Chapter 45: The Mysterious Skeleton

Because the space in this is so small, the three of us can't turn around at all, and Ah Fang and I can't reach Ai Qin's angle, so we can only tilt our necks to look.

Aichen shone a small inconspicuous cavern above her head with a wolf's eye, and the beam of light shone into the depths, with no end in sight. I visualized the small cave with my peripheral vision, just big enough for a person to climb into.

"Let's climb in and see!" ”

I was about to echo this, but Aichen slammed the gun on his back, turned around and climbed in.

Ah Fang and I didn't have time to stop it, the key was that we couldn't reach out if we wanted to.

When Ai Qin's body was all inside, Ah Fang next to her said, "She also wants to grow up, and she doesn't want to be our object of protection all the time, we should give her this chance!" ”

Ah Fang is right, Ai Qin has to grow up after all, and he can't be protected by us all the time. I nodded to Ah Fang, who turned his head and climbed in after Ai Qin.

I didn't go in because there was an injury outside, and I asked Quanzi, "How are you?" The bats didn't kiss you! ”

Quan Zi joked over there, "Lao Tzu is sleeping in bed waiting for it to come, but it's not interested in me, you are their main dish!" ”

I knew that it was impossible for Quanzi to lie in bed, and he was just saying this to ease our emotions. Of course, I couldn't let him worry about it, and couldn't help but fight back, "Then please tell your bat uncle and aunt that my dish is salty and sour, and it is easy to get high blood pressure after eating it!" ”

Quanzi replied, "You better tell them this yourself!" Okay, I'm not going to talk nonsense with you, I'm still busy here! ”

I hung up my headset, turned and crawled towards the hole, pushed the wolf's eye forward, and followed Fong into the cave. The cave is supposed to have been formed naturally during the glacial period, showing a 30-degree slope, and the surrounding stone walls are smooth, and there are no traces of man-made, and climbing inside feels like crawling inside a huge steel pipe.

We climbed more than ten meters, and then I suddenly realized that we hadn't come in to find someone, why did we climb here, we didn't know where it led, and besides, it wasn't our previous plan.

I stopped and patted Ah Fang's feet in front of me, and then Ah Fang in front also stopped, I thought that Ah Fang and I thought of going together again, and I was about to speak, when Ai Qin in front suddenly said faintly, "Can you avoid it here?" I think so! I looked ahead suspiciously, and of course I couldn't see anything but Ah Fang's shoes.

Ah Fang asked, "What's the situation?" ”

"There's a line of blood here!" Ai Qin replied.

"That's it?"

"There's nothing else, just so much!" ”

It turned out that Ai Qin found the same handwriting in this small cave as before, and these handwriting was well hidden here, and was not discovered by the group of people behind them, so he left a complete passage!

The discovery of this sentence makes me feel that we have not entered this inexplicable little hole in vain, at least there are some valuable clues. After staying for a while, Ah Fang in front of her started to move forward again, and she stayed where Ai Qin had just stayed for a while before continuing. I followed her 'pace' closely, and where they were all staying, I noticed a line of writing in blood on the stone wall next to it, the handwriting had dried up and turned black, and it seemed to be some age.

'Can you avoid it here, I think so!' An inexplicable sentence, and written in his own blood, it looks a bit like a cursed blood book. My eyes stayed on the word 'it', thinking to myself what 'it' meant, why I was avoiding it, and why I was avoiding it here.

However, the current reality tells me not to have so many doubts now, because too many doubts will only make my actions more timid. I tried my best to crawl under the lines, and then brainwashed myself, telling myself that I didn't see anything, and then continued on, and after a while Ai Qin in front of me shouted, "The exit has arrived!" ”

I was happy to finally come out, I didn't think it was anything before, but since I looked at the line of blood in this hole, I always felt that the hole was gloomy, and it was really unpleasant to crawl in it with such a feeling.

I followed Ah Fang out of this small hole, and before I could rejoice, I was startled by the scene in front of me. I thought I was dazzled, because the space in front of me was exactly the same as the two caves we had entered in front of us!

Three identical caves, two of which also have a connecting line like a water pipe between them. If it really came naturally, it would be too sci-fi. Judging from the current traces, it is impossible to distinguish whether these are naturally formed or artificially excavated, if they are artificially excavated, it should be thousands of years ago, because there is no trace of modern construction from the cave, but if it is artificially slotted, then what is the meaning of the existence of these caves?

At this time, the cave was very quiet outside, we bowed down and walked out of the small cave, as soon as we got out of the cave, we saw a pair of mutilated human bones lying on a strange lie not far from the entrance of the cave, the posture was crawling, a pair of feet were towards the location of the cave, and what was even more outrageous was that the skull of this skeleton disappeared.

The three of us were all taken aback by the sight of this thing, but fortunately, we had seen a lot of various bones in previous operations, and we quickly recovered.

"Is this the same person who wrote blood in the cave?" Aichen asked.

"It's hard to say, there's nothing but a white bone right now!" I said, "Identity is definitely uncertain, let's continue to look for other clues to see if it will be one of the expeditions." ”

Ah Fang and I immediately walked over and began to examine the skeleton that had crawled out of the cave, and Ai Qin saw that we were gone, turned around and took out the fluorescent lamp and began to look for the remaining handwriting around the cave.

I stared at the bones in front of me, and the fear in my heart suddenly came to me. The freshness of this skeleton is a bit unbelievable, the bones are grayish-white, there are no traces of age, and there is no mold on the bones, if it had been dead for a long time and rotted naturally, this bone would not have been this color at all. In addition, human bones are rich in phosphorus, which is a rare delicacy for mold at the bottom of the pit, but there is nothing on this corpse.

I said to Ah Fang, "This man should have been dead for no more than a week, and the flesh on his body is not naturally rotten, as if it has been dissolved by something, you see, if it is eaten by some monster, these bones should be able to find bite marks." ”

Ah Fang said, "It's very strange, judging from the calcification of the bones, it doesn't look like they died not long ago, but it stands to reason that if it was a corpse from a long time ago, the color would not be so white!" ”

I pointed to the upper part of the deceased's spine, "Look at this, the place where the deceased's cervical vertebrae and skull are connected seems to have been cut off from the middle, judging from the smoothness of this trace, nine times out of ten it was cut off by a sharp weapon at one time, and the sharp weapon that cut him is not an ordinary sharp weapon, the marks on the bones are extremely smooth, and the one that can cut such marks on the hard bones is definitely a treasure that sharpens iron like clay." ”

Ah Fang was also at a loss like me, she said, "This, this, very problematic, where can his head go, and it is strange for him to lie like this?" ”

I looked at the skeleton in front of me, its body lying on its stomach, arms in front of me, and the bones of my hands clutching the ground. It seems that the deceased was trying his best to crawl outside the cave, and when he climbed to this position, he was suddenly cut off by someone and died a tragic death. Then the corpse quickly decomposed, leaving behind this pile of bones in front of our eyes.

At this moment, Ai Qin, who was looking for handwriting on the side, also had a harvest, and she shouted on the side, "You two come and see, there is something here?" Ah Fang and I didn't care about this unbelievable corpse for the time being, and ran to Ai Qin in the distance behind us.

The rock walls around the cave, like the previous two, were damaged by sapper shovels and steel drills.

Ai Qin found a piece of handwriting on a nearby stone wall, which had been written with a paint pen and was already beginning to blur. But for us today, the words are still recognizable.

The person who wrote this line should not be the one we met in the cave before who wrote the blood book, judging from the slender and beautiful handwriting in front of us, the person who wrote this sentence should be a woman.

"The Zhao family, you can't die in vain!" Ai Qin took the fluorescent lamp and read it out word by word, "The bullet is exhausted, and the fish is dead and the net is broken." ”

After listening to Ai Qin's words, I couldn't help but feel annoyed.

The Zhao family appeared here again, the word Zhao family followed us like a ghost, from the very beginning of the Maoershan tunnel that group of mercenaries appeared, they claimed to be the Zhao family, and later in the cave of the Grand Canyon also appeared in the Zhao family's words, and now here are a few inexplicable words.

"This Zhao family is really elusive, we can meet them everywhere!" Ah Fang said on the side.

Ai Qin answered, "It would be good if we could really meet them, I would definitely catch them and ask them to understand!" ”

When I saw the blurred handwriting in front of me, I suddenly felt a sense of nausea and panic in my heart. We didn't come in this time to guess the anagram, but there seems to be an invisible rope between these words and us that is pulling us, from the beginning of "longevity", "escape"... When I saw these words, I couldn't help but think of a few pictures, and those pictures were full of blood and despair.

But on the other hand, it seems that we are to blame for all this. No one forced us to study the words, we came in from the beginning to find people ... Thinking of this, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in my mind, damn, I seem to understand the connection between these anagrams.
