Chapter 129: Like a Man's Back

I can't remember if it's the person on the left or the person on the right wearing the mask, but I'm convinced of what I'm seeing.

It was a metal mask, but where it came from, and I'm not sure, was the masked man following them? Still is...... Did someone put the mask on the corpse?

I felt a chill down my spine when I remembered the bones I had seen, and the footprints that had led me past.

And between them, I couldn't be sure what I should believe, that this man had taken the mask off the bones and put it on his face, and that no one had found him? Or is there something wrong with the person himself?

I don't know what the result of this speculation is, maybe I should think to the other side, this man is a masked man, but he only agreed to bring them here, and reached some kind of unknown agreement, hiding from Li Sansi, and came to a dark Chen Cang.

Moreover, Yin Daochang also said that he can't meet Li Sansi anymore, will he also take into account the identity of the mask man?

In the collapse of the cave before, he took the opportunity to escape, sent a letter to Yin Daochang and them, and arranged everything, but he never expected to be trapped here again.

It barely makes sense, but I'm not sure about the mask, its shape, and if I want to figure it out, I'll have to wait for them to leave, and then go over and see it.

Nervous about the mysterious skeleton, I had to go back again to confirm what I saw.

They didn't leave quickly, the flashlight was constantly shaking in the black hole, and they needed to identify these caves to avoid mistakes, so I waited for a long time and saw that their flashlight had gone away, so I carefully touched it.

The uneasiness in my heart is like a constantly tilting scale, waiting for me to correct it myself.

The masked man's every move overlapped with the person I saw, and there was no expression on the unfamiliar face, and if there was no language as an identification, of course I would not be able to see anything, let alone distinguish it.

However, the corpse cave was in front of me, and when I returned to this wide stone cave again, I seemed to be able to feel their presence, but when I calmed down, I didn't notice at all that the male duck's voice was being watched.

Maybe they were nervous, frightened by the black cat that suddenly appeared just now, and they felt that the grass and trees were all soldiers.

Walking into the stone cave, I turned on the flashlight and shook around a few times, but I saw that the bones that I had gathered were actually opened by them again, and the mask on the skull was now gone.

What does the disappearance of the mask mean! Why did the five people I saw, one of them, wear a mask?

Looking at the scattered bones, I gathered them back together, but my mind was thinking about all kinds of problems, but it was far from the human skin map that I found when I collected these bones before.

All that came to mind was the stiff face and what the purpose of the mask was taken.

These complex thoughts swirled back and forth in my mind, but in the end, I connected with the Mask Man in another way.

The giant serpent on the human skin, the man with the mask, the dead guarding the quicksand, and the Gu worms, and the one who knew so much about this place.

First of all, when the door was closed, what he said to me made me make a choice, to save myself and others when I was saving.

Then he guided me to see the head, then the blood sand, and then climbed up to the statue and found the solid man on it, until it finally disappeared around us.

All of this is too much of a coincidence, he seems to know everything here, but he hides it from us.

Although he didn't know how Li Sansi found this person, what method did he use to persuade Li Sansi, so that along the way, Li Sansi rarely asked this person.

Li Sansi may not know the details of this person at all, or he knows best, but he deliberately did not expose it.

I don't know the purpose of this masked man, but I feel that he has a deep connection with the dead here.

Squatting beside the deceased, I recalled all the things we had traveled along the way, and suddenly thought of a detail, and I immediately withdrew my gaze.

That is the Tubo carved on the stone wall below the cave, and the deceased here will not represent Tubo, and the mask on his face also marks the name of Tubo, to control the quicksand, control the underground world, and block foreign intruders

In early Eastern mythology, Tubo was seen as a messenger at the end of time, leading to the reincarnation of beings from all directions.

In the tombs of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the coffin god was often guarded by the role of Tubo, one was to attract the souls of the dead, and the other was to disperse the lonely souls and wild ghost tomb robbers who wandered around and fought with the dead for the tomb

According to this statement, their duties are equivalent to those of the mausoleum keepers, similar in nature to those in the village, but in a more substantive sense.

It's just that when the sand stream engulfs the place, burying the intruders, it also reveals itself.

It is an expulsion, but also a welcome, and only those who come out of the darkness can see the door illuminated by the light.

Walking in from here, you can find what you are looking for.

I saw the dead here, because the sand had run out, and now we had to find the masked man, maybe he was the map here.

Thinking of this, I slowly got up, but suddenly found that there were two more rays of light in the darkness, and the light floated in the air, and when I carefully distinguished, I recognized that it was the black cat.

The black cat stared at me, and at some point it appeared, and when I turned back to walk towards it, I saw that the black cat had also turned around and walked out of the cave.

When I hit it with my flashlight, I saw it dragging a long shadow, but it wasn't as fast as it used to be.

Because I found it a little difficult to walk on its hind legs, and in the flashlight, it also left some strange white footprints on the ground.

I followed it, and I knew it was hurt, but I didn't know how to help it, and when I tried to catch it, I saw that it was vigilant and avoided it.

I looked at it suspiciously, wondering if it was really like what Yin Daochang said, and it was affected by some forces to become like this.

However, it appeared here, as if it was going to take me somewhere, maybe it had something to do with its injury, maybe it was ...... As Dao Yin said, the black cat will lead me to the entrance to the ancient tomb.

Whatever it is, I have to follow it, because I am also confused now, I don't know where to go, maybe I should follow Yin Daochang, but the thought of that mask makes me a little timid.

Perhaps they also discovered that the mask was so special that they had to leave with the mask, so that they could find the exit here more effectively with half the effort.

Thinking like this, I settled down and walked towards the black cat in front of me, but just a few steps away, I felt that something was wrong, but after a few glances, I didn't find anything?

The black cat is still walking not far away, it has a good sense of direction, and it is not at all like I need to constantly distinguish to determine the direction.

When it walked past, it was as if it had a map in its mind, and with an intuition that it could not see, it naturally chose to go to a certain hole.

I wasn't far away from the black cat, and it wasn't fast, but the more I went inside, the weirder I felt, because I also noticed that the male duck was talking and someone was staring at me from behind.

I was nervous at first, always looking back, or looking in the direction I felt, trying to make sure, but after a few times of no results, I calmed myself down, but my mind was still paying attention to the wind and grass around me.

Finally, when I quietly watched my surroundings, I noticed that there was a black figure in my peripheral vision, and the figure appeared quickly, because I did not stop, so it quickly disappeared.

But the moment I spotted it, I determined its position, and after glancing at the black cat, I measured the distance between me and the black shadow, and finally suddenly picked up speed, and before the black cat, I hid in a stone cave.

Immediately, I put away the flashlight, waited quietly, and watched with bated breath at the hiding place of the dark shadow.

It was still dark, but gradually I heard the footsteps of a man, the sound was very small, but in this sharp silence, I could still hear clearly.

The footsteps came towards me hesitantly, but stopped halfway through, as if wondering how quickly I was gone.

However, I estimated the distance, then drew the dagger from my waist and, by feeling, felt the shadow.

But at this moment, the other party suddenly turned on the flashlight, I was distracted by this sudden light, and I felt that the other party was blowing like a gust of wind, I subconsciously stepped back, and covered my eyes with my arms.

Under my arm, after my vision adjusted slightly, I began to fight back, but the other party suddenly retracted his steps and put down the flashlight.

"How could it be you?" The voice came from behind the light, and I listened to it once, and it felt familiar, and when I looked closely, I noticed that this person was also wearing a mask, but this mask was not metal, but white jade.

In his light, the mask shone in the light, revealing its transparent silhouette and a woven pattern.
