Chapter 228
Kanji, who relied on the motivation of 'penny' and climbed the rope and was busy alone in the dark, stretched out his hand to wrap around Rong Thirteen, and inadvertently looked at the brightness below, and was so frightened that he jumped to Reyimu and hugged his thigh. Reyim and Sabir had never seen so many corpses, and they couldn't help but take two steps back, their faces immediately changing.
The others are okay, Rong Thirteen Lan Drunk has seen the corpse accumulation ground in the tomb of Jun Yihuang, and if it is really said that there are white bones on the ancient battlefield, it is normal to have white bones, but the previous section of the road was weirdly clean, so he quickly settled down after a shock.
But from not having a single body to suddenly appearing countless white bones, this span is indeed a bit large. Lan Zui took out the flare gun and shot it again at the height in front of him, wanting to see the whole picture, but he didn't think that the red light had just flown up for a short time before it hit something, and it swayed and fell downward, only to burst when it was close to the ground.
The height of this illumination is too low, and the luminosity does not diverge far, and it can only shine to a range of five or six hundred meters. However, this was enough, and they found that more than a hundred meters from the city wall, the rocks on the top of the mountain drooped sharply, compressing the height of half of the space. The flare just hit the rock before it fell.
Beneath the walls was not the inner city they had imagined, and the number of bones far exceeded the corpse field they had ever seen.
But the area that could be covered by the light was full of white bones clad in ancient half-body armor. The white bones were interspersed with arrows, the hands and feet were entangled, and the thick shields around โกโก were scattered all over the place, and the gloomy and murderous aura was coming.
The rock continued to slope downward, and at the edge of the light of the flares, another towering wall was faintly visible. The wall was different from the one beneath their feet, the top almost fit the low-hanging rock, there were no battlements, only holes the size of regular doors between the thick walls, and it had the smell of modern buildings.
The left and right sides of the two walls are hidden in darkness, but this ancient city is built in the mountain, and there must be mountains and rocks on both sides, and the two walls are surrounded on all sides, thus forming a semi-natural urn city, and it has also become the burial place of the thousands of corpses underneath.
The feeling of facing dozens of hundreds of corpses and tens of thousands of bones is completely different, and the few people who were originally calm at this moment couldn't help but be moved. From the perspective of the first fight, Rong Jiu was very bold, and it was not until the flare went out that Rong Jiu came back to his senses and said: "I said that when I was on the other side, I always smelled the smell of corpses and didn't see corpses, so I was here for a long time!" โ
Lan Zui and Rong Thirteen cursed at the same time, and the eyes of each other were helpless.
Obviously, if they were to continue their march into the city, they would have to walk through the bones of this urn. Although the risk factor is lower than that of a trench, the psychological pressure is much greater.
When Reyimu saw the expressions of these two people, he cried bitterly in his heart, and said, "Why don't you ...... Or...... How many are we waiting for here? โ
I have never seen such a big scene in the world again, and the thought of stepping on those brittle human bones made Reyimu shiver all over, and his legs were as soft as noodles.
Rong Thirteen rubbed his eyebrows with a headache and asked, "The exits here are all sealed, waiting here?" Waiting to die? โ
"We can go back to where we fell off and find a way to get out of there!"
"We're going to toss a fart out of there! Even if the stone wall is over, the sand layer several meters thick above can't stand the force at all, how can you get on? Can you fly? โ
"I ......," Reim muttered.
He seemed to have seen the shadows of the two women float out of his body before, but when the people turned on their backs, the two shadows were fleeting, and Reyim preferred to be dazzled by himself.
"You don't want to go into the city to find treasure? Frightened by a few dead people's bones like that, or a man, isn't it? Virtue! Rong Shisan rolled his eyes angrily, reached out and touched the ladder leaning against the inner wall, which seemed to be still firm, "Sister Jun, Sister Bai, is it clean underneath?" โ
"It's fine." One of these two is a ghost himself, and the other has seen a lot of ghosts, and he is a little calmer than Lan Zui and Rong Thirteen. If there was a problem, she would have warned her two mornings.
"That's good." Rong Thirteen was relieved, "I'll go down and take a look first, and then you can come down when it's okay." โ
"Be careful." Lan Zui held the safety rope on Rong Thirteen's waist to prevent the old age of the ladder from suddenly collapsing. She looked down at the bones under the ladder that were reflected in the glow sticks and turned blue, and her heart felt a little uncomfortable, and she always felt that the hollow eyes on those skulls were staring at her, and she looked like she was dead.
What's more, why did Beidi clean up the outside of the city when he evacuated, and leave the city behind?
Separated by a wall, as for such a different treatment?
Rong Thirteen went down the ladder, and when he was only two-thirds of the way down, he couldn't help but sigh, because he couldn't find a place to stay any further.
The light of the glow stick is too weak, and the edge of the flare is a dead end. After coming down, he found that the closer he got to the ladder, the more bones were hugging together, and when he reached the foot of the ladder, it was simply a stack of arhats, submerging the ground. Several of the bones remained in the shape of reaching out to climb the ladder, and it was not until he stepped on the ladder that he shook and the bones of the hands shook off.
This made Rong Shisan very surprised, and his vigilance was even higher. Reaching out and pulling out a handful of โกโก from the pile of bones, Rong Thirteen bent down for a while and fiddled, and finally saw the ground.
The ground is soft sandy and fairly smooth after being tamped. However, because of the excessive blood, the yellow sand has turned black-brown and formed lumps. Rong Shisan had only suffered the loss of the quicksand pit, and he didn't dare to be careless, so he poked and poked with the head of the gun, and only jumped down after confirming that he was fine.
But the density of the bones is too great, and no matter how you play with it, you will inevitably slip through the net. Rong Thirteen made a sore tooth click under his feet, and he didn't know which uncle he stepped on. After these bones lost their flesh and blood, they were all balanced with a subtle force, and Rong Thirteen stepped on it, and the bones next to him lost their support, and they suddenly rushed towards him, covering the person in an instant.
Lan Zui saw it clearly, and with a sigh of surprise, he went to pull the rope on Rong Thirteen's waist. Rong 13 took advantage of this strength to pounce out with seven hands and eight feet, and snorted a few times before standing firmly. Being submerged by human bones is definitely not a beautiful experience, Rong Shisan's face turned blue, and it took a long time before he lit the torch in his hand with trembling hands.
They don't know when they'll be able to get out, and the batteries will save when they can go underground. Half of the bag Rong Jiu brought down was full of solid fuel prepared by Lan Zui, with the skeleton of the bed crossbow as the handle, and the strip of cloth wrapped in solid fuel was a simple torch.
Reluctantly waving at Lan Zui, with the warmth and heat of the firelight, Rong Shisan finally regained his composure and began to move forward to investigate. I don't know how tragic the battle of this urn city was at that time, and the bones were densely packed, and there was no way out. In desperation, if you step on it for the first time, you will have a second time, and if you step on it three or four times, Rong Thirteen will be much calmer. At this time, he also walked forward about twenty or thirty meters, and saw that the helmets of these corpses and bones were all cast with the kind of holy beasts that looked like snakes and dragons without exception, and it was obvious that these dead were all Beidi people.
Rong Thirteen vaguely felt that something was wrong, ancient wars were filled in with human lives, so it was not surprising that there were so many dead. But no matter how brave one side is, it is impossible not to have no casualties. But according to what he saw so far, the deceased's side was all Beidi people, what about the side defending the city? If they lose the first wall and retreat to the back wall, the place with the most corpses should be in front of the wall behind, and there should not be so many corpses under this wall.
After walking more than ten meters, Rong Thirteen was even more suspicious, so he simply stopped moving forward, made an open space, and compared it in place.
Lan Zui and Rong Jiu were lying on the wall, seeing that Rong Thirteen had not walked far and began to stand like a sheep, and he should not be called to him, so he couldn't help but be surprised and suspicious, thinking that Rong Thirteen had been tricked. But Bai Suhe and Jun Yihuang swore that the bottom was very clean. Lan Zui thought about it, threw the rope in his hand to Rong Jiu, turned over and jumped up the ladder with him.
Rong Jiu was just about to follow, but was glared at by Lan Zui. Rong Jiu had no choice but to continue to lie on the wall battlement, watching Lan Zui run down at a very fast speed.
There is a way out of Rong Jiu, and Lan Zui walks much more smoothly. rushed to Rong Thirteen's side, just as Rong Thirteen also stopped gesturing, and stood stunned.
Lan Zui tentatively called out "Thirteenth Brother", ready to use his hands at any time to knock the person unconscious and drag him back.
Rong Shisan turned around and saw Lan Zui, and couldn't help but wonder: "Didn't you say that you would come down when I greeted you?" โ
"Looking at your hand and dance, I thought you would be happy to meet a ghost." Lan Zui didn't have a good breath and said, "What were you doing just now?" โ
"It's okay for you to come, I haven't figured it out yet."
"How?"
"Don't you think there's anything wrong with you?"
When Rong Thirteen said this, Lan Zui wanted to purse the corners of his lips. Walking in the pile of white bones that is waiting for someone's height, she feels that nothing is right!
Having said that, Lan Zui still spun around in place.
"I've messed up the surroundings, look into the distance."
Lan drunk turned around on his tiptoes again, and he could see the signs, "There are the most people under the ladder, and they were all desperately squeezing up at that time." Explanation - They were walking from inside the city to outside the city, and they were running for their lives. โ
"That's right." Rong Thirteen nodded, "Your judgment is the same as mine." They were running for their lives, and they were panicking, they were probably hiding from something. First, what I don't understand is that they have all reached the bottom of the ladder, why are they all huddled together and not climbing up? Second, Beidi came prepared at that time, and in terms of difficulty, the first city wall was separated by a ditch, which was much more difficult to break than the second one. Now that they have entered the city of Weng, what is there on the side of Beiyan that can scare the Beidi people like this, so that they can flee in such a panic? โ
