Chapter 42: Cliff

Some people gathered around the stone platform, wearing animal skin clothes. I finally saw their whole faces. They were indeed very special. They walked backwards, their arms were very long, and their faces and facial features could not be clearly seen.

So I can't see what they look like.

The tallest man stood on the edge of the stone platform, half-bent and looking into the stone cave. Beside him were two women kneeling, their bodies tied up with thick ropes. These two people were the only ones with

They had facial expressions, but only one mouth and two eyes were drawn. The strange thing is that their faces turned out to be happy smiles, without any fear at all.

This painting proved some of my conjectures, but there were also some things that I couldn't understand. What was inside the hole? The two women were obviously going to be pushed into the hole, but why were they still smiling happily?

"Look here, is there really that kind of thing?" Song Meiting's cry came from the side. She was facing a stone wall, and there was also a painting on it. The scene in the picture was very dark. Some people were holding torches and standing beside them.

There was a hole in front of him, and a huge head protruded from it.

The head was very big, with a diameter of one meter in proportion. It had a huge mouth as long and pointed as a crocodile, and its two eyes were as scary as lanterns. As soon as I saw this thing, I immediately compared it to those other heads.

The stone statues are connected together. It turns out that the stone statues are really carved based on some kind of creature, but what is this? Anyway, I have never seen it before. But I am used to it. Weird races and weird species. Anyway, after coming here

, my inherent concept of the human body has been completely distorted.

The characters and animals are very vivid, but I can't tell what the background is. It's so dark, maybe it's in a cave. I can't help but wonder, could it be in this ancient cave? The ancient Shu king

He must have brought someone in. Is what he saw the same as what we saw?

Huh? Thinking of the ancient King of Shu, I suddenly realized that since I came down from the stone gate on the rock wall, I had completely lost all traces of his walking. I didn’t find any sign of his existence or activity along the way, until

There is none here. What's going on? Has he never come down? It shouldn't be possible. The existence of that stone gate means that he has discovered this place. No matter who it is, he will definitely come down to check it out.

"Is there really such a thing? What do you think it should be?" Some people still couldn't help but ask. The creature was too strange. It seemed very ugly and ferocious, but those around it didn't feel scared at all. Maybe

This monster is the object of their worship, but it shouldn't be so easy.

"I think it should be something like a snake or a big crocodile, maybe a mutant. Maybe it looks very ferocious on the surface, but in fact it has a very gentle personality. As you all know, such examples are not uncommon in nature."

"It's possible. This monster doesn't seem to have any intention of attacking those people. Maybe it is a very gentle creature."

"What about the background? Where should it be?"

"Those people holding torches should be in a place where the sun does not shine, such as a cave. If the creature is really a snake or crocodile, the place where it lives should be dark and humid, and it is most likely a place close to a water source.

A cave." I analyzed the picture and gradually sketched an image in my mind, but I couldn't find such a place in my memory. It should be a place I had never been to.

"Let's go inside and have a look. Maybe we can find something."

We walked along the cave. This cave is very deep and far from the end. This is not surprising. I think this is where the entire race lived in the past, so it naturally needs a huge and spacious area.

As we walked further in, the terrain became higher and higher, and I gradually felt that something was wrong, because the higher we went up, the drier it must be. To find the dark and humid place, we had to go down. But we were familiar with the geography here.

I didn’t understand the environment very well, so I kept moving forward.

I didn't expect that the cave was so tall. We walked for several hours. When it was almost dusk, a light finally appeared in front of us. But after seeing this light, I felt that our plan might be in vain.

Sure enough, the cave has reached the end. It is halfway up a mountain. In front of us is a vast mountainous area. We can see the green peaks and the river at the foot of the peaks. The scenery is extremely beautiful. But we can't get out.

, The mountainside where we are is very, very steep up and down. There are some stone cracks and protruding stones, but they are only limited to the area around the cave exit. Further down, it even slopes inward. The terrain is very uncomfortable and high.

It is impossible to go down hundreds of meters.

The road was completely cut off at this point. We looked at each other helplessly and realized that this journey was in vain. Looking at the sky, the sun had already set. Everyone was very tired. After some discussion, we decided to rest for a while.

Wait until you have fully recovered your energy.

As soon as I sat on the ground, my stomach growled. I hadn't eaten much all day. Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and they all felt a little troubled. It turned out that Yangyun and the others didn't have much food left, and I

Although there are still some in my bag, these are the last items at the bottom of the box. If you ask me to take them out and share them with everyone, I won't do it.

It’s none of my business to have nothing to eat. I thought selfishly in my heart. When I lowered my head, I saw a lot of bird droppings on the ground, and there were also many birds flying and circling in the sky outside the cave. This is a very strange thing.

Large mountain birds, gray in appearance, estimated to weigh several pounds each, were hovering outside the cave but did not dare to come close, as if they were watching us.

Immediately, something moved in his heart, and he quickly stood up. "I have thought of a way." After saying that, he waved his hands to Han Qiwei and Yang Yun, and said with a smile: "Two, we should prepare our dinner."

Both of them looked puzzled, but they followed us anyway, and we walked to the entrance of the cave. We looked at the environment on both sides, and then I climbed up on the rocks towards a cliff.

"Hey, Wang Fo, what are you doing? You can't get down here." Han Qiwei called from behind, with a troubled look on his face, obviously not wanting to climb such a dangerous cliff.

"Who said we have to go down? We are looking for food here."

"Food? Where can we get food from all the rocks here? You won't be allowed to eat rocks, right?"

"Hey, how would you know if you don't look for it? Don't worry, come here, we won't leave empty-handed."

The two of them were dubious, but they still crawled over. I found a stone crevice not far away, looked in, and couldn't help but grin. "Hey, this time we are going to have a good meal." I said.

He reached into the crack in the stone and quickly pulled out several round objects.

"Bird eggs?" Yang Yun and Han Qiwei behind them both looked surprised and couldn't help but swallow their saliva. I can understand their psychology. Since coming here, we have only eaten one piece of dry food every day, and we still eat it every day.

I'm not full, how can I not be excited when I suddenly see bird eggs? Just like when Guo Yingying and I ate snake meat in the morning, we almost bit our tongues off.
