Aying walked over and asked curiously.
Yue Guanchao calmly stuffed the photo into Song Siyuan's note: "What's in it? We were both thinking, aren't your parents here to pick herbs? How about we go to the nearby woods to have a look?"
He bared his teeth and faked a smile, looking guilty!
When Ah Ying heard this, she looked startled and smiled: "Okay... then, let's go."
Yue Guanchao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she had no suspicion, but a trace of doubt came to his mind!
Just now, Aying was even more natural than him. No, this little girl must be hiding a secret from them.
Wow!
"what sound?"
Yue Guanchao often lived in the mountains and forests, and his hearing and vision were very sharp. Just now he clearly saw a dark shadow passing by them.
"Watching the tide, did you see something? Could it be a wild beast or something?"
"No!" Yue Guanchao's expression became serious: "Do beasts know how to wear shoes? There was a sound of shoe soles hitting the ground just now. Follow me!"
Yue Guanchao led them into the grass and followed the seeming movement. Several of them found that the weeds were getting deeper and deeper and had reached their thighs.
Yue Guanchao looked around. They were far away from the main street in the back. This place probably used to be a wide field. It had been left unmaintained for decades and was now covered with dense weeds.
When the wind blows, the grass sways like a sea of green, and the tiny movements in the air become more dense!
He could feel that there were living things around him, but why couldn't he see them?
"The house in front seems different from the residential house just now!"
Song Siyuan pointed to the building at the front of the grass and said.
Yue Guanchao looked far away, and a two-story ancient building came into view, which was completely different from the secular buildings!
The ancient building is strange and mysterious. From the front, it looks like two layers of bamboo hats superimposed, with two layers of false eaves, one long and one short. The windows are half-covered by irregular stone curtains, connected only by rough pillars and supported on the stone. On top of the ladder wall, the huge arch surrounds the wall. Most of it has been covered by vines and grass. Those who didn't know it thought it was a green hill. There is almost no extra decoration, and the look is primitive and rough.
"This thing is like a tower, not a tower, and an altar is not an altar. What on earth is it?"
He held Song Siyuan's telescope and his tone was full of curiosity.
"This is normal. From the moment I entered the river arcade, I have already felt that this place seems to be separated from the outside civilization and has a unique development trajectory. According to the architectural functions, such a large place will definitely have gatherings, sacrifices, and gatherings. Waiting for functions, we have never seen such a densely packed building along the way. All in all, something must have happened here!"
Song Siyuan explained on the side.
Yue Guanchao picked up a machete and cut off the surrounding weeds, and everyone approached the mysterious tower together.
Song Siyuan raised her camera and took pictures.
A gust of wind blew by, and she seemed to smell a special smell. She casually opened the wild vines on the wall, and a wall as black as ink suddenly appeared inside.
When he reached out and touched it, his white jade hands were covered with black ash. That's where the smell just came from.
She tugged on Yue Guanchao's sleeve and motioned him to look toward the wall. He picked up the dagger and stabbed it into the wall. The blade was still half an inch charred.
"Burned by fire!"
They both said in unison.
"What kind of fire would it take to burn down the wall until half an inch of it is filled with charcoal ash?"
Click!
Yue Guanchao heard the sound again, followed the sound and broke into the archway, shouting at the door:
"Which grandson is so shy and stands up for me!"
"You're such a weakling, you don't even dare to show your face."
"Designation is not a good thing..."
No one... No way, Yue Guanchao stood at the door provocatively for a long time, except for the rustling of the wind, there was no movement.
Somehow, he felt the surroundings getting colder and turned on the flashlight to take a closer look!
Inside the tower, the stone walls are tall and solid. Bamboo curtains can be vaguely seen in the corridors. However, only the chains were left after being burned by the fire. The spider threads are floating randomly. The columns are mostly reliefs of falcon-antlered deer, which are burnt black and mottled and cracked. .
The only source of light in this tower is the many windows on the second floor facing the stage. Although the sun is not shining, the blurry skylight from the outside can still be seen, which can be regarded as a temporary glimmer of light in the dark environment.
"Sister Siyuan, this thing seems to be a stage, right?"
Aying stood by the corridor and looked at the central stage through the turbid skylight. The red lacquered drums on both sides were as big as water tanks. The cowhide drum heads had undergone years of oxidation and turned into a sauce-yellow color. You could even see traces of different shades on the drum heads. I don't know if it's blood stains or rain erosion.
Song Siyuan turned on the flashlight, and the stage that was originally hidden in the darkness gradually came into view. Everyone was immediately attracted by the curtain wall behind the stage.
This tomb wall is not the flowers, birds, insects, fish, pines and cypresses commonly used in the world, nor is it a rare and auspicious beast such as a phoenix or unicorn. This is a goshawk with its wings spread flat!
Its sharp eagle eyes are lifelike. Under its plump and majestic body, the fine fur is realistic, even the details of the forked curls. The knotted talons are extremely sharp, coupled with the hooked beak that specially protrudes from the curtain wall. It looked like a goshawk as big as a carriage, spreading its huge wings and swooping down on the living people.
The further you go down, the more dead bones, rotten flesh, and bloody internal organs of various animals appear, which makes one’s scalp clench at the sight!
