Here Lies The Wicked

Chapter 37 The Person Who Disappeared

The line that entered the bottom of the river gradually approached the stone house complex.

There was a fishy smell of seaweed mud in the air.

The flagstone road was covered with thick moss, and it was slippery and hard to walk.

These people were disciplined, did not make any noise, and did not communicate privately.

They all followed closely behind the middle-aged man with the word "Application team" and were on alert.

When they stepped into the stone house complex, they saw that the surrounding area was full of collapsed ruins, almost all of the stone houses had been destroyed, only two of them were still standing in the middle.

"Search."

Everyone dispersed and began to search the ancient buildings carefully.

Application team and a few people around him, a total of about a dozen people, were personally searching for the only two intact stone houses in the middle of the group.

When they approached the two stone houses, they found that the design of the stone house was very strange. There were no windows, only a Bronze door with two pages open. After such a long time of soaking and corroding in the river water, the bronze door was already covered with a layer of bronze rust green.

At this moment, two stone houses, one Bronze door, were in good condition, but the other stone house, the Bronze door, was damaged and collapsed after being immersed in water for a long time. From the outside, it looked inside the house. It was dark and could not be seen.

"Li heng, take a few people to clean up the stone house and see if you can find anything. I'll continue searching for the stone house in front of me."

A team of about a dozen people split into two.

Application team and the rest of his men began to clean up the sand on the intact bronze door to see if there were any clues. He remained calm and did not push the door open without knowing it.

However, these people were not archaeologists after all, and the cleaning was inevitably a little rough, but the speed was better, and the cleaning was quickly completed. As expected, a clue was found on the bronze door.

The ancient people had always respected the culture of bronze ware, and often used it as a sacrificial vessel. For example, when the prince was buried, there were many bronze ware in the accompanying funeral items. They liked to depict their life and past events on the bronze ware, and to praise their life. The bronze door in front of him was carved with the past of a person.

However, after a long period of exposure to the harsh and humid environment, the bronze surface had been seriously rusted and the carving had been destroyed in large areas. It could only be vaguely seen that the beginning seemed to be unfolded with a man.

But in the middle was a blur.

So his eyes went straight to the end, and he finally found something.

The carvings showed two dismembered bodies and a few extra lines on the wound, as if to show that the person who had been cut at this time was still alive and still breathing.

Then two coffins appeared, and a group of people began to lift the two bodies that were still bleeding.

After that, the image was damaged.

When he saw the picture again, it was carved that someone raised a hammer and was nailing the coffin lid.

The image behind was completely destroyed, and it was hard to see what was described.

Neither did they see where the two coffins were buried.

"If the man at the beginning was the one who was cut off by the Bronze door, it seems that the man had just been cut off by the waist and had not stopped breathing, he was immediately sealed into two coffins, nailed to the coffin lid, and suffocated to death in the coffin."

"Is this a chop and burial?" Application team's eyebrows were tightly knitted together, and his face was extremely serious.

Whether it was cutting the waist or burying it alive, it was a cruel torture.

Who the hell was this man, what kind of powerful person he had offended, and how he had suffered two kinds of cruel torture at the same time? One could imagine how angry he was before he died.

No wonder she was buried under the river and sank to the ground forever.

The others were very disciplined, and no one answered. Application team thought about it, then picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Old yan, I found some interesting clues in these stone houses. Have you found anything over there?"

On the other end of the walkie-talkie, a reply came quickly, "Did you also find the carving on the bronze door on your side?"

"Looks like you found something, too." Application team said as he began to order people to open the Bronze door.

At this time, captain yan said mysteriously, "I'll give you another clue. Look carefully at the direction of these stone houses. Have you found out that these stone houses are not facing north and south, but east and west."

Hearing this, Application team's face changed greatly.

He quickly looked up and examined it carefully. The more he looked at it, the more serious he became. Whether it was the collapsed stone house or the only two intact stone houses in front of him, they were all in the east and west direction.

There is a saying among the people that the gate faces south and the children and grandchildren are not cold. The gate was facing west, crying loudly.

It meant that the gate was facing west, the light was extremely bad, the house was dark and cold, and the air was extremely cold.

There were also rumors among the people that newborn children could see things that ordinary people could not see, so they often cried when they were young. It was because they saw something terrible that they were frightened. The main gate was facing west, crying loudly, which was the moral.

Application team's face changed because he thought that the stone house complex under the river was probably not reserved for the people who built the tomb!

It's very likely that it has other uses!

As he dug deeper, Application team began to feel that there was something buried under the river. The water was so deep that it was gradually exceeding everyone's expectations.

Just as he was worried, captain yan's exclamation came from the walkie-talkie.

"Eh? This is... Old buddy, you would never have thought that I had a major discovery here!"

"What discovery?" Application team perked up.

However, the next walkie-talkie was dead silent, as if a signal had been cut off.

Application team immediately had a bad feeling.

But his eyes were calm. Instead of shouting at the walkie-talkie, he held his breath and waited for an answer. At the same time, he kept everyone around him quiet.

Ten seconds... Twenty seconds... One minute, huff, huff, the walkie-talkie was as quiet as a pool of stagnant water, leaving only Application team's breathing.

Heh, heh... Heh, all of a sudden! A strange sound came from the walkie-talkie, like a twisted sound of bones.

The sound continued.

Application team's heart skipped a beat.

"Run!"

Suddenly, captain yan's weak voice came from the walkie-talkie, but it stopped in the middle of the conversation. He was shouting for Application team to run away, asking Application team to run away quickly!

Application team's eyes were filled with pain and sadness, but he resolutely ordered everyone to withdraw from the bottom of the river and go ashore immediately.

However, at this juncture, someone found that li heng and others who went to another stone house to search for clues had not moved since they entered the stone house.

Application team immediately took his men to look for him.

As a result, no trace of li heng and the others was found. When they inquired about the others nearby, they also said that li heng and the others had never seen them come out after entering the stone house.

For a moment, no one was alive or dead, and five or six of the great living people disappeared under their noses.

Just as everyone was looking for a few missing people, someone exclaimed, "When did this fog appear at the bottom of the river?"
