Chapter 156: The Undertaker's Weirdness (8000)
When the whimpering sound came out, the temperature of the entire burial chamber seemed to drop sharply, and it became cold.
Xu Bai put down the black knife in his hand, but when he put it down, he had already raised the black knife slightly, and the entire bronze coffin lid was picked up by him.
"The atmosphere team is very active."
A black shadow came out of the coffin, turned into an afterimage, and pounced on Xu Bai, the speed was staggering, and it was already in front of Xu Bai in the blink of an eye.
Xu Bai turned the black knife and cracked, and the fragments seemed to turn into a long whip, and slammed into this black shadow, and the black shadow was attacked, and flew out directly, rolling a long distance before stopping.
At this time, Xu Bai also saw the appearance of the black shadow clearly.
No longer bones, but a dried corpse skin, covered with bones, looks like an absurd shelf.
The clothes on his body are torn, and he can't see the specific shape, but there are different pendants hanging on his neck and hands.
Around the neck of the dried corpse hung a necklace made of unknown rope and a ring of animal teeth.
There are also animal teeth on the wrists and ankles, which look like a sense of savagery, and with the terrifying shape of the dried corpse, it gives people an extremely absurd feeling.
"This beast tooth ......" Ye Zi seemed to think of something, and said, "Childe, this should be a barbarian person."
The barbarians are also the trouble of the Great Chu State.
At the beginning of the establishment of the Great Chu State, it belonged to the rhythm of internal and external troubles, and at that time, there was the Great Yue Kingdom outside, and there were barbarian people who wanted to devour the Great Chu State and establish themselves as kings.
If it weren't for the fact that the original emperor was very decisive and used the people on the rivers and lakes to unite, I am afraid that the recent situation of the Great Chu State would have been even more severe at that time.
But even if these threats were kept out, they did not disperse for a long time, and in the border lands, there was often friction between the Great Chu and Great Yue Kingdoms, as well as the barbarian people.
Now hearing Ye Zi say this, Xu Bai has an idea, could it be that this is the tomb of the barbarians? But why did the barbarian tomb come to Fenghua Prefecture of the Great Motherland?
This is a big suspicion, but at present, Xu Bai can't think of a clue to solve it, and more importantly, the dry corpse that has just been repelled pounced again, as if he doesn't know the pain machine.
"It's strong, Sanpin." Xu Bai's surging road.
The fragments scattered everywhere, as he finished saying this, seemed to be induced, and the next moment, these fragments spun up rapidly, with boundless power and melodious music, enveloping the dry corpse in front of him.
The qi is intertwined, like a black cloud pressing down on the city, wanting to destroy everything.
Being in the center of the Gang Qi, driven by the fragments, each fragment penetrated the body of the dried corpse.
In less than a breath, the dried corpse in front of him fell to the ground, and there was no movement.
Very strong dry corpse, pawn.
Ye Zi covered his face, very helpless.
Childe is good at everything, and he treats people very gently, but this temperament is easy to offend people.
At first, it was very strong, but this so-called was very strong, and I didn't even hit a face.
Ye Zi felt that he was okay, the stronger the son, the happier he was, and it was the kind of happiness that could not be said. ….
But if a genius is here, I'm afraid I can't wait to eat Xu Bai at this moment.
Xu Bai actually didn't talk nonsense, it is indeed very strong, in this kind of place that is not the main tomb, you can encounter the weirdness of the three products, it is false to say that it is not strong.
Any young man who comes to this place will have to fight here for 300 rounds.
But in the final analysis, this dried corpse met Xu Bai, a person who used the strength of the third product to overturn the first product.
The surrounding fragments closed and turned into a black blade, regrouped on the hilt, Xu Bai put the knife back into its sheath and walked to the coffin.
This guy turned out to be a barbarian, so the more mysterious this tomb becomes.
Now all the places have been seen, and there is no passage, except for the last coffin.
When Xu Bai was in the coffin, he saw that there was still a board under the coffin.
Xu Bai stretched out his hand and knocked on this board, and there was a hollow echo, unlike other coffins, it was empty underneath.
The empty one proves that there is space below, that is, the passage has to go down.
Xu Bai took out a black knife and cracked it, and slammed it on the stone slab below.
The next moment, the slab shattered, and a staircase appeared before him, leading to the dark underground.
Xu Bai narrowed his eyes, looked up and down, and beckoned to Ye Zi.
Ye Zi stepped forward and glanced at the dark staircase.
"You're after me." Xu Bai said.
Ye Zi nodded and silently followed behind Xu Bai.
The four-rank puppet is still walking at the back, playing the role of the broken queen.
When Xu Bai stepped into the stairs with the first step, nothing abnormal appeared, it was just a simple staircase, which looked no different.
The passage where the stairs are located is very dark, and there is not much space inside, and a normal person can touch the walls on both sides if they raise their hands flat.
Xu Bai tried it, holding his hands flat just enough to touch, he was about to walk forward, but the next moment, he found that what he touched was not normal.
The walls on both sides are not smooth, but have bumps and depressions, and it feels as if something is inlaid on them.
Ye Zi followed behind Xu Bai, and when he saw Xu Bai's situation, he raised his hands wisely and sensibly, and there were white silk threads interlaced between his ten fingers, illuminating the surrounding darkness.
As the light lit up, Xu Bai also saw the surrounding situation clearly.
On the walls on both sides, there are carved sculptures, which look very distinct.
Since it has been underground, it has not been eroded by strong winds, so it can be seen clearly.
Men dressed in barbarian clothes, armed with weapons in their hands, sat on war horses, and rushed through a city.
The picture on both sides can be perfectly coherent, one city after another is washed and slaughtered by them, leaving behind the devastated and mountain-like corpses, but these corpses are wearing the clothes of ordinary people.
The people wailed and knelt on the ground, raising their hands as if to pray for God's protection.
Blood, flames, smoke, corpses, these landscapes are constantly merging and constructing in them.
A scene is engraved on the mural, like purgatory on earth.
"It's really inappropriate!" Xu Bai frowned. ….
After entering the rivers and lakes, he killed a lot of people, but basically did not kill these unarmed ordinary people.
War, there will always be deaths, but in Xu Bai's view, this kind of endless killing has nothing to do with war.
The faces of the barbarians depicted on the floating withering are also very vivid.
Each of them had excitement on their faces, as if killing these ordinary people would bring them excitement.
It's not for war, it's for that perverted lust.
Ye Zi also saw this scene, his mountain-like chest rose and fell slightly, walked to Xu Bai's side, and said, "Childe, barbarian people are like this."
"In their eyes, there is no difference between people other than them and food, they only know killing, and even worship this kind of killing."
"Carved on frescoes like this is also a way for them to show their so-called glory."
As he spoke, Ye Zi pointed to a mural with a barbarian man carrying a military flag.
There were a few words written on the military flag, but it was the barbarian script, and Xu Bai didn't know it.
Ye Zi knows, after all, there are too many and miscellaneous things from childhood to college, and there are many things that can be taken out and used.
"This is the Akagi tribe, the one killed by the prince just now should be a thousand household chiefs."
The Akagi tribe is the text I saw on the mural of the military flag just now.
And the head of a thousand households is Ye Zi's guess.
Tribes are the way of life of barbarians.
They are long-term
In the past, they lived in the land of barbarians, and did not build new countries, but lived in groups of tribes.
A tribe can have as few hundred people, as many as a few thousand, and even tens of thousands of people.
The head of a thousand households, this is the official position of these barbarians.
A head of a thousand households, with thousands of people under his command.
"The Akagi Tribe?" Xu Bai touched his chin and said, "It seems that this may be the tomb of the leader of this tribe."
If, according to Ye Zi's description, a thousand household chiefs can only be blocked outside, then there must be important barbarian people buried here, and the leader is a good guess.
"Keep going." Xu Bai hid this clue in his heart, continued to raise his feet, and walked inside.
Along the way, the carvings on both sides of the wall have not stopped, and most of them are similar, but they are just similar, and they are not repeated, which means that this so-called Akagi tribe has created boundless killing
Kill, just because they like it.
Xu Bai said that on today's trip, just taking this passage has made him gloomy.
After walking for about a stick of incense, there was finally a new change ahead.
At the very end of this passage to the underground is a bronze door, which is tightly closed and intricately carved with patterns.
Just looking at the pattern, there was a fierce aura rushing to the face, and in the concave and convex parts of the pattern, there were some black blood marks that had dried up.
"I heard that these barbarian people like to water things with blood to show their so-called strength, it seems that Gongzi guessed correctly, this may really be a barbarian tomb." Ye Zi looked at it for a while and said.
Xu Bai nodded: "Behind the bronze door, it is estimated that there is something big waiting for me." ….
He pulled out the black knife and stretched out his hand, slapping the bronze door lightly with the knife, and there was a crisp sound of blowing.
Other than that, no other sound came out.
Xu Bai swung out a knife, and the fragments hit the bronze door, and the next moment, the bronze door directly shattered, turning into debris all over the sky.
When the bronze door was breached, Xu Bai suddenly shrank.
A feeling of extreme danger came, and he hurriedly took a step back, even pulling Ye Zi back.
Behind the bronze door is a vast space filled with dense coffins that are circular and arched in the center, and in the center is a huge coffin twice the size of an ordinary coffin.
The huge coffin also had intricate patterns on it, but in addition to the patterns, in front of the coffin, a man dressed in ordinary clothes was kneeling with his back to him.
Kneeling position, facing the huge coffin and facing the exit of the underground passage on the back.
Next to the man, there was also a black shovel.
"Shovel?" Xu Bai frowned and said, "Could it be that this is the gravedigger who robbed the tomb?"
The feeling of danger just now has not disappeared, and not only that, but it is gradually spreading.
He couldn't figure out where the danger was here, but he always felt that if he stepped out, he would encounter something terrible.
"Ye Zi, you stay here." Xu Bai beckoned to the four-rank puppet behind him.
The four-grade puppet took down the package behind it and handed it to Xu Bai, who then handed it to Ye Zi's arms.
Ye Zi was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, he hurriedly said, "Childe, it's very weird here, don't take risks."
Xu Bai smiled, "Of course I won't take any chances."
As he finished saying this, the four-rank puppet who had already handed over the things moved, raised his feet, and walked towards the outside of the passage.
Since you feel the danger, then send someone to take a look, the most suitable place is the four-grade puppet.
The four-rank puppet has no life, it is he who controls it, uses it to explore, and that is the best.
When the four-rank puppet stepped out under Xu Bai's manipulation, the next moment, Xu Bai saw that the danger was approaching.
In front of Xu Bai's eyes, a thin layer of mist suddenly appeared on the ground, the mist was white, and it looked peaceful
There was no difference between the usual fog, but as the fog swept in, the four-rank puppet standing on the ground suddenly stopped.
Then, where the four-rank puppet stood, there was a burst of squeaks.
At the position of the feet of the four-rank puppet, after touching the mist on the ground, it turned black.
"Looks like this is a mechanism, and it's highly poisonous." Xu Bai knew how to use poison, and he could see that at a glance this mist was highly poisonous, and the dangerous feeling just now came from this.
But the level of poison he possessed was still too low, and he didn't see what poison it was, let alone a solution.
Xu Bai frowned, now it seems that he seems to be stuck, just because of the poisonous fog in front of him, he was directly stuck.
At this time, the gravedigger who had been kneeling in front of the coffin finally moved, he turned his head and looked at Xu Bai's position with a mocking smile on his face.
Strangely, those white mist did not go around him, but stopped around him and did not erode him. ….
"Lord Xu, I didn't expect you to really come over, do you want to come in and sit down?" The gravedigger's voice was mocking, but what he said was like a host's greeting to a guest.
Xu Bai touched his chin and said, "You are the person behind the scenes, you are the fastest exposed compared to what you dealt with me before."
"No way, who let me have an inner ghost here? But it doesn't matter, I can achieve my goal." The gravedigger said slowly.
With the same smile on his face, he still maintained a kneeling posture, but his head turned fiercely in Xu Bai's direction.
"Lord Xu is mighty and powerful, in the rivers and lakes of the Great Chu Kingdom, there has been a storm and water, I don't know if I feel a sense of powerlessness now." The gravedigger continued to taunt, as if such a taunt would give him endless pleasure.
"Nope." Xu Bai said very simply.
The gravedigger was slightly stunned, he didn't expect that Xu Bai would play his cards out of common sense.
"I see, are you hiding your incompetence? I watched myself fail, so I wanted to cover it up."
"Not really." Xu Bai spread his hands and said, "I didn't fail, why would I hide it?"
The gravedigger was stunned, he pointed to the fog around him in disbelief: "You still say that there is no failure, can you come in and hit me, you can't, I know your knife is very strange and can be turned into pieces, but I can tell you that these fogs are incorruptible, you can try."
As he spoke, the four-rank puppet had turned into debris all over the ground.
The mist rose and filled the surroundings, but he couldn't cross into the passage where Xu Bai was.
In this era, all burial chambers must leave a way to live.
Its purpose is also very simple, in case any of the descendants of the unscrupulous appear to be annoying, this may become the basis for their turnaround, and now it seems that this channel is a way to live.
In the white mist, the voice of a gravedigger was heard.
"This poison, the wind cannot be dispersed, under a product, you will die if you touch it, and you will never be able to attack it."
"Just wait ten days, and when I melt into this corpse, it's your nightmare."
"You said no, but I have to let you have it!"
Hearing this, Xu Bai smiled and said, "It seems that your ultimate goal is to integrate into this corpse, is this corpse important?"
The gravedigger did not answer, did not speak at all, and apparently knew that if he said too much, he would lose.
The scene fell into an eerie silence.
Xu Bai found a place to sit down, looked not far ahead, and said, "Now come out obediently, I'll give you a chance to live."
The gravedigger still didn't answer, apparently he took Xu Bai's words as a deaf ear.
Ye Ziliu frowned slightly, the current situation is very dangerous, the other party is like a turtle shell, and he doesn't come out at all.
I don't know why, but my son-in-law is calm, as if the other party doesn't come out, but gives him a chance.
Yes, that's how it feels.
She even saw Childe sit down, for a long time, and stared intently ahead.
But Ye Zi didn't say anything, didn't ask anything.
To follow Childe, you only need to exert your residual heat, and the rest is to trust Childe unconditionally.
Even if it's death, it doesn't matter. ….
When she learned that Childe had disappeared, she herself planned to finish the road and sink to the bottom of the river forever.
So...... Ye Zi naturally walked next to Xu Bai, also sat down, held Xu Bai's arm with both hands, and leaned on Xu Bai's shoulder.
"That's good, too." Ye Zi thought to himself.
It's too noisy outside, and it's nice to be quiet all of a sudden now.
Xu Bai touched Ye Zi's head, and stared intently ahead.
In fact, if this kind of moment happened, he must have turned around and left, because there was really no way to get in.
If you can't get in, you're still working here, it's a waste of time.
But...... It's different now.
Through the white mist, he could see the huge coffin, looming.
And along with the looming of the coffin, there is also a golden progress bar directly above.
The golden progress bar is there, so it's a fart!
Isn't it better for the liver here?
And looking at the rhythm of this progress bar, it is definitely a good skill, not to mention anything else, the degree of slowness alone is different.
I heard the gravedigger say just now that it will take ten days, so in these ten days, he can completely fill the progress bar first.
This progress bar appears on the giant coffin, and may be able to resolve the fog here.
By that time...... Hey.
Boy, I see how arrogant you are.
The master will kill you.
With such a villain idea, the more Xu Bai looked at the progress bar, the more energetic he felt.
But sometimes, the more you try to settle down and give the progress bar to the liver, the more reality won't let you do it.
Xu Bai's dream is to have an endless progress bar every day, but now it seems that something has happened again.
"Stomp Tread ......"
Behind Xu Bai, there was a series of footsteps in the underground passage.
"At this time, someone came in this place?" Xu Bai was slightly surprised, stood up, and turned his head to look behind him.
Then, the corners of Xu Bai's mouth twitched slightly.
Behind him, a group of people ran towards him, a large area of black pressing, at least a few hundred, lined up in a long line, and filled the passage.
These people are men and women, old and young, but they have one thing in common, that is, they have transparent silk threads wrapped around their limbs.
"Lord Xu, I'm here to help you!"
The group of people made a deafening sound in unison, shaking the underground passage slightly.
Xu Bai: "......"
These people ...... Seems to be the soul controller?
As soon as he thought this, a group of people stopped in front of him.
Standing at the forefront is a woman controlled by silk threads.
The woman glanced at Xu Bai and said, "Lord Xu, I'm here to help you!"
Xu Bai was about to speak, but unexpectedly, Ye Zi pulled his sleeve.
"Childe, be careful, I suspect that he is not a soul control master, and a soul control master must be able to control so many people, and he doesn't know how strong his strength is." Ye Zi whispered.
"Oh?" Xu Bai's eyes condensed slightly, looking at this group of people.
At this time, the woman in the lead covered her mouth with her hand, and under the control of the silk thread, she slowly spoke: "Sure enough, it is worthy of being a member of the Ye family, and this knowledge is indeed very profound."
Ye Zi raised her head, white light appeared in her hand, if there was anything abnormal in the other party, she would play a life-urging magic sound first. ….
The woman at the head turned around, clasped her hands into fists, solemnly saluted Xu Bai, and said loudly: "Enter the Wen family, Wen Si, I have seen Lord Xu."
Xu Bai looked at the woman with interest, and at the same time looked at Ye Zi.
Ye Zi
was also slightly stunned, and after feeling Xu Bai's gaze, he said, "The undertaker is an extremely ancient trade......
Then, she explained the various circumstances of the mortuary to Xu Bai one by one.
Xu Bai listened, his eyes wandering over these people.
After listening to everything, he realized that these so-called people were not people, they were all corpses.
The undertaker, similar to the soul control master, is control, but it is more high-end than the soul control master.
The soul controller is to take the soul of others, while the undertaker is based on the soul of the other party, and exerts control on this basis.
The soul controller can control the living, but the undertaker can control the living and the dead.
Of course, there is a specialization in the art industry, and the mortuary master is not as strong as the soul control master, they mainly control the dead.
When a person just died, the soul was not completely dispersed, and at that time, the mortuary used this as the basis to control it.
As for the various special doorways, they are the essence of the mortuary, and outsiders do not know about it.
The Wen family is one of the mortuary families, but this family has long been submerged in the years.
Of course, there is more than one Wen family in the mortuary.
"Without further ado, what is your purpose?" Xu Bai said.
The controlled female corpse, temporarily known as Wen Si, said without hesitation after hearing Xu Bai's question.
"Revive the Wen family."
Four simple words, with a sonorous and powerful flavor.
Xu Bai narrowed his eyes and said, "Do you think I'm very good at coaxing, why don't you first tell me why the Wen family collapsed, and you are the only one left."
Wen Si said: "The Wen family offended Your Majesty, and even hit the idea on those who died for the Great Chu State, so Your Majesty secretly sent people to destroy all the people."
"But at the beginning, the Wen family was also loyal to the Great Chu State, so His Majesty did not tear off the last fig leaf of the Wen family, and did not say what the Wen family did."
"In this way, you and His Majesty the Emperor are both at war with each other." Xu Bai said.
Wen Si shook his head and said, "No, then everything is the fault of the Wen family, I am the only one living in the Wen family, I want to pick up the family again, and I want to complete this step, the most important thing is to regain His Majesty's trust, if I help Lord Xu, there will be no problem."
Xu Bai raised his eyebrows and didn't say anything more.
The matter has been explained clearly, but Xu Bai is not a three-year-old child, and he will not believe the other party's words.
None of this mattered, the important thing was that he wanted to see how Wince had cleared the fog in front of him.
In fact, he can sit here and continue the liver progress bar, and wait until the time is perfect and the progress bar is complete, and then see if there is a way to break it.
But now that someone can solve it, of course he is happy to see it happen.
If nothing else, stability is the most important thing.
As for this Winth...... We'll talk about that later. ….
Wen Si said, "Lord Xu, I know you can't believe me, but how do you see how I perform next?"
Xu Bai waved his hand, full of indifference, meaning to watch your performance.
He and Ye Zi slightly moved out of the way.
Wen Si turned and waved at the dense corpses behind him.
The next moment, the group of corpses one after another, without hesitation, burrowed into the fog of confusion.
Xu Bai was slightly surprised when he saw this scene, he didn't expect the other party to use this method to crack it.
"Most of the barbarians practice those combat techniques and practices, such as feng shui or tombs, although they can also do them, but after all, they are almost detailed." Winth explained slowly.
"For example, this poisonous mist has no roots and no evidence, and if it is all absorbed by people, there will be no risk, so I let these corpses absorb it, and there is no loss."
As each corpse rushed into the mist, the white mist was rapidly decreasing, and when the last corpse was completely in, the white mist was complete
Gone.
Wen Si turned his head, clenched his fists and said, "Lord Xu, I've solved it."
Xu Bai glanced inside, and the sense of danger hovering in his heart was gone.
The gravedigger, who was kneeling in front of him, also noticed the change, turned his head in shock, and clenched his fists when he saw Winth.
"Undertaker!"
The feeling of extreme danger hovered over the gravedigger's heart, the white mist was gone, and he lost his trust.
But he didn't leave here, but continued to maintain this position, as if once he left, he would lose immensely.
Xu Bai pointed at Wen Si and said, "You go in first."
Wen Si knew that Xu Bai was testing him, nodded and stepped into it.
There are no anomalies and no dangers.
"Lord Xu, it's okay." Wen Sidao.
"Kill him." Xu Bai pointed to the gravedigger again.
At this moment, Wen Si was stunned.
She was a little surprised and said, "Lord Xu, aren't you coming in?"
"Why did I come in?" Xu Bai smiled and said, "Isn't it in line with your idea of making meritorious contributions to help me do things inside?"
Although that feeling of danger is gone, it doesn't mean that there are no new dangers, not to mention that he is not at ease with this guy.
Wen Si froze in place, his face cloudy.
Xu Bai teased, "You don't want to trick me in, and then deal with me."
"I have heard for a long time that Lord Xu was born cautious, and it seems that this is indeed the case." Wen Sidao.
Xu Bai continued, "I just don't believe that a family that was once killed by the emperor will trust the emperor again, you can't be so stupid."
Wenth fell silent.
Obviously, this sentence hit her mind directly.
After a while, she pointed to the coffin not far away and said, "Lord Xu is really far-sighted, so let's make a deal, I will kill this person for you, and then I will take the corpse inside?"
Xu Bai narrowed his eyes.
Take the corpse.
Combined with Wen Si's current business, it seems that he wants to manipulate this corpse, no matter what the identity of the corpse inside is, this kind of big scene alone is absolutely extraordinary.
"Lord Xu, you don't have a choice." Wen Si said slowly, "I can go and get this corpse directly, and the reason why I have discussed it with you is because I don't want to make enemies with you."
"The surrounding white mist was indeed absorbed by my corpses, and the corpses were completely turned into ashes, but that doesn't mean that I can't get the white mist out again after it turns into ashes."
"Because, as long as there is a trace of the corpse's remnant soul, it can be completely reversed, and this is the subtlety of the mortuary."
As she spoke, she snapped her fingers.
Not far away, a handful of white mist suddenly burst out, but it quickly disappeared again.
Xu Bai sighed and said, "Then you can take it directly, don't care about my feelings, no problem, no problem, you can take it directly."
It's as if he's very understanding and doesn't care at all.
The gravediggers looked left and right, and some did not understand the current situation, and always felt that the situation was developing faster and faster.
Aren't these two people together, why are they intriguing now?
No, that's not the point at all.
The gravedigger lowered his head and secretly thought about a way to break the game.
The other side.
Although he said that, Xu Bai didn't move half a step, and still stood at the exit of the passage.
This posture is like a goalkeeper, guarding the door with peace of mind.
Wince's expression became strange.
Xu Bai's voice changed, and his tone was teasing: "Why, give you a chance, you don't use it."
"With such a large burial chamber, I can't be the only one...... It's the only exit, right?"
Love to sleep lazy
Read on, and look forward to the excitement to continue!
