one thing we are more sure of is this group of indigenous people, they eat people.
This incident really hit me a huge blow, and Wang Ping couldn't hold on, this place was too bloody.
Just as I was leaving, I suddenly found a pendant that appeared to be an alloy by the campfire, and it was still stained with blood.
I picked up the pendant and guessed it was the gringo's.
Although we don't have a good impression of these gringos, let alone friends, one of their companions was dragged away and eaten, which is considered a relic.
I wiped the necklace on the beach and put it in my pocket.
But I didn't dare to go any further, for I couldn't be sure where the natives were hiding and watching us.
Wang Ping and I came out this time, although we had weapons in our hands, but that group of natives obviously had a lot of people, and Wang Ping and I were definitely not opponents.
At that time, if it is really hard-hitting, the two of us can only be dead or injured.
So we immediately decided to go home.
When I got back to the camp, I returned the pendant to the group of gringos, who held it and wept again.
Lin Xubo stood on the deck, holding a very strange basket in his hand, looking at me fiercely.
I threw my middle finger at him and turned back to the cave.
I told Xiao Qiang about the discovery of the stone pile and a few of them.
Liu Jiaojiao, who had not spoken, frowned tightly when she heard me say this.
"This is supposed to be a sacrificial event, when I was in college before, I heard our mentor say that some natives have to pray when they eat, just like Christians, and the stone pile you are talking about, since it is not very far from our cave, then I guess this group of natives must be not far away, so it seems that we will not be able to go out casually in the future. ”
That makes things worse for us now.
Because, there is not much food storage in the cave.
During this time, apart from the wolves killed in the last fight, no other large beasts were seen.
And we gave all those wolf corpses to the group of foreigners, and now all that is left in our hands is a few wolf skins, and some dried fish that have long been cooled and sunned.
The wild boar we had caught before had already eaten seventy-seven or eighty-eight, and there were a few short-legged birds on the top of the mountain, but these things together were not enough for us to spend ten days.
In this situation, only when you are well fed can you maintain your physical strength, and only when you maintain your physical strength can you have the opportunity to live in such a cruel place.
I frowned, feeling really helpless at this moment.
Those natives are not afraid of guns, and I can't guarantee that the natives are coming, I can solve one with one shot, and I don't know how many such natives are on this desert island.
If I kill one, two of them will cause public outrage, and our group will still die.
"Why don't I go and talk to Bai Wei and the others about the two of us as a group, so that there are many people, and you can rest more." ”
Xiao Qiang felt a little sorry for me, and whispered next to me and shook my hand.
I shook my head at Xiao Qiang: "You don't need to say anything about this matter, we have already discussed it, the only thing I am worried about now is that the bullets in my hand are already insufficient, if we can't find the camp in time or find a weapon that is more beneficial to us." So we're already on the back foot now. ”
Xiao Qiang was silent, her face was pale, Wang Xiaoxiao bit her lip and didn't make a sound, Liu Jiaojiao and Xu Wei were timid, and one of them was sitting next to him with a wooden stick in his hand in a daze.
All of a sudden, it seemed that our situation had reached a point where there was no turning around.
When I was in a daze, Chen Jian's shout suddenly came from the bottom of the mountain, and I suddenly mentioned in my heart, could it be that the group of natives are here again?
I immediately picked up my gun and ran to the mouth of the cave, and I saw Chen Jian waving at me, seemingly a little anxious.
I looked around and didn't find anything strange, and then I heard Chen Jian yelling at me: "Brother Sihai, Brother Wang said, he seems to have found a camp, you hurry down and take a look." ”
Chen Jian's roar made me a little unable to react for a while.
Wang Ping and I came back together, and I didn't find anything suitable to live on the road along the way.
And now that Wang Ping is back on the ship, where did he go to find any camps to live in?
But since Chen Jian said so, he definitely wasn't joking with me.
I thought about it, and immediately filled the gun with bullets, and carried a dagger, and then carefully went down to the cave to find Wang Ping.
