Chapter 129: See the Green Snake Needle Again
"Deliberately hung up, who could it be?" He Xiaochen asked, Zhang Ye thought for a moment and said, "I guess it may be their accomplice, because this is actually a kind of human sacrifice, hanging at the door, maybe the human-faced owl will not attack." Also, the wound on the neck of the corpse earlier, I thought it was the strange bird at first, and then I thought that it could have been a knife that cut the throat. β
I frowned and said, "Do you really think so?" Could those people have deliberately killed their own people as human sacrifices? β
Zhang Ye said: "Otherwise, I can't understand how those people can avoid the attack of the human-faced owl, and still climb on the statue and try to cut off the head of the statue." β
He Xiaochen stuck out his tongue: "Such a big golden head, how much is it worth, these people are also very smart, the ten-meter-high statue can't be transported out, so they want to cut off the head"
"It's not quite right, I don't think it was an accomplice." I pointed to the gun that Zhang Ye "seized" and said, "If they deliberately hung up the bodies of their accomplices, or even attacked their own people, then why didn't they take the guns away?" Even if you don't have a gun, you always have to take the bullets, right? β
Zhang Ye was stunned for a moment, and said: "Yes, how did I forget this, that's right, they really shouldn't have dropped their weapons, so what's going on?"
We all fell into deep thought, obviously this matter is far more complicated than what we see, I thought for a long time, and asked He Xiaochen: "By the way, let me ask you a question, if it was your master, if he walked here and saw that corpse, would he take down the weapon and use it?" Does he usually use a gun? β
He Xiaochen shook his head and said: "He basically never uses a gun, he said that thing is cumbersome, and it is not very useful, at most he will bring a small pistol to defend himself, and he will not bring this kind of big guy, but this is the general situation, if it is to this kind of strange place, I don't know." But I think if he could get a weapon halfway through, he wouldn't have left it alone unless he hadn't seen it. β
"It's impossible not to see it, Wang Yipai has been mixed up for decades, and it's not for nothing, being able to enter such a mysterious place is remarkable in itself, I think that he doesn't think it's useful, second, he is in a hurry to run away and has no time to check carefully, and third" Zhang Ye suddenly stopped as he spoke, and seemed to feel that what he said was not logical, thinking about it and saying: "No, since he has time to take pictures of the human face totem, it is impossible that he doesn't have time to check the corpse." β
I thought about it and said, "I also think that he may not have seen it at the time, but there are a lot of mysteries in this one without seeing it, maybe the gun was there, he didn't see it, or maybe there was no gun on the body at that time?" β
Zhang Ye's face changed slightly, and he said: "If there was no gun on the corpse at that time, this is easier to understand, but how did that gun appear, and how can this be explained?" β
He Xiaochen said: "Forget it, since we have already come, let's not spend that brain studying this, in fact, there are three dragon towers, and there are several human-faced owls, if it is used for human sacrifice, it is impossible that only the corpse is hung at the door where we entered, and there should be three dragon towers, but now, it is impossible for us to go back to check, let's continue to move forward, some truths may never be clear." β
What she said is right, some truths may have been buried deep in the ground for thousands of years and no one can figure it out, just like this mysterious underground palace where we are.
I looked down at the burial pit on the side of the cloister, and walked forward, although there were still doubts here, but this place was full of dangers, and danger could arise at any time, so it was better to leave as much as possible.
Walking down the corridor, there is a stone field dozens of meters away in front, each stone is two or three meters high, it looks like a stone forest, the spacing is relatively sparse, and the height is uneven.
We walked to the stone forest, looked around, wanted to check the situation first, observed for a while and found nothing unusual, I wanted to beckon everyone to go forward, but at this moment, my flashlight flashed from the corner of the stone forest, and suddenly found a relatively low stone, there seemed to be a person lying down.
I hurriedly used a flashlight to shine it, and sure enough, there was a person lying on his stomach, slightly sideways, dressed in black, with a strange face, staring and opening his mouth, his body was stiff, and purple-black blood was flowing from his mouth and nose, but the blood had already coagulated, but he had been dead for a long time.
"It'sβthis man seems to have just died." We went over to check it, and I frowned and said, although I can't deduce the time of death, but I have seen a lot of dead people these days, and I can still distinguish between those who have just died and those who have been dead for a long time.
Zhang Ye said: "Yes, this person has just died, and it will definitely not be more than three hours." β
"No more than three hours? Well, doesn't that mean that this man came in before us? I was surprised, "Is there still someone rushing ahead of us, but just now along the way, it seems that there is no trace."
Zhang Ye didn't say a word, stepped forward to take a closer look, suddenly his face moved, and he reached out to tear open the collar of the corpse, and there was a dark green nameplate there.
I exclaimed, "It's their gang again."
Zhang Ye's face was solemn, and he reached out to tear the nameplate, and at the moment when the flashlight flickered, I suddenly found that there seemed to be a little blood stain under this person's ear, and in the flashlight, a very inconspicuous green light flashed.
"There seems to be something strange there" I stretched out my finger, Zhang Ye tore off the nameplate and put it away, and fiddled with the head of the corpse, took a closer look, and suddenly his face changed, and he quickly ripped off the placket on the corpse, wrapped it in his hand, and pulled something behind the corpse's ear, I leaned up to take a look, and was immediately stunned.
What Zhang Ye was holding in his hand was a thin needle more than two inches long and as thin as a cow's hair, shining with a green light.
Although I've only seen this thing twice, it left an extremely deep impression on me, and it was clearly the deadly green snake needle in the Black Water Demon Cave!
Zhang Ye's face was pale, staring at the green snake needle, Huo Ran got up, his eyes searched around, and he had quietly held a flying knife in his hand.
He Xiaochen had never seen this green snake needle, and he didn't know the reason, but when he saw that we were surprised, he was on guard, and he also clenched the short sword, and observed vigilantly everywhere, but he didn't find anything after looking at it for a while, and wondered: "Why are you suddenly nervous, what is this thing, a poisonous needle?" β
"This is not only a poisonous needle, but also a very powerful poisonous needle. Brother Ye, could it be that the green snake has appeared here again? "I'm also very nervous, the identity of this green snake has not been figured out yet, I didn't expect to suddenly see his green snake needle in this mysterious dungeon, and also killed another member of a mysterious organization with a dark green nameplate, what does this mean?
If they are in the same group, then why kill each other?
Zhang Ye took a deep breath, put away the green snake needle temporarily, raised his hand and threw out a few cold fireworks, and said in a low voice: "Whether the green snake appears or not, from now on, everyone must be highly vigilant, if someone has an accident, we must not drag others down, we must have someone get out alive, tell Pan Ye here, understand?" β
His voice was extremely low and resolute, my heart sank, looked at He Xiaochen, and nodded: "I understand, once the existence of the zΓ i here is made public, it will be an earth-shattering thing, since we are here, we must not enter the treasure mountain and return empty." β
He Xiaochen's eyes lit up and said, "Yes, you can't go back empty-handed, you wait, I'll go to the burial pit just now to get something." β
She turned around and ran back, I hurriedly grabbed her and said, "I misunderstood, that's not what I said, I mean that we can't hang up here in obscurity, we have to tell the secrets here, even if you die, it has to be valuable, who told you to get something?"
Zhang Ye was also speechless for a while, picked up a stone from the side, handed it to He Xiaochen and said: "The value of cultural relics here is already incalculable, this stone is a priceless treasure, you take it first, and you will meet anything else later, as long as it is convenient, it is all yours." β
He Xiaochen pursed his lips and threw the stone into his bag, Zhang Ye held the flying knife in his hand, held his breath, and cautiously walked into the stone forest.
I looked down at the corpse again, and became more and more confused, and walked forward, but the nervousness and fear in my heart had been occupied by a strong curiosity, and at this moment, I was extremely eager to know the truth behind this qiΔ.
Several cold fireworks illuminated the surroundings, this stone forest is relatively sparse, uneven in height, very suitable for hiding sneak attacks, I held the short knife in my hand, slowly walked forward, and unconsciously walked into the depths of the stone forest.
The surrounding light gradually dimmed, Zhang Ye threw out two cold fireworks again, and by the light at first glance, I vaguely saw a tall tower-shaped building appear in front of us.
He Xiaochen walked beside me, kept looking around, and suddenly ran to a stone more than two meters high, and shouted: "Look, there are words on this stone."
