Chapter 122: Trapped
The old cat sat down directly against the wall at this time, he asked the bald head for a cigarette, the bald head heard the old cat want a cigarette, and hesitated slightly, but soon he took out a crumpled cigarette case from his pocket, and then took out an "S" shaped cigarette from it, straightened the cigarette, handed it to the old cat, and personally lit it for the old cat.
The old cat didn't be polite to him, he sucked hard, and one by one the eye circles spit out of his mouth. The expression on his face was very calm, as if nothing had happened, the old cat did not seem to be injured by the fall just now, and there was no sign of panting when breathing.
"Little brother, are we trapped? Why don't you even have doors and exits here? The bald head asked.
The old cat smoked a cigarette and nodded to indicate that the bald head was right, although the old cat's expression seemed to have no fluctuations, but in his eyes, there would occasionally show a flickering expression, as if he was thinking about something in his heart.
The bald head didn't ask the old man anything more, but turned around and sat down against the stone wall, and began to mumble incessantly, although he did not complain that the old cat had taken us wrong, so that we had fallen in this place, but he still kept complaining between the lines. At this point, there's no use complaining.
I looked up and saw that it was pitch black above us and we couldn't see anything at all. After we fell from above, the shrill bell sound never came again.
A series of bizarre events one after the other, giving us no thought or respite at all, and my mind is now full of questions.
The corpses above our heads before would definitely not fall for no reason, if something similar to the fall of corpses had happened before, we should have been able to find the fallen corpses when we were in the waterhole, but when we were in the waterhole, we didn't find anything.
That means either the body never fell before we went, or the body was "cleaned" after it fell. Of the above two possibilities, I think the second one is the most likely. It is unlikely that the corpse never fell, but it did not start falling until we reached the waterhole, which is almost none.
On the other hand, if the corpse fell and was "cleaned up" by something, then the one who cleaned up the corpse in the waterhole may be the behemoth that chased us in the darkness just now. And that behemoth feeds on corpses in order to maintain its lifespan.
But thinking of this, I have another question, when we found those corpses, they were all tightly lined up, if there had been a fall, then the corpses should be more sparsely arranged, at least not as compact as we see. Could it be something that "cleaned up" the corpse and hung the corpse on it?
I laughed at the thought of this, and I felt that this was a problem that was difficult to think about and could not solve.
"Come and take a look at this." Lin Xihui's words came from the side.
I saw Lin Xihui standing on one side of the wall, gesturing something to the wall with his hand, and then I approached the wall and saw a relatively clear mural on the wall, and the main body of the mural was a huge four-winged "Ying Long" similar to the shape of an ever-bright lamp!
The dragon on the mural has four legs, a pair in the front and a back, and a long dragon tail on the tail, which is so thin and long that I can even see the dragon scales on the tail. In the middle of its body, there are two pairs of giant wings, so that the two pairs of giant wings are not the same. I was amazed by the intricate depictions of the murals.
The pair of giant wings on Ying Long's body that are positioned upward, the left wing is wide and large, and the wing tail has a wavy arc; The giant wings on the right look slightly smaller than the ones on the left, but the shape of the wings is very open, and I don't know whether the wings are depicted with dragon scales or feathers, in short, they are densely packed and very dense.
And the pair of wings on Ying Long's body that is slightly downward, the left wing is very beautiful after it is expanded, and you can see the segment pattern on the wings. The wings are portrayed with a very layered sense of beauty, and the layering of the patterns on the wings is like a wave of ocean waves that can be seen clearly.
And corresponding to it is the other side of the wing, this wing looks very strange, the wing is not the impression of the wing shape at all, but a similar, funnel folding fan wing, this strange wing, is the smallest of the four wings, the wings are carved one by one, like the size of a grain of rice, as if this thing is neither a feather nor a dragon scale, like a small spot. On closer inspection, these four wings have their own merits and are completely different.
The four-winged dragon head, is not the traditional sense of the dragon's head, but a dragon not a dragon, like a snake not a snake head, in my opinion, the dragon head of the dragon looks extraordinarily demonic, this head is like with an expression, giving people a feeling of smiling but not smiling.
The entire wall is depicted with this Ying Dragon, and in addition to Ying Long, there are also some things like "clouds" depicted around it.
I looked curiously at the murals next to me, and saw that on the wall on my right, a three-eyed snake with a thick body was depicted! It's just that this dragon is slightly different from the one we have seen on the way before, that is, the dragon in this painting, its third eye is no longer an ordinary snake eye, but an eye similar to a human eye! And in the mural, this eye also has an obvious expression-like expression, which can be described as vividly depicted.
Curious, I continued to look down the wall to see what the remaining two murals depicted were, but when I turned around, I saw a bare wall, and there was nothing on it, and one of the walls was the wall where the old cat and the bald head were resting.
I thought it was dust that covered the murals on the wall, but when I thought about it, the previous two murals were carved very clearly, and there was not even a trace of dust, which made me feel a little strange, this place could not be free of dust attached to the walls, and the most puzzling thing was that the two walls I had seen before were as if they had been rubbed by someone, in short, I looked unusually clean.
However, I tried to wipe the wall with my sleeve a few times, but the wall was still bare, and there was nothing. Strange, why does the mural have only two walls, and the remaining two walls have nothing?
