[The book continues from the above, and the last book said that the empty mound was full of blood, and the ground was full of blood. When Zhao Liang and Liu Yang were shocked, Mu Qingming took a step forward, and while he turned his back to Liu Yang and Zhao Liang, he quietly opened his eyes to take a closer look at the stone Sumeru seat, but saw that there were traces of seals on it, and when he was about to ask Father Zeng in detail, Father Zeng spoke the truth first. It was brought out that Father Zeng told the origin of the ghost bottle, which was originally a beggar who gave it to Li Dingguo. But I never thought that this thing was too evil and harmed others and was not beneficial to oneself. After Li Dingguo's death, he sealed it in his tomb. I never thought that Wu Sangui would secretly steal it out, and wanted to use this thing to regenerate the demon wind on the land of China. 】

"Beggars?" Mu Qingming muttered quietly, and a hint of suspicion flashed in his eyes.

"Yes, just a lame beggar." In the silent stone room, even the whispered muttering made Father Zeng hear it clearly. Then he nodded, and said: "It was the deep winter of the eleventh year of Yongli, and this beggar came to the camp of the Great Western Army late at night and met Li Dingguo, who had returned to the Southern Ming Dynasty. After the Tao came to his senses, the beggar offered the ghost bottle. ”。

The candle flame in Mu Qingming's hand shook a few times with Father Zeng's words. Suddenly it became green, and then it became blue, and it was not until it settled down that it returned to its original redness.

"The ghost bottle was just offered, and the yin wind suddenly rose out of thin air in the big tent, and the piercing ghost crying wolf howl came one after another, which made Li Dingguo feel sad and indignant."

The beggar told Li Dingguo that there were 50,000 ghost soldiers sealed in the bottle, which could save the southern dynasty from fire and water in times of crisis. and granted Li Dingguo the method to use, and told the other party not to use the ghost bottle until the last resort, and then left. ”

Since then, Li Dingguo has never used a ghost bottle. It's not that he doesn't want to, it's just that he doesn't believe that there can be ghost soldiers in the world. Speaking of this, Father Zeng couldn't help but turn his head slightly and looked at Liu Yang, who was standing beside Mu Qingming.

The place where he was standing, right in the shadows outside the candle flame, no one could see what was in his eyes at this time?

Maybe it's a mockery.

Not long after, the Qing court decided to attack Guizhou in three routes: Pingxi general Wu Sangui and the capital commander Li Guohan led the northern route army to attack from Sichuan, the southern general Zhuo Butai led the southern route to attack from Guangxi, and the Jingkou general Luo Tuo and the university scholar Hong Chengchou led the middle route to attack from Hunan. The Great Western Army was supposed to be-for-tat, but at this time, Li Dingguo was suppressing the rebellion of Wang Ziqi and Guan Youcai in Yongchang, and he had no time to counterattack, resulting in Wu Sangui falling into Zunyi, Luo Tuoke Guiyang and Zhuo Butai occupying Dushan, posing a serious threat to Yunnan. Father Zeng paused, and then said: "The war lasted for several months, and Li Dingguo fell for Hong Chengchou's plan in command. In August, Li Dingguo led his division eastward, and caught up with the rainy season, and the daily journey stopped at 120 miles, and the morale was low. On the contrary, the Qing soldiers got a chance to breathe, and after increasing their strength, they began to attack Yunnan. ”。

When he finished speaking, he looked at Mu Qingming, and said leisurely when his eyes met each other: "As a famous palm eye in Kunming City, you must have read a lot of history books, right?" ”。

"Well, then the Mantars marched to Yunnan, and Li Chengjue died in November of the twelfth year of Yongli. After Li Dingguo learned of this, he personally led the main force of 30,000 people to a decisive battle with the Qing general Zhuo Butai. The two sides set up a battlefield at the mouth of the Yansha River, and the fierce battle of Panjiang began. Mu Qingming bowed slightly, and after seeing Father Zeng signaling him to continue, he clenched his fists and slowly let go, his eyes burst with anger, and he said in a deep voice: "After the Qing army broke through Li Dingguo's Luo Yan and Liangshuijing camps, they wantonly slaughtered the Great Western Army and the local people, and no less than 300,000 or 400,000 soldiers and civilians were killed. However, today, there are still people in the history books who sing the praises of the atrocities of the Manchu Tartars. ”。

However, this did not discourage Li Dingguo, he said......" Mu Qingming said this, and Father Zeng, whose eyes were a little darker, took over again: "The matter has come to this, what else can I say, I will dedicate this loyalty to Daming, and I will die." ”。

"It's a commendable loyalty." When Liu Yang finished speaking, he asked curiously when he stroked his palm: "But what does this have to do with the so-called ghost bottle?" ”。

On 13 December, Li Dingguo returned to Kunming to study the way forward. But on the 15th, the Yongli regime fled westward. By the third day of the first month of the second year, the Qing soldiers had completed their division in Kunming, but they immediately pursued them. In order to protect Emperor Yongli from danger, Li Dingguo ordered the general soldier Jin Tongwu to lead 4,000 troops to protect Emperor Yongli and go straight to Tengyue (Tengchong, Yunnan), and he led 6,000 elite soldiers to stay in Yongchang (Baoshan, Yunnan) to prepare to block. Father Zeng paused for a moment, and his eyes became deeper, as if he was immersed in that past history, and the voice of Jin Ge Iron Horse Buddha sounded in his ears again, echoing; After a long time, he slowly continued: "In February, Wu Sangui chased after Bai Wenxuan in Dali again. The enraged Li Dingguo was determined to defeat the enemy's spirit with all the pursuers, and also planned the last fierce battle of his life. ”。

"So the bloody battle of Mopan Mountain began." Mu Qingming couldn't help but interject.

"Yes, history only records that 'short-handed combat, from Mao to noon, zombies are blocked'. But who knows, Li Dingguo happened to use the ghost bottle in that battle. "Daddy Zeng's face changed, sometimes sad, sometimes angry, sometimes confused; After a few moments, he was shaking again.

Liu Yang and Zhao Liang looked at each other, both seeing the surprise and nervousness in each other's eyes, and a little expectation.

"Daddy, go ahead." Mu Qingming stretched out his hand and gently patted the old man's shoulder.

This action gave Father Zeng great courage, so after slowly calming down, Father Zeng continued: "Because of the help of the ghost soldiers, that battle possessed the Great Western Army, making the Great Western Army more and more courageous. However, because of the tragic situation of the battle, most of the Qing army was killed and wounded, and it had to retreat 30 miles, and the Great Western Army also died more than half of the battle, and its vitality was greatly damaged. The power of the ghost bottle let Li Dingguo know that it was a double-edged sword. The so-called ghost soldiers cannot fight independently, and must possess living people. In addition, when he attacked Burma and snatched out the Yongli Emperor, many of the accompanying soldiers were haggard and sick, and the historical records recorded that it was the water and soil not to obey the army's hunger and epidemic, but in fact, Li Dingguo knew that it was the sequelae after being possessed by the ghost. And the more sergeants died, the more powerful the ghost bottle became, so much so that General Li Dingguo, who got along with it every day, had nightmares every night. So there was a history book on Li Dingguo's repair watch to the heavens, praying and saying, 'If the general trend has gone, I hope God will let me Li Dingguo die alone, and no longer affect the army and the people.' '. ”。

As soon as these words came out, Mu Qingming and the three of them were all shocked. I didn't expect that ghost bottles and ghost soldiers really existed, and they could be so harmful.

Even Liu Yang, who had sworn not to believe in gods and ghosts before, opened his lips slightly, but he was so shocked that he wanted to speak.

"The souls of all the sergeants who died because of this will be sucked into the bottle, and along with their unwillingness and resentment, nourish this ghost bottle." Father Zeng's trembling voice was a little more vicissitudes and desolation: "What's even more terrifying is that three months later, there will be another plague epidemic in the army, and many people and horses will die of diseases. In fact, where did the plague come from, it was just that the ghost bottle was getting stronger and stronger because of sucking too much resentment, and the powerful resentment that it emitted caused the centaur to die of illness. ”。

"How does it feel like Shan Man's Soul Eater?" Mu Qingming lowered his head slightly and thought for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he muttered to himself leisurely.

As far as he knew, Shanman's soul devouring technique was to take the souls of others as his own, devour them and strengthen his own soul and spiritual consciousness. It's an extremely weird and bloody technique.

The reason why we say bloody is because only by eating the soul of the person who has killed someone can the soul and spiritual consciousness of the caster be nourished.

But if a bottle can perform the spell on its own, it only means that the bottle is connected to the caster, and that bottle is just a medium for the practitioner.

It carries the caster's Soul Eater, due to the close connection of the caster.

Mu Qingming originally thought that the bronze ghost bottle was not just a legend, but now it seems that it is really a legend, but obviously the ghost bottle that Daddy Zeng said is very different from the ghost bottle in the myth he knew.

The myth does not mention the presence of ghost soldiers in the bottle, nor does it mention that the bottle can make humans and animals sick. Judging from the part of Daddy Zeng's narration, the so-called bottle is not the same as the legendary bottle he knows.

"Yes, it's Soul Eater, and many years later those of us who guard the bottle know it's Soul Eater. And in the beginning, the beggar offering a bottle was a conspiracy. If Li Dingguo had used the bottle earlier, Nanming's demise would have been earlier. It's just that thousands of calculations have not been calculated, and the so-called beggars have not been calculated, and Li Dingguo will use the bottle after a long time. After a moment of silence, Father Zeng's desolate and vicissitudes of life voice sounded again in the stone room: "Subsequently, the last military god of the Ming Dynasty (Li Dingguo) also suddenly fell ill, and finally died in Mengla, the ghost bottle is too harmful, so he sealed it in his tomb." The story should have ended here, and Nanming's resentful spirits should have been silent in the cold and dark tomb, but they didn't expect Wu Sangui to learn about it. ”。

Wu Sangui secretly confirmed the existence of the ghost bottle, and this news gave Mu Ying, who wanted to be the Qing Dynasty, the courage to rebel for the little fat man of the Mantar "Shizhen Yunnan". Father Zeng, who clenched his fists again, gritted his teeth and said: "So he sent someone to Mengla quietly, dug up General Li's tomb at night, and stole the ghost bottle." wanted to use this thing to defeat the Qing court. ”。

But Wu Sangui didn't calculate that although Mrs. Chen was born as a singer, she has a different sense of truth from ordinary people. So not long after, this bottle was quietly stolen from Wu Sangui by Mrs. Chen. Speaking of this, Father Zeng raised his eyebrows, and a trace of joy flashed on his face, as if he was watching Wu Sangui being cheated by a thief.

"Mrs. Chen? Chen Yuanyuan? Mu Qingming combined with the murals he had seen before, and couldn't help muttering.

"Exactly, Mrs. secretly knows that this thing is evil, and she is afraid that Wu Sangui will use this to raise swords and soldiers again, trapping the people of the world in fire and water. So he secretly invited Taoist masters to build this stone room and seal the ghost bottle in it. And our family is the one who has guarded this stone chamber and the ghost bottle for generations. Even if Madame is no longer there, our Zeng family will continue to guard the ghost bottle from being discovered by outsiders. Father Zeng nodded.

"Presumably, your ancestors have also received the favor of their wife." Mu Qingming said and turned his head slightly, glanced at the stone carving pattern on the stone platform, and a little admiration appeared in his eyes.

Chen Yuanyuan was just a weak woman, but when she learned that this ghost bottle was too evil, she resolutely stole the ghost bottle and sealed it underground.

"Young Master Mu, the old man begs you." At the same time, Father Zeng suddenly bent his knees and knelt down in front of Mu Qingming without hesitation: "No matter what, please help me." ”。

What does Daddy Zeng want Mu Qingming to do for him? Where will the ghost bottle go? Find out what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown.
