Chapter 423: The Ghost in the Tomb
Chapter 423
"Your Highness, all the enemy troops around the tomb have been cleared." Fan Xu walked to Qin Xi's side with a blood-stained lance in his hand.
Qin Xi looked at the tomb door that had been opened, it was dark and faint, like a giant beast with its bloody mouth open, waiting for a greedy person to enter its belly.
Fan Xu saw Qin Xi looking at the tomb motionless, so he asked, "Your Highness, did the enemy general really go in?" Or we will go in too, and this will be a tomb, so that they will have a place to live after they die. Qin Xi shook his head and said, "You go to the village in person and ask Zhao Yi to pull two ballistas over." ”
"Your Highness, aren't we going in?" Fan asked him. Xiahou Ying came over and said: "This tomb is the home of the deceased, if you go in, you will trespass on the Yin House, and you will lose your life." ”
"I know, I know, don't we also want to catch the enemy general and earn some credit. Without further ado, I'll go to the village. Fan Hao said as he got on his horse and hurried to the village.
"Your Highness, is there anything wrong with this tomb?" Xiahou Ying was much more delicate than Fan Xu, and she could see the worry in Qin Xi's expression.
Qin Xi said lightly: "I always feel that there is something wrong with this tomb, and I have a very terrible feeling." Xiahou Ying glanced at the tomb and said, "Your Highness, aren't all these tombs like this?" What's so strange. ”
"There's always something uneasy." Qin Xi raised his head and looked at it and said, "It's so late, so they have been in for almost four hours, more than three hundred people, shouldn't it, is this tomb so big?" ”
"Your Highness, maybe you have a mechanism." Fan Xu said.
"Even if there are organs, it can't be so long, not to mention that the strength of the enemy's generals who are infinitely close to the terrain realm can't be stumped by just a few organs. There must be something strange in this, tell my brother, cheer up! ”
"No!" As the sky grew dark, Qin Xi ordered someone to light two fires at the entrance of the tomb. In fact, there are two situations in which the people in the tomb did not come out, one is that they really encountered something in the tomb, and the other is that they noticed that there was a situation above, so they hid in the tomb and did not dare to come out.
But Qin Xi felt that the first possibility was the most likely, because after the village side was dealt with, after Qin Xi used his body to come over, the Qianfu Elder Zhu only took someone to do it, and Qin Xi had been staring at the tomb from the tree, and no one had ever come out.
After dark, Zhao Yi moved the two crossbow carts over, and then according to Qin Xi's instructions, he went to the front of the tomb, and two crossbow arrows thicker than his arms were aimed at the entrance of the tomb.
Zhao Yi looked at the tomb, looked at Qin Xi and said, "Your Highness, how do I feel that this tomb is a little weird." Qin Xi asked, "Is it arranged over there in the village?" ”
"It has been arranged, and the rest of the grain and grass will be burned at dawn tomorrow." Zhao Yi said.
"Well, as soon as the grain and grass are burned here, Xiang Liang will soon get the news. Our best bet is to march into the army and join the army. But we want to do the opposite and go directly to Xiang Liang's base camp Dongxuan! Qin Xi said.
"Your Highness, isn't it a little too risky? Once our army enters Donghui, it will have to face the remnants of Zhao, Wei and Chu at the same time, but our army is isolated and helpless, and once there is a problem, I am afraid that something big will happen. Zhao Yi said.
"I've already arranged this matter, just go ahead with the plan." Qin Xi said. Suddenly, a sound of wind came from the tomb.
Then, a cold wind with a foul smell blew out. After smelling this, Qin Xi couldn't help but pinch his nose, it was just too unpleasant.
Suddenly, Lao Zhu shouted, "Not good! It's a corpse stench! The contents of this tomb are dead! Qin Xi looked at Lao Zhu, only to see Lao Zhu shouting, "Your Highness! I have to close the tomb door quickly, and the remnants of the Chu State who entered are afraid that they will all become ghouls! ”
"Help!" Suddenly, a miserable cry for help came from the tomb of the black hole, which frightened everyone and shuddered.
Qin Xi snatched the torch of the soldier next to him, and then threw it directly into the tomb, and suddenly everything in the tomb was illuminated.
Seeing the situation inside, everyone immediately took a breath of cold air. I saw a few flesh-and-blood people, grabbing a soldier who was screaming and gnawing continuously, and even the intestines were torn out.
The Qin Xi at the front recognized that it was the general, but at this time, half of the bones of his face were exposed, and only half of his head was left like his helmet.
After the ghoul dragon saw Qin Xi, he roared and rushed out.
"Shoot the arrows!" Zhao Yi shouted angrily, and two crossbow arrows shot out at the same time, shooting the ghoul dragon back and shooting through the group of ghouls behind.
"Zhao Yi! Come with me and close the door! ”
"No!" Qin Xi and Zhao Yi jumped down at the same time, and the two of them used their whole body internal force to slowly close the stone gate.
At the moment when it was about to be closed, the hand that had been skinless stretched out.
"Zhao Yi! Get out of the way! After Qin Xi saw that Zhao Yi quickly got out of the way, he pulled out the Heavenly Dome and cut off the arm, and then slapped it in with a palm of internal force, only to hear something being slapped away.
"Off!" Qin Xi shouted loudly and put the stone gate
"Boom" shut up. At this time, Lao Zhu grabbed a rooster left by the enemy army and jumped down, and said, "Your Highness, general, let go." After Qin Xi pulled Zhao Yi back slightly, Lao Zhu pulled the chicken head violently and directly ripped off the chicken head, and the chicken blood suddenly sprayed on the stone gate, dyeing the stone door red.
After the blood was sprayed, Lao Zhu threw the head and body of the chicken and said to the soldiers, "Throw them into the fire and burn them." ”
"Yes, yes!" The onlookers above were frightened and hurriedly picked them up and threw them into the fire. After the three of them climbed up, Qin Xi looked at Lao Zhu and asked, "What should I do next?" Lao Zhu wrapped his arm in a cloth and said, "Bury this place, and then put these chickens in this forest, as long as no one opens this stone gate again, it will be fine in one or two hundred years." Qin Xi looked at Zhao Yi and said, "Do what Lao Zhu said." ”
"No!" Qin Xi looked at Lao Zhu and said, "Lao Zhu, come here." Qin Xi took Lao Zhu to the fire, pulled Lao Zhu to sit down, and asked, "Lao Zhu, why do you know so much about this?" Lao Zhu put down his arm and arched his hand and said: "Don't hide it from Your Highness, my ancestors were in the business of robbing tombs, until my father was arrested in Qi State, and after my father fled to Qin State, he didn't dare to do this business anymore, but when I was bored, I always talked about this, and I learned it over time." ”
"I see, what is going on in this tomb?" Qin Xi asked.
"This subordinate doesn't know very well, but I remember that my father once said that if the owner of the tomb is buried alive, after eating the carrion buried in the tomb, after death, he may become a ghoul. And as long as you are bitten by this ghoul, you will also become a ghoul. Lao Zhu recalled.
Qin Xi looked at the half-amputated arm and asked, "What are you doing with this thing?" Lao Zhu picked up the arm and said with a smile: "Your Highness, this arm is a good thing." When we marched in the forest, as long as this arm was on our body, no beast within a radius of ten miles would dare to come near us. ”
"There is still this kind of miraculous effect, the world is so big, it's really amazing." Qin Xi shook his head and said.
