Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 237 Another figure! (4000)

"Qi (teng two tone) technique?"

Hearing Yu Ji's words, everyone looked over in surprise.

Even Wu Liang reacted for a while, and then speculated that what Yu Ji said might be the word "Qi Shu".

In the later generations of Wu Liang's life, the qi technique, Gu poison, and head lowering technique were listed as the three major sorceries in southern Yunnan. However, few people in the later generations knew about this kind of magic. Most of them come from the Southeast Asian region where this technique was once popular, and it is almost impossible to conduct textual research.

But looking at the reactions of Cao Ang, Bai Jingjing, Dian Wei and others now, they seem to be very unfamiliar with this kind of magic.

As far as Wu Liang knew, the principle of this kind of sorcery was somewhat similar to that of poisonous poison. They used special means to attach human resentment or desire to poisonous insects, and then used the poisonous insects themselves or their eggs to harm others.

The stronger the attached resentment and desire, the better the effect of harming people, but killing people's lives without anyone noticing...

There is only so much information he knows about the "Surgery", and whether it is true or not is still unknown.

Because there are some rumors in later generations that although the magic trick originated in the celestial dynasty, it is completely different from other ancient sorcery, such as the "spell of delusion".

There is no record related to "Qishu" in the ancient books or even unofficial histories discovered by later generations, and even this term has never been seen before, and no one can tell when it appeared in the rumors of later generations. Where did it come from.

So those rumors of later generations may not be completely credible.

But now that these two words are spoken by Yuji, an aborigine of the Eastern Han Dynasty, their meanings are completely different.

"Exactly!"

Facing everyone's eyes, Yu Ji's old face wrinkled even tighter, swallowed and said, "As far as I know, this is a kind of sorcery that uses the resentment of the dead as a primer and insect eggs as a carrier."

"The object of this kind of magic must be a living person. Once the living person swallows the eggs, the eggs will quickly hatch and multiply in the living person, and the human organs and flesh are the nourishment for these worms and eggs. , so that it will be eaten in a few days, leaving only an empty shell like a bark stone shell."

"When the gnats eat up all the organs and flesh in the human body, and then seal the remaining empty shells, a closed environment will be formed, and the eggs that have not yet hatched will stop hatching, and they have been sleeping since then. state, and those gnats will die right away, and gradually transform into the nutrients needed to preserve and maintain the sleeping state of the eggs, so that these eggs will not die or rot for a thousand years, until the outer shell of human skin is destroyed."

"in addition."

"It is also extremely difficult to cultivate the eggs of this kind of worm that can perform the killing technique, because this kind of worm itself is not poisonous, nor does it have the ability to do anything wrong in a living human body."

"Therefore, the performer still needs to find many women, use a special unknown method to impregnate the women with worm eggs, and use the most cruel means to torture these women to death when they are about to give birth in October, so that the women will die before they die. The fear and resentment of her will pass through her body into the eggs she laid when she died, so that the gnats will be poisonous and can be used for gnawing."

"In addition, the stronger the resentment passed into the eggs, the more poisonous the hatched insects will be."

"It is also because of this that if the caster wants to obtain more poisonous eggs, they often have to do the same thing to kill many women, so that the resentment introduced into the eggs increases layer by layer, so that they can kill people within the predetermined time. The degree of death is considered a qualified suffocation."

Speaking of this, Yu Ji finally stopped, looking at everyone with a pair of old eyes flickering.

"Guru..."

Everyone swallowed unconsciously, and unknowingly took a few steps back, trying to stay as far away as possible from the pool of foul-smelling liquid on the ground, and those maggot-like fat bodies that had crawled out of the corpses. gnats.

"It's indeed a wicked sorcery, and anyone who casts it should be shredded into pieces!"

Cao Ang's face was already slightly pale, and he gritted his teeth and clenched his fists as he said.

In fact, he is not a good man and a believer. He has killed many people on the battlefield, and he has seen many bloody scenes, but when he heard Yu Ji's description, he still felt chills down his spine.

If necessary, he can order the massacre of the city without hesitation.

Because this is a war for power and power, there is no right or wrong and no mercy, the winner is justice.

But if he wanted to use such cruel means to mutilate a person, he really couldn't do it. Even if he really had a deeply hated enemy, he would let the other person die happily.

But when everyone was digesting Yu Ji's description about the "Qi Shu", Wu Liang asked a very critical question very rationally: "Mr., is this realgar afraid of the realgar we carry?"

"This... the old man can't say well."

Yu Ji shook his head helplessly.

"Then we'll have to try it out."

Wu Liang immediately stepped forward and sprinkled a small handful of realgar powder on some of the bugs that had crawled out.

"His-"

When the realgar powder fell on the gnats, the worms rolled over immediately, writhing their bodies crazily like a loach that has landed on the shore, and made strange noises from their mouths at the same time.

But after more than ten seconds of tumbling like this, Xu Shi had quickly gotten used to this kind of stimulation from the outside world, and then wriggled slowly, and was not killed because of it, and he didn't even see any injuries on his body. trace.

"It doesn't seem to work..."

Realgar still has some effect, but the effect is really limited, and it cannot kill these gnats.

Wu Liang soon thought of salt again. Salt has a miraculous effect on dealing with worm-like creatures, like snails or slugs in later generations. Just sprinkle a little salt on them to quickly dehydrate their bodies and kill them effortlessly. .

And these worms look a lot like an unknown worm, maybe you can refer to this method...

"How about this, everyone first take out the realgar that you carry with you, use the realgar to create a prison, try to trap these bugs here, so as not to be harmed by them."

Wu Liang could only shake his head helplessly, and then said to Cao Ang, "Brother Zixiu, please send these two brothers out to help us get some salt, this thing may be able to deal with gnats."

"Salt?"

Although Cao Ang didn't quite understand the principle, he immediately asked again, "How much?"

Wu Liang looked at the dozens of tombs in this tomb, and then looked at the other two tomb passages that hadn't been explored in time, and said, "Try to bring as many as you can, why don't you bring five pots first."

If those tombs were full of dead insects, he planned to kill them all.

This kind of thing is not only of no archaeological value, but it will be a disaster at any time. It is the right way to destroy it as soon as possible, and it can also ensure that they will not be threatened in this tomb robbery.

"It's a trivial matter, just send someone to pass the order."

Cao Ang nodded, then turned around and ordered to a personal guard: "Just go, ask some people to bring all the salt we brought with the army to cook, if it is not enough, go to Wenren's family in Qiancheng County Help, they will definitely not refuse, the sooner the better."

"Yes!"

The personal guard responded and then left along the tomb passage where he had come.

"Wait a minute! Brother Zixiu, it's better to ask the two of them to go together so that we can take care of each other."

Wu Liang stopped the personal guard again and insisted.

According to the routine of horror movies, the people who are alone are usually the first to die, and the death is unclear. Although Wu Liang and others are not in the horror movie at this moment, Wu Liang thinks that this kind of detail should be paid attention to. Avoid accidents as much as possible.

"Okay, you two go together, go and go back quickly."

Although Cao Ang didn't know the routines of horror movies, seeing Wu Liang's insistence, he still chose to respect his opinion.

"Yes."

The two personal guards quickly disappeared into the tomb passage.

And Wu Liang and the others have already taken out the realgar powder they carried with them at this moment, and they worked together to form a circle along the edge of the yellow-brown slime, trapping all the gnats that came out of the corpse in the circle .

Although realgar can't effectively kill these gnats, those gnats don't seem to like realgar.

A few of them crawled to the edge of the realgar powder circle, and then retreated immediately, refusing to take a step too easily.

In this way, it should be possible to restrict their actions to a certain extent for the time being.

but.

In this tomb, there should be more than just the bug crawling out of the corpse. If Bai Jingjing heard correctly before, there is at least another group who don't know where it is now, and who are somewhat similar to that weird childish figure. relation.

That's it.

Wu Liang thought about Yu Ji again, and then asked the previous question: "Old man, you just said that if this sting technique is to harm people, it mainly relies on specially made eggs, but now I am even more curious about how these hatched scorpions What harm do adult worms do?"

"The old man only heard that insect eggs can harm people."

Yu Ji shook his head, and said with some confidence, "As for these gnats... the old man only heard that the more grievances attached to gnats, the greater the toxicity and harm, but how can the adult gnats harm people? , the old man doesn’t know, but according to what the old man sees, it’s better not to get in touch with him as much as possible.”

poison?acid?bite?Drill?Suck?
These are the ways that Wu Liang can think of these gnats harming people now, but other ways of harming people cannot be completely ruled out, after all, these gnats are no longer ordinary bugs.

Thinking of this, Wu Liang slightly nodded and said: "Since this is the case, we will not touch these graves for the time being, so as not to release more gnats and it will be difficult to clean up, but let's not be idle, why not take advantage While the two guards went to find the salt, let’s explore the other two tomb passages, and maybe we can find other things.”

……

Wu Liang randomly selected one of the remaining two tomb passages with no discernible difference.

This time Dian Wei was still in the lead, followed closely by Wu Liang, and Cao Ang, Bai Jingjing and Yu Ji walked side by side at the rear.

After what happened just now, Cao Ang no longer looked down on Yu Ji as before.

Although this old man is a little timid and speaks indiscriminately, Cao Ang has already seen part of his role in this small team. At least he has more miscellaneous knowledge and knowledge, just like " "Shoushu", this thing is not something that everyone can say.

Although Yu Ji still has some details that cannot be explained clearly, at least he can give a general idea, which can at least provide you with some ideas.

And recalling the previous conversations between Wu Liang and the others, the old man seemed to know some tricks of public opinion.

Perhaps this is why Wu Liang also took him with him when he was introduced into the Tuan army and tomb robbers.

Therefore, anyone in the Huren army, especially those who are reused by Wu Liang, should not be underestimated. It is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface.

But soon, Cao Ang didn't have the heart to think about it.

Because the tomb passage Wu Liang chose this time is also not simple.

Not long after entering this tomb passage, they entered a place like purgatory on earth!

I saw two iron chains hanging down at intervals on both sides of the top of the tomb passage, and under each iron chain, there was a corpse hanging upside down.

These corpses are somewhat similar to the corpses hidden in the grave, they have the same black skin, the holes in the body are also sealed, and they are also tightly trapped.

But the difference is that these corpses all have a bulging belly, and all of them are women without exception.

And the corpse in the tomb that Wu Liang opened earlier was male.

"These corpses are all pregnant women. If what the old man said before is correct, they are probably the women who were used to cultivate the eggs of worms, right?"

Seeing this scene, while Cao Ang's pupils constricted, he expressed the guesses in the hearts of everyone present.

At this moment, the corpses of these pregnant women are lined up on both sides of the tomb passage like chandeliers, leaving only a narrow passage in the middle of the tomb passage that can only accommodate one person.

If you want to pass through this tomb passage, you have to pass by almost these corpses.

The most unpleasant thing to face is that the height of the heads of these corpses is just about the same as the average height of everyone.

That is to say, if Wu Liang and the others wanted to continue to explore, they had to face their painfully distorted faces that were even more horrific due to stitching and sealing.

"It seems that there should be nothing wrong."

Wu Liang nodded. In order to prevent accidents while passing, he had no choice but to say to Bai Jingjing, "Jingjing, listen carefully again to see if there are any sounds inside these corpses?"

"Ah."

Bai Jingjing walked forward under Dian Wei's protection as she said, and listened attentively.

Yet at this time.

"Ah... that childish figure appeared again!"

Cao Ang, who was standing at the back, suddenly screamed.

Wu Liang and the others hurriedly turned their heads, only to see another dark standing figure appearing just beside the corner they had just passed by. This time, they didn't hide half of their body behind the corner, but exposed it completely.

"wrong."

Wu Liang noticed something at a glance, frowned and said, "I'm afraid this is not the childish figure we saw before, this figure is at least one head taller, and... the figure is also thicker!"
