Chapter Eighty-Six: The Burial Pit
Wei Zhengxun couldn't help but feel annoyed when he saw that a junior dared to speak to him in such a tone, and said lightly, "Then I don't know." ”
Liao Xingyun still didn't give up, "If it weren't for you, I would have caught Emperor Gao a long time ago!" ”
Wei Zhengxun immediately grabbed Liao Xingyun's words, "Catch Emperor Gao? The founding emperor of my dynasty is something you can catch casually? Don't insult my reputation as Emperor Gao, I don't care where you got this strip of cloth, I said, Emperor Gao can't appear in this Qianran Underground Palace, if you see it, it's an illusion! ”
Liao Xingyun was about to speak, He Qingping seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief, stepped forward, and whispered to Liao Xingyun, "Wei Xiangye is an old-timer, we should speak politely, not to mention that the shadow just now just looks alike, none of us can conclude that this is Emperor Gao, what's more, you forgot the hallucinations we encountered when we were on the fourth layer?" ”
Wei Zhengxun didn't seem to want to delay any longer, waved his sleeves, and snorted lightly, "You are already at the limit of reaching this sixth layer, give up early, otherwise I don't know what you will encounter..."
Liao Xingyun was still a little annoyed, "You delayed us so much, and you didn't have an explanation, so why did you leave?" Just as she was about to catch up, He Qingping was still in front of her, and said, "Wei Xiangye is old and virtuous, those of us who are juniors must at least give a minimum of respect, so don't be entangled anymore." ”
Liao Xingyun remembered He Qingping's delay just now, and was still a little annoyed, and glanced at He Qingping, "You are not a good person." ”
He Qingping shrugged his shoulders and was noncommittal.
He Nuo and Zhao Mingzhao were about to come over, when they suddenly heard Ying Lingyue's voice next to them, "Come and see, what is this?" ”
He Nuo looked back, but saw that Ying Lingyue's whole body was submerged in darkness, and he could only see some faint outlines, but his voice came very clearly.
He Nuo hesitated for a while, and was about to follow the sound towards the darkness, but Zhao Mingzhao pulled He Nuo and said, "Don't worry about this moment, take everyone, let's go together." ”
Although Ying Lingyue's voice was not loud, it was very clear, He Qingping had already retreated quickly with Liao Xingyun, and He Nuo noticed that Liao Xingyun was still dragging the rag.
"Hurry up! Don't miss the opportunity! He Qingping urged, and immediately took a step and took the lead.
When He Nuo saw this scene, he thought of He Qingping's grinding appearance just now, and couldn't help but secretly think, "As long as it doesn't involve the secret of Emperor Gao's shadow, He Qingping is still quite reliable." ”
Soon He Nuo disappeared into this darkness, although he couldn't see the road in front of him clearly, but he could clearly feel that this was a straight road, and at the end of this straight road, he happened to see Ying Lingyue.
I saw Ying Lingyue pointing to the other side with her finger and said, "Look..."
Then, He Nuo saw a disgusting scene, there seemed to be a funeral pit in front of him, the wall emitted a blue faint light, and there was a circle of stones piled up in the distance, and you could see that the outermost pile of stones was arranged very neatly, which should be artificially piled up, and the inner circle was more messy, as if it had been destroyed, and there were piles of skeletons in the middle of the stones, the remaining skeletons were very incomplete, and many places were scattered, but the most disgusting thing was that the skeleton frame was around a puddle, and there were some rotten things floating on the water, There was also a foul smell.
He Nuo hurriedly covered his nose and stepped back, and then gasped for breath. I can't help but start admiring Ying Lingyue, such a stink can last for so long.
But Ying Lingyue pointed at these skeletons and said, "Did you find anything wrong?" ”
He Nuo took a few steps forward, everyone looked at it for a while, but they didn't see any clues, and these stenches were very strong, every time I looked at it for a while, the smell made my head dizzy, so I had to take a few steps back and breathe for a while before I could continue to watch.
Only Ying Lingyue seems to be born with antibodies to such a smell, and she always insists on being there, and she doesn't take even a step back. Seeing everyone's behavior like this, Ying Lingyue shook her head and said, "Have you noticed that the posture of these skeletons is a little strange?" ”
He Qingping held on a little longer and asked, "This seems to be a burial pit, and the people inside were artificially killed." ”
Ying Lingyue nodded, shook her head again, and said, "These people were artificially killed, but they were not ordinary burials. Ying Lingyue sighed, "There should have been a small war here. ”
"War?" He Nuo was a little puzzled, what kind of war would happen in the underground of this Qianran Underground Palace?
Ying Lingyue is not a person who likes to sell guanzi, so she immediately explained, pointing to the skeleton and said, "You look at the skeleton of these skeletons, what's the difference?" ”
He Qingping's observation was already very careful, and he said, "Some of these skeletons still have weapons left in their chests, and some of the bones in their chests are broken, obviously they have been hit by some heavy object. ”
Ying Lingyue nodded and analyzed, "If it is a funeral, it is generally the first to tie the person up and give a fatal blow from behind, and these skeletons are all injured in the chest, and the positions of the injuries are different, and some of them also have injuries on their arms, and it seems that they died after being attacked very much, so this is more like a war!" ”
Hearing such a careful analysis, He Nuo couldn't help but admire a little, and blurted out, "It's really not simple, so who are the two sides of this war?" ”
Ying Lingyue shook her head, "You can't tell the identity of a person just from the skeleton. I can see that the war depends on me being almost unaffected by this stench, and if you have had enough time to observe and analyse carefully, I am sure you will come to the same conclusion. ”
"Then let's go up and have a look!" He Qingping proposed.
Everyone nodded, and was about to pass through the surrounding stone formations and enter the skull field, when suddenly there was a sound of pounding the wall behind them.
He Qingping immediately said, "Don't worry about that over there, there is a breakthrough here, and there is really no need to waste time for those ethereal voices." ”
However, Liao Xingyun seemed to be still annoyed by He Qingping's delay just now, as soon as he heard him say this, Liao Xingyun did not delay, and quickly rushed towards the source of the sound of beating the wall, He Nuo thought for a while, and had to follow her.
But as soon as he reached the dark opening, the sound of pounding on the wall quickly disappeared, and the figure disappeared.
"What should I do?" Liao Xingyun asked, usually when there are only two, Liao Xingyun will care a lot about He Nuo's idea.
He Nuo pondered for a while and said, "Let's wait here quietly to see if there will be another sound of pounding the wall."
But at this time, the ancient jade engraved with the word wind on He Nuo's chest suddenly trembled, guiding He Nuo to walk in one direction, and He Nuo knew that this place was the cave where a small war broke out.
