Chapter 213: Skeletons
The rat spies of the Rat Priest found a corpse and brought back the walkie-talkie on the corpse.
After Dr. Liang's observation, he found that the walkie-talkie was a product of the sixties and seventies, and the place was already deep in the mountains, and the local residents rarely entered here, let alone anyone still carried the walkie-talkie.
The only explanation is the scientific expedition team of that year.
But how did he end up here? Before I came, I carefully checked the film that Chen Sheng gave me, and the scientific expedition team entered the mountain and kept taking pictures and records.
So, did someone enter here by mistake after the scientific expedition team came out?
Since it is the corpse of the expedition team, we need to take a look at it, maybe it will help us enter the gates of hell.
This canyon has a swamp-like ground with many large banyan trees growing in between. The banyan tree has a saying that the tree becomes a forest, which means that the old banyan tree can grow to the size of a forest. This is the situation in front of us, the banyan trees in the canyon are intertwined, the roots hang down from the trunks and fall to the ground, and there is no boundary between the banyan trees at all.
And the banyan tree grows very tall, and the top is superimposed on top of each other, and the sunlight cannot penetrate the leaves.
Actually, I'm a little worried, even though it's daytime, and the banyan tree is like an umbrella, covering the sun, and it's dark underneath.
The ground is full of rotting leaves, and if you step on it, the methane below will definitely be squeezed out and enter the canyon, where it is easy to be poisoned.
Dr. Liang observed for a while and said, "It's not easy to walk down there, and in the dirt on the ground, there may be all kinds of insects that live on decay, and it is easy to get infected if bitten." ”
The Rat Daoist glanced at her and asked, "Then we won't go in?" ”
Dr. Liang shook his head, and then pointed to the top of the banyan tree, the trunk of the banyan tree is intertwined and dense, and Dr. Liang meant, we can follow the trunk and we can get out of the ground and walk through the canyon.
Everyone thought it was a good idea, so they jumped onto the trunk of the banyan tree with the help of the pine tree next to them.
These banyan trees, which have grown here for at least a hundred years, have thick trunks and hang down, and the roots that hang down to the ground can be used as handrails as we move forward.
Everyone stood in a line, and the Taoist priest of the Rat was at the front, leading us to the depths of the canyon.
His spy rats, all light and nimble, jumped on the dead branches on the ground below, running at the front.
After walking for a while, the light became weaker and weaker, and the sunlight above could occasionally pass through the gaps between the banyan trees, forming a narrow beam of light, which was set on the ground, and more, it was blocked.
Suddenly, Dr. Liang whispered to everyone to stop, and she seemed to hear something.
I pricked up my ears and listened, only the sound of the wind coming from the ground.
Dr. Liang hissed in the direction of a beam of light, as if talking to something.
After a while, I saw a banyan branch over there, as if it had suddenly moved, and when I looked closely, it turned out to be a white python, lying among the banyan trees, just like a banyan branch.
I remember Dr. Leung saying that she could understand the language of snakes, and she must have been talking to snakes just now.
I saw the white python, along the hanging roots, slowly coiled to the ground, and then swam away.
At this time, Dr. Liang raised his vigilance and said, "Everyone acted quickly, just now the white python told us not to go inside." ”
I hurriedly asked, "Why?" ”
Dr. Liang looked at the direction in which the white python disappeared and said, "It said there was a huge creature inside. In the morning, when we went out hunting, I asked the white python to keep an eye on us, and if the creature came back, let us know. ”
Huge creatures, what could that be? I think this white python is very big, and in its opinion, it can be called a huge creature, how big should it be.
And animals generally like to lie dormant at night, mainly because there are too many threats outside during the day, this creature, like a human, actually chooses to hunt during the day, and it seems that it can become a bully in the woods.
But now is not the time for us to think, we need to find the body quickly.
Because the light was getting weaker and weaker, we had to turn on the flashlight and shine it around.
The surrounding area is full of upside-down roots, and the range that can be seen is very small, and it is said that fear comes from the unknown, and we see the dark banyan tree in the distance, and we feel that the huge creature may come back at any time, and we can't help but speed up our pace.
After walking for a long time, the Taoist priest in front of him said that he had arrived, and then stopped.
I saw him shine his flashlight under a nearby banyan tree, where in the middle of the dense roots lay the skeleton of a man, dressed in a modified tunic and tattered, with his skull rolling off one side.
Strangely, the skull is wrapped in a cloth, it is not known if it is a headscarf or what.
There is also a black backpack next to it.
Although Dr. Liang is a woman, she is a doctor after all, and her courage is not ordinary, she climbed to the top of the bones along the roots, and used a stick to pick the backpack, she tried a few times, and the backpack was picked up and hung on the roots.
I saw the words "Geological Bureau" on the backpack, which seemed to be the scientific expedition team of the year.
Dr. Leung pulled out an arrow from the quiver behind his back and plunged it into his backpack.
The environment here is humid, and the backpack is an old-fashioned army-green cloth, although strong, but it cannot withstand the corrosion of time.
The arrow was inserted into the backpack, and Dr. Liang pulled hard, and the backpack opened a large opening, revealing the contents inside.
At the top were clothes, which Dr. Liang picked out with an arrow and threw them on the ground, and under the backpack were daily necessities, including aluminum lunch boxes, white porcelain cups, and a notebook.
Dr. Liang then used his hand, stretched out two fingers, and carefully clipped out the note.
We were all curious, and we all shone our flashlights over to see what it was.
After Dr. Liang got it, he didn't open it at all, but took out a plastic bag from his back, put the notes in it, and said to the curious us: "Let's wait and see if there is anything else around the deceased." ”
So we scattered along the trunk of the tree, like monkeys, clinging to the roots, picking the fallen leaves with the branches, hoping to find something more.
But after looking for a long time, I didn't see anything else, and the backpack was also rummaged through by Dr. Liang again, but he didn't find anything valuable.
It seems that this is the only way, to get a notebook, it can be regarded as a gain, in the sixties and seventies, it was popular to write work notes and thought notes, I hope this notebook, don't let us down.
We were about to leave, and a Taoist priest said casually, it seems that this person used to be quite fashionable.
I saw that he was using the light of a flashlight to shine on the turban on the skull on the ground, which was black and dotted with yellow flowers.
In my impression, in the past, ordinary Chinese did not have the habit of wearing this kind of headscarf, and the white sweat towels in northern Shaanxi were all ty, which is really a bit like what is in TV. In old American movies, there were always hippies, with headscarves and heavy metal music.
The people of the scientific expedition team back then may also have a background in foreign countries, and it is not surprising to wear this kind of headscarf.
So everyone was ready to return, but Dr. Liang remained motionless, staring at the turban.
We were very puzzled, and the Taoist priest called out to Dr. Liang, but Dr. Liang did not answer, but climbed on the root and used the arrow in his hand to pick the skull.
Someone has told me before that doctors are a bit perverted because they are too stressful to save lives and deaths.
Could it be that Dr. Leung also has a penchant for collecting human skulls?
I saw that Dr. Liang picked up the headscarf and put it in front of her, and after careful observation, she raised her head and said to us, "There is a hole in this person's heavenly spirit cover. ”
We were attracted to it again, and saw that there was a hole a few millimeters in size, penetrating the Heavenly Spirit cover, could it be that this person was pricked to death by some kind of needle?
It is also possible that there were people from the Gen organization in the scientific expedition team who were pricked to death with needles.
At this time, Dr. Liang picked up the headscarf again, looked at it carefully, and said, "This is just a rag, not a headscarf, and judging by the way the knot is knotted, it should not be wrapped around the head, as if it is used to cover your eyes." ”
I see that the cloth is folded, only more than an inch wide, and if it is a turban, it should not be so narrow.
It may be as Dr. Leung said, covering his eyes.
Could it be that this person was blindfolded by someone, and then brought here, pierced the heavenly spirit cover with a needle and died?
