Otherworldly Merchant
Chapter 1553: Straight Scale Snake
Jiang Da Fish clearly saw the problem, he had the answer in his heart, but he refused to say it clearly, always ask me what I think first.
But I can't stop talking.
He has doubts or even hesitations about my true strength, and if I hide anything else deliberately, he will certainly be more cautious, which would not be conducive to the implementation of my plan.
I pointed to the two corpses and explained: “Although they were blurred, the real culprits were not stone men. ”
Fan Chung glanced at the corpse and looked at me. "How did that die? ”
“Crossbow arrows!” I finished pointing at the neck of the two men.
Dead bodies have been pressed into blur, but because they have been dumped at the same time, blood and visceral projections are regular. The neck is less flesh and less organic, so it's relatively clear. If you look closely, you can see that both of them have a little purple and black dot on their necks.
After the penetration of the product, the bleeding on the wound was not exhausted, and then the old and new stacks formed by the secondary rolling. Though the holes are deformed by squeezing, this little purple and black dot is the best proof.
As soon as Fan Chung listened to me, the knife cut open his neck. Indeed, there was a small hole as thick as copper money and a clear scratch mark on the neck bone.
It's just muddy and messy, and you can't find the crossbow.
“The huge difference in height between the two men, with each hitting only one crossbow and all hitting the same spot, suggests that it was not an organ, but an artificial one. ”
“The hole in the back neck is small and the hole in the throat is large, which means that the crossbow was fired from behind. Once again, they grabbed the position of the gourd rope, most likely when they were about to escape, and were found to be executed immediately, and the murderer was most likely their companion! ”
“And the stone man, most likely, fell at the last minute before his death. ”
“Mr. Zhang, are you saying that the big stone was brought down by these two victims? How is that possible?” Lina didn't know when to swim to the bottom of the pit, and I was very puzzled to ask.
I pointed down to the other end of the pit, and I said, "See that pit in black? ”
“That's a trace of gunpowder explosion. This thing was originally invented by Alchemists, and during the Tang Dynasty, they made one of the most powerful and primitive grenades, commonly known as Bomb Thunder! In addition to gunpowder, there is a trigger consisting of bronze and white phosphorus. Once the machine is removed, it is shaken violently and the two sheets of copper are rubbed violently, causing the white phosphorus to ignite itself, thus triggering the gunpowder. ”
“Bombing lightning is not restricted even under water. They blow up the dirt beneath the stone man's feet. If the stone man is both tall and heavy, and the force is unstable, he naturally falls. I just can't figure out why they did it. ”
“Do they want to hold the rope down so the killer can't escape?” Lina asked with some confusion.
“Impossible!” Van Chung shook his head, very resolutely interposed: “Even if the gourd rope was pressed for a while, just cut it off and connect it, they are... hmm? I know!”
He suddenly remembered something and slapped his head hard and shouted, “They must have found something and didn't want to be robbed! If it's not on you, it must be stuck on the gourd rope and I want to borrow the rope to pass it on to my colleagues outside! ”
He said that everyone was suddenly awake, grabbing the gourd rope and searching carefully.
This gourd rope, though long, can be pressed to the bottom of the pit only five or six meters.
Soon, Lina shouted, “I found out! Here!”
We looked over and saw Lina holding up a piece of rope with a broken airbag hanging from it.
The airbag was already rotten, and there was a small black cloth bag hidden in it, wrapped tightly around the rope.
Fan Chung carefully cut the cloth bag with a long knife, revealing a bright little snake inside.
The little snake shines brightly all over her body, one hand long and short, bent, but all the way from head to tail, along with the middle axis of the entire torso, is in a straight line, and looks almost like a flutter.
The craftsmanship of the engraving is superb, even the eyelids and every square armor are extremely realistic. Only Shaw and Xuxu look as if they were alive under the fluctuations of the watermark.
I looked at it successively with Jiang Daqi, and I didn't know what age it came from, and I didn't even know what material it was.
Like jade and non-jade, like stone and non-stone, but not metal, it can be held in the hand but extremely heavy, and it is many times heavier than the same size of gold.
Lina took out the instrument for half a day and was surprised to say, "This element has never been discovered! ”
Jiang Dazhutong said: “Since you found it first, leave it with you. It must be extremely important for the two of them to steal this from each other as they risk their lives. Perhaps this is the ultimate solution to the mystery of the relics. Stay in formation, return to the road and continue towards the ruins. ”
The tracking of the water gourd has finally yielded results, and although many more mysteries have emerged, it has also been rewarding. It was determined that those people had died as a result of an artificial civil war, not by other unknown forces, and we relieved ourselves temporarily.
Six of us in a row, swimming in the established order.
Turn the turning fork and continue towards the ruins.
The darker the waters ahead, the more powerful the searchlights hanging over our heads can only illuminate a range of about three meters ahead, dark and silent.
For safety reasons, Jiang Dayi had to adjust the spacing continuously to keep the front and rear teams within visual range.
I have been away from the submarine for a long time and although I am doing quite well, I still feel a little stressed. After all, diving is not just about strength, not to mention Fan Chong and Jiang Da Fish, even Lina and Parker are obviously more experienced than me. By contrast, I'm still the least aqueous of the six.
Jiang Da fishes noticed that I had no legs, one hand pressed against my shoulder, and it made me feel much lighter.
There are more and more monstrous stones on both sides of the water, with one or two stone men in between.
These stone men, like the one previously discovered, are slightly cylindrical, with rough lines, large and small, and short and tall. The only thing that's the same is that they're all staring at us with a single glance.
Somehow, I always thought these stones were alive, and there was an angry warning in their eyes, as if they were saying, "This is not where you should be!"
