Chapter 1159 Continue on the Road (Part 2)
Xu Changqing walked along this opened path and walked into the interior of an ancient building covered with giant trees.??
Just like the huge and incomplete building that was used as a base by the Germans, this ancient building also inherited the simple and rough architectural style of the Kuafu clan. The entire building is a dome building similar to a yurt. The interior space is very large and can accommodate almost four or five settlement villages and towns.
Although the entire building looks very simple, it is a semicircular building made of common wood in the wilderness, if you look closely from the inside, you can see that the building is not ordinary. Because the wood used to build this building is all fused into a whole by some secret method, and a large number of magic arrays are carved on the inner surface, which increases its solidity several times. This makes the building not collapsed or damaged when countless broken giant trees fall. Even because of the large number of broken giant trees outside as barriers, it has not been affected by the subsequent battle of the Nantianmen Giant City, and is still well preserved to this day.
Although it is amazing that the magic array that makes this ordinary building so strong is very great, Xu Changqing didn't care about it. After just taking a look, he continued to walk towards the temporary camp that the German exploration team had built before. The reason why he had such an attitude was not that he thought that his formation cultivation was already strong enough, and there was no need to absorb other magic arrays to fill in the defects, but because he was very sure that only the Kuafu clan could use the magic array to strengthen this building, and even if others could master the details of this array, they could not use it.
What this building was originally used for is no longer a matter of research, but judging from the different types of petrochemical forests in the building, it is estimated that this place is a breeding room specially used to cultivate different saplings.
The camp opened by the Germans was on a trapezoidal platform worth more than ten meters in the middle of the woods. Although it was a high platform, it was just compared to ordinary people. In the eyes of the Kuafu clan, the height of this platform was too average.
Originally, the fragments of civilization left over from this high platform have been plundered by the German exploration team, and even the reliefs used to decorate around the high platform have been rubbed. The platform at the top of the high platform has been cleaned up by the Germans, and ten large military tents have been installed. Half of these tents are used to provide rest for those explorers, and the other five tents are used to store various supplies to provide the needs of the exploration team.
From the archives, Xu Changqing knew that this temporary camp was an important team concentration place. Nearly half of the teams in the entire base used this place as the starting point and return site to explore the surrounding area radially. After each exploration team consumed supplies, they returned here to replenish supplies, rather than back to the base further away. During the peak period of this temporary camp, more than a dozen exploration teams were stationed here to rest and recuperate. In addition, there were more exploration teams to replenish supplies from here and search for the remains of the ruins.
Although the plan to explore the ruins was later stopped due to some policy adjustments of the base and the subsequent exploration tasks were handed over to the people in various settlements, the functions of this temporary camp were still preserved. After the materials here were exhausted, people in nearby settlements would send people to replenish the materials, so now Xu Changqing can also find a large amount of materials that the Germans had not used up before their death in the surrounding large tents.
Xu Changqing did not intend to spend time here for more time. He searched the tents and found the topographic maps specially drawn based on the information given by the various exploration teams. After remembering the surrounding terrain, identification location and other information drawn on the drawings, he turned around and walked down the platform from the other side, preparing to continue his itinerary.
However, after he left the platform more than ten meters, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at the tombstones composed of crosses not far away. It was roughly estimated that there were as many as fifteen.
It seems very common for tombstones to appear in this place. Although the Nantianmen Giant City is a ruin, there are no living creatures except the later Germans, so no one will attack them here, but the ruins of this giant city itself have some dangers. Due to various mistakes, there are no fewer members of the exploration team who died accidentally.
However, Xu Changqing clearly remembered that several death rules were mentioned in the base’s documents, one of which was that all Germans who died outside had to take their bodies back to the base for unified burial and were not allowed to be buried on their own.
Although this death rule will increase the burden on the exploration team to a certain extent, it can also increase the loyalty of the Germans in the base who will never go back. After all, no one wants to be thrown away by his companions on the roadside after his death like garbage.
However, there are now more than a dozen tombs that shouldn't have existed next to this temporary camp, and none of these dozen tombs were recorded in any of the base documents, so this situation is really abrupt and attracted Xu Changqing's attention.
Xu Changqing walked to the tomb and looked at the words on the tombstone of the cross. The content of these words was not the names and identities of the people buried underground, but the prayers of some Western churches. What's even more strange is that these words are not in German, but in English, and some detailed characteristics of the words are further explained that these words are American English.
After seeing these words, Xu Changqing frowned. Instead of using his divine thoughts to investigate the situation of the underground corpses, he turned to use his magic power to penetrate the underground.
Although he could not use any powerful and profound spells at this moment, it was still not difficult to cast small techniques like exploration spells. Moreover, because his body entered a perfect state, his control of mana also reached the extreme perfection, and the amount of information he received after exploration was not inferior to his own golden immortal's divine consciousness.
Putting aside some useless information, Xu Changqing quickly identified that the dozen or so corpses underground should be explored teams sent by a certain settlement. Their physical condition is no different from those who died at the base. Moreover, from the remaining expressions before death on their faces, they all died in their sleep.
After Xu Changqing realized this, a thought immediately broke out in his mind, saying: "Can someone enter this world again after an accident at that base and came to this temporary camp to bury all the people who should have died in the tent nearby."
After this idea appeared, Xu Changqing felt that his guess might be correct, so he prepared to return to the high platform to see if he could find more clues.
At this moment, his gaze suddenly fell in front of a cross tombstone not far away. There was nothing special there, only a few pieces of paper the size of a square. He walked up and picked up the paper and looked at it. It turned out that the small square piece of paper was a wrapping paper of some kind of candy.
Just as Xu Changqing was about to throw away the candy paper, his attention was on the candy brand pattern marked on the wrapping paper, and then his body stopped in place, and his whole body seemed to be in deep thought.
The reason why Xu Changqing reacted like this was entirely because he recognized that the trademark on this candy paper originated from a very famous candy manufacturer in the United States. The candy corresponding to this trademark is one of the best-selling products of this manufacturer. It is not only sold in the United States, but also in many European countries. Vera likes this candy very much. When he was in Milan, he often saw Vera put this kind of candy in his pocket, and the most important point is that this candy was produced five years ago.
The accident that caused the Germans in the ruins of this giant city to die suddenly was born after the end of World War II. The final time left on the archives was March 7, 51, 5. Although this date is not necessarily the final time, there may be some wrong judgments, the errors in it will definitely not extend the destruction time for more than ten years, so the time when this candy appears is definitely after the destruction of the Germans here.
But now, such a few candy papers have appeared here, and it is undoubtedly clear to Xu Changqing that someone had been here before he entered, and the graves in front of him were probably dug by someone before. And more importantly, this person or these people are very strong, because the land in this building has become a hundred times harder than the land outside for some reasons, and is no less than steel. Even if Xu Changqing wants to dig some holes on this land, it will take some means and strength.
Judging from the size of these tombs and the degree of damage to the surrounding ground, those who dig these tombs not only have strong power, but also have extremely detailed and sophisticated mastery of power. They are almost the same as those who enter the Taoist Taoist practices, and may even be at a high level.
"Can the ancient gods know?" Xu Changqing thought of an answer, and it may also be the only answer.
Then, he threw away the candy paper in his hand and surrounded the search circle around the trapezoidal platform. Soon some traces that were not covered were revealed.
These traces are mainly footprints, and the main footprints are in two directions. It is not difficult to see according to the trend of the footprints. One of them is the direction these people were walking when they came, and the other line of footprints was the direction they chose when they left. It is just a little confused that all the traces indicate that the visitor just passed by here, took a little rest, and did not return to this place afterwards. Therefore, these people must have other ways to distinguish the direction, and do not need to rely on the signs left by the Germans to determine their location.
Because of the dust on the ground, the footprints of both lines are very clear. Almost certainly, if you walk along these two lines of footprints, you will definitely find more clues about the people who entered before, and you can even find the place where they entered here.
