Chapter 1467: Painted Skin (2)

But I know better in my head that if I don't explore the surrounding environment well, if there is a problem with the goods, the consequences may be worse than death. There is no way back, only to move forward, keep moving forward.

I don't know how long it took, the group couldn't stand the cold, Wang Laosi whispered: "Boss, in such a cold ghost place, how can anyone hide inside." You see, all the way down is going down, I'm afraid this passage leads directly to the underworld. ”

When the people behind heard this, they couldn't hold back anymore and stopped in fear.

"Fart." The leader snorted: "Where is the underworld where ordinary people can reach." ”

"But this place is full of gloomy winds, and it is not much different from the situation of the underworld." Wang Lao Sidao.

The leader turned around and slapped him: "Speaking vividly, have you been to the underworld?" ”

"Thankfully, it's not that honor." Wang Laosi touched his face and said aggrievedly: "But boss, it's not a way to go on like this, you see that the people under him almost have several frostbites." ”

The leader pondered for a moment, and his heart shook slightly: "Indeed, it's not a solution. Okay, let's go forward for another quarter of an hour, and if it still doesn't work, we'll go back. ”

Everyone was overjoyed, and then they reluctantly continued to move forward.

This time, I didn't walk for long, and there was an empty cave in front of me. I don't know how big the hole is, but the light of more than a dozen torches can't get out of it.

When everyone walked in, they only felt that their bodies were warm, and the biting cold in the passage disappeared without a trace in this place. The leader looked around with his torch in his hand. I saw that the surroundings were empty, and the cave walls were smooth, as if there were traces of artificial polishing.

"Is there really a person living here?" He frowned and ordered his men to search the entire place. But Wang Laosi stayed where he was and did not disperse.

"Why are you staying here?" The leader asked, confused.

"Boss, I always feel that there is evil here, not ordinary eccentric." Wang Laosi looked around: "You see, there are traces of polishing everywhere on the cave walls, and the strangest thing is that the temperature here is about as warm as outside. It stands to reason that this ghost place is deep and can't see the sun all year round, and it will be extremely cold. What's more, the passage is also surprisingly cold. Perhaps, something is wrong. ”

"Nonsense, of course I know. But what can be done. The leader sighed: "You also know that we can't afford to mess with those people." I shouldn't have taken that deal in the first place, and now it's too late to regret it. I was also blamed for being greedy for money. ”

"That's better than ......" Wang Laosi was about to speak, when suddenly a sharp exclamation came from a distance. The leader drew his knife sharply, his leg was a little, and he ran quickly in that direction.

"Old man, what's wrong?" He nervously watched around him. I saw that Lao Jiu looked demented, and he didn't know what shocked him, he was staying motionless in place, and his hand was pointing not far away.

He looked at the place where Lao Jiujiu pointed and was stunned for a moment. Just a few feet away from him, there were many skeletons, human skeletons, densely thrown together. Although there was a lot of blood on his hands, the staggering amount in front of him was enough to be afraid. Piles of human skeletons fell to the ground in strange postures, and in the dim light of the torches, the faint color of the white forest was shocking.

The leader shuddered, and said nothing with a calm face, just crouched down to examine a few nearby human bones. The bones are fairly well preserved, and they are estimated to have been dead for only a few decades. He still has a blade in his hand and clothes on his body. There are no visible injuries. I watched a few more, and it was in a similar state. It is estimated that the thousands of people who died here were all the same.

There were no obvious injuries, but the men were holding their weapons tightly before they died, as if they were facing a great enemy. But they were not hurt. Strange, how did the thousands of people here die?

I don't know when, Wang Laosi also squatted beside him, he picked up a piece of clothing with his hand, looked at it carefully, his face was full of surprise, and he stammered: "Boss, these people, there are, there are problems." ”

"Dead people, there's a fart problem." The leader slapped him on the head.

"There's really a problem, these people are all axe gangs from decades ago." Wang Laosi shouted.

The leader's heart sank again, and he grabbed Wang Laosi's neck and shouted, "Are you sure." ”

"Sure." Wang Laosi nodded affirmatively and handed over the clothes in his hand: "Look at the marks sewn on the clothes." ”

In the dim light of the torches, he saw that there were two crossed axes sewn into the clothes, which were indeed the emblems of the brilliant Axe Gang fifty years ago. It's no wonder that the Axe Gang, which claims to have more than a thousand masters, suddenly disappeared without a trace at its peak, and it turned out that they all died here.

There are quirks! Very quirky! Who and what forces killed them? Not only did he kill more than a thousand people, but he did not leave any traces on them. Looking at the posture of the bones, it is obvious that it is in a state of tension. It's not like starvation. That is, they were not sealed in a cave.

Could it be that this cave is the root of the weirdness?

Just then, another scream came.

The leader scurried over again. I saw that one of his men was standing, and not far in front of him there was an old ship-shaped brick tomb group, about twenty or so. All the tombs are carved out of bluestone bricks and blend in with the rock underground. If you look closely, it should be that the craftsman buried the entire bluestone tomb in the rock, and I don't know how deep it is.

The tombs, which resemble small boats, are arranged in an orderly north-south direction, and the leader carefully examines them and finds that most of them are single rooms, but some are double burials, and the specifications are almost the same. All of them are 2 to 3 feet long, 1 foot high, 5 feet wide at the south end, 9 feet wide at the north end, and 7 feet wide at the waist.

Wang Laosi walked over in surprise and checked for a long time, and then said slowly: "Boss, the masonry forms of these tombs are basically similar, but they are divided into three kinds in subtle ways. The first is narrow at the southern end, bulging outwards at the waist and slightly wider at the northern end, and the tomb is sealed with bricks in the shape of a triangular bow. The second type is about the same width at the north and south ends, the waist sides are slightly arced outward, and the tomb is sealed with bricks to form a triangle. The third is an enlargement of the first type, but there is a short tomb road on the east side of the north end, and the sealing bricks at the entrance of the tomb are also triangular. I think it was built in the middle of the Han Dynasty. ”
