Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 63 Young Woman
Early the next morning.

Yang Wanli and Dian Wei brought back news again.

After Haishi last night, the weird woman in the valley cried loudly, and Hao Meng's team was frightened, so they did not continue to search for the tomb at night, but all returned to the camp to rest.

Unexpectedly, when I got up to check the number in the morning, just like Yang Wanli's previous experience, two people were missing for no reason.

Hao Meng immediately ordered people to search around, but found nothing.

In the end, the matter had to be left alone. Hao Meng declared the two disappeared soldiers as deserters in public. After appeasing the soldiers' emotions in this way, he ordered the troops to continue digging in various places in the valley.

"Why are there two people missing every time?"

"Could it be that the tomb guards have limited manpower, and they only have the ability to kill two people silently at one time?"

"Or maybe the tomb guards don't want to start a big killing, so they give a small warning as a warning, only for the purpose of scaring off the invading enemies?"

Some things just can't be understood by thinking about them.

But Wu Liang did not easily shake the inference that "there is a tomb guard here", but arranged for Yang Wanli and Dian Wei to eat and rest first, and then go to the valley to continue monitoring at night.

As for the daytime when the line of sight is better, just go to a distant place with two people so that you can monitor the movements of Hao Meng's troops.

Just let Yang Wanli and Dianwei take turns.

……

The evening of the second day.

Hao Meng's troops did not find the mausoleum, but they had all returned to the camp ahead of time for repairs as soon as the genius had darkened.

It can be seen that the weird woman crying at night and the disappearance of the two soldiers had a certain negative impact on their morale, making them feel a little bit trembling.

……

Early on the third day.

Another two people from Hao Meng's department went missing, but they still found nothing.

Yang Wanli and Dian Wei still haven't seen how those two people disappeared, and Yang Wanli once again published his inference of the tomb owner's revenge.

……

The evening of the third day.

Nothing happened.

……

Morning of the fourth day.

Two more people from Hao Meng's unit disappeared, and some people in the army have already started spreading ghost stories.

Hao Meng ordered his subordinates to arrest the two leaders, and whipped ten lashes each in public as a warning to others, temporarily suppressing the ghost talk.

……

On the evening of the fourth day.

Hao Meng ordered people to tie many intricate ropes around the camp, and some light iron objects were tied to the ropes. If someone touched the ropes at night, they would jingle.

……

Early on the fifth day.

The ironware didn't ring all night, Hao Meng's troops finally didn't add any missing persons, and the army's morale was at peace.

……

……

……

the seventh day.

At noon, people were carried back to the camp one after another. Some of these people kept vomiting, some had pulled up their pants, and some even fainted.

There was chaos in the camp, and there were weak and painful soldiers everywhere.

……

eighth day.

The situation became more and more serious. According to visual inspection, at least half of the soldiers had similar symptoms.

After a small number of soldiers died, Hao Meng ordered people to dig a big pit near the camp, wrapped the dead in straw mats, threw them into the pit, and set them on fire.

The soldiers were terrified and knelt in front of Hao Meng, begging for an order to withdraw the troops.

Hao Meng was caught in a dilemma, but still refused to withdraw the army lightly, and personally led people out of the camp to investigate, and soon found six severely decomposed corpses in the upper stream.

These six corpses are exactly the soldiers who disappeared consecutively in the past few days.

The carrion was soaked in the stream, and was tied to the trees by the stream by ropes to prevent the water from rushing downstream. It turned out that the stream that Hao Meng drank recently was exactly this kind of stream that had soaked the carrion!
Hao Meng was furious and ordered people to pull out the six rotting corpses and burn them into ashes. He returned to the camp and explained the reason to the soldiers.

Then they sent people to search the mountain again, but still found nothing.

……

tenth day.

Symptoms of the disease are still cross-spread among soldiers, and the death toll has exceeded half.

Hao Meng was forced to move out of the camp with soldiers who had not yet developed symptoms. Contact with soldiers in the camp was forbidden. Once someone died, they were immediately burned to avoid future troubles.

So far, less than a hundred of Hao Meng's troops can still stand, and all of them are panic-stricken and morale is low.

However, that night, Yang Wanli and Dian Wei finally saw a mysterious person who was not under Hao Meng's command. In the night, the light iron tools that Hao Meng ordered to arrange around the camp suddenly made noise.

Hao Meng's troops were already like frightened birds at this time, and immediately rushed out when they heard the sound.

As a result, a mysterious man who was twitching non-stop beside the rope was captured near the rope as if he had suffered from epilepsy.

But after Hao Meng and the others saw the appearance of the mysterious man clearly, their faces showed obvious fright, but they tied him back to the camp with all their might.

With the help of the camp fire, Yang Wanli and Dian Wei finally saw the appearance of the mysterious man.

According to the two, it is better to call it a "monster" than a human being.

The "monster" had a much larger forehead than normal people, with few hairs on his head, one big and one small eyes, and only half of his lips, half of his gums and teeth were exposed, drooling all the time.

In addition, the "monster"'s arms were also one long and one short, and when he walked, he bent over and swayed, shaking and shaking very uncoordinated.

What is this if it's not a "monster"?
Relieved, Hao Meng wanted to ask some information from the "monster", but the "monster" could only babble and howl, Hao Meng ordered someone to pry open the "monster"'s mouth, only to find out That "monster" had its tongue cut out long ago.

Hao Meng believed that the "monster" still had accomplices, so he tied the "monster" on the river beach and tortured him continuously, cutting the "monster" one by one, making it scream continuously.

Not long after, the scream of the "monster" really led to seven or eight of the same "monster".

Those "monsters" were also in different shapes, they looked like old and young, men and women, holding a fork and a machete in their hands, they rushed towards Hao Meng and the others recklessly.

It's a pity that there was a disparity in the number of people between the two. After just a few breaths, the "monsters" all fell to the ground.

Dead dead, wounded.

After the battle, Hao Meng ordered people to check and found that these "monsters" had their tongues cut out. Not only could they not speak, but even if they were asked, they seemed to be unable to understand.

……

At the same time, these days, in the eyes of Cao Tian, ​​Dian Wei, Yang Wanli, and the soldiers of the Huren Army, Wu Liang has become a magician who can pinch and count!

Because except for the "monsters" that suddenly appeared at the end, almost all other things were predicted by Wu Liang in advance.

Even the corpses of the six missing soldiers, Wu Liang had sent people to the upper reaches of the stream to investigate two days earlier, and they had already discovered them at that time. It should be known that the large-scale illness had not yet begun in Hao Meng's army. !
But at the moment Wu Liang's attention.

But it was on a young woman who didn't look very bright and was just captured from the mountains by Yang Wanli and Dian Wei early in the morning.

　Thanks to the boss of [Favorite Little Money] for the reward.
