Chapter 53: Flowers on the other side of the bridge
Boom...... Bang bang ...... Bang bang bang......
The bullets from the 38 Cover rifle struck the Blood Ghoul.
But the bullet passed through the blood ghoul's body, leaving only a small black hole, which didn't seem to cause any pain to the blood ghoul, but made the blood ghoul scream even more hideously.
To be honest, this has a sense of déjà vu against zombies.
But these blood ghouls are definitely more ferocious than the zombies seen in the movies, and they are extremely fast, and they will drag people down the river of blood if they grab people with bullets.
At the same time, more and more blood ghouls gathered in the blood river, but they did not rush ashore, but rolled excitedly in the blood river, stirring the whole blood river with a rattling sound, and the thick dark red blood water splashed on both banks, bringing a great psychological pressure to people.
"His grandmother's, the gun is not used, change to a big knife, and cut at the neck!"
Jin Wuming saw the situation, found out what the problem was, and instantly yelled again, and at the same time didn't have time to put away the gun, so he simply put the gun on the ground and pulled out the melee broadsword he was carrying on his back.
It is said that it is a broadsword, because it is mainly for close combat, so it is only sixty or seventy centimeters long, and it looks like it should be forged of steel, and the blade of the broadsword is reflected in the green glow, and the feeling is sharp and cold.
The moment he drew the broadsword, it fell directly on the neck of a blood ghoul.
The head of the blood ghoul was directly cut off, like a leather ball rolling on the ground a few meters away.
Although the headless blood ghoul was still moving, it was like a headless fly, completely losing its direction, and Jin Wuming continued to slash down from the middle.
This big knife is really sharp, from the moment Jin Wuming slashed down, you can even hear the sound of the blade splitting the bones, directly splitting the blood ghoul's body in half, there are no internal organs in the body, it is completely a dried 'salted fish'.
It seems that all that drives this body is the head of the blood ghoul.
Seeing that Jin Wusheng's killing technique worked, his subordinates raised their knives to follow suit, and slashed at the blood ghouls.
More blood ghouls boiled in the river of blood and did not come ashore, so Jin Wu's hundreds of subordinates dealt with the three or five subordinates on the shore, using the word 'siege', and they were already very worthy of them.
Why didn't more blood ghouls roll and roar in the river of blood, but from time to time they pulled their long, dark red arms ashore in an attempt to drag people into the river of blood?
Zhao Yang looked again at the blood ghoul who had just been thrown out a few meters away with his Luoyang shovel.
Just look at the bloody ghoul when he rushed towards him again, the wrinkled skin on his body quickly cracked, especially the original dark red on his face gradually turned black, and it also showed a network of rapid cracking, until the finally cracked skin turned out, like popcorn, completely bursting, and finally fell in front of Zhao Yang with a 'poof', and there was no more reaction.
When Zhao Yang saw this scene, he instantly understood in his heart and was overjoyed.
This blood ghoul must have been soaked in blood water for thousands of years, and its body functions have been completely dependent on blood water, and if exposed to the air for a long time, the water in the body will be quickly evaporated and weathered, which is more exaggerated than a fish that cannot do without water.
Therefore, the blood ghouls who were tumbling in the blood river did not dare to rush up, only occasionally stretched out their arms, and then quickly retracted them.
If that's the case, it's much easier.
"Jin Dashuai! These blood ghouls don't dare to leave the Blood River for a long time, so let your men stay as far away as possible! ”
Zhao Yang shouted at Jin Wusheng.
Before Jin Wuming could speak, his subordinates listened to Zhao Yang's words, and after eliminating the three or five blood ghouls, they all withdrew as far away as possible towards the blood river.
"Brother Zhao, since these blood ghouls don't dare to leave the Blood River for a long time, can we cross the bridge?"
Jin Wuming looked at the two- or three-meter-high arched bridge that was in the middle of the Blood River leading to the opposite bank, and locked his eyebrows, looked at Zhao Yang and asked.
If according to the first thinking of normal people, since there are corpses in the blood river, then this blood river bridge can definitely become a means to prevent tomb robbers.
But Zhao Yang didn't think so, first of all, the bridge was very high, with nine stairs on both sides, and there were guardrails on both sides, if it was really a bridge for blood ghouls, it would be impossible to build it so high.
It is more likely that this bridge only represents nine plus nine and ninety-one, and stepping on this bridge and crossing this river of blood is equivalent to stepping into eighteen layers of hell!
"Jin Dashuai, let your brothers be smart, this bridge should be able to cross!"
Zhao Yang nodded, holding the Luoyang shovel tightly in his hand, and was the first to walk in front to hit the head, the handle of the Luoyang shovel is very long, even if the blood ghoul can really jump up, it can also be used as a sniper tool.
After speaking, Zhao Yang stepped on the stairs of the Blood River Bridge step by step.
In Zhao Yang's heart, he felt that this bridge was more like the Nai He Bridge in Huangquan Prefecture, and Zhao Yang also thought of a sentence: "The copper snake and iron dog are fighting for food, and there is no way out forever."
The approximate meaning is very terrifying, and it is also the first bridge that the ghost has to cross when he arrives at the Huangquan Prefecture.
Of course, there is a strong mythological color in this, even if there really exist six realms and three realms in this world, but this is only an emperor's tomb, not the real Huangquan Underworld!
When Zhao Yang went up to the top of the Blood River Bridge, he could hear countless blood corpses in the Blood River below rolling in the water frantically, but he didn't jump up.
This just verified Zhao Yang's previous guess.
Seeing this, Jin Wuming relieved himself and ordered his brothers to cross the bridge quickly.
On the way across the bridge, Zhao Yang also found a detail, in the gap of the arched bridge made of bluestone, there is a dark green plant, the leaf stem is very narrow, the top has a thumb-sized flower bone, the outer layer of the flower bone is also wrapped by dark green leaves, but a closer look can see that there is a kind of red inside.
If Zhao Yang guessed correctly, this should be the legendary other side flower, and there is also a name called Manzhu Shahua.
Legend has it that the flower only blooms in the Yellow Spring, the Santu River on the road to the Yellow Spring, the flower on the other side of the Lethe River, and the only flower on the other side of the Yellow Spring also has a kind of magic that can awaken the memory of the deceased.
"What a flower on the other side of the bridge!"
Zhao Yang raised his eyebrows, it seems that this emperor's tomb has copied the essence of the Huangquan Underworld together.
But the fact that the flowers on the other side did not bloom made Zhao Yang feel a little surprised!
"Could it be that you came by yourself, isn't it the right time?"
Zhao Yang couldn't help but smile in his heart.
Hopefully, if it's really like the legend, the other side flower has the magic power that can awaken the memory of the deceased, then this other side flower blooms, and the entire emperor's tomb is not ghostly dancing?
