Chapter 35: The Way the Rat Dies

In fact, it's not just me who thinks so, I guess Xiaotian thinks so too. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

After I asked, a few of us stood together and looked at Xiao Tu. Waiting for him to give us a detailed explanation and tell us where the trouble came from.

Xiaotu can understand what we mean by looking at our expressions. He continued to point to the blackened bones exposed under the corpse and said, "Take a closer look over here, this thing did not die of natural causes, it should have been injured and killed after a fight or something." ā€œ

I looked at the place where Xiaotu was pointing, and I didn't understand it for a long time. To say just now, I hated the smell of corpses in this thing, so I didn't look at it again after a little bit. But now, after Xiaotu's guidance, he stared directly at the part of the corpse, and he didn't see anything.

But I know that Lao Wu should have seen it, he and Zhang Tianwei nodded, and then knocked twice on the bones on the ground, frowning.

"What the hell is going on, what do you see?"

The more I couldn't see it, the more curious I became, but these few people who understood were here to play me dumb riddles, and they didn't speak.

"Xiaotian, what do you see?"

In desperation, I could only ask Xiaotian first.

"Fat brother, I think a few bones over there should be broken. The bones around here are still very strong, but they are broken in a few places over there, which should not be natural, but the action of external forces. Xiao Tian pointed me over there, still standing in place. It doesn't seem to be too curious about the rest of the story.

In fact, I also know that even if I don't ask, Xiaotu will say it later. But I just can't help my curiosity, and the more they don't say it, the more I want to know.

I took a few steps closer and looked carefully at what Xiao Tian said, and it was indeed a few broken bones. Lao Wu also tested it just now, even if this bone is corroded and blackened, it is still very strong. Even if you hit it hard with a knife, nothing happened, so there must be something wrong with the breaking of these bones. The death of this thing is probably inseparable from the broken bones.

"Old Wu, what do you see, tell the fat man, don't be like a stuffy gourd, just hold it back." I took a few steps forward, patted Lao Wu on the shoulder and asked.

Lao Wu estimated that he had almost observed it this time, raised his head to look at me, and flicked the knife in his hand on the broken bone: "Third master, look at this bone, it is still so hard now, if it was broken at the beginning, how much strength would it be." And, the most important thing is here. ā€

As he spoke, Lao Wu pointed to another larger bone, and then said, "This fracture here is not smooth, what does this mean?" ā€

It didn't matter, Lao Wu continued, and I understood what it meant. This guy must have been fighting with something else before he died, and the fracture of this bone should be the claw or something of that thing, which reached directly into the flesh and grabbed the piece, or bit it off. If it is a general impact, it breaks. The fracture of the bone should be able to be matched. But now between these two pieces of bone, it seems that they have been cut by a saw blade, or worn by something, and it is obvious that they are not naturally broken.

In this way, I can understand why Xiaotu told us to be careful. It's only been three or four years since this thing died, and he's fought something else to death. Moreover, the corpses of other creatures were not seen here. It was clear that the thing that killed him was still alive, perhaps just ahead, or maybe hiding somewhere hidden.

Moreover, this thing is very aggressive. Judging from the fact that he was able to kill the big rat on the ground, the attack power of this thing is self-evident. It can easily break our bones.

"Can you tell what's going on?" In my head, I really can't think of anything that could have the ability to kill such a big rat like this.

"I don't know, but it's supposed to be an animal with sharp teeth or claws." Xiao Tu took over the conversation next to him, pointed to the carrion left next to him and said, "It was torn up quite badly here, and it should have been formed after being bitten through." ā€

ā€œć€ć€ć€ć€ć€ć€ć€ć€ć€ć€ć€ć€ć€ć€ć€ć€ć€ć€ć€ā€

"But don't worry about it, I think this thing may not be very large, and it should be quite difficult to fight this big rat." Lao Wu stepped aside and took over the conversation.

We discussed it for a while, and finally decided that this thing was not a small threat to us, but with caution, it should still be able to deal with it. Of course, we're not stupid enough to run into hostile situations. Just go to find out the situation, and if the situation is not right, choose to withdraw.

After a little rest, we hit the road again. Walking along the passage, the passage here is no better than the one outside, where there are torches, and the whole passage is brighter. But it's different. It can only be lit by our own torches and flashlights.

The surrounding walls are also made of some mountain stones, which are relatively rough and have no reflection at all, and our ability to observe the surroundings is further reduced. However, because of our previous analysis, we know that there may be something more terrible in this passage. Therefore, the attention is very concentrated, and the walk is also very slow, always guarding against any situation that may occur around you.

However, after we walked for a long time, we didn't find anything suspicious, which made me wonder if there was something wrong with my previous speculation. Are we being a little too careful?

"Our previous assumptions were wrong? Isn't it a little too careful? "I felt a little bored, this nervous tension could not last, so I simply relaxed and started chatting with Xiaotian.

Xiao Tian nodded, but still paid attention to his surroundings: "Maybe, but we have to be careful." Even if the previous big rat was not killed by something else, it doesn't mean that it is safe. Besides, have you forgotten? I heard something outside the stone gate before. ā€œ

"So, could it be that we misheard?"

"Whether you heard it or not, in short, we still have to be careful, there is no big mistake in being careful, don't accidentally be attacked by something, it's too late to regret it when the time comes."

As I walked on, it wasn't just that I was more relaxed. Only Xiao Tian and Lao Wu were left with a few of us who still maintained their previous vigilance, and after one another, Xiao Tu and Zhang Tianwei also began to relax. (To be continued.) )
