We walked all the way into the middle of the cemetery, far from the previous hillside path, the wind seemed to be a little lighter, but the clouds overhead were more and more, covering the whole island, and from time to time there would be a few slight thunders, but there was no lightning or rain.

When we reached a certain depth, we didn't dare to go any deeper, and the surroundings were obviously a lot darker, as if they were two spaces before, and the difference was too great.

Mai Lao hurriedly stopped, reminding us not to separate, let alone act without authorization, he used a flashlight to shine around and said, "It seems that there is nothing else here except the cemetery, it is too dark inside, let's not go in, how did this cemetery come about?" ”

"It can be seen from this cemetery that this was definitely not a desert island before, it should be a place where people have lived, and it is still a long-term survival, if you pass by here in the short term, you will definitely not die so many people, let alone so many tombstones, just dig a pit and it's over."

"The reason why it has become so desolate and terrifying now, I think there are two possibilities, one is that something big happened in the middle of the way, which caused all the people living here to die, and the other is that the source of life on this small island is gone, which also leads to their collective demise." Chang Shan once again said the key points of the matter, and his analysis was very reasonable, but there were still some key issues missing.

In fact, I also think that this is the case, there is a cemetery, which proves that there must have been people who lived here, since there are people who have survived, then the previous island should be beautiful, green mountains and green waters.

Even if it's not a beautiful scenery, it's definitely not the dead thing it is now, it looks like a ghost island that no one has deserted, and there are still so many deadly creatures, presumably these are all changes that have happened later.

"I agree with Brother Changshan's words, but I believe more in the first point, there should be something big happening here, you see, if you want to survive, you can live entirely by fishing, since ancient times, this water source can rely on rainwater, and it won't starve them all to death at once, right? So I think the biggest possibility is that something big happened in the middle of the way, but what happened? That's the key. Jiao Ba's tone of voice was very serious, although it was dark, I still saw that his face was not quite right.

"Who can live on this island? I really can't think of it, but I can't explain it with so many graves," Jenny shook her head slightly, looking very weak.

"The environment here should have changed later, and it must have been definitely not like this before." Li Xin looked around and spoke.

I pondered for a moment and said, "I guess there must have been a lot of people who have lived here before, and they are still on this island, at least a few generations, or even a dozen generations, and based on the current circumstances, they must have been dead for a long time." ”

"If it is a few years or decades in the short term, this island will definitely not become like this, at least it can be seen that there are people who have survived, but this ghost place is full of dangers, strange insects and strange flowers, if you don't see this cemetery, who would have thought that there would be people on this desert island before? Moreover, the tombstones on this grave bag are seriously damaged, and the handwriting is not clear, which proves that the time is not short. ”

"Zhongyi is right, this desert island, it seems that it has been abandoned for at least a hundred years, and now there is no sign of human existence at all, it is really strange, what kind of life will exist on this island? And what made them all collectively perish? Chang Shan said word by word, his expression was still very calm.

"War, only war, can make the death of the **batch, it may be an internal contradiction, or it may be an invasion of outsiders." I looked at Chang Shan and said, only war can bring about this extinction of lethality.

"And sickness, a deadly disease that kills everybody." Jenny added, but she was right, a contagious and deadly disease, if it happened on this desert island, could also be wiped out en masse.

"The possibility of disease is unlikely, even if there is a large number of deaths, it should be controlled, I think it is very likely that the war that Zhongyi said is completely wiped out because of the war." Li Xin said and glanced at me.

"Now whether it is caused by internal contradictions or external wars, what we need to know now is that the people buried here belong to that era, and this is the most important thing." Jiao Ba said the key to the matter, that's right, if you want to understand the truth about this desert island, you must first figure out the people buried here.

"Mai Lao, what do you think?" This old guy doesn't know what he's thinking? I didn't say a word just now.

Mai Lao came back to his senses, "I'm wondering, who buried them here?" ”

Yes, this is also very important, these grave bags can't be dug by the dead themselves, right? Who did this? Someone has to bury them, if it's a war of slaughter, there should be just a piece of bones, there shouldn't be a grave bag, and there can't be a tombstone? Fuck, how can this be so complicated?

"Brother Yi, is it possible that the mysterious old man, if the whole island is dead, then why is he still alive?" Junko asked, looking at me.

"Junko, don't look at me, I can't answer your question, I don't know who that old man is." I also wondered why all the people on the island were dead, but the shriveled old man was still alive.

"That mysterious old man is very important, on this desert island, there should be no one else except him, he is very likely to be the grave keeper, to prevent outsiders from waiting on this island, so if we calculate, the dangers we encountered before are likely to be due to him." Chang Shan once again said the key thing, that old man, maybe he is really a grave keeper.

But I pondered carefully, if this island was really abandoned for a hundred years, then how old must that old man really be? Oh my God, I can't think about it, he can't be a grave guard all at once, right?

"What the hell is that mysterious old man doing? Is it digging a pit or guarding the grave? I asked, looking left and right.

"There's a good chance it's both."

As soon as Jiao Ba's words were finished, he heard the big man suddenly shout, "Hey Mai Lao, you guys come and see this." ”

The big man was looking at the tombstone in front of a grave bag, "What's wrong?" What did you find? As a group of us walked over, I crouched down and asked.

"If you look at the words on this tombstone, you seem to be able to see it clearly." The big man pointed his finger.

"Really? You get up, I'll take a look. Jiao Ba pushed the big man away, he squatted down and looked carefully with a flashlight, on the top of this tombstone, there is indeed a word that can be seen clearly, but there is only one word, this is a clear word.

"Ming? What do you mean? I turned my head and glanced at Jiao Ba.

Jiao Ba stared at the tombstone and carefully touched it on the tombstone with his hand, "Except for this word, the other words are no longer clear, what does this clear word represent?" ”

"Could it be the meaning of representing the Ming Dynasty?" If that's the case, then this is definitely the place we're looking for.

"Ming Dynasty? Well, it's not that there is no possibility, this Ming character is at the top of the tombstone, and it is obviously the first word, so it can be inferred from this that this possibility is very high, maybe it really represents the meaning of the Ming Dynasty. Jiao Ba nodded slowly and said.

"That's right, the people buried here are most likely from the Ming Dynasty." Tsuneyama said behind me.

"I also think so, if they are really from the Ming Dynasty, this can explain the origin of that submarine cave, prove that it is a passage, and the desert island we are on now is the next stop we are looking for." As he spoke, Jiao Ba slowly stood up and turned his head to look at Mai Lao.

"Can't you? Why did the Ming Dynasty people live on this island, this is a bit too unrealistic. Mai Lao frowned, still a little unconvinced.

"I think what Jiao Ba and Chang Shan said is very reasonable, although this Ming character does not represent anything, but judging from the handwriting on the tombstone, it is very likely that they are from the Ming Dynasty."

"It stands to reason that the Ming Dynasty is hundreds of years away from now, and these tombstones should have been blown away after a hundred years of wind and rain, but if someone takes care of it, it should still be able to stay, such as the mysterious old man, this large cemetery, may be taken care of by him." Li Xin said at a critical moment.

I pondered carefully, but if it was really from the Ming Dynasty, what age was that mysterious old man? If he wasn't from the Ming Dynasty, then why did he want to guard this place, this is a bit unreasonable, from the old man's various signs, he doesn't seem to have escaped here by force or accident.

But if he is really from the Ming Dynasty, then what is he? How can an ordinary person live for hundreds of years, this is a bit too, and the two inferences are obviously not perfect enough.

"Are you sure that the people buried here are from the Ming Dynasty?" I asked, standing up, glancing at the others.

"Who is sure about this, this is just our speculation, but eighty percent should be like this, I always think that we can land on this island, it is not an accident, let alone a coincidence, this is the progress of things." Although Chang Shan was not decisive, he also represented what he meant.

"I'm the same as Chang Shan thought, since I went to this island, what happened is difficult to explain, it stands to reason that it is really unexpected, there is no reason why a desert island will have so much trouble, just this large piece of grave is enough to explain a lot of things." Jiao Ba chin and said meaningfully.

"Now we have to be sure, it's not enough to just infer it, and if it's really the Ming Dynasty people buried here, how can the mysterious old man explain it, is it that he is also a Ming Dynasty person? Is it possible for a person to live that long? "I told me what I was thinking about.
