Chapter 134: Maze
My uncle found some clues on the side, and we all gathered around the bones. The skeleton appeared to be a soldier, dressed in a tattered yellow cloth uniform, with a green steel helmet and a rusted rifle beside it. He's dressed like a Japanese devil on TV.
"Uncle, this is a devil." My uncle nodded and continued to hold on to the corpse on the ground. Such an old corpse has turned into bones, and he can still see something.
"The bones were broken on the bones, indicating that they had been hit hard before they died. The rifle bullet next to him was also the last to be fired, and it seemed that he had resisted something that attacked him. And there is a bullet hole next to his head, it is estimated that after he lost his mobility, he was killed by other devils. "I'll go, it's just such a pile of bones, my uncle can still see so many things.
"Keep going, Chunlei, and continue to lead the way." Li Chunlei took us and continued to walk into the valley, how did I feel that I was going further and further down. When I got here, I understood. This valley is actually a ravine on the shady slope of the mountain range, with a small opening on the top, and it is covered with rain and fog all year round, so it is no wonder that outsiders can't find it at all.
In fact, it is a valley, but it is more like a super long tunnel, we followed Li Chunlei all the way down, and found more and more devil bones along the way, which looked quite scary. These devils abandoned their light and heavy weapons on the ground, and they died as if they had broken their bones all over their bodies, and what the hell killed them.
"Uncle, are these devils the Japanese reconnaissance team that Uncle Liu said?"
"It's true, I just looked through the devil's documents, and they really entered the mountains at the end of 1944, so they should be not wrong." Isn't the ID card of a Japanese devil supposed to be written in Japanese?
"Uncle, you still know Japanese."
"Of course, for convenience." My uncle gave a lewd smile that he hadn't seen for a long time, turned around and continued to set off. There were hundreds of devils dead on the ground, and I found a strange thing, these Japanese scouts were well equipped and resisted. But it's strange why there are only their corpses on the ground, and not the corpses of what attacked them.
With questions, I can only move on to find answers. We walked forward for a long time, to be precise, we should be going down, and the temperature was getting lower and lower, and it was summer in the south that there was such a cold zone. It's no exaggeration to say that I can see clearly when I open my mouth now. As we walked, there was suddenly a pile of rubble in front of us.
This pile of rocks is in the open area of a valley, and the originally narrow valley suddenly widens here, which is called the gourd valley. The fog here is even thicker, and our torches could have shone twenty meters away, but here we can't even reach five meters. My uncle was walking around, but he didn't mean to go in.
"Chunlei, have you ever been inside this?" My uncle suddenly asked.
"This is really not true, when I was a child, my father took me here at most, and then he didn't take me forward anymore. This time, before we left, he specially told me not to enter easily, this is a maze, and those who trespass will be fascinated and kill each other. But my father also said that a master like Uncle Yu must have a way to break through this maze. "The old village chief and the old man still believe in my uncle's ability.
"Well, it's really a maze here, but I think it's not just a maze here, it shouldn't be an ordinary fog, but a miasma of the mountains and forests in the south. However, half of the miasma in the mountains and forests has a peculiar smell, but the miasma here is like a real mist. If someone with some ability can at most, they will notice this maze and not pay too much attention to this fog. The maze is so broken, I'm afraid I will be poisoned by this miasma. "My uncle is so old and spicy, he can even find these.
"Then Master Yu, what should we do now?"
"Look at me." My uncle started rummaging through his backpack, what was he looking for? My uncle searched and took out a box, and when it was opened, it turned out to be a scarecrow, I haven't seen this little thing for a long time. My uncle took out another medicine box and a red thread.
"This is a heart-clearing pill, eating it can calm people's minds, so that you will not be bewitched." My uncle gave each of us a pill and told us to take it. At this time, my uncle took out a bunch of leaves that looked like mint leaves, what are you doing here?
"This leaf will be held in your mouth for a while, and it will clear the miasma, otherwise you will be poisoned later." My uncle gave us the things and started to get busy with his own business again. My uncle drew a charm and pasted it on the scarecrow's body, and the charm instantly merged into the scarecrow's body, and the scarecrow came to life at once.
This little scarecrow seems to have just woken up, stretching his waist, what an interesting little thing. This little scarecrow was picked up by my uncle and tied a red rope around his waist, what is this for? My uncle tied the red rope around each of our wrists, what is this for?
"I tie this red rope around everyone's wrists, and everyone must ensure that they don't get out of this red rope for a while, otherwise I won't be responsible for what happens." I'll let the scarecrow explore the way first, and we'll be able to get out of this maze by following him. My uncle whispered a few words next to the scarecrow, and the scarecrow ran into the fog.
The red rope around the scarecrow's waist held us together, and we were tied with the red rope, so we could only go in with it. Before entering the maze, we took the pill and took the leaves in our mouths, so it was always foolproof.
We enter the maze, where visibility is low, but we can see things. The ground was littered with corpses that had been reduced to bones. There are people from all dynasties, some with long hair, some with braids, and the Japanese reconnaissance team I just saw. These people were not killed by outsiders, but killed each other, if it weren't for my uncle's medicine, I guess we would be like this now.
The little scarecrow seems to have stopped, and we can gradually see that the road ahead is getting narrower again, and it seems that we will soon be able to get out of the maze. At this time, my uncle had already begun to stop and recycle the red line, but fortunately, everyone was fine. I suddenly felt that something was wrong, as if there was one person missing, why was Li Chunlei, who was walking at the end, gone.
"Not good." It seems that my uncle has also found out that something is wrong. My uncle threw a spell out of his wrist, turned into a fireball in the air, and rushed into the thick fog. With a snap, the fireball exploded, followed by a howling sound similar to that of a beast, and it seemed that Li Chunlei was already more than lucky.
"Go ahead, show me what it is." My uncle called the little scarecrow and asked him to investigate. After a while, the little scarecrow returned, as if he still had something in his hand.
