Chapter 195: The Terrible Evil (4000)
“……”
Yang Wanli turned his head at an extremely slow speed and looked at the soldier who reminded him, with an extremely unfamiliar look in his eyes.
The same was true of another soldier in the same situation.
Standing in place as if enchanted, he looked at Wu Liang and the others stupidly, no matter what he said or did, his reaction was extremely slow, and he looked unfamiliar with Wu Liang and the others who had never seen him.
"No......"
Seeing this sudden strange situation, Wu Liang suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
Yang Wanli and the soldier behaved almost exactly like the symptoms of "evil spirit" that Han Cheng had described before, and if so, they might also have a manic state of yelling and screaming later.
After a few days, it will suddenly disappear, ending up with no one alive or dead......
But what puzzled Wu Liang was.
There were a total of four people who entered the ancient city ruins early this morning to explore, why did only Yang Wanli and one of the soldiers have this situation, while the other two soldiers did not fall into the evil together?
Could it be that the "evil spirit" of this Gucheng site has the same habit as the Wumai tomb keeper who went to the tomb of King Liu of Guangchuan, only two people at a time, and he is afraid that he will not be able to eat enough and waste food?
"Dian Wei, hold him down!"
After a moment of silence, Wu Liang decisively asked Dian Wei to hold Yang Wanli down, and then stepped forward and pinched Yang Wanli's person with his thumb nail.
“……”
Yang Wanli was still at a loss, not only did he not speak, but he didn't even frown.
"Even the pain is gone?"
The bad premonition in Wu's conscience was even stronger.
Then he hurriedly took out the "Soul Returning Incense" he was carrying, pulled out the stopper, and directly aimed the bottle mouth at Yang Wanli's nostrils, this breath is definitely enough to refresh his mind.
“……”
As a result, Yang Wanli sucked like this for a while, but there was still no reaction.
If it weren't for the fact that he was still standing upright, his eyes were open, and he was able to make some very simple reactions when stimulated by some sounds or movements, he was actually not much different from a vegetative person.
Since the "soul return incense" is useless, what about the "soul loss incense"?
To tell the truth, Wu Liang does have some urgency to throw coins now, as long as it is a method that he can think of, he doesn't mind trying it even if it is ridiculous.
The idea is just emerging.
Wu Liang had already stuffed the "Lost Soul Incense" under Yang Wanli's nostrils.
This "Lost Soul Incense" is very powerful, as long as you smell a small amount, you can immediately charm people to the ground, and even a super strong man like Dian Wei can't bear it.
But this time, the "Lost Soul Incense" also lost its effect.
I saw that Yang Wanli had already inhaled several breaths into the bottle mouth of the "Lost Soul Incense", but he was still standing in place, and he was still able to make sluggish and slow movements......
"Soul Returning Incense" is useless, and "Lost Soul Incense" is useless.
Could it be that Yang Wanli really lost his "soul" in the ruins of the ancient city?
Wu Liang really couldn't imagine what was the cause of Yang Wanli's current situation, and he tried all the methods he could think of, but now he had no idea at all.
"Childe ......"
Seeing that Wu Liang frowned at the moment, and he was a little impatient when he started to do things, which could be regarded as a mess compared to usual, Yu Ji had to wrinkle an old face to persuade him, "This matter is a bit strange, according to the old man, it should be considered in the long run, it is better to bring Yang Wanli and the others back first, and figure out what is going on before making a decision." ”
Bai Jingjing silently walked to Wu Liang's side and held his hand without moving, hoping to temporarily ease Wu Liang's mood in this way.
"Childe, Yu Ji has a point, please think twice."
Even Dian Wei, who has never talked much nonsense, clenched his fists and persuaded him.
His duty is to protect Wu Liang, and this kind of inexplicable, invisible, and untouchable danger is beyond his strength and force, so he naturally doesn't want Wu Liang to take risks.
"Hmmm......"
Wu Liang groaned.
In fact, his heart was not messed up, but he was a little impatient.
After all, Yang Wanli is also a very important and reliable companion to him now, and he naturally doesn't want any accidents to happen to this guy.
Now that there is no way to do it, Wu Liang is much calmer than before.
After thinking like this for a moment, he looked at the other two soldiers who were safe and sound, and asked, "Did you and Yang Wanli enter the ruins of the ancient city together this morning?" ”
"Yes."
Two soldiers stepped forward, pointed to a large gap in the city wall, and said, "It was from that place that we entered the ruins of the ancient city, when Yang Bochang walked in front and the three of us walked behind, less than two feet apart. ”
"So, after entering the ancient city, you have been together all the time?"
Wu Liang nodded and asked again.
"At the beginning, we were together, but then Uncle Yang didn't think it was fast enough, so he divided us into two teams, he took this brother to the southern half to investigate, and the two of us went to the northern half to investigate."
The two soldiers said, "After about half an hour, the four of us met here again, and the two of us didn't find anything strange in the northern half, and Yang Bochang didn't find anything in the southern half, so everyone exchanged information with each other, and then went to Qiancheng County to inquire about the news, and we didn't find anything unusual about Yang Bochang and this brother along the way......"
"The southern half?"
Hearing this, it's not just Wu Liang.
Dian Wei, Bai Jingjing, Yu Ji and these two soldiers also had some speculations.
The two soldiers who went to the northern half of the ancient city ruins to investigate were safe and sound, but Yang Wanli and the soldier who went to the southern half to investigate were "evil" together...... The answer seems to be on the horizon!
It's just that what the problem is is still a mystery that cannot be ignored.
After all, Yang Wanli is no ordinary scout.
This guy has a lot of experience in this area, but it is difficult to escape his eyes if there is a slight abnormality in the process of exploration, he will definitely be extra careful, and he will definitely report the most detailed information to Wu Liang after he returns, and even be able to give his own inferences or judgments.
But this time, Yang Wanli did not mention anything abnormal to Wu Liang after he went back.
This means that even Yang Wanli himself doesn't know what he is doing or where he is "evil"......
If so, the ruins of this ancient city are even more terrifying.
Now it is really impossible to enter rashly, otherwise if the people who enter again are unknowingly "evil", things will become even bigger.
I thought about it for a moment.
"Think about it carefully, did Yang Wanli and this brother mention to you what they had come into contact with in the southern half of the ancient city ruins, or what they had done? Even the most ordinary things, as long as he has told you, must repeat to me in every detail. ”
Wu Liang got to the bottom of it again.
"Like...... Gone, right? ”
A soldier rolled his eyes and thought for a long time, then finally shook his head and said, "Since coming out of the ruins of the ancient city, Uncle Yang has been telling us how to disguise and find out the news after entering the county seat of Qiancheng, and what matters to pay attention to so as not to attract attention, and have never said anything about the ruins of the ancient city. ”
"Yes, I recalled it carefully, and then Uncle Yang really never said anything about this place again, and neither did this brother who walked with him."
Another soldier was also very sure.
In this way, the clues will be completely broken, and this "evil spirit" incident must be investigated from the beginning......
It was at this time.
"Hmm......"
Yang Wanli and the evil soldier suddenly let out a muffled snort.
The two of them turned around unhurriedly, and then walked unhurriedly in the direction they came.
Not far ahead, a small earthen wall more than half a meter high blocked their way, and the two men were able to raise their legs and step up with precision, and then jumped down very steadily......
In other words, although they no longer know people and have completely lost their sense of pain, they can even be exempted from such strange things as "Lost Soul Incense" and "Soul Returning Incense".
But in fact, there is still some basic understanding.
At the very least, you shouldn't fall off a cliff while walking and fall to your death, or drown yourself in a waterhole.
What kind of reason is this, Wu Liang also can't make a reasonable explanation, and he doesn't even have any ideas.
"Childe, what should we do now?"
Seeing Yang Wanli and the soldier leave without looking back, Yu Ji couldn't help but come over and ask.
"Keeping up, of course, to see where they're going, and to protect them if necessary."
Wu Liang said.
According to Han Cheng's previous statement, at this time, Yang Wanli and the soldier should be going back to their "home", and then honestly stay at home for a few days, and then they will lose their traces inexplicably......
Wu Liang didn't quite understand what he was doing at home for a few days, maybe it was to give the "evil qi" in his body time to develop, so as to further control the bitter master?
As for the ruins of the ancient city of Qidu.
Before figuring out what was going on between Yang Wanli and that soldier, Wu Liang would not act rashly.
……
Sure enough.
Yang Wanli and the soldier walked in front, Wu Liang and the others followed, and the group really walked back to the hidden valley where the Wanren army was temporarily stationed.
This once again surprised Wu Liang.
It stands to reason that everyone's definition of "home" is different, so in this situation of not knowing whether they can still think, everyone will go to a different place.
However, Yang Wanli and the soldier returned to the place where they had been stationed for less than one night in this situation.
Is it possible to speculate:
People who have "fallen for evil" actually have a certain degree of consciousness.
At least some subconscious know where you should go back?
With such doubts, Wu Liang continued to observe Yang Wanli and the soldier......
After arriving at the camp, Yang Wanli and the soldier immediately fell into the same way they had been in front of the ruins of the ancient city of Qidu, standing in place without saying a word, looking at the soldiers of the Qiangren Army who came up to greet them with a confused and unfamiliar expression.
Seeing that these two people were silent as if they were stupid, the soldiers were naturally puzzled.
Wu Liang stepped forward to disperse these soldiers, and called several officers accompanying him into the tent to briefly explain the situation of the two, and then asked them to vacate a separate tent for Yang Wanli to live with the soldier.
And instructed them to send people to take care of them in shifts 24 hours a day.
Naturally, it is not an ordinary caretaker, not only to tie the two of them firmly to the bed, but also to feed and drink regularly, and to stay awake at all times, as long as Yang Wanli and the soldier have any abnormal situation, they must report to Wu Liang as soon as possible.
Wu Liang was worried.
Worried that Yang Wanli and the soldier would suddenly disappear without a trace after a few days, as Yang Wanli and the soldier said to Han Cheng, and there would be no one alive or dead, so he had to keep track of the situation of the two of them at all times.
During this time, he would continue to try to wake up the two of them.
And if those methods don't work...... Maybe as long as you can control them and don't let them run around, they will naturally recover after that time.
At least that's what Wu Liang hoped in his heart.
……
On the first day, Yang Wanli and the soldier did not move.
Wu Liang also did not find a way to wake them up.
……
On the second day, Yang Wanli and the soldier still did not move.
Wu Liang still hadn't found a way to wake them up.
……
Day 3.
Yang Wanli and the soldier suddenly went berserk, shouting and screaming in the tent all day.
The soldiers of the Hamp people went to feed and drink them, but they no longer cooperated, and they did not drink a sip of water or eat a mouthful of food all day, but they were still very energetic.
"If what Han Cheng said is true, I'm afraid these two people will disappear inexplicably in the near future......"
Wu Liang was very worried that something like this would happen.
There are many people during the day, and any special situations can be detected in time.
Therefore, Wu Liang specially instructed Dian Wei, Bai Jingjing and Yu Ji to make up for a little more sleep during the day, and after dinner, they came with him to the camp where Yang Wanli and the soldier were guarded in person.
In this way, if there is any abnormality at night, Wu Liang can find it as soon as possible and deal with it accordingly.
Even if there was the slightest possibility of waking up Yang Wanli and that soldier, he would definitely do his best to do it......
It's night.
Yang Wanli and the soldier finally fell asleep.
Wu Liang and Bai Jingjing sat in the tent and played backgammon to pass the time, while Dian Wei and Yu Ji watched the game from the sidelines.
In fact, Yu Ji had already dozed off on Dian Wei's shoulder, and the energy of an old man of his age was naturally not as good as that of a young man, so Wu Liang didn't call him.
And so on until the time of the child.
"The ...... of the Rope"
Yang Wanli and the soldier suddenly heard a slight noise.
"Attention!"
Wu Liang immediately put down the chess pieces in his hand and got up to check.
It doesn't matter.
I saw that Yang Wanli was twisting his body desperately like a snake at the moment, and the joints of his limbs seemed to be dislocated, which made the scalp numb, which looked so weird!
Even, with the continuous writhing, his body is still shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye!
