Chen Tao half-hunched up and climbed in the deep hole, couldn't help but look back at the little sandbag again, thinking of the child's tragic situation, there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.

That's a kind of sadness, no one can predict their own life and death, people live a lifetime, and in the end it's not a pile of white bones under the loess? This child must have experienced unimaginable pain before his death, but at least now, someone has come to clean up the bones for him.

But what about Chen Tao himself?

Chen Tao looked at the endless darkness, if he died here, would someone still clean up the bones for him?

Suddenly, Chen Tao suddenly saw a flower in front of him, and a faint layer of fluorescence suddenly appeared on the small sandbag where the child's bones were buried.

Chen Tao was stunned, and the child was just squatting on top of the small sandbag, draped in a gray coarse cloth robe, and the wounds on his body and face were gone. Chen Tao looked at the immature and somewhat resolute little face with some trembling, the child actually smiled at himself, raised his pale arm and waved at himself!

Chen Tao was completely stunned, and he didn't know what the brain twitched or not, so he even raised his hand and waved it to the child, his eyes were full of incredulity.

"Taozi, what are you doing with your mother! Can you not get nervous here! ”

Seeing Chen Tao standing in front of him for a long time and not leaving, his eyes looked straight behind him, and he waved his hand, Haozi was frightened enough by his strange behavior, and slapped Chen Tao's waving arm away, seeing him look at him was like seeing a neuropathy.

With a pain in his hand, Chen Tao came back to his senses, swallowed a mouthful of saliva dryly, wanted to say something, his mouth was open for a long time and he didn't say a word, and then looked at the cave behind him, there was nothing in the dark, where was the child?

What a hell of a life! Chen Tao muttered in his heart, is he really crazy, or is the world crazy?

"Don't be stunned, let's go!" Ye Rong's whispered urging came from behind him, Chen Tao shook his head, and tried to clear the messy thoughts in his mind, and then continued to walk deeper into the fork hole.

This fork in the hole seems to be an arc resting upward, and after walking and climbing not far, a hole appeared in front of it, and the three of them poked their heads out of the hole to take a look, and they were dumbfounded.

"We ...... It's out again? ”

At this time, the three of them were standing on a huge sand plate, seven or eight meters wide, and to everyone's surprise, the top of the sand table was not flat, and there was a huge hemispherical sand cover in the middle, like a big bowl buckled upside down on the sand plate, and it was only less than one meter wide from the edge of the sand plate.

The three of them stood at the entrance of the cave, stared blankly for a long time, and then stepped on the sand table, and after making sure that the sand table was stable enough, they carefully climbed out of the hole.

Chen Tao leaned on the edge of the sand tray and looked down, and saw that the bearded men were right underneath, and several minions had climbed up the stone wall and were drilling into the hole. Chen Tao The sand tray they were on was about six or seven meters above the ground, and they were bearded

The torch light can be seen that there are several sand discs of about the same size around this sand plate, and there are also several large bowl-like sand and stone lids on them, which are round and smooth like steamed buns.

Chen Tao looked at the sand table like this in the river, I don't know how many are on the stone walls on both sides, could it be that there is such a kind of sand cover on each of them?

What exactly are these bowl-like sand covers?

Thinking in his heart, Chen Tao carefully retreated to the sand cover behind him, and touched it with his hand, although the big bowl-like sand lid was very hard, it didn't feel like a stone. Then he lightly struck it with his short knife, leaving a deep tunnel where the blade passed, and a layer of fine sand flowed down the tip of the knife.

This lid is all made of sand, I don't know what materials are mixed in it, just like mud to make such an upside-down bowl, you can see obvious traces of dry sediment on it, and you can also find that there are layers of ripples on the sand cover, which should be piled up with sand and mud around and around.

Haozi and Ye Rong also discovered this problem, the three of you, look at me, I look at you, no one knows what these covers are used for.

Haozi thinks that these big sand covers should be the tombs of the Tatunan people, there must be something in them, maybe you can take out a few treasures, but Ye Rong shook her head very suspiciously, according to her understanding of the Tatunan culture, the Tatunan people will not be buried in this strange way, even if they are buried slaves, they are buried directly in the yellow sand, like this situation of making a tomb with sand, it is basically impossible to exist.

Chen Tao peeked at the beard underneath, there were holes everywhere on this stone wall, and the gang might not be able to find this place for a while, so he said to Haozi and Ye Rong with his mouth: "We can't stay here for a long time, we have to find a way to escape!" ”

Ye Rong nodded, looked at the bearded man and the others below, and was also frowning and thinking about countermeasures.

At this time, I heard Haozi whisper: "Hey, did you hear any strange sounds?" ”

"Voice? What was that? Chen Tao didn't understand what Haozi was talking about, but looking at his appearance, he squinted his eyes and poked his ears as if he was listening to something.

"You mean bearded voices?" At this time, the bearded people were climbing on the stone wall, and the sound of so many people was infinitely spread and amplified in this empty and quiet river, and it even sounded a little weird.

"No, it's not this, it's another voice, it's small, it's soft, and it's right next to us!" Haozi lowered his voice as much as possible, and Chen Tao looked at the shape of his mouth for a long time before he understood what he was talking about.

That voice is all around us?

Chen Tao stopped talking, pricked up his ears and listened carefully, the river is not closed, the holes and cracks on the stone walls on both sides seem to be connected to the outside, from time to time there will be a trace of a very subtle wind blowing, the wind passes through the gaps, the sound spreads in the various hollows of the river and resonates, and finally converges into a very strange sound, whimpering seems to be countless people whispering.

The bearded man and others are there

Climb up with a knife against the stone wall below, and occasionally you can hear the sound of broken stone and fine sand rolling down, and a few words that Chen Tao doesn't understand, in addition to that......

Chen Tao worked hard to let his heart sink and capture every small movement around him.

Knock Knock Click...... Knock Knock Click...... Knock Knock Click......

As Chen Tao's attention became more and more concentrated, there seemed to be a very faint, dull, but rhythmic strange sound in his ears.

Knock Knock Click...... Knock Knock Click...... Knock Knock Click......

It was a small sound, but it was very dense, and it sounded right next to them.

Strange, what is this sound?

Chen Tao listened carefully to the direction from which the voice came, and as soon as he turned his head, his eyes focused on the large bowl of sand in front of him.

Could it be that there is something in this?

Chen Tao stuck his ear piercing on the thick sand shell, squinting his eyes to listen carefully.

Knock Knock Click...... Knock Knock Click...... Knock Knock Click...... Knock knock click

As he got closer to the sand shell, the strange sound became clearer and clearer.

The sound came from a shell of sand!

Chen Tao and Haozi looked at each other the same, and they both saw a trace of horror in each other's eyes.

There's something in this sand shell, and it's a living thing!

The two of them were frightened, but suddenly there was a strange roar from below, and one of the bearded man's men had climbed onto the sand tray and was reporting to the bearded man below.

Chen Tao and the three of them were lying on the sand table, their position was higher than that of the bearded man, and from their angle they could just see all the movements of the bearded man.

Then the bearded man put his torch in the crevice of the rock, and made the two men on the sandplate lower their ropes, and climbed up the sandbed with Hai Morton and a few other men. A group of people circled around the sand cover above, and probably didn't see anything famous.

It seems that the bearded man did not fully know about Tatunaan's situation, at least the river below was something he had never been to before. Chen Tao guessed in his heart and continued to look at the bearded people below.

The bearded men looked around the sand cover for a while, but found nothing useful. The men didn't know what to say, but they saw Hajmorton pull out the long knife at his waist, slash at the sand cover a few times, and then take the rifle from the hand of one of the people next to him, and smash it at the sand cover with the butt.

Chen Tao and the others were lying on it, the light of the torches was not very sufficient, and the position where Haymorton smashed happened to be blocked by a person, unable to see what was under the sand cover. Seeing that the bearded man seemed to have discovered something, the rest of his men also picked up the butts of their guns, drew their scimitars without guns, and slashed and smashed them at the sand cover.

Knock knock knock....... Knock knock knock...... Qiang Qiang ......

The sound traveled far and wide through the empty and deep river, echoing strangely

The sand cover where the bearded man was located was broken little by little, and the broken mud and sand were rolling down along the sand table, and the originally silent river was suddenly noisy.

"Are these people crazy?" Haozi pointed to the bottom, and then pointed to the big sand cover road behind him in the distance, and said to Chen Tao with his mouth shape while gesturing: "If they come up in a while, we will hide behind this sand cover first." ”

Then, he handed the rifle in his hand to Chen Tao, and he carried it under the stone wall first, holding the nail in his hand and ready to fire.

Haozi is very sure of his flying nail technique, and it may not have much effect on dealing with the big bat with a ghostface, but it is not a problem to deal with people. After giving the rifle to Chen Tao, as long as someone came out of that hole, they would be killed by Haozi's silent nail.

The three of them hid on the sand table in a defensive position, watching the situation below while preventing someone from suddenly coming up.

After a smash, the thick sand shell was finally smashed by the bearded people, and when they saw what was underneath, Chen Tao's faces changed.

"What's that?"
