“Ah!” Pei Mianman cried out in alarm However, she i any attention to herself right now, especially in such a strange and unfarabbed Zu An’s arh he was her only source of warhed Even though this woman usually appeared bold and unflappable, in the end, she was still a young lady inside It was completely normal for her to feel fear when confronted by such a situation
Forget about her for a moment, even a man like him would be scared out of his wits If he was the only one here, his heart would be pounding like crazy
However, he had a young woman next to him, and a pretty one at that For some reason, he suddenly wasn’t so scared anymore
No wonder the companies of his previous world always ether on tasks Women could stieous, thus greatly increasing the efficiency of their work; the men would have similar effects on women
He cleared his throat and tried to comfort her “Don’t be scared, they’re just bones Whoever they belonged to died a long tihtly embarrassed by her current behavior “Hmph, I won’t be scared even if they were alive By the way, could this be an ancient battlefield?”
Zu An squatted down by a nearby skeleton He examined it for a while, then shook his head “I don’t believe it is I didn’t see any weapons along the way”
“Then could it be the field that the victors of the battle used for executions? This would explain why no weapons were left behind!” Pei Mianman said “There are rumors of an ancient DevilGod who h they had already surrendered That really was terrifying”
Zu An was stunned Was she talking about Bai Qi? He didn’t expect this world to have a legend like this![1]
He had always suspected that this world was linked to his previous world in countless ways However, the acaderaphy—if they were accurate—showed that this world should be er than Earth, which hy this couldn’t be Earth
He shook his head to dispel these thoughts, then replied, “I don’t think it’s that either They don’t look as though they meekly allowed theround They don’t see execution”
He had noticed this by carefully exa several skeletons earlier on
“Then were they buried alive? I noticed that you weren’t able to grab onto the walls earlier” Pei Mianers The surface was tough and had a slippery surface, as if it were coated in oil “This see back up”
“Buried alive?” Zu An had a strange look on his face “Isn’t there so? There’s no dirt here”
Pei Mianman’s face immediately turned red Only now did she realize that she said so foolish If they had been buried alive, these corpses would still be underground The reason they had fallen into this pit was because it was holloith only a thin layer of soil covering it
“Then what do you think is going on?” She said with a huff of annoyance, to cover up her own embarrassment
“I don’t kno they died, but I’ve noticed soe All of their heads are pointed in a certain direction” Zu An said, his face a serious mask
Stunned by his revelation, Pei Mianman rushed over to exa aer on what exactly it was Noith Zu An’s sudden reut was coh the skeletons were all in different postures, they possessed one common trait, which was that all of their heads were lowered, as if they were all looking at so beneath them
Zu An inspected these skeletons a littleThe neck bones of those who are hanged would snap backwards, and their heads should not be pointed doards like this There are other signs as well These skeletons don’t bear any significant dae, which proves that they weren’t killed by weapons Their bones didn’t turn black either, so it doesn’t look like they were poisoned”
Pei Mian hed “This place was strange to begin with It’s not a big deal, we don’t need to know the cause of death Let’s find a way out of this place first”
He walked over to the wall of the pit and looked around His voice, when he next spoke, was tinged with puzzle slope e first fell Why do these walls now look perfectly vertical?”
“This place is way too weird” Pei Mianman also remembered that they had tumbled down a slope with Zu An wrapped around her Now, the walls all seen of a slope at all
Zu An also had a bad sense of foreboding He cleared his head, then looked above him “This pit doesn’t seem to be that deep…” He muttered to himself
