Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 553 Wu Liang's New Baby (4000)

"what!!!"

"Ghost, ghost!"

"Fake corpse, help!"

Several soldiers brought by Guan Yu were so frightened that they couldn't even stand up, so they sat on the ground with their buttocks, and then kicked their legs on the ground and moved backward desperately.

Some people even didn't dare to pick up some shoes after they dropped them, but kept kicking their feet, just wanting to stay away from the female corpse, a little further away.

"Don't panic!"

Guan Yu also trembled in fright, but who is he? Covering the retreat of the soldiers under his command is also protecting Wu Liang and the others.

The soldiers saw how brave Guan Yu was.

And they had already retreated behind Guan Yu, and although the female corpse gave a shock for no reason, it didn't violently hurt anyone, and they finally felt a little bit at ease.

Sitting on the ground like this for a while.

The few soldiers finally stood up reluctantly, and then took out their weapons and stood beside Guan Yu, looking at the female corpse with lingering fear.

"General, this subordinate is..."

A soldier who should be in an official position showed a look of embarrassment and guilt, as if he wanted to explain to Guan Yu his gaffe just now.

After all, not to mention running away, he hid directly behind the general. If he was dealt with according to military regulations, he would have died ten times.

"This time the situation is special, I will write it down for you for now, if there is another time, don't blame Guan for being ruthless!"

Guan Yu said without looking back.

"Thank you general, if there is another time, the general will not need to deal with it, and the subordinates will end it on their own!"

The soldier immediately gave Guan Yu a big gift in gratitude.

The other soldiers also saluted together, and saluted Guan Yu in unison: "Thank you, General!"

Then without Guan Yu saying anything else, they seemed to have finally regained the courage to be scared away by the female corpse. One by one, they took up weapons and came to Guan Yu, keeping a distance and carefully surrounding the female corpse. They were able to control him within the encirclement circle, preventing him from injuring Guan Yu, Wu Liang and others in the first place.

There is no doubt that these people are well-trained and good soldiers.

It's just like many people Wu Liang met, although they can see death as home in the face of thousands of troops, but they don't know how to face things like ghosts and evil spirits. This kind of fear comes from the unknown.

This is true of Cao Ti, and so is Cao Ang.

Even though Ning Yuan died on the battlefield, Cao Zhi did not want to rob the tomb again, and after Cao Ang went to the tomb with Wu Liang in Le Anguo, he also had a new understanding of the ancient tomb, and at the same time he looked at Wu Liang with admiration. After meeting Wu Liang, I gained some respect and admiration, and I completely gave up the idea of ​​following Wu Liang to visit the tomb.

at the same time.

Seeing that the soldiers had already taken the necessary precautions, Guan Yu finally came to his senses. He turned his head and asked Wu Liang for advice: "Fourth brother, look at this..."

"It's not necessarily a corpse fraud or a corpse transformation."

Wu Liang struggled to push away Yu Ji's hands that were tightly hugging his arms, and then said seriously, "I just saw that the corpse shuddered, but his eyes were not opened, and he didn't make any other moves. There is no unusual movement or change, so the change just now may be just a normal change in a certain tendon of the corpse that has been under the influence of an external force."

In fact, he has never really seen the process of fraud or corpse transformation.

However, in his understanding, once a corpse is fraudulent or transformed, the corpse is equivalent to becoming a walking dead or some kind of evil thing, and this kind of thing is like a cat seeing a mouse when it sees a living person, isn't it? What may remain rational and motionless, instinct will make it immediately violent and hurt others.

So Wu Liang speculated that the situation just now was a physical function similar to "conditional emission".

of course.

It is also possible that his speculation was wrong. After all, this is already a mummy, and there is a high possibility that the tendons in the human body have been completely rotted and broken, and such "conditional launch" cannot occur again.

But Wu Liang insisted that this was not a phenomenon of fraud or corpse transformation, because the behavior of this corpse was too gentle.

And now that Liu Bei has been carried out, the factors that caused the escalation of the disaster naturally no longer exist, and things can definitely be thought of in a better direction.

"The fourth brother means..."

After all, Guan Yu was still a little apprehensive, and his brows were slightly frowned.

Wu Liang also did not teach Guan Yu to try again immediately, but moved the mysterious snare drum behind him to the front of his body, then took two steps forward, and beat it rhythmically.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ... Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Several previous experiences are enough to prove that the mysterious snare drum is very effective against the evil things from the corpse.

犼.

Giant worm.

In the face of such evil things, the mysterious snare drum is the key to escape.

It's just that when facing some evil things that are not transformed from human corpses, it seems that they are not so useful, and it can even be said that they have no effect, not as useful as knives and guns.

Therefore, Wu Liang had reason to believe that if this mummy had really undergone a corpse change, the sound of the mysterious snare drum would definitely cause it to have some different reactions, at least it would be impossible to stay motionless in the corner.

"This……"

Seeing Wu Liang's actions, Guan Yu and his soldiers were curious.

They didn't know what the mysterious snare drum was for, and they thought that Wu Liang was casting some powerful spell.

"!"

Only Zhen Mi, who had just joined the Huanren Army, was refreshed at this moment, and looked at the mysterious small drum on Wu Liang's waist in surprise.

Regarding this mysterious small drum, she seemed to know something that Wu Liang and the others did not, and judging by her expression at the moment, it seemed that it should not be a bad thing.

It's a pity that Wu Liang didn't notice Zhen Mi's expression at the moment.

He was still watching the mummy's reaction to the drumbeat.

The result was...no response.

This further confirmed Wu Liang's previous speculation that this mummy probably did not change, and as for the inexplicable shock just now, there was a high probability that it was an accidental phenomenon of the remaining body functions of the corpse.

come to such a preliminary conclusion.

Wu Liang turned his head to look at Zhuge Liang again, beckoned to him and said, "Brother Zhuge, take out the treasure I specially taught you to carry this time."

baby?

Everyone in Lian Renjun was taken aback, but they had never heard that Wu Liang handed over any treasure to Zhuge Liang for safekeeping.

And Guan Yu and the accompanying soldiers also had expressions of curiosity on their faces, what kind of treasure would it be?

"Good."

In front of everyone, Zhuge Liang responded, and then took off a linen package that had been carried behind his back and handed it to Wu Liang.

Wu Liang didn't shy away from it either.

Just like that, he opened the sackcloth package in front of everyone, and then took out a large bundle of things like thin hemp ropes tied together.

"This is……"

Everyone's eyes widened, and their necks stretched unconsciously.

And as Wu Liang's big hemp rope-like thing gradually spread out, they finally understood what the "treasure" Wu Liang was talking about was.

It was nothing more than a fishing net made of fine hemp rope!
This thing is a new net bought by Wu Liang from local fishermen when he passed through Julu County on this expedition.

Originally, he thought that the fishing nets of this era were not very strong due to the limited material, because most of the nets used in this era were made of hemp fiber, which was easy to swell when absorbing water, and easy to mold when exposed to moisture, so every time the fishing net was used, it had to be dried. For a long time, there was a saying that "three days of fishing and two days of drying the net".

But in Julu County, Wu Liang saw local fishermen weave fishing nets made of hemp fiber and a thicker silk that is not suitable for weaving silk.

This kind of fishing net is much stronger and more durable than the fishing net woven only with hemp fiber.

And there are still some people in the local area who specialize in breeding this type of silkworms to draw silk, specifically to provide raw materials for weaving such fishing nets... It is a pity that the news in this era is relatively occluded, otherwise in this era, this kind of fishing net will definitely be popular all over the country, especially when it is popular. It is favored by fishermen who make a living by fishing along the coast, along the lake or along the river.

And the local silkworm farmers also told him one thing.

This kind of silkworm that spits thick silk is actually not a different species. The same silkworm eggs can be bred in other places, and they can spit out thin and light silk. Only when they are bred here can there be such a difference.

Hearing this, Wu Liangcai suddenly remembered a piece of history about silk from the Celestial Dynasty.

During the Tang Dynasty, China’s foreign trade reached an unprecedented peak. There were so many merchants traveling between the East and the West on the Silk Road, and as one of the most in-demand commodities in China, silk was exported to the European continent through the Silk Road. sought after by Western aristocrats.

At that time, many businessmen from the West had their brains twisted, wanting to bring silkworms, an important raw material manufacturer of Chinese silk, back to the West for breeding, so as to obtain greater benefits and get rid of their dependence on China.

The imperial court at that time was also aware of this, strictly guarding the border, checking every merchant entering and exiting the border, and once it was found that someone had secretly brought silkworm eggs, live silkworms and the like, he would impose a felony. In the end, two Byzantine monks hid the silkworms and mulberry leaves in bamboo sticks and took them to the Middle East.

Unfortunately, this move did not immediately help them affect China's monopoly on silk.

Because after the silkworms arrived in the Middle East, the silk produced by breeding was much thicker than the silk of the Celestial Dynasty. Naturally, the woven silk could not be used for wearing, and could only be made into things like carpets...

A conclusion can be drawn from this matter.

This does not seem to be a matter of the species of silkworms, but seems to be related to the local climate, the species of mulberry trees, or the method of breeding.

but.

Wu Liang's "silkworm god treasure silk" should be a matter of species. The silkworm god and ordinary silkworms are obviously not the same thing. Unfortunately, according to the records in historical legends, the silkworm god should have become extinct, otherwise the "silkworm god treasure silk" would be invulnerable The foreign objects can be used as strategic materials.

Pulling away, get back to business.

The reason why Wu Liang bought such a fishing net was to deal with the current situation.

He didn't intend to touch the corpse just now, and he didn't find anything wrong with the corpse, so he didn't sacrifice this "treasure", but in this situation, it is better to use this "treasure" to guard against it it is good.

"Use this fishing net to cover the corpse, even if it really has some mutations, it will be self-defeating when struggling in the fishing net. Not only will it not be able to escape, but it may become more and more entangled. You can sleep peacefully. What does the second brother think?" ?”

Wu Liang shook the fishing net away and said to Guan Yu with a smile.

This is a small net. After all, Wu Liang didn't use this net to catch fish. The larger the net, the more fish he can catch. As long as the net can cover one person, it is enough.

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Really wonderful! The fourth brother is really a wonderful person."

Guan Yu immediately gave a thumbs up, his face full of admiration and admiration for Wu Liang.

Everyone in the Huanren Army also suddenly realized.

However, how did they know that this trick was actually just Wu Liang stealing from some tomb robbery books of later generations, but if he was able to use it in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, then he was the ancestor of this way, no matter who said it in the future, It was also others who stole lessons from his ancestor.

……

After a brief preparation, Guan Yu and his soldiers approached the female corpse again.

This time, with the help of Wu Liang's "baby", even if they were still a little apprehensive, they had a little bit more confidence.

However, just when they were about to touch the female corpse again.

!!!

The female corpse suddenly moved again.

The range of this movement is obviously bigger than before, it is not just a shock, but a sensation.

"oops!"

The soldiers under Guan Yu's command were suddenly shocked again.

This time, although they hurried back again, they didn't piss off like before, because there was still a fishing net between them and the female corpse. If the female corpse exploded, it would be covered by the fishing net block.

And this time.

Wu Liang did not stand by and watch.

Seeing the female corpse move inexplicably again, instead of retreating, Wu Liang rushed up immediately and grabbed the rope attached to the fishing net!
Then he pulled hard, and actually pulled the female corpse out from under the wooden platform.

"?!"

Seeing this situation, everyone was stunned.

Could it be that Wu Liang was possessed by some kind of evil, and he would make such a weird move?
However, in the next second, they couldn't care less about being surprised by Wu Liang's actions.

Because they see more clearly.

At the moment when Wu Liang pulled the female corpse out from under the wooden platform, a strange black thing appeared under the female corpse. It was about a foot long, with a pointed head and a pointed tail...

It is not yet waiting for everyone to see clearly what this is.

With a "hiss", this thing has already got into a small hole with a radius of less than one foot next to it.

And this small hole just happened to be blocked by the female corpse!
