Volume 2 The Stone Man of the Western Regions The Stone Man of the Western Regions Chapter 40: The Hanging Coffin

We followed the direction of the fat man's finger and looked at the surrounding trees, and then we saw the picture that made people gasp!

I saw that at the top of the trees around us, all of them hung a copper coffin, and there were many patterns carved on its surface, and through the gap in the rain, I saw the patterns on the copper coffin on the nearest tree!

All of them are "ears", the shape of which is exactly the same as that of the "ears" formed by the "ghost clouds" and in the photos of the expedition and the "ears" in our space!

And that's not what surprised me the most, what surprised me was that each coffin hanging from the tree was only about a meter in size! Some hang on the branches, and some stand upright on the branches at the top of the tree.

As long as there are trees growing around, all of them will have a coffin like this! For a coffin of this size, the corpse inside it must not exceed one meter, and if you remove the thickness of the coffin plates on both sides of the coffin, then the corpse is about two or three feet! Judging by the proportions of today's bodies, such a height is only about the same as that of a child under the age of ten, and I thought to myself, maybe it's not that all children are buried here!

The fat man was even more direct, saying that if you look at the size of these coffins, we are in the country of children! I have to find the headquarters of these dwarf countries quickly, with the number of dwarf coffins in front of me, there must be a lot of Snow White hidden in their headquarters, I liked Snow White the most when I was young, it was my dream to marry Snow White, I have to carry back a few as wives!

I told him, marry them as wives and be careful that you get sick, this forest and old forest, even if there is Snow White, it is also a monster!

The heavy rain above our heads was still falling, and the fat man had a lot of flesh on his body, and the area that was watered by the rain was also beaten, and many places began to flow down. Even his pants began to rip up and down his crotch, just like he was peeing. The fat man continued to mumble to me, saying that as long as it was Snow White, no matter what kind of monster it was, grandpa I just liked it, and took off his clothes from his body and began to wring water.

The rest of the men with no bullets in submachine guns were also like fat people, and their clothes seemed to have been soaked in water, and this wet feeling was attached to their bodies, which made people very uncomfortable.

We all learned from the fat man to take off his clothes and start wringing the water, leaving only Scorpion and Zhang Xiuxiu, still holding submachine guns and looking around vigilantly.

After the fat man finished wringing the water on his body, he walked to the position of the scorpion and Zhang Xiuxiu, helped them wring the water, and said in his mouth: "Come, the soldiers on duty have worked hard, this chief went to the frontier today to condole and help you twist the sweat!" ”

After the fog around us cleared, the forest no longer came up from the ground as cool as I had when I first entered, but became so hot and stuffy that we didn't feel cold even if we were all gone, a bit like the summer temperature in the south. I think this change in temperature is caused by these "ghost clouds" in the shape of ears above our heads. At first we were covered in a thick fog over our heads, so when the clouds gathered, I didn't notice the slightest thing. Actually, the thunder was slowly approaching me, but because my attention was all on the snakes and birds, I didn't think about these changes at all.

When we undressed and screwed the water, Xiaoqian also kept twisting the water on our clothes. After being poured by the rain, I found out that Xiaoqian's figure was so good, because it was covered by wide clothes and a medical box before, but now under the soaking of the rain, the two lumps of flesh on her chest fully revealed its original shape! Moreover, after her hair is opened, it matches her figure, making her look extremely bewitching!

I was a little stunned for a while, Xiaoqian finished twisting her clothes, looked up at my eyes, and asked me if I noticed anything wrong with her. I shook my head awkwardly and scolded myself for being rude.

Then avoid Xiaoqian, and instead help the fat man to comfort those "soldiers" on duty! In the interval of my condolences, I asked the fat man if he had ever touched these coffins when he was upside down before, and the fat man replied very simply, no!

It's been a while since we discovered the shape of the "ghost cloud" ears to the dwarven coffins in the trees around us, and the terrifying creatures we were waiting for that scared the snakes and birds never appeared.

So I have a bold guess that the things that scare snake birds are not scary creatures at all, but the shape of these "ears"!

I told the fat man and the scorpion about my idea, and they both thought it made sense. To be on the safe side, we stayed where we were, and waited for a long time, and nothing dangerous happened. The retreating army of snakes and birds never returned. This confirms my conjecture that it should be fine!

We were right in the middle of three trees, and as we moved, the bodies of the five Europa expedition members were out of sight. Originally, the fat man wanted to examine these corpses, but after seeing the five red snake birds that came out of the corpses, the fat man dispelled this idea.

The rain was still falling overhead, and there was no sign of abating, so we had to keep twisting the rain on our bodies. The fat man still helped the scorpion and a few of their vigilant people wrung out the rain on his body after wringing the water on his body, and when he was helping the scorpion wring the rainwater, I heard the fat man ask the scorpion, can this submachine gun still sound if it is soaked in water. The scorpion said, "Haven't you ever seen someone shoot in the water, guns are not afraid of water." The fat man seemed to have acquired considerable knowledge, and began to nod his head incessantly.

During this period, I didn't dare to watch Xiao Qian twist the water on my body anymore, and even when Xiao Qian asked me to help her wring off the water on her back, I closed my eyes tightly, for fear that Xiao Qian would see the physiological reaction, and be embarrassed, fortunately, the fat people didn't find my abnormality. I found that I didn't have any imagination of girls before, and I only started to pay attention to these things after spending a few days with Yiyi in a closed space, and although I was ashamed of Yiyi, I felt that this should be a normal reaction of a man with strong blood.

After such a long wait, we can finally be sure that there will be no more terrifying creatures like snakes and birds around the world.

Compared to the previous dense fog, although the surrounding downpour also blocked our view, it was much better. Around us, the distance to the nearest three trees varied, the farthest was ten meters, and the closest was five meters. Trees like this are all around us, and we can't see the edge as far as the eye can see. It was a tree that I had never seen before, with very few leaves on the trunk, and the shape of the leaves was like the pine needles of a pine tree, but smaller than the shape of the pine needles, and the rain fell on the leaves, through the gaps in the leaves, and directly to the ground. The height of the trees is not particularly high, and the highest is only a dozen meters.

As I surveyed my surroundings, the fat man stretched out his hand to gather us all, saying that we were going to have a meeting. I didn't know what the big fat man had come up with with a bad idea, so I took a few steps towards his position.

The fat man pulled his hair into a big back, spit out a few mouthfuls of rain and said, "I think there is a loophole in the problem that Xiao Su just said!" ”

I looked at him with puzzled eyes and asked him what he was referring to. The fat man said that it was the sentence that I deduced that it was the ears that scared off those "maggots".

The scorpion took the fat man's words and said, he also found a loophole. I looked at both of them in disbelief, and suddenly I realized that my reasoning was full of holes.

The tallest of these trees around us is only a dozen meters, and the copper coffins hanging on them are engraved with the pattern of "ears". If these snakes and birds had retreated because they were afraid of these "ear" patterns, they should have quit a long time ago.

Because many of the snake birds that attacked us climbed down from trees, my conjecture is definitely flawed.

I wondered if it could be because the snakes and birds had bad eyes, and under the thick fog, they didn't see the bronze coffin with the "Ear of the Earth" pattern hidden on the top of the tree.

The fat man said that I was looking for a crooked basis for my own crooked reasoning, the hanging coffin here should always exist, and those disgusting "maggots" have always existed, could it be that they only knew for the first time after they met us cuties today, wow, there is actually an "eye of the earth" that we are afraid of on the top of our heads, which frightens us, and we have to run away!

When the fat man retorted, he really underbeat me with a tone, but he didn't allow me to find fault.

Zhang Xiuxiu, who had not spoken, asked the fat man what he thought was the thing that most likely scared these snake birds after hearing the fat man's analysis.

The fat man thought for a moment and asked a question that made all of us feel a little incredible.

"Is it possible that the coffin above our heads was not here in the first place, and those "maggots" have never seen these coffins! In other words, Xiao Su's conjecture should actually be correct to a certain extent! ”

His idea made me think it was a great possibility, because we hadn't seen any other creatures or anything horrible happening until now. The only thing that can scare these snakes and birds away is this mutated environment!

Looking at the fat man's expression, I couldn't hold back, because I already had a conjecture in my heart to see if I could merge with the fat man's thoughts.

Except for a few people who are still on patrol, everyone else is waiting for the fat man to say his conjecture.

The fat man paused slightly, and then said: "I think that these hanging coffins at the top of the tree should have fallen from these "ghost clouds" above our heads!" ”

This conjecture of the fat man coincides with my thoughts!
