Chapter XXXVII

Chapter XXXVII deals with corpses

1

Uncle Lu leaned in to observe the corpses, there were three corpses in total, all of them were men, and the three corpses had all become skeletons of white bones, but looking at the fragments of clothes wrapped around the vines, these three people should be in a group, and the clothes they wore were all in the style of the early days of liberation, very old clothes similar to work clothes, I can't tell the age, but they should all be in the prime of their thirties, because there are almost no tooth defects.

Uncle Lu looked very carefully, his attainments in autopsy were no less than Yun Ximing, and the two of them studied around those corpses for a long time, muttering a few words in a low voice from time to time, and finally the two of them came over to meet me.

"How? What's the situation? How did he die? I hurriedly asked, and Dazhe was also beside him with an anxious face.

"It seems that it should be the villagers of Chengxin Village in the early days of liberation, it seems that they hollowed out the surrounding burial chambers and set their sights on here, but these few should be unlucky, I don't know why they were trapped here just after the tomb." Uncle Lu explained.

"I don't know why? Are you saying that the two of you together don't figure out how these people died? I asked.

Yun Ximing nodded, "It's true that I didn't figure it out, they only had bones left in their bodies, but they didn't see any bone damage, and they didn't find any signs of poisoning, these clothes, you see ......" Yun Ximing said and lifted the clothes, I don't know if I don't touch them, those pieces of clothes wrapped around the vine man have long been rotten and unshaped, Yun Ximing just gently pinched it, and they all rotted into mud. "Look at these clothes, they are already so rotten, if you look at the environment here, it's so damp, there is no reason why these corpses won't rot, but they are so rotten that only bones remain, it's a bit unreasonable, their bones are placed here like this, it looks like ......"

"It's like something has eaten it." I picked up the conversation and walked over to check on the corpses, and Ji Ziyang also came over, but as soon as he approached the wall, his figure became blurry again, he just glanced at it lightly, and said in my ear, "Look at the neck." ā€

I came back to my senses and quickly checked the necks of the three corpses, and found that there was indeed something strange, the bones on their bodies were not damaged, but there were two shallow depressions on the neck bones of the three people, a bit like they had been bitten by a vampire, and the bite was too heavy to leave tooth marks on the bones. I shared my findings with everyone, and everyone couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Looks like there's some non-vegetarian guys here." Yun Ximing concluded.

"Not a vegetarian? Then you have to protect me, my lords and I have high protein, and I can't cheapen these grandsons for nothing. Dazhe said tremblingly, while already bolting the pistol he was carrying.

"Fatty, don't worry, we won't be afraid of you anymore." Yun Ximing took the opportunity to joke with Dazhe, the two of them talked about each other. At this time, I found that Uncle Lu was gone, and then I realized that he had already walked to the front, looking inside through the dense smiling grass vines.

"Uncle, what did you find?" I leaned in.

Uncle Lu looked back at me, "There seems to be someone over there." He pointed to the place in front of him, and sure enough, there was something strange over there.

"Ximing, you didn't have a flashlight when you came back just now, where's your flashlight?" I asked Yun Ximing, who was standing behind me.

"These vines are so slippery that I didn't hold them steady, and the flashlight fell to the ground." Yun Ximing replied.

"Why don't you pin the flashlight to your waist after you hit the signal, this flashlight flickered and fell to the ground and was weird." I blamed.

"What signal? Two-thirds of the way I got there, the flashlight fell off, and I didn't even have time to use it, and I was about to pick it up when I cut down the rattans and walked over. Yun Ximing said.

"That'...... Now over there...... What is it......" I suddenly felt that my scalp was numb, the location where Yun Ximing dropped the flashlight just now, at this moment, in the rattan in mid-air, a flashlight flashed and glowed, but through this large piece of laughing grass, I couldn't see what was there that was signaling with the flashlight, could someone really be trapped in this tomb? Why didn't he call for help and just shake his flashlight? Could it be that he was wounded? Captain Chen's appearance flashed in my mind again, and I couldn't help but feel a chill.

"Young Master of the Yun family, when you came back just now, did you see anyone?" Uncle Lu asked.

"No, the main thing is that I didn't have a flashlight when I came back, I always came back in the dark, this tomb is very straight, and when I came out inside, I judged the direction by the light of your flashlight." Yun Ximing's voice was also full of doubts.

"What's that...... Without...... I'll give him a shuttle first, and whatever it is, I'll break him too. Dazhe said on the side, and at the mention of being able to make him use the gun, he suddenly became confident.

"Fatty, do you have a bit of humanity, in case this is really a distress signal, you go over, but even if you open a killing ring, do you take human life as a child's play."

"Brother Gongzi, you don't educate me, look at these grasses, how long does it take to grow so full, who can stay here for so long without eating or drinking and not dying? You're talking about immortals. Dazhe was also anxious, raised his hand to the bright place is a shot, Dazhe's marksmanship is worthy of the name, a shot passed, shattered the light bulb of the flashlight, the kind of seeping flickering light is gone. Yun Ximing failed to gain the upper hand this time, and he was unhappy, but he didn't fight back, because we all knew in our hearts that what Dazhe said was right, no one could survive in such an environment, and at this moment, except for the four of us plus an old ghost thistle Ziyang, the ones who appeared in this ancient tomb were by no means good.

"Uncle, what do you think?" At this time, I like to listen to Uncle Lu's opinion most of the time, but this time Uncle Lu disappointed me, and he shook his head.

"I don't have any concerns, either let's send someone over to explore, or let's touch it collectively, no matter what it is, the big guys are together, and they also have a plan."

I think what the uncle said is very reasonable, Yun Xi said that he would explore the road again, but this Jian yƬ was immediately denied by all of us, the road ahead is unknown, I don't know what danger there will be, it is never a wise move to explore the road alone. Second, Ji Ziyang's figure has become a little translucent, and he must not stay in this kind of place for too long.

After making up our minds, we started to act, Yun Ximing and Uncle Lu opened the way in front, constantly cutting down those vines with laughing grass, Ji Ziyang was sandwiched between us, and I and Dazhe were in charge of the vines piling up on the wall. I took the opportunity to observe the vines, which were still very ordinary stalks, not like vines, and I don't know how they grew up on the wall, and some white milk-like juice flowed from the middle of the cut vines. I was thinking that something was wrong when I suddenly heard Dae-cheol complaining on the side.

"Brother Childe, I said if you have a crippled hand, why did you cut so much grass, I don't have anything to pile up."

"I ......" Yun Ximing's words were a little hesitant, "my hand...... I don't seem to have listened to the call......"
