Chapter 35: Inference

Soon, several people climbed over a small hill and saw the abandoned stronghold.

A dilapidated building leaning on the slope of a hill, the roof had been torn to the point that I don't know where it was, the long central bracket was broken into several pieces and buried in the mound, the three-story wooden beams had collapsed, and a huge hole in the middle of the huge room-like space on the top was abruptly empty, and the round stone steps were also ruined......

What the hell happened here, how did it look like a ruin, Sanjing squatted down and found a lot of footprints of wild beasts, as well as traces of dragon claws, and even some unknown scales and bloodstains, presumably after many tragic attacks and battles.

At this time, Chikage was already standing on the outside of the stronghold, waiting for them.

"It's too slow...... Are you two hunters? Chikage's tone was unrelenting.

Gulliga seemed to think that in the Fire Wood Secret Realm, Lan had laughed at them like this, but now he was also underestimated by a woman.

"Well, the old man is already fifty-seven, can you have some sympathy and take care of the old hunter who is old and weak......" Ning Lao said as he bent over and gasped.

Hanami said, "Is this the stronghold?" It seems to have a strange taste......"

"You mean the smell of blood and the smell of decay?" Sanjing observed the surroundings, and there were basically no other living creatures except for overgrown weeds.

"No, it's kind of ...... It's kind of like some kind of dragon breath, it's special. As soon as Hanami said this, Gulga seemed to suddenly notice something, a little unusual feeling, and squatted down to find something.

"Oh?" Sankei looked at Chikage wearing a mask and didn't know what she was thinking, and she circled around the stronghold again, as if she was waiting for something. "Ning Lao, are there any rumors around here that there are any dragons that have appeared?"

Ning Lao shook his head, "Although there are some small hills here, they still belong to the region of the Central Great Plains, and they are all common small or medium-sized dragon species, such as small horned dragons, small mountain dragons, scale dragons, and the most ferocious ones are the Raging Dragons and Flying Needles, and other evil dragons are said to have been witnessed by no one."

The names of the string of dragon species that Ning Lao said didn't seem to be worthy of Sanjing's attention, but it was clear that Hanami and Guliga had noticed something unusual at the same time.

Ning Lao was silent for a while and then said, "However, I heard that there is a rumor in Lahabi Village......

Sanjing asked, "What rumors?" ”

"It is rumored that the village of Lahabi was first established by a dragon species and a human, and that dragon species is called the infant spoon dragon, which is also the rumored dragon species, which is said to be predated by other dragon species because of its delicious meat, and gradually became extinct, but also due to long-term battles and confrontations, the baby spoon dragon is very powerful, intelligent, and even comparable to humans in some aspects."

"Therefore, the Lahabi people have a belief in intelligent dragons, believing that the ancient dragon species can protect the village of Lahabi, but because of this, people do not believe that the village of Lajabi was founded by dragons and people, but is just a legend of the Lahabi people's own wishful thinking due to worship."

In other words, it is still possible that there are still this rumored dragon species living in this area, predating, exterminating, and being attacked, and Sanjing always feels that there is a connection between these points, but he can't say what it is for a while.

I saw that Gulika and Hanami were digging something in one place at the same time, and the dirt over there had been pushed away by most of it, and Sanjing also came over, and several bone-like things appeared in front of everyone's eyes, which seemed to be some kind of dragon's tailbone......

But why is there only such a section, as if it has been artificially buried here.

"Could it be that the village chief buried it?" Sanjing was muttering.

"Oh? It's not bad, it seems that it has been discovered, hunters, these broken tailbones are indeed buried by the village chief......" Chikage said lightly.

"You know there's a clue, why don't you say it?" Ning Lao asked rhetorically, thanks to the perverted existence of hunters and Hanami who have a perception system, otherwise they would not have been able to find this buried coccyx for a while.

"As I said, I don't trust hunters I don't know." Chikage said, "However, I speculate that the coccyx was originally found by the village chief in the vicinity, and that the village chief buried it in the same location. ”

What the village chief discovered? Could it be that the coccyx existed in this underground for a long time? Sanjing suddenly thought, could those evil dragons attacking this stronghold have something to do with this tailbone?

In the past, when the village chief established the base, he must have carefully explored the terrain and landforms, and finally decided to establish the stronghold, if the coccyx was discovered after this, then through what kind of process was it discovered?

Construction, base, construction......

Could it be that part of the area was excavated by the construction of the stronghold, and then these long-buried tailbones were rediscovered?

This is extremely probable, but listening to Chikage's tone, it seems that only the village chief knows about these tailbones, which means that these tailbones have not been discovered when the stronghold was built, and these tailbones were not discovered by the village chief until the evil dragon continued to attack this place and the place was completely deserted......

Could it be that this is what the village chief said about finding a clue......

Everything seemed to be connected in an instant, and Sanjing already had a rather credible guess in his mind.

"Could these coccyxes be the tailbones of the infant spoon dragon?" As soon as Gulika said this, everyone around him (except Hanami) fell into deep thought.

But they hadn't seen the baby spoon dragon and couldn't judge it easily.

Sanjing said, "If it is the tailbone of the infant spoon dragon, then will the surrounding fierce beasts be attracted because of these tailbones, Ning Lao said that the infant spoon dragon was hunted and exterminated by other dragon species, could it be that these dragon species do not even let go of the bones of the infant spoon dragon?" ”

"Is it that delicious?" Gulliga sniffed the tailbones again, and there was only some strange smell of decay, could it be that the dragons liked it too?

Ning Lao said slowly, "The old man has never heard of the saying that he was attracted by a few corpse bones, if it is a whole head or a whole corpse bone, it will be easy to understand, but if the dragon species of the baby spoon dragon is really eaten and extinct, then these other dragon species that persecute the baby spoon dragon should also be sensitive to these smells, even if it has been buried for a long time, sometimes this innate intuition in the dragon species is so magical." ”

Sanjing smiled slightly, "This is easy to do, Ning Lao stood on the slope with these tailbones, waved slightly, and stood in a conspicuous position where the air flow was smoother, and a few of us would hide the good breath nearby, and see what movement would occur, so that it would be good to verify our inference......"
