Chapter 15: The Sword Refers to Lishan

Mo Ji sighed and continued: "It wasn't until later, when the corpse disappeared inexplicably, that I suddenly realized that I remembered the legend of the ghost soldier in the ancient book. ”

"Nether Ghost Soldiers!" Ning Xue'er couldn't help but exclaim.

Mo Zhixian nodded and said: "According to legend, in ancient times, the Yanhuang Tribal Alliance fought with the Dongyi and Jiuli Chiyou tribes in the Zhuolu Field. In this battle, the Chiyou tribe was defeated and most of them were killed. Three years later, the remnants of Chiyou made a comeback, and only more than 1,000 people fought with tens of thousands of elites of the Yanhuang army on the bank of the Yellow River for three days and three nights. After the war, the remnants of Chiyou could not find a complete corpse, and its tragic situation can be imagined. The Yellow Emperor was puzzled, and used supreme witchcraft to deduce, only to find out that the remnants of the thousand Chiyou were just corpses. This is the earliest record of the Nether Soldiers. ”

"The earliest? Wan Yan Honglie wondered.

Mo Jixian nodded and said, "It has appeared once." It was in the last years of the Qin State that the Qin general Zhang Han was ordered to organize tens of thousands of prisoners in Lishan to counterattack Zhou Wen's hundreds of thousands of troops. In the critical battle of life and death, five hundred Qin soldiers killed into the Zhou Wen army, like a fierce god descending into the world, like a hungry ghost pounced on food, did not know pain, was not afraid of death, as long as a breath remained, they would fight with all their might. These 500 dead soldiers killed Zhou Wen's hundreds of thousands of troops, which was really terrifying. This is the second account of the Nether Soldiers. ”

Yan Shan asked, "Then how can you conclude that the disappearance of this corpse is related to the Nether Ghost Soldier?"

Mo Ji replied: "When I first inspected those villagers who had taken the Ghost King Pill, I was surprised to find that the poisonous domineering was enough to make the flesh incorruptible and indestructible. This living immortal is the first step in refining the Nether Ghost Soldier. ”

Hearing this, the faces of several people changed greatly. If this is the case, there must be a shocking conspiracy behind this.

Mo Jixian continued: "After the corpse disappeared, I realized the seriousness of this matter, so I searched everywhere for the traces of the people of the Netherworld Ghost Mansion, and by the way, I cleared their henchmen outside. In the process, there are also unexpected discoveries. ”

As he spoke, Mo Jixian took out a yellowed white cloth from the mezzanine of the lyre and unfolded it on the table, which turned out to be a topographic map of Jingzhao Mansion. He pointed to the red markers on the map and said, "These are the villages that the Nether Demon Mansion people have visited. ”

Wanyan Honglie dipped his finger in the wine and connected the red markers, pointing to the same place - Lishan.

Mo Jixian nodded and said, "Yes, it's Lishan." I deduced that the Netherworld Mansion was in the middle of this mountain. But when I was about to go to Lishan, someone from the Zhao family in Zhongnan County found me and asked me to treat a seriously ill and dying old man. So, I went to Zhao's house. To my surprise, the old man was not seriously ill, but poisoned, an extremely terrifying poison - thousand-year-old corpse poison. ”

Speaking of this, Mo Jixian's palms actually broke out in cold sweat.

"What is this thousand-year-old corpse poison?" Ning Xue'er asked.

Mo Ji replied: "A poison extracted from a poisonous corpse that has existed for thousands of years. ”

Hearing this, several people couldn't help but feel creepy.

Mo Jixian's eyes became blurred, as if recalling the scene at that time, and said with emotion: "The old man's martial arts cultivation is unfathomable, and the tenacity of his vitality is the only one I have ever seen in my life. He was tormented, hardened and refused to give in. At that time, the corpse poison had spread all over the body, but the old man forcibly used his true qi to protect his heart, leaving a glimmer of hope for life. I used the technique of reversing the acupoints with the golden needle to make his blood flow backwards, and then constantly used fresh blood to flow through his internal organs, and finally awakened his mind with the pure heart song, helping his true qi in his body to guide the fresh blood back to his internal organs. This saved the old man's life. ”

Mo Jixian let out a sigh of relief and said slowly: "The key to the old man's escape is that the Zhao family continues to provide fresh blood, and the cost is incalculable. Zhao Yuanwai is indeed righteous enough. ”

Yan Shan's expression was calm, but he was suffering in his heart.

When the old man woke up, he didn't want to talk about anything before. He also warned me not to meddle in the Netherworld Mansion, saying that the matter was over. Indeed, as the old man said, after that, the Netherworld Mansion disappeared. It's just that I don't understand, why did they suddenly appear again after three years of silence?"

Yan Shan sighed lightly: "Maybe it's because the old man has passed away, so they have no scruples. ”

Mo Jixian was surprised: "After the successful blood exchange, the old man changed his life against the sky, and he was reborn, and he could live for at least thirty years. Besides, the old man's martial arts cultivation is unfathomable, and who can kill him in the whole world?"

Yan Shan said lightly: "I'm afraid that the only one who can kill him is himself, and I am the initiator." ”

Yan Shan let out a long sigh, ignoring Yan Honglie's presence, and told the ins and outs of the matter, only omitting the part where Song Yi secretly helped.

Wanyan Honglie was thrilled when he heard this, looking at this handsome young man in a short shirt, it was really difficult to associate that bloody massacre with him, his face was incredulous, and he couldn't help asking: "Are you really killing the people on both sides alone?"

Wanyan Honglie once received the documents from Zhongnan Zhixian, but he didn't expect that the truth of the matter would be like this.

"Don't be deceived by the seemingly harmless appearance. Li Ruoxian sneered.

Yan Shan smiled bitterly and nodded.

Wanyan Honglie laughed and said: "It's really a hero out of a young man, and the future is terrifying!"

"I thought the general would arrest me and go back to the lawsuit!" Yan Shan quipped.

Wanyan Honglie seemed to think of something, and laughed loudly: "I must arrest you back, there is no lawsuit, but there is as much good wine as you want! Come, today I will borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and pay tribute to Brother Yan a bowl!"

Wanyan Honglie is really a man of temperament, and personally poured a bowl of wine for Yanshan.

Yan Shan was not polite, picked up the wine bowl, and drank it all.

"Happy, happy!" Wan Yan Honglie was in a good mood.

Mo Ji smiled bitterly: "I also want to persuade Brother Yan not to blame himself for this matter, it seems that I am thinking too much, haha!"

Dugu Feng smiled lightly: "Eliminate the evil, Brother Yan is right." The death of the old man was his own choice. For the elderly, perhaps only in this way can they be freed from the sins created by Zhao Wenshan. However, for Brother Yan, even though he can face it with a smile, the torment in his heart is inevitable. ”

Dugufeng's words are whipped into the inside. Everyone present was convinced.

Yan Shan hugged his fist towards Dugu Feng and said: "Hearing Brother Dugu's words, like an empowerment, Yan Shan has been taught!"

Ning Xue'er said impatiently: "You big men, mothers-in-law, mothers-in-law, are really troublesome! According to this woman, the top priority at the moment is to find the nest of the Netherworld Ghost Mansion and destroy it in one fell swoop, so that they can no longer cause trouble to the world." What do you think?"

Several people looked at each other with a helpless expression.

Mo Jixian said: "I agree with Ning Nuxia's idea, I don't know what a few people think?"

"To eliminate harm for the people, I am duty-bound. Wanyan Honglie patted his chest and said.

Dugufeng and Yanshan also nodded in agreement.

Li Ruoxian hesitated for a moment, but also agreed.

Mo Ji looked at Wanyan Honglie idly, and said with a straight face: "General Wanyan, this time, it is very likely that you will encounter the ghost soldiers, which is probably beyond the reach of manpower." Can you bring in a lot of siege equipment to deal with the Wraith?"

"No problem. Wanyan Honglie promised.

Yan Shan added: "This trip is dangerous, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, I would like to make an appointment with the general in advance." ”

"Brother Yan, please speak!" Wan Yan Honglie looked serious.

Yan Shan said: "After we enter the mountain, we may fall into trouble at any time and cut off contact with the outside world. Therefore, we use fireworks as signals, smoke during the day, and fire at night, so that you can know if we are safe or not, and you can determine where we are. All you have to do is wait and watch for the signal from a distance. In addition, it is best to dispatch troops and equipment in secret, so as not to startle the snake. If they were allowed to escape, or break into the city, the consequences would be unimaginable. ”

After listening to Yanshan's arrangement, the rest of the people were stunned.

Wan Yan Honglie looked strange, but he didn't say anything, and left after reconfirming the agreement.
