Chapter 830 Skeleton

"Yes, what appeared in front of Zhuang Rui was a row of wooden houses, about 20 rooms, but when Zhuang Rui checked it carefully, he couldn't help but feel cold.

Even if it is far away, Zhuang Rui can see that these wooden houses have long been dilapidated. The terrain of his standing is relatively high, and it can be clearly seen that the roofs of many wooden houses are gone, and it is estimated that the possibility of some people is not very large.

"Is there anyone?" Zhuang Rui held the javelin tightly in his hand and walked 20 or 30 meters away from the wooden house. He shouted tentatively, and his voice trembled slightly.

Although it has entered the century, the indigenous people on this isolated island still retain the habit of eating people. Although the barbecue is delicious, it is not a wonderful thing to roast your own meat.

In a word, it's not a big mistake to be careful. Zhuang Rui plans to turn around and run away as soon as he sees those who have ghosts on their faces and bare buttocks.

It's just that Zhuang Rui doesn't think about it. His current situation is no different from the indigenous people in those movies. Except for the shoes changed from jeans, there is only a pair of briefs left.

And there are two holes in the top of the briefs, which must not last long.

At this time, Zhuang Rui's heart is both expectant and afraid. He hasn't seen anyone for more than a week. Even if he is an indigenous person, he can always make a sound, right?

However, after Zhuang Rui shouted, there was no imaginary situation. Zhuang Rui's shout did not have any echo except for the dust on the shaking wooden house.

What's more exaggerated is that a wooden house collapsed in the shout of Zhuang Rui, raising dust all over the sky.

"No one...*..."

Zhuang Rui has been sure that this is an abandoned village. Although he is a little disappointed, it also shows that human beings have lived on this isolated island.

Human beings who can build wooden houses must also have contact with modern civilization. Since they are not there, there are only two possibilities. One is to move to other parts of the island, and the other is to have left this isolated island.

No matter which possibility it is, it is good news for Zhuang Rui. If others can leave, of course they can leave.

Ship, Zhuang Rui can't build it, but as long as he can find tools here, cut down trees to build a canoe, Zhuang Rui is still somewhat sure.

Approaching a wooden house, Zhuang Rui reached out and pulled the door. He didn't use much strength, but the whole door was pulled down by him, and the door handle that Zhuang Rui pulled directly turned into wood and slipped from his fingers to the ground.

This situation made Zhuang Rui frown, and the wooden house actually became rotten like this. It will take at least two or three hundred years. Could it be... Hundreds of years ago, the people here have left?

Due to the power of wood decay, Zhuang Rui did not dare to enter the house, but walked around the village.

"It should not be built by indigenous people..." Zhuang Rui found that these wooden houses are all made of log willow nails. Its architectural style is very mature, a little like the style of Finland and North America. Although it is simple, it is extremely practical, and there is a circle of fence more than 20 meters outside the village. Traces of the column.

"Is this the pirate's nest?"

Zhuang Rui suddenly had such an idea in his heart, but it was eliminated by him.

Because according to Zhuang Rui's understanding of pirates through movies and books, these robbers across the ocean pay great attention to the old nest. They have always been easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is impossible to build the old nest in this flat place under the gentle slope.

Even in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, those pirates would build their nests like a castle, not so simple. If they meet the enemy, there is no place to run.

"Let's find out if there is anything you can use first..." Although Zhuang Rui has hundreds of millions of dollars outside, in this place, he is a real poor proletariat, and he has to use leaves to go to the toilet.

As long as it is something that can be used by human beings, in the eyes of Zhuang Rui now, it is all a treasure.

It's just that these old wooden houses can be listed as ancient protected buildings. Zhuang Rui dare not go in. Although the wood sorghum on it has also become rotten, it will still kill people if it hits the head.

After thinking about it, Zhuang Rui walked to the collapsed wooden houses. The roofs of these wooden houses should be covered with dried coconut leaves, but because of the age, they have already turned into ashes.

Zhuang Rui took the javelin in his hand and fiddled with it in a pile of wood. After lifting two broken sorghum, there was only a thick layer of rotten wood residue left on the ground.

"This is...*..."

Zhuang Rui suddenly jumped up an object with a javelin. This thing is oval, with a raised piece on it and raised back and forth, but it doesn't look like it's made of cloth, otherwise it can't be saved until now.

"Hat?"

A noun suddenly appeared in Zhuang Rui's mind. Isn't this the hat of the 16th and 17th centuries in the movie? It's exactly the same as the pirate with dark circles on his head.

Pick up the object with a javelin and take it in front of you. Sure enough... It's the top fur, which is covered with a thick layer of dust. In the words of antiques, it's a thick and old object.

Zhuang Rui shook with his hat. He couldn't see what kind of leather it was made of. He was very tough. After hundreds of years of ups and downs, he didn't deform much.

"This thing, buddy took it..."

Zhuang Rui took his hat and looked at his body. He simply put it on his head. Anyway, after getting up every morning, the salt can be rubbed out of the head of the chicken coop, and Zhuang Rui was not afraid of staining his hair.

"Well, what is this?" After putting his hat on his head, Zhuang Rui picked up in the wood with a javelin. Suddenly, a gray-white object appeared in front of him. Zhuang Rui quickly squatted down, picked up the wood chips with his hand, and picked up the object.

"Damn it, damn it, it's not so scary..." Zhuang Rui picked up the thing and found that it was actually a personal skull. When he picked it up, the two black eyes just looked at Zhuang Rui, and Zhuang Rui was so scared that he threw it out.

"Bang..." After the skull rolled on the ground a few times, a two-inch-long reptile crawled out of his eyes, as if Zhuang Rui, who had disturbed his sleep, was very dissatisfied.

"Those who don't know are not guilty, you have a lot, don't be surprised, don't be surprised.........*..."

Zhuang Rui bowed to the skull on the ground and said a few words in his mouth.

Just now, when he was looking at the eyes of the black hole, Zhuang Rui couldn't help but think of the cursed pirates in the Pirates of the Caribbean, and he couldn't help but feel a little creepy.

"He didn't wear this hat, did he?" Zhuang Rui touched the hat on his head and wanted to throw it away, but thinking that he was poor now, it was not easy to accumulate some money, so he still left it on his head.

After all, Zhuang Rui is also a person in the antique industry. Which of those precious antiques has not been played by countless dead people?

Coupled with the current status of a graduate student of archaeology, after the initial panic, Zhuang Rui has calmed down. He picked up the skull a few steps and held it in his hand.

To be precise, this should be only half a skull, because the mandible and pharynx are gone, leaving only three dark holes in the eyes and nose.

In archaeology, the history of human evolution is also an extremely important course. Archaeologists must master the bones unearthed from the tomb to determine the approximate age, gender and cause of death of the deceased.

Zhuang Rui naturally doesn't have this ability, but he also saw something. The owner of this skull before his death should not be a local, but a Westerner.

According to what Zhuang Rui learned from books, the indigenous sorghum is generally collapsed, and the upper edge of the orbit is bulging, but this skull is tall, and the upper edge of the orbit is flat, which is more in line with the physiological characteristics of Westerners.

Archaeology, like judgment, is a process of reasoning. Archaeologists have to judge what happened hundreds or even thousands of years ago based on physical objects. With this skull, Zhuang Rui can't help but fall into meditation.

Look at the color of this skull, it is already yellow in white. It should be a long time ago. Why did these Westerners come to this island hundreds of years ago? How did they leave?

Relatively speaking, Zhuang Rui is more concerned about the next problem. After Zhuang Rui's observation this week, the four sides of the island are surrounded by many reefs.

Not to mention the huge ship, it is an ordinary yacht. If you are not careful, it will hit the reef and sink. Zhuang Rui doesn't know why those people came here? How did you avoid the reef?

After standing there foolishly and meditating for a long time, Zhuang Rui shook his head. He could not infer anything from a dead skull alone, and there were no scars on the skull, and the cause of death could not be seen.

After putting the skull back to the ground respectfully, Zhuang Rui looked for it in the wood debris again, but this time the action was much lighter, almost according to the archaeological excavation. In order to uncover the mystery of this man's death, more physical evidence is needed.

Zhuang Rui's efforts were not in vain. After more than two hours of cleaning, a relatively complete corpse skeleton appeared in front of him.

Although the collapse of the wooden house caused some damage to the bones, Zhuang Rui still saw at a glance that this man was definitely an abnormal death and was murdered!

The reason is very simple, because there is a rusty iron sheet stuck in the ribs of the skeleton.

After Zhuang Rui and Huang Fuyun got to know each other, there was also more research on the weapons of the foreign cold weapons period. If Zhuang Rui is right, this should be a knight's sword from the 16th and 17th centuries.
