readx;

The ancient battlefield outside the City of Freedom lay thousands of corpses, and the mountains of bones piled up also gave birth to countless scavenging corpses. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Along the way, Ye Zhen encountered thousands of carrion-eating corpses that fed on corpses, either hiding in the ground, or leaning over deep pits, and even some of them were scheming away at those corpses that had long been dried in broad daylight, like hungry wolves, and everywhere they passed, there were cold white bones and metal fragments of weapons and armor left everywhere.

When marching into the depths of the ancient battlefield, Ye Scar suddenly found that a group of scavenging corpses numbering about a thousand appeared in the distance.

Of course, that's not the point.

The point is that this group of scavenging corpses is different from those who haunt the same kind in twos and threes, this group of scavenging corpses actually has a strong self-discipline surname, they are like a human army busy in the windy field, some are using a keen sense of smell to probe the ground, some are responsible for digging up the dead corpses underground, and some are actually guarding nearby, the division of labor is extremely clear, like a tacit understanding of a team of thousands of people.

This strange scene immediately made Ye Zhen stop, he thought for a moment, and quickly hid a hundred meters away from the group of scavenging corpses, calmed down and watched.

It is often a few scavengers with a keen sense of smell to search for the corpse, and when they detect the special smell of the corpse, they will make a few strange noises, and then a group of stronger scavengers will come to excavate it.

With their sword-sharp fingers, the sand-covered ground is as fragile as tofu, and it often takes only a few minutes for a deep pit to appear on the flat ground, and in no moments a few scavengers will jump down the pit and carry out the corpses of the soldiers still wearing rusty armor below...... Unexpectedly, after the dug up corpses of the soldiers were placed on the ground, none of the scavengers rushed up to fight for the delicious food, only to see that they arranged these corpses together in an orderly manner, and after arranging a few scavengers to guard them, they were busy looking for other trophies...... "Strange thing, what are they doing?" Seeing such a strange picture, Ye Zhen's eyes narrowed, and he immediately became interested, he didn't alarm them, just stood in place and continued to observe without a trace.

"Wow!"

After about ten minutes, I heard a strange cry with ecstasy suddenly sounding in the group of carrion-eating corpses, and then the thousands of carrion-eating corpses actually put down what they were doing in unison and rushed to the source of the sound.

"What's going on?" Seeing this, Ye Zhen was stunned for a moment, and then followed cautiously, and watched curiously through the gap twenty meters away from the scavenging corpse group.

It was a gray pit with a diameter of about three meters, and unlike other pits, there was a quaint coffin made of bronze in the center of this pit.

The bronze coffin was more than two meters long and about half a meter wide, and was lying quietly in the ground more than three meters deep. Next to the bronze coffin and on the lid of the coffin, there were more than a dozen scavengers with gray claws stained with gray mud were making strange cries of surprise, looking at their ecstatic facial expressions, it was as if they had found not a coffin, but a pile of glittering gold!

"Strange... On this ancient battlefield, the soldiers who died were generally buried directly into the ground, and there were even many bones exposed on the battlefield like this, and there was not even a person to collect the corpses...... But how could there be a coffin here, and it was a bronze coffin with a lot of cost...... It seems that there is a good chance that there is some great big man in it! "Just at a glance, Ye Zhen can see the extraordinaryness of this bronze coffin." However, even if he was a big man in life, isn't it just a corpse after death? I don't understand what these scavenging corpses are excited about, is there any difference in the taste between the corpses of big people and ordinary soldiers? ”

Ye Zhen wanted to rush forward and open the lid of the coffin to see what kind of secret was hidden in the bronze coffin, but at the moment, thousands of scavenging corpses gathered together, even if he broke in and fought hard, I am afraid that he would not be able to get any benefits.

Helpless, Ye Zhen had to retreat to his original position first, and then move.

The sky was still gloomy, only the bronze coffin reflected a touch of green in the dimness, after the excitement, one after another, more than a dozen scavenging corpses jumped into the pit, and then nearly twenty scavenging corpses exerted force at the same time, and actually lifted the heavy bronze coffin!

I have to say that the strength of the scavenging corpses is indeed terrifying, after the twenty or so scavenging corpses below lifted the bronze coffin to a position parallel to the ground, dozens of strong scavenging corpses that had already been prepared on the ground immediately stretched out their dry and powerful arms, and steadily connected the bronze coffin, and then united to move outward, and soon placed the bronze coffin weighing 10,000 catties on the ground!

Airplanes!

The bronze coffin landed on the thick ground, and immediately let out a low muffled sound, and to Ye Zhen's surprise, these scavengers did not touch it after lifting the bronze coffin to the ground.

On the contrary, when the bronze coffin was unearthed, I only heard a strange cry of impatience from the group of scavenging corpses, and then thousands of scavenging corpses actually began to organize and carry the loot and left the place in a mighty way.

“…… Where are they going? Seeing a dry carrion corpse lifting the bronze coffin and preparing to go home, Ye Zhen was immediately stunned, and immediately his figure flashed, and he followed closely.

Thousands of carrion-eating corpses marched in a southeasterly direction, carrying heavy bronze coffins and hundreds of soldiers' corpses.

Looking at their orderly formation and skillful pace, Ye Zhen could be sure that this was not the first time that these guys who specialized in the work of the dead had done such a thing, they were like an organized and disciplined army, and they would retreat as soon as they received a lot of loot, and they looked extremely skilled and unjerky.

The gray sky cast a shadow on the ancient battlefield, and the wind howled angrily on the ancient battlefield, like a fierce beast roaring, and anyone who walked alone on this murderous frontier would involuntarily feel some palpitations.

After following the group of scavenging corpses and walking in the southeast direction for about half an hour, just when Ye Scar was a little impatient, he saw that the formation of scavenging corpses in front of him suddenly stopped in front of a huge oval pit.

After the long dragon stopped, hundreds of scavenging corpses in front of him jumped into the oval pit, and then those scavenging corpses carrying corpses and bronze coffins jumped down until the ground returned to calm, and it only took two or three minutes for thousands of scavenging corpses to disappear.

Seeing that all the scavenging corpses disappeared, Ye Scar followed without hesitation, and came to the oval-shaped pit, only to see that this was actually a large-scale entrance to the tomb, because it came in time, Ye Scar could even hear the footsteps of those scavenging corpses at the back...... "I don't know what they carried the bronze coffin in, no matter, follow up and see ......it first" Without too much hesitation, Ye Scar got up and jumped, and jumped into the pit like a light ape, following up with those groups of scavenging corpse dragons.
