Holy Bone

Chapter 454: The Ear Circumcision Ceremony of the Wuer Family in the Desert Country
This ear of the desert seems to be really a bottomless pit.

Holding torches in their hands, the two descended a thousand meters in the dark environment, but still did not see the bottom.

Jin'an should be thankful that neither he nor Mr. Yiyun suffer from claustrophobia, and they are extremely courageous, otherwise few people would dare to walk alone in such a deep environment.

Mr. Yiyun: "The terrain here is steep. It is a huge project to carve out the stone ladder road on such a steep cliff. It must have taken several generations of people to trim these stone ladders. Many slaves who built the stone ladder died, and it is not an exaggeration to say that we are advancing by stepping on thousands of bones..."

"It looks like a bottomless pit here, but I don't know if the end of the stone ladder road can really lead to the bottom of the cave?"

In fact, the voices of the two of them along the way were not loud.

The environment here is claustrophobic and quiet, and the slightest voice can echo far away.

Jin'an: "Didn't those veterans say that they could hear the sound of the entire desert and the will of the gods in the ears of the gods? Why did we go deep for so long and didn't hear anything, but it was surprisingly quiet."

Speaking of this, he smiled freely: "It seems that this is just a legend after all. There is no such miraculous thing in this world."

While walking and talking, Jin An was careless for a while, stepped on the air and almost fell into the bottomless abyss. The stone under his feet fell into the tiankeng for a long time without hearing the sound of landing. There was a dead end in front of him, and the stone ladder came to an end here. .

Jin'an stood by the stone ladder and looked at the bottom of the dark pit. He had a feeling that they probably didn't even finish one-tenth of the road in the desert ear tiankeng. The pit and the surrounding darkness gave him a feeling An uncomfortable feeling of oppression in the heart.

Mr. Yiyun: "It seems that the efforts of several generations of the Wu'er family have come to an end. Until the Wu'er family's demise, they have not found out how deep this hole is."

Jin An shrugged: "Perhaps there really is a god. When mortals are limited in power, they can't even see a ten-thousandth of the true face of a god."

People walked in the tiankeng without noticing the specific passage of time. When Master Yan, Ai Yimaimati and others also went down into the tiankeng and found them, they knew that it was already dark outside.

When everyone returned to the ground, the frizzy people could not wait to find those veterans and ask what happened to the ear of the gods. We are so close to the gods, why didn't we hear anything?Doesn't it mean that it is the closest to the gods, and you can hear the will from the gods? There is only a broken road that looks normal.

Perhaps it was because some veterans who stayed at the Ear of the Desert were kidnapped, which made Pasha and the veterans feel very bad. He sat in front of the firepit and stretched out his hands to keep warm, and replied without raising his head: "That's just a desert. There is a legend circulating on the Internet, if you do the ear-cutting ceremony like Wu Ershi, and then put your ear against the god's ear to listen, maybe you will be able to hear the sound you want to hear."

"You don't even have your ears, so you can still hear the sound of farts! Those people from Wuershi are ignorant and stupid. You think I will be as stupid as them. Whoever cuts off their ears without a problem! I think you, an old man, are uneasy and kind. , clearly wanting to harm us!"

The person who quarreled with old man Pasha is from Mr. Yan's side.

Speaking of the ear-cutting ceremony, Jin An thought of the person who fell from the sky and had his ears cut off in a big sandstorm a few days ago... Could it be that someone cut off their ears by themselves, or were they forced to cut off their ears? Trying to hear the voice of God?
At this moment, Jin An also noticed that this person suddenly got angry with those veterans, but he actually got a hint from Mr. Yan.

What happened next was indeed guessed by Jin An.

Some people sang bad faces while others sang red faces. Seeing his subordinates arguing with the veterans, Mr. Yan immediately came forward and scolded: "What are you arguing about? I am ashamed of myself. Think about who led us to survive in the desert, and who led us to find the Wuershi ruins."

After Master Yan finished scolding his subordinates, he saluted and apologized to the veterans.

Seeing that the timing is almost here, Yan Kuan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Old man, you have really told us all about the ear of the gods. Are you sure there is nothing missing? Do you want to think about it again?"

Old man Pasha: "Master Yan, we did not hide from you."

"For the sake of Mr. Yan speaking on behalf of our brothers, I also sincerely advise that we stand in the ears of the gods, be cautious in our words and deeds, and never talk about the gods. The ancestors left the ancestors, be careful in this desert. Walls have ears, and misfortune comes out of the mouth."

Seeing Mr. Yan who was singing red-faced, Jin An didn't come forward to expose it. He, Mr. Yiyun and Qi Bo concentrated on feeding the camels.

Next, other people also started to tidy up the shed and feed the camels by the way. After all the busy work was done, everyone gathered around the firepit in the shed to prepare dinner for today.

Although there is a ready-made iron pot here, the half-cooked meat in the iron pot has been stored for several days, so everyone finally used the accompanying iron pot that they brought into the desert.

However, those who had eaten the camel meat from Xiaoshizhuang lost their appetites, and after a few days, their spirits became more lethargic, and they all became hungry and thin for several times.

In fact, in the first few days, they could barely eat a few mouthfuls of jerky and naan bread, but as time went by, these people could hardly swallow even these things, and they would feel nauseous soon after eating them Spit it out.

It seems that after eating that kind of incomparably fragrant meat, they will change their eating habits. Ordinary food will become disgusting and unpalatable in their mouths. , I resisted eating and always vomited it out.

vomit!
Another person forced himself to eat jerky because of hunger, but just swallowed it with difficulty and immediately vomited it out in pain. His stomach was so uncomfortable that he almost vomited out bile.

"It's the old man Jiufeng. If he hadn't burned down Xiaoshizhuang, we wouldn't have caused everyone to suffer like this!" The fat old man Xikelti cursed angrily.

Yan Kuan glanced at the people on his side who also vomited after eating. While tearing up the hot naan with his hands, he said casually: "Why did the people who ate those camel meat in Xiaoshi Village before all become so sick?" It looks like a ghost or a ghost."

Lord Yan didn't look at the veterans when he spoke, and he seemed to be casually saying something, but the atmosphere in the field immediately became tense, and everyone else looked at the veterans with unkind eyes.

The fat old man Xikelti had a big belly and said with a harmless smile: "Didn't our brothers explain on the way that the camel meat we made with a unique spice in the desert is very fragrant, almost It is normal for a guest to have some difficulty accepting ordinary food after eating fragrant meat. If the Xiaoshizhuang was not burned suddenly and did not bring much when he ran out, we would like to share the spices with you.”

This explanation is far-fetched.

But it is true that there is not enough evidence to prove that there is something wrong with the camel meat.

This matter was finally exposed hastily.

Only Jin'an, Mr. Yiyun, and Qi Bo knew that the so-called spices were actually a kind of dead meat. These veterans kept doing tricks behind their backs and concealed many things.

After eating and drinking enough, everyone began to assign night watchmen. The group of people from the Western Regions, Yan Kuan, and Jin'an each assigned a few people to be responsible for the night watch.

On Jin'an's side, Jin'an stayed in the middle of the night.

Chipper was in charge of the second half of the night.
