Chapter 204: Ancient Buildings (3rd Watch)

"It's the same dog, and the gap is too big."

Su Ming waited for a look at him with disdain, if the fortune of Wangcai was here, maybe he could really help a little, even if it was a Chihuahua, compared to these two huskies, it could be regarded as 'ferocious'.

The people on the shore looked and felt that time passed very slowly, in fact, it was less than half a minute, and the battle in the water was over, Su Meng dragged the crocodile's tail in his hand, and dragged the dead dog back to the shore step by step.

As soon as the crocodile got out of the water, he was about to turn his head to bite Su Meng, Su Meng roared, followed the muffled thunder in the cave, picked it up with one hand, and turned the crocodile in mid-air in a circle, and smashed it on the ground.

With a muffled sound, a crocodile-shaped pit was smashed into the mud, and the crocodile was no longer able to resist, and lay in the pit with its limbs outstretched, as if it had been mad with a sheep, shaking its claws vigorously.

"You're not going to be an idiot, are you?" Su Ming couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Zhao Yun has opened his eyes today, he used to hear about the book, what Li Yuanba's arms have a thousand strengths, he also thinks it is bragging, the uncle in front of him is purely a living overlord, in ancient times, it was really a fierce general who was ten thousand enemies.

But after all, he was a little older, and after a little surprise, he quickly took out a roll of black tape from his backpack, and asked Su Meng to press the crocodile's mouth and wrap the crocodile's mouth around it.

The crocodile's bite force is amazing, but it doesn't take much strength to open its mouth, even if it is a giant crocodile seven or eight meters long, as long as an adult holds its mouth, the crocodile can't open its mouth to bite. Therefore, after catching a crocodile, the first thing to do is to tie the mouth, not to tie the hands and feet like catching a person.

Of course, for the sake of safety, Su Ming still used a high-strength mountaineering rope to tie the crocodile sturdily.

Three dogs, a wolf, curiously gathered around the crocodile, scratching twice on the crocodile's hard back scale armor with their front paws from time to time, and the husky probably knew that there was no danger, so they simply climbed on the crocodile's back and squatted. He raised his head to the sky and let out a not-so-authentic wolf howl, and his eyes were full of smugness, a triumphant expression of a conqueror.

"You guys come down, don't get killed. This guy is a national treasure! ”

After a little observation, Su Ming and Zhao Yun recognized this crocodile in its early two meters, which should be a national first-class protected animal and a living fossil of the dinosaurs.

In terms of numbers, the Chinese alligator may be rarer than the finless porpoise. There may only be a few dozen wild ones, and their status in the Chinese animal world is almost the same as that of giant pandas. It's just that in this era where everything has to be looked at, the cute giant panda is obviously more popular and has more attention than the fierce-looking crocodile.

The Qinling Mountains and the Yangtze River Basin have been the habitat of the Yangtze crocodile since ancient times, and the last time Su Ming went to save the finless porpoise, when he went to the reeds by the waste lake, he was worried about whether there would be a Chinese alligator inside.

The temperament of the Chinese crocodile is actually relatively docile. Generally, they do not take the initiative to attack people, and even if they do, they rarely kill people.

And Su Meng was lucky, he met a Chinese alligator, so he was not too injured. Generally, crocodiles hunt, and after biting the prey, the body rolls violently and tears the prey apart, but the Chinese alligator is not so violent, and the way of hunting sounds quite funny: after biting the prey, if the prey is a land animal. If the prey is an animal in the water, it is thrown ashore and the prey dies of lack of oxygen.

That's why the Yangtze crocodile dragged Su Meng into the water just now.

And although the alligator has seemingly sharp teeth, it is a groove tooth. Such teeth cannot be used to cut and chew, but can only hold prey like large clamps. Sometimes the prey is too big for it to swallow, so it can only sit on the side very depressed, waiting for the prey to rot on its own...... All in all, if there are more cute crocodiles. The alligator will definitely be on the top.

Su Ming measured it with a tape measure, this alligator has the appearance of two meters and three, which is considered a behemoth among the generally petite alligators. I guess it's also an old guy who has lived for a long time.

Because it is a Cretaceous xenomorph with a history of nearly 10,000 years, the Yangtze crocodile can be regarded as a 'pseudo-divine beast', and in the evolution of 10,000 years, it has almost reached a perfect form, so the mental resistance is so strong. At the beginning, the bloodline of the big baby fish was even longer than that of the Chinese alligator, but it knew how to see the wind and steer the rudder.

The more capable a person is, the greater his temper, and the same goes for animals. At the beginning, the big baby fish confessed in front of Su Ming, and it was very big because it was not as fierce as the Yangtze crocodile; And the Yangtze crocodile was beaten by Su Meng today, also because he was too confident in his own strength and misjudged the situation.

"It must have fallen through the hole." Zhao Yun pointed to the hole on the water not far away, because they just walked up from the water and didn't find any other fish in the water, this waterhole is actually a puddle, there is no food to feed the alligator, it is impossible to live in the hole all the time.

A crocodile that has lost its footing.

"Not necessarily." Su Ming looked back at the depths of the black hole.

After going ashore, I found that the space behind the cave was very large, much wider than the cave where Su Meng lived before, and the wolf's tooth flashlight could not shine at all.

I just don't know what strange creatures will appear in this black hole.

"Let's bandage Su Meng first." Zhao Yun knows everything, and his medicine bandaging skills are much stronger than those of the little nurses in the zoo medical center, so he smeared some medicine to prevent inflammation on Su Meng's injured calf, and then tied his hands and feet neatly with gauze.

Su Ming took this opportunity to shine a flashlight and observe the 'cave' on the shore.

Just now, I saw that there seemed to be a lot of buildings on the shore, and when I got closer, I could see clearly, it was a house.

Houses, lots of houses!

Near the water's edge, the ground was littered with decaying pieces of wood and stones of various shapes, and the nearest houses had either completely collapsed, leaving only one foundation, while others had half collapsed or had one or two walls, as if something had fallen from the sky and shattered them.

A little farther away, there are three rows of houses, about a few dozen of them, leading into the distance. From the appearance, the overall structure is mostly complete, the architectural style guesses, the eaves carved beams, row upon row, should be the Jiangnan architectural style of the Ming and Qing dynasties, biased towards the Hui school.

Three columns of houses, each with a few meters between them, form two natural underground streets.

After Zhao Yun helped Su Meng finish bandaging, he also used a flashlight to shine inside. After seeing the situation clearly, he gasped.

"Uncle Zhao, don't scare me, okay." Su Ming rolled his eyes. The cave was already gloomy, and seeing so many buildings that looked like in zombie movies, Su Ming had always been hairy in his heart, and Zhao Yun's 'cool air' was sucked fast and fast, like sucking porridge, and there was a 'whoosh' sound in the cave, which startled Su Ming.

"No, I was surprised, I didn't expect to find an ancient complex here!"

"So what?" Su Ming pointed to the Hui faction houses in front of him, and asked worriedly: "You say, will there be a lot of zombies suddenly jumping out of the houses on both sides of the street after we walk over?" ”

"It's possible if it's in the studio." Zhao Yun smiled, and then explained: "You don't do antique research, you don't know the value of this building complex. There may not be any particularly valuable artifacts here, but this complex is a microcosm of a village from an era, and a huge cultural treasure in itself! ”

"Uncle Zhao, don't beat me, don't worry, I can't tear down these houses and resell them." Su Ming said.

Zhao Yun shook the flashlight a few more times, pondered for a moment, and said: "I probably guessed, this is not an ancient tomb at all, it should have been a village or town or something, built in the middle of the mountain, and was flooded by a flash flood, it is likely that part of the town was washed down the mountain many years ago, and what we see now is the part that survived the disaster." When we go in, you must be careful, try not to bang any buildings in the town, since they have been washed away by flash floods, after so many years underground, these buildings are already very unreliable, and if you apply some external force, they will easily collapse. ”

Zhao Yun was probably attracted by this rare underground building, and he couldn't wait to go deeper.

Su Meng is better, there is a wound on his leg but it does not hinder his movement, the gray fang can be regarded as helpful, although the Labrador is not big, but it is a hunting dog by nature, and it can also be carried. As for the two hutchis, forget it, it's better to bring them with you, what kind of trouble will these two guys in the province cause.

Su Ming used his spiritual power to probe the old Yangtze crocodile. This guy was beaten half to death and only had one breath left, and he was powerless to resist, it seems that he can't die for the time being, bundle it up and leave it here first, and then find a way to bring it back to the zoo when he comes back, it just so happens that there is a shortage of animals in the aquarium, go back and let it be a neighbor with a finless porpoise and a baby fish or something.

So three people, three dogs, and one wolf, slowly walked into the building complex along a street on the left.

Hearing Zhao Yun say that it was not an ancient tomb, but a mountain village, Su Ming felt that it was even more dangerous! There are at most one or two people buried in the ancient tombs, and if a village is washed away by a flash flood, how many dead people must be in it?

There is also a film called the old corpse of the mountain village!

Zhao Yun was really speechless, and said: "You young people, why can't you be a little materialistic, and the Marxist politics class is in vain?" Do you have to find a few zombie monsters or something, so you don't want to give up? ”

"Because youkai are valuable!" Su Ming gave an explanation that even Zhao Yun really felt was reasonable. (To be continued.) )
