Chapter Seventy-Five: Strange Bones
I raised my head and looked at the top of my head, and found that the inclined hole on the top was more than four meters high from the ground, and the passage was full of slippery yellow mud, and there was no place to focus at all, and it was simply wishful thinking to climb back the way I came.

Although the wound on Uncle Liu's leg did not hurt the bones and arteries, after all, the wound was permeable, and blood flowed out of the wound continuously.
I was very worried when I saw the exposed white bones, and asked Yu Aiting, "Can't you pull out the bones?" ā
"Yes, but ...... Blood gushes out in large quantities after being pulled out, and the wound must be bandaged to avoid excessive blood loss. Yu Aiting said.
At this moment, she suddenly glanced at my father and me, and seemed to have an idea in my heart, and I felt a little uncomfortable, and cautiously retracted my neck.
Sure enough, she pointed to my chest and said, "The clothes in front of your chest are clean, but they can be taken apart and used as bandages." ā
I hurriedly wrapped my arms around my chest, and I was reluctant in my heart, thinking of the past incident when I was rudely robbed of my clothes as bandages by Yang Juan in the Meiling Imperial Mausoleum, and I couldn't let go of it for a long time. Now that it's coming out like this, I'm not going to do it.
I glanced at a few people, and my father's clothes were all mud, and I slipped off on my back, and I guess my back was all on it, but ...... Yu Aiting's clothes are quite clean, probably because she was the last to slip down.
Seeing me staring at her clothes, Yu Aiting suddenly understood my intentions, blushed and said, "Don't even think about it, I'm a girl." ā
Dad frowned and said, "Don't ink, a manly man, what is bare-chested?" Brother Liu is going to be in a coma, hurry up. As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed my neckline, and with a hard pull of both hands, there was a 'snort', and the clothes turned into strips of cloth like last time.
Yu Aiting folded the strips of cloth into regular strips, and then discussed it with her father, and she squatted beside Uncle Liu's legs and waited.
Dad called Uncle Liu a few times, and when he saw him humming and chirping in a semi-unconscious, he said to me: "While he is weak now, it is the best time to pull out the bones, you hold the bones below his thighs, and I will lift his legs up." ā
I nodded, reached out and touched the bottom of Uncle Liu's thigh, and sure enough, I felt a bone, the bone was thin at the top and thick at the bottom, and the bottom was sticking into the soil, which seemed to be connected to something.
Dad spread his hands on Uncle Liu's calves and asked, "Are you ready?" ā
Yu Aiting and I glanced at each other and said in unison, "Ready." ā
Dad took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and counted, "One ...... Two...... Three! ā
At the same time as the word 'three' came out, Dad jerked Uncle Liu's calf up, and I pressed the white bone with all my might, so I didn't let it move with it.
There was a "poof" sound, and the white bones smoothly retreated from the thighs, and at the same time, two large blood holes immediately appeared on the upper and lower thighs, flowing blood like a warm water bag with an open mouth.
Yu Aiting quickly wrapped two consecutive circles with thick multi-layer cloth strips, tested the tightness with her fingers, and then tied a knot, only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.
I observed that something was wrong, and hurriedly said, "No, you see, such a thick strip of cloth is stained with blood, and it is still dripping with blood." ā
Yu Aiting comforted: "Don't worry, this is a normal phenomenon, with the blood-blocking effect of the bandage, the outermost blood will slowly coagulate after two or three minutes, and the blood will gradually stop, and the major arteries will not bleed without injury." ā
I looked at Uncle Liu's mental condition and found that his face was pale without a trace of blood, he was unconscious with his eyes closed, and it didn't look very good.
The bone that hurt Uncle Liu stood in place, and the whole bone was already red with blood at this time, and it looked shocking under the illumination of the miner's lamp.
Dad dug through the dirt at the base of the bone with his short sword, and with a light 'huh', as if he had found something, he sped up and dug up.
The bone looked like a rib, attached to a vertebrae, and some of the rest of the ribs had been broken from the bottom and were haphazardly buried in the dirt.
Due to the shallow burial ground of the bones and the relatively loose soil, it didn't take much effort to dig a skull down the spine.
"I saw that this bone was a beauty before she was born, and it was really a red face, Uncle Liu was smart and smart, and he was still a female corpse." I sighed.
Yu Aiting glared at me and asked, "How can you be sure that this is a female corpse?" ā
Knowing that she had graduated from medical school and had been born into a family of doctors, it was common for her to come into contact with dead bodies, so she asked, "Look at this skull is so small, and the jaw bone is so sharp, isn't it a woman's bone, is it a man's?" ā
Anyway, Uncle Liu couldn't move for a while, so Yu Aiting simply debated with me: "It's too one-sided to judge like you, you see, the shoulder bones and pelvic bones of this corpse are so big, it is definitely a fat man, and you look at the spine and arms, so long, the height must be more than one meter eight, as for the skull, it is indeed small, small and bizarre, anyway, I have never seen such a disproportionate thing between the skull and the body." ā
When she said this, I stood up and looked at the whole body, and indeed as she said, the head was indeed too disproportionate to the body, and on this tall skeleton, the skull was like a baby's head.
"Something is wrong!" Dad groaned.
"This ...... This can't be an ancient tomb, right? This strange scene suddenly reminded me of the adventure in the underground imperial mausoleum in Meiling, and I had goosebumps all over my body, I don't know if it was frozen shirtless, or I felt instinctive fear from the bottom of my heart.
Dad glanced around, shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be, no one will make the robbery hole so steep, in my opinion, this should be a naturally formed hollow layer, that hole is either formed by the rain for a long time, or a certain animal came in, just use this hollow layer as a natural underground nest." ā
"Could it be that this person also accidentally fell to death or starved to death?" I wondered.
While we were speculating, I suddenly felt a chill in my neck, a cold thing against the back of my neck, I touched it with my backhand, and when I brought it to my face, it looked like a piece of flesh, extremely slippery, and it also exuded a disgusting smell of rot.
Dad's face became gloomy, and I looked up at it, and another piece of the same flesh slipped down and landed in front of the two of us.
I suddenly had a bad premonition, my father pointed to Uncle Liu, I immediately understood what he meant, and quickly lifted his body with my father and moved to the corner on the side.
Yu Aiting suddenly exclaimed, ran to our side, pointed to the ground over there and said, "Look...... Over there...... A head fell over there! ā
I took a look, and sure enough, there was a chubby head in the place where we were just now, the head was completely swollen and became a little transparent, it was lying on its side on the ground, its two eyes were facing us obliquely, the two eyes were gray and white, completely dead fish eyes, without luster, but there was a small black spot in the middle of the eyes, which was illuminated by my light, and actually reflected the light like a wolf, and I seemed to see him in a trance...... Blink?!
