Chapter 0013 – A Hundred Martyrs’ Ditch (2 / 2)

Li Wenhai was so excited while I crouched down and grabbed a handful of sand in my hand.

I looked down and pondered, this sand texture fine, is a rare river bottom sand, this thing put outside, it is said that those rich people to build houses, like to use this very fine sand and cement, do out of the wall and then smeared with gray even flies can not stand …… eye, these river bottom sand all over the foot, it is not difficult to imagine, the cave underneath if there really is a tomb! If there is really a tomb underneath the cave, the owner of that tomb has to be how rich, to be so tossed and fussed over so much river bottom sand to get here.

“Rhubarb, smell it.”

I brought the sand to the front of the rhubarb and gave it a few sniffs, but as a result of this sniffing, the rhubarb’s two dog ears suddenly perked up, and its dark eyes were full of panic and uneasiness!

“What’s wrong Rhubarb?” I asked hurriedly.

The rhubarb barked vigorously and said nothing to keep me from going further.

I frowned, and behind me, Zhou Xiaoshe curiously said, “Old Tie, what’s up with this dog of yours? Why did it start barking again?”

I shook my head in disbelief.

Li Wenying also spoke up, “Little brother, could it be that it’s telling you that there’s some monster up ahead?”

I paused, and after sniffing the river bottom sand in my hand again, I said, “There is a corpse odor on this sand, whether there are monsters in front of me I don’t know, but the corpses, there must be quite a lot of them ……”

“Corpses? Where did you get a corpse in this place? It can’t be dumplings, right?” Zhou Xiaoshe winced and said.

“Just go and see.”

I patted the rhubarb, and then quickly marched ahead, protected by the rhubarb’s vigilance.

Two or three minutes later, I stood beside a pothole that had been hollowed out of thin air, no, to be precise, it should have been the edge of a ditch that was twenty to thirty meters long, and I stood woodenly in place, my entire backbone filled with cold sweat.

Zhou Xiaoshe and Li Wenhai also rushed over, but the first to speak out was the only woman among us-Li En.

Li En couldn’t help but let out a gasp, but she immediately covered her mouth again, her face filled with horror ……

Only to see that at a distance of less than two or three meters from us, the ditch, which had been dented in the ground out of nowhere, was filled with corpses of all shapes and sizes.

I fixed my eyes to see, these corpses have long withered into a dry corpse, even the clothes on the body, but also all the ragged to see what age, and even some, broken limbs and legs, the body on the side of the emergence of a number of holes, some of the body of black hairy rats in the holes in these corpses scurrying to and fro, it’s not a good time ……

“Granny bear, so many corpses!!!”

Zhou Xiaoshe also can not help but exclaimed, the ditch is twenty to thirty meters long, this glance over, the body filled in the inside, at least there are several hundred, so many corpses, the face is completely different, in the dark environment and under the long years, the bones have long been weathered, leaving the air is still residual a faint smell of corpses ……

Li Wenhai came forward and carefully examined a recent corpse.

He was an archaeology junkie, and determining the time of death of a corpse was nothing more than a piece of cake for him.

After a while, Li Wenhai, who finished examining the corpses, stood up, his face muscles twitched fiercely, and said: ”Little brother, little Taoist, if my guess is correct, these corpses, the time of death are all about five hundred years later, I think, if there is a tomb inside, it should be a Ming tomb undoubtedly, as far as I know, those who are qualified to open the martyrdom rites in the Ming Dynasty, at least have to be a prince or a marquis level, according to the number of corpses in this martyrdom ditch, the owner of that tomb, is most likely a Ming Dynasty prince …….”
