Chapter 4252: Arrival at the Ruins
The four of them moved on.
As the distance goes deeper, the humidity of the air becomes heavier and heavier.
The lines and drawings on the walls are becoming more and more complex.
When they saw these things, the four of them also knew that what they were looking for was getting closer and closer to them.
Subconsciously, the four of them sped up.
But after walking for a while, I saw a pool ahead.
The diameter of the pool is about seven or eight meters, and the water surface is calm without any ripples.
Lin Yi knelt down and picked up the water.
Ning Che tacitly understood it and shined a flashlight on it.
"The water is very clear, probably from the salt lake."
"I'll try."
"Farewell, what if it's poisonous?" Ning Che stopped him.
"Whether it will cause poisoning depends on the measurement. I'll just give it a try and there will be no problem."
Lin Yi has his own support and the ability to be invulnerable to all poisons. If he gives it a try, there will be no problem.
Gently, Lin Yi took a bite. It tasted very salty.
"It should be the water of the Salt Lake."
Lin Yi stood up and said:
"This place is equivalent to a connector. The two places are connected together. The octopus monster climbed here from the salt lake through this connector-like place."
Ning Che and the other three nodded, and they agreed with this statement.
Lin Yi held a flashlight and shined it on the rock walls on both sides.
"These lines and murals on the wall extend all the way into the water. I guess there must be something underwater."
With that said, Lin Yi took the rope and wrapped it around his waist.
"Take out your rescue rope and connect it with me. I'll go down and take a look. You guys stay here and guard."
"There may be other creatures down there. The two of us together can take care of us when something happens," Ning Che said.
"You two stay here while we go down," Tao Cheng said.
"We don't have enough safety ropes. I can do it myself. Wait for me here."
As he spoke, Lin Yi stepped into the puddle with one foot, and did not give them a chance to speak again.
The three of them had no choice but to connect their own safety ropes to Lin Yi's, so as to ensure Lin Yi's safety to the greatest extent.
After holding his breath, Lin Yi dived into the water.
The situation underwater was better than Lin Yi thought. Under the illumination of the searchlight, the visibility was very high.
Fortunately, no other large creatures were found.
Such high salinity is indeed not suitable for other organisms to survive.
Lin Yi's goal was very clear. He followed the murals on the wall and swam deeper.
At this moment, Lin Yi discovered something was wrong.
Shining the flashlight over it, I found that there were numerous bones at the bottom of the water.
Lin Yi was shocked and swam over.
After some inspection, Lin Yi discovered that those bones were all human!
Moreover, these white bones are thicker than normal people.
Lin Yi quickly made a judgment in his mind.
These bones were not those of normal people, and they immediately arrived at the giant tribe.
Because he swam here while holding his breath, Lin Yi picked up a piece of bone and continued swimming forward, not to delay things.
About a minute later, Lin Yi saw a patch of darkness in front of him. He looked at it with a flashlight and was surprised to find that there was a cave entrance!
The lines and murals on the rock wall also extended towards the entrance of the cave.
Lin Yi was sure that the entrance to the cave was the place he was looking for!
Soon, Lin Yi reached the entrance of the cave and climbed up from the water.
The area of the cave entrance is still not very large, the height is less than one and a half meters, which is similar to the entrance of the cave when we came.
Breathing heavily, Lin Yi thought about the underwater situation and found that the underwater environment was not complicated.
If there is no water, you can find it from where you entered the water. There are not many obstacles and you can reach it on foot.
Lin Yi guessed that there might have been no water here before, but over the years, it has become like this.
I took a flashlight and looked forward. There was a deep passage in front of me, but about ten meters away, there was a turn. If I wanted to know what was inside, I had to go deeper.
Lin Yi was not in a hurry, but pulled the rope rhythmically to send signals to Ning Che and the others.
The four of them had a high tacit understanding. After Lin Yi pulled the rope, it didn't take long for a sound to come from the water.
After waiting for a while, he saw Ning Che sticking out of the water.
Lin Yi reached out and pulled her up, followed closely by Qiu Yuluo and Tao Cheng.
After the four people gathered together and wiped the water off their bodies, Lin Yi said:
"When you came here, you should have seen the bones under the water, right?"
"I didn't pay attention. When I saw you sending the signal, I swam over." Ning Che said.
"We both saw it." Qiu Yuluo said.
Lin Yi showed the bones he picked up from the water in front of the three of them.
"This is a leg bone. It is thicker than a normal person. Visually, it is at least 2.2 meters tall."
"Giants!" Ning Che suddenly said.
This statement was also agreed by Qiu Yuluo and Tao Cheng.
"When we came over, we saw a lot of bones under the water, not to mention dozens of people. But it is unlikely that anyone would set foot in this kind of place. It is very likely that they were the aboriginal people back then." Qiu Yuluo said.
"I think so too." Lin Yi said:
"But why these people died here is very interesting."
"Could it be because of the invasion?" Tao Cheng said:
"From the environment here, it should be a gathering place for dwarves, not suitable for giants to survive."
"You mean, the giants invaded the dwarves and finally died here." Ning Che said.
Lin Yi nodded and continued:
"There is also this possibility, but we have to go in and see what it is like."
As he said, Lin Yi stood up, and the others followed closely, aiming at the cave behind him.
Lin Yi took a flashlight and led three people into the cave, and everyone was cautious.
In such a place, you don't know when something weird will pop up.
Qiu Yuluo and Ning Che, holding their unusable mobile phones, kept taking pictures of the murals on the wall and recorded all the information.
Lin Yi walked slowly, step by step, and reached the intersection in front.
At the turning point in front, the front suddenly opened up and a huge cave appeared.
But the structure of the cave was completely different from what Lin Yi and the other four had imagined. It was not arc-shaped, but square, and at least three meters high.
And the walls were polished very smoothly, just like other ruins.
The rock walls were covered with dazzling words and pictures.
But in addition to these, in the center, there was a long stone table, and next to the table, there were a few ashes.
Lin Yi walked over to take a look, and touched it in his hand.
"It's ashes."
