Volume 1 Tanglin Tomb 18 The ancient formation is trapped, and it will be united and scattered
The words are carved into the trunk of a tree, just below the baby. Just now, their attention was attracted by the dead baby, so they didn't see it.
This is a very strange character, the strokes are complex, the shape is peculiar, if you take out a single one, Mu Chen will definitely think that it is some kind of insect crawling after leaving traces.
"Well, what kind of word is that?"
"I don't know, it's not Chinese characters anyway, I guess it's the script of a certain ethnic minority." Mu Chen sighed, the saddest thing in this world is that the clue is right in front of him, but he doesn't recognize it. "It would be nice if Old Man Qin was here."
"Then let's go back, anyway, there are so many trees here, and there may not be a word on this one!"
"Hmm." Mu Chen nodded, and rarely praised Leng Ye, "Your IQ is okay when you are online." ”
"That's it!" Leng Ye shook his hair in a chic manner, "Who doesn't know in the rivers and lakes, I am famous for my wisdom and bravery!" ”
“······”
Mu Chen was just about to slip down with a tree, but was stopped by the cold night.
"There's movement!" He motioned for Mu Chen to squat down and turned off the flashlight.
A moment later, Mu Chen heard a commotion in the woods, and someone was running out quickly. The chaotic pace and the flickering lights all showed the panic of the group. When he got a little closer, Mu Chen finally saw the appearance of the person who came, it was Yan'er and them! They seemed to be running for their lives at the moment, but due to the limitations of distance and light, Mu Chen couldn't see what was attacking them.
"Yan'er!" Mu Chen yelled twice, and at the same time shook the flashlight vigorously.
When Yan'er saw it, she immediately ran towards this side with people. When they were so close that they didn't need any more directions, Mu Chen and Leng Ye came down from the trees.
Seeing that all the staff were hanging colors, even Yan'er injured an arm, Mu Chen was a little surprised, what did they encounter here, how could they be so embarrassed?
"What about the others, why just the two of you?" Before she could get there, Yan'er asked.
"They were all behind, and we both came out first to find the way. What are you being attacked again? ”
"Tree!"
"Trees?" Mu Chen was taken aback, how could a tree attack a person?
Yan'er made sure that everyone else had followed, "It's hard to say, let's go meet them first, let's talk as we go." By the way, why are you all here? ”
"The tombs are all connected, and the others are dead ends, and there is only one way to here."
"Then you also walked the Nine Palace Sieve Bricks? Are you all right? ”
"Tang Hong died, and everyone else was injured." Mu Chen looked at her, "The matter has come to this, I hope Miss Yan'er can tell the truth, whose tomb is here?" ”
"The intelligence does show that it is Guo Pu's tomb, as for the rest, I don't know."
"If you don't know anything, you dare to risk your life, will you believe me?"
"Believe it or not!"
“······”
"You just said that the tree attacked you, what's going on?"
"I'm in a bad mood, I'm too lazy to say!"
“······” Mu Chen took two deep breaths, okay, you are the employer, you are awesome, I will ask others about it.
Mu Chen asked Yan'er's subordinate Pang Jiayi, and then he learned that their team was originally quite smooth, and they found the passage directly out of the door of death, and later the Jiugong sieve brick, with the fat man and the thin man, also quickly knew how to understand it, but he didn't think that a large number of corpse-eating insects were raised in the corpse oil canal next to him, and finally killed the two brothers.
After descending, they also walked along the cliff at first, but after walking a long circle, they did not find any exit, so they had no choice but to enter the forest.
Unexpectedly, the position of every tree in this forest is exquisite, faintly forming some kind of ancient formation, once you enter, you can't discern the direction at all. Rao is they constantly climbing to the top of the tree to correct, or are they always circling around the periphery, and they can't get in at all.
Later, Yan'er thought of a way, blindfolded her eyes, and didn't look at the road, so she entered a slightly deeper position. However, before he had time to rejoice, vines were drilled out of the ground, covered with suckers the size of copper coins, which, when touched, would break the skin at least and at worst have a small piece of meat.
This vine grows so strangely that even the fat man and the thin man don't know what it is. There were more and more of them, blocking the way forward, and they kept attacking people, so that everyone could not do it, so they had to withdraw in a panic. If it weren't for Mu Chen and the two of them as indicator lights on the tree, I don't know how long they would have to spin inside!
Formations, vines, dead babies, Mu Chen couldn't straighten out the relationship after thinking about it for a long time, so he had to give up.
When I went back, because I was in a hurry, my speed was naturally faster than when I came, and I soon saw Qin Gongzi and them.
As soon as Jiang Shan saw Yan'er, he immediately greeted him, "Miss, are you okay?" ”
She waved her hand, "Miss Qin, my brother's leg is broken, I hope you can help deal with it, thank you!" ”
She was talking about Chen Quanzhong, who had a broken leg when he jumped from here, and no one on their side could handle it, so they had to drag it. Coming out of the forest, Yan'er didn't let her rest for a moment, and was in a hurry to come back, it should be because of this.
Mu Chen pouted, this woman finally has a trace of human touch!
Miss Qin took out small scissors from the medical bag and slowly cut Chen Quanzhong's trouser leg open. The calf bone of his right leg has been completely broken, Bai Huahua's bones are pierced and the flesh is exposed, Mu Chen feels pain just by looking at it, and he doesn't know how he endured it.
Miss Qin handed him a towel, "I'll help you put the bones back now, you bear with it." ”
Chen Quanzhong nodded and put the towel in his mouth. Naturally, there could be no anesthetic in the medicine bag, so he could only resist hard.
Miss Qin slowly pushed back the leg bone he poked out, Chen Quanzhong's whole body was trembling in pain, and beads of sweat the size of beans couldn't stop falling, although he was separated by a towel, his voice still sounded so heartbreaking.
Leng Ye didn't know if he couldn't listen to it anymore, or sympathized with him, and reached out to knock him unconscious. It's okay that at least fainting won't be so painful.
Yan'er also began to deal with her own wounds, her arm was sucked by the vine, missing a piece of flesh, and there were some other abrasions, but they were not serious.
"Miss, what's next?" Jiang Shan asked.
"Rest in place first, and wait for Old Man Qin to wake up."
······
It wasn't anything before, but now that he knew that there was a dead baby on every tree, Mu Chen always felt weird, as if there were countless eyes watching him.
After sitting for a while, this feeling became stronger and stronger, and he felt uncomfortable.
"Cold night, do you have a feeling of being stared at?"
"Yes, I was there when I first came in, but it wasn't obvious, it seems to be getting stronger and stronger now!"
Hearing Leng Ye say the same, Mu Chen's heart was even more uneasy. He climbed up the nearest tree, and the dead baby on it was actually facing where they were! This deformed dead baby has no long eyelids, and the two eyeballs are round! Combined with his condescending position, it seemed that he was spying on Mu Chen.
Look at the tree next to it, the dead baby on it is actually facing the same direction. The same goes for other trees in the vicinity. Because the environment is too dark, I don't know if it's a straight line, and it's hard to tell if the first dead baby I saw is also facing this direction, but I think it should be.
So, why is it so swinging? What does it mean? Or is it because the door is open in this direction, purely to scare the comer?
"I already knew that I would have suggested that everyone move their positions, it is more uncomfortable to be stared at by the dead than by the living." Mu Chen had goosebumps for no reason.
Time passed quickly, and although they hadn't done much, they had been in for a long time. Mu Chen nibbled on some dry food, leaned against the cliff wall, and fell asleep in a daze.
When he woke up, he found that it was dark and quiet, as if there was no one left!
"Cold night, Yan'er!" Mu Chen yelled a few times, but no one responded. Did they find a way out while they were asleep and just walked away? Although I can't figure out why, I have to admit that Yan'er, that woman, can really do this kind of thing!
Mu Chen touched his hand, fortunately, at least he didn't take the bag away, otherwise he would really force himself to die. He reached for his flashlight and shone it around, although there was only powder on the ground, at least he could point in the direction and let himself know where to go.
The ground had already been trampled in a mess, but it was still clear that there were many different footprints stretching straight into the woods. Although these footprints were chaotic, they were very calm, indicating that they were evacuated in an orderly manner, rather than encountering an emergency.
Although he knew that he shouldn't, Mu Chen still felt cold and a little depressed. He followed the footprints and walked forward, and Pang Jiayi had said before that there was no exit at all on the cliffs around here, and if he wanted to get out, he could only enter the forest.
The footprints on the ground quickly disappeared, but it didn't matter, the exit was probably right in the middle of the forest, so just walk inside.
There is a magnetic field underground, and the compass and compass cannot be used, so Mu Chen can only carve marks as he walks. However, it turned out to be useless, and he quickly lost his way.
After a little more dangling, he finally gave up. Climbing to the top of the tree and taking a look around, Mu Chen suddenly had a black line, and he tossed for a long time with himself, and his legs were about to break, and he was only a few dozen meters away from the periphery!
As soon as he thought about it, for a flashlight, Mu Chen felt that something was not right. If you look closely, the dead baby on the tree opposite is actually facing you! I've been walking around here for a long time, it won't be so coincidental, just in the position of the corresponding wooden door, right?
Mu Chen just wanted to go back and take a photo to see if it was here. It suddenly occurred to me that behind my back, there was no cliff at all! After sweeping around, Mu Chen suddenly felt his scalp tingle, and the whole person was cold from the top of his head to his feet, and all the dead babies around him were staring at him!
"Wow!" With a loud baby cry, the dead babies seemed to come to life, leaving their positions one by one and coming towards Mu Chen······
