Dong Zhong knelt on the ground and replied: "Although it is far away and it is raining, his eyes exude a cold light, which is very conspicuous.

The soldier also echoed: "We have all seen it, they are all the undead of Great Qin!"

Yao Jia said: "Shut up, my Daqin law is clear, where there are unjust dead souls, it must be the remnants of the Six Kingdoms pretending to be gods and fooling the people!"

Wuji asked calmly, "How many skeleton cavalry have you seen?"

"There are about a thousand, and all of them are wearing Great Qin's armor!" Jiang Xin replied.

Wuji continued to ask: "You said earlier that you heard a roar like a torrent, and then you saw their horses' hooves galloping past without landing on the ground, since the horses' hooves did not fall to the ground, why did the roar come from?"

Jiang Xin knocked his head on the ground and said, "My lord, what I said is true, I implore you to be clear!"

"It's not that I don't believe what you say, but the official wants to reconfirm your complaint. ”

Yao Jia asked, "What do you think, the two Imperial Historians?"

Feng Zao stroked his silver beard and said in an old voice: "It's hard to say now, you need to search here carefully to find clues!"

Yao Jia sighed: "I'm afraid the traces here have been washed away by the heavy rain!"

Jiang Xin said: "After the skeleton cavalry left, I was afraid that the scene would be destroyed, so I gathered all the survivors together, waited for the adults to investigate, and sent someone to the Tingwei Mansion to report the case." ”

Wu Ji said calmly: "As long as something happens, it will leave traces, it just depends on whether it can be discovered." ”

The three of them searched carefully along the valley side by side, a dozen officers of all sizes followed behind them to examine carefully, the slain soldiers looked at their wounds, or were stabbed to death with spears and spears, or slashed with long knives, their eyes widened, and they were obviously frightened before they died, and did not put up any resistance, and the horses were all stabbed to death, the barrel carts were either broken or crushed by heavy weapons, broken pieces of wood and wheels were everywhere, streams of rain flowed on the surface of the mercury, ruts and horseshoe prints were washed away, and there were occasional shallow puddles, and the outline of the margins could not be seen clearly.

Yao Jia asked Wuji, "My lord watched this scene, do you believe their statement?"

"Looking at the death of the deceased and the horse, it should have been killed by the cavalry, and the dead all had their eyes open, they must have seen something terrible, it can be determined that Jiang Xin and others are telling the truth, but whether it was done by the undead remains to be verified. Wuji said calmly.

At this time, Feng Zheng pointed to the broken wheel and said, "What do you think this is?"

Yao Jia and Wujian hurriedly walked over to take a closer look, and saw that there was a spear head inserted in the fracture, the spear head was rusty, and the age was not short, presumably the spear was broken when it split the wheel, and Feng Zai ordered someone to take it down and hand it to him.

Feng Zai took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, and suddenly exclaimed: "Look at the inscription on the head of this gun!" Hurriedly signaled to Yao Jia and Wuji, although the inscription on it was a little blurry, it could be determined to be a 'Qin' character.

Yao Jia was surprised: "This is the weapon of the old Qin soldiers, this kind of bronze has been replaced by iron tools because of its brittleness and hard breakage, my Great Qin has long been no longer used in weapons, where did they get this weapon, is it really the Qin soldiers who died on the battlefield?"

"My lord, there is a broken halberd here!" a man from the Tingwei Mansion picked up a piece of bronze from the mud and handed it to Yao Jia.

After a while, three more broken bronze weapons were found, and most of the people present began to panic, and most of the statements made by Jiang Xin and the others were believed.

Feng Zai said: "If according to Jiang Xin's description, a thousand cavalry suddenly appeared outside this Xianyang City, the old man thinks that it may not be the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, they don't have the strength now, let alone such a big courage, and they do not have such a big fight, braving the heavy rain to destroy this mercury car, leaving these eight words, the old man thinks that it is completely unnecessary." ”

Yao Jia asked, "Do you believe that this is the work of the undead?"

"The old man never believed in the theory of gods and ghosts, but at the moment he really can't explain that this is left by a living person. ”

Wujian pointed to the big characters on the stone cliff and asked, "Listening to the meaning of the two adults, it seems that this handwriting is the same as Wu Anjun's handwriting?"

Yao Jia said: "The old man has sorted out the folds of the past dynasties, Wu Anjun's handwriting has been seen, he is used to writing the waist of the word 'person' straight, this font is this way of writing, so I was very surprised, but it is not excluded that someone deliberately forged the possibility that the font alone does not explain anything." ”

Wu Ji turned to Miao Xin behind him and asked, "Miao girl, I want to ask a question next, instilling true qi into the weapon and splitting this stone cliff, if you talk about cultivation, what kind of realm do you need to achieve?"

Miaoxin looked at the stone cliff and replied: "At least you need the realm of the Dao, but without the help of external forces, you can fly so high out of thin air and leave handwriting, and the master may not be able to do it." ”

"This can be pulled up with the help of a rope, but it is dark and others can't see clearly. He turned to Jin Xingzi and said, "Jin Xingzi, go around to the top of this cliff and see what traces there are on the trunk of that tree?"

After seeing Jin Xingzi climbing up from the side of the mountain, Wu Jian asked, "Lord Tingwei, where did this mercury come from?"

Yao Jia said: "There is a giant in Ba County, named Qing, after the death of her husband, inherited the family business, her family property is rich and rival the country, this mercury is purchased from her, Your Majesty has been loyal to this woman, many times donated money to Daqin, named 'virgin'. ”

After hearing this, Wujian said: "What a strange woman, but why did Your Majesty buy so much mercury?"

Yao Jia shook his head and sighed: "Your Majesty, in order to seek longevity, listen to those Taoist priests, and build the Lishan Immortal Palace, which can be described as a waste of money and money, heavy taxes, and the people are miserable, starving all over the wilderness, assuming that this is the work of the undead, it should be those tired servants, and it cannot be the undead of Lao Qin." ”

"Ting Wei is really a good official who cares about the suffering of the people!" Wu Jian exclaimed.

The old man could only sigh with emotion, but he couldn't advise His Majesty, so he could only watch the people suffer. ”

"Wechen had built the Great Wall in Shangjun before, and the servants wore the clothes of cattle and horses, and ate the food of dogs, and hundreds of people died every day. ”

"Whether it is a feudal or a county, the axis is really the heart of the people, how can it be the solidity of the city, the benefit of the blade, the security of the people and the prosperity of the country, and the people's grievances will be opposed, and they will remain unchanged for eternity. ”

Wu Jie bowed and said: "Weichen has been taught!"

At this time, Jin Xingzi had climbed to the cliff and shouted at Wuji under the cliff: "Indeed, as the little master said, the bark of this tree has fallen off, someone must have tied the rope to it, I cut off the roots of the tree and push it down, you come and see!"

Everyone was amazed by Jin Xingzi's divine power, and sure enough, he lived up to his name, and when he looked closely at the trees that rolled down, he found that a circle of bark had fallen off in the middle of the trunk, which was obviously a trace left by the rope strangled.

Yao Jia said: "Sure enough, as Lord Yushi expected, it seems that this Wu Anjun must have been disguised, I wonder if the Lord has a conclusion in his heart?"

"They smashed this mercury cart, took a lot of effort, and left these eight words, on the surface, it looks like the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, and seeing the blades it used, as well as the complaints of Jiang Xin and others, it seems that the undead are in chaos, but Weichen thinks that it seems that these two are untenable, as determined by Lord Yushi, it is impossible for so many cavalry to suddenly appear outside Xianyang City, and not be discovered by my Daqin, where did the old weapons of Daqin come from, it seems suspicious, and further investigation is needed, and the possibility of the undead chaos is not very large, first, the undead will not appear in the night of heavy rain, the soul will be scattered, and there will be no such great strength, second, There has never been a large-scale battle in the history of this place, and Wu Anjun did not die here, how could he travel hundreds of miles to come here to make trouble. ”

"If it weren't for these two, what kind of person would it be?" Feng Zheng asked.

Wuji leaned over and picked up a piece of red porcelain and pinched it in his hand, and said lightly: "I can't judge, including the surviving soldiers, maybe what we see is all an illusion, they want to confuse us through such a move, cover up their purpose, and make us have no idea where to start, this must have been carefully planned, using a strong cultivator, this may be just the beginning." ”

After Yao Jia heard this, he looked at the porcelain piece in Wuji's hand and said, "What's suspicious about this porcelain piece?"

"The fracture of this porcelain piece is new, it must have been left by them!" replied without obstacles.

At this moment, I heard someone behind me exclaiming, "Oh no, someone is dead!"

Wu Ji and the others looked back, only to see that among the soldiers kneeling on the ground, two soldiers were lying on the ground, foaming at the mouth, their limbs twitching, and then several soldiers fell to the ground one after another and died violently.

Everyone panicked, all kinds of myths and ghosts poured into their minds, Yao Jia and others hurriedly went over to check, and after inspection, they found no wounds on their bodies, and they were suspected of being poisoned and died.

Wuji leaned down, looked at his pupils, complexion, and nails, and asked the rest of the uneasy soldiers, "How do you feel strange about your body?"

One of the staggering soldiers said, "I...... I felt like the world was spinning, I couldn't breathe, a dark shadow came in, and I ......" I fell to the ground and died before I could finish speaking.

"They're asking for their lives again, we can't escape!" said the soldier on his knees, trembling and frightened.

As soon as these words came out, the gloomy weather suddenly became terrifying, and the timid people hurriedly looked around.

Yao Jia shouted angrily: "Dare to talk nonsense, in broad daylight, how can ghosts come from!" and asked Jiang Xin instead, "What have you all eaten?"

Jiang Xin said in a panic: "After what happened last night, we were frightened by it and didn't eat food!"

After Yao Jia heard this, his face was full of sorrow, and he said to the guards of the Tingwei Mansion: "Bring Jiang Xin and the others back to the Tingwei Mansion first, and wait for further interrogation!" and said to Feng Zheng: "I implore Lord Yushi to send someone to block this area and strictly check the passing crowd!"

Feng Zheng immediately issued a blockade order, and quickly passed to a fortress, asking the people nearby, looking for suspicious traces, no problem.

At this time, Jin Xingzi had gone down the mountain, and after whispering a few words in Jin Xingzi's ear, he handed Jin Xingzi the official seal, Jin Xingzi put away the official seal, flew on the horse, and rode away.

Yao Jia saw Jin Xingzi leave without obstacles, and asked, "What do you want him to do?"

Wuji said lightly: "Order him to search for the souls of the undead." ”
