Chapter 91: The Abominable Natives
The discovery in front of him was shocking, Yu turned over the mound in his mouth, why was there a corpse inside?
"Lord, this person was shot through the thigh by an arrow, and then his head was cut off from behind, and there are more than two murderers!" Jiang Qin carefully examined the corpse, then looked up and said.
"My lord, from the decay of the corpses, the time should not exceed two hundred years. It's just that this ancient tomb has a history of 400 years, and the identity of the owner of this corpse has to be doubted. "The earlier scribes also reported immediately after the survey.
This scribe Li Ming knew that he was from a poor family, and he used to be a captain for a period of time in order to work. It was precisely because of his expertise that Li Ming brought him over, and by the way, he could help himself guard against some traps or something.
As for Jiang Qin's discovery, Li Ming also saw it. The deceased had an arrow wound on the left thigh bone, and the arrow was directly inserted into it, but it did not penetrate the bone, but he had no way to wait for the wound to heal, after all, the marks from the cervical vertebrae should have been cut off by someone from behind him with a sword, except in the case of left-handers.
Judging from the way he died, as Jiang Qin said, he was engaged in a battle with multiple enemies, and then he was shot in the thigh by an archer who was lying in ambush nearby, and maybe one or two people were holding him back, and finally he was killed by someone who suddenly burst out behind him.
The problem is that he has nothing on him, nothing to prove his identity.
The scribe's words reminded him of Yu Xuan's words, two hundred years ago, one of his ancestors, didn't he take advantage of Wang Mang's usurpation of the throne to restore the country with the help of the things in the clothed tomb? According to this calculation, it is very likely that this corpse is his ancestor!
The question arises, why was he killed, and who killed him?
"You've been on the island for so long, and you can see traces of other people's activities?" Li Ming asked.
"Some traces of a long time ago were found, but no traces of living people were found." Jiang Qin replied.
"It's not good, go back with something immediately, the situation is not good!" Li Ming's face suddenly became cloudy, and he shouted.
Before they could go out, the gate was suddenly closed, and they were shut inside. How could Li Ming let the people outside succeed, shouting a spear and sweeping out, using the army-breaking marksmanship he had just learned.
The internal qi was reduced by sixty percent all of a sudden, which shows that this martial art is really a big consumer of internal qi. However, the result was also obvious, the iron door at the entrance was directly blasted open by Li Ming. Outside, two natives were trying to carry a large rock to the entrance, and if they succeeded, everyone would have to be trapped in the mound of clothes.
"The Lord is brave!" Seeing that the heavy iron door was actually blasted open with a move, Jiang Qin and the others couldn't help but shout in admiration.
"Leave the tongue and kill the others!" Li Ming shouted, and the spear had already swept the two natives to the ground, and it was estimated that they had fainted, at least not dead.
Before I knew it, there were more than 100 natives around. It doesn't look like a native, they all wear linen shorts, and they look very similar to the Han people. Li Ming immediately guessed their identities, which were the five hundred boys and girls who had been prepared to guard the tomb in the past.
In general, it may be regarded as a misunderstanding, after all, he did not greet them after landing on the island. It's just that Li Ming thinks that they should be killed because of the corpses in the clothed mound.
The patriarch did not return, but his body was in a mound of clothes. Li Ming didn't think he wouldn't communicate with these grave keepers, but he was still dead! The only explanation, in the case of these natives, is that they killed him!
Hearing Li Ming's order, Xu Chu immediately burst out, picked up the stone with one hand, and threw it towards those native archers. Two natives avoided it and were directly smashed in the head.
"It's just Grandpa Xu, I'm not happy!" Xu Chu followed behind Li Ming, and he also burst into cheers at this moment. Before, he was in a weakened state because of seasickness, and his heart was full of unhappiness, but now he wants to vent all his unhappiness.
Just look at him constantly looking for stones, and he threw it directly, and if he was lucky, he naturally avoided it, and if he was unlucky, he would have broken his arm and leg in the most ideal state, and if he was unlucky, he would hang up directly.
With Xu Chu's cover, those natives didn't dare to shoot arrows, Li Ming and Jiang Qin, together with the soldiers of the Guards, suddenly killed them, and immediately killed them all like chopping melons and vegetables.
"Interrogate me, I want to know where their nest is! I want to know everything they know! Li Ming said indignantly.
An hour later, the mouths of these untrained interrogators were finally pried open. It's just that their words carry the native accent of Chu in the pre-Qin period, and no one can understand it except Li Ming.
That's fine, at least I don't have to worry about them knowing about my relationship with Xiang Yu...... Li Ming secretly sighed in his heart.
"Oops, boat! Get back to the fleet now! After a few brief interrogations, Li Ming immediately shouted, and all the staff immediately ran in the direction of the sea boat.
At this moment, on the beach, sure enough, more than 200 people were attacking the warship. Many people have successfully boarded the ship, but Jiang Qin's subordinates, with the help of bed crossbows, are also actively resisting.
"Kill them with me!" Li Ming shouted, and then let out a long howl.
"Moo-meow!" Broken Moon walked out on the deck, staggering and letting out a long roar, as if complaining, complaining that he hadn't recovered yet, what was Li Ming's name or something.
When he saw the enemy who did not belong to the navy, he immediately rushed towards them, and without saying a word, he knocked them out and flew away. Obviously, he, like Xu Chu, is uncomfortable in himself, and someone has to come over to annoy him, he just feels uncomfortable and just wants to vent.
"Well done!" Li Ming shouted, and the spear had already killed those natives. Just looking at his hand is a hurricane marksmanship, the head of the gun is howling, knocking away a lot of surrounding natives, those who are close, but they are directly cut in half by the waist.
Xu Chu is also a real violent element, holding a Zaoyang sledgehammer, in the past it was a hammer, ordinary natives were broken as soon as they were touched, and they were unlucky to be beaten out, and it took a few minutes of pain to swallow the last breath.
"Just with your tricks that can't be put on the stage, are you embarrassed to come out and show ugliness?" Xu Chu didn't say anything, and suddenly he was still unscrupulously laughing there. These natives don't have any opponents for him at all, and he is completely bullying others.
"Run, they're too powerful!" I don't know who shouted, and these natives immediately fled, and after a short time they escaped into the mountains and forests. Now that this place is full of wilderness, it is not easy to pursue them, and Li Ming is also annoyed why he didn't bring the Yue troops over.
"Bring the captives, I'm going to interrogate them myself!" Li Ming looked at the few captives who were tied up, and immediately ordered.
He had to know what had happened two hundred years ago, and even all he needed to know!
