Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 753 Childlike? (4000)

This row of footprints alternated from left to right, and the interval between each step was about the same.

Only people who walk upright can leave such footprints, even the humanoid macaques on the island can't do it, not to mention the old macaque king who is being led by the witch has told Wu Liang that the macaques on the island are not Learn to walk upright.

And what makes Wu Liang's scalp tingle the most is.

This row of footprints appeared less than half a meter behind him, and spread all the way to the larger and farther gap on the left reef!

That is to say, when Wu Liang was talking to Miko Hu, the owner of this row of footprints was behind Wu Liang, and he could be touched by just raising his hand...

If the owner of this row of footprints held a sharp weapon at that time and intended to harm him, he could even wipe his neck with ease, or deal a fatal blow to his waist. In this way, with the existing medical conditions, it is tantamount to announcing the death penalty. His death sentence, even if Zhang Zhongjing and Hua Tuo came, it would be difficult to pull him back from the gate of hell.

"!"

Thinking of this, Wu Liang's back became even more chilly, and a drop of cold sweat had already slid down his spine, causing him to shiver uncontrollably.

This is definitely a problem!
No matter who the owner of the footprints was, or what purpose the other party had, Wu Liang felt extremely disturbed.

Because a person can quietly come behind him, and can make unfavorable actions against him anytime and anywhere without him noticing, he is undoubtedly completely taken care of!

"Wu Taishi, what's the matter with you, what do you have over there?"

The witch noticed Wu Liang's abnormality, subconsciously stopped and asked in surprise through the narrow interlayer in front of her.

At this moment, she could only see Wu Liang's side face and body with complex complexion, even so, it was not difficult to judge that Wu Liang must have seen something extraordinary, which made her nervous.

"Something's wrong, come here first."

Wu Liang didn't dare to look away, and responded without turning his head.

He was still a little scared in his heart, maybe the presence of the witch could make him feel a little more at ease.

However, there is a problem that Wu Liang can't figure out: the owner of the footprints can come behind him quietly, so naturally they can leave quietly, why they have to make some noise when they leave Get his attention?
This is clearly intentional!
But what is the purpose?

Mentality?
It seems that there is only this possibility... but this possibility can be divided into two situations:

Either the owner of the footprints has a psychological problem, and he likes to destroy the mentality of the prey first, and then clean it up when Lu Wu falls into uncontrollable fear;
Or the owner of the footprints can't actually cause him actual harm at all, so he can only choose this method to intimidate him and make him retreat.

What kind of situation is it, Wu Liang is still unable to make a judgment...

As for the row of footprints in the sand.

Wu Liang also couldn't understand it, because he only saw the footprints leaving him, but he didn't see the footprints coming towards him.

That is to say, the owner of the footprints can actually leave no footprints at all, but he left such a row of footprints, which is obviously intentional, so what does this mean?

some kind of guide?

When pondering like this.

"Wu Taishi?"

Suddenly a faint voice came from the ear.

"Ugh?!"

Wu Liang was staring at the set of footprints in a daze, but when he heard the voice, he trembled in fright, jumped up instantly, and almost stabbed the copper dagger in his hand out of excitement.

Fortunately, he regained his sanity in the next second, turned his head to look at the witch who had come to him at some point, but was also scared by his overreaction and retreated several steps, and he stroked his chest and sucked. He said in a tone: "Scare me, how did you come here so fast?"

"You startled me!"

The witch was really angry and funny, "I just walked over like this, I didn't run or jump, I just saw you standing there in a daze, so I tried to call you, but it was you who heard me call You startled as if you saw a ghost, what does it have to do with me?"

"My mine."

Wu Liang admitted his mistake quite straightforwardly, although there was no apology on his face.

"Just now you said that something is wrong here, what is wrong?"

Witch Hu didn't bother with him, she leaned out and looked at the slightly wider reef sandwich Wu Liang was facing. She looked at it for a long time but couldn't see why, so she had to ask.

"The most strange thing is that this row of footprints is not mine."

Wu Liang pointed to the footprints on the sand and said.

"It's not yours?"

The witch was stunned when she heard the words, and finally understood Wu Liang's meaning after reacting for a while, then her beautiful eyes widened instantly, and she asked like a cannonball with surprise on her face, "Who would have left it? Is there anyone else? Did you see that person? Did that person run away when he saw you?"

"I didn't see anything. I heard some movement when I was talking to you just now. When I turned around, I saw this row of footprints."

Wu Liang shook his head helplessly.

"?!"

The witch was stunned again.

Looking at Wu Liang with his eyes wide open and his lips pursed, he was silent for a while before finally asking: "Couldn't Taishi Wu use this footprint to fool me? I used to play this kind of trick when I was very young. The next time it snowed heavily in Wa country, I got up early while the witch mother was still sleeping, walked all the way outside the shrine, then backed up to make good footprints and returned the same way, and then hid in the cabinet until the witch mother woke up, and the witch mother woke up Seeing the footprints, I thought I had sneaked out again, so I called my name all the way out to look for it.”

"In your eyes, am I that boring?"

Wu Liang gritted his teeth. Now that we are talking about business, he has no time to argue with the witch.

"I don't think it's boring, it's a loving childlikeness that only shows up in front of important people."

Although Miko Ho didn't answer directly, she nodded seriously.

"I repeat, I did not leave these footprints..."

Wu Liang was a little crazy, but suddenly felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the witch's words, and he didn't know whether he was defending his friendship with the witch mother, or mixed with other meanings, and actually used the word "love".

Wu Liang is not so narcissistic, and of course he would not believe that Miko Hu developed some kind of affection just after being with him for such a short period of time, not to mention that unlike Bai Jingjing and Zhen Mi, Wu Liang didn't give Miko Hu anything at all these days. He has a good face, and he didn't say anything to tease or tease him, so if it wasn't for Miko Hu's unique taste, he shouldn't have any good feelings for him at all.

After a pause, Wu Liang withdrew his thoughts and said seriously: "In short, this is definitely not a normal phenomenon. Next, we must be more careful, just in case we can no longer act separately."

"promise."

Witch Hu did not continue to talk to Wu Liang about what was there, but followed the example of Yang Wanli and others and gave Wu Liang a military salute.

……

With the psychological shadow just produced.

Although Wu Liang couldn't determine the identity of the owner of the footprints, nor could he guess the real purpose, but he still decided to continue to investigate, and decided to follow the row of footprints all the way.

Because he prefers that the row of intentionally left footprints is actually a guide.

Whether the result is good or bad, following the row of footprints will definitely get close to the truth in the shortest time. Fast forward to the second boot landing, it is better than wandering aimlessly in this reef group.

So the two of them followed the row of footprints and walked straight into the slightly larger gap on the left reef.

After entering that gap, the footprints on the ground disappeared inexplicably.

Wu Liang originally thought that if the row of footprints continued, he could use this to refute the so-called "childlike fun" called by the witch. After all, no matter how childlike he is, time also limits the length of "childlike fun".

However, the reef in this place is much shorter.

According to Wu Liang's visual inspection, the reef is only less than two meters long, and it is only slightly higher than the top of his head. If he jumps up, he can see the top of the reef.

at the same time.

This piece of reef is no longer in the shape of a wall like the reefs outside, but rather densely connected into one piece, which looks like a group of broccoli flowers that are tightly packed together.

What is even more ecstatic for those with trypophobia is that there are fewer pits on this reef that hide strange stone fish.

It's a pity that the footprints have disappeared inexplicably now.

Wu Liang also had no "shortcuts" to take, so he could only lead the witch Hu and the old macaque king to continue searching aimlessly.

But before that.

"Don't move around here, I'll go buy a few... I'll climb up and have a look first."

Wu Liang said this to the witch.

He planned to climb up to the reef, which was less than two meters long, and stand on the reef to observe the surrounding situation, because this piece of reef was about the same height as far as the eye could see, and standing on the reef, he could naturally see farther.

"Be careful."

The witch nodded in response.

"Ah."

The surface of the reef is rough and uneven, although it is slightly difficult to handle, it is more conducive to climbing.

Wu Liang has been running outside all year round, and his physical fitness is not bad. He has already stood on the top of the rock in front of him in two or three steps.

Because there is no obstruction of tall reefs here, the sun shines in smoothly, and the vision is naturally much better, and you can go far away at a glance.

It turns out.

Wu Liang's choice was right. He just went up and saw two small rocky mountains that looked round like steamed buns tens of meters away.

The two small rocky mountains are not far apart, and they are not too high, about four or five meters. This is the commanding height of this reef. If you can climb the two small rocky mountains, you can definitely see farther and farther. It is easy to see the whole picture of the area at a glance.

"Go over there!"

With a clear goal, Wu Liang jumped off the reef, led the witch Hu and the old macaque king to move on.

At the same time, he also noticed that the state of the old macaque king was not as good as before.

It wasn't that there was something wrong with the body, but an abnormality in the mental state. Although it was forcibly led and had to come in with Wu Liang and the witch, it was almost curled up now, with its tail completely tucked under its buttocks. His expression became even more tense, and his limbs were still trembling unconsciously, as if he was very cold.

But if Wu Liang remembered correctly, the temperature in the stone cave under Yushan Mountain was colder than here, and the old macaque king was not like this at that time.

So it should not be cold, but fear?

It's just that what it is afraid of is still unknown, and now, even if Wu Liang has noticed a lot of things that are wrong, he still has to bite the bullet and continue to investigate.

"Ah."

At this time, Miko Hu was finally a little uneasy, but she still didn't have the intention to quit like an ordinary girl.

Soon.

The two of them and the monkey arrived at the two small rocky mountains very smoothly.

"This is……"

It wasn't until this moment that Wu Liang finally saw some clues.

These two small rocky mountains look like two rounded steamed bun mountains from a distance. When you get closer, you find that they are actually two small mountains stretching for more than ten meters. As it sank, the end part became narrower and narrower, and finally merged with the beach on the ground.

Besides.

These two small mountains are also covered with traces of cracks, making them look like they were built with big stones, but under normal circumstances, even with artificial assistance, it may be difficult to clear the small mountains. The surface builds up such smooth curves...

"Don't act rashly."

Wu Liang felt that the problems with these two small mountains were also very serious, so he settled the witches first, and then carefully searched around the two small mountains.

He first came to a narrow end of one of the hills.

This place is getting thinner and longer than the other end, which looks like a... tail?
Wu Liang made a note for now, and slowly moved to the back of the hill.

However, just as he went around, and as soon as he saw the specific situation behind the small mountain, Wu Liang's footsteps suddenly stopped!
He saw two stone pillars that were obviously broken from the back of the small mountain. These two stone pillars were also broken into many sections, but they were still closely arranged and the original shape could be seen.

Those seem to be two thick... legs?Hind legs? !

"Fuck!"

At this moment, Wu Liang immediately thought of a description in "Yao Shen Zhi Tong Yao", Xu Fu's memories of the huge remains found in this reef at that time.

Could this be the behemoth that Xu Fu had seen?

Wu Liang quickly approached the small mountain, and carefully inspected the cross-sections of the fractures. Sure enough, he found strands of mottled jade seedlings on these cross-sections!

Yes, this must be the behemoth Xu Fu mentioned!
But what exactly is this?

Through some of the exterior details of this small mountain, Wu Liang already had some guesses in his mind.

And the thing he guessed in his mind is that the later generations have already known it. This era and the Qin Dynasty where Xu Fu lived are still a blank field. According to the records, Xu Fu naturally couldn't tell what kind of behemoth it was.
