Chapter 269 Treasure Map [3] [Seeking monthly ticket]

"Professor Yang, if this skeleton was lying in a coffin, then with these movements and expressions, we can infer that maybe she had a difficult birth, the child was born, and she went into shock, but was thought to be dead and buried. As a result, she woke up in the grave, unwilling to die like this, and struggled hard, and finally suffocated to death. As a result, the body became like this?"

Zhang Wufeng thought for a moment and asked.

"Yes, if there was a coffin, then everything would make sense, and what you said would be correct. But now there is no coffin, and there are no other traces of carving here, and her bones are not messed up, so we can only say that this woman must have escaped here secretly, gave birth here, and then died. If this is the case, then where is the child she gave birth to?" Yang Wubing pondered, he stood up, and shone the lamp in his hand towards other places in the distance and around him.

Wherever the light passed, there was some dark yellow liquid flowing in the moss on the cave wall, and a gloomy damp air filled the air, making people feel sleepy and listless involuntarily. Of course, they would also feel a tingling scalp after a sudden shiver.

"Her bones and other parts are obviously intact, but this cave is connected to the outside world. Doesn't that mean that no wolves or the like run in here? Or does it mean that wolves and other carnivores feel the danger in here and don't go deeper into the cave?" Zhang Wufeng said thoughtfully.

His crystal power enveloped the surroundings, but he did not find anything strange around the cave, nor any so-called tombs. You should know that in addition to the width of this cave being about two and a half meters, it can even extend ten meters in front, behind, left and right. Ten meters is a very large range.

"This is possible. I am now trying to guess where the newborn baby is." Yang Wubing pondered, his expression becoming serious.

I don’t believe in superstition now, but that’s just because superstition was suppressed too severely in those days, but it doesn’t mean that superstition doesn’t exist. People who do science must first know how to question, and the same is true for those who do biological research.

"Professor, what you said is a bit scary. Isn't this just a bone? We can ignore it and move forward. If we really don't have the confidence to go on, then we can go back." Li Lu said in an trying to calm voice.

However, she didn’t know whether it was because it was too cold and depressing here, or because she was a little scared and nervous, but she shivered from time to time.

"Well, first we have to try our best to understand the cause of death of this skeleton, otherwise if we go forward, the result will be hard to say. It would be best if we figure it out and then make some preparations ourselves in related aspects, so that we can be safer." Yang Wubing said carefully.

"Well, what Professor Yang said is also my idea." Zhang Wufeng nodded in agreement.

"Professor, I heard from the elders in our village that if a woman gives birth to a child in the wild, the land watered by the blood will become a 'corpse breeding ground'. If someone is buried there, that person will 'reform' and become a demon, harming people everywhere.

They would wear a black cloak and kneel down to worship the sun every morning when it rises. Then they would transform into their previous appearances, return home, and eat all their wives, children, and elders.

To deal with such a thing, you have to dig up its grave, then divide its undecayed body into seven parts and bury them in seven different places. This is the only way to kill it completely."

Han Lisa suddenly said in a deep voice.

Zhang Wufeng subconsciously glanced at the girl. He felt a little strange that the girl suddenly said this at this time.

"Wow, Lisa, what are you talking about? Don't talk nonsense." Li Lu was startled and looked around quickly. Seeing the pile of bones not far away, she immediately took a few steps back. After leaning close to Zhang Wufeng, she hugged Zhang Wufeng's shoulders with both hands and held him tightly without letting go.

"Han Lisha, those are just rumors, don't take them seriously. In fact, it's nothing, no need to make a fuss." Yang Wubing said, glancing at the bones on the ground, then turned around and said, "Let's go, don't pay attention to those bones, it looks like they are at least hundreds of years old. Even if what Han Lisha said is true, it can't happen to us.

Yang Wubing continued to walk forward while Yang Encai and Zhao Dongsong followed with a tingling feeling, followed by Han Lisha with a blank expression, and then Li Lu followed holding Zhang Wufeng's arm.

"Teacher, how do you know that the bone is hundreds of years old?" Yang Encai asked. He wanted to use academic questions to dilute the fear in his heart.

"Arsenic was often used in ancient times, probably to whiten the skin. In modern times, no cosmetics can do that. And this method was commonly used at least two or three hundred years ago, so there is nothing strange about it.

Also, classmate Han Lisha, don't say those things anymore. Although the old people in the countryside always like to talk about these things, it's better not to say them here now. Don't make the atmosphere too heavy, which will be detrimental to your growth. "Yang Wubing said seriously.

"Well, mentor, I won't say anything more. You will see it." Han Lisa said calmly, with a flash of darkness in her eyes.

After she finished speaking, Yang Encai, Zhao Dongsong and Li Lu all looked at her strangely. She suddenly smiled at the three of them, which scared them so much that they took a few steps back.

Among them, Li Lu, who was a girl and was a little timid, was almost scared to tears.

Zhang Wufeng stared at Han Lisha. For the first time, the crystal force suddenly completely covered her body. At this time, a faint black mist suddenly escaped from her body. After the black mist dissipated under the control of the crystal force, Han Lisha paused slightly and suddenly fell to the ground. "Lisha, what's wrong with you?" Li Lu exclaimed immediately, and ran over without thinking too much and helped Han Lisha up.

Zhang Wufeng, on the other hand, fell into deep thought.

Because he didn't want to observe the body structure characteristics of these five people, Zhang Wufeng's crystal power only surrounded everything around him, but did not penetrate the bodies of the five people. It was like putting an object in a plastic bag and then putting it into water. The crystal power was like water, and the other party was like the object, with a plastic bag protecting them.

At this moment, seeing the inexplicable danger, Zhang Wufeng's crystal power spread out evenly, completely covering the bodies of the five people. In this way, even if there was a single white hair on their bodies, it could not escape Zhang Wufeng's perception.

However, this would be a disadvantage for the two girls, Han Lisha and Li Lu.

Just for their safety, Zhang Wufeng didn't have so many concerns.

After the crystal power dissipated like this, Zhang Wufeng clearly felt that some of the black mist on Zhao Dongsong's body had also dissipated, and the black mist on Yang Encai's body was even less, and there was almost no black mist on Li Lu's body.

However, Yang Wubing had none of that. There was a special spiritual aura surrounding his body that was able to keep the black fog out. This was probably the upright spirit of a scholar.

"These dark energies are similar to resentment and gloomy energies. They wander in extremely dark places and do not dissipate. This leads to the scene before our eyes." Zhang Wufeng pondered.

As he grew up, he gradually saw the true nature of some superstitions.

According to the law of conservation of energy, energy cannot exist out of thin air, nor can it disappear out of thin air, but it can be transferred directly from one object to another. So, from this point of view, before a person dies, he still possesses enormous mental power, especially when he has hatred or unwillingness, this mental energy will be very strong.

After a person dies, this energy is transferred into the air. If the air does not flow or happens to form a kind of energy conservation in a certain place, then this hateful thought will always exist.

Once a person with poor mental strength passes by such a place, the thought will be transmitted to the medium, causing a phenomenon of "encountering a ghost".

In fact, this is a process of energy transfer and transmission.

"I, aren't we sitting over there? Why are we here?" After waking up, Han Lisa asked in a daze, her eyes still a little confused.

She herself had never expected this result. She had no memory of what happened after entering the cave.

"Ah, you don't remember what happened just now?" Li Lu was also shocked and asked?
At this time, Yang Wubing also stopped and looked at Han Lisa with some doubt.

Han Lisha stood up and looked around. Then her eyes fell on the pile of bones not far behind her. She was slightly startled and said, "I remember a little. It seems that I took the treasure map and escaped here. The treasure map... That unfaithful man deserves to die. I must not give birth to a child for him! I want to make his family extinct!"

As Han Lisa spoke, she suddenly started yelling loudly and madly.

"Ah, hahahaha, I will let them all die in here and make his family extinct! Anyone who enters this legendary devil's cave will die, hahaha!" Han Lisa screamed like crazy.

"Ah——" Zhao Dongsong, Yang Encai and Li Lu were all frightened this time.

Zhang Wufeng understood the reason for the incident and was not too worried. He smiled, and the crystal power surged, suddenly releasing a trace of it into Han Lisha's brain. Then, Zhang Wufeng imagined that the warm colorful light of the crystal between his eyebrows spread throughout his body, and he integrated this feeling into the crystal power and transmitted it over. Then he took back the crystal power.

At this moment, Han Lisa's body trembled, and she finally woke up, her eyes becoming completely clear.

"You are all here. I was scared to death just now. I had a nightmare. It was horrible, just like the real thing." Han Lisha wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and said with some fear.
-
I had a cold and fever yesterday and today, and I was in a bad mood, so I couldn't keep up with the updates. But there are so many updates every day, and I hope you can support me by voting for me with a few monthly tickets.

It’s the last few days of this month, but there’s been no movement in the monthly ticket sales. It’s a big blow. Plus, I’m feeling dizzy and feverish, and the weather is cold, which really hurts my heart.
