Chapter 399 Mummy
When we saw the pale flashlight shining over us, our hearts instantly became tense!
No! This is Wang Yuanchao's way of reminding us that there is danger ahead.
I originally wanted to discuss with the fat man whether we should bring in some heavy firepower to support him. However, the fourth girl walked over without even saying hello. Seeing this, I had no choice but to follow suit, leaving the fat man behind who was stomping his feet angrily and scolding.
When did the fourth girl become so reckless?
I thought that at this point, the fourth girl would definitely not give up any clues.
When I opened the woods and took a look, I found a corpse hanging upside down on the weeds as tall as a small tree. The corpse was wearing a yellow military uniform. The whole body was completely shriveled. The head that had lost all moisture was like
Like dried grapes, his empty eyes seemed to be filled with endless resentment, looking at our group of uninvited guests indifferently.
"Grandma, it's so fucking unlucky to meet a dead person again!" The fat man just followed from behind. When he saw it was a mummy, he was so angry that he spat several times.
I turned my attention to Wang Yuanchao and asked, "What's going on?"
Wang Yuanchao said: "I don't know either. I just found this body when I was clearing the weeds. I think this body died abnormally, so I sent you a red flag."
After finishing speaking, Wang Yuanchao skillfully cut away the plants wrapped around the corpse's feet, put the corpse down, and reported to me: "The corpse should be a male soldier, wearing leather boots and a military uniform with a stand-up collar. He is not very tall.
It's about 1.67 meters tall! The corpse is probably old and has changed beyond recognition. The identification tag on the chest has rusted into slag, and it's impossible to tell which country it is a soldier..."
I also know that with the current means, it is remarkable that Wang Yuanchao can see so many details.
Unexpectedly, the fourth girl squatted down, and without being too dirty, she directly drew a circle on the back of the mummy's head with her white fingers, and then fiercely picked off a large piece of the skull, which made us grin.
I didn't know what the fourth girl was going to do, so I asked him: "What's wrong?"
"This man died after his brains were sucked dry." The fourth girl said as she dragged the mummy under the flashlight to show us: "Although this corpse is completely rotten, look at his brain. It's empty inside."
I paused for a moment, and suddenly thought of those extremely ferocious blue-faced mandrills, and asked, "Is it possible that the blue-faced mandrills are responsible for this?"
"It's not impossible." The fourth girl looked back and stared at me: "But how can blue-faced mandrills suck human brains? Don't they eat bamboo?"
"This..." I paused for a moment and felt that what the fourth girl said was reasonable.
The fat man on the side quickly interjected: "Are there other monsters around? In any case, at least it proves that the tomb is nearby."
"That's not right." Just when we were about to continue discussing, Aaron suddenly interrupted our conversation.
Fatty and Uncle Ming's nephew Aaron had been quarreling with each other. When he saw him interrupting everyone's conversation, he was ready to say something back. However, as soon as he turned around, he found that Aaron was holding a hand that had just been pulled out of the soil.
A green can box with a line of strange numbers clearly carved on it by a knife.
"Is this... a secret code?" the fat man shouted in surprise.
"Another code?"
When we heard the code again, we were all startled, and then we all looked at the rusty can in Aaron's hand.
Uncle Ming seemed to be more impatient than us. Before we could speak, he asked, "What's going on? Is this one of ours?"
Although I haven't seen what the code is, I also know that what Uncle Ming said is absolutely impossible. Judging from the degree of death of this mummy, it has obviously been dried in nature for decades, so how could it be Uncle Ming?
Where are the three groups of troops sent here before?
Sure enough, I heard James shake his head and say: "No, this code is different from the one we used. It seems to be an old code from the Second World War."
"World War II?" This time it was our turn to be surprised. None of us expected that in the mysterious land of Lishan, codes from the World War II era would actually appear.
Before I could figure out what was going on, Wang Yuanchao said confidently: "Let me see! I also learned a lot of telegraph codes back then, maybe I can crack them."
But what's disappointing is that after we waited for a while, we didn't see Wang Yuanchao's tightened eyebrows loosen.
I asked, "Don't you know him?"
Wang Yuanchao sighed slightly.
As Wang Yuanchao sighed, we all fell into silence. A mummy died inexplicably and tragically, and an old code from the Second World War. What on earth is going on in this forest?
Is it possible that someone has been here as early as the last century?
Then what is the purpose of the other party coming here? Is it possible that they are fighting backwards like us?
Just when we were puzzled, Aaron threw the can on the ground and said, "I understand. This code should mean that the tomb is in the cave ahead."
"What the hell, the tomb is in the cave in front?" The fat man was stunned for a moment, and almost lost his joy: "Grandma, I finally found the tomb, so you don't have to trouble me anymore."
I saw that although Aaron's tone was full of promise, there was a bit of cunning in his eyes, and I suddenly had a doubt in my heart, so I thought about going forward and asking.
However, Wang Yuanchao pulled me invisibly from behind and motioned for me to stop talking.
I looked at Wang Yuanchao in confusion and wanted to ask him what was going on. But Wang Yuanchao refused to say a word and just motioned for me to follow him.
After walking forward for a while, Wang Yuanchao deliberately fell two steps behind. Seeing that he finally responded, I asked in a low voice: "Brother Yuanchao, when did you become so mysterious?"
Wang Yuanchao secretly glanced at the backs of Aaron and Uncle Ming, and said with a dark face: "Be careful, there is something wrong with Aaron."
I nodded and said, "I also noticed that his expression was strange, but what is the problem?"
"The problem lies in the code." Wang Yuanchao said.
I was stunned for a moment, then pointed at Wang Yuanchao with sudden realization: "You clearly understood the code just now, but you pretended not to know it!"
"That's right." Wang Yuanchao nodded and explained in a low voice: "Although that code is not common, it was used by the Japanese Kwantung Army during World War II. I actually understood most of it just now, but looking at Aaron Ghost
I was being sneaky and didn't say anything out loud. I was going to see his reaction first, but I didn't expect that it was indeed a scam."
