Chapter 30: The Black Skeleton

The pangolin cautiously burrowed into the gap between the dog's head and the door frame, holding the backpack in his hand, and actually kept any part of his body, not even touching the stone statue and the door frame with his clothes. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In fact, the space is really not big, a person, if you are carried straight and horizontally into it, without touching the stone statue and door frame, this can be done, and the space is almost just right, but a living person gets into it by himself, or does not touch the stone statue and the door frame, it is indeed a bit difficult, this game is not fun.

The pangolin's movements were very slow, and I was anxious to see me, and it took a lot of effort for the pangolin to go in, and when I straightened up, I actually saw that he was sweating on his forehead, and I didn't know if he was scared or tired.

"Pangolin, what do you see in there?" The pangolin wiped the sweat from his forehead, and before he had time to look around, Old K asked him impatiently.

The pangolin shines a flashlight inside, and through the gap between the dog's head and the door frame, our eyes follow the flashlight in the pangolin's hand.

"Nothing!" The pangolin, knowing that we saw most of it, told us what he saw.

I stroked my head and muttered, "No way, it should be full of bones." ”

"What did you say?" The pangolin probably saw my lips moving inside, but didn't hear my voice, so he asked me.

I shook my head: "No! ”

I didn't tell the pangolin about the skeleton I saw in my dream, it was still a dream.

"Pangolin, help us in." I think it's a strange thing that all the bones are gone, and there must be something strange in this circular space, something uncertain, and I need the pangolin to cover us inside.

"Come in! I'll watch it for you. "Pangolins understand what I mean, in fact, everyone understands, but there is a tacit understanding that they don't say it directly.

The next one to go in was me, Shangguan Yaxiong didn't fight with me this time, and watched me from behind me.

I can't be like a pangolin, without touching anything, struggling to get in, and this time it's really not easy compared to what I dreamed of.

Sweat was pouring down my forehead after trying to get in, and in the process, I had been thinking about the bones all over the ground, and it shouldn't have disappeared for no reason.

After I entered, I greeted Shangguan Yaxiong and asked her to come in, and I swept the beam of light of the flashlight into the circular space.

The flashlight pillar is like a huge ruler, helping me to judge the size of this circular space, which I roughly estimate is at least ten meters in diameter.

The flashlight hit the ground, and there were no bones left on the ground, only ashes on the ground.

The flashlight shone on the ashes on the ground, the ashes were black, and most of them were lumpy charcoal that had not been completely burned, and the shape was quite strange, so I crouched down to look at it and picked up a piece of it.

It was black, I looked left and right, and it seemed that this thing was very familiar, and it appeared on each of us, and then my back was cold, and I immediately threw it away: "Mom, it's a human bone." ”

The piece I picked up was actually a person's lower forehead, and even the teeth were still on it, but the color was black.

"What?" The pangolin heard it, but thought it was wrong and asked me.

I explained, "These black ashes and charcoal on the ground are human ashes and bones. ”

"There are so many, how many corpses do you have to burn?" Shangguan Yaxiong had already come in, and she said with a flashlight shining on the circular space of Nuoda.

"It used to be full of bones all over the floor, but now it's just ashes and black bones." I recalled the dream and told Shangguan Yaxiong.

"How can there be so many bones here?" The bearded man also came in and asked when he heard us.

"Big brother, this is a big tomb, a big tomb, how can there be no bones in the tomb, it is quite rare to have such a big tomb, it should be for a person with a prominent status, and it should be that there are burial goods, don't make such a fuss." Old K suddenly told the bearded man like a well-informed tomb robber.

"How could these bones be burned like this?" I was thinking about my own business, and I didn't have time to pay attention to the gossip between the old K and the bearded man.

"It's certain that these bones were burned, but this tomb was completely sealed before we came in, and even if there was still oxygen in it, there wasn't enough oxygen to burn the bones like this, and how could the color be black?" The pangolin didn't matter, knowing that the bones on the ground were human bones, they actually picked up one and looked at it carefully.

"It looks like the fire has just started a short time ago." Yang Gang on the ground finally spoke, he had been watching everything inside through the camera on my headphones, but he hadn't spoken until now.

"You forgot, yesterday's black smoke?" Sun Xiaoya suddenly reminded us at this time.

I exclaimed, "That's right, that black smoke came out of the tomb for a long time, and it didn't disappear until night." ”

"You're saying the bones here were burned after we opened the tomb and put in oxygen?" The pangolin asked me contemplatively.

I nodded.

The pangolin immediately shook his head: "No, there are several factors for combustion to occur, the first is oxygen, and the second is fire to ignite." ”

"It can spontaneously combust." Sun Xiaoya on the ground heard us discuss.

I smiled and said, "Impossible, phosphorus can spontaneously combust, but it can only be achieved under the condition of adaptation to the temperature, and it is late autumn, how can spontaneous combustion occur." ”

"So, someone set them on fire." Sun Xiaoya then said again.

At this time, our eyes can't help but turn to the bearded man, who most of the time has a cigarette in his mouth, which is the fire.

And I quickly dismissed the possibility, this time to go to the grave, until now, all of us have been together, if the beard set anything on fire in the tomb, surely someone would know, and the burning of bones should have happened before we came down.

When the corpse is burned, it is generally burned until only the bones are burned, and the bones will be burned until the organic matter in the bones is burned, and the fire will stop, leaving inorganic matter, and the color should be grayish-white.

Looking at the bones left on the ground, including the ashes, are black, it seems that they are not completely burned.

In the dream, although the bones were black in color, they were all scattered on the ground one by one, and the ground was very clean, there was no dust, and now there is no dust, and the ground is covered with ashes.

"I think there are strange things, don't scatter them, now don't care about the bones and ashes that remain, take a closer look around and see if there are any other finds." Yang Gang couldn't explain the phenomenon he saw, so he could only put it aside for the time being and explore other places first. (To be continued.) )
