    Qi Lin's exclamation was not for anything else, but because there were so many human bones hidden in the pyramid on the island in the wild rainforest!  This strange scene, coupled with the noise of the huge number of birds in the pyramid flapping their wings and chirping after being awakened, makes it even more eerie and terrifying.

    After listening to Qi Lin's words, Mr. Shi felt no fear in his heart. On the contrary, a look of unexpected joy appeared on his brows. After all, there are human bones, which means there are clues to the crystal skull. So everyone came to this place not without hope.  meaningful.  So Mr. Shi collected his thoughts and slowly walked into the pyramid.

    The inner chamber of the pyramid, which is not too big, is filled with piles of white human corpses, but none of them have heads. It seems that they were all chopped off for some kind of ceremony, or the executioner did not intend to leave any bones for the poor dead.  A whole corpse. In this way, even the reincarnation of the soul that the ancients believed in will not happen. Its intentions are not evil.

    These skeletons look to be several years old, and the surface has long been covered with a thin layer of moss. The grayish-white color has a hint of green, making it even more eerie and terrifying.

    Mr. Shi knelt down on one knee and picked up a broken leg bone. After looking at it for a long time, he seemed unable to determine the age of the body. After shaking his head slightly, he lifted up a fragment of the spine, but still couldn't be sure, so he continued to move towards the pile of bones.  Go deep.

    Suddenly, a black shadow with two red lights flashed out from the depths of the bone pile. Mr. Shi was stunned and his body stayed in place. Qi Lin, who was following closely behind, was shocked. He quickly pulled out the dog-leg knife and raised the blade to the ground.  It blocked the forward direction of the black shadow. The black shadow had no time to change direction, and plunged into the blade, and then fell to the ground.  Qi Lin looked intently and saw that it was a dark brown mouse, but the mouse was huge, as big as a rabbit. Qi Lin was relieved and just about to use the tip of a knife to push away the unconscious mouse, only to see a pile of bones.  Countless rats jumped out quickly and rushed towards everyone's bodies.

    "Damn it! It turns out to be a rat's nest!" Qi Lin shouted loudly, and at the same time, he pulled Shi Lao in front of him back behind him. The dog-legged knife danced into a sword, blocking the rats that rushed towards the front of his body one by one. Fortunately,  The mouse was just disturbed and ran away. It seemed that it did not intend to treat the eight people as food. After scratching and scratching for a while, the figure disappeared into the dense forest outside the pyramid. However, the eight people were still scratched and bitten by the mouse to varying degrees.  The tattered clothes were now even more riddled with holes.

    After regaining his composure, Qi Lin asked the wasps to bring two big rocks and smash them into the center of the pile of corpses in order to force out the remaining rats. However, there were no rats at all. Only a python as thick as an arm slowly came out. Qi Lin  He quickly made way and was ready to watch the homeowner leave, but the python's tail seemed to be fixed, and the python, which was more than three meters long, was still able to pull its body into a straight line, and it was still unable to move forward an inch.

    Qi Lin was extremely surprised. Is there anything weird in the pile of bones?  So he summoned the wasps to press the python's head to the ground, and he pulled the human bones near the python's tail to both sides. After a moment of rustling, a dark brown round stone covered with fallen leaves came into view.

    "Why is it a stone? No, it seems to be still moving" Qi Lin muttered to himself and walked to the "stone". After looking at it for a moment, he realized that it was not a stone, but a turtle the size of a pot lid.  , the triangular head resembles a fallen leaf floating down from the tree, and the pointed nose is the petiole. The turtle shell has no obvious checkerboard pattern, but an uneven shape like a fluffy humus layer.  Mimicry taken to the extreme.  At this time, the turtle had retracted into its shell and bit the snake's tail tightly. Even though Qi Lin had come to his side, he had no intention of letting go.

    As soon as Qi Lin finished explaining this situation, the extremely curious warthog quickly walked up to the turtle, squatted down to admire it, and praised in his mouth: "The highest level of lurking, if this turtle lies on the ground and does not move,  Even if we, Laoyou, step over it, we won¡¯t be able to spot it.¡±

    Mr. Shi said: "Xiao You, this is not a turtle, but a unique species in the Amazon Basin, the dead leaf turtle. Look, the head of this turtle looks like a fallen leaf."

    "Mr. Shi, are you saying that this kind of turtle is only found in the Amazon? Then we are deep in the Amazon rainforest? Oh my God, it turns out we are here!" Qi Lin suddenly woke up and blurted out.

    "Well! The old man didn't realize this. It seems that we are really in the Amazon rainforest, because apart from appearing as pets in other parts of the world, the dead leaf tortoise can only be found in the Amazon rainforest, and the place we are in  In this era, leaf turtles are clearly not pets." Mr. Shi suddenly realized and couldn't help but say.

    Yi Meng seemed to have thought of something. After thinking for a moment, Yi Meng frowned and said, "Amazon rainforest? The sea? No, the water here is clearly fresh water, so this is a huge lake, and with so many islands, it suddenly reminded me  A special place!¡±

    "What??Place?  "The warthog couldn't wait any longer and asked.

    "The Anavigliana Islands, the largest inland river archipelago in the world, are located on the Negro River, the largest tributary on the left bank of the Amazon River. Well, that's right. This is the only place that best suits the situation at hand!" Yi Meng gushed.  , tell everything in your mind.

    "Oh my God! We're in South America? Why don't we blame the piranhas!" The warthog slapped his forehead and said in a daze, "Why doesn't this turtle run away? Is it not afraid of us, or does it just want to pretend to be dead? What if  In this case, turtle, you are wrong, Mr. You usually loves turtle soup the most, and besides, he is very hungry now, hahaha!"

    "It's not that it doesn't want to run away, but it's just that it can't run at all. Look, its four feet are nailed. How can you let it run?" Qi Lin said.

    When Taoist Master Xuan Jizi heard Qi Lin's words, he felt knotty in his heart. He quickly approached the dead leaf turtle, then squatted down and took a closer look. Sure enough, four copper nails were driven deeply into the middle of the four soles of the dead leaf turtle.  When put into stone, it looks extremely solid.

    "How strange! This is clearly done by humans, but what is the purpose of pinning it immobile?" the Taoist priest murmured.

    Qi Lin had been thinking about this problem for a long time. Seeing that the Taoist priest was puzzled, he couldn't help but said: "Taoist priest, this is what I think. You see, this pyramid is a good hiding place. Rats can avoid the things that can be seen everywhere in the rain forest."  Birds of prey hid in the piles of bones. Even if birds such as hawks and falcons entered, they would not be able to get into the bones. Perhaps the mice took advantage of this. Rodents are the most important component of the python's diet, so  Pythons often visit here and eat mice. In this way, they will be captured by the well-hidden leaf turtles, and instead become prey themselves. This is why the leaf turtles are pinned and unable to move, but they still do not starve to death.  , and turtles have the best endurance in the animal kingdom and can survive even if they don¡¯t eat or drink for two or three months. This forms a very clever biological chain, and each link fully takes into account the instincts of the three animals  characteristic."

    The warthog didn't seem to agree and asked: "Your hypothesis makes sense, but why do these big rats have to be on this island instead of going to other places? This rainforest is so big and they can't be found anywhere."  Order food.¡±

    Qi Lin replied: "I have already thought of this. The reason why these rats stay on the island is because the surrounding water is full of piranhas. Once they go into the water, they may be eaten until they can't even find their bones. Lao You, you should  You know how powerful piranhas are!"

    Lao You shrank his neck with a sneer on his face, and Qi Lin continued: "Maybe it's not just that simple. I feel that including the piranhas, pythons and rats in the water, there seem to be deliberate traces of artificial breeding. I always feel like this place  It¡¯s just a deliberately set up breeding farm.¡±

    Taoist priest Xuan Jizi nodded frequently, as if he felt that Qi Lin's inference was reasonable. Then the Taoist priest asked: "Forget about other things, what is the reason for nailing the dead leaf turtle into the pyramid? Could it be that this turtle has important responsibilities?"  mission?"

    Qi Lin hadn¡¯t thought about this level yet, so he fell into hard thinking.  But Mr. Shi seemed to have remembered something, and said at this time: "I have already seen the shell and body of this dead leaf turtle, and there is nothing special about it. But since it is nailed here and cannot be moved, what will happen?  Is it to cover up some secret underneath?"

    After listening, Qi Lin didn't even answer. He took out the dog-leg knife again and pried up the four copper nails on the tortoise's feet. At first, Qi Lin thought that the copper nails must be very strong, but who knew that with one pry, the copper nails would be broken.  The nail was actually broken into pieces, and seemed to have been corroded beyond its appearance by the patina. The dead leaf turtle seemed to have formed a mindset that it was unable to move. Even though the copper nail had been taken out, its body remained motionless.

    Qi Lin looked at the poor leaf turtle, and suddenly a sympathy emerged in his heart. He patted the leaf turtle's back with his hand and said, "Let's go, you are free!" But the leaf turtle didn't realize it, and it seemed that it had already  Accept fate.  Qi Lin had no choice but to lift both sides of the turtle body with both hands and move the dead leaf turtle aside.

    "Holy crap, there's something down there!" The warthog took a calf bone in his hand and pulled the ground beneath the leaf turtle twice, revealing a small hole about five centimeters in diameter!

    The warthog's index finger, like a radish, dug into the small hole and pulled out a small yellow-brown ball. After brushing off the dust, he handed it to Old Shi's hands with great interest.

    Shi Lao gently pinched the small ball with two fingers. It was still slightly elastic when he took it. It seemed to be made of natural resin. After pinching it a few more times, he felt that the center of the small ball was slightly hard, so he handed it to Qi Lin to cut it open with a knife.  .

    With a knife across the ball, a trace of bronze appeared in the center of the ball. Qi Lin followed the edge of the knife and tore open the surface of the ball, and a small ball made of leather fell out.  Mr. Shi picked up the ball, then gently unfolded it. After identifying it again and again, he was sure that it was actually a map!

    The map is drawn on a thin piece of sheepskin, and its yellowish color is enough toIt was a long time ago, and without the sealing protection of the rubber layer on the surface, it would have rotted into dust.  Upon closer inspection, the charcoal-black handwriting on the map is a bit sloppy, and seems to be just trying to outline the outline of the mountains and the sea as vividly as possible. A thin scarlet line may be the footprint of the route, but the sheepskin map is square and only the size of a handkerchief.  In addition, the mountains on the edge are not complete and should be neatly cut. From this point of view, this is just a part of the map.

    "The connected arc below is a bit like the Aleutian Islands See, Mr. Shi, the shape of this land is a bit like Alaska. The opposite side is clearly the Kamchatka Peninsula, but it doesn't seem to be the case. Why is there the Bering Strait in the middle?  Are they connected together? Strange!" Qi Lin said from the side.

    After all, Mr. Shi was a bit old and had not seen clearly what was drawn on the map just now. At this moment, Qi Lin reminded him and he suddenly saw the clues. He held the sheepskin map in his hands and almost reached the tip of his nose, with a very moved expression on his face.  Said: "I understand, I understand! This is indeed the Bering Strait! If this red line represents the travel route, then this map may represent the history of 10,000 years ago. At that time, the Bering Strait was frozen and separated from the sea.  There is no difference between solid land, so is this a map of ancient humans migrating to the Americas?"

    Wasp was standing opposite Shi Lao at this time, staring at the reverse side of the map held high by Shi Lao, and said: "This is nothing, the reverse side of the map seems to depict a battle scene, the same body shape, the same clothing  "

    After hearing these words, Mr. Shi suddenly turned over the map before Wasp had finished reading it!
