The man was wearing a brown leather coat, a cowboy hat, a red scarf hanging around his neck, and a pair of thick leather boots.
At this time, his body was leaning on the iron boat, one hand hanging down weakly, and his middle finger was still on the trigger of the revolver before he died.
I immediately understood that the bullet holes in the hull were his work!
"Master, there is someone here!"
I called out to Lao Jiang and boldly went over to check. It was a foreigner's face, with blond curly hair and skin as white as paper. His eyes were wide open, revealing the blood-red eyes. , the eyeballs were covered with red bloodshot eyes.
Especially his mouth opened, showing an extremely frightened expression.
It was as if at the last second before death, I saw the most terrifying thing in the world...
There was also a tooth mark bitten by a venomous snake on his left ankle. I immediately shouted: "Be careful, there may be snakes."
Lao Jiang picked up the engineering shovel and turned the body aside, and sure enough he found that there was another black and yellow one nestled under him, the whole thing coiled together.
Rattlesnake.
Lao Jiang slapped it down with a shovel almost without thinking, using at least 70%25 of his strength!
The rattlesnake was immediately smashed to pieces, a bloody mass that made me vomit.
After we were sure that there were no more venomous snakes around, Lao Jiang and I went to check on the deceased.
Without hesitation for a moment, I rolled up the deceased's sleeve first. Sure enough, there was a special cross tattoo carved on the other person's arm, which was the symbol of the ghost.
"These are Warner's people. They are really here." I looked at Lao Jiang and said firmly.
Lao Jiang's expression also became solemn. He did not speak, but continued to rummage through the dead body. Soon, we found some bullets in his backpack, and the bullets exactly matched the size of the bullet holes in the hull.
In addition, there are several tools for outdoor adventure.
Lao Jiang threw all these, together with the revolver, to Xiang Wanli: "Professor, hold this pistol for self-defense, and share the rest with the young people. Maybe it will come in handy next time. "
We were still rummaging around in the backpack, and at this moment, Lao Jiang's body suddenly froze, as if he had touched something unexpected.
Immediately afterwards, I was also shocked!
This gringo actually had a clay statue in his backpack, which was carved with a monster that looked like an eagle.
The eagle's wings were spread out, its claws were sharp, its eyes were fierce, and it held a lifelike little snake in its mouth. What came to its face was a murderous aura that hunted the world!
"This is Garuda among the Eight Heavenly Dragons." Lao Jiang took a deep breath and spoke slowly: "Legend has it that Garuda is a big roc bird in the Buddhist kingdom of Tianzhu. It is ferocious and vicious, and will surely retaliate. Even the Buddha dared to scratch him! What's even more terrifying is that he ate five hundred venomous snakes every day. Day after day, he actually ate all the snakes in India, which made the snake mother go to the Buddha to complain. "
"But the Buddha had nothing to do with Garuda. Of course Garuda did not end well in the end. Because it swallowed too many venomous snakes, all kinds of toxins accumulated in its stomach, and it was eventually poisoned to death."
"Garuda suddenly realized Buddhism after his death and was named a Dharma Protector to protect the safety of the sky in the Buddhist kingdom."
Looking at this murderous statue of Garuda, and thinking of the two rattlesnakes entangled here, I can't help but sigh: The arrangement of fate is so ingenious.
Garuda and poisonous snakes are naturally in conflict with each other, and both parties want to get along quickly, just like the relationship between a rooster and a centipede.
Therefore, this statue of Garuda attracted two nearby rattlesnakes.
What’s strange is, did Warner encounter any danger on the road? Otherwise, how could this subordinate suddenly get lost from the large army and carry such an important clay statue with him missing?
But for us, it was a treasure.
Lao Jiang threw the statue to me and told me to keep it well. Then he continued to pick at the deceased's body, and finally found a notebook in the middle of his clothes.
We immediately became excited!
I originally thought that this notebook would record the purpose of Warner's westward journey, or even worse, what they saw along the way. Unexpectedly, the entire notebook was empty.
The first few pages were torn out, not even a single English letter was left. Only a cross was drawn on the last page, and two sets of strange numbers were marked: "N40°26′12″, W93°53′50.8″"
"What is this?"
"Coordinates." Lao Jiang pointed to the string of numbers and told me: "N refers to north latitude, W refers to west longitude, and the following numbers refer to the specific location."
I scratched my ears, not quite understanding.
Lao Jiang murmured to himself: "Is there anything special about this place? Is it the entrance to the treasure? But why isn't it even marked?"
After Lao Jiang put away the notebook, I also stood up. Seeing the dead body, I couldn't help but said to myself and sighed: "It's a pity that this guy was bitten by a poisonous snake. Otherwise, if a Come on, we probably even know the color of Warner’s underwear.”
Lao Jiang's eyes only stayed on the deceased's ankle for a while, then he shouted: "No, he was not bitten to death by a poisonous snake!"
I thought I had heard wrong, so I looked at the wound again in disbelief. The tooth marks were clearly bites from poisonous snakes, and the area around the wound was black and blue, which was an obvious sign of poisoning.
Lao Jiang had to correct me every word: "No, he was bitten by a poisonous snake after he died."
After saying that, he started to demonstrate to me. Generally, for people bitten by venomous snakes, the venom will quickly flow up the blood and reach the heart, where it will be paralyzed.
During this period, his eyes, fingernails, and lips will turn blue.
But there is nothing on this body!
On the other hand, his wide-eyed look as if he wanted to scream but couldn't, was a sign of being frightened to death.
Don't tell me I don't believe this. Even Xiang Wanli who walked over was a little strange: "As the top mysterious organization in Europe, the most important thing for Ghost is masters! What's more, being selected by Warner to participate in the desert trip, He must have extremely rich combat experience, and he cannot be a timid guy."
"How could such a person who licks blood from a knife all day long be frightened to death? Mr. Jiang could be joking."
Lao Jiang's expression was more serious than ever before. He stretched out a hand towards Wan Li: "Here comes the knife!"
Xiang Wanli was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood and borrowed a suitable dagger from Dawu next to him.
After Lao Jiang took it, he blew on the dagger and then smiled: "It's quite sharp."
The next moment, while we were stunned, Lao Jiang peeled off the corpse's shirt, stabbed his abdomen with a knife and slid it upward, taking out his gallbladder and heart that had not yet decomposed.
The facts speak for themselves, his gall bladder was burst.
Green bile flowed all over his stomach, and even a small opening opened in his heart. He looked surprised at Wan Limu, so full that he couldn't believe it: "Actually, he was really scared to death... "
Then his expression completely changed, and a deep fear filled Professor Xiang Wanli's pupils from the inside out: "Then what did this man see before he died?"
What a terrifying existence it would be to be able to scare a well-trained killer to death.
We don’t dare to think about it, and we can’t even think about it!
When Lao Jiang stood up, his expression became extremely serious: "This person died no more than twelve hours ago. If he was really frightened to death by something terrifying, then this thing will never go far. It’s even somewhere invisible right now, staring at us, staring at us!”
This sentence suddenly made our already hot body feel like it fell into an ice cellar.
Diao Ye was the first to make a gesture: "Get on the camel as quickly as possible and hurry up!"
