Volume 2 The Lost Lost City Chapter 204 Little Things
Moving on, the wind at the bottom of the valley brought a rancid smell. I became nervous again and asked Tang Yiyi if the smell of rancid corpses was the smell of rotting corpses?
I wish I had answered in the affirmative.
However, Tang Yiyi shook his head, and sternly told me that this was not a rotting animal corpse, but the smell of human decay.
So, there's a dead body ahead? But how old must the dead be in this isolated place, and how can it just decompose? The air here is humid and there is often a stream of water rushing through it, specifying that there can be no fresh corpses.
Under the leadership of Tang Yiyi, we quickly found the corpses. The corpse appeared to have been dead for no more than a month. The whole body is rotten, the skin and flesh have become sticky, and even the internal organs have been oxidized into the shape of a spider's web.
And the corpses are not one, there are probably three. The reason why it is uncertain is that only one of the corpses is intact, and the others are dismembered and piled up in a mess.
Judging by the clothes on their bodies, they should have come here for a tour, but they don't know what happened to them, and they all died so miserably.
Tang Yiyi turned her head and vomited.
"There really are living people here." Desertion became nervous, grabbed the weapon, and looked around: "And those living people are very cruel." He dismembered them with a machete. Everyone be careful. ”
"Could it be some primitive race?" I whispered, "In this kind of isolated place, there should be people who used to live." ”
However, Brother Gao Leng denied our idea, and Brother Gao Leng told us that they were not dismembered by machetes, but were bitten off by human teeth and died. And it was a child who was only seven or eight years old who killed them.
A little kid who is only seven or eight years old? It makes us feel even more terrifying and incredible. Who has so much strength and guts? How did he survive in this difficult environment?
However, it is impossible for Brother Gao Leng to say this conclusion for no reason. I hurriedly went up and asked Brother Gao Leng how he could tell that they were bitten to death by children?
Brother Gao Leng said: "It's very simple, you go and check the wound of the corpse, and you will understand." ”
I immediately walked up and took a closer look at the fracture of the corpse, and sure enough, the wound was uneven, and sure enough, it looked like it had been bitten out. The bite wound is more delicate, and you can clearly see a row of small tooth marks, isn't it a child's teeth?
Even if you count carefully, you can see that the number of teeth is the same as that of human teeth.
The desertion's face turned pale with fright, after all, whose bear child came here to spread wild? A few of us big men, can we still be the opponents of that little kid?
Can the children who appear in this kind of place and hurt these guys be ordinary little kids? So I warned them to be careful, and let's go further and see if we can find any trace of the child.
I'm wondering why those people are here. Who are they? What is the channel through which you came here? Perhaps the answer is only known to the "bear child" himself.
As we discussed, we discussed the possibilities. It wasn't until we came across another mass of corpses that I was sure one of them was more likely.
Could this bear child be using people's truth, goodness and beauty to deceive? Perhaps he will pretend to be a child who has been separated from his parents, ask for help from people who are traveling nearby, and then take them down to the bottom of the valley, and then kill them for his own food.
This is the most likely, because it solves a lot of headaches.
There is another doubt that I can't figure out. That's the other team of "us", where did it go? Not to mention finding them along the way, I couldn't even find any clues about them.
This makes me a little desperate, and I wonder if those guys have already suffered a misfortune?
After walking for two or three hours, it was already dark. In this place, it is actually more dangerous, who knows if the "bear child" will jump out and sneak attack us? Since it has the ability to hurt three or four adults, it shouldn't be too difficult for him to take our lives.
We found a cave before it got dark. The cave is not very large, and it is estimated that it can only allow a few of us to get into it and squeeze in.
But it's better than sleeping on the ground, and who knows if we're already being targeted? We immediately brought in a handful of vines and covered the entrance to the cave with only a small crack for us to observe outside.
I had a strong illusion that at night, "another team of us" would reappear. So we got all the weapons we could prepare early. If you really encounter "us", we will preemptively subdue them and ask what the situation is.
Soon, the sky was already out of sight. In order to recharge everyone's energy, I decided to be on duty alone, and everyone else rested, changing shifts every two hours.
In the first half of the night, there was no movement. It wasn't until I was on duty that I finally realized that something was wrong.
There was a slight sound of footsteps in the distance, densely packed, and it sounded as if a large group of people were walking lightly.
I immediately poked my head out to take a closer look. When I saw it like this, I was suddenly scared and my legs and feet were weak, and I almost didn't squat on the ground.
I saw that in the distance, there were a lot of green eyes floating. The big group of green eyes was short, like the height of a three- or four-year-old child.
Could it be that what we encountered was not a "bear child", but a large group of "bear children"?
Grass, a bear child, is enough for us to have a headache, let alone a group of bear children? This sudden situation made me a little at a loss, and I hurriedly woke up Brother Gao Leng.
When several of them found the bear child, they were also shocked. Especially Tang Yiyi, she screamed in fright, fortunately I covered her mouth in time, otherwise we would have ended up in a head-to-head confrontation with these bear children.
The bear kids walked around and looked orderly, like a troop of boy scouts.
They quickly came up to us, and we looked more closely. Those pairs of green eyes, revealing endless deterrence, are sinister and vicious, giving people the feeling of a fierce beast.
I tried to see better, but the light wasn't strong, and I couldn't see anything but one pair of eyes.
As they walked up to us, I could clearly feel my heart pounding, and I was really worried that they would find out. They live on corpses, so they should be more sensitive to human flesh than hunting animals.
The more you worry about something, the more you come. As they walked up to the cave where we were hiding, I heard a small child coughing. The Scout troop stopped at once, and there were three or four pairs of eyes looking in our direction.
I was so nervous that I immediately grabbed my weapon. As long as they dare to take another step, I am ready to do it and fight them to the end.
But fortunately, they did not continue to move forward, but continued to move forward.
Only then did I notice a layer of cold sweat on the palm of my hand, and quickly wiped it on my body. Kai Xiaoxiao and Tang Yiyi also did the same thing.
I was amazed and asked, "With so many bear children, how many corpses do they have to eat to grow up?" The number of people killed here is certainly not only what we see? ”
He hurriedly told me not to say anything, and now he feels that unless we have a few more children, we will never have enough for them to eat.
Frightened by them, we didn't have the heart to go back to sleep. Only Brother Gao Leng, who didn't seem to take these bear children in his eyes at all, was still sleeping when he should have slept, and even made a slight snoring sound.
I hope that those bear children will not turn back again, and at the same time, I thought to myself, why hasn't the other team of "us" appeared? If they don't hide well, I'm afraid they will already be eaten by those bear children.
I analyzed it carefully, and just now they stopped and looked at us, most likely spotting us. But they didn't attack us. Why not attack? Could it be because they have already eaten enough, so they are too lazy to attack us?
Have they already eaten the other team of "us"?
The more I thought about it, the more I felt unsure, so I simply stopped thinking about it and stared at the outside.
After about an hour, there was a sound of rustling. The sound seemed unusual in the silence of the canyon in the middle of the night. I immediately stared in the direction of the sound with wide eyes.
A small child with a faint glow all over his body walked in our direction.
The guy was covered in green light, and I could see clearly that it was indeed a child. Although he couldn't see his face clearly, his delicate body looked like a thin child.
It's just that his eyes are not the same as the green light of the children before, but under the green light, they take on a black and white color.
He walked up step by step, and finally stood not far from us, staring at us.
I panicked instantly, and for the first time I was panicked by a child: "What should I do?" Grass, this kid must have spotted us? ”
Anyway, it's already been discovered, so there's no need to hide it. So I'm going to go out and see what's going on with this bear child.
But before I could go out, Brother Gao Leng took the lead in standing up, pushed open the vine door in front of him, and walked straight towards the child.
We left staring intently at Brother Gao Leng, not knowing what Brother Gao Leng was going to do.
After Brother Gao Leng walked up, he gently patted the child's head. The child immediately roared angrily, and actually crawled on the ground, like a cat, and then jumped up violently, and grabbed Gao Leng's body fiercely.
I was taken aback and hurriedly ran up to help. Because I never thought that the child had such great strength, jumped so high, and was very agile, it didn't seem like a normal child could do it at all.
I hadn't even moved yet, but Brother Gao Leng had already stretched out his palm and slapped the child's head hard. The child fell heavily to the ground, struggled hard, and finally turned and fled.
