Chapter 155: White Bones
Yun Li also picked up a piece and looked at it, with his remaining strength, he naturally couldn't break it, but he could feel that this artificial rock was indeed unique, and said: "This is just an altar with such a big hand, it seems that Uncle Yuan's evaluation of the owner of this tomb is still conservative, and he actually built the mausoleum in such a snow-capped mountain at such a high altitude, this is not an ordinary move." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeใ infoโ
"Let's continue down the passage, the dumb man just went down from here." Wang Chengyuan nodded, so the two of them went down the passage and explored deeper.
Dawn has passed, the distant horizon has been white, indicating that a new day has come, the snow mountain has finally stopped after a night of unrest, there is no longer a large-scale avalanche, just hidden in the ice and snow undercurrent, I don't know when there will be a collective explosion.
In a canyon in the south of Shuangling Valley, Wang Dongcheng and Cai Qi sat in front of a big rock, looking at the mountains and snow peaks in the north, Wang Dongcheng couldn't help but say: "Mr. Wang should still be in the mountains in the north, let's go down the mountain like this, how can we explain to them when we go back?" โ
"Confess? We almost lost our lives, what else do we need to explain, not to mention Mr. Wang's ability You don't know, the two of us are far worse than him, if even he can't settle the difficulties, we will not help in the past, but will become a burden to him, now that the task has been completed, we still hurry down the mountain, and call the people of the search and rescue team to help rescue is the best policy. Cai Qi said righteously.
"That being said, it's true, but I always feel a little uneasy not to go back, Mr. Wang has taken care of both of us in the past, if something happens to him, I won't have a good time for the rest of my life." Wang Dongcheng shook his head and sighed, he felt that this was an act of betrayal, and he knew that he would never betray Wang Chengyuan.
"Do you remember what Mr. Wang told us before I came, now that the location of the target has been explored, we should also retire, not to mention that the kid named Yunli is the eldest lady's classmate, I heard that the two of them still have a bit of that relationship, these few days after contact, I can feel that he is by no means a greedy person who is afraid of death, he will definitely go to Mr. Wang, with him by his side, I believe that Mr. Wang should not have any problems." Cai Qi continued to persuade.
Hearing Yunli's name, Wang Dongcheng was also shocked, recalling his previous performance, he couldn't help but admire: "That kid is indeed extraordinary, although he is young, he seems to know everything, compared to us, it is really not bad at all, if he led the way before, we should not fall off the cliff, let alone scatter." โ
"That is, if he wants to be the fast son-in-law of the Wang family, this is an excellent opportunity, as long as he can take Mr. Wang out of the snow mountain safely, he will definitely be able to win the approval of the Wang family, and you should also be able to see that he seems to be careless, and he looks like he has no quarrel with the world, but his sense of responsibility is stronger than anyone else, and he is willing to risk his life even if he loses a snow wolf dog, and he is not raised by himself, it can be seen that he has such a heart, and he will definitely go to Mr. Wang." Cai Qi saw that Wang Dongcheng began to waver, so he continued to add fuel to the fire.
Cai Qi knew that Wang Dongcheng was an absolutely loyal person and respected Wang Chengyuan very much, and so did she herself, but now that the situation is different, their best choice is to go down the mountain immediately to ask for help. Sometimes in critical moments, women are more resolute and ruthless than men, or the word rational can be used instead.
"Then what should he do, he is Mr. Wang's best friend, we can't just leave him alone, right?" Wang Dongcheng seemed to be persuaded by Cai Qi, but soon they faced the next problem, he said, pointing to the man lying on another rock.
"What to do? We weren't even sure we would be able to get out of the way, and we would take a fainting burden, what do you say, if there is an avalanche again, none of us will try to escape. Cai Qi said coldly.
"That's not good, if we leave him alone, he's in this situation again, I'm afraid..."
"Dumb! Mr. Wang! โ
Wang Dongcheng was about to explain something, when a shout suddenly came out not far away, startling both him and Cai Qi, but the two quickly turned to joy and immediately replied in the direction of the shout.
There is more than one passage in the ancient tomb, most of them lead to some secret rooms that do not know the purpose, Yunli and Wang Chengyuan searched all the way, and finally found the dumb man in front of a round arch stone door, the dumb man knelt in front of the gate and couldn't stop sobbing, I don't know what happened.
The two stepped forward to take a look, and found that the mute was crying bitterly in front of a pair of white bones, and there were two other pairs next to this white bone, in addition to the white bones, there were also some backpacks and other items scattered on the ground, but they were all seriously rotted, and they didn't know why the mute was so sad, Yun Li stepped forward and asked:
"Dumb, what's wrong?"
The dumb man pointed to the white bone in front of him, babbling and choking, but Yun Li and Wang Chengyuan didn't know what he wanted to express, the dumb man stretched out his finger again, poked it up against his forehead, and then pointed to the white bone, after going back and forth a few times, Yun Li understood what he meant, and guessed:
"You mean, this white bone is your big brother? We have only been separated from Lao Yang for a few hours, how did he become like this? โ
Hearing Yun Li's words, the dumb shook his head violently and waved his hand, repeating the action just now, but Yun Li still didn't understand the point, but Wang Chengyuan understood it and said:
"As far as I know, Lao Yang and his family originally had three brothers, and Lao Yang also had a big brother on him, who used to be a guide in this Meili Snow Mountain, but after leading an expedition into the Snow Mountain more than ten years ago, he never came out again, and this white bone in front of him should be their eldest brother, right?"
Hearing Wang Chengyuan's words, he nodded heavily, and then choked up again, Yun Li squatted down and looked at the objects scattered around, although most of them were rotten, but some mountaineering items could still prove that this was indeed an expedition team, and they didn't know what happened to them, and they died in this ancient tomb.
Lao Yang and the dumb pair of guides were invited by Wang Chengyuan's friend, and naturally knew more about their situation than Yunli, Yunli analyzed: "They must have come in from other paths, it is estimated that no one will come down from the ice lake like us, if we find this path, maybe we will be able to get out smoothly." โ
"It's one of the ways, but can you tell how they died?" Wang Chengyuan asked rhetorically.
"This..."Now the electromagnetic force is not used, Yun Li can't use the electromagnetic force to find out more details, just looking at it with the naked eye, he really can't see the cause of death of these three white bones, Wang Chengyuan saw that Yun Li was at a loss, so he explained:
"You see the position of the bridge of their nose, whether it has collapsed a little, and the curvature of the ridge fracture in the abdomen is the same, and this situation will only form when the abdominal cavity is strongly contracted, so they should have drowned alive in the water."
"Drowning? This is also incredible, the water of the entire ice lake has been poured down, and there is no place to drown, and the place where they died should be here, it is unlikely that they were washed by the water after death, is there still a danger of flooding in this ancient tomb? The clouds were puzzled, and this was not good news for them.
"There is this possibility, otherwise we can't find a reason for its explanation, we have to guard against this, and there must be more than three people in the expedition, whether the other team members died in other places in the ancient tomb or did not come in at all, we have no way of knowing, now we can only see walking." Wang Chengyuan frowned and groaned.
"Dumb, we're going to keep going, it's too dangerous to stay here, now isn't the time to be sad, get up." Yun Li is also quite depressed, he can't use electromagnetic power, his heart has been hanging, if they really encounter a flooded situation, their fate will definitely not be much better than these three pairs of white bones, he said to the dumb man.
The dumb man still listened to Yun Li's words, picked up the rag bag next to the white bones, and packed up all the bones of his eldest brother, and the three of them set off again and entered the round arch stone gate, and they were lucky enough to pick up Wang Chengyuan's rucksack behind the stone gate, the rucksack was waterproof design, and the things inside were intact.
After walking in it for a while, there was still nothing new to discover, but the dumb man's backpack was also successfully retrieved, but he had not seen any trace of the snow wolf dog, and he did not know where it had been washed away, and the mute man's mood was both sad and anxious. There are many passages in the tomb, but they are not as complicated as the glacial labyrinth, and there are no mirages here, so they can find the exit without using electromagnetic exploration.
At the exit of the passage turned out to be another glacial lake, this glacial lake was smaller than the one they fell from, it was a miniature version, and most of the water from the lake flowed here. After exploring, they found that the bottom of the ice lake was also hollow, and there was a hidden passage in the corner of the north that led to the lower part, and if it were not for the small whirlpool of stagnant water pouring there, the three of them might not have been able to discover the existence of the entrance to this passage.
Down to the bottom of the glacial lake, there is a large space, the furnishings are also very particular about the burial chamber, the tomb is also connected to many passages, I don't know where it leads, there are obviously people here have been here, the burial goods on the shelves around have been looted, even the large sarcophagus in the center has been opened, the coffin lid and the coffin body are placed in a cross shape, I don't know if someone deliberately did it, the sarcophagus is also empty, the huge tomb looks desolate and grotesque.
"It seems that this ancient tomb has been patronized, no matter how deep it is hidden, no matter how much it is calculated, it is still no match for the prying eyes of those who have a heart, and the two words of interest are really the law that will not change for thousands of years." Seeing this scene, Yun Li couldn't help but sigh.
"Isn't that great? Interest is an indispensable link in the food chain, without which the food chain cannot be formed, without which there can be no higher order, and I say that this should be regarded as a sign of progress. Wang Chengyuan said with a different opinion, saying it so freely that it was impossible to refute.
