Chapter 47: The End of Darkness

Maybe it is, maybe it isn't, but I'm sure that the disappearance of those words must have something to do with the reflection on it.

I looked back at the other stone balls, and I took another one, and the result was the same, the other stone balls were also reflective.

Only the blank stone and the disappearing text can only appear in front of the photo.

After looking at it for a while, I thought we might be able to rub it out of paper, but after rummaging through it in my backpack for a while, I couldn't find it.

Looking at the stone balls again, I was more concerned about the vine scripts, but I didn't know what they meant.

Immediately, I immediately beckoned to Dongfang and asked him to come over and take a look.

After Dongfang came over, he picked up the stone ball and looked at it a few times, but he also shook his head again and again, saying that he didn't know, and he minded that if he wanted to know, he could take a picture and ask an expert who studied ancient characters when he went back.

I smiled wryly and shook my head, and asked him if he had any paper, Dongfang shook his head, and said that he didn't come here for sightseeing, so what did he bring paper.

I was a little speechless, but I didn't bother to say anything to him, so I pulled out the first aid kit from his backpack and pulled out a roll of white gauze from it and used it to make paper.

I used to like forensics, and I did a little bit of research on fingerprint extraction, which is now coming in handy.

I first poured a layer of black powder evenly on the gauze, and gradually mixed some water on it, so that the powder could be fixed on the gauze for a long time.

After doing this, I was ready to carefully wrap the gauze on the stone ball and rub the vine script on it, but because there were many rough marks on it, it looked a little blurry, but it was not a big problem.

After wrapping the gauze, I pressed the stone ball firmly and evenly, and printed the words on it.

I worked with Dongfang and pulled a roll and a half of gauze, and finally all the rattan inscriptions were rubbed.

While packing up these troublesome things, I asked Dongfang about the problem on the stone ball.

Although Dongfang was well-informed, he looked left and right for a while, and he didn't say anything, but pulled out another old thing.

"I heard Liu Ran's little uncle say something about this place before, he said that in a tomb here, Liu Qingchun and they disappeared inexplicably, as if they were swallowed by a stone wall."

I shrugged my shoulders and said noncommittally, if he had said this before we came, I might have believed it, but now that he said it was a bit of a trick, because we were already here, and if there was such a thing, why would we be so good.

If you want to say that it disappeared suddenly, it is also a ghost caused by the mechanism here, and I have known about this for a long time, so it is not surprising.

"I didn't believe it before, but when you see this stone ball, what will disappear from its body may also be a kind of foreshadowing, like a miniature version of some mechanism."

Hearing him say this, I felt a little understood, but looking at those stone balls, I couldn't figure out why this thing appeared in such a place if it was part of the mechanism here.

Dongfang touched his chin and thought for a moment, and finally pointed to the cracks in the cave wall, "Maybe it was washed by the water!" ”

"I don't think it's going to be that simple, we walked all the way, and although it felt like it was wet, we didn't see any water."

"However, it is not excluded that there are other living creatures infesting here, even if the stone ball cannot be washed here, but if it can be washed out of the tomb, it is easy to be brought here by other things, and I have seen the environment here with Liu Ran just now."

As he spoke, Dongfang pulled me to the stone wall, pointed to the rough marks on it, and said, "Look, there are claw marks on this stone wall, and it must not be a good stubble to dig a hole here." ”

Looking along the place pointed by the east, I saw that the stone wall was covered with layers of claw marks, "You mean to say that such a big hole is covered by a ...... Dig it up by a group of animals!! ”

Touching the rough claw marks, even though this was the best explanation, I still couldn't believe it.

You must know that this is not a soft layer of soil, it is not so easy to excavate, even if a person wants to dig such a huge hole in such a place, it is not a small project, let alone animals.

"Looking at the shape and size of the claw marks, I guess they were dug up by pangolins, but no one knows why there is such a thing here."

"Pangolins?!" I was even more puzzled, but what could be done through the mountains except for animals with sharp claws and the ability to dig through rocks.

But I have never seen such an animal as a pangolin, and I naturally know very little about its habits, so I don't know if it will make a home here.

However, since it was excavated by animals, there is an explanation for the provenance of these stone balls, but the habits and identity of this animal cannot be determined

We don't have a clue after thinking about it, so we can only be patient for the time being. I looked down at the stone balls again, and I didn't know what it was so famous that I could take them out together.

But looking at the size and size, it's a little frustrating, if we take these things out, I'm afraid we'll have to lose all our things.

At this time, Liu Ran had already gone out to explore the way out, and I discussed with Dongfang here, after stuffing a stone ball into the backpack, I tried it, and I felt that the backpack on my body was very bulging, and it couldn't fit in the cracks at all.

Since this didn't work, I had to settle for the next best thing, and tried to scratch some stone dust with a dagger, but I could not cut a single point with the tip of the knife for a while.

Looking back at Dongfang again, he smiled and shook his head, "Don't waste your efforts, if this thing is so easy to be taken out, I guess the person who brought us here has already done it, where can we wait for us to find this?" ”

I didn't answer, but I was still a little unconvinced, although the vine inscription on it was rubbed down, but this mysterious stone, also has a lot of research value, just like this is inevitably a pity.

Thinking about it, I looked for a cloth again, and planned to wrap the stone ball and tie it to my body with a rope, so that it would not affect us or the stone ball.

I pulled out a piece of cloth and wrapped the stone ball, but Dongfang thought it was inappropriate, so I still had the idea of not hitting this thing.

While we were discussing, I suddenly heard a strange grinding sound outside, which sounded harsh, and I reacted immediately.

The flashlight flicked quickly, and it shone towards the stone wall outside, but it was okay not to look at it, so when I looked at it, I saw a black thing sticking to the stone wall.

It was like a shadow, but in the light, there was nothing, so it was definitely not a shadow.

The figure of the thing was large, it looked like a human, and it seemed to still have its back to us.

After seeing that thing, Dongfang and I were at a loss, how could we have left the tomb, and this kind of monster.

But now is not the time to be verbose, we immediately touched left and right, and carefully touched it.

The thing didn't move, but the sound of its claws clutching at the stone wall made my eardrums tingle and my head buzzing.

I held back and covered my ears with my left arm, trying to reduce the sound until I reached the entrance of the cave, when I suddenly saw the thing turn its head violently.

Under the flashlight, the thing had green hair, and its body was covered with dense scars, as if it had been strangled by countless ropes.

On the scabbed face, through a layer of fluff, a pair of cold eyes shot out of it, and after meeting our flashlight, it suddenly pounced on the stone wall.

Seeing this, I took a quick step back and dodged to the side, and at the moment when the monster approached, a rancid smell came to my face, making me subconsciously frown, and said to myself, what kind of monster is this?

It was a dangerous dodge, and when I turned around and was about to stab the monster with my dagger, the other party chased after me again.

Because of the urgency, I just wanted to slow down my mind when I dodged before, so now we are not far away, and it slapped another claw, and I had to use the dagger in my hand to block it.

Under this block, I found out that the monster's strength is not ordinary, looking at its skinny, but I didn't expect this to directly shoot me.

I staggered, and I barely managed to block the beat, but the bones of my hand were shaken, and the dagger shook in my hand.

But I didn't have time to hesitate, but I held back the pain, and immediately ducked to the side, and put the dagger in my other hand and waved it indiscriminately, to fend off the monster's outstretched arm.

But it's strange to say, a dagger I pulled out casually, just now I stabbed the monster with my right hand, and it was useless, but this time I held the knife with my left hand, and it became very easy to swing.

The monster was forced down by me with a few swords, and it was also retreating, but it was only a few seconds, and after taking two or three steps back, it immediately rushed over, as if to help it run.

I cursed secretly, and immediately walked to the side, ready to stick my body against the stone wall, and when it rushed back, it quickly dodged, with its strength, if it slammed into the stone wall, it would probably be more effective than me stabbing it a few times.

As soon as I thought of this, I immediately retreated, but I didn't expect it to come quickly, and before I could stand next to the stone wall, it had already rushed over, and grabbed me with a wave of my hand.

I felt a strong wind blowing in front of me, and the rancid smell mixed with the wind, and as it hit my face, I felt that my eyes were dark.

After the heart is finished, it looks like I'm going to explain here!

I still had a dagger in my hand, but it was pitch black around me, and the monster's claws were right in front of me, but what was waiting for me was not the pain I had just had, but a strange sound.

I was slightly stunned, and after slowly taking a step back, I felt that nothing was going on in my body, and then I reacted.

I didn't have time to care what was going on, but I immediately moved and stabbed the dagger into the monster's head with a wave of my hand.

I actually thought about this knife, looking at the wounds on its body, I don't know how many times it has been injured, but now it's still the same as nothing, and it can still attack us, it must be because it is not injured in the critical situation, it is not fatal.

But the knife I had prepared was stabbed at the top of its head, and the blade was half of its head, and it seemed to be deep enough to pierce its head.

Without a head, no matter how strong a creature is, I am afraid that it will not have a chance to live, just like a flower and plant that has been cut off from its rhizome and has lost its main channel to support the body, all the characteristics of life will gradually disappear.

In the darkness, I withdrew my hand and looked behind the monster, and saw Dongfang standing there, but at some point he had a rope in his hand.

It turned out that he had just saved me, and strangled the monster's neck with the rope we had just taken out to tie the stone ball.

But it's really dangerous for him to do this, if this monster turns around, then the East will be dangerous.

But it's a coincidence, the monster seems to be very aimed at me, and only attacks me with all its might, but completely ignores the meaning of the East.

I felt a little helpless, and I was really unlucky to think about myself.

Dongfang saw that the monster was motionless and lifeless, so he finally let go of the rope and pulled the dagger off the monster's head with a wave of his hand, "I think you still don't have the idea of hitting these stone balls, otherwise if you provoke these things again, we really won't be able to leave." ”

Looking at the rope that had saved me, I finally nodded and asked Dongfang again, "What is the origin of this monster, it doesn't look like it was raised in a tomb!" ”

Dongfang wiped the blood stains on the dagger with a cloth as he walked over, and as soon as he glanced at the monster, his face suddenly changed, and he muttered in a low voice, "There is such a thing!" ”

Seeing that he was so nervous, I immediately asked, "Do you know what this is!?" ”

Dongfang wiped the dagger dry, and handed it back to me, and when I went to pick it up, he himself crouched down and looked at the monster's face.

I tucked the dagger into my backpack and followed Dongfang's gaze.
