I didn't expect the second uncle to know this person, so I hurriedly asked, "Who is this person?" Second uncle, how did you know him? ”

The second uncle didn't speak, but squatted down, raised the flashlight and carefully shone on the dead body on the ground, and after a long time, the second uncle sighed, "I didn't expect that the famous Tan Da Boss died here!" ”

"Tan Da is in charge?" I frowned. I suddenly remembered what my second uncle told me about what happened in this desert twenty years ago. In that incident, among the four major families, the Tan family and his party, including the Tan family, were all unable to get out.

Listening to the tone of the second uncle just now, the dead corpse in front of him is Tan Da's master?

I also squatted down and asked the second uncle, "How do you know that this is someone from the Tan family?" ”

The second uncle handed me the ring, "Look at the inside of the ring." ”

I turned around and took a closer look at the sunlight shining in from the door, and sure enough, there was a traditional Tan character engraved on the inside of the ring.

Kong Xue and Shi Tao also came over to take a look, and Kong Xue asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Shi Tao looked at the ring in my hand and said, "The Tan family you are talking about, is it the Tan family in Sichuan?" ”

I nodded, "Brother Tao, you also know the Tan family." ”

Shi Tao smiled, "There are no people who come into contact with this industry who don't know the four major families, speaking of the four major families, how can they not have heard of the Tan family." It's just," Shi Tao looked at the corpse behind him with some confusion, "How could the people of the Tan family die here, could it be that they have fought here before?" ”

"It's almost like that." So I told Shi Tao and Kong Xue what happened twenty years ago.

After listening, Kong Xue said, "It seems that they also came for this Shan Huan Ancient Kingdom twenty years ago?" ”

Kong Xue's statement, there is no doubt that it can appear in this passage, and there is probably no other possibility.

Shi Tao looked at the corpse on the ground, "But why only the Tan family failed to go out, and the whole army was wiped out, and there was no one alive, this is indeed very suspicious." ”

I agree with his statement, "However, there is another point in front of us that is even more incomprehensible, that is, since Tan Da has already come here, and it is only a few steps away from the exit, why didn't he go out, but died here?" ”

Kong Xue thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's possible that he was seriously injured when he walked here, and he didn't have the strength to walk out anymore." ”

Although Kong Xue's speculation does exist, I always feel that such a statement is not very convincing, but I can't think of other possibilities for a while.

At this time, the second uncle, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke: "Actually, it is a fact that the Tan family was injured. ”

When I heard my second uncle say this, I thought, is it really as Kong Xue said, Tan Da was the master of the family who died here after being seriously injured?

Then I heard the second uncle continue: "However, the injuries on his body are not enough to be fatal." And the reason why he can't get out is because someone doesn't want him to go out. ”

As soon as the second uncle said this, I was a little puzzled, and the second uncle beckoned to us, "Look at the neck of this corpse." ”

When we looked closer, we found that there was a wound on the neck of the corpse, and the flesh on the side of the wound was turned outward because the body had dried up.

The wound was so deep that you could almost see the bones inside.

When we saw this, we were immediately shocked, "Is this still a murder!" ”

Shi Tao gently opened the wound of the dried corpse and looked at it, "What a powerful knife!" ”

"Brother Tao, why do you say that?"

Shi Tao pointed with his finger and said: "Look at this wound, straight and neatly incised, it is obviously a knife wound, and it shows that the speed of this knife is extremely fast, the most important thing is the strength of the person who uses the knife, and the cut is good." ”

The second uncle nodded, "Brother Shi Tao does have good eyesight, you must know that this knife is cut down, if it is too shallow, I am afraid it will not hurt people's lives, but if it is cut too deep, the blade will see the cervical vertebrae, which will inevitably cause the knife to be drawn smoothly, this Tan Da is definitely not a good stubble, and the master duel cannot afford to lose, maybe the slightest stagnation of the opponent will give Tan Da Da a chance to fight back." And the person who killed Tan Da's family, killed with one knife, this knife can be called perfect, I really don't know who can use the knife to this extent. ”

After listening to Shi Tao and the second uncle's explanation, I seemed to see the flash of the knife again, but the knife light that appeared in my mind was involuntarily connected with a person, and the speed of this person's knife swing was also unbelievable.

I didn't feel like I looked down and pondered, and suddenly I felt a beam of eyes looking at me, and when I looked up, it turned out to be the second uncle. The two of us looked at each other.

The second uncle opened his mouth and said, "Did you think of someone?" ”

I nodded, "We should be thinking of the same person." But no, twenty years ago, he was just a child! ”

The second uncle nodded, "Even if it's not him, I'm afraid it has something to do with him." ”

Kong Xue watched anxiously from the sidelines, "What kind of dumb riddle are you two playing, who are you talking about?" ”

I sighed lightly, "During that sea trip, we saw Wenmo's fast and accurate knife more than once, and it was so fast that it was impossible to see clearly. ”

Kong Xue's eyes widened, "Are you suspicious of Wenmo?" How is this possible, how old was Tan Da when he died! ”

The second uncle stood up, "We are just guessing, maybe it is his master or elder, in short, it is extremely rare to use a knife to this extent in this era." This is no coincidence! ”

I looked at the steps behind the corpse, "Since I can find the people of the Tan family, does it mean that my general direction is correct, they have been here before." ”

Kong Xue said with some concern: "But if the people of the Tan family died here, will it mean that it is very dangerous down here?" ”

Shi Tao shook his head, "I don't think so, judging from the death of Tan Da's family, there is human involvement in this, and we don't have this possibility today." ”

The second uncle shone the deep steps with a flashlight, "Anyway, we've already come in, there's no reason to go back like this, let's go!" After speaking, the second uncle took the lead and walked down the steps.

The stairs were very narrow, and the excavation was not very regular, and we walked down for a long time, and now I felt that we had really reached the depths of the desert, the depths of the desert.

I really can't imagine how many years it took the ancient kingdom of Shan Huan to carry out such a project, and if the discoveries here are exposed, then the remains of these projects are enough to rank as the ninth wonder of the world.

The steps under our feet twisted and turned, and I couldn't even guess how deep we had reached the desert underground. But these irregular steps, some of which have a very steep slope, and some of which are not wide enough, made me walk all the way down, and my calves and stomach were tired and painful.

As the steps gradually faded, I felt like we were going to the end.

Sure enough, as the stairs became flat, the space in front of us became larger and larger, and in it, we gradually found more traces of man-made architecture. Basically, it's all carvings, some of which are of trees, and some of which are of animals, and I can tell that the animals are represented by earth dragons. And the image of those trees, it is not difficult to guess, nine times out of ten it is the ancient Uzi tree that grows Uzinamu.

As we walked forward, the darkness in front of us suddenly increased. We hurriedly looked around, only to find that we were in a large circular space.

The second uncle said softly: "Flares! ”

Shi Tao reached out and took out a flare gun from his bag, and the reload shot was diagonally upward. The flare flew in an arc and flew upwards, and suddenly, with a snap, it seemed to hit the top. Then a dazzling light burst out, illuminating the entire area at once.

Only then did we realize that the place we were in was a huge space, with several large stone pillars standing around it. And in the middle of the space, there is a protruding stone platform with some strange patterns carved on it.

So we walked to the stone platform in the middle, which seemed to be carved out of a single piece of rock, and the whole stone platform looked quaint and natural, and the strangest thing was that it actually gave me a sense of déjà vu.

The second uncle squatted down and looked at the patterns on the stone platform carefully, "This place seems to be an altar!" ”

"Altar?" I asked. "For sacrifice or something?"

The second uncle shook his head, "It's not easy to say, his totem worship in the ancient country of Shan Huan is a tree, it should be the so-called Uzi ancient tree, and they also have their own belief in the protector god, which is the so-called earth dragon." ”

Treat the Earth Dragon as a protector? I asked the second uncle, "When we were in the ancient tomb of the island, we also saw the earth dragon, could it be that the Xiongnu and the ancient country of Shan Huan have the same guardian spirit, so is there some kind of connection between them?" ”

The second uncle nodded, "They are both northern tribes, this is very likely, as for the specific relationship, we are not sure yet." ”

My second uncle and I were talking, and suddenly, a low voice came from Kong Xue next to me, "Ah! ”

In the empty and quiet underground space, the sudden shouts of this life, although I could hear Kong Xue trying to control her voice, still startled us, I quickly asked, "Kong Xue, what's wrong with you?" ”

Kong Xue exhaled a long breath, lowered her head and waved her hand, "It's okay, it's okay, I suddenly saw a dead person and was startled!" ”

To be honest, I admire Kong Xue a little now, and I am really impressed by her. When a person suddenly sees a dry corpse, he can behave like Kong Xue, that's really good, I think I'm afraid many men can't do it!

We went around to take a look, and found a dead body sitting with its back against the stone platform, from the clothes on the body, we can see that this person should be in the same period as the Tan Da Boss above, there is a short knife in his hand, we picked it up and took a look, On the handle of the knife, there is a Tan word, sure enough, he is also a member of the Tan family!

I suddenly had a hunch that this would be the burial place of the Tan family's team!
