Chapter 1061: The One Who Wants Immortality
Chapter 1061: The One Who Wants Immortality
There are too many queues coming and going in Longxing Mountain, which makes people feel like they have strayed into an ant nest. The faces of the soldiers were full of tiredness, and it was clear that they had been here for a long time. What's even more suffocating is that everyone here doesn't speak, just works in silence.
The group followed Zhang Yuan along the newly paved road to the mountain, and encountered a strange team on the way. More silent than the soldiers who picked up the dirt, everyone's face was extremely bad, but they were clearly not tired, but a fear that lurked behind the numbness.
They showed weakness to the people who came and went, and drove the horses down the hill one by one. Because the road has just been paved and the soil is still very soft, vehicles cannot get up. The horses were carrying things on their backs, sacks one by one. An Zheng's brows furrowed as he passed by, and the smell of blood came from the sack.
Although it was late at night, An Zheng noticed that blood seeped out of the sack. The line was long, and it looked like there were at least a few hundred horses, each carrying at least two or three sacks on their backs, that is...... Something happened in front, and almost a thousand people died inside.
It's just building an altar, how can so many people die?
"Don't look around, don't talk nonsense. ”
Zhang Yuan glanced at An Zheng coldly, and then strode out.
An Zheng looked at the others, and it was obvious that they had all sensed that something was wrong, and everyone's faces were not good. Xiahou Changshu is not the kind of little girl who will be scared when she encounters something, but under this suffocating and depressing atmosphere, she still feels a chill on her back, and her palms are full of cold sweat. She subconsciously pulled An Zheng's hand, but An Zheng subconsciously avoided it. At this moment, Xiahou Changshu felt that there seemed to be an invisible world between him and An Zheng.
An Zheng knew that Xiahou Changshu was scared, and smiled at her.
This smile made Xiahou Changshu's heart gradually rise a little warmer. She guessed that maybe it was because her previous attitude towards An Zheng made him feel a little cold, after all, she didn't stand on An Zheng's side when she was in the auction house.
An Zheng didn't really have any hostility towards this woman, at least she wasn't as violent as the other ancients. Judging from her attitude towards the people of Daxi, she is not a bad person.
As he walked, the front hooves of a colt in front of him suddenly sank into the soft earth, and the sack on the horse's back rolled down as soon as it tilted. The mouth of the sack was not tied too tightly, and the body inside fell out as it rolled down the hillside.
When An Zheng saw the corpse, his heart sank involuntarily.
The corpse looked pale, as if it had been drained of blood. The corpse was densely packed with wounds, and each wound was not big, not like a knife wound, but more like something bitten out, so the wounds were not big but extremely tragic.
"Ahh
Xiahou Changshu screamed in fright, and the corpse was rolling not far from him.
This exclamation attracted the attention of everyone nearby, and the originally silent mountain seemed to explode as if a thunderclap had exploded. Soon, however, everyone withdrew their gaze and continued to do their own thing, as if they had become accustomed to it. An Zheng looked at those people and felt that there were no souls in their bodies, like walking corpses one by one.
Zhang Yuan walked over quickly, drew his knife and hacked the soldier leading the horse to death: "If there is another accident, a team of people will die." ”
A soldier not far away ran over, silently knocked the body into a new sack, and two men carried it on the horse's back, and then continued to drive the horse down the mountain. There was still no one to speak, and the silence was still terrible.
Yuan Zhi and Lu Yuan walked at the back, the two of them lowered their voices and chatted, and An Zheng's tone was also full of doubt and fear.
"What the hell is going on in this Longxing Mountain, it's definitely not as simple as building an altar. If it was just engineering, how could so many people die? And if you look at the expressions and attitudes of these people, they are obviously used to it. That is, it is possible that so many people will die every day, and every day there will be such a team to send corpses down the mountain. ”
When Yuan Zhi said these words, he had been wary of Zhang Yuan, who was walking in the forefront.
After all, he is not one of those old ministers of the Wei State, he surrendered to the Cao family later, and when his father was at his peak in the past, the people of the Cao family had to be respectful when they saw his father. It was only later that his family was defeated, and the Cao family took the opportunity to defeat the Yuan family in one fell swoop. It can be said that half of the Cao family's current strength is because the Yuan family was defeated. At least a million troops surrendered, plus a group of fierce generals who could fight well, and a group of strategists with superior wisdom became the courtiers of the Cao family.
Lu Yuan tugged at his sleeve and motioned for him to stop talking.
Yuan Zhi seemed to feel something, and his face was very bad: "Don't be afraid of anything, I always feel that the people who came up this time may not go back alive." It's just that I have been burdened by you, and I already knew that the people of the Cao family would not let me go. Sooner or later, I will die, otherwise how can Cao Cheng rest assured that my family's millions of elites and hundreds of fierce generals. ”
Lu Yuan sighed: "Maybe what you said is right, this time it's a conspiracy." ”
Yuan Zhidao: "Look at those soldiers, like the walking dead, they have obviously taken care of life and death. The people of the Cao family have always been ambitious, and don't forget, Cao Cheng's father, Cao Po, who is known as the world's number one hero, is what he is best at. ”
Lu Yuan's face changed obviously: "Isn't Cao Po already dead?"
"What does this have to do with whether he dies or not, Cao Cheng has completely inherited his father's ruthlessness and viciousness, and he does things regardless of the cost. When Cao Po and my father were fighting for the world, the army was less than one-tenth of my father's, there was not enough food and grass, and the military funds were scarce, and the team didn't even have food to eat, have you forgotten what he did at that time?"
"How can you forget ......?"
Lu Yuan sighed: "That is the shame of my life. ”
At that time, Cao Po's army was in a predicament, the grain and grass military resources were almost cut off, and they were surrounded by the Yuan family's army. At this time, Cao Po did not hesitate to risk being scolded by the people of the world and forcibly opened the imperial tomb of the Han Empire......
Lu Yuan was in his prime at that time, young but already famous in the rivers and lakes, and was a famous treasure master. At that time, Cao Po sent people to travel 800 miles at night, arrested Lu Yuan from his home, and entered the imperial tomb together, stealing a large number of magic weapons, materials, and countless treasures.
Lu Yuan suddenly reacted: "You mean, this is not building an altar at all, but digging an ancient tomb?"
Yuan Zhi lowered his voice and said, "Look at the surrounding terrain......"
Lu Yuan didn't care about it before, and when he heard Yuan Zhi's reminder, he hurriedly looked around, and after a while, his face changed: "No, this is the place where the murderer is hidden...... In this place, who would build a tomb here, it's impossible. If this place is used as a tomb, the descendants will only be afraid of suffering, and there is a danger of destroying the door. The qi of the eight directions gathered here, and the terrain is too cloudy, which is not suitable for tombs. ”
"Perhaps. ”
Yuan Zhi said with a worried face: "I hope I guessed wrong." ”
After the team was halfway up the mountain, Zhang Yuan asked them to stop and wait in the same place, and he personally led the team to send Qianyuanbi to the top of the mountain. From this position, the view down the mountain is even more spectacular, and the teams coming and going are like fire dragons meandering and crawling around the mountain.
Xiahou Changshu subconsciously stood beside An Zheng, and after being silent for a while, he said cautiously: "If you notice something wrong for a while, you will leave immediately." I know you've hidden your cultivation and you're stronger than all of them, but this place is really too dangerous. ”
"What do you actually know?"
Ann asked.
Xiahou Changshu looked at Yuan Zhi and Lu Yuan, who were deliberately hiding from a distance to avoid them, and then said to An Zheng in a very soft voice: "Before the Ancient Immortal Clan came to this era, they actually experienced some strange things. I heard from my father that one day someone suddenly came from outside the territory and upset the balance of space. So much so that a shocking event happened, but it was forcibly suppressed by Lord Sima, so it was not spread. ”
"Father said that that day His Majesty took some outsiders to that very mysterious place, and there was a strange person imprisoned in it, in fact, that strange person was the founding emperor of Great Wei...... Because of an accident, their father and son ...... Both father and son were killed. It is rumored that Zhao Xuan, the super strong man of Shu Kingdom, did it, and he was not caught later. Zhao Xuan was the strongest cultivator in Shu, and after Lu Jinyi's death, he could be said to be invincible in the world. ”
"But it's strange that my father saw the bodies of His Majesty, the two emperors of Great Wei, with his own eyes, but it didn't take long for His Majesty to be resurrected. After His Majesty's resurrection, the Ancient Immortal Clan suddenly descended into this era. ”
Xiahou Changshu let out a long sigh: "I thought that the war would be gone away, and there would be no more disasters, but after this era, the bloodthirstiness in the bones of those generals and even those civil officials in the Great Wei was stimulated again." The Great Wei Emperor was even more ...... It's changed. After that death, he became very, very ......."
She sorted out the wording, but she still didn't know how to describe it.
An Zheng gave her a look that I understood, and Xiahou Changshu glanced at An Zheng gratefully, she couldn't say that the Great Wei Emperor had been perverted.
"I suspect that this altar has something to do with his twisted desire for immortality that he has had since that day. ”
An Zheng's eyes signaled not to say any more, Xiahou Chang Shu was relieved for a moment, and then saw Zhang Yuan coming down from the mountain with people. By this time, the sky had gradually brightened, and the air was filled with the smell of fresh earth that the soil had just been turned over. A large-scale movement of people began to appear at the foot of the mountain, apparently changing shifts.
"Ladies and gentlemen, go up with me, don't ask anything after meeting Your Majesty for a while, and you will do whatever Your Majesty tells you to do. ”
"Yes. ”
Xiahou Changshu nodded hurriedly, but only heard his own voice. Whether it was An Zheng, Yuan Zhi, Lu Yuan or Su Xiangnan, none of them answered. Zhang Yuan didn't care, and continued to walk up the mountain with them.
But at this moment, there was a sudden bang in the distance, and the whole mountain shook, followed by a red light shot out of the mountain. There was an irresistible power in the red light, and after sweeping it, at least a few hundred people who were in the vicinity were killed. As soon as the red light dissipated, the entire hillside turned black. Then a roar came out of the mountain like the roar of a wild beast, and the large rocks on the hillside began to roll down. The mountain fell almost 100 meters high, and the soldiers who were going up and down the mountain were buried alive.
"Demons!"
Zhang Yuan snorted, his eyes full of murderous energy.
Yuan Zhi and Lu Yuan glanced at each other, and they both saw fear in each other's eyes.
Everyone fell silent, just looking down at the road under their feet and walking up the mountain. When he was about to reach the top of the mountain, An Zheng saw that in the open space not far from a welcoming pine, there were almost hundreds of people gathered. Judging from the clothes of these people, none of them are people in the army, some wear brocade clothes and some wear cloth clothes, and their identities are different. The difference between these people and the soldiers was that their faces were full of worry and fear.
"It's almost all together. ”
Zhang Yuan said a word to the person guarding the entrance of a cave.
That person An Zheng had seen it, but fortunately he was wearing a mask this time, otherwise he might have been recognized at a glance.
The person from the Great Wei Tingwei Mansion is a very beautiful woman, but the whole person is as cold as a long sword out of the sheath. She stood at the mouth of the cave as if she had sealed it with a sword. No one wanted to stand very close to her, as if they were afraid of being cut by the cold on her body.
Tingwei Mansion, Cao Rouge.
