(Self-talk at the beginning of the text: My pace is so slow that my friend told me that you have to start with a fierce conflict, and then you have to follow wave after wave of climaxes, so that the reader can get adrenaline pumping when they read your text!) All I said to him was, 'Why don't you write it?' He was very helpless to ignore me, hehe, I didn't want to be like this, unfortunately, I want to express that the world I want to depict with words is not like that, or with my character little by little paving it, words are paint, is pen and ink, what I want is a long scroll of fine brushwork, the majestic, wanton and vertical and horizontal freehand landscape is not what I can also, ladies and gentlemen, or see me outline the world little by little, presented in front of me, or you are anxious, there is nothing to do, collect it first, In case one day I have time and interest, take your time, if I can make you smile, then it will be in vain for my hard work. )
……
"What!"
Hearing that the two holes turned out to be two eyes, Yan Xuan was shocked all of a sudden, and turned back to look at the two black holes in disbelief.
The owner of the natural eye should have died a long time ago, otherwise how could the demon beast build a nest in it, but ...... If those two holes were really eyes, what was the dead head left here, how huge should that thing, that kind of monster beast......
"Two eyes ......" Lu Pingchuan squinted his eyes and looked at the two holes after hearing this, and then said, "Well, it's quite similar to that, eh, Brother Qian, I'll help you!" ”
Two eyes!
The hole that Qian Chao had drilled into earlier turned out to be just an eye socket!
Then he found something strange in the hole, and then he poked another eye socket hidden by earth and rocks inside!
Eye socket!
The socket of one eye can actually allow a person to bend down slightly to get in!
What the hell is this thing? How big it will be, the eye socket will be like a hole!
Because of Lu Pingchuan's help, the excavation was not slow.
Lu Pingchuan was very powerful, so Qian Chao asked him to dig up along the mound, and told him not to dig through, just dig down the soil and rocks on it.
And Qian Chao himself dug down carefully.
Gradually, Tang Ping and the others saw it more and more clearly.
Along the two holes like eye sockets, Qian Chao cleaned out a gently extended, well-defined bone like a jaw, and several people also saw that as the earth and stone were cleared out, under the jawbone, sharp teeth as thick as a waist were exposed in the soil, but those sharp teeth were still buried in the soil, and the end of the jaw bone was also cleaned by Qian Chao, which was a small hole, which should be the nasal bone.
And Lu Pingchuan dug up almost the entire hillock of earth and stones, exposing almost all the buried true faces, between the two cave entrances, the soil and stones above and below were cleaned up, and the slightly bulging eyebrow bones above the two eye sockets and the round parietal bones above were exposed.
When Tang Ping and the others were tired, Qian Chao was squatting on the frontal bone full of sharp teeth and carefully cleaning it, while Lu Pingchuan seemed to be finished, standing on the round parietal bone with his waist crossed and carefully looking at his feet.
And the two of them were actually in a hideous skull the size of a small hill, and those two hole-like eye sockets were facing Tang Ping and the others, as if they were watching them!
"Oh my God!" Yan Xuan muttered, "This is ...... This...... Something with such a big head! ”
Li Jian didn't speak, and he was also stunned by what he saw.
Tang Ping is the same, looking at the huge skull, she searched quickly in her mind, what kind of demon beast spirit beast head would look like this, but even if it was like this, how could it be so huge?
Qian Chao stood up and looked at Lu Pingchuan behind him, and found that he seemed to be finished, and then looked at Tang Ping's person who was standing still, and then approached the eye socket of the skull, which still smelled bad, but he still got into it again, and only after half a cup of tea did he drill out again.
"Brother Lu, leave the rest to me." Qian Chao said.
"Hmm," Lu Pingchuan agreed, and jumped off the huge skull.
Stretching out his hands, Qian Chao took his best art to the extreme, completely wrapped the skull like a small hill with aura, and then slowly and steadily lifted it up from the soil.
The earth and stones on the skull fell one after another, and then the huge skull was dragged by Qian Chao and moved to an open grass next to it and put it down.
"Good boy, hehe!" It was the first time in Lu Pingchuan's life to see such a big skull, and he couldn't help but be very excited, he turned his head and asked Tang Ping, "I said Sister Tang, what kind of head would be so big?" ”
Tang Ping only shook her head, she couldn't recognize what kind of demon beast's skull it was now.
"Don't you recognize it?" Qian Chao also asked.
"I ...... Alas, I really can't recognize it, I can't think of any monster beast that looks like this," Tang Ping said, and then she thought of something, "Is there anything else down there?" Isn't it possible to achieve only one head? ”
"It seems to be gone, I saw it just now, wait a minute, I'll take a look again." Qian Chao said.
Qian Chao searched carefully in the pit and confirmed that there were no other bones connected to the huge skull under the soil or nearby, but he found a few pieces of ore with very good color, which was an unexpected gain.
"No," Qian Chao said as he returned to the others, "there's only this one skull here." ”
Hearing Qian Chao's words, Yan Xuan was very surprised and said, "Is it difficult...... This thing...... Was it beheaded? ”
These words aroused Li Jian's interest, and he walked to the back of the big skull, and looked at the broken part of the bone carefully, but he couldn't see anything.
"It's hard to say, "Qian Chao approached the huge skull" The age is too old, you see, this bone is almost like a stone, who knows how this guy died back then. ”
Because there was already a lot of soil attached to this skull, Qian Chao frowned, then took out a spirit sword, held the sword in his left hand, and interlocked the thumb and index fingers of his right hand.
The five people all looked around the skull with curiosity, and in front of the five people, the skull was as big as a painting boat.
The five of them have not seen huge demon beasts, such as the negative mountain beast and the mountain guarding beast that are traveling with a small mountain on their backs, if those two big guys die, the skull should be much bigger than the one in front of them. There is also the island of giant trees where the spiritual spring water was found, the big wooden beast that finally came out of the hole, and of course, the equally small Magu finch, whose skull seems to be much smaller than the one in front of them. It's just that the five of them have seen living demon beasts before, and they have naturally seen death, but this is the first time they have seen such a large skull.
Qian Chao looked at Tang Ping again with curiosity, among the five people, Tang Ping was the most proficient in the science of demon beasts, and it should be her most likely to recognize what kind of demon beast skull this was.
It's just that what Tang Ping has learned and known are all living demon beasts, those spirit beasts and monsters that are full of flesh and blood, fur and fur, and spirituality are what she has learned.
Lu Pingchuan didn't speak, just looked left and right at the big skull, and suddenly said, "What do you think this looks like the head?" ”
Hearing him say this, several people looked over.
"Brother Lu, tell me quickly, what is this skull?"
Seeing that several companions were looking at him, Lu Pingchuan said: "Hehe, I used to follow my father to hunt when I was at home, the wolves in the mountains are not less, the wolf meat is average, the wolf skin is good, if the meat on the wolf's head is all rotten, there will be bones left, but it is quite similar to this big guy, but there is too much difference in size, but it is really quite similar, I used to often fiddle with the wolf's head." ”
Listening to Lu Pingchuan's words, Tang Ping's heart suddenly brightened a little, and when he looked at the huge skull again, it really looked like a little bit, if there was blood and flesh on the skull, it really looked a little like a wolf's head, but it wasn't necessarily a wolf, in addition to the wolf, the skulls of dogs and foxes were probably about the same, alas, it was too big, it was hard to judge.
Li Jian stepped forward and stretched out his hand and tapped his finger on the skull, and sighed: "It seems that this guy really doesn't know how long he has been dead, and his bones are really like stones." ”
Seeing him like this, Yan Xuan also reached out and touched it, and sure enough, it was heavy and hard, I don't know how long this big skull had been buried in the soil, and it was actually made into a nest by several demon beasts and lived in.
What's the use of this thing? Qian Chao thought in his heart, when he found out that the nest of the evil tamarin was actually the head and skeleton of a demon beast, the surprise in his heart can be imagined, he is a naturally curious person, since he has found something incomprehensible, he naturally wants to find out, and now although he has looked carefully, he doesn't know the origin of this guy, and what is it...... What's the use of this thing?
When excavating, Qian Chao found that this thing was almost completely petrified, almost an ordinary stone, of course, much harder than ordinary stones, but even so, for alchemy, this skull did not have half a point.
If there is not so much ugly variegated color on this thing, I will get a larger study in the future and put it in it as an ornament, well, maybe it is good, but now this big skull has mixed colors, and it will be even more ugly to put it out.
Then this thing doesn't seem to be of much use.
"I'm going to take it back and show it to my master, her old man should know what kind of monster beast skull this is."
Tang Ping said, taking out an empty storage bag, this bag contains this skull, I am afraid that it will not be able to hold anything else.
"Ah Ping, what's the use of this thing?" Looking at Tang Ping's satisfied look, Yan Xuan asked her curiously.
"Hmm...... Even if it's a scholar," Tang Ping said, "Sister Yan, I am from the Jade Spirit Sect, the more you know about the knowledge of this spirit beast and demon beast, the better, I can't recognize this skull, but it really looks like a wolf head that Brother Lu said, but I know that such a big wolf can be born, oh no, it should be said that the real wolf is so big, it should be in the extreme north of our Central Continent, and it shouldn't appear here, so I'm curious, and I went back to ask my master, by the way, Qian boy, you write down this place, I'm going to talk to my master when I get back. ”
Qian Chao nodded, took out the map and began to mark it.
Tang Ping continued: "Actually, I have another guess about this skull, well, it's just a guess. ”
Hearing this, Qian Chao stopped the pen in his hand and asked, "What kind of speculation, let's hear it." ”
Tang Ping walked up to the big skull, put one hand on it, and said, "I think everyone should have heard of the legends of our Central Continent about the 'Millennium War' and the 'Battle across the Sea', right?" ”
This legend has naturally been heard by several people, and even Yan Xuan has heard people talk about it in Qixia Mountain, and it was only a story at that time.
"Naturally, I've heard of it, but what does this story have to do with this big skull?" Yan Xuan asked.
"The thousand-year war didn't happen to us, but the cross-sea battle behind the thousand-year war, our Five Spirits Sect was the battlefield of that war, there was no Five Spirits Sect at that time, and there were only five major sects in Central, and the monks of the five major sects joined forces to fight a protracted battle with foreign monks here in our place, and it is said that this battle was more fierce than the thousand-year war, and more people died."
Speaking of this, Tang Ping patted the big skull.
"This thing, although the knowledge of spirit beasts I have learned is limited, I also know that there are only such spirit beasts in the extreme north of the Central Continent, and such spirit beasts are extremely difficult to find, let alone tame, and besides, it is impossible for such spirit beasts to be killed......"
"Why is that?" Li Jian asked.
"That kind of spirit beast is called the true spirit beast, although it is not as good as the auspicious dragon Luan Feng is a divine beast-level existence, but it is the wolf ancestor of the world, known as the big heavenly wolf, in front of the great heavenly wolf, even if it is a monk at the level of the Yuan Infant, it is as vulnerable as a child!"
Silent......
