Chapter 172: Hell on Earth

The gangsters in the rivers and lakes on weekdays fled like rats, completely devoid of calm, and Huo Meng and Lian Tuo kept waving their arms, taking Dong Ce to hide in the bushes, but before they ran in, they all hurriedly retracted their steps and stood in place in horror, because in the dark and cold dense forest, there were shadowy figures, like evil ghosts, the reason why I said that was because the shadows that Huo Meng saw were dressed in black with a death gas, blending with the trees, and their faces were silently gloomy towards them, which made people frightened。 Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Huo Meng swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and just when they didn't know what to do, suddenly, those strange shadows moved, and they staggered through the low trees like hell ghosts, holding all kinds of strange weapons, and came towards them.

There was almost no time to breathe, Huo Meng and Lian Tuo could only run to the side with Dong Ce, and some brothers followed them.

Gu Xiu asked him why he didn't resist, he said that the cold air emanating from the other party's body was too strong, everyone was afraid of weak legs, and they could barely hold their weapons, even if they resisted, the final result would not be good, and the speed of those masked people was very fast, Huo Meng remembered that there were two particularly special, one tall and one short, the tall one did not wear a mask, and his face seemed to be crawling with more than a hundred worms, he quickly grabbed a companion who fled in a hurry, and the companion screamed miserably, and when Huo Meng turned around, he saw that the tall monster figure was holding a heart in his hand, a heart that was still beating。

Realizing that the man had torn his companion's chest with his bare hands! Huo Meng was very frightened, and he was even more sure that what he saw was not a person, but a ghost. And among them, there is also a short man, like the tall man, he also has the ability to tear people with his bare hands, but he is not strong, and his posture still seems a little rickety, Huo Meng didn't dare to look at it more, he kept running forward, and his ears were filled with the miserable cries of his companions. He was so frightened that he ran so fast that he escaped.

What happened next was recounted by another soldier, Daze, who had climbed the tree in the midst of the chaos, and he said that there were forty or fifty men dressed in black, and they wore strange hideous masks and could not see their faces clearly.

After they appeared, those insects suddenly flew away as if they had been instructed by something, and the one who gave the order was the rickety masked man that Huo Meng said.

He remembered what powder-like thing he had sprinkled in the air, and it had an indescribable smell, like sulfur. Sulfur was not common in the Western Han Dynasty, because there was a lack of natural sulfur in the Central Plains, and only the volcanic lands in the Western Regions had it. Although Dai Ze is a Han Chinese, he left his hometown with his parents very early and went to live in the Western Regions, so he knows the taste very well.

Sulfur has the effect of preventing pests and diseases, but I didn't expect the bloodthirsty fireflies to be afraid. Dai Ze saw that those flying insects were gone, hiding in the trees, looking at those strange people, he was very afraid in his heart, he always felt that he would be discovered by these villains, but there was no other place to hide, and not far from him, the one hiding was Liu Guang, Liu Guang was tall and couldn't climb trees, so he hid in the bushes.

Although the two hide in different places, they both know that the other is there, and occasionally use the expressions on their faces to convey their fears, hoping to get a little comfort and encouragement.

After the worms flew away, some of the companions lying on the ground were not dead, but the people who had been eaten by the worms were not like ghosts, and they were squirming and wriggling, not even realizing what was happening, and then they were subjected to even more cruel abuse.

Dazzle noticed that some of the thugs were like children, and they all listened to the short, somewhat clumsy man who was looking at the slaughter.

Some of the thugs lifted stones, others took out knives to chop wood, and they smashed people's heads and dug into their chests, and trembling pleas for mercy came from the mouths of their companions, but the pleas for mercy did not prevent the heinous killing. Someone had their hands and feet cut off, someone screamed so loudly, their tongues cut out, and some had their eyes gouged out, and it was like a scene in hell.

It was so cruel that Dai Ze shouted in his heart, and he was so chilled that he almost fell from the tree in shock. And the most disgusting thing is that Dai Ze saw a scene that he will never forget in his life.

The glossy dwarf muttered something, and a few men brought the cage, and the rickety dwarf took out the contents and stuffed them into the bodies of his companions inch by inch. At that time, the distance was far away, and Dai Ze didn't see it clearly, and he didn't dare to look more.

But Liu Guang seemed to see something, and he let out a shocked cry in his mouth, although his voice was soft, but he was discovered by the tall villain. The tall villain Huo Ran walked towards Liu Guang, Liu Guang was so frightened that he ran backwards, he screamed, he didn't run far, and was soon caught by the tall villain. Dai Ze was hesitant to save his companion, and just as he was wandering between fear and the affection of his partner, Liu Guangsheng hummed a song written by Changsheng, the content of which was that the soldiers who went out on the expedition could not return home, and that the partner should continue to live with his mission.

Liu Guang sang tremblingly, Dai Ze's tears flowed down, Gu Xiu didn't expect that Liu Guang, who was five big and three rough on weekdays, still had such a resolute righteousness, and he couldn't help but faintly admire it in his heart.

It's just that before the song was finished, the tall villain dug Liu Guang's chest open...... Liu Guang's body kept twitching, and Dai Ze looked at his tragic death, and his heart ached, but soon this uncomfortable feeling was overwhelmed by shock, because he could see clearly what was stuffed in Liu Guang's chest.

It was a kind of fish roe-like thing, in fact, it was an insect egg, he covered his mouth that wanted to vomit, and almost fainted in surprise and disgust, but in order to die Liu Guang's fulfillment, he controlled it very well, holding his breath, so he was not discovered by the tall villains.

He hid for a long time, but the men did not leave, except for the tall man, and some others began to search the ground, and they chose some soldiers, and then with a huge machete, they cut off their heads, and then grabbed them by the hair with one hand, and dragged their heads away. Because it was a neck that was cut off in an instant, there was almost no blood, so when Gu Xiu inspected the scene, he didn't see any traces of the human head being dragged.

Gu Xiu asked Dai Ze, do you know where they got the head? Dai Ze shook his head, saying that it was too thrilling at that time, he hid in a tree and peed his pants, and almost fell down the tree, and when he met Huo Meng and them, he could barely walk on his two legs, he was helped up by someone on his knees, and he didn't care about anything else at all.

After hearing Huo Meng and Dai Ze's words, the story was basically complete, but I didn't know what special use those people had for deliberately cutting off the heads of the soldiers. Although this matter has not been answered, Gu Xiu can probably guess who the person who did it is, the tall and fierce man described by Huo Meng and Dai Ze is actually the Geda that Gu Xiu tortured and killed before, and they are undoubtedly from Loulan. It's just that their purpose of killing the Han army is unknown, but Gu Xiu thought of a possibility, those Loulan people may feel that their territory has been invaded by outsiders, so they kill on a large scale.

The reason why I think so is because there are such isolated tribes in the Central Plains, their strange existence in the world, they don't want to be invaded, if people find their traces, they will be wiped out.

It's just that what Gu Xiu is thinking about now is not the consequences of encountering these people, but about the tomb in this forest that the people of the Thorn Tomb Gate said, if those Loulan people are residents who have lived here for a long time, then they must know the location of the tomb......
