Although the altar is nothing special, the word offering makes me a little confused. As I walked, I asked, "Boss, what is an offering altar, and what is the difference between it and an ordinary altar?" ”

Wen Mo picked up a bone casually, "The ancient ancestors of various tribes will have their own worship, and most of them belong to totem worship. This worship is sometimes blind, and they will seek out foreign beasts that are similar to their totemic form to make offerings. ”

I seemed to understand what Wenmo meant, and I was suddenly shocked in my heart, "Boss, what do you mean, this, this place is the place where the ancient ancestors fed the monsters?" ”

Wen Mo nodded, "Almost!" ”

I suddenly became nervous, and I couldn't help but look around, "So there was once a strange beast here that was raised by the ancient ancestors?" And," I said, looking at the white bones around me, "and tm is a meat eater!" ”

Wen Mo nodded again. I stretched out my hand and drew the short knife, and my heart jumped wildly, I don't know what kind of monster it is, but looking at the large number of white bones here, this strange beast is probably not small, and I am afraid it is not so docile. Of course, the most crucial question is whether it is still alive at all! The thought of this makes my heart twitch.

But I still consoled myself, after all, this place has been abandoned for I don't know how many years, and even if there are any strange beasts, they will have already starved away, and maybe they are dead now. Even though I tried to think so, I felt a chill run down my back.

Gradually, we can already see the edge of the shallows. Thankfully, we didn't encounter anything out of the ordinary.

Just when my heart was a little settled, the narrator's Wenmo suddenly said, "Huh? "Yes.

My heart immediately shuddered, and I shrank my neck in fright, and looked around vigilantly. Wen Mo rarely shows his emotions and attitudes, and if something makes him react, then this matter is anything but ordinary.

I unconsciously lowered my voice: "Boss, what's the situation?" ”

Wen Mo didn't speak, but turned around and walked towards the edge of the shallows, and I immediately followed behind him.

Wenmo led me all the way to the corner between the edge of the shallow and the cave wall, and then I was surprised to see that there were a lot of huge white bones scattered here, and these white bones were scattered on the edge of the river.

Obviously, when the water level of the river was high, it was submerged here, so these bones were also subjected to the impact of the river, and now that the water level has dropped, they have been deposited here, and they have become like this.

When we look closely at the bones, they look complete and messy.

I immediately understood that this was definitely not a sacrifice thrown into the water by the ancient ancestors, but the bones of an animal that had died here.

The skeleton was huge, each bone the size of my calf. Some of the bones were broken and placed on the ground like a huge fish bone, and I couldn't help but think of the huge fish bone that Xu Fu left behind when I found it in the basement of Ocean University.

However, there is a difference between that bone and the bones we have in front of us today, which are softer and flattened, while these bones are hard and cylindrical.

I asked Wen Mo next to me, "Boss, can you tell what kind of animal bone this is?" ”

Wen Mo reached out and pulled out a somewhat unusual bone from the pile of huge bones, and said, "This is a snake bone!" ”

"Snake bones?" I was a little surprised, "Such a big snake bone?" I shut my mouth halfway through this ......, in fact, what is there to be surprised about, in the depths of the ruins of Qilian Mountain, we have already seen it.

Wen Mo handed me the bone that looked like a short knife in his hand, "This is a snake tooth!" ”

I looked at the snake tooth in my hand and was a little puzzled, "This snake is so big, if this is its tooth, isn't it a little small compared to its body?" I see that snakes usually have long fangs! ”

Wen Mo shook his head, "To such a large size, its body and strength alone are enough to kill its prey, so there is no need for this giant snake to have fangs. Therefore, today's venomous snakes are generally not too large, while large pythons are all non-venomous. ”

Did, I nodded.

At that moment, someone suddenly patted me next to me, "Hey, what are you looking at?" ”

I was taken aback coldly, raised my snake teeth and was about to chop, turned around and flashlight, and I saw the big face of Lantern Festival appear in front of my eyes.

Lantern Xiao was also taken aback, "Calm down!" It's me! ”

"Your uncle!" I scolded, "Surprise me, aren't you on top!" What's going on? ”

Lantern Xiao pointed to the one in front, "There is a stone step that leads down there, and there is nothing down the way from the passage above, I see that you guys are quite rich in things down here, so I came down to see if I could find something good." ”

I reached out and stuffed the snake tooth in my hand into Lantern Xiao's arms, "Give you an ivory, and I'll send it when I go back!" ”

"!" Lantern Xiao casually raised the snake tooth in front of her eyes and looked at it, "Don't lie to me, I heard it just now, this is the snake tooth!" However, such a big snake tooth is really rare, and it may be worth some money. But Lantern Xiao thought about it for a while, and still threw the snake tooth aside, "Forget it, or don't want it, I just told others that this is a snake tooth, and no one believes it!" After speaking, Lantern Xiao turned around and walked to the side, and while walking, he also touched the ground.

I said to Lantern Festival, "Hey, don't look for it, we have to hurry up and find Anado!" ”

Lantern Xiao didn't raise his head and said, "I know, I don't look for it, I'll go over there for convenience." ”

I looked at the scene in front of me and couldn't help but be a little dazed. We originally thought that the legend of the snake in the 100,000 mountains that Anado's father told us was just people's imagination, but now it seems that it is probably true.

Originally, the giant snake in the depths of the Qilian Mountains was the swan song, but I didn't expect to find a brother for it here, is this a rare coincidence, or a species that we have never known about, this giant snake may live in the depths of the earth.

I was thinking nonsense, and when I turned my head, I suddenly saw that Wen Mo was still standing in front of the pile of white bones, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he was thinking about something.

I was a little curious, so I stepped forward and asked, "Boss, how's it going?" Is there something wrong? ”

Wen Mo pursed his lips, "It's a bit strange that this giant snake died here. ”

"Strange?" I hurriedly asked, "What's strange?" Why? ”

Wen Mo took a deep breath, "Have you ever seen the corpse of a snake that died of natural causes in the wild?" ”

I really hadn't paid attention to it before, but now that Wenmo asked, I remembered that it was true, I had never seen the corpse of my dead snake in the wild.

Wen Mo continued: "Snakes like to live in dark and damp underground, so it will burrow, and even before it dies, it will burrow into the hole and die. Generally, they do not die in the wilderness or in the water. ”

I pointed to the pile of snake bones in front of me, "How should this, these, be explained?" ”

Wen Mo nodded, "So, I think this snake died strangely." As he spoke, Wen Mo raised his flashlight to search for a pile of snake bones, and suddenly his expression changed, and he reached out and pulled out a section of his spine from Limai.

I also leaned over and shone a flashlight, and I was immediately shocked, the snake's vertebrae were obviously deformed, as if they had been under heavy pressure.

I said, "Was it stoned?" You look at the bones as if they have been weighed down by something? ”

Wen Mo shook his head slightly, "Actually, this is a bite mark!" This snake was bitten to death! ”

Wenmo's words made me unbelievable, such a huge snake, what could bite it to death. If there really were such animals, how huge this thing would be! Thinking of this, a chill instantly rose in the back of my neck.

I asked Wenmo a little nervously, "Is there really anything bigger than this snake?" If so, where can it hide it? ”

Wen Mo didn't speak, but turned his head to look at the dark cavern into which the river poured in. I could understand what Wenmo meant, so I couldn't help but turn my head to look over. The cave is more than ten meters in diameter, and every time you see it, you will be frightened.

Although the situation here is very similar to the situation at the location where I just came in from the outside, the river is pouring into the cave. But they feel completely different.

My eyes involuntarily stared at the dark cave in front of me, which seemed to have a special power that frightens people, but can attract you to look at it unconsciously. Gradually, I noticed that something seemed to appear in the depths of the cave, and suddenly, two blood-colored red dots appeared in the absolute darkness, and they were getting bigger and bigger!

It was as if two red eyes were smug and quiet, and I had seen these red eyes more than once, and a chill that rose from the depths of my soul made me shiver at once. I subconsciously exclaimed, I couldn't help but take two steps back, stumbled under my feet, and almost fell, I stabilized my body, and when I looked into the cave again, I found that the red eyes I had just seen had disappeared.

At this time, Lantern Xiao walked back, still holding a few things in his hand, which looked like two pieces of jade, "Zhuo Ran, are you okay?" ”

I touched the cold sweat oozing from the corner of my forehead, and then waved my hand, "It's okay, let's leave quickly!" I don't know how Anador is doing now! ”

Lantern Xiao said: "Judging from the fact that she was able to leave the hook knife for us as a clue just now, it seems that she is not in any danger for the time being. ”

I stepped forward, "It's been so long, and the fact that there's still no trace of Anadot is still not to be taken lightly. ”

We continued along the shallows and came to the stone steps that Lantern Festival had just come down.

The lower part of the stone steps leads to the shallows, and the upper part is basically the same passage platform that the Lantern Festival just walked through, and there is a terrace in the middle of the stone steps.

Wen Mo pointed to the terrace above and said, "It should be the altar where the sacrifice is carried out. ”
