Chapter 126
Li Cheng and Tian Guo looked at each other. This would only happen if the hound smelled the breath of a beast stronger than itself, such as a tiger or a blind bear.
But these missing hunters are all veterans who rely on mountains and eat mountains. If there were real beasts, they would have discovered them a long time ago, and it is impossible for them to enter the mountains again and again.
And the old man also said that they dare not go hunting deeply now, and it is even less likely that they will encounter ferocious beasts. What exactly would the hounds be afraid of, and why did they disappear.
These unexplainable things, coupled with the fact that these backers believed in some mountain gods, naturally attributed these things to strange powers and chaotic gods.
"Old man, you should believe in science more." Although Tian Guo couldn't explain this phenomenon, she believed that it would never be some god or monster.
Li Cheng also smiled, and said to Xiao Ye Zi: "Little Ye Zi, do you know where your father usually goes?"
Xiao Yezi wiped away her tears and snot, and nodded vigorously: "I know, Dad often takes me here to pick mushrooms!"
Li Cheng thought to himself, Xiao Yezi is connected with her father by blood, maybe the energy fluctuations will resonate, and if she is brought along, it may get twice the result with half the effort.
"Little Ye Zi, let you lead the way, let's go find your father together!"
"Ok!"
Xiao Ye Zi nodded happily, and rushed into the woods with ease, Li Cheng and An Ran rushed to catch up, and shouted anxiously: "Be careful of the thorns!"
The thorns had long since scratched scars on her thin and frail body, and even the skirt had been cut a few times.
Seeing this, the old man knew that he couldn't persuade these people, so he sighed anxiously, picked up his shotgun, and followed them bravely.
Tian Guo turned around and laughed and said, "Old man! Are you not afraid of the mountain god?"
"Hehe, call me Qi Lao Er." Qi Lao Er introduced himself with a somewhat embarrassed smile.
The three of them kept going deeper and deeper with the little leaves, and the more they went in, the taller the dense forest and the lush treetops almost shut out the sunlight.
Since there is no sunshine all year round, the moss plants here are very strong, and there is still some light mist in the air that lingers for a long time.
The sight inside is also much dimmer compared to the outside, but Li Cheng has nighttime ripple radar, so it doesn't pose too much trouble for him.
What surprised him was that after passing that border, crisis warnings suddenly sounded from time to time, but the sound was also very small and could not be heard.
Li Cheng constantly adjusts his position, looking for a dangerous direction, which may be related to the disappearance of the villagers!
Sure enough, in the direction of 2 o'clock, the response to the crisis warning is obviously more obvious than in other places.
So Li Cheng grabbed Xiao Yezi and let her walk behind him, and then said to Tian Guo and Qi Laoer: "There is a situation in front of the right!"
Sure enough, although the road ahead on the right was also full of weeds and vines, some of them were obviously newly grown. That is to say, this road had been walked by people before, but no one had passed by it for a long time.
They followed this clue and continued to move forward until a huge deep pit blocked their way, and there were no new clues around, so several people began to study the deep pit.
It seemed that the deep pit was about ten meters wide. Originally, the light in the jungle was not strong. This deep pit was a bit deep, and they couldn't see what was going on underneath.
It was dark, as if a monster was opening its bloody mouth, trying to swallow them in.
But this is not difficult for Li Cheng. He used the night ripple radar, but there was no light at all in the bottom section. If there was no light refraction, he would not be able to get effective feedback at all.
However, he still used the sea ripple radar to visualize the terrain below, which was at least a dozen meters deep, but the shape fed back from the bottom made Li Cheng's heart tighten.
"Let's go down! There's something going on underneath!"
Seeing Li Cheng's expression, Tian Guo also had an ominous premonition. She was about to turn on the bright flashlight she was carrying, but was stopped by Li Cheng.
Li Cheng glanced at Xiao Yezi behind him, and shook his head at Tian Guo, Tian Guo couldn't help but shudder.
"Little Yezi, wait up there with Grandpa Qi, brother and sister are going down to have a look!" Tian Guo comforted Xiao Yezi and said, she had already vaguely guessed something, and gently stroked Xiao Yezi's cheek.
After all, Li Cheng had already fixed it to a big tree with a tiger claw climbing hook, and the two of them began to sink along the rope. Because of the light, they didn't dare to step on the spot and swing down rashly.
After descending to seven or eight meters, the two of them could clearly smell a faint odor, which became stronger as they went down.
Li Cheng was the first to reach the bottom. Only then did he turn on the strong flashlight, but adjusted the light to normal brightness so that the situation below could not be clearly seen from above.
But for the scene in front of him, even though Li Cheng was mentally prepared, he couldn't help his scalp tingling, his stomach started to convulse, and he couldn't help retching.
Tian Guo covered his nose and was about to look back, but Li Cheng covered his eyes and resisted the urge to vomit.
"You have to be mentally prepared!"
Tian Guo patted his hand off, and said coquettishly, "I didn't see anything on the battlefield... Ugh..."
Before she finished speaking, she looked at the place illuminated by Li Cheng's lights, and vomited out all the food she ate in the morning.
In the middle of the pit, there are piles of corpses!
Each showed different degrees of decay, most of them had become white bones, and some were still oozing with a disgusting green thick liquid.
There are also some that have not been completely eroded by bacteria, and the bones are almost covered with mold, which makes the scalp numb.
In particular, the top few corpses were still bloody, and two of them could still recognize their appearance before birth.
The musty smell and rotten stench they smelled all came from here, and Tian Guo couldn't help retching for a while.
Maybe the corpses were thrown from above, so some of the bones were separated. Li Cheng did a little inventory, and there were about ten corpses.
Tian Guo wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and said in a low voice filled with righteous indignation: "Only poachers can do such cruel things!"
As he said this, Tian Guo's eyes turned slightly red. The interests involved were huge, and the poachers would not hesitate to kill innocent people who found them.
If conditions permit, they will also use corpses as bait to lure valuable beasts over and then shoot them.
Li Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly, the anger in his heart was beyond words, and he shouted upwards: "Master Qi! Come down!"
They also couldn't determine whether the corpse below was related to the villagers, so they had to ask Qi Laoer to come down and identify it.
Qi Laoer was originally a hunter. He climbed down the rope steadily and quickly, mainly because he was eager to find people.
But when he came down, he vomited a while when he saw these corpses. With grief and indignation, he stepped forward to identify the two corpses that were relatively clear.
"Ah! Beast!" Qi Er Er suddenly sat down on the ground like a child and began to cry loudly.
His thoughts were the same as Tian Guo's. Only poachers could do such inhumane things.
Those two corpses were the villagers who had disappeared in their village in the past two months!
