Chapter 22 Chapter 22 Urila

At this moment, the scorching sun illuminated the entire mountain valley brightly, even a little dazzlingly. However, none of this could conceal the terrifying aura emanating from the scene. Looking at the creepy wreckage, I couldn't stop thinking about a question—— —Why did the man in the blue cloth bring us here? Just as I was racking my brains to guess, there was a "rustling" sound behind me. I turned around and saw Ms. Qiao and the others strenuously pulling the weeds over.It is best not to let her see this kind of scene, so I went up to her, deliberately blocked her sight with my body, briefly described the situation in a flat tone, and finally expressed my doubts.

"Well! I knew that the man was trying to seduce me, but I didn't feel any malice, and I thought he was my father, so I followed him all the way. Of course, this was also to find out his ultimate purpose. When I saw the stone When I put on the blindfold that was obviously placed on purpose, I suddenly realized that he just wanted to tell us two things, one is the horror of wolves, and the other is to expose the true identities of these so-called expedition members." Miss Qiao said leisurely, While I was in a daze, I suddenly glanced sideways at the pile of wreckage, and then yelled "Ah!", covering my face with both hands, and buried my head on my shoulder recklessly.

"Hearing what you said, I really don't think that person has any malicious intentions, but why does he want us to know this? Could it be that this group of people really came to steal the golden coffin of the Huns?" Miss Jo's attention was diverted from fear. This trick really worked, Miss Qiao stopped trembling, turned around abruptly, stretched one hand behind her back, pointed at the pile of wreckage without looking at her and said: "Do you dare to take off that backpack? Maybe all the answers are hidden in it." I was dumbfounded when I heard it, and an indescribable nausea surged up immediately. It would be a horrible thing to untie the backpack from a wreckage with only the spine and head.I turned my eyes to Tianbao, hoping that this stupid boy would stand up, but what I saw was a bloodless face. I saw beads of sweat the size of soybeans on his forehead, and his maroon lips twitched slightly. A man is so dispirited that he is no different from a dead body.I secretly yelled "No", the toxicity of the Wolf Curse is beginning to be revealed, I'm afraid it will explode as soon as it gets dark, what should I do then?

I couldn't waste any more time, I took a deep breath, gritted my teeth, turned around and rushed towards the wreckage, resisting the nausea and pulling out the backpack... When the backpack fell into my hand completely, I couldn't help but feel a burst of disappointment, because it was so light , seems to be just an empty package.I quickly unbuttoned all the buttons and looked through the boxes, only to find some documents and a notebook with a cross necklace. "Sister Niyue, there's only this in it, and it's all in English, come and take a look." I handed these strange-smelling things to Ms. Qiao, she covered her nose and didn't dare to reach out to pick it up. When she saw the words on the cover of the notebook, she snatched it up and said solemnly: "This It is "Expedition Log", foreign explorers have the habit of taking notes, and will record the big and small things that happen every day. Now, their purpose, whereabouts, and encounters are all exposed."

Ms. Qiao untied the cross tied to the notebook as she spoke. At this moment, a map inside fell off. I picked it up and opened it. I recognized Jin Weishan at once, because it was similar to that of Wei Jianguo. The topographic map is exactly the same, but it is full of English annotations.I was about to show it to Miss Jo when she screamed, "White! The leader of this expedition is White..." "How to say?" I leaned over to look suddenly, and suddenly realized that I didn't understand English, so I had to turn my gaze to Miss Qiao, trying to read something from her expression.

"They're here to rob the tomb." Ms. Qiao gave me a surprised look, then flipped through the diary. This kind of way of talking like squeezing toothpaste is the most itchy, but I also know that you must not disturb her at this time, otherwise it will be more intermittent, so I picked up the map again and suddenly found that there is a line on it. The line drawn by the pen, this should be the route taken by this group of people, right?I hurriedly took out the wolfskin map to compare, and after a while, I finally saw the clue, and couldn't help crying, "This line is the dry Boletu River, just like the wolfskin map."

"Well! They also found Ulila." Miss Qiao replied without raising her head, as if she had read this result from the "Explorer's Log". "Then did they find the golden coffin of the Huns?" I asked hastily, but Ms. Qiao didn't answer, she was still turning over page after page, but her face became more and more ugly. After a long time, she closed the notebook and took a The face looked at me with fear. "What's the matter? Tell me quickly!" I grabbed her hand anxiously. "Do you know what Urila means? It is a mountain cursed by the devil. No one who enters can come out alive..." Miss Qiao cried hysterically, as if she was about to collapse. Already more ominous than ominous.

"It's all rumors. My grandfather, father, and Liu Ye have all gone in, and they all came back! And my grandfather and father died of the wolf curse, and Liu Ye is fine." I let it go tone, reassuring her by citing the family example.As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered that Liu Ye had been missing for nearly ten years, and he might have died in Ulila.Is there really such a thing as a devil's curse? "Don't get excited, drink some water and speak slowly." I helped Miss Qiao turn on the kettle, and tried to relax my expression so that she could calm down.

Perhaps because of the infection, Ms. Qiao finally stabilized her emotions, stared blankly at the distant mountain peaks, sighed lightly, raised the notebook in her hand, and said word by word: "This so-called expedition team is actually a group of tomb robbers who specialize in stealing historically valuable cultural relics from other countries. There are six of them in total, and the leader is White. Because the Huns once swept across Europe and Asia in history, and the West has always believed that the Huns are the descendants of the Huns. Therefore, cultural relics related to the Huns have extremely high market value in Western Europe. White obviously knows this well and has been looking for opportunities to rob graves and Target.Just a few months ago, he got news from a Chinese called W that the last Shanyu of the Huns was buried on Jinwei Mountain, and there was a golden coffin in the tomb, so he organized people to come. Search.Because the people of our country have a strong sense of defense against the enemy and special forces, they dare not enter rashly, so they have to sneak into Jinwei Mountain in the name of scientific investigation through neighboring countries. "

"Obviously, the W who provided the information to White is Wei Jianguo, because the pinyin of the word Wei starts with W, and the old ghost who passed the note, and the four people dressed as herdsmen are also Wei Jianguo's accomplices. This group of ethnic scum also Want to get a share of the action. No! Maybe that White is also being used, just like us, just a tool to find the golden coffin of the Huns." "That's not necessarily the case. Professional tomb robbers like White must be cunning and treacherous, and they are all outlaws. It's not so easy to want to cheat. And W doesn't have to be Wei Jianguo. Don't forget, the word for Wang Pinyin also starts with W!" Ms. Qiao looked at me with deep eyes and said, "Judging from the content of the diary, I suspect it is your Uncle Wang."

"Oh! What does the diary say, you tell it from beginning to end and listen to it." "It says that W is an old expert in Chinese archaeology. If he hadn't been instigated and promised to lead the way, White would not have come here in such a hurry, because Jinwei Mountain is too big, and although White is a tomb robber Experts, but they don't know much about Eastern burial ceremonies. It is almost impossible to find Shan Yu's tomb in the vast mountains. So they arranged to meet at the border, and then entered Jinwei Mountain together. However, On the way to the border, White accidentally got a piece of information from the herdsmen, he thought he already knew where Shan Yu’s tomb was, so he mercilessly dumped W, and led the team into the mountains to look for it before meeting up.” "What information? Do the herdsmen know the whereabouts of Shanyu's tomb?" I asked in amazement. "No! That information is just... just the legend of Ulila." Ms. Qiao said sadly, "White is indeed an old thief. He went all the way to inquire about the situation of Jinwei Mountain. Perhaps it was destined that he would meet a The old man who has been hunting and grazing in the mountains for many years, when he heard that they were going to Jinwei Mountain, the old man told them the legend of the devil's curse, and advised them not to approach one of the peaks, saying that the place is full of evil. The locals call it Ulila. How clever White is, he immediately thought of Shan Yu's tomb, and decided that these legends were just lies made up by the ancestors to protect the tomb from being disturbed. So he paid a lot of money to lure The old man led the way, but the old man refused to do anything, and after several struggles, he managed to take them to a place where Ulila could be seen, and the old man marked the location on the map and went back." "Oh! Is the location of Urila marked?" I suddenly opened the English map clipped in the "Expedition Log", and at the end of the route drawn with a pen, there was indeed a small black spot. Urila, who is in the dream department, is gone. "But what White didn't expect was that the devil's curse was not just a legend. Just as the six of them approached Urila, all kinds of disasters followed one after another..." Miss Qiao trembled subconsciously when she said this, obviously It was the description in the diary that made her terrified. At this moment, all I care about is whether Shan Yu's tomb has been stolen. After all, it is related to the fate of the whole family, and the life and death of those tomb robbers don't care at all.So he asked anxiously, "Did they succeed?" Ms. Qiao answered my question with her eyes. She turned her head to the pile of wreckage with disgust, as if to say—you see, this is their final end. I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and deliberately brought up the topic again, "This group of people just encountered wolves, and it's not in Urila, so what's the matter with the devil's curse?" "No! I think these two people who were eaten by wolves were lucky, at least it was only a short-term pain. In contrast, the other three were just..." Miss Qiao said, as if thinking of something, Suddenly pressed his chest, bent over and retched for a while.After he got his breath, he said intermittently: "As soon as they got close to Ulila, they felt inexplicable panic. No one could explain why. They just felt that every plant, every tree, every earth and every stone was full of evil and fear. When facing the peak of Urila, suddenly, many big bugs appeared from all directions..." "Ah! What kind of bug? Could it be that disgusting intestinal maggot again?" "Judging from the description in the log, it does look like intestinal maggots, but it's even more terrifying." Ms. Qiao suppressed her nausea and said, "This group of people have also heard that the Mongolian death worms are powerful, so they immediately backed away, but they walked in front of them. The three in front couldn't escape, they were so shocked that they couldn't move, they could only let out screams. And then, a scene that was soul-stirring happened... It was written in the diary that after the three fell to the ground, Whiteburn I wanted to go to the rescue, but at this moment, those big bugs actually got into the mouths of the three people who couldn't move... The stomachs of the three people immediately swelled up, but they were still conscious and kept shouting..." "Just be eaten alive like this?" I spat, feeling extremely disgusted in my heart. "It's nothing if you just die like this." Miss Qiao lowered her head and rewound the necklace with the cross on the notebook. After doing this, she said in a trembling tone: "This White has a bit of conscience, no Fleeing for his own life, he and the other two stayed in the distance and waited for two days and one night. During this period, the three attacked guys lay on the ground and kept screaming. The big worms in their stomachs suddenly came out, but before they could catch their breath, another worm that was waiting around got in again... and so on, and every time they came in and out, the bodies of these people were obviously thinner. , like a cucumber that is gradually wilting..." Ms. Qiao couldn't continue, she raised her head and took a deep breath, then suddenly changed the subject and said hastily: "Later, a pack of wolves suddenly appeared on the mountain and pounced on them. The three of them fled in fright. At this moment, the owner of the log got separated from White. He and the other ran eastward desperately. Running here, panting by the rocks, they suddenly realized that they were surrounded by wolves... The owner of the diary knew that there was no hope of escape, so he wrote down this horrible moment beside this stone.If you can understand English, you can feel how desperate, helpless and painful he is in the following paragraphs..." Although I wish this group of people would die, it's just because everyone has the same goal and they are competitors. After listening to Ms. Qiao's narration, and looking at the messy and terrifying scene, I can't help but feel a sense of sadness. After all, everyone is like-minded, and to put it bluntly, they are all thieves, but in front of wolves and bugs, we are all just prey, and maybe our end will be the same. "It is estimated that White has run back to the border." I paused and said, "He must not be reconciled. He must be waiting there for W to meet up, and then come again when he finds a chance." "That's right! That's why the words 'White has met at the border' appear on Wei Jianguo's note." "You said these two people ran east? Well, Ulila is to the west of here!" I looked at the wreck again, frowned and said, "I just don't know how far they ran." "I think it should be very close. There is no path to go in this deep mountain. Even if you give you half a day, you can't run for a few miles. Besides, the wolves only attack when the target is close at hand. How can you run away?" Far?" "That's it." I looked towards the east excitedly, and when my sight fell on the hillside in front of me, I couldn't help yelling "Wow", and I almost collapsed to the ground. "The pack of wolves have been there for a long time, and they haven't moved. They're like rocks." Tianbao, who was sitting in the grass, said suddenly, his tone sounded strange. "Why didn't you say it earlier?" "I wanted to say, but I suddenly had a very strange feeling that they were my friends, no! They were my relatives, and they came to welcome me." Tianbao said dumbly, looking at the face that looked like a dead person. Not a trace of expression. "Are you sick?" Miss Qiao leaned over, reached out to touch Tianbao's forehead, suddenly screamed, looked at me in surprise and said, "He...how did his eyes turn green?" "Actually, they came when you were looking at the diary, one after another, and they all squatted on it obediently..." Tianbao was still muttering incoherently, as if he was a different person, and my hair stood on end. . "Brother, when the sun goes down, can you knock me out? Or die." Tianbao suddenly looked at me, with painful tears in his light green eyes. "Don't be discouraged, Ulila is nearby, I must find the golden coffin before dark." "I think Tianbao is right. These wolves seem to be harmless." Ms. Qiao pulled down my sleeve, pointed to the hillside in front of me and said, "Wolves are very cunning animals that live in packs and know how to divide and cooperate. One or two old, weak, sick and disabled ones appear in front of you, reducing your sense of threat, and even tempting you to catch them. The other sides surround them from all sides. And you can see above, there are more than 20 of them, and they have not been seen for so long. movement." "Then why?" I scratched my head subconsciously, and looked at Tianbao again, only to see that he shrunk into a ball with sluggishness, his limbs began to twitch suddenly, and the clothes were wet with the constant cold sweat.Suddenly, an idea flashed through my mind, and I couldn't help shouting out—"I see, it's the Wolf Curse." "Wolf curse?" "Yes! Once the wolf spell is activated, it will show the characteristics of a wolf, and even emit the smell of a wolf. I know this best. If you don't believe me, you will hear about it." "You mean, the pack of wolves thought we were the same kind?" "Hmm! Maybe he still regards Tianbao as the wolf king!" "It's no wonder that the sneak attack stopped once before. It turned out that just in time for him to start the wolf spell, the wolves smelled him. The wolves couldn't see the wolf king. Maybe they had just died, and they took Tianbao by accident. It's not impossible to become a wolf king..." Miss Qiao's thoughts jumped quickly, and she thought of many things at once. "Now we don't have to worry about the future. Let's go to Ulila as soon as possible, and find Shan Yu's tomb to solve the curse for you." I pretended to be both excited and relaxed, and stretched out my hand to pull Tianbao up without saying a word about the bugs.Of course Miss Qiao understood what I meant, she also put on a smiling face, said some words of encouragement to Tianbao, and helped him tidy up his soaked clothes. Taking advantage of this moment, I spread all the maps on the ground, and after some comparison, I suddenly found that the route drawn with a pen on the English map was actually S-shaped. From this point of view, we have already entered the range of the wolf skin map. What is even more surprising is that the black dot on the English map and the wolfskin map are in the same position as the vein eye of the dragon porpoise mound drawn by Ms. Qiao. All three pictures point to a mountain peak in the west.I looked up, isn't this the mountain with the glacier on top?It turned out to be Urila! I quickly called Ms. Qiao over, and after explaining the situation, she frowned and said, "That's the center of the pulse eye. It seems that Bei Danyu is really a master of Fengshui. Maybe you are right. The rise of Liao and Yuan is It's related to Longzhuo Tomb. But it's not good news, for a character like this, his tomb must be unambiguous, I'm afraid there will be countless organs." "I'm not afraid even if it's a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire." Tianbao interjected.When he learned that Shan Yu's tomb was close at hand, he was obviously not so depressed, and his illness seemed to be much lighter. At this moment, he straightened his waist and put on an indifferent look. "Courage is certainly important, but some things can only be achieved through knowledge, experience, and even luck..." Ms. Qiao said blankly, looking at the iceberg not far away. Under the scorching sun, the three of them walked westward along the foot of the mountain with their arms, and started a new journey. Turning around the mountain in front, the towering Urila suddenly appeared in front of everyone. In an instant, everyone stopped and looked at this suffocating mountain with surprised expressions.Such a shocking mountain view is indeed rare. Although there is still a distance, I can already feel its momentum, and the layered mountain body makes it even more weird-there is a thick ink-like mountain forest underneath, reaching halfway up the mountain. At that time, it suddenly turned into a tall and straight stone cliff, and further up, the thick glacier pierced into the sky.From this angle, the entire Urila is like a sharp wolf fang, only piercing a hole in the blue sky. "Look, there is a bare section at the foot of the mountain, which looks like a dry ancient river bed, and it is in the shape of an S." Miss Qiao suddenly shouted. "That should be the Boletu River. The black dot on the wolf fur map is right by the river. From this point of view, this iceberg is 100% Urila." "Come on, let's go over and have a look." Miss Qiao seemed more excited than me, and ran forward in a stride.It's no wonder that she always believed that old man Qiao was trapped in Ulila and was calling to her, so she desperately searched for it. After several hardships, she finally arrived at the destination. The excitement and anxiety can be imagined. Looking at Tianbao next to him, he was obviously about to lose his hold, his pale and bloated face was covered with beads of sweat, like a floating corpse that had just been scooped up from the shore. In seconds, he subconsciously made strange movements—bending his knees like a wolf, and then crawling forward... "Come on, I'll carry you on my back." I couldn't help but put Tianbao on my back and headed straight for Miss Qiao. It is not too far from here to Urila. After passing through a dense spruce forest, the ancient riverbed full of mystery and terror is in front of you.In fact, every step of the way I walked with trepidation, the description of the bugs in the diary appeared in my mind from time to time, maybe they are dormant in front, should I stop and observe clearly before I go?I was about to stop Ms. Qiao, but she suddenly turned around and said solemnly, "Do you feel the evil spirit here?" "What... what evil spirit?" "Magnetic evil among the seven evil spirits of metaphysics, modern science says it is aura, a natural force that invisibly affects people's consciousness, perception, and thinking nerves." "I really don't understand this, but I do feel flustered." "Hey! Why am I so confused, even Luo Geng forgot to bring it." Miss Qiao stomped her feet anxiously, her face full of regret.Seeing her reaction like this, I know the seriousness of the matter, but I don't understand what happened, how should I deal with it?Can only stand stupidly. "Didn't you say that Bei Danyu once used a mysterious formation to thwart the pursuers! I guess he also set up one near here, let's go outside the forest and have a look." "Then be careful, don't make the same mistakes as foreigners." Thinking of the horrible bug, I couldn't help shivering again.However, at this moment, there was nothing that could stop Ms. Qiao from looking for her father, no matter the worm or the magnet, she took a deep breath and walked slowly towards the river bed step by step.I picked up Tianbao and followed closely, my eyes staring at the ground in front of me warily. At this time the sun has passed the peak of Urila, but there is still a good line of sight on the river bed, because this bare S-line is covered with sheep's back stones washed by ice water. It is particularly dazzling in the valley, looking from a distance, it looks like a winding white snake. Miss Qiao was very calm at this moment. She walked to the middle of the river bed and looked up at the surrounding scenery intently.But I was full of fear in my heart. From the moment I stepped into the riverbed, I always felt that those insects were just under my feet, lurking and peeping in some cracks in the rocks.This inexplicable sense of horror accumulated more and more, and finally almost occupied my entire consciousness: I only felt that the entire riverbed was a huge worm, wriggling non-stop... "Ah! What's the matter with you? Are you too tired?" Miss Qiao rushed over suddenly, stared at my face in astonishment, and then helped me put Tianbao off my back. "No! I'm just inexplicably scared." "It's under the influence of the magnetic brake. It's okay. Just focus on one thing, such as how to find Shan Yu's tomb, and don't think about other things." Miss Qiao took out the compass as she spoke, and then After taking a look, he yelled, "Not good! This... this pointer is spinning faster than the fan. It must be the center of the magnetic brake under our feet. Let's leave quickly." At this moment, I was still in a daze. When I heard this, I quickly reached out to hug Tianbao. At this moment, Tianbao suddenly opened his strange green eyes and screamed like a shrew—"Bug, bug!" Here we come..." Then, his mouth opened wide, and his stomach swelled up, just like the one described in the diary, being attacked by bugs. I suddenly felt dizzy, and there was a gust of cold air on my spine. It was so cold that even my blood vessels were frozen. After a second, I looked around like an electric shock, and saw the bare river bed densely packed with intestinal maggots. The squirming flesh-red bodies, like a sticky torrent, are enveloping us. "What should I do?" I yelled at Miss Qiao, but I couldn't make a sound, only my throat twitched violently. "Quick! Close your eyes quickly. What you see is just an illusion. It's the magic of the magnetism. Don't think about it. Come on! Let's sing together..." Ms. Qiao was a little incoherent in anxiety, and then she really Singing - "Let us swing the oars, the boat pushes the waves..." With the sound of Miss Qiao's singing, the soul-stirring scene in front of me suddenly disappeared.Seeing that it worked, I hurriedly hummed along, but I was tone deaf, and my heart was still in fear, so I lost the tune when I spoke, and even I felt creepy, so I had to give up. On this side, Tianbao has closed his mouth, and his stomach seems to have returned to its original shape, but he is still so sluggish, with his eyes slightly open, curled up motionless on the ground.Could it be that he has been lying so quietly all this time, and the so-called shouting and distending stomach are just my hallucinations? At this time, Miss Qiao was still singing loudly, and the brisk tone echoed in the secluded part of the valley for a long time, which made me feel so relaxed and happy, and I was a little intoxicated for a while, until I was kicked lightly by her.When I came back to my senses, I saw her pointing to the foot of Ulila Mountain while she was singing, obviously asking me to go to the slope over there. I picked up Tianbao knowingly and followed her slowly towards Ulila.When we stepped out of the dry river bed, the inexplicable panic suddenly weakened. This feeling was particularly obvious, like a hand that was tightening the neck was slowly loosening. Even if Miss Qiao stopped singing, I didn’t feel flustered. . Even so, neither of us dared to stop, and kept walking up the hillside until my hands were so sore that I couldn't hold Tianbao, and then I slumped down on the grass one after another. "It's so dangerous! Just now you almost got angry and told you not to think about other things, why didn't you listen?" Miss Qiao criticized me before she could sit still. Seeing that I was a little embarrassed, she changed the subject and looked down. The riverbed said: "I can see that this magnetic evil array is based on the S-shaped Boletu River, which was repaired by Beidanyu. Do you know? We are lucky, if the river is not diverted Dry, the power is at least a hundred times stronger than now, it's no wonder people don't go crazy when they get close!" "Isn't it? It's so mysterious." "Where is the mystery? It can all be explained by scientific principles." Miss Qiao changed her sitting position and said with a serious face: "First of all, it is stone. This Jinwei Mountain is mostly ore, and there is a lot of iron stone mixed in it." , these stones have strong magnetism. Then there is the water flow. The Boletu River is formed by the melting of glacial snow. The ore will increase its magnetism under the erosion and friction of these ice-crushed snow water, especially this S-shaped The zone can accumulate into an unimaginably huge magnetic field, which can affect people's nerves and make people in a semi-crazy state. Combining these three points, Bei Danyu can produce the effect of magnetic brake as long as he controls the speed of the water flow at the upper end of the S shape. " "Then... why do everyone have the same hallucinations, seeing bugs?" "This question is very simple, because you believe that there are bugs here from the beginning. If you heard that there are tigers here before, then you will hallucinate tigers. This is all subconsciousness. Trust the foreign grave robbers The same is true for thieves, they must have heard the old herdsman talk about the 'Mongolian Death Worm', and when they were affected by the magnetic evil, they saw it naturally, and finally frightened themselves to death." "You mean, there are no bugs at all, and those three people died of fright? How can you explain the shriveled corpses into mummies?" "It's not all psychological hints. This kind of consciousness energy is very powerful. Scientists have done experiments, saying that ice water was boiled water and poured it on the experimenter's arm. As a result, he really had scalded blisters..." Ms. Qiao spoke seriously, and looked at the S-shaped riverbed from time to time, as if to verify her inference.Suddenly, her face darkened, and she jumped up with a "whoosh", but stood still, her eyes fixed on the distant mountains and forests. This sudden change meant that something happened. I was stunned for a moment, and an ominous premonition suddenly emerged in my heart. I hurriedly followed her line of sight, but I couldn't see why, which made people feel even more uneasy. "It's him, it's really him..." Miss Qiao suddenly cried and ran towards the forest. Could it be that old man Joe appeared?I jumped up reflexively, and looked back at Tianbao. He was squinting his eyes and curled up on the ground quietly. From a distance, Urila is clearly divided into three layers: green, gray, and white. The bottom of the mountain is covered with weeds and gravel, and further up, there is a large dark green mountain forest. Miss Qiao is standing in the miscellaneous At the junction of grass gravel and pines and spruces, the head droops and the shoulders tremble slightly, as if hiding its face and crying. "What's the matter?" I yelled uneasily as I ran, but Miss Qiao turned her head around without answering, and just pointed forward with her finger.I took a closer look, only to find that there was a stone nearly one meter high in front of her, and what she was referring to was a group of furry things on the stone. The ominous feeling is getting stronger... "This...isn't this your daddy's dog? Why did it die here?" I looked at Miss Qiao in astonishment, and saw her pale face covered with tears, her lips opening and closing to say something, but I couldn't utter a word for a long time. Old man Qiao's most beloved baby died in a barren mountain. This is definitely not a good sign. I understand Miss Qiao's mood at this time, and I know that it is useless to comfort me now. The first thing to do is to check the cause of death of this mangy dog. Maybe it can tell us what happened what? Thinking of this, I took a step forward and carefully looked at this disgusting guy.It was lying upright on the stone, dirty like a rag, but no wounds or bloodstains could be seen. Judging from the mud-stained four limbs, it must have dug the soil before it died. Moreover, it was a hasty and long-term digging, because many of the sharp claws had fallen off or broken off.Although the callus dog has been specially trained to dig the soil and dig holes, but being so panicked and working so hard shows that it also feels threatened.What makes it fight to the death?My heart was clouded again, and I subconsciously looked at its face, only to see a pair of protruding and cloudy eyes, which seemed to be filled with extreme fear and unwillingness. At this time, Miss Qiao was still standing there stunned, and after listening to my description of the dead dog, she suddenly cried hysterically: "My father is right below, find out the hole quickly! I want to save him, we To save him..." Although Ms. Qiao was a little delirious, she thought to me that the escape hole dug by the dog must be nearby, and old man Qiao must still be down there, because if he came out, he would not ignore the dog Yes, that is his closest comrade-in-arms, even if it is a dead dog. I searched around the stone, and as soon as I turned to the other side, I saw a hole more than 20 centimeters wide, and the soil on it was still fresh. This should be the hole dug out by the callus.I squatted down to take a look, and saw that the inside was unfathomably dark, and there were gusts of wind blowing out, which meant that the bottom was not sealed, and there must be other openings. Of course, it was just such a small hole, old man Joe It is impossible to come out from here, so I hurriedly called Miss Qiao to come and see. Miss Qiao rushed over, she was stunned for a moment, then she lay down on the ground, calling out to the entrance of the cave in an extremely sharp and trilling voice.However, until she was hoarse and pinched her neck and kept coughing dryly, there was still a dead silence below, not even an echo, as if everything was swallowed by this bottomless pit. "Where's the shovel? Where's the shovel?" She tugged at my backpack in a daze, completely forgetting that all the tools were in her backpack. "Let me do it! Go and bury the dog." I untied the small shovel and gently pushed her away. First, I was worried that there might be some monster hidden in the cave, and second, I was afraid that she would get too excited, so I found an excuse to send her away, so as not to get more and more impatient here, after all. This is not something that can be done in a short while.Unexpectedly, she didn't appreciate it, so she grabbed the small shovel and started digging the soil in a trance. Seeing that she couldn't hold her back, I simply stepped back and sat on the rock doing exercises to relax my muscles and bones, because I knew she wouldn't be able to hold on for long, and I had to do it when the time came. Sure enough, after a while, Miss Qiao slowed down, panting heavily, her frail body seemed to be crumbling.I was about to go over to help, when my hand accidentally touched the dead dog next to me, and there was a "pop", a blue light flashed suddenly, and then, there was a burst of needle pricking pain from my fingertips. pain. "This guy is charged?" I yelled in pain.Ms. Qiao glanced back, did not answer, and continued to dig the soil profusely with sweat. Could it be that this guy was electrocuted to death by intestinal maggots?Thinking of that disgusting thing, I trembled, and suddenly realized a doubt that had been hidden in my heart all along, that is-why the corpse was not swallowed by the wolves.You must know that a wolf's sense of smell is better than a dog's. This dog has been dead for at least a day or two. It is unbelievable that the body can be preserved. The wolf will not think it is too ugly, so disgusting that it even loses its appetite, right?There must be another reason. I scratched my head, and turned my gaze to the stiff corpse of the callus dog again, but after looking for a long time, I still couldn’t find any trace of electric shock. Finally, I couldn’t hold back my curiosity, and lightly touched it with the back of my palm again. However, this time it was Nothing happened, so I took the liberty of grabbing the dog by its legs and hoisting it up... so weird!What happened to the electric shock just now?Just as I was wondering, I suddenly felt a chill on my back, like a piece of ice sticking to my spine... "Ah!" I jumped up, my hands and feet danced wildly involuntarily, until I dropped the backpack, the biting coldness suddenly dissipated.Is that the blue diamond in the bag?I was shocked, and immediately thought of this mysterious stone. Could it be that its energy must be stimulated by electricity?Or does it draw power?No wonder the intestinal maggots that can discharge are so afraid of it.I opened the backpack tremblingly, and after a burst of cold air came out, I saw the blue light flickering in the bag, and that weird blue diamond seemed to have come back to life again.
