"Chase!" Su Yin stretched out his hand and pointed forward.
Qingyan and Gu Xueqiao followed closely behind Su Yin. The three of them were very good at martial arts and had great movement skills. Just like that, they started running fast through the thorny jungle.
Not long after, Su Yin suddenly stopped. The three of them stopped where they were and saw the body of an elk lying in front of them not far away.
“Go check it out!”
The three people walked forward quickly and frowned at the same time. I don't know when the elk's body was lying here. Strictly speaking, this was no longer a body, but half of it, with all kinds of mutilated and scattered pieces.
Sprinkle it on the land in the forest, turning the land into a rainbow.
"It stinks!" Su Yin covered her nose, "Gu Xueqiao, what did you find?"
Gu Xueqiao squatted down. Even a soldier like him who had fought countless times in the sea of blood in the corpse mountain couldn't help but feel his stomach churning. This corpse smelled too bad. If it weren't for the degree of coagulation of the blood,
Look, it looks almost like a rotting corpse that has been dead for several days.
Gu Xueqiao stood up and said, "My lord, this elk died no more than two hours ago."
Su Yin exclaimed, "This elk is filled with rotten stench. It has obviously been dead for a long time. The weather is not hot now. How could it be that it just died?"
Gu Xueqiao replied, "Your Majesty, I was almost fooled by the rotten smell just now, but you see. Whether it is a human or an animal, the degree of blood coagulation after death is certain over time. The elk's blood has not yet completely coagulated.
, and there is still residual temperature in the abdominal cavity of the corpse. In this kind of weather, the temperature is naturally not external, but the elk's own. But why it emits a putrid smell, I can't figure out."
Su Yin nodded, "What are these monsters thinking? They just attacked my vanguard team, and now they kill an elk in the woods. Doesn't this mean they are leaving a clue for us to track? I can't figure it out even more.
Yes, what are these beasts for? If they are looking for prey to feed themselves, twenty soldiers are obviously enough to feed them, and there is still more than half of the elk carcass left. They are obviously not looking for food.
A murderer."
Gu Xueqiao said, "Your Majesty is right. When we were outside the Great Wall, our field army often dealt with wolves. When the wolves caught prey and ate it, they had a strict order. The alpha wolf would monitor different wolves.
, each wolf eats different parts of the prey according to its own status. The liver and heart of the animal are considered to be the most beautiful parts, and they will be eaten no matter what. But I just opened the abdominal cavity of this elk
, only to find that the heart had been bitten into pieces, but basically not eaten, and the liver was even intact. You know, ferocious beasts in the wild have similar methods of hunting prey, so they must not be looking for food."
Su Yin walked into the elk, endured the nausea and knelt down. Sure enough, he saw that outside the abdomen of the elk, the bloody mass that Gu Xueqiao had just pulled out was indeed the elk's heart, but almost all of it was thrown away in the original place.
The ground was not eaten.
"Gu Xueqiao, in your opinion, where is the fatal injury of this lost animal?" Qingyan asked suddenly as if she had thought of something.
Gu Xueqiao walked to the elk and looked at it again, "Miss Qingyan, the elk's body has been broken into pieces, and there must be more than one fatal injury. But judging from the degree of muscle decay in the wound section, these monsters attack first.
