Chapter 463: Ground Painting

Li Huaishan's voice came from the walkie-talkie: "Mural? ”

Wu Lin: "It's not a mural, it's just an ordinary carving, try not to speak." ”

Hearing Wu Lin say this, I also bent down and scraped the slime on the ground with the blade of the sapper's shovel.

On the ground covered with slime, there is indeed a huge area of carvings, and the carving is very rough, as if some rough marks have been ground on the ground with a stone chisel, but because of the long years of being wrapped in slime, the marks have been well preserved over the years, and the message of these carvings can still be clearly seen today.

The inscription at my feet depicts several primates with heads, torsos, and limbs, some of which look like humans, and some of which have very long arms, which seem to be savages from the Luo River Circle.

Some of these seemingly abstract figures are extraordinarily large, and in terms of content, the contents of the inscriptions change from left to right, and seem to be combined into a strange story.

The inscription under my feet can be roughly divided into ten different pictures.

In the first picture, ten thin figures are depicted, standing side by side, and below them, a figure of a flame is carved with a dense encirclement of flying insects and snakes with coiled bodies.

The second picture is similar to the first, but the ten people have become nine, and the insects and snakes near the flames are gone.

The superficial meaning of this picture is that there is a person who personally led away the insect tide and poisonous snakes in order to save others, but in the following pictures, this superficial meaning will be reversed.

In the third picture, the flames are extinguished, nine people start attacking each other, two people are killed, and the blood of both is spilled near the extinguished fire, and the two pools of blood are mixed together in the process of flowing.

In the fourth picture, nine more people appeared, three of whom were still in their original form, and the remaining six were unusually large, the blood on the ground was gone, and the campfire was gone.

In the fifth picture, a large group of savages appears, six large humans with clubs in their hands, fighting with the savages, and the other three standing aside, not participating in the battle.

The sixth image is almost identical to the fifth, but only two of the skinny figures remain.

In the seventh picture, the corpses of wild men are everywhere, six large men are fighting together, and the remaining two are still standing in the distance, as if watching.

In the eighth picture, all six people who reminded the magnanimity are gone, the remains of the wild men are gone, and the last two people show their daggers and point their sharp daggers at each other.

In the ninth picture, only one thin person remains, and a man with a larger body than the one who appeared before stands beside him.

In the tenth picture, the thin man wields a whip in his hand, and the head of the whip is pointed at the broad man, who is prostrate on the ground, as if he has been enslaved in some way.

Just looking at the content of these pictures, I can't guess what the author wants to express, but I vaguely feel that what is reflected in the pictures is a little familiar no matter how you look at it.

Later, it was Boss Jiang who said beside me: "Refining the five poisons." ”

She didn't turn on the walkie-talkie, and the voice came directly from the gas mask.

Hearing her say this, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in my head, but before the light could fully bloom, it quickly disappeared again, and I still couldn't figure out what this string of images was trying to express.

At that time, Boss Jiang's voice was not small, I heard it, and the people in front of me could also hear it.

Wu Lin immediately whispered a reminder on the walkie-talkie: "Don't make a sound!" ”

As soon as Wu Lin's voice over there was cut off, Dan Tuo shouted on the walkie-talkie: "Let's go quickly, don't waste time!" ”

It can be heard by everyone, his tone is very nervous now, and he can't wait to leave this place as soon as possible, I always feel that the reason why he is nervous is because Boss Jiang said those three words.

Boss Wen couldn't help muttering: "Dantuo, what's the matter with you, I feel that something is wrong with you since noon today." ”

Wu Lin followed up: "Don't make a sound." ”

This time, Wu Lin's speech speed was very slow, but there was a chilling coldness in his tone, and it felt like a cold knife stretched out of the walkie-talkie, and the blade pressed against everyone's throat.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the intercom suddenly became very quiet.

I patted Boss Jiang, shone my face with a flashlight, and made a lip gesture at her: "I'll go to the front and have a look." ”

Boss Dejiang nodded, and I tiptoed to Wu Lin's side, and slapped the light on the ground, only to find that the carvings under his feet were exactly the same as those I saw just now, except for some deviations from the carved shapes.

I frowned, and Wu Lin raised his flashlight, hitting the light in my face, and then raised his hand to point to the back of the line.

This guy and I seem to have an innate tacit understanding, he doesn't have to speak, I know what he means.

He was asking me, "What did you carve over there?" ”

I replied by raising my chin at his feet.

Wu Lin frowned and gave me a puzzled look.

He was asking me, "The same?" ”

I nodded.

The content of the two pieces is indeed the same.

Wu Lin also raised his chin towards the carvings on the ground, meaning to ask me what the person who carved these lines wanted to express.

I frowned and shook my head twice, indicating that I couldn't tell.

But Wu Lin's next move made me a little confused, so I saw him raise his hand and make a silent gesture.

I looked at him quizzically, and he pointed to the stone wall behind me.

Looking back in the direction of his finger, my gaze landed on the stone wall, but I didn't see anything unusual except for a random pothole.

At first, I did feel puzzled, but soon, I understood why Wu Lin did this, and on the other side of the stone wall, there was a strange sound.

At that time, everyone did not move, the gas masks blocked most of the people's noses and mouths, Wu Lin also choked his breath, and in the dark tunnel, only an indescribable humming was left.

But behind the humming sound, I heard a very heavy snort, and the sound came from the other side of the stone wall.

I tried to hold my breath and was immediately sure that the sound wasn't coming from my nasal cavity.

A low and slightly tearing sound slowly approached us along the stone wall, and it wasn't long before I heard the faint sound of footsteps.

On the other side of the stone wall, there should be a parallel tunnel, something was in the dark, and we carefully got to the closest position to us.

At this time, the footsteps on the opposite side stopped, and the low snort slowly stuck to the wall, sounding exceptionally clear.

It was sticking its head against the stone wall, listening to the movement on our side.

At that moment, the cold hairs on my body were about to stand up, and my left hand unconsciously reached into my pocket, holding the Netherworld Treasure and the Han Fang.

After a short while, there were footsteps on the other side of the stone wall, and a low snort was getting farther and farther away from us.

I just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, but Wu Lin suddenly raised his palm and motioned for everyone not to move.

The footsteps on the other side of the stone wall were first far away, but every time they walked farther, they quickly retreated, and the low snort was once again attached to the stone wall.

Thanks to Wu Lin's timely reminder just now, otherwise, we would have been exposed by now.

This time, it took a long time for the thing pressing against the stone wall to leave, and the footsteps followed the tunnel on the opposite side farther and farther until it disappeared completely.

But no one present dared to relax, and still stood motionless, for fear of making a little noise.

Later, Wu Lin took the initiative to click on the button of the walkie-talkie and said in a low voice: "The danger is lifted, continue to move forward." ”

I lowered my voice and asked Wu Lin, "What is that?" ”

Wu Lin shook his head: "I don't know, I also ran into it when I entered the inner mountain last time, and that time was the same as now, I only heard its movement, and I didn't see it." ”

After speaking, Wu Lin beckoned behind him and led the others towards the depths of the tunnel.

When Danto walked past me, I deliberately glanced at him more, and he happened to exhale a long breath of turbidity, and his chest fluctuated very much, but he should not have expected that the moment he breathed a long sigh of relief, all of them were seen by me.

I guess that the inscriptions on the ground must be related to the secret of Danto's lineage, and Danto must know what the content of the picture represents.

However, I have a word with him first, and there are some things that I can't ask even if I am confused.

When the team walked in front of me, I walked quickly to Boss Jiang's side, Boss Jiang's hand was always on the side of his neck, that place was the button of the walkie-talkie, she seemed to have something to say, but I didn't know if I could speak now.

Until Wu Lin's voice came from the walkie-talkie again: "I've been to this place, it should be not far from the tomb group, everyone pay more attention to the surroundings." ”

As soon as Wu Lin spoke, Boss Jiang couldn't help it, directly pressed the button on the walkie-talkie, and said, "When you came in last time, did you encounter a wild Gu?" ”

Wu Lin: "I've met a lot, don't talk about ......"

Boss Jiang: "The situation is not right, this is a Gu nest, we have been walking for so long, why haven't we seen a wild Gu all the time?" ”

Wu Lin: "It's really not normal. Don't talk. ”

Wu Lin's personality is not only cold, but also very strong, every time he takes the initiative to speak, every time he silences others, he is also him.

Boss Jiang definitely didn't have a good impression of Wu Lin, but no one was willing to touch his scales, just because the chill emanating from him was really chilling.

Even an old man like Boss Jiang, who has been in the industry for many years, will be stopped by him.

Sometimes I also think that fortunately Wu Lin is not my enemy, and if he is my enemy, I am afraid that he will be an extremely difficult opponent.

The team fell silent again, Wu Lin still kept moving forward, and Li Huaishan's mind was not on Wu Lin now, but just shaking the flashlight and constantly changing the position of the beam.

When Li Huaishan shook the beam for the last time, a very smooth stone road appeared at the end of the tunnel, and the stone walls on both sides of the ground were also built with smooth stone bricks, which was a tomb road.
