Chapter 780
As the flesh and blood were dissected, the scene inside the toad was finally presented to everyone.
A few bloody bones were quietly placed in the dirty liquid, and some team members counted them carefully and found that these were the bones of several people.
Horii wears a mask and gloves on his hands, and he can roughly distinguish between men and women by picking out the bones into several parts.
I crouched down in front of me and looked at the bloody bones in front of me, as if I could see the horrific picture.
In addition to his anger, the pity in his heart also vanished, and for whatever reason, the evil deeds committed by Mrs. Takeshita could only be repaid by death.
"The remains of a woman and five men, a total of six people, are exactly the same as the missing people. Horii counted the corpses with a solemn face, and it was almost certain that the people who had been swallowed by the toad were missing.
"The stomach of the toad has a strong corrosive substance, and the cause of death of these people is to dissolve it alive. At this time, a team member said with a complicated expression.
"Damn the brute, if only I had found it earlier!" Horii clenched his fists in resentment, this kind of death was unacceptable anyway.
"It's a pity it died too cheaply. "
That's right!" everyone
was indignant, but I Dream was silent, analyzing the connection between the toad and the demon god.
After being reminded by the old man, he was able to know that Lady Takeshita was under the control of the demon god, and it was obvious that the demon god could not manipulate the slave to do some meaningless things, and this toad was probably some kind of medium.
Thinking of this, I dreamed of a flash of inspiration in my mind, and turned my head to look at Horii: "Brother Horii, is there a way to drain the water here."
Horii listened thoughtfully, nodded after a moment, and said, "It's okay to drain, but it will take some time to find the drain."
"Isn't there a river on the way here, and it's very close to here. One of the team members reminded.
"Okay! That's it, go get the pumping equipment ready. "
Roger!"
I couldn't help but wander around the pool, trying to see through the water from the surface.
After some thought, he came to some kind of conclusion.
If the toad eats people in order to provide sacrifices to the demon god, then it all makes sense.
Lady Takeshita is in charge of luring the sacrifices, and the toad devours the flesh and then passes it on to the demon god through some special means, which may be the complete process.
Since the toad is underwater, it is very likely that the demon god is also here, and now you can see what is going on when the water is drained.
While waiting, I didn't sleep idle, walking back and forth around the pool a few times, and unexpectedly found an anomaly.
The pool is surrounded by lush vegetation and the water is clean and clear, so you can clearly see some of the conditions of the shallow bank.
I dreamed of going to the corner of the pool, and out of the corner of my eye, I accidentally caught a glimpse of a water surface, and found that there were obvious traces of flow there, and immediately frowned.
Sensing the abnormality, he hurriedly bent down to check the situation, reached out to probe, and sure enough, he felt a gentle stream of water washing his palm.
"Brother Horii!" Horii,
who was organizing people to prepare for pumping, rushed to hear the sound and was quite surprised to see the abnormality of the water surface.
"Is this the flow
of water?" I thought to myself, "it must be flowing somewhere outside, and if there is water loss, the water level is not abating, indicating that there are other water intakes."
"It doesn't matter, it's where the water goes. Horii propped his knees, thought about it for a while, and came up with the answer in his heart, and when he turned his head, he realized that I was also looking at myself in my dream.
"River!" "
Whether it's Imu and the others or Horii and his party, when they enter the village, they will pass a river that runs through the middle of the village, and this man-made pool is supposed to bring in water from the river and then flow to another river basin.
If the pond is brought in water from the village river, then the water here will be elsewhere.
I dreamed of staring in the direction of the water, and then looked up in that direction.
The high wall blocked a certain view, but it could not stop the mountain that was far away in the sky.
I dreamed of looking back at Horii and finding the same answer in his eyes.
"I'm going to drive. "I don't know my intention to find the whereabouts of the water in my dream, but Horii firmly believes that what the other party is doing is right.
"Let's stop them.
"Aren't you going to pump water?"
"You can't drain it if there is river water coming in." "It's a hassle to make a casual decision, but it's good to find out early, so that they don't have to work in vain.
"Yes. Horii nodded, but fortunately, the pumping was only in the preparation stage, and he could change the plan temporarily as long as he said it.
Horii and the TPC team explained the reason, interrupted the pumping preparations, and left the B&B with Memu, driving all the way in the direction of the water outlet, crossing the normal road, and soon lost the road guidance in front of him, and Horii could only drive forward with the direction he remembered.
Fortunately, although the road was overgrown with weeds, it was straight and smooth, and there were no obstructive trees and buildings along the way.
I dreamed of stopping Horii, got out of the car and went to the stream, dipped some water on the tip of my nose and sniffed it carefully, and a strange smell that was the same as in the pool of the guesthouse suddenly strengthened his determination to find the end of the water source.
The mountain in front of them was getting closer and closer, and the creek was visibly widening with the distance, until finally when the two drove to a muddy area, a lake in the distance came into view.
"That's it. "I dreamed of running to the lake without the soft and sparse dirt on the ground, and turned my head to look into the distance, the outline of the village had completely disappeared, but the winding stream was close in sight.
Why did Takeshita B&B go to such lengths to connect the pond in the courtyard to the lake is a very puzzling question, and if you want to get the answer, you have to start from the roots.
The creek has an undercurrent and a bright water source, and the previous section of the road should have been paved artificially, but it seems to have been interrupted for some reason.
"It's such a wide lake, it's almost up to Longsen Lake. Looking at the vast surface of the lake, Horii couldn't help but sigh.
"It's not even close. "I dreamed of a pair of footprints approaching the edge of the lake.
Walking quickly to the lake, looking at the surface of the lake without waves of ancient wells, I dreamed of deep thought.
He didn't know whether it was a preconceived idea or an illusion, but he always felt that the lake gave him a feeling of oppression, as if the people who knew that the rain was about to fall were always panicked a moment before the storm came.
What frightened him the most was that looking at the calm lake, he had an urge to jump down for no reason, as if something in the lake was calling to him, which was very strange.
