Chapter 2735 Ash Relics
Before dawn, the stars in the sky dimmed, the whole world was dark, and Ye Xiaochuan also finished his night's work.
After daybreak, he called the fairies over, pointed to a small circle on the map that he had circled with charcoal, and said: "Through my stargazing last night..."
Fairy Liuyun immediately stretched out her head and said: "And I, I also helped a lot."
Ye Xiaochuan ignored her and continued: "I can confirm that our current approximate location should be in this area on the map."
The girls couldn't help but frowned when they looked at the small circle drawn by Ye Xiaochuan on the map.
Zuo Qiu said: "Although this circle is not big, the range is definitely more than three hundred miles in radius." Ye Xiaochuan said: "This is the limit of what I can do. If I want to be accurate to within thirty miles, I still do No. The main reason is that the map is too simple and difficult to locate accurately. I heard that Wudu Gate has a more detailed map of Dead Lake, such as
If we use their map, we may be able to reduce the range to within a hundred miles. "Fairy Liuyun said: "The diameter of the Death Zee is tens of thousands of miles. It only took you a few hours, and without any intervention, to be able to circle our approximate location just by stargazing. It is already very impressive. Last night I looked at the astrolabe
I'm so dizzy that I can't see anything, but you're much better than me! "
There is no detailed map yet, but the area circled by Ye Xiaochuan is still quite helpful to everyone now.
Everyone began to plan the route based on Ye Xiaochuan's position. With the general direction, it would be difficult for them to get lost in Neize. After the stars come out at night, Ye Xiaochuan can locate the position a few times and get a more detailed position.
If you can find one or two specific mountain names and place names marked on the map on the road, you can accurately determine the direction.
After a simple breakfast, the group started to set off.
At the same time, another group of people also started setting off. In the mountain forest less than a hundred miles away from the camp where Ye Xiaochuan and others camped last night, Princess Xiao Qi put away the Great Yong Cauldron, while the ghost girl stuffed some small pieces of wood into the storage bracelet. As for Black Water Xuan The roots brought by the snake are more than ten feet long.
A large piece of wood dozens of feet long was left here.
Zhou Wu is now the lowest status among this group of people. The toxins in his body have just been removed and his body is still very weak. He is being commanded by two little girls to do what he wants.
Zhou Wu didn't have any complaints.
After learning that the fat monk was the famous monk Hua, and that the ghost girl was the biological daughter of the evil god and the ghost fairy, he felt that his luck might be as outrageous as Ye Xiaochuan and others said.
Even though he is doing menial and backbreaking work now, other cultivators, including those big guys, would definitely be very envious of him if they saw this scene.
Not everyone has the opportunity to serve Monk Hua, and now Zhou Wu has this opportunity.
The Black Water Black Snake is not here. After eating and drinking last night, it left and I don't know where it went.
After packing up their things in the early morning, Monk Hua and the other four people left the campsite.
They had no intention of leaving Death Lake, but headed towards the inner center of Death Lake.
There is no other reason. I learned from Zhou Wu last night that this time Ye Xiaochuan, Yun Qiyou, and that girl Axiang all entered the Death Swamp, and Zhou Wu had been separated from them for less than two days.
According to Zhou Wu's guess, Ye Xiaochuan and the others would definitely go to the ruins of the ancient sacred tree in the center of Neize, so early in the morning before dawn, the ghost girl urged everyone to get on the road quickly.
At noon, Ye Xiaochuan and a group of people came to a large open space in the forest. This large open space was obviously not created by wild animals, but by humans.
The trees and weeds on the ground in a radius of several hundred feet have been cleared away. There are more than ten huge logs piled up on the north side of the clearing, and there is a huge ash ruin in the center of the clearing.
The group of people landed in the open space and looked around.
Fairy Liuyun walked to the ashes, looked at the green smoke that was constantly rising from the ashes, and said: "The inside is not completely burned yet. It seems that they just left not long ago, and it will definitely not be more than an hour."
Zuo Qiu said: "Isn't this pile of ashes a bit big? This is definitely not a bonfire. It seems like someone is burning a big tree here. The remaining huge logs over there are probably all left unburned."
Qin Lan said: "Using such a big piece of wood to light a fire, is it to warn? Or to ask for help? Like the beacon tower at the border?" Zuo Qiu said: "That's probably not the case. Those who can enter the inner lake are all masters of cultivation. There is no need to use beacon fire. Come and ask for help. Look at the areas that have been cleaned up. It’s not just a day or two. It looks like it’s been there for at least ten and a half months, or even
longer. "Fairy Liuyun said: "I agree with your statement. If he is asking for help, then this person must be seriously injured. But those big logs each weigh tens of thousands of kilograms. Since he can drag such heavy logs here and pile them up, he must not be injured.
, there is no need to ask for help. Xiaochuan, what do you think... Xiaochuan? what are you doing? "
Ye Xiaochuan did not participate in the Ashes discussion group. He was squatting next to Ashes, gesturing at a big pit with his hand.
Then he stood up again and walked to another big pit not far away.
After his observation, there were three large pits around the ashes of the fire, the same distance apart, surrounding the edge of the ashes. Each large pit is in the shape of a cylinder, eight feet in diameter and four feet deep.
Everyone walked to his side, Qin Lan said: "Mr. Ye, what are you doing studying these big pits? Did you find anything?"
Ye Xiaochuan stood up, shook his head gently, and said: "No, I just think the three big pits are a bit strange."
At this time, Ah Xiang's voice sounded from the woodpile in the north, saying: "There are many beast skins here!"
Everyone heard it and walked over, and indeed found at least four complete beast skins.
It is not accurate to say that they are beast skins. They should be called giant beast skins. They are all giant beasts similar to yaks. It is estimated that each beast skin was not less than two feet in size when it was alive.
Everyone spread out the beast skins and found that they were peeled off by people with sharp blades, and they were very complete.
In addition, many meat bones that were gnawed were found. There are both new and old ones. It is estimated that someone has lived here for a long time.
Ye Xiaochuan stroked his chin and muttered, "Big logs, beast skins, meat bones, three large pits arranged in an orderly manner and at the same distance, and mountains of burning ashes... Could it be... It must be..." At this moment, Ye Xiaochuan was overjoyed and said to himself, "It's really a piece of cake. No wonder I couldn't find you in Middle-earth. It turns out that you have been hiding in the Dead Swamp."
