Ghostly Tomb

Chapter 1620 Hidden Secrets

"Traces of human life?

Can there be living people in this ghost place? ",
After Fat Wei heard this, he looked back at Chen Zhi inexplicably,
"Could it be that a miracle really happened, those foreign devils diving experts swam all the way here, and then made a fire here to cook, and turned into Robinson? Then they came to a desert island to survive or something?"

"Not the current person!" Ghost Sword shook his head, hesitated for a moment, then looked at Chen Zhi again,

"I'm not sure about the exact situation.

But I don't see the traces left behind, they don't seem to be left by recent people, and... ",
When Ghost Saber said this, he looked at Chen Zhi, then looked at Old Wu inexplicably, and finally said:
"Go and see for yourself, there's something wrong there..."

So in the following time, everyone began to walk along the edge of the island to another coast.

This is not an easy thing to say. Although the island is not big, it is very inconvenient to walk because it is all covered with ice.

The ice city on the ground was full of bumps, some were sharp like knives, and they walked hard for a long time before they finally reached the opposite side.

When they arrived, they discovered that this place turned out to be a completely transparent ice zone, and the ice was crystal clear and clean like a mirror.

Compared with the bumpy ground just now, this is the best location!

However, what I didn't expect was that there were traces of people living here.

The first thing I saw in front of me was a small semi-circular ice castle, which looked like a small grave from a distance.

Next to it is a bonfire made of wood. The wood is very thin, layered on top of each other, and there is a lot of charcoal on it. It seems that it has been burned here for a long time.

It is very cold here, and it is not a suitable place to start a fire at all. The ice below will quickly extinguish the fire, so it is designed in such a repeated and superimposed form, just like the simplest primitive stove.

It can be seen that the person living here is very smart, tenacious, and has a lot of experience in wild life.

On the outside of the bonfire, there are some food residues. On this frozen island, things can be kept for a long, long time.

The food on the ground has been frozen hard for a long time, but the color of the outside has not changed too much. After cutting it with a sharp dagger, you can see the burnt yellow cornmeal inside.

It's a dough, but it's not pure corn, specifically, it's a mixture of some kind of special grain and cornstarch.

Although he could see the ingredients of this kind of food, in Chen Zhi's memory, he had no concept of this kind of food at all.

"Avalokitesvara!", when Old Wutou saw the dough, he suddenly cried out in surprise.

He immediately picked up the few pieces of dough on the ground and broke them open one by one, as if opening up his past memory, very surprised.

"Here, why is there such a thing here?

This..., this is Guanyin's pastry!
Only people in our life have eaten it, and people now have never even seen it!
And..., and this..."

"What is Guanyin Bobo?" Fat Wei asked from behind,
"Old man, don't keep bluffing. Seeing two dough balls, but not seeing a bomb, why did you get so excited?"

"Guanyin Bobo, to put it bluntly, is wild vegetable corn bread, which was our staple food at that time, just like rice now~~",
Old man Wu sighed softly, and said softly:
"You children today can't imagine what kind of years it was when I was seventeen or eighteen!

The hardships you endured back then were beyond your dreams...

At that time, everyone was so poor that they would die. When a disaster year hits, people will die of starvation, and the most worthless people are people.

Our small fishing village has never had high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and there is not even a wealthy household in the village. We can't afford white noodles, and corn flour is very expensive here.

So we can only find a way by ourselves and eat the young leaves on the old elm tree.

The leaves are very thin, and when ground into noodles, they are very sweet, and when mixed with cornmeal, they can be made into glutinous rice cakes.

At that time, many people were saved, so we called it Guanyin Bobo.

This kind of thing, I had to eat every day at that time, has not appeared for decades, how could this happen? "

"Is this really weird?" Fat Wei looked at everyone with a smile,

"It seems that those foreign experts are also hard-working and simple. They even know about Chinese wild vegetable dumplings."

"It can't be someone else's..." Old Wu's hands were trembling, holding these wild vegetable pastries,
"This..., this pastry is made by me!

I know my own craft, and I will never be wrong. "

"That's normal!" Ghost Knife, who had been silent by the side, suddenly said,
"These things are from decades ago! And they all smell like you!",
When Ghost Knife spoke, his eyes were cold.

Chen Zhi immediately understood what he meant. The sense of smell of warriors is more sensitive than that of ordinary people. Although they have experienced decades, in such a cold place, the smell of the original owner will still remain on the objects.

And this faint smell can easily be caught by warriors like Ghost Saber.

As the old Wutou said, he had indeed been to this island and lived here alone for a period of time.

But his purpose is not so clear...

"What is this?",
Fat Wei lightly kicked the small ice castle next to it, and found that the surface was quite hard.

The ice castle is semicircular in shape, with a diameter of more than one meter. It looks like an igloo of an Eskimo from the outside.

Fat Wei poked his neck inside, looked down, and immediately shouted:
"Come and see!
The place inside is quite big!Oh my god!It's like a big house like him!

Come and have a look, there's something else in here! "

After Fat Wei finished speaking, he straightened his body downwards and jumped in as if slipping.

Chen Zhi also lowered his body, poked his head in to look, and saw that there was indeed a artificially dug ice hole below, with a space of about a few square meters!

There are actually some tattered grass roots and wool quilts inside, which is a simple living place.

After Pang Wei rummaged inside for a long time, he pushed up a burden.

It was a bundle of old coarse cloth, but it had been frozen hard, like a stone.

After softening the cloth bag with a warmer, they opened it carefully, and found two sets of frozen coarse cloth clothes inside, all of which were covered with patches, obviously for men!

And on top of the clothes were several long bandages.

It is said to be a bandage, but it is actually an old coarse cloth from the past, but it is stained with blood.

Judging by the amount of bleeding, this person is already dead...
