Chapter 174: Rotten Meat
hiss
Could it be that there is really an ancient cemetery palace in this valley?
If so, then who is the owner of this ancient tomb, and will he have some mysterious relationship with the divine beast we are looking for?
Thinking of this, I got up and walked towards Jin Jiuye.
At this time, Jiu Ye's face was a little better, and he slowly opened his eyes when he heard the footsteps. I told him about the monitor lizard, and the ninth master nodded when he heard this.
"I've noticed the chains on the lizard's body for a long time, and I think these two beasts must have broken free from the chains." Jiu Ye said, tilted his body and slowly stood up, took a sip of the kettle out of his backpack, and then said, "Wait a while, you and Xiaopang will look along this waterway to see where those people who were eaten came from." With so many people, how could they leave a little clue, if you know where they came from, then it will not be difficult to find the ancient tomb they are talking about. ”
"Yes." With a promise, I took a flashlight and looked around, and after making sure that there was no danger, I asked Jiu Ye while rummaging through my backpack: "Jiu Ye, there is something I don't know whether to say or not." ”
"Speak." The Ninth Master said, obviously stunned.
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that I'm wondering, is what we're doing a little off-track? Before coming, we said that we were here to catch the beaver, so it looks like a Tufuzi who came to rob the tomb, aren't you a disciple of Maoshan, the people in the Taoist sect have the most respect for ghosts and gods, is it a bit taboo for us to do this? As I spoke, I glanced at the Ninth Master, and after the Ninth Master heard it, he replied with a deep sigh: "You are right, but we can't help it." This thing is different from ordinary beasts, after so many years, there are more people who want to find it, but I haven't heard of it if I can really catch it, since this place is called 'Wind God Valley', then the owner of this ancient tomb is a little related to the word 'Wind God'. I think figuring this out will help us catch the beavers. You know, this beaver, also known as the wind beast, is the most typical one of the wind elves, and if you want to catch it, you can't let go of the slightest clue. ”
"Oh, so you're pretty sure?" Twisting his eyebrows and making a hesitation gesture, I asked the ninth master, and when the ninth master heard it, he smiled a little embarrassedly, "There is no certainty, before I saw something, this qiē is all speculation." I'm running out of time, so I'm going to have to give it a try. In the future, you will know that these spiritual things are often attracted to each other, even the mythical beasts have a tradition of protecting treasures, if there is really something amazing in this ancient tomb, then, the legendary beaver beast will not be too far away. If you look at it again, there is a dark river, which means that this must be a low-lying area, and along the way, it is mostly a downward trend, if I guess correctly, we are now, we should not be far from the mountain canyon, anyway, we have to go down, and it is nothing to walk this section more. ”
"Huh." After listening to him, I couldn't stop smiling, I was thinking, since I have to go down to the valley sooner or later, why bother to go into this cave to fight these two demon beasts?
However, this is not the time to worry about this, as a buddy, it is necessary to talk less and do more.
With this in mind, I said hello to Chubby, rested for a while, and went to explore the way with a flashlight very diligently. I walked for more than half an hour along the dark river, and as the distance increased, the upper reaches of the dark river became narrower and narrower, and soon the tidal flats on the side of the river were too narrow to stand on. I jumped into the river and walked on my way, seeing nothing but the huge paw prints of the dead monitor lizard and some large rats running around.
It seems that those people did not float down the river, and in this case, there is no practical point in going any further.
Seeing that the road ahead could not go on, I turned back, and after a long time of going straight downstream, I suddenly saw a large pool of blood stains in the lower reaches of the dark river. After taking a few steps forward, I almost vomited out the smell of fish in the air.
Scanning around with a flashlight, I couldn't help but shiver. It turned out that in the knee-high river, there were several pale scattered corpses blistered by the river, probably the temperature of the water in the dark river was low, and those corpses showed no obvious signs of decomposition.
I walked over to take a closer look, and suddenly I noticed that these people were muscular and well-proportioned, and although their expressions were a little hideous when they died, they seemed to be capable types of people who had been engaged in outdoor work all year round. The clothes they wore were not uniform, some were casual, some were military, and some were wearing the kind of rat clothes that had long been outdated.
However, on the arms of several large men in short-sleeved vests, I saw several tattoos of the same shape, the size of a coin, which looked like a bird, but a closer look revealed that the tattoos were actually only two wings raised high, and the parts of the body were completely replaced by a strange model of an unknown number.
I don't know what these tattoos represent, I guess they are a symbol of a certain organization, think of the hard-working children in the stone crevices, I believe that these people are a group of organized professional grave robbers, think about it, these people also have some ability, although I don't know where they came in, but being able to get here proves that these people are still at some level.
Just thinking about it, I suddenly saw a woman, ah no, it was a female corpse, the woman was floating on the water, straight and straight, but the figure was still very hot.
I walked up to her, pulled the cover from her shoulder, and sure enough, there was the same sign on her body. Looking at her long hair fluttering, she should be a big beauty. I didn't have the idea of turning her over and looking at it, though. Judging from past experience, no matter how beautiful you were in life, as long as you are a dead person, you can't see anywhere.
After examining the injuries of those people one by one, I found that most of these ** were killed by the monitor lizard, and the wounds torn by the teeth turned outward, and many of them were hung up from excessive blood loss.
Walking around the pile of dead people with his nose covered, he was surprised to find three foreigners in the crowd. In terms of physical characteristics, they are either European or North American, and these people wear military uniforms that are not common in China, and they also carry a lot of precision instruments that cannot be named. One of them died the worst, and his left arm was ripped off along with his pectoral muscles.
After soaking in the water for a long time, his body had long since lost its blood, and the white rotten flesh at the wound was very uncomfortable at a glance.
