"His left ribs are gray-black, which is caused by a paralysis poison."
Su Yuan pointed to Ma Tong's withered bones and said to Lan Qingling.
Lan Qingling was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to take a closer look. Sure enough, she found that Ma Tong's withered left ribs were a strange gray-black color, as if they had been burned by smoke and fire.
"This paralysis poison should be caused by some kind of creature biting Ma Tong's left rib, and the poison was quickly injected into his body along with the teeth. This was also the main cause of Ma Tong's death."
Su Yuan said, and then added: "The creature that attacked Ma Tong was very powerful and cruel. It paralyzed him and dragged him into the cave and used it as food! Not only did he eat his flesh, but he also sucked his body.
Blood, even the brain and bone marrow are not spared."
"Ah? Is it that exaggerated?"
Lan Qingling's face froze.
"There is a hole in Ma Tong's skull, and the brain marrow in his skull has long been sucked clean."
As Su Yuan said this, he pointed at Ma Tong's skull.
Lan Qingling took a closer look and found that there was a thumb-sized hole in the middle of Ma Tong's skull, as if it had been cut by some extremely sharp object.
"Also, that thing sucked Ma Tong's spine clean!"
Su Yuan said this and pushed Ma Tong's withered bones.
Wow!
Ma Tong's withered bones immediately fell apart.
Lan Qingling and Yu Baiying immediately discovered that Ma Tong's spine was hollow and quite smooth inside, with nothing left.
Logically speaking, after a person dies, if the marrow in the bones is still there, it will carbonize or turn into earth-like gray matter over time. However, Ma Tong's spine is hollow, which means that after his death,
And the bone marrow was sucked out by that thing!
Seeing Ma Tong's tragic end, Lan Qingling's face changed and she hurriedly said: "Let's get out of this ghost place quickly! I don't want to encounter that kind of scary creature."
"All right!"
Su Yuan nodded, stuffed Ma Tong's relics into the leather bag, and carried it in his hand to leave the cave.
"etc…"
Yu Baiying suddenly said something.
"Sister Baiying, what's wrong?"
Lan Qingling hurriedly asked Yu Baiying.
"This cave seems to be very deep, and I don't know where it leads to!"
Yu Baiying said this, and then said: "Why don't we go in and take a look! Maybe we will find something."
Hearing what Yu Baiying said, Su Yuan and Lan Qingling looked into the depths of the melting point, only to see the dark inside, with vaguely uneven cave walls, and low visibility.
However, they could feel a cool air flowing in the cave, which meant that there was another exit in the cave, or it was connected to other places, because if the cave was closed, no matter how deep the cave was,
The air will not circulate, but will be very dull.
Lan Qingling asked Su Yuan, "Brother, do you think we should go in and take a look?"
"Well... let's go in and take a look! Maybe we'll find some clues."
Su Yuan thought for a while and then said this.
Hearing what Su Yuan said, Lan Qingling no longer objected, but grabbed Su Yuan's arm: "Brother, this cave is gloomy and the light is very poor. I can't see clearly, so I'd better hold you."
Better!”
"All right!"
Su Yuan also knew that Lan Qingling was scared, so he let her hold his arm.
The three of them walked along the cave wall into the cave...
The further you go inside, the darker it becomes, and water is dripping from the top of the cave from time to time.
The three of them carefully walked about fifty meters inside. The cave became increasingly humid and the light became darker and darker. Strangely, the inside was much more spacious than the outside.
At this moment, Su Yuan, who was walking in front, suddenly saw an object on the ground.
Su Yuan hurriedly stopped and took a closer look. It turned out to be a submachine gun with a bulging magazine.
So Su Yuan knelt down and picked up the submachine gun and magazine.
When Lan Qingling next to her saw this, she immediately came over and took a look: "Hey, there is a submachine gun! Who left it here?"
Su Yuan looked at it and found that there was a pinyin name "matong" on the handle of the submachine gun.
Lan Qingling also saw the pinyin and immediately said: "I understand, this submachine gun belongs to Ma Tong!"
"Matong's submachine gun! Why is it here?"
Su Yuan was startled and quite confused.
"I don't know either!"
Lan Qingling shook her head, then stared at the submachine gun.
"Xiao Ling, do you recognize this submachine gun?"
Su Yuan hurriedly asked Lan Qingling.
Before Lan Qingling could speak, Yu Baiying came up from behind and said, "Let me see!"
"good!"
Su Yuan handed the submachine gun to Yu Baiying.
Yu Baiying took the submachine gun, glanced at it, and said: "This is a modified version of the M3 submachine gun. The first model was produced by Eagle General Company during World War II. It was later introduced in large quantities by the Philippines, and was modified and equipped with the navy."
Having said this, Yu Baiying checked the M3 submachine gun and pulled the bolt: "The performance of this M3 is still quite good and can be used directly."
"Since it can still be used, we have an extra weapon!"
Su Yuan said, handing the pack of cartridges to Yu Baiying: "Instructor Yu, you are better at using weapons, I will give you this submachine gun."
"good!"
Yu Baiying was not polite and took the pack of bullets.
However, when she took the magazine, Yu Baiying suddenly felt something strange.
So Yu Baiying gently fiddled with the bottom of the magazine with her fingers, and pulled out something like a hair.
This is a translucent and extremely sticky substance.
"What is this?"
Yu Baiying looked at this hair-like thing and murmured.
"Let me see."
Lan Qingling also moved closer. Because the light in the cave was too dark, she couldn't see clearly what the thing looked like, so she scraped the bottom of the magazine with her fingers and gently pulled it up.
Following Lan Qingling's move, the thing was stretched into very long filaments...
"This thing has strong ductility, and it also has a strange fishy smell, as if it is the secretion of some kind of creature!"
Lan Qingling put the elongated filament to her nose, smelled it, and then said this.
Yu Baiying was startled and muttered: "What kind of creature would have such secretions?"
"Um... there are many insects in nature that have sticky secretions like this, but you don't know what kind of insects they are until you see them!"
