Chapter 54: Traces of Disappearance
At this time, Lin Nantian looked suspiciously at the distant woods, hoping that things would be as he thought.
Next, Fourth Master and the others finally followed the footprints and arrived at another low mountain.
Lin Nantian looked carefully at other places on this low mountain, but couldn't see anything except woods.
He climbed up the tree and found that there were many low mountains like this in this terrain. At the foot of the mountain was the so-called quagmire, and the quagmire was surrounded by strange trees.
"Young master, stop looking, we're leaving." Xiao Ma called Lin Nantian from below.
"Here we come." Lin Nantian quickly climbed down from the tree.
They continued to follow the footprints on the ground.
On the way, Lin Nantian looked at Heizi with a serious face and asked him puzzledly: "By the way, Heizi, how do you know that the shoe print is that of a woman?"
Heizi said slowly: "Actually, just look carefully at this footprint. Not only can this footprint reflect her presence, but it can also determine her gender based on the shoe pattern and size. More importantly, we can know the direction in which she came and where she went.
.”
"Can't a single footprint be so awesome?" Lin Nantian was extremely surprised.
"So that's how we judged it." Lin Nantian judged according to Heizi's statement and thinking, and it was really heart-wrenching.
The next step is for everyone to follow the footprints and move forward step by step.
The woods were dark at the moment. Except for their flashlights, there was no light in the woods. Lin Nantian looked at the sky above and it was also dark. Just now, because there were many water droplets falling from above, the air felt very fresh.
At this time, a breeze blew over, and everyone felt even better.
While walking, Lin Nantian lowered his head and looked at the footprints, one step at a time. Suddenly, the footprints in front of him made people break out in a cold sweat.
I saw that the lines and footprints in front suddenly disappeared.
Not to mention that the patterned footprints were gone, but what was strange was that they walked a few meters forward and found another very strange footprints in front of them, because these footprints were not the patterned footprints.
"What's going on? Her footprints are gone. Why are there other footprints here?" The guys started to wonder.
"This footprint seems to be the footprints of those mummies before." A clerk recognized it.
Lin Nantian looked carefully and saw that they were indeed the footprints of the mummies before. The footprints of the mummies were clearly visible because they were not wearing shoes.
He became puzzled and said: "Isn't it right? Why are there mummy footprints here again?"
"This is normal. The woman's destination is also the dragon's tomb, so she will naturally return to the place where the mummy walked." Mengzi looked at it and said.
"So, because she is familiar with this place, she took a shortcut before?" Lin Nantian finally understood.
"Then where are all her footprints?"
"Yeah! How strange?"
"Her footprints completely disappeared into thin air."
This made everyone say with doubts on their faces.
Heizi walked over, looked at it, and said slowly: "It rained in this place just now, and it was the rain that washed away all the footprints."
Now they describe the strange water droplets in this underground jungle as underground rain. But Lin Nantian thought that this name was more appropriate.
Lin Nantian looked over and saw that it had indeed rained on the ground.
"It's so strange. It rained just now, but why haven't the footprints here been washed away?" Lin Nantian became very strange.
"Young Master, haven't you noticed that in this underground ghost place of ours, it rains very frequently, and most of this place is quagmire. It is estimated that this water can form rain, and it is even more frequent and irregular above here.
It started to go down. Maybe the footprints of the mummy below were blocked by the branches, so the footprints remained."
A waiter who was standing next to him said at this moment. Lin Nantian took a look and saw that this person was the bearded man. The bearded man said very little. Lin Nantian didn't pay much attention to him.
However, listening to the bearded man talking at this moment, Lin Nantian always felt that he spoke like the frowning man, so long-winded and mysterious.
"What kind of pool can form rain?" Lin Nantian shook his head with an expression of confusion.
At this moment, a waiter shouted: "Yes, you see, there are no traces of the mummy's footprints in front."
"yes!"
"It was all washed away by the water."
"It's really a rain problem."
The guys all started talking.
"That's really what happened. The water really washed away the footprints in front of me." Lin Nantian looked at it and saw that there were no footprints on the ground there.
He murmured: "The footprints of the woman and the mummy are gone. So what should we do?"
Xiao Ma smiled and said: "If the direction is correct, we may still go forward and find some scattered footprints that have not been washed away."
Fourth Master nodded and said: "That's right, let's continue on our way."
Everyone then continued to move forward.
I don’t know how long I left. Suddenly a waiter shouted: “There are footprints here. We actually found them again.”
When everyone heard this, they walked over to take a look and saw some more footprints on the ground.
The footprints are a series, which shows that this place has not been washed away by underground rainwater.
"But there are still no traces of her footprints!" Lin Nantian looked at it and sighed.
Because the footprints at this moment were not left by humans, but the footprints of a mummy!
The Fourth Master looked at it, smiled, and said, "It's easy if there are footprints. It doesn't matter whose footprints we follow."
Mengzi nodded and said: "Yes! Anyway, this mummy came out of the tomb. If we follow the footprints, we can find the dragon tomb."
Lin Nantian looked at it puzzled and said: "But the strange thing is that there is only one mummy's footprints in this place, what about the other one? And what about the woman's footprints? Where did she go?"
Lin Nantian still sighed a little, as if he couldn't see the woman since he didn't see her footprints.
"That woman is very familiar with the environment here. She probably didn't take the same path as the mummy later." Heizi said at this moment, "Returning these two mummies, they probably didn't come out of the same ancient tomb exit, so these footprints
Not together either."
"I see." Lin Nantian finally understood.
Then, they followed the mummy's footprints and walked forward.
After a while, they discovered something.
"Fourth Master, these footprints came out of that hole." A man shouted and shined his flashlight forward.
Lin Nantian looked over there carefully, and he saw that the footprints of the mummy crawled out of the rock mouth.
"Is that the real entrance to the Dragon Tomb we are looking for?" The guys looked at it and fell into excitement.
The fourth master looked at it, nodded, and said slowly: "Yes, that should be the place where the mummy came out."
