Chapter 10: The Bones Washed Out by the Rain 02

I squinted and felt a large rock, hidden in the weeds, and I couldn't see it from the outside. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

I asked Zhang Shiyang to come over, and the two of them climbed this big rock, and it was finally safe here.

The two of us held our backpacks above our heads to keep out the rain, making a little gap, and after a few breaths of relief, the two of us looked at each other in embarrassment.

But fortunately, although this rainstorm was fierce, it didn't last long, and soon, it was really raining and the sky was clear.

In less than five minutes, the clouds cleared and the sun shone in, and through the gaps in the leaves, some sunlight could still be seen here.

I put my backpack down, my arms were numb, and it felt really bad to get soaked.

Zhang Shiyang suddenly jumped off the boulder, squatting on the side as if he had found something important, he didn't look up, but subconsciously raised his hand to greet me, "Brother Fang Zi, what do you think this is?" ”

I didn't hear his tone like he was joking with me, so I immediately jumped down and crouched beside him, and there were many white spots in the dark brown mud.

The water was rushing down from above, and more and more white matter was washed out, and I told him to step back, and I myself spread some distance, I don't know what was beneath this layer of earth, but I was sure that this white thing was definitely not stone.

Zhang Shiyang's face was ugly, he pulled off my clothes and whispered, "It's bones." ”

I took a closer look, and sure enough, from the way the water washed out, it did look like a bone, and the size and shape of it were a bit like ......

"Not an animal." Zhang Shiyang's cold voice came, which startled me.

I glanced sideways at him, "You mean there's a dead man buried here?" ”

Zhang Shiyang glanced at me, was stunned for a few seconds, and then nodded.

"This person, could it be that person?"

"Who?"

"Grandpa Wu."

"Wu Tian?"

"Yes."

"Impossible."

"Why can't it be?"

I was momentarily speechless, and thought for a few seconds, "It's impossible anyway." ”

Zhang Shiyang glared at me, "Dig it out and take a look." ”

Now I glared at him, "I said that you kid will be uncomfortable if you don't raise the bar with me in three words, right?" ”

Zhang Shiyang rummaged through things from his backpack and said, "You are an elder, I didn't raise the bar with you, what I said is the truth." ”

"You ......"

"Huh? Elders? Why didn't I think you had any respect for me? ”

Zhang Shiyang squatted in front of the skeleton, looked back at me, and said; "Didn't I call you uncle?"

"Stinky boy, who are you uncle."

“......”

The water rushing down the hillside waned until it was gone, and a humanoid skeleton was washed out of the area where the bones were found.

"It's really human!"

I said to myself and walked over slowly.

This is the skeleton of a man in his thirties, the skull burst, as if it was caused by repeated blows with a hard object, judging from the location of the bones, this person should have been buried here, not accidentally died here due to landslides and other reasons.

"Did you find anything?" I whispered as I stood behind him.

Zhang Shiyang put on white gloves and checked out one of the hand bones, looked at it, and then handed it to me, saying, "This is Grandpa Wu."

"Wu Tian?" I sighed, "Why are you so sure of Wu Tian?" ”

Zhang Shiyang pointed to the hand bone, "Can't you see it?" He has six fingers. ”

"Old man Wu has six fingers?" I looked at him in amazement. "How do you know?"

Zhang Shiyang didn't answer my question, just put the hand bones back, then knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Uncle Wu." ”

I remembered that there was this name in the information I saw in the Xiao family's old mansion before, which said that Wu Tian was the initiator of that operation, and there was also a Boss Chen, who was the leader of their operation.

My grandfather said that after the accident, Zhang Mosheng came back alone.

I looked at this skeleton, and suddenly felt that something had been overlooked, what was the purpose of that operation, was it simply tomb robbing? Boss Wu and Boss Chen are not people waiting for the underworld to pay back the money for dinner, and the ancient tomb in Mengshan is the tomb of the general, but it is not on this side, so, how did Boss Wu and them get here back then, this reason is definitely not as recorded in the information, what encounters mountain thunder sweeping the ground, there is nothing here, and it is impossible for there to be patrols.

"Let's go." Zhang Shiyang stood up, "If you want to know what you really want, take me to Loulan, the answer should be there." ”

"You just said that there is someone waiting for me in the ancient city of Loulan, who is it?"

I suddenly thought of this, "Say, you said that someone was waiting for me in Loulan, who is it?" ”

Zhang Shiyang's breathing was obviously faster, he was weak in his heart, he was a child with no experience, and he didn't know how to disguise his lies at all, so he was a little scared at the moment when I said this.

"Zhang Shiyang, let me ask you, who taught you to do this, led me here step by step, let me find Boss Wu's body, calculated the weather, and made his corpse appear without any deliberate feeling."

"Zhang Shiyang, you say."

Looking at his frightened eyes, I knew I had guessed correctly, but I was very uncomfortable, and once again I could see the disguise of the man, but I couldn't be happy.

Zhang Shiyang still had a panicked look in his eyes, as if a child who had made a mistake had been caught, he just looked at me, did not speak, and did not leave.

I suddenly noticed the ring on his hand, a totem with a pattern that was a symbol of nobility.

"You said that Old Man Zhang is a person who can have a lockbox, what is the origin of your family? Well? ”

Zhang Shiyang looked up at the sky, his face was full of an expression of coming to a divine beast to save me, and I smiled helplessly, this kid is simply a silly boy who acts in a drama according to the script, and he is not a person who can play tricks at all.

"Forget it, if you don't say it, I won't force you to say it, but you kid also knows, did the person who gave you the script consider the danger you might have encountered just now, if I didn't save you, or if I was greedy for life and afraid of death, I ran away first, then wouldn't you want to be the companion of that old man Wu?"

After these words, there was another layer of disappointment in Zhang Shiyang's frightened eyes just now, as if he was still afraid.

"Stinky old man, you've talked enough nonsense, you can't leave."

I stood there and looked at the sky, "Let's go, don't stay here for the New Year." ”

I randomly found a direction to walk, anyway, there is no road here, no matter which direction, I have to go up first.

Zhang Shiyang saw me leaving, and immediately caught up, "Hey, uncle, where are you going, you must go to the ancient city of Loulan, otherwise, otherwise I will be unlucky." (To be continued.) )
