Sky Surveying Demon Hunt

Chapter 82 Mass Graves

Lianghe County got its name because it is close to Lianghe.

Lin Ji and Lu Zhaoer left the county.

But just after walking along Lianghe, Lin Ji stopped.

Lu Zhaoer also looked at Lin Ji.

"I smell it." She said the smell of blood earlier.

Lin Ji nodded and looked down at his feet.

The ground is brown.

After the blood dries up, it becomes muddy brown together with the mud.

He stretched out his hand and grabbed a handful of soil, obviously near the river, but the soil in his hand was dry.

"The corpse is at the bottom of the river." Lu Zhaoer suddenly walked towards the river and said.

Lin Ji hurried over.

The moon is bright and the river is clear.

The corpses piled up indiscriminately, there are countless, waiting quietly at the bottom of the river.

From time to time, fish and shrimps took a bite, and some corpses had been gnawed until the bones could be seen.

There is no obvious blood, it should have been washed away.

Fortunately, the Liang River is running water and ends in the sea.

"It's the people who were frightened by the monsters and wanted to escape from Lianghe County." Lin Ji whispered, "I think they should go together, and there are quite a few of them. But they were targeted by the monsters. The second time, it is what we are seeing now.”

"Go ahead." Lu Zhao'er pursed her lower lip, her face turning colder.

The two continued to move forward, but neither of them had the intention to speak.

Along the way, he was just silent, looking for traces that Zhan Chengfeng might leave behind.

In this way, it has advanced for two hours.

In the middle of the night, the two of them had already traveled more than a hundred miles, and if Lianghe moved forward, they would have already reached the range of the Qingshan Mountains.

The Qingshan Mountains run across Liangzhou.

A section of the Liang River passes through the range of the mountains.

There are countless monsters in the mountains. I heard that there are big monsters in the depths of the mountains that are equivalent to the seventh and eighth realms of monks.

Anyway, Lin Ji reckoned that in his fourth realm, he would be able to wander around the mountains.

"Do you want to go into the mountains?" Lin Ji looked at Lu Zhaoer.

"Enter." Lu Zhaoer nodded.

But she obviously also knew the risk of entering the mountain, so she said: "I'm not joking about what I said at your house earlier."

"Why did you mention this all of a sudden?" Lin Ji was a little surprised.

"I am the most indecisive person. If you are really in danger, if you can't do anything, I will definitely run for your life without hesitation."

Lu Zhaoer paused and said: "On the other hand, if I am in danger and you can't save me, don't waste time. Life is the most important thing."

Lin Ji smiled, the atmosphere was too serious.

"Don't worry, I will escape faster than you."

"That's the best." Lu Zhaoer didn't smile, but walked into the mountains along the Lianghe River.

Lin Ji rubbed his hands in embarrassment, and muttered: "This kind of character is really cold."

"I can hear it!" Lu Zhaoer's voice came over.

Lin Ji slapped his forehead and hurriedly followed.

I forgot that this person is also in the fourth realm, and his hearing is not so good.

Taking two steps faster, Lin Ji quickly caught up with Lu Zhaoer and walked forward side by side with her.

Entering the forest, a damp smell of rotting vegetation filled everything around.

Every time I landed, I felt the ground collapse.

It is a situation that has fallen leaves over the years and has been inaccessible for a long time.

We advanced in the forest for about half an hour.

Lin Ji casually grabbed the leech that had crawled onto the trouser leg at some point, and after crushing it to death, he frowned slightly and said, "It's not right."

"What?" Lu Zhaoer paused.

"It's too quiet, there shouldn't be only insects chirping."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhaoer also reacted.

"That's right! In this mountain forest, night is the time for ferocious beasts to move about. Why haven't you heard a single roar of beasts for half an hour?"

"As soon as I entered the mountain, I used my spiritual sense to investigate. There are no living things around, of course, except for bugs."

When Lin Ji said that there were no living things, he even included the birds on the branches.

Lu Zhaoer quickly checked and found that it was exactly as Lin Ji said.

She thought for a moment, then hesitated: "The birds and beasts in the mountains also know to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, maybe something happened here."

"And that happened not long ago." Lin Ji said.

Regardless, the two had to move on.

After walking forward for a while, a clearing appeared in front of us.

In the open space, a huge deep pit appeared in front of the two of them.

Both sides are full of broken trees.

Lin Ji and Lu Zhaoer hurriedly quickened their pace and came to the side of the deep pit.

"It's a monk's method, should it be Mr. Zhan?" Lu Zhaoer looked at Lin Ji.

"That's right. The big tree next to it is still fresh at the break, and there are no traces of wind erosion and rain. It's just a few days ago."

While speaking, Lin Ji jumped into the deep pit again.

But just as his feet hit the ground, there was a crisp sound.

Click.

"What?" Lu Zhaoer jumped down when she heard the voice.

"I don't know." Lin Ji pushed the dirt away with his feet.

Along with the dirt, there was also a decayed white bone.

The faces of the two suddenly became serious.

Lin Ji dug for a while with the scabbard, but the soil disappeared after only two palms down.Instead, there are countless white bones and skeletons.

"This is the burial ground." Lin Ji took a deep breath of the muddy smell in the forest, and continued to dig.

Lu Zhaoer on the side also started to help.

After a while, a gap with a length and width of seven to eight feet was dug out.

A pair of dry bones were revealed, piled up randomly, and exposed to the air.

"This is just the tip of the iceberg." Lin Ji frowned, "How can there be such a place where dead people are buried here? And looking at these dead bones, they should have been dead for a long time. No wonder the trees in this place are lush and their roots are stretching out." coming."

"It's a mass grave thousands of years ago."

"What mass grave?" Lin Ji asked puzzled.

"The boundary of Liangzhou was originally called Liang State a thousand years ago, and it was destroyed by the Great Qin." Lu Zhaoer said slowly, "This place should be one of the burial places after the war that destroyed the country."

While talking, Lu Zhaoer pointed to the decayed clothes on the skeleton in the pit.

"There are the clothes of the soldiers of the Great Qin Dynasty and the clothes of the soldiers of the Liang State. You can't go wrong."

"That's it." Lin Ji was stunned.

"Did the soldiers who died in battle be buried in such a hurry?"

"Once you're done with everything, it's not bad if you can find a place to dig a hole and bury it." Lu Zhaoer said.

"Yeah, once you succeed, you will die." Lin Ji nodded.

After the two buried the deep pit again, they continued on their way.

After walking along the river for a short time, a rock wall blocked the way ahead.

The rock wall is not too high, only tens of meters, but the Liang River bypassed the rock wall and flowed in another direction.

And in the middle of the rock wall, there is a dark cave.

"Have you heard it?" Lin Ji looked at Lu Zhaoer again.

"I can smell it." Lu Zhaoer stared at the cave.

The bloody smell that was smelled by the river earlier was not as good as it was here. It was obvious that the bloody smell came from here.
