The Dawa man didn't answer, he spat out a mouthful of blood, fell forward, and lost his breath.
The tattoos on his body were all in a ball, and the ghost inside dissipated.
Apart from those words, there was nothing left for us.
Any useful information.
I checked carefully and found that he was dead and all three souls had disappeared.
In less than ten minutes, all three souls disappeared.
There was only one possibility, and that was that he had already made preparations before coming back.
"Woo" I was still thinking when a dull horn sound came from the distance.
With the sound of the horn, the originally dull primeval forest suddenly became lively.
Poisonous insects, birds, and beasts all ran in the opposite direction to the sound of the horn.
"Brother" the little sister called out worriedly.
"squeak" Jin Zi also called out, stared at the direction where the horn sound came from, then looked at me, fluttered his golden cicada wings, and flew to the right.
I followed him.
Without me, Jin Zi would definitely choose to march towards the sound of the horn instead of running away.
I ran in the forest for nearly half an hour.
The scenery in front suddenly opened up.
A small pool was fifty meters away.
The source of the pool was a dark cave.
Just by looking at it with the naked eye, the cave is lower than the pool, and the water should flow back.
But the current situation is indeed that water flows back from the cave.
Jin Zi's target was the entrance of the cave.
I could feel it.
It was very excited.
Even though it tried its best to control it, it still made an uncontrollable sound.
The water in the pool is not deep, just above the shoulders, and is still warm.
The closer you get to the entrance of the cave, the shallower the water becomes.
After entering the cave, the water is just above the knees.
It was pitch dark inside the cave, and I could only hear the rushing sound of water.
Jin Zi ignored the darkness and led the way.
With him there, I didn't have to worry about safety.
After walking about a hundred meters, a dim light appeared in front of him.
This was a three-way intersection.
Jin Zi turned directly into the rightmost entrance, and the light came out from there.
This is a cave.
On the cave wall, there are dim oil lamps hanging.
The pale yellow light falls softly, illuminating most of the cave and making my heart tighten.
There are nearly twenty oil lamps on the cave wall.
Inside every oil lamp, there is a painful and hideous face.
I walked over slowly.
The lampshade was smoked black, and the wick was a yellow-black tail needle, which looked like a scorpion's tail.
More than half of the lamp oil was consumed, and the remaining small half was very turbid.
"Corpse Oil" I looked carefully, and these two words came to my mind, and I immediately understood why there were ferocious faces in every oil lamp.
"Brother, this is a soul-burning lamp.
Some tribes use it to punish those who violate clan rules or enemy personnel."
The little girl explained while inspecting the environment in the cave.

The cave is about half the size of a football field, and there are traces of bonfires in the middle.
It should be a settlement. besides.
There is also a small cave about seven or eight square meters deep inside, which contains twenty half-meter-high stone urns.
Jin Zi's target is these stone urns.
It circles around these stone urns and emits a clear chirp from time to time.
The stone urn is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, with a diameter of about ten centimeters at the mouth.
There is a stone on top, and under the stone is a dry green leaf.
I knocked on the stone urn, but there was no sound at all.
The gold rushed to my eyes anxiously, nodding my head.
"Don't worry" I smiled and understood what it meant.
Judging from its appearance, there must be a worm in it, and it wanted to eat it.
I carefully opened a stone cover and took off the dry green leaf.
A fishy smell came out, making me lean back, but Jin Zi got right in.
"hiss" Amid a strange hissing sound, a fist-sized snake head emerged, twisting and struggling wildly.
There was a small hole the size of a thumb where the snake's head connected to its neck.
It was bleeding, and a buzzing sound could be heard coming from inside.
Gold was inside.
The snake struggled for a moment and then stopped moving.
Completely dead, Jin quickly got out of the hole, his purple eyes filled with pride.
"This is a Gu Urn" I murmured, there were twenty stone urns in total, all of which were used to raise Gu.
Open the second stone urn.
What emerged from it was a palm-sized scorpion, and in addition, there was a centipede.
This time, Jin Zi showed his disdain.
Without even looking, he flapped his golden cicada wings and made a buzzing sound, which frightened the two things back.
Opening these stone urns one by one, Jin Zi was interested in only five of them.
Without exception, there was only one poisonous insect alive inside.
"It's a pity.
Gu insects can still mature.
In five days, they will probably mature."
The little girl smacked her lips, a little disappointed.
"This is an unexpected surprise.
Don't expect too much.
Jin Zi is full today."
I nodded to Jin Zi lying on top of me and said with a smile.
Apart from these stone urns, there is nothing else worth noting in the cave.
This is a stronghold of the Dawa tribe.
I don't understand why the Dawa people live in caves.
Although I entered the tiankeng not long ago, I didn't see any stilt houses.
Not only that, I didn't see many traces of human activities in the mountains and forests.
According to the confessions of the two Yao family children.
The Dawa tribe still has a population of more than 300 people.
If these 300 people want to survive, they must live in a village.
But instead of finding a village, I found a settlement in a cave.
Do they all live in a cave?
Inside The situation in the cave was simple and clear, and I also felt a familiar aura, the aura of an explosion of dragon energy.

The aura left here is very much like dragon aura, but I clearly didn't find any dragon veins in the cave, let alone earth vein nodes.
It's really strange.
"Brother, why does this thing look familiar to me?"
After checking the cave, the little girl drew my attention back and pointed at the thing pulled out of the Dawa man's mouth.
After entering the cave, this thing changed its appearance again.
It has returned to its original pink color, is less than thirty centimeters long, has four short claws, and is covered with a layer of mucous membrane.
"This looks like a cave salamander" I checked it carefully and then remembered this thing.
Cave salamanders are amphibians that mostly live in dark cave environments.
But this one seems a little different.
It has a sharp breath, one more pair of gills than a normal salamander, and the blood in its body is also weird.
It should have been transformed into a Gu insect by the Dawa tribe.
"It should be called Gu.
If you use it as your natal Gu, you will be able to survive in the cave more easily."
I briefly analyzed it, and I admired the Dawa clan even more for being able to transform the newt into a native Gu.
I suspect the Dawa should not live just for convenience.
There should be other reasons for this.
After figuring out the cave, I returned along the original path.
When I first entered, there were three forks and two others.
I haven't explored it yet, but the Dawa people should have a lot of secrets here.
After turning out, Jin Zi wavered between the other two intersections for a long time, and finally chose the one in the middle.
Walking in water just above your knees, the further you go.
The more I feel a little palpitation.
"Woo" After walking less than ten meters, the familiar sound of horns sounded again.
I could tell that the sound of horns should have come from outside the water pool, and the Dawa tribe had found this place.
“It’s very fast” I frowned.
Subconsciously speeding up, after walking nearly fifty meters, three more forked roads appeared ahead.
I rubbed my brows, and now I somewhat understood why the Dawa tribe wanted to transform the salamanders into salamanders.
Judging from the current situation, this is simply a maze.
Without natives like salamanders who are adapted to dark life, there would still be I really can't get used to it.
Jin Zi was also a little confused at this time.
He paused at the three intersections, flew back and forth several times, and finally chose the middle entrance.
Jin Zi's first choice was purely because he smelled the scent of the poisonous insects and wanted to have a big meal.
Now that he had eaten and drank enough, he didn't have such an urgent desire.
Following its choice, I understood a little bit why it chose the middle fork twice.
The dragon energy in the middle part was stronger.
According to the current choice, I was very likely to find a dragon vein
