Chapter 94: Xiangxi Corpse King
Old man Arnold said that only the dead can enter the Thousand Corpses Cave, and only the dead can find it. [Ranwen 123/\/%^.\] If Arlene doesn't want to turn into a ghost and kill her parents and the innocent villagers of the Jiang family, she can only go to the Thousand Corpses Cave with me.
She helped us find the Thousand Corpse Cave, and we helped her resolve her grievances. Fair trade, no bullying.
Only then did I realize that Old Man Arnold had this idea. But what exactly is the Thousand Corpse Cave? Why did Zhang Wuren and the people from the Special Case Department go there again?
Old man Arnold put away the black rope, pushed the bicycle to the side of the road and put it away, and then said to me, do you still want to waste time?
It dawned on me and hurriedly asked Old Arnold to get in the car. Tie Shanshan and the red-clothed lama stood next to him and bowed to the old man Arnold, and the old man nodded as if he had said hello, and then sat on the ground.
He said, I didn't think you could find two helpers, I thought you would be alone in the Thousand Corpse Cave. Well, the red-clothed lama of the Great Snow Mountain, the big girl of the Tie family.
I sat in the driver's seat and said, "Old man, when are we going to the Thousand Corpses Cave?" What do I need to prepare?
Old man Arnold said, food, water, ropes, tools, and weapons for self-defense. Fully prepared and ready to go at any time.
If we want something special, I'm afraid we will have to delay a lot of time, but the equipment he reported had already been picked up in Shijiazhuang by Tie Shanshan and consigned to Zhangjiajie.
Now these things are in the trunk of the buggy, but there are three copies.
Old man Arnold glanced at Tie Shanshan meaningfully, and said, did the Tie family want to go to the Thousand Corpses Cave for a long time?
Tie Shanshan said, you have to ask your father this question.
Old man Arnold snorted, and then said to me, do you remember Wangcorpse Ridge? Drive in that direction and we'll go there today.
My heart began to jump thumping, I don't know what happened to Lao Zhang and Colonel Di Ming, this way non-stop, just to be one step ahead.
I said as I drove, "Old man Arnold, what is the Thousand Corpses Cave?" Why is it said that the living cannot enter? What do I need to look out for inside? If there is any danger, you should make it clear to us in advance. [Ranwen 123, easy to read a new experience] Otherwise, I don't know how to die when the time comes.
Old man Arnold said, even if you don't ask, I will explain it to you. He carefully considered the language and said, when it comes to the Thousand Corpse Cave, you must first start with the Xiangxi Corpse King, you should have heard of the Xiangxi Corpse King, right?
I said of course I have heard of it, the most famous in Xiangxi is the corpse king, it is said that in the early years, some people in the deep mountains can occasionally see the opposite cliff sweeping like a flying figure, some people say that it is a wild man, but later someone approached only to find that the person who swept on the cliff was wearing ancient clothes, tall, and the black head had already turned purple.
There was not one, but many. Over time, there has been a rumor in Xiangxi that there is a zombie king here. In addition, Xiao Xiangxi has a mysterious profession of corpse chaser, which increases the authenticity of the story.
Old man Arnold said that the corpse king of Xiangxi did have something. It is said that at the end of the Song Dynasty and the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, a general surnamed Shi of the Song Dynasty fled into the mountains with the remnants of the defeated army. At that time, the Yuan army was fierce, chasing and killing along the way, and many people were cut off by the barbaric Yuan army.
However, he said that the general surnamed Shi was originally a native of Xiangxi, and after a few circles around the mountains, he threw off the Yuan army and stationed in a valley. At that time, the Song army lost soldiers and lost generals, morale was low, and from time to time people died in the barracks because of the harsh environment.
General Shi was loyal to the country, although he was defeated and lost by the Yuan army, he did not think about surrendering, but tried every means to lead people back, conquer the city, and respond to Wen Tianxiang's army.
But everyone knows how fierce Genghis Khan's descendants are, and everyone has killed thousands of troops in Moscow, and it is even easier to deal with his defeated generals with a thousand sons and 800 people.
Therefore, General Shi rushed twice in a row, but all of them were driven back to the mountains by the Yuan army, and he himself was seriously injured, and it is estimated that his life will not be long.
General Shi's injury immediately dissipated the morale of the army, and the people who served as soldiers were panicked every day, and deserters began to appear. General Shi knew that his general situation was gone, as long as he died, all his soldiers would surrender to the Yuan army.
When the time comes, Lord Wen Tianxiang will come back with his troops, who will answer them?
If you have faith, there is really nothing you can't do. On this day, General Shi was waiting for death in the camp tent when suddenly a white-bearded old man came.
It's a bit of a fairy tale, but that's exactly what Old Man Arnold said to me. He said that as soon as the white-bearded old man entered the camp, he said that he had a way to solve General Shi's troubles.
General Shi became very short-tempered because of his injuries at that time, and opened his mouth to say, can you kill the Yuan army? If you can't, I'll cut off your head!"
The white-bearded old man said, the general's life is short, even if I kill the Yuan army, you won't be able to see it. But if you die, this force will fall apart. Although my old man is not talented, he has a way to keep your army alive, to fight against the Yuan army, and to meet the army of Lord Wen Tianxiang.
General Shi said suspiciously, what way?
So the white-bearded old man got close to General Shi's ear and whispered such words. It is these words that have created the legend of the corpse king that has been passed down in Xiangxi for hundreds of years.
The old man said to General Shi, your intestines have been pierced, and you will definitely not survive without medical treatment here. But after you die, I can make you into a zombie and refuse to stay in this place.
If a person is made into a zombie, not only will his body be invulnerable, but even his strength will increase several times compared to usual. As long as the Yuan army dares to attack, your thousand zombies are enough to resist tens of thousands of troops!
When Prime Minister Wen Tianxiang's army arrives, you can rest in peace.
General Shi was tempted on the spot, his only wish now was to kill more Yuan Dynasty Tartars, so he asked the old man a few more words, and nodded in agreement.
Anyway, after my death, the army will surrender to the Yuan army, so it is better for everyone to accompany me and fight the Yuan army to the death!
The white-bearded old man was smiling and touching his beard, not knowing what was going on in his mind.
Making zombies is actually a very troublesome thing, the first thing is to have a lot of arsenic for all the soldiers to eat. Then it is integrated into the body with a variety of special drugs. Ordinary zombies are just that, General Shi, as the zombie king, can almost make people crazy with his complex and meticulous engineering.
Fortunately, General Shi was made into a zombie king by his own volition, and with the full preparation work, these soldiers hiding in the valley were all killed unknowingly.
After all the troops died, the white-bearded old man was not idle, and brought a lot of people to the valley to help, and then hid the zombie king in the place where he should be hiding, and this place is the legendary Thousand Corpse Cave.
In fact, such places can be found all over the country, and all of them are made by some folk monks. Quantities range from a few hundred to thousands. This is actually a backhand left by the Southern Song Dynasty court for the counterattack.
It's just that in the battle of Yashan, Lu Xiufu jumped into the sea with the little emperor on his back and died, and hundreds of thousands of Southern Song Dynasty soldiers and civilians did not survive.
And those zombies and ghosts who are waiting for the army to fight back have all become decorations. After a long time, many places have been made into zombies because of the geographical location is not up to standard, and all the ghost soldiers who have been made into zombies have rotted, only the most complete and largest number of ghost soldiers have been preserved in this area of Xiangxi.
The spread of the corpse king in Xiangxi is because of this.
After the old man Arnold finished speaking, he said that the Thousand Corpses Cave was located in a remote area, and it was guarded by ghost soldiers. Only the dead can be considered their companions, and the living carry yang energy on them, and anyone who enters will be brutally hit by the ghost soldiers.
And if you want to find the Thousand Corpse Cave, it is absolutely impossible for a living person, and it just so happens that Arlene wants to atone for her sins, so it is possible for us to find the Thousand Corpse Cave.
After listening to it, I was dumbfounded, it turned out that the zombie king of Xiangxi turned out to be like this. But Zhang Wuren couldn't bear what they were doing in the Thousand Corpses Cave? Catch zombies and play? People are waiting for the Southern Song Dynasty army to go north, what are you provoking people for?
Old man Arnold said that in fact, it was not the boy surnamed Zhang who was going to enter the Thousand Corpses Cave, nor was it a special case department. They didn't even know the name of the Thousand Corpses Cave before they went. The reason why he rushed in was because Gu Chai rushed in with the Little Black Sky Immeasurable Bodhisattva.
Well, old man, I guess that their nine corpse sacrifices are still missing one of the most powerful corpse kings. That's why I ventured into here and tried to capture the zombie king alive.
I'm Nima! It turns out that this group of madmen from the Dead Cult provoked it? I'll just say why Lao Zhang ran to catch zombies for no reason.
As soon as I thought of what those bastards did, I rushed up in anger, and now I went into a thousand corpse caves, and I had to beat them out!
