Chapter 179 Cave Skeletons

Hearing this, no one cared about how Ling Zhu'er could talk to a seabird. Attention had already shifted to Chen Sheng's whereabouts. However, in the dark of night, the waves were high and the currents were rapid, and the ships requisitioned were too small to go to sea. Fortunately, among the officers and soldiers who participated in the search, some people used to be subordinates of Su Shao, and told Ying Huo and others that there were several flower boats under the Fu Shao industry that were used for recreation and as war ships, and they could go on long voyages.

Ying Huo discussed with Han Dongqing, and then ordered the ship to be requisitioned. But by the time the ship arrived, it was already dark. Han Dongqing, who had not rested all night, ignored his old age and fatigue, and personally took hundreds of officers and soldiers to the sea to find Chen Sheng's whereabouts.

Chen Sheng fell asleep for a night. It's not a good night's sleep. There are a lot of mosquitoes on the seaside, disturbing people's dreams, and finally Chen Sheng couldn't stand this kind of torture, so he lit a torch and went to the forest to find a few plants, picked some branches and leaves and crushed the juice and applied it to his body to repel mosquitoes, and the pain in his shoulder also affected Chen Sheng's nerves, and when he fell asleep, his brows were furrowed.

But fortunately, the wound that had only undergone simple treatment did not cause thorny diseases such as tetanus, and Chen Sheng himself was surprised and sighed that he was lucky.

After waking up, Chen Sheng and Ah Xiu simply looked for something to satisfy their stomachs, and then took Ah Xiu to follow the place where they found potatoes yesterday. There were such strange crops on a small island, and Chen Sheng was not sure if he didn't figure out this mystery.

In less than half an hour, Chen Sheng came to the valley he discovered yesterday. When Chen Sheng pointed out the potato field that was growing happily and showed it to Ah Xiu, Ah Xiu said very depressedly: "There are so many grows here, you are only willing to eat half of it for me?" It can be seen that Ah Xiu is very angry about Chen Sheng's stingy behavior.

Chen Sheng spread his hands and said, "A potato can be sliced and planted many trees, and one can grow and bear many ...... Have you ever wondered how many potatoes you have eaten that half of the potatoes that have not yet grown? ”

"You're going to be poor." Ah Xiu glanced at Chen Sheng with disdain. One of the two is a county guard, and the other is a female killer, and their identities are very different, but their ages are very close, so there is no place to restrain between words. Chen Sheng said: "This has nothing to do with poor mouths. I'm telling the truth. Chen Sheng stretched out his hands, gestured, estimated the area of the potato field, thought about it, and said: "Less than half an acre, but as a seed, it is estimated that it can also grow dozens of acres of land, give me three or five years, I can more than triple the grain output in Fujian......" Chen Sheng said while sighing: "It would be better if there was corn......

Ah Xiu didn't know what Chen Sheng was talking to himself, but when he saw Chen Sheng mention planting and other sentences, he seemed to be fascinated, and a weird smile appeared on his face. It's very confusing. Fortunately, Ah Xiu is already familiar with such Chen Sheng. But in Ah Xiu's eyes, Chen Sheng is an out-and-out officialdom outlier. Others are officials in order to seek power and money, how can he, Chen Sheng, become an official, and be so concerned about these seemingly inconspicuous lumps?

Ah Xiu threw down the fanatical Chen Sheng and walked towards the valley. Last night, she heard Chen Sheng say that these things called potatoes were planted here, and she didn't believe that there would be people living on this desert island. However, after seeing the land full of potatoes, she could only agree with Chen Sheng's statement. Also curious, she is very interested in the people who live on a desert island. According to her judgment, if there are people living in this valley, it should also be in this valley. The whole island is not protected from the wind, and if a hurricane is wreaking havoc, everything else can be blown away, and only in the more secluded parts of the valley can it survive.

It didn't take long for Chen Sheng to hear Ah Xiu's call: "Chen Sheng, come here!" The echo of the valley was very loud, and it suddenly woke Chen Sheng from his drunken dream.

Chen Shengsan took two steps and drilled into the valley.

Not far into the valley, there is a cave in one of the mountain walls. The cave wasn't tall enough for an adult to bend down into, but it was a bit deep. A closer look at the two walls of the cave reveals obvious traces of artificiality. It's an artificially expanded cave!

Ah Xiu didn't dare to act rashly, and after Chen Sheng came over, he asked, "Do you want to go in and have a look?" ”

Chen Sheng chuckled lightly and said, "This is natural. Maybe there's the answer I'm looking for. After saying that, he lit the torch and walked in slowly, and as he walked, he said, "Light the torch, first, to prevent whether there is poisonous gas in it, and second, to prevent whether there is poison in it." ”

Hearing this, Ah Xiu frowned slightly. Apparently remembering the giant snake she had encountered yesterday, she said in a nervous voice, "Be careful. After speaking, he also pulled out the soft sword of self-defense on his waist and said, "Why don't I walk in front?" Chen Sheng was stabbed by her in his right hand, and he was holding a torch in his left hand, in case there was really any poison, Chen Sheng would be in danger.

Chen Sheng was slightly moved and said, "I didn't expect you to care about me so much." You wanted my life yesterday. ”

Ah Xiu's face sank. Suddenly, I thought of Chen Sheng's untie of her belt on the sea yesterday, her face was slightly hot, she pulled down her face, and said angrily: "Who cares about you!" I'm just afraid that you'll die, and I won't find anyone to talk to me on this desert island. ”

Chen Sheng smiled lightly. No more talking. The air inside the cave is not suffocating, I think there is a place for ventilation. But after walking in, it came to an end. The end is a bit wider than the passage.

At the end of the cave, there was a more musty smell in the air. There was a crude stone bed on the ground, and on top of the stone bed, there was a skeleton sitting upright. The clothes on the skeleton's body have been torn, but the crown of hair tied with branches on the top of the head has not yet fallen out, and from the style, it looks like the peculiar dress of the Yin and Yang families.

Chen Shengben has seen countless dead people, and Ah Xiu is a cold-blooded killer who kills people like hemp. Seeing this skeleton, his expression was very calm. Along the way, they found that there were a lot of dust and cobwebs deposited in the cave, and the two of them had already made a basic judgment, even if someone was here, they were afraid that they would have turned into dry bones, and they were not surprised by this discovery.

"Who is this?" Ah Xiu's eyebrows furrowed.

Chen Sheng spread his hands and said, "You ask me, do I ask him to go?" Chen Sheng snorted at the skeleton. This seems to be a yin-yang family, or a alchemist? Approaching to carefully identify the skeleton, Chen Sheng made his own judgment.
