Chapter 123: Demon Ancient Corpse

Because it was so far away, we couldn't see what the dense black dots in the distance were. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, looking at the reaction of the military mastiffs and the state of the yaks in a panic and refusing to move forward, we all thought that we had encountered a snow-capped mountain wolf pack.

Xu Dongqing told us not to move, and then grabbed the belly of the yak, walked to the front of the line, reached out and took out the one-eyed telescope, and looked into the distance.

None of us knew what was going on, and we were all waiting for Xu Dongqing to explain the situation.

"What the hell is going on?" Lu Xiaobu couldn't hold back the most and asked anxiously.

Xu Dongqing didn't speak, he seemed to be extremely surprised, and he didn't know what to say for a while. He could only hand the telescope to Lu Xiaobu.

Lu Xiaobu took the binoculars and looked into the depths of the snowfield with an excited face, but the excitement on his face gradually faded and turned into extreme horror.

I don't know exactly what the two of them saw, but my curiosity was piqued to the extreme. So I snatched the telescope that Lu Xiaobu held in his hand, and his whole person was already stunned at this time, and I didn't react at all when I took the telescope, but opened his mouth wide and froze in place.

I took my binoculars and couldn't wait to look into the distance, and in the distance, the snow-covered snowfield was covered with a large mass of corpses.

The corpses were scattered across the snowfield, many of them frozen together, and the death was horrific.

"Isn't sky burial practiced in Tibetan areas? Why are there so many corpses here? Professor Yu was obviously also startled by the corpses poured out of the snow, and his voice trembled a little.

"Could it be an ice burial? I have heard that wherever there are ancient glaciers, there will be ice burial groups, and I have been to the Changbai Mountain Range. The ice burial swarms there are enormous, littered with corpses frozen deep in the glacier. He Tian, the apprentice of Lanyue Taibao, said.

"I can't rule it out!" Professor Fang said: "These corpses are obviously buried in the iceberg, and they have been shaken out after many ice explosions. But what exactly is the situation. You'll have to look at it to draw conclusions. ”

When Tenzin heard that Professor Fang was going to lead us down, he immediately said, "You can't go, it's very dangerous there." My yak is the youngest warrior in my clan. If even he was afraid of these corpses, then there must be something wrong with them. ”

When Lu Xiaobu heard Tenzin say this, he thought he was afraid, so he said, "You little comrade. If you see a dead person, you will hide, what do you do here, just go to Shanghai, and eat and drink every day. ”

"Brother Lu, that's not what I said. There is a legend in our village that this snow-capped mountain was originally inhabited by demons, and our great ancestors lived to survive. After fighting the demons for a long time, he finally killed them all and sealed them in the earth, so that their souls could never be reborn. And the soil where these demons are buried is also an inauspicious mountain. It's just that they are all forbidden by the Dharma. Tenzin said anxiously when he saw that we didn't believe us.

Xu Dongqing has been in the snow for the longest time, and has heard the legend of why no man's land is a forbidden area.

Sherpas, like Tibetans, are in their eyes. Mountains and rivers and lakes are the embodiment of gods, such as Mount Virgen. There is also the Fairy Lake, which represents the embodiment of good fortune, and when you come to such a place to turn the mountains and lakes, you can pray for the protection of the gods.

However, in addition to these sacred beings, there are also evil mountains and inauspicious lakes. And the mountains and rivers and large lakes in the no-man's land. They are all places where demons live, and the demons are suppressed in the depths of the mountains by the Buddha's spell, so they are listed as a forbidden area of death by the locals that cannot be approached.

This time, Tenzin took us into the mountains for an expedition because the lama in the monastery told Tenzin to lead the army to destroy the demon's tomb. It was a meritorious deed, a great blessing for the peace of the village.

Xu Dongqing looked at Tenzin and smiled bitterly, looked at him and said, "It's useless to say this now, this is only about seven or eight kilometers away from our first camping point. But if we go back, we won't be able to return to camp until dark. ”

Xu Dongqing's words were not finished, but we already understood what he meant, most of our supplies were airdropped to the designated place, so everyone traveled lightly, and there was no tent to spend the night in the glacier and snow, which was no different from suicide.

Team doctor Elizabeth is the least courageous, although as a doctor is no stranger to corpses, but in the face of the ancient evil and mysterious Tibetan legends, Elizabeth, who has been active in Tibet all the year round, is still very afraid: "Since we can't go back, then let's move faster, can we go around directly?" ”

Tenzin was silent for a moment, shook his head and vetoed the proposal: "This road is the only way for us, the ice fields on both sides seem to be safe, but in fact we can't walk, and there are big ice cracks in front of us, and the yaks can't cross at all...... Let's go and take a look at the situation before making plans. ”

Professor Yu and Professor Fang actually wanted to go and see it for a long time, scholars like them have an almost fanatical obsession with studying such things, don't look at the two of them didn't speak just now, and now when they hear that they are going to pass, both eyes are glowing out.

After deciding to move forward, we regrouped and descended down the ice slope to the ice field in the no-man's land.

Needless to say, in order to prevent slipping and falling, we first put the supplies down the ice slope, and then put safety locks on the cattle and went down one by one. It took more than half an hour to reach the bottom of the ice slope.

After watching the mountain run and the dead horse, the whole team has a direction, and the movements are very fast. We didn't say a word all the way, and walked quickly in the direction where the corpses were.

As a result, it seemed that the corpses were close in front of us, and we walked for more than an hour to reach the vicinity of the corpses.

When we saw the first corpse not far away, the first to rush over were Professor Yu and Professor Fang, who had prepared the collection bottle for collecting DNA samples from the corpse and cautiously came to the side of the corpse.

Several people gathered around the corpse, and after a while, there was a burst of exclamations, I was extremely curious, and I hurried over, and when I looked closely, the corpse was already frozen like chaff, the color of the corpse had completely changed to the yellow of rotten wood, and the funeral clothes I was wearing were also frozen with the body.

Because there were too many people, it was difficult to observe in front of a corpse, so Lu Xiaobu and Zhang Yingchuan and I walked to another corpse not far from the corpse to observe.

Before I could squat down to take a closer look, Lu Xiaobu had already taken off the snow goggles he was carrying, and looked at the corpse and grew his mouth in surprise. I said in my heart what is the fuss about a corpse, it has no fangs and no nails, it is just a frozen glacier corpse, and it is impossible for such a corpse to undergo corpse transformation.

"Look at the bodies of these corpses!" Zhang Yingchuan touched me with his elbow and motioned for me to take a closer look at the bodies.

I took off the snow goggles like the two of them, and finally found the strangeness of those corpses!

It turned out that the joints of those corpses were all covered with sharp bone spurs, which pierced out of the skin, like arthropods. At first, because of the distance and the fact that the bone spurs were white, it was easy to be confused with frost, so I didn't see it clearly at the first time.

Could it be that these corpses are really the ancient corpses of demons sealed in the evil giant mountain, as Tenzin said...... (To be continued.) )
