Chapter 37: Bones

We continued to walk forward, and there were a few more words on the way, and after Liu Dongxi identified them one by one, he didn't make any new discoveries, just kept shaking his head.

I was so dizzy by his shaking head that I couldn't help but ask him, "Aren't you tired?" Shaking what? ”

Liu Dongxi turned his head and looked at me blankly. I saw that he was so engrossed in his mind that he didn't even hear me talking to him, so I asked, "What do you want?" ”

Liu shook his head and said, "I'm wondering who carved these words here." ”

I didn't think about this thing in the first place, and it was only when he said that I thought about it. At that time, it was not as good as now, anyone who went anywhere could write a certain trip here and the like, there were very few cultural people, it is estimated that there were only one or two in a tribe, and the productivity was not developed, and I don't know how hard it was to carve a word on the stone. The person who can leave a message in this place must have a very high status, and what he writes down must be extraordinary.

The imagination in front of the gate left a shadow on me, and I said to Liu Dongxi: "Do you think that gate is a city gate, and they are here to divinate the evil fortune of the war?" ”

Liu Dongxi nodded and shook his head: "It's not like it, if someone from outside comes in, it will be a little late to divinate in this place, how can there be a divination flag on other people's territory." If the people inside are going to send troops, there is such a spacious place inside, isn't it a bit petty to hold a ceremony here? ”

I heard him say the Word, so I asked him, "What do you think you mean?" ”

Liu said very simply: "I don't know either." ”

I don't have anything to say, let's go, there are only two results of this road, it doesn't matter what has happened, it's all superfluous curiosity. Even if it's dangerous? We always have to move forward.

The two of them stopped talking and concentrated on walking, and the torch went out again, and we didn't have any extra clothes to wrap around the torch again, so we walked forward in the dark, and every once in a while we turned on the flashlight of the police to shine on the road.

It didn't take long for the power to run out, and the two of us continued to grope our way forward in the heavy darkness, and our feet began to become less flat, as if there were simple and irregular steps, and this irregular change in height made us both miserable, and I don't know how many falls in the dark, my knees were already bloody, and every time I moved, I felt blood flow down my calves and into my shoes.

This way of moving forward is undoubtedly very torturous, at the beginning they were able to move forward independently, but later they were no longer able to travel, and the two supported each other as if they were tearing each other apart because people fell from time to time.

In the darkness, human endurance seems to have decreased a lot, and none of us wants to stop and rest, but still struggle to move forward.

Suddenly I bumped into something, and although my whole body was already numb from exhaustion, my stomach was still hurting, and I reached out to touch it, and I clearly felt a corner of the branch.

Could it be that there is still a monster in this darkness preparing to ambush us? I felt weak, the exhaustion of my whole body seemed to disappear all at once, and I tried desperately to break free, but my hand clenched unobeyedly, as if I was afraid that it would run away.

Liu Shifu held me up, and I felt a sudden stop, not knowing what was going on. After all, this guy is old-fashioned, and he didn't ask out loudly, he reached out and groped forward along my arm, and with the other hand pulled out the dagger and followed the hand forward.

I felt Liu Dongxi's two hands groping along my arm, the cold back of the knife against my skin, but it couldn't calm the panic in my heart.

I wanted to warn him but didn't dare, so I poked him with my other hand to tell him that I had something on my hand. Liu Shifu paused, seemed to understand my hint, and decisively touched my hand. When I touched that horn, Liu Dongxi grabbed my wrist like lightning and pulled it back, and at the same time the dagger stabbed out!

The unexpected strange scream or the sound of the dagger piercing into the hard object did not sound, Liu Dongxi's thorn seemed to be pierced into the air, I heard him snort, it seemed to be strange, and then a strong force came from my arm, and I was dragged by Liu Dongxi to a corner and squatted against the wall.

I understood what was going on with this squat, whatever I just touched, it was a dead thing. Just when Liu took my hand, the horn was dragged down by me, and at this moment I squatted and felt that I was holding a stick in my hand, I was really scared just now, but at this time I found the truth, and I didn't feel a little funny so I said: "Don't be nervous, it's okay, it's a stick." ”

Liu Dongxi breathed a sigh of relief, and then said strangely: "How can there be a stick in this kind of place?" ”

I didn't know it, but the surface of this stick was very smooth, slightly curved, with a slightly pointed end and a knotted end, which felt like a bone.

At this time, Liu Shixi blew up the fire fold, I quickly put the bone up to see, only to see that this bone has to be more than a meter long, the thickness of the rolling pin, the surface is hard and smooth, but the inside is full of yellow halo, and it looks as good as a pulp under the firelight.

Liu Shidong groped carefully with his hand, leaned over to his nose and sniffed it, and chopped off the bone with a knife with a dagger. I was startled and blurted out to him, "What are you doing?" ”

Liu Dongxi smiled and said, "Let's be lucky, this bone has a lot of oil in it, and it is just right to use it as a torch." "Show me the severance.

When I saw that this was the case, I saw that the section was lined with dense small holes, and there was a layer of oil shining inside. Liu Dongxi put the fire fold upward, and immediately there were flames coming out, and the surroundings suddenly brightened, and I looked up at this light, and I couldn't help but be speechless.

Before we knew it, we had come to a very large space, with no edge in sight, a few boulders around us, and the intermittent and simple steps in front of us were constantly rising. At the same place where I hit the bones just now, a huge skeleton was piled on the ground, and when I looked into the distance, countless dark shadows bulged on the ground, faintly enough to be seen.

I walked over to the skeleton, took a bone first, and set it on fire. The skeleton had been lying here for an unknown number of years, the parts that had come into contact with the ground had been petrified, the huge head lying on its side on the ground, its empty eyeholes staring uncontrollably upward, its thick spine winding in the scattered ribs, interlocking with a strange beauty.

Isn't this the kind of python out there? How could you die here?

Liu Shixin had already gone over and pulled the skull and spine, touched it in one place, and even took out a dagger, pinned a piece of the snake skull, and handed it to me.

I didn't know what he wanted to do, so I subconsciously took it with both hands. The plate is very complete, with a dispensing yellow color on the edges.

It seems that Liu Dongxi is very familiar with snakes, so he pinned a piece of the sturdy snake head so easily. But what does he want this thing for, I suddenly remembered the Alien vs. Predator movie, did he want me to use this as a shield?
