It turned out that the hole in the snake's head was nailed out by this kind of pole, and I squatted down to take a closer look, and there were traces of that kind of growth around the hole.

This undoubtedly overturned the previous inference, and those giant snakes did not live for a while after being injured, but were nailed here for some reason, and for some reason broke free from their restraints and died outside.

I stood up, the poles in front of me were like the banners of an ancient army, I didn't know what kind of commander such a mighty Legion of Death would have, but I was sure I didn't want to see it.

When I turned around and called Liu Shishi to come and look, I found that he had already come down and was squatting under the pole to take a closer look. ”

I quickly leaned over again, "This pole is empty inside!" He struck the pole with the back of his knife, making a sound like a water pipe.

I reached out and touched it, and my hand was cold, I don't know what kind of metal it was made of.

Liu Dongxi continued: "It's rare to see such a long copper pipe, it must be of great use here, Brother An, let's pull it out and take a look!" ”

When I heard him say this, I felt that something was wrong, this place was strange and inexplicable, there were too many things beyond common sense, and I didn't know what would happen to pull the pipe up so rashly.

But when I thought about it, this tube could nail these beasts to the ground alive, and it was not easy to pull them out.

At this time, Liu Dongxi kicked the skull on the ground, and pulled out the copper pipe with both hands, only to hear a sound of breaking in the skull, and the copper pipe was really pulled up by him!

Liu Dongxi rested the statue on the ground, lifted one end, and took a closer look at the firelight. The copper pipe clearly distinguishes the three colors, the one exposed is the blue-green patina, and the inner part of the head is a dark layer I don't know what it is, Liu Shixin scraped it with a knife, revealing countless small holes that were sealed. There were many fresh scratches around the mouth of the pipe, and the cold glow of copper-tin alloy flashed under the torch. It looks like the mouth of the tube is connected to the ground.

Liu Dongxi's hand pushed aside a few scattered small bones on the ground, revealing a hole, in which was placed a bronze bird statue with complex patterns, and there was a hole in it, and this pipe should be inserted in this hole. Liu Dongxi carefully took it out, this small statue is about twenty centimeters square, each of the four corners has a human-faced bird climbing on it, all kinds of ornaments are intricate and exquisite, I have never seen such a small and delicate bronze, I want to hold it over and play with it.

Liu Shifu didn't avoid it, and handed it over directly to me, and only said: "Brother An, be careful, this gadget can be hundreds of millions of dollars when left outside!" ”

I was so startled that I almost didn't catch it and fell to the ground, but I poured the contents to the ground in a hurry, and an indescribable smell suddenly spread, saying that it was not fragrant, that it smelled or not, but it was very attractive. Liu Shidong took the fire and shone it, and a small puddle of that dark oily viscous substance was splashed on the ground, I almost vomited it when I saw it, this must be something that flowed out of the monster's brain, it was still there after so many years, and I don't know how long this thing has a shelf life.

Liu stuff dipped a little on the ground, twisted the tips of his fingers, and then leaned in front of his nose and sniffed without saying anything.

I asked, "Have you ever seen anything like this?" ”

"It's unheard of, but looking at this method of acting, it is not a Taoist act, but a means of witchcraft."

"Witchcraft?" I didn't know much about this, so I asked.

Liu Dongxi glanced at me and said: "The witch is first-class, it is the ancient Fangshi, there are not many now, and there may be a inheritance in the south." ”

I knew as soon as he said this, isn't that who Xu Fu is? The things used to deceive people said that they were going to ask for an elixir, but they went to the island to spread Chinese civilization. I asked, "Do you know what this is for?" ”

Liu Shiwu confessed: "I don't know, but I think this is for alchemy to collect raw materials." ”

When I heard him say this, I immediately remembered the unique Great Dan Furnace, and the various monsters on it were exactly the same as the ones in front of me. I don't know who used what immortal means to make so many monsters be captured, and even more so that they can survive after being nailed through their brains, and obediently provide raw materials. It reminds me of the current methods of extracting bear bile alive, which I didn't expect to do so many years ago.

Liu Dongxi said: "Brother An, the witchcraft is very evil, it is difficult to say that there is any danger, although thousands of years have passed, but many witchcraft have not failed at all, we have to be careful next." ”

I nodded, and continued walking, although this place was strange and unpredictable, after all, there were people who had moved, and it was not very dangerous to think of it, so it was better to find out than to go back far.

There was no change in front of them, and there were all kinds of monsters lying along the way, of various sizes, and even humanoid skeletons, but without exception, they all had a copper pipe stuck in their heads. In the middle of the process, we also examined a few skeletons, which were not much different from the previous situation, except that the shape of the bones was strange and unheard of. I made a rough estimate of the forty or fifty species I had seen along the way, and the number was more than five hundred, according to the width of the previous estimate on the shore.

By now, I no longer feel scared, and I have gradually become accustomed to all kinds of strange bones and that strange smell, which seems to have some kind of fatigue-relieving effect, and I even feel a feeling of walking more and more briskly after walking in this bone pool for four or five miles. Soon, there are no dense copper pipes in front of you, but all kinds of monsters still exist, and the posture of lying down is the same as the one in front, but you can't see any artificial devices, all the monsters seem to be willing to bow to the ground and contribute their own **.

Liu and I stopped to examine these pious bones. These were older than the previous ones, petrified to a higher degree, and the skulls were intact, but they were all integrated with the stone floor, unable to move a single bit.

We didn't waste much time on these things, and after a little check-up, I hurried away, and I somehow felt that time was getting shorter and shorter, as if something was waiting for me ahead. I often feel this sense of fate, and this feeling is all the more exacerbated by the epic taste of time as I walk through these once-mighty bones. Liu Shixi never spoke, but I believe that he felt the same as I did. Compared to the world in the trees, the life of this relic feels stronger, and it is easier for a small and weak life like me to resonate.

The original flaming torch had lost all light, and suddenly the front became empty, and a dark shadow stood majestically, like a proud and lonely throne, silent.
