228 Night Exploration of the Wolf's Lair
After the two finished speaking, they began to bury the dead together.
According to the tradition of the Mongols and caravanserais, the deceased was wrapped in horse leather and buried on the spot, and before the dead could be buried, the living had to carry on the will of the deceased and comfort the soul of the deceased with a cruel ritual.
Watching the others gouge out the eyes of the deceased, and then put them in their mouths and swallow them raw, Liao Dongfeng and the others were a little uncomfortable.
However, they are also people who have experienced strong winds and waves, and even if they are not comfortable, they do not vomit immediately, and after some inquiry, they learned that the reason why the living person swallows the eyes of the dead is because the living person wants the dead to witness what they have done.
The eyes are the source of the senses, and the first reliance on a person's contact with the world, and the Mongolians also believe in the existence of gods in the underworld, so they are actually comforting the gods by doing so, so as to ensure the purity of their words and deeds in the past.
Afterwards, due to the stiffness of the ground in the canyon, it did take a lot of time for everyone to bury the dead, if it weren't for the help of Liao Dongfeng and others, it is estimated that Duolun and others would not be able to bury all the dead until dark.
After finally passing through the canyon smoothly, the vision in front of him was opened up again, but I heard Duolun say that the caravan had not completely passed through the range of the Xing'an Mountains, so it was possible to encounter the wolf demon again.
After listening to Duolun's admonition, Liao Dongfeng also began to think about why the wolf demon suddenly appeared.
Supposedly, if they came for food, they could have slaughtered mules and horses to satisfy their hunger, and even if they ate people, it was barely acceptable.
But that's not the case, it can be seen that they are going for the goods, could it be said that these cruel species are also the product of ** tricks? And is the wolf demon a thing created by man?
Considering that these monsters have a great background, Liao Dongfeng also wanted to wait for the caravan to arrive at the next supply station, and then start to investigate the matter thoroughly.
Beblin was the caravan's next supply station, and since the caravan was not intercepted by wolves and demons on its way later, the whole team reached its destination before dark.
After a short supply period, the caravan was stationed and waited for the next morning.
Beblin is said to be a remote town in Mongolia, but it is actually a paradise for woodcutters.
There were only four villages in the town, and there were less than 1,000 people living in the town, and most of the 1,000 people were scattered herders, who were relatively mobile, especially in the current season, and there were no large numbers of cattle and sheep at all.
Irrelevant matters aside, let's just say that Liao Dongfeng and the others said goodbye to Duolun to investigate the wolf demon before entering the town.
Duolun was worried about the safety of Liao Dongfeng and the others, so he also agreed to wait for all of them to come back before leaving, and Liao Dongfeng also planned to go back quickly, so only Dor's and Zakanaqi's two people went with him, and the others stayed at the supply station with Duolun to wait.
To cut a long story short, an hour later, Liao Dongfeng, Doerr, and Zakanaki were back in the wooded area near the canyon.
At this time, the sky was completely dark, and with the red light of the net, the three of them also paid close attention to the surrounding movements.
This place is less than 10 kilometers away from the scene of the bloody battle, and Liao Dongfeng and the others also followed the direction of the wolf demon's retreat.
It didn't take long for the trap net to catch the blood stains on the ground, and after identifying it, Liao Dongfeng also knew that it was left by the wolf demon.
However, when Liao Dongfeng sniffed the bloodstains, he found that the smell of the wolf demon's blood stains was strikingly similar to the fragrance emitted by the evil insect tyrant.
So now Liao Dongfeng also has a guess that these powerful species are indirectly related to the evil insect bully, maybe they are powerful with the help of the evil insect bully.
Thinking of this, Liao Dongfeng also told the other two about his rough conjecture, and the two were also taken aback after listening to it, and Liao Dongfeng also decided to meet these terrible things again.
To be honest, the evil insects are not terrible before they become adults, as long as they do not spread everywhere, there is a complete way to control them.
But who knows if they have spread? There are tens of millions of people in China, who can guarantee that these people have not encountered evil insects and tyrants? At this point, it's not a one-man affair anymore.
Following the bloodstains all the way, the three of them soon found a wolf demon that had long since died.
With the help of the organ network, Liao Dongfeng also found that a large number of bully evil insects remained in the wolf demon's body, but these evil insects had grown to a few meters long, and they had completely penetrated the wolf demon's brain.
In this way, all the actions of the wolf demon are issued under the control of the evil insect bully, and the reason why the wolf demon attacked the caravan is completely due to the existence of a large number of human brains in the goods carried by the caravan, which means that the evil insect bully wants to change the brain for the wolf demon.
With a snort, the net wiped out the insects, and the corpse of the wolf demon quickly dried up, leaving nothing but a layer of skin.
After that, the three of them looked around for a while, and finally locked on to a large hole not far away, perhaps it was the wolf demon's lair.
Cautiously approaching the cave, Liao Dongfeng found that the outside of the cave was quite clean, at least there was no blood and filth.
At this time, he looked back at the corpse of the wolf demon, and then calculated the distance from the corpse to the cave, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's so close to the cave, and the injured wolf demon didn't go in, it seems that it should have been abandoned, but from this, it can be judged that this species is like locusts, where it goes, it dies, and they refuse to exist without value." ”
"What do you mean? Are you saying that these things are highly organized and disciplined? ”
"Yes, be careful, we may encounter a wolf demon at any time."
With that, he took the lead and went into the cave.
After ten minutes of walking, Liao Dongfeng realized that this cave was extended in all directions, and it did not look like it was made naturally, but it looked like someone had excavated it.
However, looking at the nearby walls, it was not regular, so it was also judged that this cave was just a temporary nest, so the people who dug the cave did not plan to live for a long time.
As they went deeper, the space inside the cave began to grow, and the three of them were originally half-squatting, but even if they stood up, they couldn't reach the wall above their heads.
The cave is very dry and clean, and there is no rancid smell, if it is a wolf's lair, this phenomenon will not occur, so it can only be judged that the habits of the owners here are roughly equivalent to the habits of humans, and in this case, their wisdom should be similar to that of humans.
The cave was quiet at first, with all three of them audible their own breathing, but as they continued deeper, the wheezing of some animal could be heard in the distance.
As the voice got closer and closer, Liao Dongfeng also motioned for the others to stop, only to see that he had turned on the net, and then he took a closer look at the situation in the cave.
The ground here is a mess, except for a few 38 big gayers, there are more incomplete bones.
There are also many footprints on the ground, but they are not left by humans, looking at these slightly large footprints, Liao Dongfeng also judged that there should be wolves and demons walking in and out of this place.
After reading this, the three of them carefully moved a few steps forward, and at this time, they saw that where the red light illuminated, a wolf demon was lying on its back on a boulder, and the wheezing sound heard before was emitted by it.
The wolf demon's breathing was very even, and he seemed to enjoy it very much, at this time, the machine weapon in Zakanaqi's hand also began to slowly turn into a long rope and stretched out, and when it approached the position above the wolf demon, the long rope suddenly turned into a long knife and cut it violently.
Quietly cut off the head of the wolf demon, Liao Dongfeng also raised his thumb to praise, at this time he also quickly stepped forward to eliminate the remnants of the wolf demon's body, and then stood up straight and looked around.
There are wooden tables, chairs and benches in the cave, but the workmanship is a little rough, but seeing that there is no dust on the wooden chairs, Liao Dongfeng also judged that there are often people sitting here.
There are also two 38 large lids erected on the stone wall in the corner, and the body of the gun is also very clean, which should be because the person with the gun often wipes it.
Seeing this, Liao Dongfeng also hurriedly motioned for Dorr and Zakanaqi to step aside, and then he picked up the rifle and checked it, and whispered: "The body of the gun is clean, someone often wipes it, there are people living here, you be careful." ”
Hearing him say this, the two women also raised their vigilance, and the three of them also walked slowly inside against the wall, and only after about five minutes did they come to another colluded cave.
The muffled breathing of the beasts could be heard in the distance, and there were quite a few of them.
After Liao Dongfeng saw it clearly, he realized that the fifteen wolf demons were standing against the wall, looking like they were standing in the punishment station, and they were facing their direction, because the wall blocked the view, and there was no shadow of the punisher.
At this time, I heard a loud sound, and a copper ball rolled to the ground, and Liao Dongfeng could see clearly that this copper ball was almost exactly the same as the ghost-faced lantern, the only thing that could distinguish it was that the grimace on the surface of the ghost-faced lantern was smiling.
At this time, a roar was suddenly heard in the cave, and Liao Dongfeng and others also slammed against the wall, at this time, they saw a furry arm picking up the Luban lock from the ground, and the big hand of the other arm also made a few strokes on the Luban lock.
Lu Ban's lock bloomed like a dandelion, and the evil insects in it also let out a piercing scream.
Seeing this initial form of Luban lock, Liao Dongfeng also felt a little more relaxed in his heart, because such a Luban lock, as long as the bully in it is destroyed, he is not afraid at all.
But then again, wasn't the ghost lantern the same way it was at first?
Yes, the Ghost Face Lantern was indeed like this at first, but Liao Dongfeng knew that his grandfather had been keeping it in a small black box from the day he saw the Ghost Face Lantern.
Let's not talk about how much the small wooden box is worth, let's just say that grandpa is also careful every time he opens the box, and this black box is also a work of mechanical arts, and its structure is as complex as the Luban lock.
Speaking of which, everyone may be a little puzzled, wasn't it a Nanmu box that held the ghost lantern at the beginning? Why is it a black box in Liao Dongfeng's memory? The strangeness of it is not mentioned here for the time being, only one point shows that Liao Yang's protection of the ghost-faced lantern is beyond everyone's imagination.
Long story short. At the moment when the Luban lock in the distance was opened, the ghost lantern in Liao Dongfeng's hand also made a buzzing sound, and before he could figure out what was going on, the ghost lantern had already turned into a trap beast and rushed out, but this time he didn't bring Liao Dongfeng with him.
