Although there were still relatively clean gravel at the feet of the three of them, the black water that had always been accumulated in the moat was unpleasant and smelly.
Upon Chongyang's reminder, something showed a corner on the black water not far away, "This is..." I took a closer look. After all, the white light on the dome is not the sun, plus the light from the moat itself. Poor, you can't even see what that horn is protruding abruptly from the surface of the water.
"There is still ahead." Chongyang pointed to the front. After walking a short distance, sure enough, dense...white bones appeared on the surface of the water!
Not only on the water, but also on the beach in front of us, there are all densely packed bones.
Obviously, they are all human remains.
Gu Tang was the first to walk over and squatted down to take a look, "This should be the bones of the Song Dynasty army, wearing armor." As he picked up a rotten machete, wiped off the mud on it, "There are words on it, but Can't see clearly."
I leaned over and took a look. It seems that the ancient Chinese characters are correct. It seems that these are the remains of the Song army. This is the place where the Song army built the floating bridge to attack the city. Many soldiers died on the floating bridge.
"From the murals, Song Jun finally left the Qing Clan underground palace calmly, why didn't they take their remains?" The Han people paid the most attention to entering the soil for security, and the leaves returned to their roots, and they would not abandon the remains of the same robe unless forced to do so.
"There should be a lot of river water in the moat at that time."
"They can dive."
"There is another possibility..." Chongyang said, "Song Jun was afraid of what was in the river at that time."
"Something? What is it?"
"The moat that really played a role in city defense in ancient times would breed creatures with offensive capabilities in the river."
It is really possible after Chongyang said that, "Then we are not in danger now?" I looked around vigilantly, and the gray-black rock was enveloped by pale light, revealing the vicissitudes of life.
"It's not good. Generally speaking, large aquatic animals are raised. After so many years, the moat has almost dried up. Even if there is, it should be dead."
"Well, no one feeds them, and they starve to death." I nodded in agreement.
The three of them continued to advance among the piles of bones. Numerous fragments of bones were lying quietly in the mud. Occasionally they saw a broken skull. Two hollow eyes stared at the upper part. When they were dying, they thought the most. Yes, it should be their family.
"Here." Chongyang pointed to the opposite river wall.
There is a hole less than one meter in diameter, which should be the outlet of the drainage system of the underground palace of the Jing clan.
"Come on."
I took the lead, and I was about to wade through the stagnant water at the bottom of the river. Chongyang pulled me back and said, "You can't pass this way."
"What?" What's wrong.
Chongyang squatted in front of a silt pit, picked up a remnant bone, it should be a thigh bone, "Look at this..."
I knew it was wrong, so I hurried over to look at it, and couldn't help but take a breath, and the goose bumps all over my body instantly exploded.
The bones are covered with dense cavities the size of needles. For some people, it’s not a big deal, but such a scene will definitely have a considerable impact when placed in front of a person with intensive phobia.
I stepped on the bones with a single foot to get a sigh of relief, and it took a long time to relieve my madness. (End of this chapter)
