Chapter 195: Army of the Undead
The Imperial Tomb was built thousands of years ago, and at that time, there was no technology to make wax figures.
However, the ancients have discovered that beeswax and other waxes can make food not rot.
At that time, the big men had funerary goods after death, and in addition to valuable things, servants, women, and mounts would also be regarded as funerary goods.
Many kings would make a large number of terracotta figurines as funerary goods, trying to lead a large army after death, and some cruel kings would even bury their own subordinates alive.
There is an ambitious emperor buried in the tomb of Emperor Lishan, and the idea of building such a huge mausoleum is to become an undead emperor after death.
Worried that his subordinates would become useless loess after death because of the decomposition of their corpses, he used wax figures of living people.
Boil the wax until it is hot, give the living subordinates a decoction that will make them unconscious, pour the hot wax juice on their bodies, and after cooling, they become living wax figures.
This cruel method will not only keep those dead terracotta warriors from decaying for thousands of years, but will also completely seal their souls in the corpse and never enter the reincarnation.
"These wax figures of living people are so pitiful, or let's help them get rid of them."
Several people present knew what was going on with the wax statues, and if there were several, or dozens, they wouldn't be too shocked.
But there are tens of thousands of wax figures of living people, which is simply sensational, Feng Zhengsu and Lin Wensheng both frowned, and Lin Yu suggested with complicated eyes.
"Well, at the very least, we have to free their souls from the corpses."
Lin Fei also said.
"Yes, we should do a ritual and send them all to samsara." Rong Fatzi's facial expression was also very serious.
"Nope."
However, Feng Zhengsu shook his head and rejected their proposal.
"Why?"
All three of them looked puzzled.
"We can't control this kind of thing, alas." Lin Wensheng sighed and said.
Feng Zhengsu said: "Don't insult them with the word pitiful, they were all the most loyal and elite soldiers of the emperor's subordinates during their lifetimes, and all of them volunteered to become living wax figures." ”
"Huh?"
Hearing Feng Zhengsu say this, the three of them were a little incredulous.
"Ugh."
Feng Zhengsu sighed and said, "You don't understand the status of the emperor in the hearts of ordinary people in the past, let alone the will of the emperor, for them it is a kind of belief, although the ancients were not stupid, but their thinking is actually very simple." ”
The three of them didn't seem to understand, and they couldn't understand Feng Zhengsu's words a little.
"Not only did they voluntarily become wax figures of living people, but they also went through competition, since their souls can be sealed, they can naturally break the seal, and they have long been ready for the emperor to break the seal and fight the world again."
Feng Zhengsu saw that they were puzzled, and said again.
"Hey, I see!"
Lin Wensheng understood the meaning of Feng Zhengsu's words, and immediately gasped, and then stared at the wax figures of living people in front of him, revealing a fanatical expression.
Feng Zhengsu said, "It is very likely that the golden armor corpse is the emperor in the imperial tomb, and if you can subdue the golden armor corpse, it is equivalent to having an army of these undead warriors." ”
There is no need to hide this kind of thing from them, and the most likely person in the imperial tomb to become a golden armor corpse has no other existence except for the emperor.
"That's right! These terracotta warriors that have been sealed for thousands of years, I am afraid that everyone's strength has reached the heaven level! Lin Wensheng said excitedly.
With tens of thousands of heaven-level terracotta warriors, it makes people's hearts surging just thinking about it.
Feng Zhengsu waved his hand: "Don't be too happy too early, if you want to subdue the golden armor corpse, it's not so easy, let's go, find it first." ”
"Well, this imperial tomb is really too big, and I don't know where the main tomb is." Lin Wensheng suppressed his excitement, looked around, and then said.
Feng Zhengsu's gaze turned to Rong Fatty, "Little Fatty, I'll leave it to you, you say the direction, and I'll lead the way." ”
"Hey, okay." Rong Fat Man smiled, looked around, and said, "To be honest, I have never heard of such a large mausoleum before, and it is estimated that our current location is still the periphery of the mausoleum." ”
Feng Zhengsu nodded and said: "To tell you the truth, the Lishan Emperor's Mausoleum was built according to the one-to-one ratio of the former imperial palace, and the water galaxy here is just the gate of the palace." ”
"That's too big, isn't it?"
Although he knew that the imperial tomb was very large, hearing Feng Zhengsu say this, Rong Fat Man was still shocked.
Feng Zhengsu smiled and didn't say anything more, then stretched out his hand and pointed forward, "Let's go." ”
So saying, the crowd continued to walk forward.
Walk through the group of terracotta warriors of living wax figures, preceded by two massive arched doors.
The arched doors lead in two different directions.
"Over there?"
Feng Zhengsu turned around and asked Rong Fatty.
Rong Fat Man looked into the arched door, it was all pitch black, and he couldn't see anything.
I squatted down and touched the ground on both sides, but it was all stones, and I couldn't figure out why.
"Huh?"
Finally, after sniffing again, I smelled a faint stench in the passage of the arched door on the left.
"There's a smell here, it should be a corpse, let's go this way."
Immediately, he pointed to the arched doorway on the left.
Feng Zhengsu raised his leg and walked in to the right.
"My lord, this way, you're on the wrong track!"
Rong Fat Man was stunned, and hurriedly shouted Feng Zhengsu Dao.
Feng Zhengsu said: "That's right, just go to the right." ”
Lin Wensheng was also a little confused, "Don't you go to the left?" ”
Feng Zhengsu said: "The smell of the dead thousands of years ago has long since dissipated, and the smell of the corpse is designated as that of the tomb robbers, which means that there are traps in the passage on the left, and there is no yin and yang gossip in the imperial tomb, only two paths of life and death." ”
Hearing him say this, everyone immediately understood, so they hurriedly followed Feng Zhengsu and walked to the right.
After passing through the arched door on the right, the passage widens and widens, and after a while, you come to a place that resembles a square.
Sure enough, the journey went smoothly and there were no pitfalls.
Rong Fatzi shone a flashlight and found that this square was surrounded by secret doors.
There are dozens of large and small secret doors.
The secret doors were chained as if there was something inside.
Feng Zhengsu saw that there was no way, and immediately kicked open a secret door.
As soon as the secret door was opened, it was full of bamboo slips.
"Open all the secret doors and see."
Feng Zhengsu flipped through the bamboo slips and found that the seal characters on them were all about the art of war.
The art of war is useless to him, but this is one thing, these secret doors, I am afraid that there are all kinds of funeral goods.
"Wow, you're rich!"
Rong Fatzi and they quickly opened the other secret doors.
It turned out that some of the secret doors contained all kinds of gold, silver and jewelry, and some were all kinds of weapons.
There is also food that has been carbonized.
Rong Fat Man shouted happily at the moment.
"You're happy, we want gold, silver and jewelry, it's useless, go and open other secret doors!"
Feng Zhengsu immediately said angrily to Rong Fatzi.
Fifty years ago, these gold and silver jewels would have been good.
But now, all the transactions are made of spirit stones, and the gold and silver jewelry has almost no other purpose except decoration.
"Knock knock!"
Strange things happened, the secret door was only half opened, and the other was generally not opened.
"These secret doors can't be opened, what should I do?"
Rong Fat Man was a little speechless.
Feng Zhengsu walked to a secret door that could not be opened, grabbed the iron chains and pulled them hard, and the metal chains broke like noodles.
"What is this?"
Seeing the things inside the secret door, Lin Wensheng frowned, "What is in this gourd?" ”
In the secret door, there are all gourds one by one.
"Elixir."
Feng Zhengsu picked up a gourd and shook it, and said.
"Pills? What an elixir? ”
Lin Wensheng asked with some confusion.
"When the emperor was in his twilight, he was obsessed with immortality, in addition to sending people around to find the elixir of immortality, he also invited a group of alchemists to refine the medicine, oh, many of those alchemists are the ancestors of your Daomen."
Feng Zheng Su Road.
"Ah, in this way, the gourd is filled with the elixir refined by the predecessors in the Daomen!"
Fat Rong was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly opened a gourd, wanting to pour out the pills inside.
"Dead fatty, you're looking for death!"
Seeing his actions, Feng Zhengsu immediately scolded.
"What's wrong with me?" Rong Fat Man didn't know why, and asked in wonder.
Feng Zhengsu said sharply: "The shit elixir is all things that fool people, and the shit elixir refined by mercury and lead is completely a chronic poison!" ”
"Well, then I won't eat it." Rong Fat Man hurriedly said.
Feng Zhengsu said angrily: "Hurry up and open all the secret doors, there should still be a way to the depths of the mausoleum." ”
"Bang!"
At this moment, a secret door suddenly exploded, and a huge black shadow slowly walked out of it.
At the same time, a huge demonic aura also spread in an instant.
