"I go!"
Someone immediately volunteered.
So not long after, the "human figure" floating in the ghostly fog forest was drawn out with a tool.
It was a tattered doll.
After he fell to the ground, everyone gathered around him, just like looking at a diorama, to see what was so strange about him.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu stood closest to the doll.
"I didn't expect that there was a skeleton inside."
Although the clothes on the doll on the ground were torn into rags, the inside was not broken.
Under the firelight, Lin Mengya always felt that the skeleton inside seemed a bit reflective.
For a moment, her mind flashed through those perverted cases she had never seen before.
Could it be, really
Fortunately, she took back her thoughts in time.
"It's actually made of ceramic? Listen, the sound is quite crisp!"
Du Canjun squatted down and tapped the skeleton lightly with the dagger on his body.
The collision of metal and porcelain makes a particularly crisp sound.
Now, everyone is even more curious.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu also squatted down and studied it carefully.
The skeleton of the doll is basically made by imitating the human skeleton.
From the head, to the chest and abdomen, to the legs and feet, although it is not as precise as real human bones, if you look at it from a distance or at night, it does look like a human being.
Du Canjun has quick hands.
He grabbed one of the doll's arms, and with a little force, he took the arm off the joint.
Then, he discovered that those thin arms were actually hollow inside!
"The joints of each part seem to be able to move, huh? They are actually hollow."
You must know that in this way, the difficulty of firing will increase a lot.
The ancient tribe also has its own porcelain kiln.
The finished products of porcelain kilns are also famous for their exquisite modeling skills.
But he couldn't guarantee that he would be able to produce such a delicate skeleton.
Now that the danger has been eliminated, everyone gathered around the ceramic skeleton out of curiosity and marveled.
Lin Mengya checked it and found that in addition to the exquisite craftsmanship, this skeleton also had various small mechanisms on it.
They found some worn areas on the skeleton.
It must have been hung up with something like a very thin fishing line, so it caused such a mark.
But probably because of the age, some parts have been worn away and can no longer be used.
So it looks like a ghost that doesn't move much.
If it had just been put into use at that time, I think it should have been able to make more flexible movements.
"Are these the ghosts the Huo family and his son were talking about?"
In addition to this ceramic doll, other ghosts can be vaguely seen in the forest.
If not, it's just this guy who's pretending to be a ghost.
"Let's hook up two more and come back to see!"
Someone got interested and suggested.
"Just take another one. Let's put the others here first. Be careful not to be knocked down by the poison."
With Lin Mengya's permission, everyone became more proactive.
So, about a few minutes later, the second ceramic doll lay on the ground, but this doll looked more complete than the previous one.
Moreover, this doll actually has a face.
"Hey! This thing actually has a big red face?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, it's a good thing there are so many of us. If you see this suddenly in the middle of the night, even if it doesn't scare people to death, it will scare them away.
Half a life, right? "
"I read the rumors about hauntings before, and this is it!"
The completeness of this doll is higher than the previous one.
It's just that the color is only vaguely visible on the face.
They are now basically certain that only eight or nine of the "ghosts" in the Ghostly Mist Forest are this kind of thing.
"But we haven't seen this thing before we came in. Is it possible that it could appear out of nowhere in the middle of the night?"
Originally, everyone was no longer afraid.
But I couldn't help but shudder when I heard these words.
That's right, they had explored the outside before and couldn't find any place to hide this thing.
But the one in the middle of the night suddenly appeared. Is it possible that this thing really has some meaning
While everyone was speculating, Lin Mengya directly asked everyone to calm down.
"I'll go take a look inside the forest. You guys wait here."
Everyone blocked it.
But with just one word, she silenced everyone.
"Although you have the antidote, it cannot guarantee your own safety. I will come out as soon as I go in. There will be no danger."
Everyone choked.
Only then did I realize that this person who looked the weakest and had no martial arts background was the hidden boss.
The scene in the afternoon when she was able to drive away the poisonous insects with just one kick was still fresh in their memory.
"Okay. We will wait for you outside the forest. If you encounter any danger, just shout loudly."
Long Tianyu squeezed her hand.
It was a tacit understanding between the couple that he would wait for her outside.
Regardless of any danger, he would run in and save her as soon as possible.
"Well, don't worry."
Whether it was poisonous insects or poisonous mist, it was no big deal to her.
So, under the worried eyes of everyone, Lin Mengya stepped into the forest again.
The smell of ghost mist is really not good.
Although there was no strange smell, the strong scent of grass still made her want to cough.
The earth false dragons were not too panicked by her arrival.
Lin Mengya's blood poison can be controlled.
Now she has put away the blood poison and only carries some powder to repel poisonous insects with her.
The power of the medicinal powder was not too great, it just made the bugs feel uncomfortable, so they all made way for her.
Lin Mengya carefully walked to a place where figures were shaking.
In the mist, the light of the torches outside the forest was less obvious.
Even though she knew that the person outside was her husband, who was with her day and night, when she suddenly turned around, her heart beat a little faster.
Fortunately, she is quite courageous.
Otherwise, she could just send it off by herself.
The venom of the terrestrial dragon also has some hallucinogenic properties.
If a normal person ran in without knowing anything, he would probably have been poisoned by now, and it would be difficult to tell whether what he saw was real or fake, so if he was lucky enough to run out from here, he would probably be scared crazy.
Lin Mengya calmed down and continued walking forward.
Her eyesight was very good. Although it was somewhat hindered by the fog, she could still see clearly that a figure was slowly approaching in front of her.
She stood still and waited for a moment, then saw clearly that the figure should be another ceramic doll.
The ceramic doll made a slight collision sound. In addition, she also heard some small friction sounds.
She reached out her hand and felt around like a blind person.
Sure enough there is!
Something like a thread is hidden in the mist
inside, easily invisible.
And the "thread" is above her.
With her not-so-short stature, she could only reach it by standing on tiptoes.
Unless you are a giant like Yao Ming, it is probably beyond the reach of ordinary people.
This also explains why no one has discovered this thread.
When they entered the forest before, because they came on foot and everyone's attention was on their feet, no one would notice what was above them.
Another one, this line is amazingly thin.
She just pressed down a little, and felt a tingling sensation on the belly of her finger.
She was so frightened that she immediately took it back.
Fortunately, it was not scratched.
But a super-fine red trace can also be seen.
This shows that although the silk thread is thin, it is very tough.
She had heard some news before, saying that tough fishing lines, kite strings, etc. could be used as weapons, and could even cut off heads in one go.
She had seen such a weapon before, so she was not very surprised by it.
But the "thinness" of the thread was beyond her imagination.
If it weren't for this texture, I probably wouldn't be able to hold up those ceramic dolls.
She took out a piece of lambskin from her small bag.
This is specially used for wiping her own silver needles or knives. It is very tough and cannot be scratched by ordinary knives.
Wrapping it around the palm of his hand, he found the thread again.
Lin Mengya followed the direction of the thread until it reached the end.
It was a dead tree at that time.
It looks no different from the surrounding dead trees.
She squinted her eyes and looked around carefully.
Then he stretched out his hand and flicked the tree trunk.
really!
The tree is fake!
The outermost layer of bark is flexible, like some kind of tanned leather.
And just from the appearance, you can’t tell it’s fake at all.
She took a knife for self-defense.
You know, nothing she uses on her hands is bad.
This knife looks small, but it is actually expensive to make, can break hair with blowing, and is extremely sharp.
Even some metals cannot resist this knife.
But when she scratched hard on the bark of the tree, she didn't even leave a mark!
She continued paddling without belief, but unfortunately, even though she was exhausted and panting, she still could not cut through the seemingly ordinary fake tree bark.
Lin Mengya's eyes shone.
What kind of good baby is this
If they had this thing in hand, wouldn't they be able to make invulnerable leather armor
However, she quickly gave up this idea temporarily.
Because she discovered that the fake tree bark was actually sewn on with extremely fine silk thread.
What kind of needle does this have to be to break through such strong skin!
6!
It's because she overestimates her abilities and is ignorant.
It turns out she doesn’t deserve it!
Fortunately, she was only discouraged for a while.
Then, she thought about it and took out something else from her bag.
This is a color powder she uses to disguise herself.
It can be used as makeup by adding some water and oil, or it can be used to dye hair.
This color powder is also quite strong.
As long as you peel it off, if you don't use special potion to wash it, it won't discolor even if you soak it in water.
She poured some of the toner out and mixed it with some oil.
