The years of reselling the haunted house

Chapter 130 The Cage
We looked at the pieces of bones in front of us, which had blocked the way forward.

The depths of the burrow do not yet know what terrible things will lie.

At this moment, there was a sudden crashing sound from the ground.After listening carefully, it turned out to be coming from among those white bones.

We shone our flashlights and found that the bones were moving in some places.It looks like something is going to pop out from below.

"Be careful." I remembered what Ma Di said, the poisonous insects here are very evil, so I reminded loudly.

But I don't know what effect this reminder will have, because even if I don't say it, everyone's nerves are tense.

Sure enough, as soon as I finished speaking, many weird reptiles crawled out of the skull.

Fearing that something might change, we all backed away at the same time.

After taking a few steps back, I found that the reptiles did not attack like the sand wolf.Instead, he shuttled through those bones.

Those white bones were affected, intertwined with each other, and made a rattling sound, which made people get goosebumps.

Soon, those crawling reptiles disappeared into the bones again, and none of them could be seen.

We looked at each other a few times, the situation ahead was unclear, and we didn't know whether to move on or go back the same way.

Just as we hesitated, the bones moved again.

The direction of movement this time is no longer chaotic, but very regular.The skulls and white bones moved to the sides one after another, and a passage gradually formed in the middle.

These bones can actually move by themselves?
This is the question that arises spontaneously for us.But soon found the answer.Just under those bones, densely packed reptiles gathered.

These bones were actually lifted and moved away by those reptiles.

This is another unexpected scene.We watched dumbfounded.

The speed of those reptiles was very fast, the bones were separated to the two sides, and a long and narrow passage stretched forward, leading to the deepest part of the cave.

What happened in Nanliu Village this time has refreshed my cognition again and again.It seems that what weird and bizarre things happen is normal.

Just like the scene in front of me, those are reptiles and insects. Even if I don't study biology, I know that they are different from mammals and cannot be domesticated.But if it is not domesticated, how can this uniform movement be explained?
Looking at the long and narrow passage, even the famous biology professor Ma Di was dumbfounded.

The third uncle said without losing the opportunity: "Professor Ma, what's going on? Explain?"

Ma Di shook his head: "I really can't explain this. It's incredible, how is this possible?"

Liang Yue held the short knife and lost her patience: "Then do you want to go forward?"

The third uncle supported his knees and took a few breaths: "Let's go. The road is paved for us, so what if we don't go?"

Liang Yue nodded, and walked first with a knife in his hand.This girl's courage is really beyond the limit.

Looking at the third uncle's appearance, I guess the remnant soul should be pumped out, and the damage to his vitality has not healed.I handed the tree stick in my hand to the third uncle, and the third uncle was not polite, took the stick and used it as a crutch in his hand, and staggered to follow.

I don't know how long the road for the bones to part is.I was a little apprehensive, so I asked, "Are we sure we want to go down this road? Will someone set a trap and wait for us to fall into the trap?"

After I finished speaking, everyone was silent for a while, and no one could answer my question.

But we all know that as long as there is a road, there will be an end, and this underground passage will not be endless.Sure enough, after we walked out tens of meters, the road ahead came to an end.

I looked back and found that the road we walked when we came was once again paved with dead bones by those reptiles.In other words, after we come here, it is impossible to return from the same way.

If we come, we will be safe, and we have no intention of going back for the time being.Standing in a fixed position, we shone our flashlights forward together.

A few beams of flashlights shone through, and a row of standing wooden fences appeared in the halo, and each wooden fence was as thick as an arm.

After careful identification, we discovered that this was actually a cage surrounded by wooden fences.

And at this time, the piercing friction sound from intertwined white bones also stopped.It was very quiet all around, and a few faint cries for help could be heard coming from the cage.

The voice of calling for help lacked any confidence, as if it was slowly squeezed out from the throat.

We gathered around the wooden fence and shone a flashlight into it at close range.

Now I found out that the size of this cage is not small, and there are more than a dozen people lying here and there.

Most of these people are ragged, and some are even naked and unkempt.

They lay motionless on the ground, and we couldn't tell who made the sound.

The third uncle approached the wooden fence and asked in a low voice, "Are you still alive?"

No one answered, but the voice calling for help was interrupted for a while, and then spoke again: "Alive...alive..."

Liang Yue suddenly pointed to an area closer to us and said, "There, he moved just now."

We focused our attention, and sure enough, there was a person lying on the ground, trying to lift his upper body.

After several attempts, he finally raised his upper body, supported himself with both arms, and crawled towards us.

It's not so much crawling as it is wriggling.Worm-like squirming.

The man finally squirmed in front of the wooden fence and looked up at us.

Seeing that face, we were shocked again.

Judging by the actions of this person, he is already extremely weak, and it seems that he is not far from death.But this face was full of red light, and the complexion didn't match his movements at all.

I was about to open my mouth to ask him a few words, but my third uncle suddenly pulled me beside me.

I was taken aback for a moment, and then I heard Third Uncle whisper: "Pay attention to his clothes."

This person's clothes are still intact, I don't know why the third uncle pays attention to this.

After being reminded by my third uncle, I shone a flashlight on his clothes.The clothes looked like a vest, the color was completely invisible, and something was stained on it, making it extremely filthy.

But on the back of the clothes, there are four words printed.What can be identified are two characters, the first is Tong, and the fourth is Yun.

"Tong, luck... what does this mean?"

The third uncle said: "Tongda Express is a courier company in our area. Later, because of the disappearance of the courier, the courier company has gone out of business..."

"Express company? Thin bamboo pole?"

I took a closer look, and sure enough, the two blurred characters were very similar to the characters "Da" and "Kuai". Uncle San should be right.

My heart moved, could it be that the person locked in the cage is one of the two missing couriers that Chu Liuyan asked to investigate?
