Chapter 1581: The remains
Even Fati, who was talking to Zhang Zian and standing close to him, did not notice anything unusual. It saw that he was distracted and thought that he was not interested in the topic, so it said,””Let’s continue. The road ahead isn’t easy to walk. It’s faster to take a detour around the sea.”
“Uh … Okay.”
Zhang Zian wanted to explain his gaffe. After all, it was impolite to be absent-minded when talking. However, no one noticed anything unusual, so his explanation would seem weak and might even be regarded as an excuse.
He looked back at the quiet forest and called the elves to set off. They followed behind Fati and the Wolf Pack and left the abandoned Native American village.
The closer they got to the sea, the spa.r.s.er the forest became. They gradually transitioned into a combination of short trees and gra.s.slands, and their field of view became wider.
The ecosystem here was different from that of the forest. The black-tailed deer were scared away by the wolves, the Douglas squirrel jumped to the top of the trees, and the double-crowned Hawkbill turtle soared over the seaside cliff in the distance. From time to time, it swooped down like a bomber, and the cool sea wind blew on their faces.
Zhang Zian occasionally turned back to check the situation behind him, not knowing if the herd of red deers was still following them.
After walking for a while, they went around a stone wall and the majestic Pacific Ocean appeared in front of them.
They stopped at the same time and looked at the sea, as if they could see Binhai city on the other side of the sea.
The sea here was not as blue as the sea in Egypt. It was slightly grayish-green, and waves of tides surged onto the beach, hitting the rocks on the coast.
Pfft!
A mist suddenly spurted out of the distant sea, like a brilliant rainbow under the fading sunlight, and then disappeared again.
It was a whale.
Zhang Zian raised his telescope and looked. It was too far away, so he couldn’t tell what kind of whale it was.
“Let’s go to the beach. ” He suggested to fa Xiu,”I still have a friend here that you haven’t met yet.”
Walking on the beach was uneven, and they often sank into the sand, which obviously affected their speed more than walking on the gra.s.s. Fatale had no opinion and ordered the wolves to change to the beach.
Compared to the famous 17-mile coastal scenery near San Francisco, the scenery on this Wild Coast was nothing special. The sea was not blue, the beach was not white, and even the rocks on the coast were not magnificent, so it was normal that there was not a single person. Otherwise, no matter how remote it was, it could be developed into a tourist area.
Zhang Zian stood on a rock by the sea and saw that there were a lot of marine creatures living between the rocks, such as small fish, small shrimp, barnacles, mussels, stone turtles, starfish, crabs, and so on. Because there was no human disturbance, the most primitive ecological environment of the survival of the fittest was maintained.
He aimed his phone at the water next to the rock and released Sihwa.
Thump!
A figure with a human body and a fishtail plunged into the water, causing a huge splash.
“Aiyo! My a.s.s!” Sihwa bared her teeth and popped her head out of the sea. She glared at him and said,””Why don’t you choose a place with deeper water? He almost hit my head! If my peerless beauty is damaged, will you be able to bear the consequences?”
Zhang Zian didn’t say anything to her. She noticed the existence of the French pus.h.i.+ng and immediately diverted her attention. Where did this dog come from?”
The Dharma Protector coughed.”I’m a Wolf.”
“Alsatian?”
“Wolf.”
“Dog and Wolf’s time?”
“……”
Fati looked at Zhang Zian for help. It didn’t know how to answer, and it felt that its mind couldn’t keep up with this new half-human, half-fish guy.
Zhang Zian quietly pointed to his temple, meaning that there was a hole in this guy’s brain and that he should not take her seriously.
He let Sihwa out mainly because he felt sorry for letting her stay in the phone for so many days. Now that they were at the beach, he let her out for some fresh air. Otherwise, when they returned to Binhai city, she might use this reason to argue for a long time.
Sihwa kept calling Fati “doggie,” making Fati feel helpless. Just as he was thinking about how to introduce himself and emphasize that he was a Wolf, he heard the wolves running in front of him howl strangely.
“What’s wrong?” Zhang Zian saw its ears move, as if it had heard something.
“What did the wolves find? let’s go and take a look.”
There was a limit to what the wolves could express through their cries, and Fati was not sure what they had found. He could only see them circling something in the desert from a distance, seemingly interested in it. They were pulling it with their front claws and even trying to bite it.
Zhang Zian thought it was something like a sea turtle, so he followed along with the Elfins.
“Hey, hey! Where are you guys going? Why did you leave without a word?” Seeing that they were leaving, Sihwa swam parallel to them in the sea.
Fati was the first to arrive at the scene. With a shout, he dispersed the Wolf Pack, and Zhang Zian followed closely behind.
The thing that appeared in front of them, half-buried in the sand, shocked them all. Zhang Zian couldn’t help but take two steps back, unable to believe his eyes.
When the Elfins arrived, they were all shocked. The timid Pi even hid behind Zhang Zian, covering its eyes and not daring to look.
Even Sihwa, who was always in a daze, was so shocked that she covered her mouth to stop herself from screaming and hugged her arms tightly as if she was afraid of the cold.
It was a shoe.
To be more precise, it was a mid-waist walking boot, and the shoelaces were tied very firmly.
A shoe wasn’t a big deal, but he and the Elfins clearly saw a grayish-white stick-like object sticking out of the shoe. It was as thick as a branch, but it was much straighter than a branch, and the cross-section was uneven.
It was … A human’s calf bone.
If he walked to the side and looked into the shoes, he should be able to see the bones of the feet, and maybe even … The feet that had not completely rotted.
It depended on how long the person had been dead.
Zhang Zian and the Elfins looked at each other. No one approached, but they really looked into the shoes.
They had seen mummies and skeletons in the desert of Egypt. Although they were shocked at that time, they had been prepared for it, but this time, they were really caught off guard.
In addition, the mummies and skeletons were people who had been dead for many years, and the style of this shoe was quite trendy. The owner of the shoe probably had not been dead for a long time.
“Zian, what’s going on?”
Old time tea looked at the Wolf Pack suspiciously. In this forest, there weren’t many animals that could kill people. The Wolf Pack was obviously the most suspicious, and their excitement when they found the shoe just now only added to the suspicion.
The other elves also stared at the wolves warily.
Fati’s expression was solemn. He had only been in this forest for a few days, and he could not guarantee that this person had not been eaten by wolves.
