Chapter 116: Civilization X Greed X Death
Life is always synonymous with the Yamalo forest. Here, wherever the eyes see, danger may lurk, even if it is just a small bug, it can kill people.
The light red ground seems to have been watered by blood. When your feet step on it, they will leave shallow footprints.
The vine leaves and branches and dead leaves cover the ground, leaving not much space, and also provides a place to hide for more creatures.
There are towering trees around, and dense branches and leaves are intertwined above the head to create an airtight ceiling, making it impossible to judge the approximate height of the trees.
Here, except for the river that runs through the dense forest, which shows turbid yellow, the green is everywhere you look, and there are basically no colorful flowers.
Walking in such an environment, people's sense of time and space will become unconsciously erratic. No matter how long they walk, the surrounding scenery will still bring a sense of déjà vu.
As soon as I walked into the Yamalo forest, the most common plant was the arrow bamboo tree, which is also the main material for building the Yama Village.
The trunk of the arrow bamboo tree is relatively thin, one or two times larger than ordinary bamboos, but the canopy is unusually lush, giving people the illusion that it can cover the sky and the sun.
The group of three people walked into the dense forest, and the Golden City mentioned casually from Dongba became the topic of this time.
"In ancient times, a powerful empire was born in the Yamalo Jungle. That empire used the inexhaustible gold from the Yamalo Jungle to build a capital city. Whether it is a palace or a temple, it was built with a large amount of gold."
"The more convincing thing than the legend of Golden City is Golden Lake. After all, there has never been any news about the ruins of Golden City, but there is indeed a lake in the jungle of Yamalo."
Dongba Dyi was holding the dead fish's eyes and walking in the forest like a tour guide, explaining the legend of the Golden City.
Use some attractive stories to reduce the vigilance of the two of them, and then slowly bring them into the trap.
This is Dongba’s plan, but the legends about Golden City and Golden Lake are not random stories, but real ones.
Every year, many people come to the Yamalo Jungle from all over the world, just for legend, but what most people appreciate is the terrible aspects of the Yamalo Jungle.
Countless hunters lurking in the darkness regard the humans who entered the territory as hunting targets, like a bloody mouth that was opened to the extreme, swallowing countless outsiders.
Luo and Bhala each held a piece of jerky meat, chewing and listening to Dongba's explanation, like tourists who were attending a tour group.
"Then what?"
Luo chewed the jerky that tasted good and urged Dongba to continue talking.
Dongba is like a qualified tour guide who is good at talking and continues: "Golden City implements a monarchy. According to legend, during the coronation ceremony of taking over the throne, the heirs of the throne will be naked and coated with gold powder on their bodies, and then walk into the lake to swim away the gold powder."
"In this process, subjects will throw all kinds of gold jewelry into the lake to show their recognition and surrender to the heirs of the throne."
"This is the origin of the Golden Lake. By the way, these are all legends. So far, no one has found a large amount of gold in the jungle of Yamalo."
As Dongba spoke, he quietly observed the surrounding environment. This is the main area of the Arrow Bamboo Tree and a place where land-based spider crabs are more common. You must first find the spider crabs...
"If you say so, how did you decide that the woman just came to the Golden City?" Luo swallowed the jerky meat and looked at Dongba with a smile.
Dongba stretched out his index finger and replied calmly: "Although no one has found a lot of gold, many people have found some well-crafted gold jewelry in the only lake in Yamalo."
"Oh?" Luo was quite surprised. If this is true, it would be a powerful proof. However, when Sambika searched the Yamalo forest, he did not see any information about the Golden City, but he did not know whether it was true or false.
Perhaps, in this vast dense forest, there was really an ancient civilization that had once been brilliant, even if it was just a flash in the pan in a long history...
If there is really a Golden City, then there may be many ancient relics that have been settled in the ruins without seeing the sun.
"The gold jewelry found is like telling people that there is indeed a golden city here, so there are many people who are not afraid of death. Every year, many people want to come to the Yamalo Jungle to try their luck."
"Of course, these people's fate is not very good, and no matter how many people die in the Yamalo jungle, you will never see the corpse, because..." Dongba showed a dangerous smile, as if he was scaring the children with a ghost story, and said: "Here, there will be no bone left."
But Buhala scratched his cheek and said seriously: "Even bones are not left, it seems that there will definitely be ferocious dogs here."
"Mr. Dongba knows a lot." Luo looked surprised, patted his palm gently, and gave applause from friendship.
"ha…"
Dongba's face twitched slightly and explained, "I have a habit of doing my homework in advance no matter where I go, so be prepared for any trouble."
"Good habit." Luo gave Dongba a thumbs up.
Dongba smiled. At this moment, he suddenly stopped while covering his stomach and made a series of grunts.
Bhala said in confusion: "Are you hungry?"
"That's more like a diarrhea." Luo said helplessly.
"Oh." Bhala suddenly realized.
"That..." Dongba covered her stomach and squatted, with a slight look of pain on her face, and said, "I'll go and make it easier. You two go ahead and wait for me."
"no problem."
Luo Shen glanced at Dongba and took Buhala to the front, preparing to wait for Dongba to solve the inventory in his stomach.
Rona turned around and left, making Dongba's heart beat slightly, but when he saw the two of them walking forward, he immediately smiled sinisterly, quickly got up and retreated for a distance, walked into a low bush, pretending to get rid of his hands.
He walked along the way, but was looking for the Land Spider Crab. Just now, he finally found one, so he pretended to have diarrhea and asked Luo and Bhala to go ahead first.
"Good luck to you." Dongba looked at the backs of Luo and Buhala silently.
Arrow bamboo trees are everywhere here, and there are many different big trees. Their common feature is that their crowns are dense, covering most of the light sources.
After Luo and Bhala walked side by side for dozens of meters, the surrounding bamboo trees moved without warning. Under the gaze of the two, four or five trunks rose from the soil and lifted into the air, revealing their sharp bottom.
Are land-mounted spider crabs disguised as bamboo forests...?
Looking at four or five hanging in the air, like arrows ready to go, Luo looked calm and smiled, "Bhala, do you want to eat crabs?"
Buhala also looked at the four or five hanging arrow bamboos, and nodded when he heard this.
"Then stand beside me and do nothing," Luo said.
Buhala was stunned and simply replied: "Okay."
Before he finished speaking, the hanging arrow bamboo suddenly stabbed towards Luo and Buhala from different directions.
In this case, Bhala really did nothing and stood next to Luo.
Dongba, hiding behind the bushes, watched the scene safely and was ready to escape.
The next second, Dongba's calm face suddenly changed and turned into an incredible expression.
He saw... the legs of the Land Spider Crab that could easily string people together were easily caught by Luo with both hands.
