Chapter 914 Underwater Bones
Although wood does rot faster in a humid environment, even if it rots, you can still see some traces of its past existence in the soil, and it is impossible to disappear without a trace.

Therefore, I can only infer that the wooden houses that once stood here had collapsed at least before the Qing Dynasty.

It is still unknown when the people of the Zhouyao clan were relocated or whether they were exterminated.

but……

Everything in the world, as long as it has ever existed, can find traces of its existence.

The three of us had a tacit understanding and started frantically digging for clues in this area.

It was better not to dig. After digging like this, we actually found a lot of fallen and rotten wood under the shallow mud layer.

Among the wood, you can even find a lot of broken porcelain, some former household items, and some copper coins.

These porcelains were from all dynasties before the Qing Dynasty, indicating that the last people living here should be in the late Ming Dynasty.

Combined with the fact that a lot of Chongzhen Tongbao were found underground, it can be roughly determined that these Zhou You clan members should have left here around the Chongzhen period.

Why is it said to be leaving rather than being exterminated?

It was entirely because Feng Jiuqing and Lin Sishen dug three feet deep in this residential area and couldn't find even a single body. Instead, they found some traces of a fight underground that were much more serious than those outside.

There were so many traces of fighting but no bodies, indicating that they probably fought a fierce battle and had time to clean up the mess and bury the bodies elsewhere before finally leaving.

We also found many small coffin-style tombs that were unique to the Zhouyuan tribe before the Qing Dynasty on a mountain behind the village.

Combined with some graves and the traces of sacrifices left by people about a few years ago or more than ten years ago, it can be roughly inferred that there are definitely descendants of the Zhou Rao tribe alive in the world.

only……

where are they now

Did it move to a place far away, or did it start a new village in another area of ​​Shennongjia?
With full curiosity, the three of us continued to search here, but found nothing even after dark.

Until we were planning to leave and come back tomorrow to have a look, we discovered some clues in a pond outside the village...

It was a stone tablet soaked in water, with only a little lotus pattern on the top of the tablet exposed.

Lin Sishen jumped to the middle of the pool and stood on the stone tablet. Just when he wanted to see if there were any words on the underwater stone tablet, he accidentally stepped on the stone tablet and collapsed...

If he hadn't reacted very quickly and used his strength to get back to the shore, he would have probably fallen into the water.

The stone monument collapsed, and we had no other option but to drain all the water from this pond.

It was only after the water was drained that the true appearance of everything under the pond was revealed to our eyes.

unimaginable...

Under this pond, there are actually large areas of bones!
These white bones were covered with deep knife marks, as if they had been tortured with something before death.

"Oh my God, these bones are not the corpses of those surrounding tribesmen, are they?" Lin Sishen swallowed, seeming a little shocked.
