Chapter 156: The Boss Who Asks for Mercy
The general's soul just replied with one sentence, which already filled Li Xu's heart with questions.
He could already be sure that the appearance of the ghost clan near Tianmeng City was definitely the traitor who helped the human race cooperate with the beast clan legion and plot something important.
"Who's that mystery man?" Li Xu hurriedly asked.
"I don't know him, but I was ordered by the ghost king to listen to his dispatch, every time there is an action, he will send someone to this general temple, holding the ghost king's seal letter to give instructions, I just do it." The general's soul replied helplessly.
"You mean that they arranged for you to come here?" Li Xu asked in surprise.
"Yes, I was originally a ghost leader, and I was not qualified to occupy the body of the giant spirit general, and it was the ghost king who gave me divine power to lead the wandering soul here and obey the call of this mysterious person." The General's Soul replied.
"It's right, if the ghost clan wants to attach to other people's bodies, there must be some specific conditions, and with its ability, it is completely insufficient to control the bones of the giant spirit general." Ice and Snow Heart nodded.
"If you still have anything to say, tell me all about it." Li Xu asked.
"I've already said everything I know, I don't know anything else, and I'm just doing what I'm told." The General's Soul said.
"Damn." Li Xu was speechless.
I thought I could get more useful information from this guy, but I didn't expect it to be a small character, and I hadn't even seen the face of a human traitor
"Big brother, it looks like it's really useless." Drama is like life.
"Go ahead, get rid of it." Li Xu stood up and walked outside the stone pillar group
"Ah, didn't you say let me go?" The General's Soul asked in surprise.
"I mean let you go, they don't let you go, what can I do." Li Xu smiled faintly and strode towards the high platform in the distance with an ice and snow heart
"If you don't keep your word, I won't let you go!" The General's Soul howled angrily.
"Hehe, big brother is really dark, this method will also work." Xiao Tongtong said excitedly.
"Hurry up and kill it, it's not too early." Hikohiko smiled and nailed the steel drill with his two teammates
With the angry shouts of the boss and the clanging sound of hammers, Li Xu and Bing Xuexin had already walked under the high platform.
"Xuexin, this matter is getting more and more unusual, and there will be a big event within the human race." Li Xu said lightly.
"I know, when that guy recognized me just now, I already understood that the situation was not good, and the big thing you said was probably related to the Terran royal family." Bing Xue Xin nodded and said.
"Yes, General Wei Lin's death must involve a huge conspiracy, his identity is extraordinary, I am afraid that this is deliberately done by the mysterious person behind the scenes, and the intention is actually for General Wei Feng's Storm Legion." Li Xu said analytically.
"Uncle Weifeng's Storm Legion is the strongest legion in the Terran camp, they are guarding the Storm Abyss, blocking the passage for the Terrans to advance, and they have been like this for more than ten years." Ice Heart exclaimed.
"The Storm Abyss is a gateway to orc territory?" Li Xu looked at the fairy in surprise, this was the first time he had heard the news.
"Yes, our Terran territory has four important passages in all directions, and Uncle Weifeng's Storm Legion is in front of the Storm Abyss leading to the Orc Clan's territory; My father's Ice and Snow Legion guarded the sea of ice and snow outside Nuwa City to block the invasion of the demon clan; Uncle Wang Hao's Flying Fox Legion, guarding in the vast desert, is also resisting the attack of the beast army; Finally, there is Uncle Chen Tianxiao's Divine Power Legion, who is guarding the vast forest and sea against the beast and demon legions hidden in our human realm. Ice Heart said.
"I understand, now the situation is obvious, someone deliberately targeted General Wei Feng to assassinate his son Wei Lin, I am afraid that he deliberately forced General Wei Feng to have hatred and do things that are unfavorable to the human race." Li Xu listened to the fairy's introduction, and suddenly felt shocked, as if a conspiracy was about to surface
"If things are as you say, then isn't our human race an internal and external trouble?" Ice and Snow Heart was surprised.
"In this matter, I'm afraid that the mysterious man has already negotiated the conditions with the beast clan and the demon clan, and he must have paid a certain price in order for the beast clan and the demon clan to help each other with all their might." Li Xu pondered.
"So what do we do now, who the hell is the mystery man?" Bing Xue asked anxiously.
"Xuexin, don't worry, the matter has been investigated to this point, and that mysterious person will be revealed sooner or later, but I still have a question, and I am very puzzled." Li Xu said.
"Say it, as long as I understand the situation, I will definitely tell you." Ice Heart nodded.
"I've heard people say that General Wei Feng has only one son, and that is your brother Wei Lin, but why did you sue me that Wei Lin also has a younger brother, Wei Yuan, who was taken hostage and stayed in Tianmeng City like you?" Li Xu asked.
Last time, when he displayed the body of General Wei Lin in front of General Zhenshou, the old general exclaimed at that time, isn't this the only son of General Wei Feng
But within a few days, another Wei Yuan brother popped out, which made Li Xu puzzled, and thought it was a slip of the tongue of the general at that time.
But last time in the mine, Wei Cheng and the others said that when the Tiger Guards left the city and set off, Wei Lin only told the news to two people, one of whom was Bing Xuexin, and the other was this guy named Wei Yuan.
Li Xu was suspicious at that time, suspecting that this guy was by no means a good thing
"Brother Wei Lin is indeed Uncle Wei Feng's only son, yes, but Wei Yuan is also his son." Ice Heart said.
"What's going on?" Li Xu was stunned.
"Wei Yuan's brother's father, in order to protect Uncle Wei Feng in another battle, died tragically at the hands of the beast army, Uncle Wei Feng raised the child he left behind as his own son, except for a few generals who participated in that battle at that time, no one knows about this matter, including the royal family. Otherwise, the royal family would not have agreed to Uncle Wei Feng to stay in the imperial city as a hostage. Ice Heart said.
"You mean that even the generals who know about this will not tell you about it." Li Xu suddenly realized.
The Emotional Guard General is one of those in the know
"Yes, this is a serious crime, if the royal family knows, they will definitely blame Uncle Wei Feng, and let Brother Wei Lin come back to replace the hostages." Ice Heart said.
"Okay, let's put this matter aside for the time being, and when I pick you up tomorrow night, after killing the new commander of the beast camp, the truth will be revealed as soon as I can." Li Xu nodded and thought about it.
"Fighting against fate, this matter must be investigated, otherwise the human race is really dangerous." Bing Xuexin said nervously.
"Don't worry, I'll find out about it." Li Xu nodded.
He walked around the platform with Ice Heart to the black dirt pit in the back
The place that was originally the general's mausoleum has been hollowed out at this moment, leaving only a huge pit that is more than ten meters deep.
With the help of the faint moonlight on the top of the hall, Li Xu found that there was a strange six-pointed star array at the point of this cone-shaped deep pit that was wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, but he didn't find any passages like holes.
"This is the teleportation array of the ghost clan, which can allow ghosts to enter and exit the general's mausoleum freely, and others can't enter." Ice Heart looked at the bottom of the pit and explained softly.
"I see, let's go down and have a look." Li Xu said with a smile.
"Okay, give me your hand." Bing Xuexin laughed.
"What, you're taking me down?" Li Xu stretched out his hand suspiciously.
"Yes, I can't climb mountains, but I'm better at jumping pits than you." Ice and Snow said playfully, grabbed his wrist and jumped down
burst
With a slight sound of landing, Li Xu had already been taken by the fairy into the big pit, and it was a dark environment.
Looking around, the pit was surrounded by smooth stone walls, with only some strange charms engraved on the feet, and a huge skull pattern in the center.
"The ghost race only has a soul without a body, and cannot appear in the daytime, and can only occupy the shell of other races, so they can move freely, so skeletons are the most basic host for them, and they are also their totems." Ice Heart explained.
"I seem to have heard that the demons only have souls and no bodies, what is the difference between them and the ghosts?" Li Xu asked suspiciously.
"You still know the demons, it's a pity that there is no trace of the demons in the troubled times, they are indeed somewhat similar to the ghost clan, but the strength is much stronger than the ghost clan, first of all, their souls can appear in the day without the help of their bodies, and their strength has reached the level of the gods, so as long as the demons appear, the gods will definitely come out to deal with them." Bing Xuexin laughed.
"And this is the case." Li Xu can be regarded as raising his posture, and some complex settings in the troubled times finally began to slowly unveil the veil of mystery to him.
He squatted down, first checked the situation of this six-pointed star array, and studied it for a while, but he still couldn't understand the secrets in it, maybe as Ice and Snow Heart said, only the people of the ghost clan can enter and exit here freely.
But now, there are more important things waiting for him to do, and the gold shovel in the package, which has been flashing purple since it led him here, is very eye-catching in the package.
That said, the Shovel has found a working environment, and it's time for it to come in handy
Li Xu took out the golden shovel and replaced the shield and long sword in his hand.
As the shovel appeared between his hands, dazzling purple light suddenly illuminated the dim hall.
Ding: You are in the right position and can use the gold spatula!
The system prompt sounded, Li Xu understood the situation, and immediately grabbed the shovel with both hands and thrust it into the ground
With a pop, the shovel, which was as sharp as a bird's beak, effortlessly penetrated the hard rock of the ground and penetrated deep into the ground at once, leaving only a long handle of less than half a meter
