Chapter 25: In the Mausoleum
As soon as Liu Xuan's words came out, Yu Linlang, who was accompanying him, immediately pulled out the ring knife on his waist, only to hear a burst of choking sounds, and he didn't know if it was because of the night pearl inlaid in the ceiling.
Diao Chan also held a pair of pumpkin hammers in his hands, but his small hands were clenched tightly, and he stared into the distance with his chin slightly raised, as if he was nervous.
Think about it, after all, Diao Chan is still a little girl, and she has been living in a high-gate mansion before, where have you seen such a scene?
Even though I have learned martial arts, I have never fought with people in real life after all, and at this time, when encountering unexpected situations, nervousness is inevitable.
Liu Xuan patted Diao Chan's shoulder slightly, and then stroked her back: "Don't worry, it's not a fierce monster, it's just a few puppets!"
He didn't deliberately lower his voice when he said this, so everyone heard it clearly, Shi Daoren was stunned when he heard this, and then thought of something. However, the surrounding soldiers were puzzled, not knowing what Bai Zi meant by this.
However, there was no need for Liu Xuan to bother to explain, because everyone saw a few figures walking slowly not far away.
"People?"
Because the distance is a bit far, and although there is light, it seems a little dim, and everyone can only see the figure, but they can't see the appearance of the person opposite.
Only Liu Xuan's cultivation is strong, his eyesight is excellent, and he can see it clearly, but he didn't pay any attention to the dozens of figures who came slowly, and turned his head to Qin Yilu and commanded: "Although the enemy who came over is not an ordinary person, but the strength is not much higher than that of ordinary people, and you are enough to deal with it!"
When Qin Yilu heard the Son of Heaven commanding this, he knew that he was going to play by himself this time, nodded to Huang Zhong beside him, and strode to the front, in front of Zhong Yu Lin Lang.
Yulin Lang is a special establishment in the Yulin Army, with only one hundred and twenty-eight people, all of whom are orphans left by the warriors, who have been taught and cultivated by the imperial court since childhood, and served as the emperor's close guard when they grew up.
Although it belongs to the formation of the Yulin Cavalry, even the General of the Yulin Zhonglang (the current General of the Yulin) is difficult to command and call at will, but directly obeys the emperor's orders.
It is the strongest and most trusted soldier beside the emperor.
These one hundred and twenty-eight people are all skilled in martial arts, because they are not capable enough, they will not be selected into Yu Linlang at all, so these one hundred and twenty-eight people stand there, and there is a faint illusion that thousands of troops and horses are in front. It seems that no matter how strong the enemy is, he can't crush the formation of more than 120 people.
Liu Xuan came out this time, only brought a few dozen people, and only brought a smaller part of them to the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, leaving some to protect Cai Yan and his two younger brothers.
At this time, these Yu Linlang stood in front, standing in a semicircle, blocking Liu Xuan and Diao Chan behind them.
In this way, the dozens of figures on the opposite side have come closer, and everyone finally saw the appearance of these people clearly, and at the same time they were surprised and finally understood what the Son of Heaven meant: "Puppet!"
These dozens of figures all look the same, and there is no difference between the eyebrows. This is not to say that these dozens of people are brothers, but because these dozens of people are all clay sculptures of the same mold.
And it is this group of clay sculptures that actually walk freely like ordinary people, and at the same time they are holding soldiers step by step to everyone. The pace was the same, the queue was neat, and there was a faint killing aura coming from the battle array.
"Doesn't seem to be in the wrong place, and the dirt soldier ...... It's clearly the famous Terracotta Army!"
As for why these terracotta warriors and horses moved, Liu Xuan couldn't see it for a while, unless he dismantled one and then looked at it carefully, but he could detect that it was related to the overall layout of this mausoleum and the dragon qi of the Qin Dynasty that was trapped in this tomb.
After he came in, he didn't stand here in a daze, he had been trying to find the dragon qi of the Qin Dynasty that Shi Daoren said, but after looking for a while, he couldn't find anything at all except for a vague sense of induction.
The situation in this tomb was very weird, it seemed to be full of dragon energy, but it didn't seem to have any dragon energy at all, which made Liu Xuan feel very awkward.
After determining the general direction, he directly gave up the induction, so as not to get upset the more he searched.
"Kill these clay puppet soldiers first!"
Raising his eyes and looking again, Qin Yilu had already strode out, and the ring knife in his hand brought a brilliant sword light, and directly cut off the head of a terracotta warrior with one sword.
Qin Yilu finished using the knife, but his strength was not exhausted, his wrist turned around, and then he ran towards another terracotta warrior and horse, but just when he turned around and waved the knife, the corner of his eye found that the terracotta warriors and horses that had been stabbed by him before did not fall, but turned around, raised the Changge in his hand and swept towards him.
"What's going on?"
hurriedly took a step back, then twisted his body to dodge, and the knife in his hand was erected to protect his side, which only then stopped the swept Changge.
After such a moment's vacancy, Qin Yilu quickly swept around and found that the surrounding Yu Linlang had also encountered a similar situation to himself.
These Yu Lin Lang all went up with a knife or slashed their heads or broken arms, but every terracotta warrior who was hit hard seemed to be fine, and immediately fought back.
If it weren't for the fact that Yu Lin Lang was the elite of the elite, he might have lost several people by this photo. But even so, a few people were injured, and one person accidentally rushed violently, and after stabbing into the body of the terracotta warriors, he was grabbed by the terracotta warriors and horses by the arm, unable to draw the knife and unable to retreat, and then was surrounded by three or four terracotta warriors and horses and chopped into meat puree with Changge.
"Gross!~"
Seeing such a tragic situation, Diao Chan immediately felt a tumbling in her stomach, if it weren't for Liu Xuan who had been taking care of her, and seeing that she was unwell, he immediately helped her with dragon qi to recuperate, and she might have vomited on the spot.
"Don't let you come, you know it's awesome now, right?"
Liu Xuan didn't care about this, and joked softly, Diao Chan felt weak at this time, and she didn't have the heart to say anything to Liu Xuan, and at the same time, she was also worried that those terracotta warriors and horses were so weird and strong, would they be in danger of them?
But in reality, these worries are unnecessary. Liu Xuan asked Yu Linlang to go up to meet the enemy, but he was actually in the idea of training this group of elite soldiers - the Tiger Ben Army, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and the Yulin Cavalry all had to be cultivated and improved, and Yu Linlang, as the emperor's closest guard, naturally had to cultivate.
But before that, Liu Xuan intended to continue to train this group of soldiers!
The terracotta warriors and horses are an excellent choice - in terms of strength, they are similar to this group of Yu Lin Lang, and the only peculiarity is that this seems to be the peculiarity of not being able to cut down.
Considering that he might not necessarily encounter any kind of enemies in the future, letting these soldiers accept these strange situations as soon as possible would help them better improve their strength, so Liu Xuan simply threw them up to fight with the Terracotta Army.
"If you perform well, you will naturally train yourself. If you can't perform, it's better to give up your position as soon as possible......"
There are only one hundred and twenty-eight people in Yu Linlang, and Liu Xuan wants the elite of the elite, and he doesn't need those who are incapable or incapacitated.
Maybe this will seem a little cruel, but as Yu Linlang, it is destined to be so, otherwise what is the use of Liu Xuan raising them?
Liu Xuan was not very satisfied with the conflict just now, but he was not disappointed! Suddenly, when he encountered this situation, he only had one person and injured a few people, which was already good.
As for Qin Yilu's performance, Liu Xuan was not very satisfied, although this product was average, but he had been by his side for a while, but his performance was still only slightly stronger than that of ordinary generals, and he hadn't even comprehended any of his abilities until now.
"After all, it just left a disgraceful name in history, or because of his wife......"
Sighing, I realized that I expected too much from him, after all, not everyone who can leave a name in history is a genius.
Liu Xuan stood there and watched for a while, Yu Linlang had already fought a few people one after another, but soon they understood the difficulty of these terracotta warriors, and at the same time knew how to deal with them. And this is thanks to the mention of Huang Zhong, who has been standing next to him, to cut off his hands and feet, even if the terracotta warriors and horses can still move, they can't hurt anyone.
With a clear combat plan, and Yu Linlang and these people have known each other since childhood, and they are all together in training on weekdays, they are familiar with each other, and they can naturally burst out with stronger combat power when they cooperate, so although the number of people is at a disadvantage, they will soon cut down these dozens of terracotta warriors and horses to the ground.
Liu Xuan took advantage of this time to pick up a broken arm and observe it.
As soon as I lifted it, I saw the internal skeleton of the terracotta warriors and horses that was hidden by dirt at first glance: "Wood is the bone, and the soil is the flesh and blood." ”
Shi Daoren stood aside, and when he heard Liu Xuan's words, he immediately exclaimed: "I see, these puppets are driven by the dragon qi of the Qin Dynasty!"
"Oh?"
"The Qin Emperor believed in the Five Elements Doctrine and believed that the Qin Dynasty belonged to the water virtue, so the Qin Dynasty advocated black and other things that should belong to the water of the five elements!" Then he pointed to the severed limb: "Although this puppet is made of wood as a bone, the water in the five elements is wood, and the use of water to drive wood is also in line with the essence of the Five Elements Technique." ”
Liu Xuan nodded, knowing that the principle of this spell was nothing more than using the dragon qi that was suppressed in this tomb and then echoing with these terracotta warriors, of course, it had to cooperate with the corresponding talisman formation, and then achieve the purpose of driving these puppets to deal with the intruders.
In other words, the suppressed dragon qi is the power source of the terracotta warriors!
"This man is a talent!"
After understanding all this, Liu Xuan admired the monk who designed and built the entire Qin Emperor's Mausoleum.
"I don't know if this man is still alive or not, but if he is alive, I will let him be of my use. (To be continued)
