The cave is deep and large, and the light coming in through the hole as big as an egg yolk is not enough to illuminate the entire cave.
It is very similar to the effect of a stage spotlight. The fine dust in the light and shadow is slightly raised and hits the center of the raised bowl directly.
It seems like something is roasting.
"This... makes people feel too uncomfortable!"
Yue Weimo felt uneasy and quickly dodged to Jiang Ying's side. She looked around warily, feeling a little suspicious. "Sister Jiang, please have them shine their flashlights everywhere. I feel like there's something sinister in those dark shadows!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ying and Yan Zhuo looked at each other.
Both of them knew that Yue Weimo had some peculiarities, especially Jiang Ying, who had been almost frank with Yue Weimo in the carriage on the way here. Therefore, his expression gradually became solemn, and he did not take what the little girl said lightly.
Yan Zhuo spoke in a deep voice, passing his flashlight to one of the Demon Guards, "Kunan, you two go together, one on each side, and illuminate all the dark and unclear areas. Be careful of anything strange."
In fact, the crisscrossing red grooves and stone platforms on the ground are strange enough!
I feel like this is not a place for people to stay!
Kunan naturally had the same feeling, so subconsciously, he shone the light into the gully on the ground.
I didn't pay attention just now and thought it was some kind of paint. Now after seeing clearly what those reddish-brown things are, everyone couldn't help but take a step back with a changed face!
The little brother Mo Jiwei, who was holding the flashlight, was almost frightened to death. "This... blood! It's all blood! So much blood!"
The others reacted immediately, staggering and trying not to step into the bloody grooves.
But the ground is so densely packed, like the winding routes on a map, that there is no way to avoid them.
Kunan gritted his teeth, squatted down, dipped his finger in a little dried blood, sniffed it, and said with a sigh of relief, "Don't be afraid, everyone. This is not human blood."
In other words, it is not all human blood, most of it is from various animals.
In order not to scare the two girls, Kunan chose to beautify it in a benevolent way. When Yang Yan and Yan Zhuo looked at each other, the master and servant had a tacit understanding.
Yan Zhuo increasingly showed an attitude of protecting Jiang Ying.
Upon hearing this, Yue Weimo's expression brightened considerably. No matter how powerful she would become in the future, she was still only a twelve-year-old. It was her first time seeing such a scene, so it was normal to be afraid.
Compared to Yue Weimo, Jiang Ying was relatively calm.
As a doctor, I have seen many bloody scenes and naturally I am immune to them.
But the area nearby was already quite unexpected. For a moment, everyone was silent. Some were looking at each other worriedly, while others were staring blankly at the end where the gullies converged - the raised sea bowl in the center of the cave.
All kinds of speculations were running through my mind.
Finally, Yue Weimo started chattering, her voice trembling, "That...that bowl, isn't it used to hold blood?"
"It's so big, how much blood can it hold?" Mo Jiwei's younger brother also exclaimed in shock.
Everyone was surprised by the stone bowl that was as big as half a room. If it really contained blood, how much blood would it contain?
Even if it was just animal blood, it was too unbelievable!
Kunan frowned. He had interrogated the father and son of the Cao family and knew very well that Yue Weimo's guess was correct.
He had heard it incredulous at the time, and had even questioned whether Cao Shun was exaggerating. But now, seeing it with his own eyes, he finally believed Cao Shun's words about sending dozens of cattle and sheep to the mountains every month and not letting go of any wild animals he encountered.
Such a large bowl can easily hold the blood of several large wine jars!
After careful observation, Kunan soon figured out the key to the disappearance of so many animal bones.
water!
Next to it is both hot spring water and running water.
After the person behind the scenes drained the blood from the animal, he threw the bones into the hot spring river, and the turbulent water washed the bones downstream.
The reason why the water is not blocked is definitely because this area of water is large enough, and this type of mountain hot springs, when gathered in a certain place, the temperature will be very high, like boiling water, which can easily cook and remove the bones of animals, and then be eaten by fish and shrimp in the water, and eventually there will be nothing left.
But, what on earth do they want to do with such a large-scale blood evil formation?!
When Kunan was angry and speechless, Yan Zhuo grabbed the hand of the little brother Mo Jiwei and slammed it to the bottom of the sea bowl.
At this moment, almost everyone was in front of the bowl.
In order to facilitate blood storage, there are stairs around the bowl to climb up the edge of the bowl. Driven by curiosity, the group of people climbed up and stared at the bottom of the bowl.
Suddenly, a strong light shone, and everyone couldn't see anything clearly. They only saw a dark patch. Then, a thick layer of black skin or something at the bottom of the bowl began to move creepily. Everyone swarmed out and fled in all directions, very afraid of the light!
With the sudden change, no one knew what danger there was. Yan Zhuo subconsciously grabbed Jiang Ying's waist and used light skills to retreat downwards. At the same time, he kicked Yue Weimo, causing her to fall into the arms of a Mo Ji guard.
The other party reacted quickly and realized that Yan Zhuorang wanted him to be protected, so he quickly brought his men back to the ground.
Kunan's reaction was a little slow, but it didn't affect anything. On the contrary, because his flashlight shone directly on the edge of the bowl, everyone finally saw clearly what that nest of dark and crawling things was!
Cockroach! Big cockroach!
Each one is as big as two fingers, almost as big as a mouse!
Dark creatures are afraid of light. They must have regarded the sea bowl as their nest, and were frightened away by the intrusion of these uninvited guests. However, they did not scare everyone to death.
The big cockroach fled in panic at a speed that was hard to keep up with, let alone catch. However, there was someone in the Mo Ji Guard who was quick and brave enough to catch one in no time and wanted to show it to Yan Zhuo.
