12. Ancient battlefields where there was a movement
The filthy thing was nothing but a slime-stained piece of flesh that, along with the mutilated skeleton around it and the dark red stream, made a creepy picture.
Without exception, Wang Wenyuan, who came up, was also frightened, only to see his face change instantly, and then stumbled, so that he almost "reimbursed" the box.
"It seems that you don't have much guts." Seeing this, Gu Yuexi, who was relieved, couldn't help but joke, saying in her heart that fortunately, the mastermind behind the scenes did not appear, otherwise the box would really not be able to be saved.
"Is there one?" Realizing that he was out of shape, he hurriedly looked away, and the fear in his heart subsided.
"Be careful." She didn't say much, but turned the light up slightly, and then slowly leaned forward.
The stream was not deep, about a foot deep, but she still stopped, carefully observed the situation in the stream, and made sure that there was nothing abnormal, before passing quickly.
"Wenyuan, how much do you know about the history of Assam?" After crossing the stream, Gu Yuexi suddenly turned her head and looked at him with a slightly serious expression.
"Just ask, girl." Of course, he couldn't reveal his hole cards, so he had to deal with it in a hurry.
"Did Chador, the third king of Zhe Mengxiong, invade the eastern edge of Assam when he conquered Brookba in the east?" Gu Yuexi glanced at it, and then asked.
"Yes, I remember that in late November 1709, when the chief of Brukpaghalai Puzong Dazhen Gyatso raised an army in the city of Sugiya on the eastern edge of Assam and attacked the stronghold of Tsemengxiong in the south of Brukpa, King Chador ordered the head of the ten thousand households, Pazhuden, to send troops to annihilate the stubborn enemy."
Gu Yuexi smiled slightly, then sighed and said, "Yes, it's a pity that Pazhuden is just a general and doesn't know how to govern." ”
Wang Wenyuan was stunned for a moment, and for a moment he couldn't understand why she asked this question, in fact, the answer just now was also a fragment he inadvertently turned over in an old book, as for the outcome of that war, he naturally didn't know.
Seeing that he was no longer speechless, Gu Yuexi had probably guessed his true identity, but she still said calmly: "After taking the city of Sujiya, Pazhuden slaughtered all the men in the city and handed over the women to the soldiers for recreation. ”
Wang Wenyuan listened to her finish with a little blankness, and then nodded a little stiffly.
Seeing this, she did not take the opportunity to debunk his "fake identity", but squatted on the ground and motioned for him to come over quickly.
"You see, this brown fragment is the rattan armor used by the Zhukeba people in the early 18th century, and there are traces of bows and arrows on it, and this bone, which has a deep scratch on its surface, so it can be roughly inferred that Pazhuden first fought a bloody battle with the tribe of the Gelaipzong in the city, and then drove the prisoners and civilians into the open area and carried out an organized massacre with bows and swords."
"Miss Gu, do you mean that Sadiya Village is exactly the place where the Gelaipuzong tribe raised troops back then--- Sujiye City?" Seeing that she was very interested in these things, he asked curiously.
"Yes and no." Gu Yuexi was silent for a moment, and said slowly, but between the words, there were doubts.
"What do you mean?" Wang Wenyuan frowned, unable to understand the meaning of her words.
"In short, after the destruction of Sugiya City by the Bodhians and the Remcha, it moved, and the location after the move is today's Sadia Village." She sighed and uttered a shocking message.
"Move?" Wang Wenyuan was taken aback, a ruin, can it move?
"This is also something I don't understand, but it did happen, not only did it move more than 200 kilometers horizontally, but it also moved vertically, otherwise, how could it have come to the underground space of Sadia Village?"
"Girl, how do you explain the minced meat on the ground, and the mucus on its surface?" To be honest, Wang Wenyuan was not interested in the so-called "ancient battlefield", but he was quite concerned about these unrotten minced meat and extremely viscous liquids, because looking at them, the hairs on his body stood up.
"Unsolved mysteries." She didn't seem to know either, but she was much more calm than he was.
"In that case, let's get out of here." Hearing this, he hurriedly hugged the box, quickened his pace, and distanced himself from her.
Gu Yuexi couldn't help laughing out loud when she saw his slightly flustered appearance, and at the same time, she wondered when the mysterious old man would appear, now that they had arrived at the "secret" location of the underground space, and the treasure chest used for trading was also in their hands, it stands to reason that it was time for him to appear.
However, things are so weird, not only did the old man not show up, but even in her brain, there were no strange memories.
Gu Yuexi shook her head helplessly, focusing all her attention on the road.
Before she knew it, she noticed that the road ahead was getting brighter and brighter, so much so that they didn't need a light anymore.
"Girl, it seems that they like you very much." Wang Wenyuan suddenly stopped and looked at her with a complicated expression.
"Who?" Gu Yuexi looked at it subconsciously, but she quickly understood that they were the sand flies that had chased her before, and at this moment, there were at least a dozen small red envelopes on her arms, and the neck and cheeks were also extremely itchy.
"You dare to take advantage of me." She smiled wryly while looking at Wang Wenyuan, who was also bitten badly.
"I finally came across a beautiful and delicious "food", of course, I have to eat more. He saw that she was in a very good mood, so he couldn't help but joke.
"You owe it." Gu Yuexi immediately showed a "fierce and vicious" look, as if she wanted to put him to death.
"Hmm...... Spare your life. When he saw this, he immediately relented, and now he still needs her to show him the way, what should he do if he annoys her?
"Don't take it as an example." Although Gu Yuexi said it extremely decisively, in her heart, it was a different scene.
Unconsciously, not far ahead, an open and bright hole appeared, at this time, the sunlight outside was a little dazzling, presumably it should be noon.
"I'm finally out of this damn place." Wang Wenyuan took a sharp breath, and exhaled slowly, and in an instant, his mood became happy, in addition to the joy of the rest of his life after the catastrophe, there was also the air here, with a sweet smell of grass and trees, inhaling it was refreshing.
And Gu Yuexi was stunned in place, the "main event" of the underground space of the heart path had not yet begun, and it was over?
"Girl, what are you, can't you believe it?" Wang Wenyuan was deeply surprised by her "dumb" appearance, thinking about what happened to her, and for the rest of her life, she couldn't see a trace of joy.
"Nothing." Gu Yuexi lowered her head and motioned for him to open the wooden box, since the so-called "secret" of the underground space was not seen, then there was no need to keep the wooden box, and Kobron had said that her father was here to find it, she wanted to see what was inside.
"Girl, you can't open it." Wang Wenyuan stared at the iron lock on the box, which was only the size of a thumb, revealing a look of disbelief.
"Get out of the way." As she spoke, she drew her long knife and slashed at the lockring.
The "click......" lock only made a crisp sound, and there were not even knife marks on its surface.
On the other hand, Gu Yuexi was shocked and took three steps back.
"It's weird." Wang Wenyuan looked at her rather "funny" appearance, and knew that it would not work to smash the lock violently, so he had to take out a piece of wire, intending to destroy the lock cylinder and slowly pry it open.
But what he didn't expect was that this lock didn't have a keyhole, and its bottom was flat.
"It can't be deliberately arranged." Wang Wenyuan glanced at her, and the meaning was self-evident: destroy the box?
She hesitated for a moment and shook her head slightly, at the moment they didn't know what was in the box, and it was not a wise move to destroy the box rashly.
"Then let's move on, preferably finding a place to rest before dark." Seeing this, Wang Wenyuan had to obediently lift the box and walk briskly forward.
Gu Yuexi nodded and followed, while carefully looking at the surrounding scenery.
It was a dense forest, with a clear stream running through it, and the banks of the stream were covered with colorful wildflowers, and every now and then a few small brown squirrels flashed.
Gu Yuexi was a little confused, when she entered Sadiya Village before, she had carefully observed the scenery around the village and its topographic map, and she had never found such a large area of forest, and this stream did not exist.
Could it be that they are already far away from Sadia Village at the moment?
So where are they now?
Without exception, Wang Wenyuan also slowed down his pace, scratching his head, looking surprised.
"Follow the creek, and not far ahead, there is a village." Seeing this, Gu Yuexi hurriedly cheered him up. ”
Wang Wenyuan looked at her suspiciously, and his handsome face was as handsome as a knife and an axe, revealing a trace of incomprehension.
Gu Yuexi simply walked in front of him, in fact, she was not only "deceiving" him, but also "fooling" herself, after all, if there is hope in her heart, she will have the motivation to go on.
About a quarter of an hour later, she suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps 100 meters away at 11 o'clock.
She quickly flashed behind a large tree, and at the same time, clenched the long knife in her hand to prevent the unexpected.
Wang Wenyuan didn't hesitate, only to see him hurriedly squatting in the grass, and then slowly leaned towards the source of the sound.
However, before he could get closer, he saw a small yellow thing rushing out of the reeds beside the stream, and fled deep into the forest.
In a hurry, Gu Yuexi picked up the grappling hook gun and pulled the trigger on it.
Under the pressure of the air current, the grappling hook will hit the body of the prey like an off-string arrow.
The little thing was knocked unconscious in an instant, and when I looked closely, it turned out to be a round hare.
She couldn't help but swallow her saliva, to be honest, she was exhausted and hungry now, and there was prey delivered to the door, don't be in vain.
But before she could pick up the hare, she felt a small rough hand grasp her blouse.
She was shocked, and hurriedly turned around, wanting to see who it was, so bold.
