Chapter 046 Dig first and then bury

I found that the grass I passed by along the way were all skulls under the small dirt on the ground, and my whole body was about to collapse.

This matter is too strange. This grass open space looks about the same size as the previous bug forest, and it is estimated that it can be the size of a football field. If there are all dead people buried in it, how many will it be!

The more I thought about it, the more scared I became, but I was still a little unwilling. I went to dig a few more earth bags with a dagger, which was completely certain. Under this grass, it was really all human bones.

I quickly ran back to everyone and saw Liang Zi asking me nervously with one foot, "How's it going? What's the new discovery?"

I came forward to hold him and said helplessly, "Don't mention it. It's really strange every year. We have met a lot. This open space is full of skeletons."

"Wray, this is too nonsense. Let's see if this scale is a mass pit!" Liang Zi looked around as he spoke, and his face was also incredible.

At this time, go to see the black-faced captain and Zhou Huan. These two are like addicted to digging dead bones, and continue to pick the skeletons out. Now there is already a large area exposed, all parts are scattered on the ground, and there are not many arrayed.

"Sister-in-law, stop playing, let's withdraw..." Liang Zi cried with a pleading face.

Zhou Huan is really a heroine. She didn't show any fear at all in the face of so many skeletons. She squatted on the ground and looked very puzzled. Hearing Liang Zi shouting, she shouted to me, "Don't stand there stupidly. Don't come to help."

I thought: Is there something wrong with these two people? What's wrong with this skeleton that can be dug out and sold for money? Even if someone takes it, we can't take it away!

I had no choice but to help Liangzi, untied his backpack and let Liangzi sit on it. I went to Zhou Huan and asked, "What do you want to do? Don't dig, go quickly!"

"It doesn't work yet. Dig for a while and leave after confirming."

"What are you sure about? You don't want to see if there are any acquaintances, do you?

Zhou Huan heard me talking nonsense again and said with an unhappy face, "If you want to help, do it. If you don't want to help, go away. I really don't know what's thinking in your heads?"

I know that what I just said is a little too much, but this woman is also unreasonable. Isn't it normal people's idea to dig desperately when they see skeletons?

I'm so angry that I don't bother to argue with her anymore. I want to care what they want to do, help dig out what they are looking for, and then leave as soon as possible.

I don't care so much. I inserted the dagger and reached out to pull out the weeds. I felt that the soil on it was not thick when these dead people were buried, and the grass roots were not very deep into the soil. They could be pulled out by shaking a few times, and there was a layer of human bones underneath.

With the excavation of a skeleton, I found a unified phenomenon. These bones should look like adults, because they are almost the same length, which means that these people died here for a certain purpose, ruling out the possibility of being slaughtered by the village.

The three of us didn't have time to rest and worked hard all afternoon. I looked behind me. It is estimated that there are more than 100 skeletons placed on the ground. Some are relatively complete, and some are damaged. If the open space of the whole grass is dug, the number I can't imagine it.

I really can't stand it. I feel that if I continue like this, I have to go crazy, so I went to Zhou Huan's side and pulled her up and asked, "Can you tell me what we are looking for? I have a goal so that I can't dig like this!"

I was so excited that I spoke loudly to her. Zhou Huan was stunned by what I said and sighed, "Well, we are looking for bullets."

Before I could react, I heard Liang Zi shout behind me, "Sister-in-law, we still have a lot of bullets, especially Qiu Ye. Let's not look for them. Let's go quickly. It's getting dark!"

Although I heard Liang Zi's words a little awkwardly, what he said was indeed true, so I asked Zhou Huan differently, "Be clear, what bullet are you looking for?"

"Let me tell you this, as long as you find a bullet different from our era, you can leave after confirming it." Zhou Huan said firmly.

I had a big head after listening to her. What a mess! Just as I was about to ask, I heard the black-faced captain not far away say, "Yes, I found it."

Zhou Huan immediately ran towards the black face, and I also followed closely. When I got closer, I found that the black face was holding a skull in both hands and looked at it carefully.

"How about it, can you be sure?" Zhou Huan asked the black face.

"It seems that the content of the information is basically correct. There was indeed a massacre here." As the black-faced captain answered, he reached out to point to a place of the skull.

I also rushed over to check and found that there was a bullet-like metal stuck in the bone on the back of the skeleton's head, revealing only a small part.

What's the situation? I was almost confused and asked Zhou Huan eagerly, "I'm really confused. Are these people killed by guns? Is this a massacre?"

"The massacre is possible, but not all of them were killed by guns, and they may have been poisoned. The purpose of looking for bullets is to determine whether our information is accurate."

Then Zhou Huan briefly told me: Before they came here, they had carefully studied this area. From the legend of the locals, it was estimated that during World War II, there was an army composed of many countries stationed in this mountain, and they seemed to be building or looking for something.

During that period, many middle-aged people in this area were captured or disappeared, and the abnormal number could be more than 2,000. After these people disappeared, they never came back.

I heard what Zhou Huan said became more and more mysterious, so I continued to ask, "Didn't we come to rob the tomb this time? Were these people captured to build ancient tombs? This is too ridiculous, and the era is not right!"

"On the contrary, they are not here to repair the tomb, but to dig the tomb."

"Dig the grave... Do you think I'm a fool? What kind of tomb needs so many people to dig! Well, even if what you said is true, the tomb will probably be dug up. Do we still need to go up the mountain?

"No, you're wrong. The army did not succeed in those years. I don't know what happened. In the end, they should all die here. We have collected a large amount of information in this regard in the United States. It turns out that there is no indication of the final whereof of this army, and the biggest possibility is that they all died here."

After listening to Zhou Huan's words, I felt that either she was talking nonsense or this woman was crazy. It doesn't matter whether her so-called information is true or not. Even if these guesses are correct, then thousands of people and troops did not succeed in those years. Aren't the four of us going to die?

After thinking for a long time, I still couldn't convince myself. The more I thought about it, the more I felt cold behind my back. What Huanhuan said was true. What happened in those years made so many people destroy the whole army...

Seeing that I was in a daze, Zhou Huan clapped the dirt on my hands and pushed me and said, "Let's go. It's getting dark. Let's leave here first and I'll talk to you later."

After saying that, she and the black face walked back. I foolishly followed behind and asked Zhou Huan, "We left like this. What about these bones?"

Zhou Huan was obviously asked by me, and inexplicably asked me what it meant?

I was particularly excited when I thought of the tragic massacre and said loudly, "No matter how these people died, they were buried quietly in the ground before, but we dug out these bones. Don't we care? Let them be exposed to the sun here.

"What do you want to do? Do you want to put these bones back in place?"

"There is no need to restore them to their original position. At least they should be buried, otherwise my conscience will be condemned and I will have nightmares for the rest of my life." The more I said it, the more excited I became and shouted loudly.

"If you are afraid of nightmares, you can stay and bury them. I don't have extra time to do these meaningless things. You are really not in good spirits."

"Hello, you'd better be. You are an inhuman tomb robber at all. If you want to go, I must clean up these bones..."

I vented my emotions on Zhou Huan and didn't pay attention to her any more. I immediately went to collect the bones exposed outside and put them together one by one.

At this time, I was no longer afraid. I directly picked up my bones and worked hard there. I thought that this woman was just a different profession and a good person. Now it seems that the grave robber she has been cultivated since childhood is absolutely different from us ordinary people and lacks too much human nature.

Although Liangzi had a foot injury, she still had the same idea as me. She didn't bother to leave this damn place quickly. She dragged a broken foot to help me, and she no longer paid attention to Zhou Huan and the black-faced captain.

I think it is impossible to recover all the bones, so I will prepare to collect them together, then bury them with soil, and cover them with some weeds to make them comfortable.

Zhou Huan and the black-faced captain did not leave. After looking at Liang Zi and me for a while, Zhou Huan actually came over and picked up a skeleton beside me and said to me, "It really makes you angry. You are sick and absent-minded."

I was also too lazy to take care of her and continued to work. When all the bones were collected, it was dark.

The four of us have small engineering shovels in their bags. I found them and dug the earth to cover them up, but the gaps between the bones are very large and difficult to cover them up.

Finally, Liangzi came up with a way. He asked the black-faced captain to mow the grass with a dagger, cover the grass on the skeleton first, and then cover the soil up. This method really worked.

When we were covered with sweat and covered all the bones, it turned into a super-large grave in front of us.

Liang Zi lit three cigarettes and inserted them on the ground, and said with words in his mouth, "Dear villagers, compatriots, there may be some foreign friends. Today, we have several passages here and accidentally disturbed your dreams. Here are three cigarettes. Don't forget to bless us to make a fortune..."

I heard a few words in front of him, but later it became more and more unreliable. Go and kick him and tell him to stop talking nonsense.

The four people officially bowed to the grave, and then packed up and prepared to leave. It was not until then that I found that the sense of direction had disappeared and the sky was completely dark.
