Chapter 25: The Terracotta Army
At the same time that half of the dead man's bones were pulled out of the steward's body, blood gushed out from the wound as if he didn't want money. He showed the same smile he had just now, and said, "Did you stop this blood yourself?" Or will my old man do it for you? ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the chief steward who fell to the ground suddenly sat up out of thin air and shouted loudly: "I'll come by myself!" Afraid that he would not return to do something again, after finishing speaking, he first tore a piece of his shirt to strangle the wound, and then used a few techniques to stop the bleeding. It's just that under the serious injury, he lost too much blood, and he was dizzy and dizzy, and he inevitably lost his level. After twenty or thirty times in a row, the wound on his calf slowly stopped bleeding.
After stopping the bleeding, the chief was already sweating profusely. After relieving his breath, he said to the smiling returnee in front of him: "Senior, I really can't go down the road ahead." Otherwise, I'll be here to guard the exit for you. You don't have to worry about just moving forward, with me watching, outsiders will never be able to enter......"
"Then you don't want the elixir of immortality, right?" Before the chief manager could finish speaking, he was slowly interrupted by the non-return. The chief steward was stunned for a moment, he stared at the non-returnable for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth, struggled to get up from the ground, and walked towards the other end of the road, and heard the return behind him say: "That's right, if you want to open a little, there will be more places to use you later."
At the same time that the two of them were injured by pulling out their bones, Wu Mian ignored them, and he had already walked to the end of the passage first. When he was waiting for the head of the priest to come over, Wu Mian was still standing at the end of the passage, stunned by the scene inside.
Out of the passage is a place similar to the main hall, and on the periphery of the main hall, there are some samurai wearing armor and holding swords and halberds. The eyes of these warriors, without exception, were all looking at the location of Wu Mian and the three of them.
The chief steward was bleeding profusely, his eyes had already been dizzy, and after seeing these ironclad warriors, he thought that there was an ambush Qin army hiding here, so he sat on the ground in shock. Even the scheming ones who couldn't return took several steps back, ready to flee at any time.
"See clearly, these are not living people" Seeing the reaction of these two people, Wu Mian snorted, and then continued: "These are terracotta figurines made of mud, and the craftsmanship is really good, at first glance I didn't see that these were terracotta figurines"
After Wu Mian finished speaking, he stabilized his mind without returning. returned to Wu Mian's side, carefully looked at the nearest few ironclad sergeants, and after seeing that they were not alive, his brows furrowed, and said: "No, this should be the side altar of the heavens, and it should be all prisoners of war and slaves who have been sacrificed to the sky, how can there be so many terracotta warriors?" ”
As he spoke, his eyes rolled vigorously, and when he finished speaking, he glanced at the chief steward sitting on the ground and said, "You, go in and have a look......
I don't know if it's because of excessive blood loss or because I'm scared, but the head steward's face is now pale and his body is shaking. looked at whether to return or not, and said: "You see I'm like this, can I still get out if I go in?" ”
Gui Wu squinted his eyes and looked at the chief steward, and said, "This is the Temple of Ascension, what are you afraid of?" Who have you ever seen who dares to lay a formation inside the Temple of Ascension? This is the safest place in the entire Zhenguo altar. Put your heart in your stomach, it's okay, go in and come out in a circle, I'm here watching you, what are you afraid of? Besides, the elixir isn't that easy to get."
When the elixir of life was mentioned, the steward took a breath, and his action was seen in the eyes of the returnee. The old guy changed his tone, and then said: "When those few people who have been immortal get the elixir, it is much more difficult than you are now, and they are really resurrected after death. How can you be so good now, and there are still two seniors behind you who are supported by you. Think clearly, immortality is right in front of you, don't lose what you see coming."
This sentence hit the chief steward by seven inches, and he gritted his teeth and struggled to get up from the ground. After glancing at Wu Mian, he turned his gaze to the body of the returnee, and said: "How can I say that I used to be the head of the Fang Shi of Great Qin, these terracotta figurines have evil qi floating on them, and I can still see it in my eyes."
Speaking of this, he took a deep breath and continued: "But I'm out of the way, just take a trip!" But we have something to say in front, I had a little holiday with Mian before, and I have to wait until this lap is over. Don't wait for me to stumble halfway through, it's better to give me a good time now."
"Don't put your dirty heart on me" Wu Mian followed coldly and said: "Don't expect me to save you if something happens, don't be afraid that I will hurt you if something happens"
The chief manager nodded at Wu Mian and said, "Nacheng, our previous grievances will be settled later" After saying this, he turned his head and said to the non-returnee: "Once my luck is good, I can't die, and I ask you to abide by the agreement we made in Bashang City."
He nodded and said, "Don't worry, even if you are unlucky, if something really happens, I will collect your soul as soon as possible, so that you will not lose your soul."
The chief steward who said this sentence was silent for a while. After a while, he let out a sigh of relief, ignoring Wu Mian and Gui Bugui, and found a palm-sized, hollowed-out bronze box in his arms. Then the box was opened, and inside was a small white wax pill. The steward crushed the wax skin, revealing a dark green elixir inside.
The steward put the wax-peeled pill back into the bronze box, and then shook the box violently in his hand. As his arm swayed, a wisp of pale green smoke drifted out of his fingers. At this time, the chief steward finally stopped moving, and he took out a very thin bronze chain from his bosom, fastened one end of the chain to the box, and carried the other end himself. He no longer paid attention to Wu Mianhe and whether he would return or not, dragged a lame leg, and walked towards the altar.
The head manager's family was brought out by him from the city of Barba, how to say that he used to be the first emperor's big celebrity, and he still has some family background in his hands. When the bronze box and chain were revealed, he sighed vigorously and muttered to himself: "After all, I have been the head of the Fang Shi, and I really have a few good things in my hand......"
Just as he was speaking, the steward had already left the corridor and dragged a lame leg into the altar. Wu Mian looked at his back, and said to him in his mouth: "I don't even want my life, what did you promise him in Bashang City?" ”
He turned around and smiled at Wu Mian, but didn't answer immediately. It wasn't until the chief steward had walked far away and estimated that he couldn't hear the sound of this speech that he said with a smile: "I said that you are looking for the treasure left by Xu Fu, which contains the elixir of immortality." You are already an immortal body, and that elixir doesn't mean much to you. As long as he can help us find the location on the map, it doesn't matter if we give him one and a half."
When he said this, his gaze suddenly jumped when he looked at the back of the chief manager, and then he said with some surprise: "I really don't see it, this little guy still has some ability."
At this time, the pace of the manager suddenly changed, and his feet seemed to be stepping on a dance-like step, three steps forward and two steps back, and often changed the position of his footing halfway, making people wonder where he would land next. It's just that one of his legs was seriously injured, and every time he landed, he had a hideous expression of grinning teeth, and a series of blood-colored footprints were left on the ground.
At the same time, the bronze box with the chain in the hand of the chief steward was slowly thrown up. He was centered on himself, and the hand holding the chain slowly shook above his head, causing the bronze box to revolve around him. In the blink of an eye, the steward's whole body was wrapped in pale green smoke. There are words in his mouth, as if he is singing a tune that he doesn't understand the lyrics and runs away from the ridiculous tune.
