Chapter 64: Thousand Corpses Ancient Array
But when I saw these hanging things clearly, I was almost shocked into a cold sweat, this row of hanging things is nothing else, it is actually a human corpse, because the distance is not very high, I still look down from the bottom, so I can clearly see the feet of these corpses, these corpses are not said to be hundreds, they have been hung on the top, which makes people shudder to watch, and the sense of fear soars rapidly, no wonder the yin qi is so heavy, it turns out that these corpses are doing tricks.
"Oh my God, this is a corpse, and these things hanging on it are actually corpses." But before I could speak, Jenny shouted in horror.
The big man also woke up suddenly, "My mother, I just feel like a human, it's really it, why are there so many corpses?" β
All of us didn't dare to move, I thought this was just an empty tomb, but what I didn't expect was that at the top of this tomb, there would be so many corpses hanging, which was really unimaginable, seeing this terrifying scene, I even felt my scalp tingle, and cold sweat flowed down instantly.
You can't imagine what it was like to be in a dark space with hundreds of corpses hanging from it. I have been out to sea until now, I have experienced countless trials of life and death, and I have seen all kinds of evil spirits, but I am still shocked, there are so many corpses, in such a dark space, I am very nervous, nervous.
"So many corpses? What the hell is this place? Are we in the wrong place? Li Xin asked in horror, her voice changed, which showed how strict she was afraid of Cheng dΓΉ.
"It's over, it must be a mistake, is this clearly a mass grave, this must be the burial chamber where the burial companions are buried." Junko also said with a little trembling.
"It's not a burial, you take a closer look, these corpses are all hung on it, if it is a burial companion, it is impossible to be hung here, generally they are still in the tomb after being directly killed, or simply buried alive, the corpses should have already rotted, and these corpses are clearly dried corpses, obviously they have been processed, in ancient times, the people who can turn corpses into dry corpses, except for the dark mage, there should be no one else." Chang Shan stretched out his hand and pointed upward, his eyes became very sharp, and his face looked very heavy.
I didn't notice these details at first, but when he said this, I took a closer look, and it was true, all the corpses were tied with ropes around their necks, and hung on the beams, like hanged ghosts, and the corpses were well preserved, just like the mummy, not decomposed, completely like dried corpses.
And each corpse is wearing the clothes of the ancients, these clothes I know well, are the clothes of the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, so it can be seen that these dead people are the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty at that time, and it is likely that they are the remnants of the officers and soldiers taken away by Emperor Jianwen when he fled.
"Brother Changshan is right, this is by no means the burial chamber of the undertaker, if I am not wrong, this should be called the Thousand Corpses Array." After Jiao Ba said this, he gasped, which shows how terrible this matter is.
"What? Thousand Corpses? I hurriedly asked, my heart beating faster, and it looked like we were in big trouble again.
"Well, this is the most evil formation in ancient times, more terrible than any evil spirit, it is to use the dried corpses of a thousand people to guard the entrance of the tomb master, these corpses have been Gu by the dark mage, once awakened, they are immortal, knives and guns can't kill them at all, you look at the clothes they are wearing, it is obvious that they are the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, from this point you can see that they were all officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty during their lifetimes, presumably they were used to escort Emperor Jianwen to escape, But that Zhu Yunwen actually sacrificed so many lives to guard his own mausoleum, it is really undeserved, no wonder his country will be taken away by his uncle, it seems that God has its own arrangement. Jiao Ba squinted his eyes and said through gritted teeth.
"So, we're in the right place?" Mai Lao interjected and asked, his eyes became very evil again, and in the dark space, there seemed to be an imperceptible cold light.
Jiao Ba stretched out his hand and pointed forward, "If you pass through the front passage, you will definitely be able to go directly to the entrance of the main tomb, but it is not so easy to get there, these dried corpses will be our biggest obstacle." As he spoke, he looked up again.
"Wouldn't it? How powerful can these dried corpses be? "I'm a little skeptical, which one of the demon insect corpses, the spirit lizards, the ice demons, the snow demons, etc., is not a terrible deadly evil spirit, these shriveled and emaciated corpses, will they be more terrifying than them?
"Their horror is not how powerful they are, but that they will not die at all, this is also the most terrifying thing about the Thousand Corpses Array, a thousand immortal bodies, how can we deal with it? So far, this is the highest evil formation, the mage who sets up the formation, must use his own blood to cast spells, and there can only be one mage, it feels terrible to think about it, to use a person's blood to refine these thousands of dried corpses, and after the corpse is successfully refined, this mage will also die. Chang Shan answered, he was still very calm, that white hair was extra conspicuous in the dark, he was very similar to Mai Lao now, both of them had white hair.
"My mother, what are we waiting for? Let's go. As the big man spoke, he sprang out with a single lunge.
"Don't move."
Jiao Ba stretched out his hand to pull him, but unfortunately he was a step late, and the big man was already running to the middle of the tomb, he stopped and turned around and said, "What are you waiting for?" Let's go, isn't the main tomb just ahead? β
But just as he finished saying this, there was a muffled sound, and flames suddenly burst out on the stone walls on both sides of the tomb, and the flames soared all the way like two straight lines, and the speed was very fast, and it burned up in an instant along the stone wall from the bottom.
At that time, all of us were stunned, no one understood what was going on, and then we heard Jiao Ba say a little timidly, "Oh no, these dried corpses are going to be resurrected"
Before he could finish speaking, we saw these dried corpses hanging on the ceiling, instantly falling down in large numbers, we wanted to rush over, but it was too late, the corpses fell too fast, so we had to quickly retreat, I shouted at the same time, "Big man, come back." β
The big man stood in the middle of the burial chamber, and the dried corpses kept falling down, and soon sealed the entrance in front of them, and the corpses were just like sacks that filled the passageway, as if they were intentionally put up, and this array was still evil.
The big man was hiding in Tibet, and several times the corpse almost smashed him, and then he ran over quickly with his head in his hands, and when he retreated, he cursed in his mouth, "Damn, what's going on?" Why did this dry corpse fall down? He an egg, and almost smashed Lao Tzu. β
Jiao Ba glanced at him and said, "What do you still say, sue sΓΉ that you won't let you move, you still move, there is a mechanism in the tomb, this time it's over, the Thousand Corpses Array has been resurrected." β
"You person, don't complain about everything, I also want to get out of here as soon as possible, what did you just say? The Thousand Corpses have been resurrected? β
At the same time as the big man's voice was played, I saw with my own eyes that the corpses that were originally lying on the ground actually stood up one by one, they were different from other evil spirits, the corpses stood upright and got up instantly, without any buffer, just like the Qing Dynasty zombies in the movie, but the only difference is that their arms don't have to be stretched out, and they don't have to jump forward.
I immediately took a step back in fright, staring at this scene with wide eyes, cold sweat was already wetting my back, and when the others saw this scene, they also expressed different fears, Jenny stammered, "God, they are really resurrected." β
"Fuck, so many dried corpses, Mai Lao, is there anything you can do?" I hurriedly asked, hoping that the old fellow would have a foolproof solution.
Mai Lao stood at the front of the crowd, he pushed his glasses with his hand and said, "There is no good way, the only hope is to fight a bloody way to rush over." β
I turned my head to look at Jiao Ba and Chang Shan, they actually shook their heads, Chang Shan said softly, "Rush, everyone take their weapons well, life and death are in their own destiny." β
But the weapons in our hands are very limited, the rifles and shotguns are gone, and all that is left is a few pistols, no more than two in each of us, and there are not many bullets left, which will be an absolute tough battle for us.
"Loyalty," Li Xin whispered in my ear.
I glanced at her sideways, her face was very bad, almost pale, she held my hand hard, there seemed to be some kind of emotion in her eyes, but I couldn't understand what it meant, it seemed to be a kind of anticipation, and it seemed to be a kind of reluctance.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of you, don't be afraid, just follow my pace." I barely squeezed out a smile, this smile is probably more ugly than crying, in the face of this so-called thousand corpse array, who is sure that I will leave alive.
"Zhongyi, if I die, please sue my mother and ask her to stop waiting for me, the address is you know." Jenny said behind me.
I jerked back, "What kind of are you talking about, you won't die, we won't die, we'll get out of here alive." "Her address in the United States was already told to me last time, so what she said before should be the truth.
Jenny smiled bitterly, "I hope so, if I can still live" When she said this, she suddenly stopped, and then shook her head helplessly, "It's all at this time, I shouldn't think about those messy things, let's rush." β
"Brother Yi, are you ready? Fuck, they're coming. Jiao Ba said a little nervously.
His hand holding the gun seemed to be trembling slightly, this tomb robber looked fearless when facing the ice demon and the snow demon, but this time, he was obviously timid, and I could clearly see that cold sweat had flowed down his forehead.
The dried corpses were all up, and the expressions on their faces looked like they were looking for food, and they groped their way forward, and they made a strange sound from their mouths, and I can't describe what kind of sound it was, different from the sound of wild beasts, different from the voices of humans, and presumably only the devil would make such a hoarse sound, as if someone had pierced his throat.
