Chapter 150: Searching for Someone Alone

I walked around the bottom of the pit in the wind and snow, and I didn't find an entrance to go deeper, and I couldn't help but wonder, where did the people in front of me go?

Didn't they have time to make the way?

I stopped, released my spiritual power to probe downward, and sure enough, I found the clue, there was a corpse in the space under my feet!

I gave up looking for an entrance along the wall of the pit, walked to the center of the pit, and brought up the puppet to help me reach the mud on the ground, and after a while, the puppet grabbed a rope in the mud and pulled it upwards with force.

A square cover was pulled up, revealing an irregular square entrance, and I let go and thrust my trekking poles into the mud next to the entrance.

In this way, when Hua Zeng and Song Hu came down, they would save time looking for it, in fact, Hua Zeng had no need to continue this operation at all, his task was to protect Zhao Ning.

Now that Zhao Ning is missing, he has also given up the idea of resurrecting his girlfriend, and staying away from this troubled water is the wisest choice.

As for Song Hu, I don't know why he participated in this operation, but if they still insist, it is convenient for them to leave a mark.

The walls of the hand-dug holes are embedded with improvised escalators, similar to sewers or water towers, and people have to use their hands and feet to climb down.

I let the puppet go down first, I followed, and the lid was pulled back into place to prevent muddy water from entering the mouth.

This sewer-like passage is about 20 meters deep, and when it goes down to the bottom, the soil is no longer filled with sediment and coral reefs, and the air is relatively dry.

But the horizontal passage at the bottom is obviously not newly dug and looks like it has been around for some years. Modern science and technology are advanced, and this may be because the person in front of him measured that there is a passage underground, and only then did he make a vertical one above this passage, which is exactly at a 90-degree angle to it.

In the transverse passage, the floor is paved with regular long stone slabs, and the walls are flanked by light troughs, which are clearly intended to be used for a long time.

This passage should have been sealed, and although the intersection of the two passages had been cleaned, the walls at both ends of the entrance to the transverse passage had obviously been damaged by external forces.

After about five minutes of walking, I found a dead body. More precisely, a skeleton. Standing against the wall, his clothes were already rotten, and a deformed bone that resembled a rhinoceros horn protruded from his skull.

After just two glances, I withdrew my gaze and continued walking. Then I saw a skeleton standing against the wall every ten meters.

It reminds me of the ancient mausoleum corridor. Could it be that someone once built a mausoleum on the island?

Which hapless kid is it...... Don't you know how serious the consequences of this are?

I had a question in my heart. I walked to the end of the passageway, where half of the sealed stone door was missing, and a door panel had been removed and placed against the wall.

Behind the door is a square square. There is a high platform in the middle, which is very similar to the pyramid of the Mayans, but the Mayans used stones, and this pyramid is made of human skulls!

At the very top of the platform was a severely deformed human skull, and I was not even sure if it was a human skull, because it had three bony horns on the top of its head, sunken cheekbones, protruding back of the skull, and teeth like shark's teeth.

It doesn't look like a human being, the ossuary is about two meters high, and the base is polished smooth stone with reliefs carved on the surface.

I had previously suspected that it was a mausoleum, but now it looks like a place of worship, with many footprints on the ground around the ossuary.

Over the past year or so, the total number of people who have landed on the island, both official and non-governmental, is several hundred, and in addition to the casualties on the way, one-third of them should have finally entered here.

But so far, I haven't seen a single figure, and I can't find the living, so I have to look for the dead, and my mental power is out, looking for the direction where there is a corpse.

There were exits on all sides of the human head platform, and my mental power detected a corpse in the north exit, so I went in to see if I could find any clues.

There were two corpses in the north exit, with several bullet holes in their clothes, and they seemed to have died at the hands of 'people', and I manipulated the corpses to examine them.

In the pocket of his clothes, he found a map, a small notebook, a pen, a lighter, and other odds and ends, all written in foreign language, but not English.

I couldn't read it, except for putting everything I could use back in its place, and going through the remaining two passages, I didn't find anything else.

Back at Rentoutai Square, I paced back and forth around the platform, the space below was so big, where did all the people who came down before go?

Did they just come in here and walk around?

I rested on the edge of the stage and asked the corpse puppet to check for me for possible hidden passages, and suddenly, a song sounded in my ears!

When I turned my head, the skull mouth on the human head stage moved and made a low chorus, which did not scare me, but made me find it funny.

Walk to the front of the stage and enjoy the chorus of human skulls, saying that it is a chorus, but in fact there are no lyrics, it can only be regarded as humming.

"Can you speak? If you know, tell where Sanjiu is! I asked, pointing to the misshapen skull at the very top.

Maybe I'm looking like a psycho right now, talking to a skull, but if there's a glimmer of hope, I don't want to miss it.

Click

The sound of light footsteps came from the passage, and if I carefully discerned, the source of the sound was the passage I came down from.

I sighed as a group of skeletons marched out of the passage, it seemed that the chorus of heads was not showing me the way, but awakening the sleeping guardians!

"I'm in a bad mood, don't mess with me!" I played with a dart with my fingers and squinted at the Skull Guard.

I remember that there were only a dozen skeletons in the passage, how could there be so many at once? But so what, compared with these defective products and corpses, a hundred of them are the top one!

The dead silence of the hall returned to its rightful tranquility after a crackling sound.

I stepped on the broken bones under my feet, aimed at the top of the human head platform and threw the dart in my hand, which hit the deformed skull at the top of the human head platform, and the skull lost its balance and rolled down, falling to the ground and rolling far away.

The corpse puppet helped me pick up this skull and handed it to me, I pointed my fingertips at the center of its eyebrows, and couldn't help but raise my eyebrows and sneer, this thing is still a little useful.

It stored simple instructions and a few memories, but enough for me, the corpse puppet grabbed the horn bone on the top of its head and carried it with me into the passage where the corpse was present.

It turns out that the secret passage is not at the end of the passage, but hidden at the entrance, and it takes advantage of people's habitual thinking, and I was really frightened by it.

Less than a step away from the entrance of the passage, there was a light trough on the wall, and if you looked closely, there was no dust on the light trough, which had obviously been touched not long ago.

I pushed hard against the wall in the light trough, and sure enough, the small piece of the wall receded inward, revealing a secret door half a meter wide!
