Chapter 006: Death
Wu Yan silently recited the word "Emperor Qin" in his heart, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say that it was wrong.
His eyes fell on the tall "figurine" and the place where he had just stood.
Is that...... Broken pottery shards?
It seems that this is the source of the sound of the shattering object just now. I thought to myself, could this "figurine" be just like this, it can be broken?
Wait a minute.
A thought suddenly appeared in Wu Yan's heart, an unbelievable thought. This made her swallow her saliva unconsciously, and she was speechless for a moment.
Qin Emperor figurines!
Put these three words together, plus the costumes of those figurines, is it not obvious enough?
Terracotta Warriors!
Wu Yan turned his head to look at the man, and his voice unconsciously raised and asked, "Aren't these puppets used to accompany the funeral?
"Yes. Figurines, puppets also. There is a wit-like face, like a living person, spontaneously activated, but there is no sexual spiritual knowledge. ”
The man then snorted softly and said, "However, this is not an ordinary figurine. Rather, it is a 'figurine' that has been blessed with a spell spirit. ”
Wu Yan was puzzled and asked, "Spell Spirit?" Suddenly he also thought of the wine lord that would appear faintly between his fingers, and another thought came to his mind.
Could it be that the world she is in now is different from the earth?
In other words, she has traveled to another world!
The man's eyes flashed slightly, and he explained, "It is a kind of evil magic, a spell that can be applied to ordinary 'figurines' to make them gain spiritual consciousness.
According to legend, the first appearance of this thing was more than 1,000 years ago. At that time, the Qin State began to conquer the countries with its own strength, and the years of conquest were bound to cause a large loss of soldiers and horses. So, in order to help Qin Shi Huang have enough crushing troops to dominate the world, a certain stranger refined such evil things.
"In this way, you can create unlimited soldiers and horses, and have an absolute advantage in combat power. ”
The man tilted his head, looked at Wu Yan and continued, "However, this kind of figurine is extremely difficult to control. Those who refine them, if they are not careful, will be eaten by them. Therefore, not long after the unification of the world, the strange man who had worked hard to support him died, and this evil magic was also lost. ”
Hearing this, Wu Yan couldn't help but rush and said, "Didn't you say that it was lost?
The tone was like a question, but Wu Yan didn't know it at this time. Her fear of death nature is undoubtedly exposed.
The man looked at her with a heavy gaze, a hint of mockery on the corner of his mouth, and said, "What else can it be." It's just a reappearance of the rivers and lakes!"
“......”
Wu Yan felt speechless, but he felt a sigh of relief for his answer in his heart.
"That'...... What kind of person is that Qin Emperor?"
In fact, Wu Yan wanted to ask why this person sent so many "figurines" to kill him, but he didn't dare to ask when the words came to his lips.
So far, she has not been able to determine whether this person is friend or foe, and how can it be so easy for people to know about this "self" who has no knowledge of the world unless it is a last resort.
Wu Yan waited for his answer, but saw the man pause slightly, chuckled and then looked at her with a strange expression.
...... I don't think I've said the wrong thing!
At this time, Wu Yan was like a second monk who was confused, and he was very puzzled by this person's reaction, and said in his heart: This person is also very weird!
While playfully enjoying the look on Wu Yan's face, the prodigal son said angrily: "Hey! It's a pity! The villain just doesn't know who he is?
“...... Do you have a place in your heart?"
The last few words were deliberately drawn to the elder, and even raised his eyebrows at Wu Yan.
Wu Yan snorted lightly in his heart, and also looked at him playfully and smiled: "It seems that my little life is properly stable! Lang Jun must be a peerless master among masters, so he is in the mood to make a joke about a little woman now." ”
Seeing Wu Yan looking at him with disdain, the man was still smiling and playing, without any repentance, and pouted: "Your reaction is really interesting. ”
Wu Yan glared at him and said silently: Say it quickly!
Wu Yan looked at him and felt in a trance, as if he saw the hatred flashing in his eyes. The hatred carved into the bone marrow instantly reflected his face softly, making people shudder.
The man sneered in a very low voice, "It's just that no one has ever seen him." I only know that the people in the rivers and lakes call him Emperor Qin. ”
Wu Yan has been very good at reading people's faces since he was a child, how obvious it is at this time, there is an indescribable deep pain in that person's laughter. I don't know why, Wu Yan was very eager to reach out at this time and pull the corner of his clothes.
But as soon as the words fell, Wu Yan didn't have time to react, and saw a flickering light mask around her, like a bell, covering her whole person.
Wu Yan was about to ask what this was, but the man said, "Stay here." After speaking, he walked towards the group of "figurines".
Wu Yan felt that there was an imperceptible tenderness in that tone. I can't say why, although I only saw him for the first time tonight, but at this time, I ...... It seems that they trust him completely.
Maybe it's because of his relaxed back, or maybe it's because of something else!
When a person comes to this world alone and faces the realm of death, it is lucky that someone can protect him. Although, she is also clearly aware that this luck belongs to this body.
However, the one who really accepts it is himself.
Now that he knew that this person was in his hands, Wu Yan was overjoyed, and couldn't help but raise the wine jug in his hand and wave it at him, saying, "Wait until you have all of them settled." I'll invite you to drink!"
On the surface, I said this, but in my heart I still couldn't help but want to bully him, and I thought a little badly: I didn't have the courage to ask you to drink poisonous wine, didn't I have the courage to ask you to drink wine mixed with some good things? Haha!
The happy mood is as if he has been rectified.
Hearing this, the man turned around and smiled at Wu Yan, "Okay! ”
Wu Yan waved his hand, "Go quickly, go quickly!"
After sending the person away, Wu Yan looked at this seemingly nonexistent light shield, and thought, this is the legendary talisman aura barrier!
Wu Yan was curious and cautious and reached out to poke it, only to see that the light mask was still flickering on and off, and there was no change at all.
Just when she felt that she was safe, suddenly a "figurine" appeared as if out of thin air, stood in front of her, without warning, raised a knife and was about to cut at her.
Wu Yan wanted to call the man, but he was so frightened that he couldn't speak, and secondly, he didn't know the person's name.
Wu Yan closed his eyes as if he were dead, and suddenly forgot the existence of this light mask.
Bang!
...... Huh? The little life is still there, and it's intact.
I thought to myself, the sound just now must be the dull sound of the sword hitting this protective aura barrier.
Wu Yan only opened one eye, and vaguely saw that the "figurine" staggered back a few steps, and then the hand holding the sword broke directly, and after falling to the ground from the body, it was broken into pieces. Still, the mutilated body could move.
After the man heard the voice, he asked, "Master, this thing is amazing, right?"
Wu Yan patted his ass and said, "That's not it! Lord's thing is so powerful!" After speaking, he stuck out his tongue at the "figurines" as if looking for death.
Wu Yan didn't think that in addition to being a puppet warrior, these "figurines" could also see things, have a person's basic consciousness, and even have emotions.
As a result, there really is.
I saw that after the "figurines" roared like crazy, the other "figurines" rushed up as if they had been ordered.
Wu Yan, she finally knows now what the breath of death is.
