I agree with this, so I usually don’t understand those people who rely on controlling their food intake to lose weight. God gave us a mouth, isn’t it just for talking and eating? Food is our first priority, why should we treat ourselves badly?
.
I relied on several kilograms of snake meat, but in the end it was all divided between us. The two women were even more "ferocious" than me. Their mouths were full of oil and their faces were full of oil. It could be described as gobbling them up, and they didn't care about the image of a lady at all.
After I finished eating, I took out the snake skin. The two women were stunned when they saw it, with complicated expressions. Seeing the way they hesitated to speak, I wanted to laugh in my heart and felt very refreshed. I finally breathed out.
, in fact, the snakeskin rope has almost been braided, I could have hidden it from them, but I did this on purpose, just to "retaliate" for their previous actions.
After solving the problem of food and clothing, we began to look at the surrounding environment. We were on the edge of the canyon, and in front of us was a tall forest. The trees here were different from any we had seen before. They all grew twisted, like a tree.
They are like huge screws. I feel that they are more like thick vines. Their branches and leaves are also very dense, but the branches are all gathered in the middle, hugging each other, but some parts will stick out and merge with other surrounding trees.
The branches are intertwined together, and the forest looks like a huge whole, which is very magical.
The canyon looks very long, and I don't know where the exits at both ends are, but I think there shouldn't be an exit there. If it can be easily entered or exited, it can't be considered a secret.
The sky is already very bright. At least we can see each other's hair flowing gently. The woods are still very quiet. But since there is such a big python here, there should be other animals. Otherwise, how can the python grow so big?
What? I guess it's because of the light. It's very dark here compared to the outside. Maybe those animals are used to getting up late, or there may be some other reasons, but we don't know yet.
We walked into the woods. The fallen leaves here were very thick, more than a foot long. We wanted to avoid encountering any ambush. We walked very carefully. After all, the canyon was not very wide. Even if we went slower, it wouldn't take long to reach it.
opposite.
After walking less than 200 meters, we actually encountered animals, and more than once, snakes and lizards were the main theme, and there were some other things, but most of them were amphibians, and mammals were relatively rare.
Walking further inside, we finally encountered something different, a stone statue wrapped in vines. It looked very old. From a visual perspective, it must have been much older than the era of the ancient King of Shu. I guess it should be
Something from three thousand years ago.
More than three thousand years? It’s very close to the era of the first generation of dragon hunters, right? After working in this business for so many years, I understand one thing. The older the culture, the more mysterious it is and the more difficult it is to figure out.
I walked over and peeled off the vines on it. The stone statue was badly weathered, but I could still make out the whole thing. The stone statue was very simple, more than two meters high, and was carved from a huge stone. It was obviously a human shape, but in fact it was just an outline.
, its face is just carved with some lines to outline the person's facial features, without any expression.
But that is, this face looks extremely weird. The proportions of the facial features are very abnormal, the mouth is pointed and long, the eyes are extremely big, the nose is high and protruding, and it has six legs but no arms. The overall appearance is very weird.
"Why does this thing look like a crocodile?" Song Meiting beside her couldn't help but say, muttering in her mouth, as if she was looking for something in common between the stone statue and the crocodile.
"No, crocodiles don't have six legs." Guo Yingying immediately objected, but she said that she couldn't tell what it looked like. In fact, I couldn't think of what it looked like. In my memory, it didn't seem to exist.
What kind of creature has six legs? The closest thing is a spider, but a spider has eight legs, and the overall gap between it and a spider is too big.
I really couldn't think of anything, so I had to explain myself: "This should be a statue of a god, a god worshiped by people at that time. Maybe these were imagined by people based on some creatures, like dragons and various mythical beasts. We
Haven’t you never seen it before?”
This explanation is reasonable, and they all agree with me, but why is the stone statue in this place? There seems to be nothing special within a few dozen meters around here, but a solitary stone statue looks very strange when placed here.
It was abrupt.
But this has nothing to do with us, let’s just treat it as a decoration. We continued to walk forward, and the terrain became slightly higher, but it was not obvious, and you wouldn’t feel it at all if you didn’t observe carefully.
Soon we encountered another stone statue, which was exactly the same as the one we saw before, except that this one was taller, nearly three meters in height, and its expression was slightly more detailed and vivid. It was obvious that this stone statue had passed by
meticulously made.
After observing for a few minutes and finding nothing, we continued walking forward, but we only walked about ten meters. Song Meiting behind us screamed in surprise. When I turned around, she had already fallen to the ground. But it was just an accidental fall.
Instead, she quickly sat up, but she didn't stand up immediately. Instead, she picked up the dead leaves on the ground with a curious look on her face.
I tilted it slightly, and a corner of the stone was exposed. It was not an ordinary stone, because the exposed corner was very regular and had obviously been carefully repaired. My curiosity also came up, and I helped clean up the dead leaves around it.
The stones in one corner are getting bigger and bigger, and we have cleared several meters of the area but still not fully exposed the entire area.
"No need to do it. I think this should be a big stone platform." I said and looked around. This should be the center of the entire forest, and it is also the most open place. There is a stone platform. What is it for?
use?
It was most likely a venue for sacrifices, or it might be a place for other activities. I walked to the center of this open space and picked up the dead leaves on the ground. I didn't see any stones, but there were some.
There are fragments of pottery, and the color of the soil underneath is somewhat different from that of the surrounding soil. It is darker, black, and has better viscosity than other places.
My desire for exploration was immediately aroused. It seemed that there must be some secret hidden under the dead leaves. We came here just to find the secret, so naturally we couldn't let it go.
I cleaned up the area several meters around. It was indeed a stone platform, but there was a circular hole with a diameter of two meters in the middle. It seemed that the stone platform was built around this hole.
I dug out curiously with a dagger. The soil in the cave was very soft, and the color of the soil became darker as it went down, accompanied by a strange smell.
