Chapter 125: Revelation on the Monkey Corpse
Anador stared at me in disbelief for a moment, "You can't be mistaken! β
I shook my head softly and didn't speak.
Anado took out his hook knife, also squatted down to inspect the body of the guinea tail monkey, and immediately stood up like an electric shock, "Why, how can this be!" β
I didn't answer Anador's words because I didn't know how to answer either. Anador couldn't help but mutter, "This shouldn't be! If it is a natural death, the muscles of the body should not disappear! If something else kills it, the epidermis can't be undamaged! This, this thing is so weird! β
Looking at the scene in front of me, I suddenly had a sense of dΓ©jΓ vu, the same lack of flesh and blood, only skeleton and skin, I also encountered it once. A name popped into my head - Lambele!
Last time, it was in his shop that we saw the strange statue of the god, and the statue was carved by Ali Merk!
We originally thought that the statue of Ali Merk was related to the ancient kingdom of Shan Huan, but now it seems that this is not the case, I am afraid that it is here that really has something to do with it. And what about the flesh-sucking transparent bugs found at the time? Could it be that the real source is also here?
Thinking of this, my back can't help but feel cold, we have seen the power of that transparent insect at the beginning, and I still have palpitations when I think about it! Once I accidentally touched them, that kind of miserable situation made me goosebumps all over my body when I imagined it.
I reminded Anado, "I've seen a little bug that can eat animals like this, so let's be careful, hopefully it won't be around." β
Anado's eyes widened and she looked at me in surprise, probably thinking that what I had just said was unbelievable, but at this moment, she didn't ask much, which is also one of Anado's advantages, being able to do the right thing at the right time. Seeing this, I really don't want to believe that she will be a traitor who has come to harm us.
I waved at Anado, and together we walked around the monkey carcass on the ground and continued on our way.
Because the discovery of the monkey corpse made me a little uneasy, things seemed to be a little wrong, I remembered the instigation of Ali Merk, who was worshipped by the ancient ancestors, I remembered the legendary Void Eyes, and I also remembered the mysterious and huge Void Eyes under the ancient tombs on the island! I even remembered the unpredictable man in black!
My mind flashed through the clips as if I was playing a movie, but the more things I remembered, the more chaotic my mind became. Thinking of the end, it once again came down to the final question: the ruins of Qilian Mountain, the ancient tombs of the island, the ancient kingdom of Shan Huan, and the last ruins of the ancient ancestors in the 100,000 mountains, what kind of connection does there have between these places that seem to be untouched!
My mind was wandering, and suddenly the walkie-talkie in my pocket rang again, "Zhuo Ran! Zhuo Ran!! Are you there! β
I immediately pulled out my walkie-talkie and replied, "Yes!" I'm here! Lantern Festival! My voice was hurried, as if I was afraid that Lantern Festival would run away.
After my words were sent, the walkie-talkie fell silent again, and I cursed in my heart: No, can't Lantern Festival still hear my voice? Why is it that I can only hear his voice every time, but he can't hear my voice very much, this is too bullying!
When I picked up the walkie-talkie and was about to speak again, suddenly there was a roar like killing a pig during the Lantern Festival: "Ah! Exceptional! Is it really you!! I knew I could find you this way! Hahaha! β
I scratched my head helplessly and listened to Lantern Xiao laughing appreciatively on the walkie-talkie for half a minute, and I couldn't interject at all. After Lantern Xiao's good feeling of self passed, he suddenly said, "Hey, Zhuo Ran, are you still there?" Why don't you speak! β
"!" I took the walkie-talkie and said, "Can you let me talk?" Besides, how do you know you can find me this way? How do you know I'm going this route? β
Lantern Xiao's voice came from the walkie-talkie, "It's very simple, in fact, when I was on the ground, I saw you, I found that you were threatened by Ruan Liang, and I wanted to shoot to save you, but at that time the fog was very big, I was not sure of my marksmanship, I didn't hit Ruan Liang, but I collapsed you." β
When Lantern Festival said this, I suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, fortunately he was quite self-aware of his marksmanship. I only heard Lantern Xiao continue: "After that, I planned to lean over slowly and shoot closer again, but I didn't expect that before I could get ready, the ground would collapse!" β
I said, "But does that have anything to do with you finding me?" β
"Yes!" Lantern Xiao explained, "In terms of the transmitting power of this walkie-talkie, its effective range is almost four to five kilometers, even if there is a mountain and rock barrier, the minimum is more than one kilometer, in such a short time, it is impossible for the two of us to be more than one kilometer apart!" So, you will definitely receive my signal, even if you don't receive it for a while, as long as you follow the passage, you will receive it sooner or later! β
Listening to Lantern Xiao's words, my heart moved, "So you're also in the passage now?" β
Lantern Xiao replied: "No, the place where I fell is a crack in the mountain, I am now sitting on the edge of the crack, condescending and looking at the passage below, where are you?" β
As soon as I heard that Lantern Xiao was also in a crack, I immediately remembered my experience at that time and was a little worried, and I then remembered the dead monkey I saw just now, so I quickly said to Lantern Xiao: "Lantern Xiao, be careful, is there anything abnormal in the crack you are in?" Is there a lime block at the exit? β
As I spoke, I waved my hand at Anado, motioning for her to move on.
After taking two steps, Lantern Xiao's answer came, "No, I'm all normal, by the way, what do you say is the lime blockage?" β
"Okay, this matter can't be explained clearly on the walkie-talkie, let's talk about it after we meet in a while!" Then I couldn't wait to ask, "Hey, did you see my second uncle before I fell?" "I found the Lantern Festival, my mood couldn't help but relax a little more, Wenmo I am not too worried, I am living unharmed like this, and he has no problem. So, now I'm most worried about the second uncle!
At this time, Lantern Xiao's voice came: "Your second uncle should be fine, after the explosion, I saw him half-squatting on the ground and seemed to be eagerly looking for something, I guess he was looking for you." Later, I found out that you were held hostage by Ruan Liang, and I wanted to tell your second uncle, but I was afraid that if I spoke, I would attract Ruan Liang's attention, so I didn't say anything! β
Hearing Lantern Xiao say this, my heart was a little relieved, and I said to Lantern Xiao: "You wait for me, I'll go to you now!" Because I heard the news of the second uncle, my mood improved, so I couldn't help but joke with Lantern Xiao, "Count your kid lucky, if I move faster, I would have walked out of the range of one kilometer before you sent me a signal?" β
Lantern Xiao suddenly laughed on the walkie-talkie, "It's up to you?" If Wenmo believes me, can you go so far so fast? If nothing happens to you, I'll be thankful! β
"Hey, your uncle......" At this time, Anador patted me and said, "I said why are you two so unserious, when have you been here, and you are still poor!" β
I had no choice but to nod, just about to ask the specific location of the Lantern Festival, but his voice came out of the walkie-talkie first, "What?" Is there anyone else next to you? Are you with Anado? β
From the tone of Lantern Xiao, I could tell that he still had some opinions about Anadot. In front of Anado, I couldn't say anything, so I could only say to Lantern Xiao: "I just met her halfway, so I came over together!" β
Lantern Xiao let out a faint "oh", and then asked, "Are you going southwest?" β
I recalled the situation of the fall just now, as well as the direction, and told Lantern Xiao that it should be about the same!
Lantern Xiao said that he should still be ahead of us, so Anado and I moved on. After walking for a distance, I felt that it was not a way to look for it this way, and there were many cracks in the mountain on the stone wall on one side, and it was pitch black. It's a bit difficult to search aimlessly.
I picked up the walkie-talkie and asked Lantern Xiao, "Is there any sign where you are?" β
"Logo?" Lantern Xiao pondered for a while and said, "It's nothing, it's just that there are a lot of murals on the stone wall." β
"Murals?" I immediately asked, "What mural?" β
"It's the eyes!" Lantern Xiao replied, "Many, many eyes! β
"Holy!" I opened my mouth and scolded, "Why didn't you say it just now because of such characteristics?!" β
"How do I know?" Lantern Festival is still a little innocent, "Everywhere I can see this kind of murals, I thought you were the same!" β
"Get out!" I cursed and looked around.
Anado, who was next to her, said, "We don't have such a mural here, it seems that we are not in the same passage stage." β
I nodded, and walked briskly forward, but after turning a corner, the space in front of me suddenly became larger, at least two or three times larger than the previous passage space.
We shone our flashlight around, and suddenly, I noticed a large black figure standing not far ahead, and I walked cautiously over it, only to find that it was a statue.
The statue depicts a man standing tall facing in one direction.
We walked up to the statue and took a closer look, and I noticed that although it was underground, maybe it was too long, and the details of the stone carving had been worn away, but it was still evident that the craftsmanship of the craftsmen was extraordinary, because we stood in front of the statue and could clearly feel the indomitable spirit it exuded! I was amazed by that!
However, I looked at it for a while, and suddenly it seemed that something was not quite right with the statue.
