President Liu asked back: "Brother Xia, do you think Liu's age determination is wrong?"

Xia Xi replied: "No."

President Liu asked again: "Then what did you mean by what you just said?"

Xia Xi said: "I agree with your chronological conclusion, but I think you said that we want to enter the core of the most ancient and splendid civilization. This is a bit premature. When we passed the ruins of the Twelve Ancestral Witches just now, the people inside Almost everything is black, and it has obviously been burned by a large-scale fire, including the bone shell in your hand, which is also a remnant after burning."

"Old Liu, I believe you know better than me. Ancient ruins are generally divided into three categories: tomb pits, sacrificial pits, and incineration pits. Generally, many civilizational remains can be found in tomb pits and sacrificial pits, but when you encounter an incineration pit, the contents inside Many of them are destructive. Since the remains of the shaman culture are incineration pits, I feel that what we enter next is probably not an ancient tomb, but also a larger incineration site."

President Liu: "..."

It's not that President Liu is not as professional as Xia Xi.

It's just that this guy was dazzled by the era of witchcraft culture.

Lu Cenyin nodded: "My premonition is not good either. Except for the pillars that still remain in the entire witch culture relics, almost everything else has been lost, and the graffiti under the broken wall seems to have been deliberately wiped away. Using fire again, the ancients must have concealed some secret."

President Liu asked: "What if... this shaman culture relic building has little to do with the ancient tomb behind it?"

He still didn't give up.

I said: "This possibility is almost impossible. First, the words of senior Qianying made it clear that the ancient tomb of Sun and Moon Henghui is in the Witch's Nest, and the two are dependent on each other. Second, since we went up Landuo Snow Mountain has never seen large-scale man-made structures, but when we are about to reach the ancient tomb, the remains of witchcraft culture appear. If you insist that it has nothing to do with the ancient tomb behind, don’t you think it is far-fetched?"

President Liu was splashed with cold water several times by us, and he became obviously irritable. He kept shaking the fan in his hand and pacing back and forth. Finally, he closed the fan and asked: "Everyone, have you rested enough? Regardless of the ancient tombs You have to see it with your own eyes to know what it is. I don’t think we should discuss it now and focus on moving forward!”

I nodded: "Let's go!"

Everyone continued to walk forward.

The surroundings were overgrown with weeds, and there were no longer tall trees, but there were many vines that often entangled our legs, making it difficult to walk.

We used tools to open a path ahead as we walked.

After walking through the vine field.

Suddenly it became bare, not even a blade of grass could be seen.

There was reddish-brown soil beneath his feet, which looked like blood from a distance.

President Liu picked up the soil and rubbed it twice, then frowned and said, "Red soil is generally distributed in Jiangxi, Hunan and Fujian. How can there be so much red soil in this high mountain climate?"

Xia Xi said: "Old Liu, don't pay attention to the red soil for now. Su Zi has seen bloody rocks in Lage Cave before. There are also changing climates in the cave. Any natural phenomena here are unreasonable. strangeness."

"You should think about it, why are there so many shrubs and vines in front of you, but here they are bare?"

President Liu asked back: "Brother Xia, what do you think?"

Xia Xi replied: "My idea is that we are about to arrive at the ancient tomb. Has there been any special treatment in this area to deliberately prevent vegetation from growing?"

President Liu's eyes widened: "Yes! Why didn't I think of that?"

Xia Xi said: "I guess there are two reasons. Either the sky specifically rains something similar to sulfuric acid rain on this area, or the ground has done some special treatment. Old Liu, do you want to dig it up and take a look?"

Chairman Liu said: "That's a must! Now that we're here, we can't let go of any doubt."

I didn't object either.

Anyway, we are already here.

Nothing is rushed anymore.

Everyone began to use the tools left behind by the tea horse merchants, found a piece of land that seemed easier to dig, and started to work. Xia Xi was watching with a piece of grass in his mouth, but he probably saw that we were unprofessional in digging, so he vomited the grass and snatched the shovel from my hand: "If you dig like this, you won't be able to dig very deep even if you are exhausted." Hole, go away!”

He spat in his hands, rubbed them evenly, held the shovel in his hands, and shoveled down in a weird, slightly rotating posture.

I believed a word.

Don't compete with other people's majors with your own interests and hobbies.

Although it was not a professional tool for digging into the grave, in Xia Xi's hands, it flew up and down, and soon a hole of 50 to 60 centimeters square was drilled. With our help, it was 1.56 meters deep in a short time.

The color of the rock and soil below is getting darker and darker.

It even smells bad.

When President Liu saw it, he frowned and said, "This soil seems to have been treated with a corrosive agent. No wonder the grass and trees don't grow."

I asked: "What material is it made of?"

President Liu shook his head: "I don't know... It was still the tribal period at that time. The ancients did not master any tempering technology. They should have used some kind of natural raw materials. As for what they were, they probably had to take the soil back and analyze the ingredients, and then Make inferences.”

He wanted to pocket the dirt.

I immediately stopped: "The vegetation has not grown in so many years, and the devil knows what is inside. I won't stop you if you want to be reincarnated, but don't bring this thing up to trick us!"

President Liu had no choice but to suppress his curiosity and did not start any more groundbreaking.

"Bang!"

There was a noise.

Xia Xi said: "I found something!"

There was indeed something underneath the shovel, but it was wrapped in black mud.

But we were worried that the soil was poisonous, and we didn't dare to dig it, so we had to urge Xia Xi to use a shovel to get it up as much as possible.

Xia Xi said: "Get out of the way! Let me take the first bite! Get the fish!"

He turned the shovel in his hand and immediately hooked a round thing like fishing.

"Liankou!"

Xia Xi turned the shovel a few more times, and three round things came up.

"Gone!"

He dropped the shovel.

Lu Senyin and Xiaozhu had already returned to the vine field ahead of time, got a few big handfuls of grass, and tied them into a few small brooms.

We quickly cleaned up the dirt above.

Found out after cleaning up.

It turned out to be four black heads.

Xiaozhu suddenly said: "Brother, its eyes are moving!" (End of Chapter)
