These whiskers look so realistic, and almost every whisker has a different shape, direction, and even a small bulge on it.

If these whiskers are cast, then what about the molds, and how are the molds made?

I shot the light forward, and the area illuminated by the light was full of such roots, and it would be difficult to create such a large mold even today, not to mention the strong fragrance wafting in the air that reminded me that all the artificial creations here came from the Stone Age or the Bronze Age.

Yes, there are man-made things in this place, but it will definitely not be these iron whiskers on the stone walls, and at that time, such craftsmanship did not exist.

I tried to find the source of the age breath, which was at the top of the tunnel, but when I hit the flashlight, all I could see was a natural rock wall.

"Shoot it." I pointed to the source of the taste and said to Wu Lin.

Wu Lin immediately shot with his gun, and with the sound of a gunshot, the stones there were pierced, and I hit the flashlight at the rubble that fell everywhere, and I saw that between the stones and the powder, there were some golden reflections.

When the dust had calmed down, I stepped forward to take a closer look, and saw that there were some small golden particles mixed with the rubble and dust.

I picked one of them up and looked at it carefully, it was a gold leaf made of gold, the edge of the leaf was raised, and the center of the leaf was concave inward, forming a small bowl of strange shape, this thing was too small to be used for drinking water, I guess it was more likely to be a sacrificial vessel.

In addition to this one, there were two smaller marigolds that had fallen, but they had been torn apart by the blasting force of the bullet and could not be seen in their original form.

Wu Lin asked me on the side, "What is this?" ”

"Bronze Age marigolds, priceless." I didn't sense the spirit from the marigold, and I thought it was useless, so I handed it to Li Huaishan.

Li Huaishan carefully put away the gold leaf bowl and asked me, "People in the Bronze Age also smelted gold?" ”

I said, "Gold doesn't need to be smelted, it can be processed directly from the gold ore that has just been mined." In fact, our ancestors first learned to process gold, and later developed smelting technology, and then began to make bronze utensils. ”

As I spoke, I stood up and shone the iron whiskers on the stone wall again.

I suspect that these iron whiskers are naturally formed, even if I know that this kind of thing is tantamount to fantasy.

I couldn't find anything useful except for a gold leaf bowl, so I could only beckon everyone to go deeper.

At first, the tunnel was straight, but then it gradually sloped downward, and the ground became slippery, so we could only lean and try to stabilize the center.

After walking nearly ten kilometers along the slope, Huang Yuzhong suddenly shouted: "Someone! ”

When he opened his mouth, everyone was startled, and everyone quickly stopped, and swept forward with flashlights.

After a while, Huang Yuzhong shouted again: "No, it's not a person, it seems to be a dried corpse." ”

Without looking back, I asked, "How far is the corpse from us?" ”

"About six hundred meters."

Hearing Huang Yuzhong say this, Wu Lin also turned around and threw a surprised glance at Huang Yuzhong.

The flashlight could not shine at a distance of six hundred meters, and Huang Yuzhong could still see something there, which was indeed a bit beyond common sense.

I patted Wu Lin on the shoulder and asked him to focus on the road ahead, and then I took out the Netherworld Treasure and the Han Fang, and cautiously touched it forward.

Two minutes later, the beam of the flashlight did reflect a human-like silhouette, and the thing shrank in the corner of the tunnel, and I squinted my eyes to look hard, and vaguely saw that its chest seemed to rise and fall slightly in a regular manner, so far away, I wasn't sure if it was the chest that was undulating.

It wasn't until I was less than ten meters away from it that I could see that it was indeed a dried corpse, but it was not a human corpse.

The upper body of this thing should be no different from that of a human, but it has no legs, and from the waist down, there is a very long snake tail, and I roughly estimated that the length of this snake tail is at least two and a half meters.

Its chest was throbbing slightly, but it wasn't the heaving of its ribcage when it breathed, it was the heart beating hard. Because the musculature on its body has dried up completely, only a thin layer of skin remains on the sternum, and the heart's beating is unusually clear.

I suddenly remembered that before entering the fairy cave, Lao Han had said that they had encountered a snake female corpse in the cave, but the corpse in front of me could not see the characteristics of female X, it was a snake man.

Wu Lin saw that the dried corpse was still heartbeating, so he raised his gun and pointed the muzzle at the head of the dried corpse.

When I first saw this corpse, I thought that this thing might be made up of human corpses and snake corpses, after all, creatures with human bodies and snake tails have only appeared in myths and legends, and I think myths must be just myths, and no matter how humans evolve, it is impossible for humans to evolve snake tails.

But the corpse in front of me once again subverted my perception of the world, it was not pieced together, it was a person with the tail of a snake. I even used a carving knife to slide the skin off its waist, and although its muscles were dry, the muscles connected to the snake's tail were still intact.

I looked at the thin muscle tissue, and my mind was confused.

Until Wu Lin said on the side: "Nuwa clan." ”

I suddenly came back to my senses: "Nuwa? ”

Wu Lin nodded: "There is a place called Mass Grave Mountain in Zuo Youdao's hometown, and there is an underground city under the mountain, which used to be the habitat of the Nuwa people. Unexpectedly, the Nuwa people could also be seen in the Dabie Mountains. ”

"Nuwa...... Does it really exist? ”

"I don't think it exists, but I'm afraid the Nuwa clan exists. The burial cultists have studied this ancient clan, it is said that this group evolved from the cavemen, they first appeared in the late Ice Age, and there are still records of their presence in the Stone Age and early Bronze Age, but in the early days of the Xia Dynasty, the Nuwa clan seems to have suddenly disappeared, and the burial people believe that this clan seems to have gone underground to protect something. ”

"How do you know Zuo Youdao's hometown......"

"Everything that has anything to do with Zuo Youdao, I can't say it now, if you have a chance in the future, you should ask him directly."

"Are you familiar with Zuo Youdao?"

Wu Lin's answer was very confusing: "I know, I don't know, I saved him." ”

I didn't ask any more questions, and instead focused on the dry corpse. It was lifeless, its blood was dry, and I couldn't figure out why his heart was still beating, so I slashed its chest with a carving knife.

Looking through the hole in my chest, I saw a coconut-like thing pulsating again and again, almost like my heart beating, but from this "coconut", I smelled a smell of artefacts.

I put my hand into its chest cavity and grabbed the hairy coconut out, and then I saw clearly that the snake man's heart was attached to the back of the hairy coconut, and the whole heart was already shriveled, but there was a copper-sized suction cup on the hairy coconut, which was sucking on the heart that had long been empty.

This hairy coconut is like a pacemaker, it seems to maintain the heartbeat of a dead person through its own beats to ensure normal blood circulation.

I was looking at the sucker on the coconut when I heard a crisp "click", and the coconut shell suddenly cracked a crack.

Before I could react to what was going on, a black insect body jumped out of the hairy coconut, I immediately raised my left hand to resist, but the insect had no chance to get close to me at all, and I didn't know when the big and small black ran over, and I saw two small black shadows jumping up, knocking down the insect in mid-air, and then there was a crisp sound of teeth squeezing the insect shell.

Before the two little ones had eaten the worm clean, I took a closer look, and saw that the worm had a piece of carapace attached to it, which looked no different from a large watermelon worm, but it had no sense of touch, only a long snout in the center of the head, and the kiss was like a sucker.

Wu Lin watched this insect being divided into big and small, and couldn't help muttering: "Your two little ones ...... The taste is quite peculiar. ”

As soon as he said this, I suddenly reacted, Xiaohei actually has no interest in insects on weekdays, I have raised the two of them for so long, and I haven't seen fewer flies and mosquitoes in the old alley, but these two guys seem to be particularly interested in Gu things.

Seeing that the two of them were eating well, I was embarrassed to interrupt them for the time being, but I turned around and swept the body of the dry corpse again, it was completely dead, and now there were no vital signs on it.

Wu Lin asked me, "Have you ever seen a corpse like this before?" ”

"No," I shook my head, "but one thing is certain, this dried corpse must have been artificially processed, plus the gold leaf cup found earlier...... I suspect that behind this tunnel, there may be the altar of the Nuwa clan. Most of the altars before the Zhou Dynasty, especially those set up underground, were very dangerous, so be vigilant. ”

After the big and small black insects were eliminated, I found a chance to ask them why they love to eat insects so much.

Xiao Hei said that the insects here all have a smell that only exists in the underworld, which is much more fragrant than the Gu in the yang world.

The unique taste of the Netherworld?

I saw the outline of the bronze ghost gate on the stone wall just now, and now Xiao Hei said such a thing again, which made me start to think about it.

I asked Xiao Hei why the insects here smell like yin, and what kind of smell is that?

Blackie's answer was very frustrating, she bit her finger and said, "I don't know." That taste...... It's a bit indescribable, anyway, it's a smell that can't be in the yang world. ”
