Chapter 217 The troops are divided into two groups
"Have you ever seen a spider web this big?
Besides, since the spider web is so big, the spider must be quite big, and it might be poisonous. If something goes wrong, there must be a monster, so you'd better not touch it."
Zhang Long said as he pulled out the Tang Dao from his waist, pushed aside the spider webs blocking the road, and the group continued to walk forward for some distance.
As they walked further into the middle of the forest, they felt that the surrounding spider webs were getting bigger and bigger. Some were even as big as a tree. But the strange thing was that the group of people had walked for about twenty minutes from the time they entered the forest.
, but all the time I only saw spider webs, not spiders.
In confusion, I found red cloth on one of the branches.
Li Yi let out a long sigh.
"I don't know what those women are thinking. They dare to come to this kind of ghost place. I have no choice. Brothers, please leave quickly. If you find them early, go back as soon as possible. You can't stay in this ghost place for too long."
After saying that, he walked away. Unexpectedly, his arm was grabbed by someone the next second.
Zhang Long looked solemnly at the red cloth hanging on the branch.
"I wonder if you have found a problem."
"The strips look like they have been hanging on the tree for a long time."
Li Yi looked at it and didn't think there was anything wrong.
"Oh, don't think about it, where are there so many strange things?
Let’s hurry up this road and go home as soon as we find the person, it’s too cold.”
Zhang Long shook his head.
"It's still not right. Look at where the red cloth strips are hung. Even if we go to hang them, we have to put our feet up to reach them. Some places even hang them almost to the crown of the tree. This is not normal."
After saying that, he put the knife into its sheath, walked a few steps forward, and picked off a section of branch tied with a cloth strip.
After taking a closer look, my heart sank.
It was exactly as I thought. Moss had grown on the knotted areas of these cloth strips, and there were traces of mold in some places. This was not something that could be done in winter.
He pointed out his findings to everyone.
"Perhaps these cloth strips were hung there from the beginning, just because when we entered the forest a few times before, there were leaves on the trees, and the leaves covered the cloth strips, so we couldn't see them."
As I said this, I couldn't help but laugh at myself.
"Actually, this is also our fault. When we first entered the forest and saw strips of cloth hanging on the branches, we subjectively thought it was left by Zhang Xiaotong and the others."
"Then if these strips of cloth were not left by Zhang Xiaotong and the others, who could have made them?"
Li Yi's words caused the five people to fall into deep thought.
"Ah... help!"
A big pit suddenly appeared under Wang Shengli's feet, and he slipped directly into it.
Zhang Long was mentally stunned. Without thinking, he pulled out his knife and jumped down.
Li Yi followed closely, and the remaining two people consciously waited at the entrance of the cave.
While descending, Zhang Long noticed that the cave wall was very smooth and there was a lot of spider silk, so this was probably a spider cave. Judging from the size of the hole, the spider was probably not even that big.
Small……
With a muffled sound, Zhang Long fell to the ground. Although there was a cave wall as a buffer, the distance between the top and bottom of the cave was too long. It still hurt to fall to the ground unexpectedly!
Just as he was about to get up, he saw a black and rumbling object falling from directly above him. Zhang Long was so hit that he almost vomited out his overnight meal.
"Ahem, cough, cough... Pig, you are so heavy, you will die!"
"Hey, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Li Yi pulled Zhang Long to stand up. The two turned on the flashlights and looked around. They found that this place was a space of about ten square meters. There were spider webs everywhere. In addition, there were two unknown paths leading to where.
aisle.
"That's weird. That kid also fell from here. Why didn't he see anyone else?"
At this time, Liu Yi's voice came from above.
"how's it going?
Are you okay?"
Li Yi put his hands in a tube shape above his mouth: "We are fine, but Wang Shengli has gone somewhere. You guys wait above."
After saying that, he followed Zhang Long to the intersection of two roads.
"what to do?
Are the troops divided into two groups?"
"OK."
Zhang Long randomly chose a path and walked in.
The pale light of the flashlight shone on the surrounding white spider webs. It was found that these spider webs formed an arch above the head. The left and right sides were very smooth and flat, and it looked like an artificial passage.
Looking at everything in front of him, Zhang Long felt a little uneasy, because such an environment was not like what ordinary spiders could do.
Of course, ordinary spiders can't dig such a big hole.
Walking a little further ahead, Zhang Long found an unusual bump on the wall. He shined a flashlight into it and found that there was also a bump at the same height not far ahead.
It's just that it's covered with spider silk, so I don't know what's inside.
Zhang Long, after thinking for a moment, pressed the Tang Dao against the bulge and exerted force!
There's no way to pierce it?
Wait a moment!
It feels like...
Zhang Long picked apart the surrounding spider silk with three moves, and a bronze lamp appeared in front of him.
His heart couldn't help but speed up at this moment, and he felt his scalp was numb.
This is definitely not what should be in a spider cave!
Considering the surrounding situation, a bold idea emerged spontaneously.
This place is most likely a tomb. Even if it is not a tomb, it is definitely a building that can be compared with the altar that was found underground.
From this point of view, it is very likely that the aborigines on this island existed before the Qin State, but for some unknown reason, the people on the island disappeared later.
Continue to follow this road, and you may be able to find some clues as you go ahead.
Zhang Long thought this way and continued walking forward while calling Wang Shengli's name.
While walking, a man wrapped tightly in spider silk and hanging upside down from the ceiling suddenly appeared in front of him.
From the outside, the man looked extremely thin. At first glance, he was Wang Shengli.
Zhang Long quickly speeded up the movement of his feet, cut off the spider silk with one knife, and then tore away the spider silk wrapped around his body.
"Wang Shengli, Wang Shengli, can you hear me?
Don't tell me that you burped in such a short time, how should I explain to the fat man when I get back?"
As he spoke, he tore open the spider silk covering the man's head with a squeaking sound.
What came into view was a yellowed skull head, which frightened Zhang Long's heart. After he realized what he was doing, he let out a long sigh of relief.
This man looked like he had been dead for an unknown number of years, with only a handful of bones left. He was definitely not Wang Shengli.
