Chapter 19 Search

The two of them continued on their way, and had not gone far before the stone-paved road in front of them came to an end. Ahead was a wasteland, sparsely wooded, overgrown with weeds and thorns.

With the experience just now, Laura took off the bow on her back, drew her arrow and put it on it, and her expression became vigilant.

Su Bai also clenched the crow-axe in his hand, but he was secretly thinking in his heart: I must find a way to get a weapon as soon as possible, it is too unreliable to rely on this crow-axe alone.

As expected, no sooner had the two of them walked some distance than there was a commotion in the bushes, followed by two wolves jumping out to block the way. His mouth was grinning, and he stared at the two of them with a fierce look, and a low growl came out of his throat.

"Why are there so many wolves in this place?" Su Bai muttered and reminded Laura, "Laura, be careful." ”

Laura had already pulled the bowstring and aimed at a wolf.

But she could only deal with one of them at most, and if two wolves pounced at the same time, she didn't have time to shoot a second arrow. Therefore, he did not let go of the bowstring in his hand, but confronted the two wolves.

Su Bai knew her concerns, and said loudly: "You solve one end first, and I'll drag the other end." ”

Laura quickly made up her mind, pulling her bowstring backwards at the eager wolf, making a creaking sound.

"Roar!"

The wolf roared and pounced on both sides at the same time.

Shout!

The arrow tore through the air, piercing directly through the neck of the wolf on the left.

In this short period of time, another wolf successfully pounced in front of Laura.

At this moment, a whistling sound sounded, and Su Bai threw the crowaxe in his hand fiercely.

The crowaxe spun in mid-air, striking the wolf in the abdomen. The blade tore through the wolf's skin and stuck it in the stomach.

The wolf let out a wail, and the huge force made its body involuntarily deviate from the predetermined direction, and Laura leaned over, and with his right hand, he pulled the arrow from the quiver and put it on the bow, twisting and pulling the bowstring. The moment he got up, he let go of his hand.

The wounded wolf did not react at all, and was shot by an arrow through the neck.

"Beautiful!"

Looking at her series of flowing movements, Su Bai praised and gave a thumbs up.

Laura smiled shyly and stepped forward to pull the arrow out of the wolf's corpse. After wiping the blood from the arrow on the corpse, the quiver was retracted.

Su Bai also retrieved the other arrow and put it back in the quiver on Laura's back.

Reality is not a game, and arrows can be picked up everywhere in the woods. Therefore, as long as there are arrows that can be used, both of them will recycle as much as possible, and will not waste them easily.

Deal with the wolf, and the rest of the road will be unimpeded.

After climbing over the rocks, a man-made structure appeared in front of it. A stone wall is erected in front of it, and the fire from above can be seen.

"Let's go up and have a look."

Su Bai walked briskly to the stone steps leading to the top.

Ascending the stairs to the high platform, a broken idol appeared in front of the two of them.

The statue is carved out of stone and is seated cross-legged, but the head and a small part of the upper body have collapsed.

"It's another god statue, who is it sacrificing?" Laura looked at the idol with a puzzled face.

"Maybe it's Queen Himiko." Su Bai said, "When we confirm whether this is the site of the Yamatai Empire, all doubts should be answered." ”

"Maybe." Laura nodded.

Su Bai searched around the statue and found a piece of paper that should have been torn from a notebook on a wooden table next to it.

After reading the above, he shouted, "Laura, I found something. ”

Laura walked over, and Su Bai handed her the paper, and said with a smile, "It seems that not only have we seen the true face of that Dr. Whitman, but Sanmantha has also noticed it." And she seems to be quite optimistic about you. ”

"It's Sanmantha!" The girl looked at it and exclaimed, "Sanmantha must have been here." ”

She looked around and shouted, "Sanmantha! Sanmantha, are you there? Answer me! ”

Su Bai didn't stop it, and waited until Laura shouted for a while before saying, "Okay Laura, that's enough." If Sanmantha had been nearby, she would have heard it long ago. There has been no answer yet, indicating that she has gone far. ”

Laura stopped shouting, her face full of disappointment.

Su Bai comforted again: "We will find her, don't worry." And there's Reyes, and they're there. ”

"I hope she's all right, and so are the others." Laura prayed, folded the notebook paper and put it in her pocket, and said to Su Bai, "Let's go, Su." ”

The two of them continued along the rocks that surrounded the valley, and after walking for a while, they found a narrow crevin in the rock. Unfortunately, it was overgrown with dense shrubs and thorns, and they had no tools in their hands and could not pass at all.

They had no choice but to give up the idea of leaving here and move on.

After walking some more distance, the two returned to the stone steps that led to the camp.

"Reyes, where the hell have they gone?" Laura muttered confusedly.

"We haven't been there yet, maybe they've found another way out." Su Bai pointed ahead and said, "Let's continue to look ahead." ”

Laura didn't object, nodded and walked forward: "Then let's go, I hope everything goes well." ”

After walking through the woods for a while, a wooden bridge over a cliff appeared in front of me.

"There seems to be a corpse over there!" Su Bai pointed to the wooden bridge and said, "Go over and see if you can find any clues." ”

They quickened their pace to the bottom of the wooden bridge, where a highly decomposed and dry corpse lay on the edge of the wooden pier, with a small box beside it.

"Laura, go see what's in that box, I'll check the body." Su Bai said, walking towards the dry corpse.

Laura crouched down as she walked to the small box, carefully opening it. There was a mask in the chest.

"What is it?"

She was looking, and Su Bai, who had finished examining the corpse, walked to the side and asked.

"Female Noh noodles are a kind of props used in the 'Noh' drama in Dongying's traditional dramas." Laura explains, "This Noh is not very old, probably carried by some actor who was shipwrecked in a boat. ”

"Laura, you're so knowledgeable that you know everything." Su Bai praised.

"I've just read a lot of books on archaeology." Laura put the mask back in the box, stood up and said with a smile, "Plus I followed my parents to a lot of archaeological teams when I was a child, so I ......"

"Anyway, it's 10,000 times more powerful than me, a scumbag." Su Bai shrugged.

"Scumbag? What is that? Laura asked, puzzled.

"Ahem, it's just a joking name in my hometown." Su Bai coughed dryly, "It is used to describe students who don't study hard and have poor grades." ”

"No, I think Su is very powerful, how can you be a scumbag?" Laura said.

Su Bai's face was not red when he heard this, and his heart did not beat: "I call this self-deprecation, well, you can take it as modesty." ”

Laura suddenly chuckled and said, "You Huaxia people seem to like this word. ”

"Alright, let's not talk about that." Su Bai changed the subject and said, "There are no useful clues on that corpse, let's go up there and take a look." Since a bridge has been built here, it will definitely lead somewhere. ”
