Chapter 42: The Drought in the Sarcophagus
After another interrogation, Brother Li and I basically knew the basic situation of this underground palace, and Brother Li and I agreed that Yagu and the others must be detained on the second or third floor.
After knocking out this unlucky ghost, Brother Li and I didn't hesitate, and rushed directly to the other colleagues of the unlucky ghost.
The rest of the people are ordinary security guards, and it is not difficult to get them, and almost all of them are controlled by me and Brother Li.
After finding a suitable clothes to change into, I looked at my watch and said in a hurried tone: "Let's just have an hour, it's basically useless to rescue people, just touch the situation, so that it is convenient for 215 people to move in the future." ”
"Okay, listen to you."
After that, Brother Li and I walked to the second floor.
I met a lot of people along the way, but it seemed that they were all security guards.
It wasn't until we reached the entrance of the second floor that someone stopped me and Brother Li.
"Stop, you're a group, how can you move around at will?"
Brother Li was about to make a move but was stopped by me, and after crossing the position, I looked at the guard at the door and explained softly, "It was President Cheng who ordered the two of us to come over." ”
The guard at the door was stunned for a moment, and then muttered to himself.
"Why didn't I get the notification......"
"It was a temporary notice from Mr. Cheng, and the two of us don't know the situation, otherwise you can ask Mr. Cheng?"
I looked at the guards calmly, and there was a hint of impatience in my tone, and in short, it was also very acting.
"Alright, then you two go in!"
After the guard agreed in a daze, Brother Li and I nodded, and immediately entered the second floor.
There are not many people guarding the second floor, only a dozen people scattered around, and it can be heard from their conversations that these should all be from the Yao tribe.
Brother Li and I went around the second floor and already had some understanding of the terrain.
There are 10 cells on the left and right sides, each of which is about 30 square meters in size, and food and drinking water are distributed at the appointed time every day.
The detainees were all Miao people, but strangely enough, I didn't find Xiaoxi and Xiaorou, but I saw their parents.
From this inference, then Yagu and the others must be imprisoned on the negative third floor!
"Let's go, we can't stay long, someone has noticed us!"
I tugged at Brother Li's sleeve, muttered softly, and then walked decisively towards the entrance of the second floor.
"Why don't you go to the negative third floor?"
As I walked out, I whispered to Brother Li: "I went to the entrance of the negative third floor just now, and I wanted to fool in, but I found that it didn't work at all. ”
"How doesn't it work?"
I was silent for a long time and then sighed and replied: "The guards on the negative three floors are not people at all, they are all dead corpses, and someone is controlling the corpses. ”
Brother Li also frowned after hearing this, and his heart was shocked.
And Brother Li's shock is also for a reason, although there is always a plot of chasing corpses in film and television dramas, it is not complicated to watch, as long as a piece of yellow paper.
But in fact, controlling corpses and driving corpses are completely different, although there is only a difference of one word, but the supernatural powers and cultivation required are different.
Chasing corpses is the use of spells to manipulate corpses in order to complete their own designated actions.
Controlling the corpse is completely different, the corpse control does not require a charm, but uses some so-called secret methods to achieve the same heart with the corpse.
Just as Brother Li and I were running outside with great anxiety, the alarm sounded.
The chatter on the walkie-talkie kept talking, and every group was reporting their own position, needless to say, this must be me and Brother Li's behavior was discovered.
"What should I do?"
Brother Li stood in place, a little panicked.
"You can't go back the way you came, try your luck! Go in the opposite direction. ”
With that, Brother Li and I turned around abruptly and ran towards the deepest part of the negative layer.
Because we were too nervous, and Brother Li and I were not familiar with the terrain at all, it was a mess to run, and in the end, we both were confused.
"There's no way, Nineteen, what should I do?"
Brother Li gasped and looked around cautiously.
I took a deep breath, then gritted my teeth and said, "Enter the stone gate in front." ”
"Where's a dead end!"
Brother Li shouted with a glare.
"It's a dead end to be caught, so let's do it first!"
I said yes and ran to the stone gate.
After pushing open the stone door, it was found that it was a secret room of about two hundred square meters, with a faint smell of blood and metal.
And there is also a sarcophagus hidden in the secret room, because I am afraid of touching some mechanism, so Brother Li and I did not act rashly.
"I'll have to stay here for a while, I hope they don't find this place so soon!"
I wiped the beads of sweat from my forehead and sat on the ground with some fear, gasping for air.
"Nineteen, I don't understand the Miao characters, look at what is written on this sarcophagus, whether it is the identity of the person in the coffin."
I struggled to get up and read word by word by the faint light of the flashlight.
The more I looked, the more shocked I became...... The person imprisoned in the coffin turned out to be the god of war.........
But what I can't figure out is that the Miao and Yao people believe in Chiyou, and this drought is the enemy of Chiyou, how can they be here!
It wasn't until I deciphered all the words on the stele that I finally understood why.
Although the battle between the Yellow Emperor and Chi You ended in the victory of the Yellow Emperor, the Yellow Emperor did not reward the hero of the drought because he was a demon and had a good relationship with Chi You before.
Therefore, the drought was resentful, did evil everywhere, and was finally killed by the Yellow Emperor with the Xuanyuan sword.
When the remnant soul was wandering, the drought was discovered by the descendants of the Jiuli tribe, so he returned to the Jiuli tribe with the soul of the drought fish, wanting to win over the drought fish, intending to help the children of Jiuli regain the country in the future.
And the drought was also disheartened by the Yellow Emperor, so he agreed to stay in the Jiuli tribe.
And this kind of ...... I've been waiting for countless years.
"Nineteen, according to what the sarcophagus says, this drought is also a good person!"
I nodded and replied: "Indeed, it is said that the drought is a monster, and the representative is unknown, but to be honest, the drought is also considered to be loyal and righteous, the Yellow Emperor, Chi You, he has lived up to it, I think this is why she will be accepted by the children of Jiuli after her death." ”
"Or shall we open the sarcophagus and take a look? It is said that the appearance of the drought is extremely ugly, and I have always been curious. ”
I raised my eyebrows and explained softly: "This is all a folk rumor, Chiyou has always liked the drought, and why does Chiyou need people?" is a contemporary god, a generation of heroes who can compete with the Yellow Emperor, how can such a great man like an ugly monster? This is all made up by the Yellow Emperor's dog legs in order to please the Yellow Emperor. ”
