On the edge of the green light, an old man, a young woman and a woman, the three of them meditated on the spot, arranged in a zigzag pattern, and there were words in their mouths. Because www.biquge.info of the distance, and because of the distance, and their voices were so small, they couldn't hear what was being said at all.

Crash...... Crash......

Listening to the sound of chains clattering, my heart was disturbed. Their eyes were full of tears, and they couldn't see what was emitting green light, and every step the strong men took looked extremely heavy.

Merry whispered, "I grew up on the Yangtze River, and I've heard such a legend. Every month on the day when the yin air is at its heaviest, the fishermen living on the shore will never come near the shore at night. After 12 o'clock in the evening, the sound of iron chains crashing will be heard on the Yangtze River. It is said that the ghost king travels, and if there are people nearby, they will be caught pulling fiber. ”

"What are you trying to say? It's still a few hundred kilometers from the Yangtze River!" I asked.

"I know, pretty much, are we safe here?" asked Merry.

Gray finally found an opportunity and said, "It's definitely not safe, it's still too late for you to leave now, maybe something will happen in a while!"

Merry snorted and leaned over to me.

Crash...... Crash......

The sound of chains was getting closer, and I wiped away my tears and rubbed my eyes. When I opened my eyes and looked again, I saw a particularly cruel scene.

The arms of the strong men who were pulling the chains were cut off, and heavy shackles were fastened around their necks. A section of the chain pierced the skin and hung on the bone. The position is not the same, some are strung on the vertebrae at the back of the neck, some are hung directly on the ribs, and the most likely iron ring is directly buckled to the head, and I am worried that he will use too much force and lift off the skull

These people should have some thoughts, the wound pierced by the chain has long been rotten, and the bones under the skin are directly exposed. The iron ring was rusty, and it was going to merge with the bones.

Merry glanced over and a night breeze blew, carrying a strong smell of corpses for two years. Greyham and I can live it, but Merry can't. She covered her mouth and was about to throw up.

Gray hurriedly said: "Hold back, don't let out your voice, otherwise you will fall short." ”

The strong man is indeed very close to us. I was worried that they would see it, but when I got closer, I realized that their eyes were sealed with threads and they couldn't see anything at all.

Merry didn't notice the details, just covered his mouth and didn't make a sound. Both eyes were red, and tears were rolling in the circles.

I probably knew how painful it was, but she survived, and I admired her a little. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to do it.

Strong men passed in front of us one by one, the closest being less than five meters. When I got closer, I found that the height and body shape of the strong man were basically the same. It's not sure for sure that they were from that dynasty, but I think it would definitely not be easy to grow so tall in ancient times, and there were definitely not many people like this. Unless it was deliberately raised by the nobles.

I lay on the ground, and the ground trembled with every step they took. I counted carefully, and there were nine strong men in the first row, and five in the second row. Nine more in the next row and five in the fourth. This arrangement is clearly intended for some purpose.

The strong man passed in front of us and was downwind, and the smell of corpses in the air slowly dissipated, and I opened my mouth wide to take a breath of fresh air.

"Nine after five, then nine-five, what's the point?" Gray whispered.

Hearing him repeat the numbers over and over again, it dawned on me that I could think of a possibility that made my whole body tremble with excitement.

Merry saw it and said, "Are you electrocuted?

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!" said Gray, "he must have thought of something important, don't interrupt his train of thought." ”

I lowered my voice and said, "Nine-five-nine-five, don't you think of anything?"

"I know Sanwu, it's a cigarette brand, what is Nine-Five?" asked Merry, a little dazed.

Gray scratched his head and said, "Nine-five-four-five?"

I glanced at the two of them, and Gray didn't know, which I expected, and Merry didn't either, so I couldn't say anything.

Crash...... Crash......

Before the sound of the chains stopped, Gray urged eagerly, "Tell me quickly, what does Ninety-Five mean?"

"Ninety-five Supreme! on behalf of the emperor!" I said, "In ancient China, numbers were divided into yang and yin, with odd numbers being yang and even numbers being yin. Nine is the highest in the yang number, and five is in the middle, so nine and five symbolize the authority of the emperor, which is called the ninety-five supreme. ”

The term comes up a lot in court dramas on TV, and with a little attention, you'll know what's going on.

Of course, there is another way to say that the Ninety-Five Supreme, "Zhou Yi" is one of the oldest classics in China, and has always been revered as the first of the six classics

。 Zhou Yizhong said that China has 14 dragons, nine earth dragons, five water dragons, the ancient emperor believed that 'the dragon chant majestic worship, the world is the only one', so it is called the 'ninety-five supreme' or 'the true dragon son of heaven'.

In any case, the arrangement of the strong men according to this number series is enough to explain the problem.

"You mean they're pulling an emperor?" Gray finally reacted.

I nodded, at least nine percent sure. In ancient times, people paid a lot of attention to it, and the emperor's name had to be avoided, and if he wrote a wrong word, he might lose his head. If you use the number of ninety-five, it will not be one person who will die, and the whole clan will hang their heads.

"Shhhhhhhhh

The green light has dimmed, there must be a big guy.

My eyes widened, and I didn't dare to catch my breath, and a huge silhouette appeared in the green light, about three stories above the ground. And that's probably just the tip of the iceberg.

The shadows in the green light continued to expand, and finally a part of it was revealed.

The tiger has a beard and a manetail, a body as long as a snake, scales like a fish, horns like a deer, and claws like a dragon and an eagle. This is a domineering dragon. There is more than one such dragon, there are nine dragons in total. It's all made of metal, and it reflects an eerie green light.

The nine dragons hovered together, and underneath the nine dragons there was a huge metal body that looked like a coffin. Nine dragons are coiled corpses, and now I am 100% sure that there is an emperor in the coffin.

Gray stared at the corpse of Nine Dragons for a long time before he came back to his senses, drooling and said, "These metals should be copper, no wonder they are so heavy." ”

This thing is too simple, and before I can speak, Merry said: "What are you kidding, how can the emperor use copper, it must be gold!"

"Huang ...... Yellow...... Gold ...... "Gray is a little uneasy to speak, I was shocked, this gold alone can be rich to rival the country. I think I can exclude some of the emperors of the weak dynasties.

The eyes of the three of us were focused on the corpse of the Nine Dragons, and we never looked away. The nine dragons are in different forms, and the production is lifelike, each of which is extremely domineering, and has a momentum that swallows the world.

Gray suddenly folded his hands, made a prayer, closed his eyes, and said very reverently: "Don't have anything to do with the Chu State! I don't want to encounter anything related to the Chu State again!"

Merry heard it and asked curiously, "What's wrong with Chu State, why don't you want to have a relationship with Chu State?"

"If it is related to the state of Chu, you may die!" said Gray in a deep voice.

Merry thought seriously for a while, but still didn't understand, and asked, "Why?"

"Uh......" Gray didn't know how to speak. I was shocked into a cold sweat by Gray's prayers, and it was best not to have anything to do with the state of Chu. At present, there are no clues pointing to the state of Chu, which is a good thing.

"It's all quiet!" I said, "The corpse of the Nine Dragons pulled by the strong man is about to reach the highway, and the three of them have also moved. ”

Under our gaze, the trio who were meditating cross-legged stood up, and the green light gradually dimmed. The three of them slowly followed, and also returned to the road.

We were distracted for a moment, and almost in an instant, the corpse of the Nine Dragons disappeared without a trace, and the big guy disappeared right under our noses.
