Chapter X

I don't know if the ghost soldier is gone, Zhen Zheng thought to himself, the two of them can't hide in the coffin for a long time, but how to get back to the ground? Zhen Zheng thought about it and pushed all the problems to An Guqi.

"Originally, I wanted to use the corpse gas in the coffin to cover up the anger on my body, but I didn't expect it to be an empty coffin. But the ghost soldiers definitely didn't dare to open the coffin. We're safe for now. Anguqi said.

"How can we get back to the ground? There are ghost soldiers everywhere, and there is no exit to be found, it seems that we can only be trapped in the coffin, but we are dead in the right place, such a grand mausoleum has no owner, and we can also occupy the magpie's nest after we die." Zhen Zheng laughed at himself.

"Let's look around to see if there is a mechanism, I suspect that the owner of the tomb used the golden cicada to escape from the coffin. An Guqi's words gave Zhen Zheng a glimmer of hope.

"Found it. Zhen Zheng found a pull ring on the side wall of the coffin, and pulled it hard, and a secret passage opened at the bottom of the coffin. The two of them burrowed into the dark passage and groped their way forward in the darkness, and after walking for an unknown amount of time, a faint light appeared in front of them.

The exit to the dark passage is in the grass near the pilgrimage of the beasts. Zhen Zheng breathed in the fresh earthy breath and felt so good to be alive.

"By the way, what did you read on the coffin?" Zhen Zheng remembered.

"A piece of history. An Guqi sighed, "That tomb is the tomb of Gu Xiu. ”

"Is it Gu Xi who fought against Emperor Kaizu three times in Yecheng?" Zhen Zheng was shocked.

"Yes, Gu Xiu was born with divine power, brave and good at fighting, even Kaizu Great Yanjing praised him as a god of war, and he was not sure to win him. Later, the ancient tribe started a war against Mingong, regardless of victory or defeat, Kaizu Emperor and Gu Xiu gambled and fought, each sent three teams of soldiers and horses to fight Yecheng three times, two wins in three games, and the defeated soldiers retreated from southern Xinjiang, never entering the Central Plains. The ancient tribes were defeated and forced to move south. Emperor Kaizu unified the Central Plains, and the Mingong people were worried that the ancient people would not keep their promises, so the Emperor Kaizu conquered the ancient people under the guise of the southern expedition, and the ancient people were defeated, but with the help of the geographical advantages of southern Xinjiang and the imperial soldiers, the Kaizu Emperor suffered heavy losses. The emperor put forward the condition that as long as Gu Xiu died, he could withdraw his troops from southern Xinjiang and never commit a crime. Gu Xiu was righteous and awe-inspiring, and decided to sacrifice himself to protect the whole clan, and the emperor personally saw Gu Xiu taking poison into the coffin, so he withdrew his troops to southern Xinjiang, and turned the huge stone soldiers into a boulder maze, and spread it in Sichuan Pass. Since then, the north and the south have been separated, and the southern Xinjiang belongs to the Central Plains, but it is in vain. Anguqi told what he had read from the coffin.

Unexpectedly, in order to deal with Gu Xiu, Emperor Kaizu actually abandoned the southern Xinjiang that had just been defeated, which shows the power of this Gu Xiu.

"There was no one in that coffin, could it be that Gu Xiu had cheated to death and then escaped from the secret passage?" Zhen Zheng felt the seriousness of the matter. If Gu Xiu is a golden cicada out of its shell, it will inevitably have a grudge against Emperor Kaizu, and with the strength of the ancient clan and the strength of Gu Xiu, it will inevitably counterattack the Central Plains. Maybe Emperor Kaizu also thought of this problem, so he let the soldiers of the giant stone guard the Sichuan Pass, so the Divine Dynasty had a thousand years of peace.

The two hurried back to the inn, and it was almost dark.

In the inn, Mu Lian and the others sat around the table, and there was no fat man. Everyone was relieved to see Zhen Zheng and the others come back safely. An Guqi told everyone about what happened on the pilgrimage of the Hundred Beasts, and of course he concealed the matter of the Black Wood Ring and the underground dormitory. Knowing that the two were chased and killed by the Shui family, everyone was very angry, and Jian Xuan took the case to kill Shui Yuan, but was stopped by An Guqi.

"The Shui Family's southbound regiment has lost a general, I'm afraid they won't dare to deal with us anymore. Let's not persecute the Shui family, lest the Shui family dog jump off the wall in a hurry. An Guqi analyzed.

"But the fat man may have been killed by the Shui family. Jian Xuan sighed.

"What!" Zhen Zheng and the others were shocked.

"I received a package, and it turned out to be a bloody garment, fat one. Mu Lian said.

"Damn, he actually killed our chef, it seems that the Shui family really doesn't want us to go south smoothly, this revenge must be avenged. Zhen Zheng thought of the fat man who always liked to call himself "Lao Zheng", and said indignantly.

The next day, everyone came to the inn where the Shui family was located, and found that the door was closed, and the inn was temporarily closed.

Everyone was puzzled, who killed the people of the Shui family, and quietly killed them, and the Shui family Ma was wiped out for a few hours before he was discovered by the shopkeeper, which shows the strength of the assassin.

No matter who killed the people of the Shui family, the Mu family's southbound group was very happy to see it, so it was the provincial they did it, and the fat man's revenge was indirectly avenged.

The Mujia Southbound Group planned to recruit another chef, but An Guqi volunteered and took the initiative to ask for help, and everyone expressed doubts about An Guqi's cooking skills, and An Guqi immediately made a specialty dish, which shocked everyone.

Everyone looked at the so-called specialty dish that was black and scorched on the plate, and no one refused to be the first to move the chopsticks, and finally An Guqi ordered Jian Xuan to taste the food, but Mu Lian decisively wrote a recruitment notice; Jian Xuan lay in bed for two days and suffered from anorexia.

The new chef's name is He Shuyuan, and his cooking skills are superb, and after Jian Xuan ate An Guqi's specialty dish, he was cured of anorexia and picky eating. Shuyuan has a beautiful appearance, and she is as her name suggests, if the fat man is still alive, she must be drooling again when she sees her.

A red flower suddenly appeared among the many green leaves, which encouraged everyone, boosted their morale, and everyone looked forward to the future trip to the south. Mu Lian thought silently in his heart, fat man, your death is still valuable.

Everyone wondered why a beautiful and weak woman wanted to go south, and the team was full of men. Shuyuan just said lightly: "There are many demon beasts in the south, I want to use their meat to make delicious, you should be able to guarantee the ingredients, right? "Everyone is ashamed, they actually want to use demon beasts as ingredients, it seems that this Shuyuan's heart is not as delicate as it looks.

"I can guarantee that in the future, the task of capturing demon beasts will be handed over to Jian Xuan. Mu Lian asserted that Jian Xuan was about to object, but Mu Lian whispered to him: "If she leaves, you will only have to eat the food cooked by An Guqi." Jian Xuan's face turned green, and he happily agreed: "If Miss Shuyuan wants to eat any demon beast in the future, she will catch it below." ”

After resting for two days, the newly formed Mujia southbound group continued to embark on the southbound road.

On the southbound road, Shuyuan walked in the middle, protected by the stars like the moon, An Guqi was quite disdainful of this, and said to Zhen Zheng: "She is so good-looking, your soul is about to be hooked away." ”

Zhen Zheng said awe-inspiringly: "It is the unshirkable responsibility of a husband to protect a weak woman. He added, "Lao An, don't be so serious, in this deep mountain and old forest, you can have such a beautiful woman by your side, you can be content." Zhen Zheng also began to call An Guqi "Lao An" to express his sorrow for the dead fat man.

"Hurry up, Jian Xuan, get that one, and that one. "Shuyuan is like a little girl, pointing at the monsters around her, wanting to make all the monsters she has never seen into food. This made Jian Xuan bitter, and even more bitter to the innocent demon beasts around him, just to see a little girl pointing at him, and then a figure flashed, and finally he turned into a table of food.

Shuyuan's monster feast was delicious, everyone was addicted to it, and they disdained ordinary game, not only were they not afraid when they saw the monster, but there was a faint green light in their eyes, and the corners of their mouths were salivating.

The murderous fame of Jian Xuan and Shuyuan has spread in this area of the demon beast world, and there have even been demon beasts who fainted when they saw the two of them. The demon beasts avoided everyone one after another, and it was almost difficult for the southbound people to encounter the demon beasts along the way, and Jian Xuan and Shuyuan had to go far to catch the demon beasts.

As soon as they said, Jian Xuan and Shuyuan went out to capture "food" and did not return for a long time, and everyone couldn't help but worry that Zhen Zheng and An Guqi followed the path taken by Jian Xuan and the others.

The two walked to a cave and found fragments of Jian Xuan's clothes, it seems that Jian Xuan and the others entered the cave, and they were afraid that they would encounter danger and hid in the cave for refuge.

Zhen Zheng and the others walked into the cave and found that there were two entrances, and they were hesitating which one to take, but Jian Xuan walked out of the cave on the right. I saw that Jian Xuan's shirt was broken, the corners of his mouth were bleeding, and he was supporting his body with a sword, obviously after a hard fight.

"Jian Xuan, where is Shuyuan?" Zhen Zheng said worriedly.

"There are many demon beasts in it, but I have eliminated them, but Shuyuan was injured and fainted, I am also seriously injured, I can't carry her out, you guys hurry up and go in and carry her out." Jian Xuan said weakly.

"Okay, you wait here, let's go check it out first. Zhen Zheng said.

"Wait, it's a trap, he's not a sword Xuan. Anguqi shouted.

"Of course I'm Jian Xuan, you guys hurry up and go in and take a look, I'm worried that there are monsters inside, and Shuyuan is in danger. Jian Xuan argued.

"Jian Xuan has a green dragon tattoo on his left arm, but you don't. You deliberately left the fragments of Jian Xuan's clothes at the entrance of the cave to lure us into a fool and try to wipe us out. An Guqi said coldly.

"Jian Xuan" saw that he had been recognized, and he no longer pretended. Turning into a wolf-like youkai, he fled into the hole on the right side of the cave as if flying.

"That one just now should be the Nine Phantom Wolves, a kind of demon who is good at changing his body, and he can change into the appearance of the person he sees at will, he should have seen Jian Xuan. An Gu Qi said, "But we can't enter the cave on the right, there must be deception in it, we go to the left, and the two of them may enter the stone cave on the left." ”
