Chapter 11: A Nest of Snakes and Rats
This is the largest dragon point hunting activity in history, and in the entire history, there is really no saying which dynasty was forced to rely on qi practitioners to use such a method. Use dragon qi to fill the vacancy of dragon qi in the world to take the road of saving the country with a curve, how to say it, in the eyes of this group of qi practitioners. So far, no one knows that they came here to hunt dragons in order to use dragon qi to make the Empress Dowager Cixi immortal, and they are still thinking, how to use the dragons here to inject into the Qingxi Tomb?
Guo Zhongyong, as the spokesperson of the imperial court, was also a person similar to the commander-in-chief of this operation, even if the thirty-six masters of the dragon search point thought that there was no need to catch the evil dragon here, they had to obey the order. Anyway, something really happened, even if the court blamed it, there was naturally Guo Zhongyong on it, and their group of people came to do things for the court, it was definitely not in vain, at least Guo Zhongyong was very good to them, and he sent a whole box of gold before leaving, so this operation made these people do their best. became, not only can it fall into a reputation of saving the world and danger, even if it fails, it can be regarded as worrying about the world first, right?
Therefore, no one said that they would really offend this person who may have mastered the skill of swallowing small dragons, they think that Guo Zhongyong's method is to use the big dragon of Xiling in the Qing Dynasty to swallow one small dragon after another, and use this method to continue the dragon vein of the entire Qing Dynasty. Only Guo Zhongyong will, at least that's what they see in their eyes, and there is another aspect, that is, Guo Zhongyong is their financier. their leadership.
Therefore, even if it was a quarrel, they still marched along this mountain range, and set up camp here, before entering the mountain, the people here even understood that this village with a broken tail, the mountain behind it, has indeed had a legend of a dragon since ancient times.
In fact, sometimes it can correspond to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, that is, to look at the mountains and find the dragon, and ask the legend to find clues. So at the beginning, when the large army was stationed in this broken tail village, those qi practitioners visited the old people here and got affirmation, and even these old people said that in the previous legends, many people found here, and they all said that this mountain was a big dragon vein, but after they traveled all over the mountain, most of them were gone, why? Because those people who came to the dragon point before, when they saw a cross-section on the other side of the mountain range, they all had the same idea as these qi practitioners, that is, this was a dragon vein layout of a sword immortal. They all gave up this dragon vein with unparalleled main momentum but broken tail. As much as you can.
There are even people who come to the village to instruct: "It's true that there is a dragon vein here, but because of the broken tail, not only can you not raise your qi, you must not bury the ancestors in it, if you really bury the ancestors, there may be bad consequences." ”
So the people of this broken-tailed village can be said to be surviving with a big dragon vein, but they don't dare to really bury their ancestors in it, but the dragon vein or something, for them, is actually a very vague concept, these people asked them, saying what can be done about the dragon vein, these people in the village said: "What dragon vein, we really don't feel anything, but in this mountain, there are many snakes, there are really many, and these snakes are very poisonous, as long as they say bite, they are absolutely incurable, before, No one on our side really dares to enter the mountain, not to mention that there are medicinal herbs everywhere in this mountain, but no one dares to do it! ”
"I didn't dare before, but now, I dare now?" Someone asked.
The old man who was asked smiled and said, "Don't hide it from the official, you really dare now, why?" Because in the past few years, suddenly there are a large number of yellow skins, to say that it is a nest of snakes and rats, these weasels, not rats, these don't know where to come from, as soon as they come to work with the snakes here, it seems that the two parties are natural enemies, we often pick up snake corpses in the mountain pass, as well as dead yellow skins, and it is a little money, and later, they both sides have stopped a little, yellow skins are rare, snakes are not rare, so that the villagers dare to enter the mountain, but until now, I still don't dare to go too deep, inside, it is said that there is a big demon who has a world. ”
These dragon hunters are in pain, there are not only snakes in this, but also countless yellow skins recently, and a war broke out between them? Is it the war between the yellow skin and the snake? This is a little unbelievable, could it be that these things have become refined, come here to seize territory?
After asking about nothing, the vanguard went into the mountains to explore the terrain, because there might be danger hidden in it, so at the beginning, there were definitely a lot of people who went, as many as 500 people, but after about a week, these 500 people did not come back.
Five hundred people, none of them came back, you must know that the people brought by Guo Zhongyong at that time were all elite soldiers, even if they encountered the siege of snakes and yellow skins after entering the mountain, it is impossible to say that none of them can come back.
All of a sudden, some people panicked, five hundred people is definitely not a small number, and people are just gone? And quietly? Therefore, many people's eyes are aimed at Guo Zhongyong, this place was brought by Guo Zhongyong, he must have an understanding of this place, this is a place where five hundred people can disappear, doesn't Guo Zhongyong need to explain something?
This kind of thing is the more I think about it, the more angry I become, what did Guo Zhongyong do after coming to this place? He didn't do anything, he was in the courtyard where he lived almost every day, he didn't go out of the gate, he didn't go into the mountain, he didn't care about anything, he didn't pay attention to it, as if he didn't care about himself.
In the face of the people who questioned him, Guo Zhongyong smiled and said: "It's okay, it's only 500 people, I brought it, but there are 8,000 elite soldiers, what are you afraid of?" ”
"What the hell is it that kills them?" These people were also embarrassed to say too harsh things to Guo Zhongyong, so they could only ask like this.
"When they come back, just ask them yourself." Guo Zhongyong said mysteriously.
--These, it's these people's turn to be strange, you must know that this group of people who came this time have a specialization in the art industry, they are all masters in dragon hunting, not Taoist warlocks and the like, they are proficient in dragon hunting, not casting spells to subdue demons, Guo Zhongyong said this, they really didn't understand: Aren't these people all dead? Will they be able to come back?
"Yes, definitely back." Guo Zhongyong said that he seemed to be very sure, and it definitely made people want to slap him twice.
"When will I be back??" They asked.
"The night of the full moon. I'll let them come back, we want to go to that place, and I'll ask them to show the way. Guo Zhongyong said lightly, but I don't know why, when others heard his words, they all felt a burst of creepy, this young man who looked clean, he really looked so harmless to humans and animals? And why does it feel like he's so scheming?
They came back to lead the way, what does that mean? Could it be that these five hundred people, whether they are dead or alive, are all made by Guo Zhongyong?
But Guo Zhongyong is their leader after all, and they can't say anything, no matter what happens, they will understand after the full moon night, right? From the next day, Guo Zhongyong ordered his subordinates to build a high platform, sit on the south and face north, and make something similar to an altar. After it was done, Guo Zhongyong didn't see any action, it seemed that he was also waiting, waiting for the arrival of the full moon night.
Time flies, and it really comes a few days before the full moon night, these people feel nervous again, and more than ten days have passed, none of these people have come back, which is very obvious that there is more than one bad luck. Guo Zhongyong has a way to get them back, is this going to say, recruit the corpse back, and ask the corpse to show them the way?
Just the day before the full moon night, Guo Zhongyong finally walked out of the courtyard where he had been staying for almost half a month, and the first order he gave was to say that tomorrow morning, the villagers should avoid it, no matter what sound they heard, they should not go out.
This makes these people who can't catch ghosts even more nervous, corpses are not terrible, five hundred corpses, what is the concept?
