Chapter 199: Mida City
The Golden Armor Greeting Corpse is a very old funeral ceremony, so old that almost no one in modern times has heard of it. That is, the Zhong brothers are obsessed with the study of corpses, and only then do they know some secrets that ordinary people do not know.
According to what the Zhong brothers said, these golden armor people are real living people, and they are like a guard of honor when they are alive, and they specialize in the work of greeting VIPs.
The golden-armored warriors were reserved for emperors, and in ancient times, they were highly hierarchical, and those small vassal states were not qualified to use this kind of thing at all. If the emperor died, these golden-armored warriors would use a special method to create zombie-like beings, stand in front of the mausoleum, and continue to welcome the arrival of VIPs, which is commonly known as burial.
It's just that the guest who greeted the corpse was a bit special, because the guests who greeted the corpse were not living people, but dead people.
When I heard this, I thought it was strange, you must know that after death, the grave must be closed, so that outsiders are not allowed to come in and disturb the rest of the deceased, and secondly, to prevent the burial goods in your tomb from being taken away.
But this golden armor greeting corpse did the opposite, for fear that others would not come, and made such an honor guard to greet him.
The boss of the Zhong family said that only the dead are allowed to enter the golden armor corpse, and the ghosts are allowed to enter, but the living are not allowed to enter. Because there is yang energy in the living person, if you go in, something will definitely happen. So if we have to do it, we don't go in if we can.
The eyes of the gold-armored warriors on both sides were blazing, even if it was thousands of years old, they were still lifelike, and even the color of the golden armor had not faded. The thought that this thing was made after the burial of a living person makes me a little creepy.
It's not that I'm afraid, but I think that in ancient times, it was really a matter of taking human life instead of human life, and the corpses outside plus the gold-armored warriors here, how many people died here?
Su Zi'an silently looked at the golden-armored warriors on both sides, and said: "In the mausoleum, there are nothing more than ghosts and ghosts, beasts, let's have weapons and weapons, and we need means and means, don't be too taboo." ”
The boss of the Zhong family wanted to speak and stopped, it seemed that he didn't want to follow the corpse of Xiangrui on this road. But the smoke was billowing behind him, the flames were soaring, and the iron tower led people all the way to set fire and blast, forcing the corpses outside to retreat, and they were about to rush in.
If this group of people were to chase after them, we would inevitably have to fight again, and we would rather break through this so-called gold-armored road to welcome the corpse than those actual submachine guns and flamethrowers.
The minority obeys the majority, and even if the Zhong family brothers refute it, it is useless. At that moment, everyone's hearts were crossed, and they ran directly in the direction where the corpse of Xiangrui left.
This cave has obvious traces of artificiality, the surrounding is flat and flat, every other way, there are lampstands made of bronze, which should be used for lighting, but no one has come in for thousands of years, and the bronzes have oxidized into swarthy, dirty things, which look very ugly.
We have a strong flashlight, so naturally we don't care whether the lampstand is on or not, but when the lights flicker, those golden-armored warriors sealed in the cave wall are still looking at us intently, and wherever we go, our eyes will look.
Being stared at by so many people, it's a little uncomfortable to be anyone. Fortunately, everyone's minds are quite resolute, and they walked briskly along the way, and they all couldn't bear to look at the corpses hidden in the mountain walls, anyway, they were a group of zombies that had been dead for thousands of years, and they were sealed inside as decorations.
Can't run out and bite us, right?
The cave is not very deep, and after walking for about a hundred meters, a slight soft light appeared in front of it. I have a good eye, and when I saw the glimmer in front of me, I asked everyone to turn off the flashlight first. After all, the beam of the strong light flashlight is too conspicuous, and I don't know what there is in front of me, so it is better to keep a low profile first, so as not to expose myself first.
After the flashlight's beam disappeared, the glimmer in front of it became much more conspicuous. At that moment, none of us spoke, but directly accelerated our pace and walked forward, and after turning a corner, our eyes suddenly opened up.
Immediately after, I heard a series of gasps, and even I was stunned and my eyes almost fell out.
At the end of the cave, there is a city!
That's right! In this dark place of life and death, in this 100,000 mountains full of corpses, there is even a city hidden!
I rubbed my eyes vigorously and whispered, "! Is this a hallucination? ”
Wen Taizi whispered: "It's not an illusion, this is indeed a city!" ”
We were standing on a higher vantage point, so we had a great view of the city. Truth be told, the city is not big, at best it is equivalent to a small town in the country. However, there are pavilions and pedestrians inside.
Some ghostly fires fill the streets and alleys of the city, and if you look down with a shimmering telescope, you can see residents and soldiers walking around the city.
The inhabitants here are varied, from physical ghosts to shorter desolates, and even some zombies with fangs and purple all over their bodies, and some mountain spirits who don't know how to get there.
I also saw those dragon ghosts with arms more than two meters long also cowering in the corners of the wall, as if they did not dare to see people.
The shark couldn't help but scold: "Why are so many demons and monsters gathered here?" Could it be that this is an underworld? ”
The boss of the Zhong family shook his head: "It's not the underworld, this is Mida City!" ”
I thought about it carefully, and finally knew what the so-called Mida City meant.
Mido City is not the name of a city, but a collective name for a place. It's like the Land of the Fallen Undead, a place where countless ghosts gather.
It's just that the land of the fallen dead is a natural formation, and the people living in it are all vicious and vicious ghosts, and Midor City is a man-made settlement for some homeless lonely ghosts.
The name of the city of Mita is taken from the fact that Mi is self-reliant and does many good deeds. Only those warlocks with great wisdom, great abilities, and great means will be able to find a suitable location for the construction of Mido City.
And the reason why Mida City was established was actually because this warlock had his own selfishness. After all, a capable warlock is also a human being, with parents and brothers, wives and sisters, and possibly even children and grandchildren.
If a warlock's relative dies due to an accident, and he is reluctant to experience life and death, he will choose to send the soul of his loved one to Mida City. Because of the special way Mido City was built and its unique geographical location, the souls of the dead will live here in a different way.
It's also survival in another sense.
When Midor City was first founded, it was inhabited by ghosts, and most of them were extradited by the relatives and family members of the warlocks after an accidental death.
In the later stages, the warlocks who participated in the construction of Mida City died one after another, and the first group of residents finally chose to leave due to the aging of their souls. But the people are gone, but the city of Mida is not deserted, and the lonely ghosts who wander outside have become the second group of residents of the city.
Later, even the zombie spirits heard about it, and even the desolate people living underground did not know where to appear, so Mida City formed an alternative development in an inaccessible place.
After a long time, a deformed social form will spontaneously form here, with managers, law enforcers, and all kinds of low-level people. Moreover, Mida City does not prohibit anyone from entering, but after entering, you must abide by the rules here.
It is worth mentioning that Midor City is not unique to this area. It is said that at the end of the Song Dynasty, Zheng Kexiu, the first warlock of the Southern Song Dynasty, once strayed into a Miduo city hidden in the mountains in the Shennongjia area.
At that time, Zheng Kexiu was competing with the Yuan soldiers, and he once visited the administrator of Mida City, wanting to borrow 2,000 ghost soldiers to carry out a sneak attack on the Yuan army.
It's just that the ghost soldiers were indeed borrowed, but Zheng Kexiu lost ten years of longevity. The most important thing is that these ghost soldiers can't compete with the murderous Yuan soldiers on the frontal battlefield, after all, the murderous spirit of the soldiers is heavy, and there are many people, where can they be afraid of two thousand ghost soldiers?
The borrowed ghost soldiers collapsed at the touch of a button, so angry that Zheng Kexiu almost didn't vomit blood, gritted his teeth and swore a curse, and after overthrowing the Yuan army, he must go to the manager of Mido City to settle the account.
It's just that the Yuan army didn't overturn, Zheng Kexiu was betrayed by a traitor, and a glass of poisoned wine was sent to the West Heaven, and even his soul was not left.
I told you about the origin of Mida City, and everyone who listened to it was stunned for a moment, and they called out that they had seen it for a long time. No one would have thought that there would be such a strange city hidden in the 100,000 mountains.
Wen Taizi said thoughtfully: "One hundred thousand mountains are the mausoleum of Emperor Shun, so many cities, which means that it was handed down from Emperor Shun's era?" And the golden-armored samurai outside, who specially welcomed the dead and corpses to live in Yata Castle? ”
The boss of the Zhong family nodded slightly, and said: "The golden armor greeting corpses is just a saying, although it is a corpse, but this is just a general term, whether it is undead, spirits, or zombies, as long as they meet the living conditions of Mida City, I am afraid they are the objects of their greeting." ”
No matter what greets you, since this is the mausoleum of Emperor Shun, maybe Miduo City was built by Emperor Shun himself. After all, if you want to build a Mida City, in addition to finding a suitable enough place, you must also have enough prestige and means.
Otherwise, even if you build a city, it is impossible for someone to send the souls of their relatives to live there. Only Emperor Shun has this prestige and ability.
The shark said, "After saying this for a long time, I actually want to know if Midor City welcomes the living?" There are all ghosts and zombies living in it, will we be torn to shreds if we go down? ”
I thought for a moment and said, "Essentially, living people are not welcome here, but in addition to being living people, we are also exorcists who understand yin and yang. Also, each Mido City has its own rules, whether the living are hostile or welcome, in fact, the most important thing is to see what the rules of Mido City are. ”
The basic situation is actually like this, Zhang Wuren and He Zhonghua Bacheng are hiding in Mido City. I don't know if they were imprisoned or hiding.
