Wu Xie took a breath or two with a headache, and suddenly felt that the journey to meet his little brother soon might not be that simple...
Wu Xie had always known that Hu Ming was a bold man, but he never expected that Hu Ming would really dare to do such a heartbreaking thing.
This can no longer be described as a bear's heart or a leopard's courage...
"What's wrong with this? My brother and I have reached an agreement. We both want to kill the bastard who is the leader of the team..."
Hu Ming said that Wu Xie is still too young!
...
...
The passage leading to the underground palace was not long. In just a few minutes, the group had passed through the corridor and arrived at the first open space.
Everything around it was built and arranged according to the ritual specifications recorded in the ancient burial scriptures.
The four walls of the square space are all carved with some ancient and remote ghosts and gods.
only...…
What is placed in the hall is not a coffin, funerary object or narrative monument.
Buried here... is a horrific puzzle composed of countless dead bones!
The skull and ribs form the palm, and the remaining scattered bones form the seven fingers!
"Qizhi, Li Cu, do you feel very familiar and friendly? As friendly as meeting your family members?"
Hu Ming scolded Li Cu next to him and joked in a low voice.
"The picture on my back, is this a coincidence?"
Li Cu didn't want to pay attention to Hu Ming, and there was still fear in his eyes, so he asked Wu Xie softly.
"It's not a coincidence. The picture on your back is exactly the same as the arrangement of these bones..."
"Why?"
"I also want to know why, and you'll find out if you go on!"
Wu Xie fiddled with the dead bones and put a small object buried in them into his arms without leaving any trace. He rubbed it carefully in secret and understood in his heart.
While Su Nan and his party were looking around, Wu Xie pointed at Su Nan.
Wu Xie, who had learned Su Nan's true identity from Hu Ming, knew very well what he meant. Was the death of Huang Yan and his party, and the deaths of those in Lan Ting, caused by the Wang family?
Hu Ming nodded.
The Wang family has been searching for Gu Tongjing for more than a day or two... Over the years, countless people who have searched for Gu Tongjing intentionally or unintentionally have all been buried in the sea of sand.
"Judging from the degree of decay of the skeletons, they were left about three years ago, and the number should be around ten people..."
Hu Ming picked up a piece of bone, crushed it with slight force, drew conclusions based on the desert environment, and talked eloquently.
"Judging from the clothing, equipment and other remains scattered around, these bones should belong to a team."
At the same time, Su Nan also noticed some information from subtle details.
"That's right, they are the owners of some of those cameras. As for the people in the other team, we don't know yet."
Wu Xie clapped his hands and said pointedly.
"No, there is another person who left here!"
The rebellious young man Li Cu stared at a familiar piece of clothing remains and said in a deep voice.
That piece of clothing is so familiar to him!
Those were the pieces of clothing of Huang Yan who attacked him that night!!!
Unwilling to remain a hostage, Li Cu launched his own weak resistance for the first time, trying to cause Hu Ming and Wu Xie some trouble.
only....
"Three years ago... Tsk, Guan Gen, do you remember anything? Let me remind you, Lan Ting! This woman... is a bit interesting!"
Everyone ignored Li Cu, and Hu Ming changed the topic openly.
"Ah...I think about it. I never expected that three years ago, our friend turned out to be a ghost...This is really unexpected information."
"Perhaps what happened here was too sudden. Lan Ting didn't even realize that he was dead, and he lived like a normal person for three years!"
Wu Xie lit a cigarette and sighed with a complicated expression.
"To tell you the truth, Sekine, I suddenly became more and more interested in this woman... This is the first time I have encountered such a strange existence."
Hu Ming grinned and said meaningfully.
"Wait, Lan Ting? I know this woman! She is a well-known young writer in Baodao. She was found to have committed suicide at home half a month ago... How could she have died here three years ago??"
"Did you two make a mistake? For example, someone with the same name?"
Su Nan felt a chill rising in her heart and asked in shock.
At this moment, everyone felt that a gloomy wind was blowing out of thin air in the underground palace, and they were both physically and mentally chilled!
"That's right... look here!"
"There are differences between male and female skeletons. Women's skeleton is relatively slender, the bone surface is relatively delicate, and the bone quality is lighter."
"Especially the pubic bone, which is wide, short, low, elastic, and has a large angle, mostly 120 degrees. This is obviously a female-specific pubic bone structure!"
"No... there are two complete skeletons of women. By the way, we have investigated that there were only two women in Lan Ting's team three years ago."
"They are Lan Ting and her best friend Tao Tao. The time, place, and personnel are all right... This is not a coincidence!"
Hu Ming pulled out some remains from his seven fingers and spliced them into two complete skeletons, with the corners of his mouth rising more and more.
"But...how is this possible? Didn't the media report that Lan Ting committed suicide at home some time ago? The body has been found!"
Su Nan was still in disbelief and tried to refute Hu Ming's conclusion with facts.
"Coincidentally, some time ago, Lan Ting once again joined an expedition group to Gutongjing... It seems that after coming here, she recalled her past memories and remembered the reality that she was dead."
"There are always some unbelievable strange powers in this world... Lan Ting committed suicide at home? The body was found?... There is no way."
At this moment, Wu Xie unearthed the past of the Qinling Sacred Tree from the depths of his memory, and remembered that he and his mother had died long ago, but now he was still living in the United States like ordinary people.
Perhaps it was Lan Ting's obsession that gave her such an ability that transcends understanding... Excluding all impossible results, no matter how unbelievable the remaining conclusion is, it is the Ring of Truth.
Lan Ting died three years ago!
The Lan Ting that Hu Ming and Wu Xie knew was a special existence similar to an obsession, different from ordinary ghosts!
