On the day the empress ascended the throne, my body was hung at the city gate

Chapter 62 Who is playing with the spirits of the dead?
After several days of journey, non-stop Wu Mingyue and others finally arrived at the former northwest border.

Since the unification of the world, this place has been completely deserted.

The sky is full of yellow sand everywhere, desolate and full of deathly silence.

However, although Wu Mingyue cannot practice, she still has martial arts skills. The difficult environment in front of her is nothing to her.

In spring, summer, autumn and winter, the four commanders of the Shadow Guards were also masters of martial arts, so naturally they were not affected in any way.

Only Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were disgraced.

The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is huge, but they only have the thinnest layer of clothing on their bodies. They are soaked in sweat during the day and shivering from the cold at night.

And except for the two eldest men, both Wu Mingyue and Chun Xia Qiu Dong were women.

Therefore, even if you are facing extreme weather, you must wrap yourself up tightly.

Avoid losing your manners.

"Is this the place where Gu Changsheng once fought?"

Looking at the desert in front of him, some memories in Wu Mingyue's heart were aroused.

The time when she and Gu Changsheng traveled around the world away from the court were perhaps the happiest time in Wu Mingyue's life.

During this period, the two traveled all over the world and saw all the rivers and lakes.

That was the first time Wu Mingyue left the palace.

During this process, she saw many animals that usually existed only in books, and also smelled the fragrance of flowers.

It's a pity...the mountains and rivers are still there, but that person is nowhere to be seen.

Wu Mingyue felt sad.

"According to the tip, this is where the Yin soldiers last appeared."

Xia Zhu glanced at the map and responded seriously.

The group set up camp here.

Wait for several days.

On the seventh day, a fierce and cold wind suddenly blew in the desert at night.

coming.

Wu Mingyue immediately picked up the Xuanyuan Sword beside him and jumped out of the camp.

The next moment, a dense marching team was seen carrying a general flag that was so worn that it was almost impossible to see the font above.

After being baptized by the wind and sand, the armor and stomach of each person were in tatters, revealing the stark white bones inside.

"It's the border army back then!!!"

"In the battle of Tumubao, our great Zhou Dynasty suffered an unprecedented defeat, and hundreds of thousands of border troops were wiped out."

"Who is toying with the ghosts of the dead?"

The expressions of the commanders of the four shadow guards changed greatly.

"The soul is back! The soul is back! There is no distance, no east and no west~"

"The soul is coming back! The soul is coming back!"

"The soul is back~"

As the shabby general's flag fluttered, the long marching army stood still, their eyes turned red, and their mouths squirmed, as if thousands of troops and horses were roaring at the same time.

Then he heard a call that was extremely tragic and full of resentment.

"Come back...!"

The shrill shouts pierced the sky.

There was deep resentment and unwillingness in his voice.

It seems to be telling all the injustices.

"Oh my God, there is a ghost."

Hearing the noise, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, who also came over, were frightened when they saw the scene in front of them.

Even the four girls of Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter were so frightened that their pretty faces turned pale.

You must know that this is no ordinary undead.

It was the most courageous northwest border army in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The border guards were shocked, and the Jin people who were beaten countless times were frightened by the news and suffered only one defeat in their lives.

Each one is the best of the best.

Before being crushed by the momentum of such a warrior who has fought a hundred battles, everyone just felt like a small boat in a fast river, and would be overturned to the ground at any time.

"What should we do? Let's run away."

Koo Zhong was panicked, couldn't help swallowing, and stammered.

"Escape? Where are we going to escape? Can these cavalry be faster? I'm afraid we will become one of them after tonight."

Xu Ziling smiled bitterly.At this moment they had no retreat.

"No one is allowed to escape. They all stay where I am and cover Her Majesty the Empress' departure."

Spring, summer, autumn and winter shouted in unison, fully prepared for battle.

However, Wu Mingyue waved her hand to stop everyone.

She could tell that the undead army in front of her had no malicious intent.

If he really wanted their lives, he would have started taking action long ago.

"What are you officers doing today? I am Wu Mingyue, the new empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty. You are all my heroes of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If you have any grievances, if I can, I will do my best to help you fulfill your long-cherished wish!"

Wu Mingyue spoke and gently comforted the group of undead.

However, these undead did not give any response and completely ignored Wu Mingyue's existence.

"The soul is back! The soul is back! There is no distance, no east and no west~"

"The soul is coming back! The soul is coming back!"

"The soul is back~"

The undead still repeated the same words, but they were much smaller and more intermittent than before, as if they would dissipate at any time.

Is this... a spiritual call?

Only then did Wu Mingyue finally hear the content clearly.

These undead souls are using their own power to bring someone's soul back to this world.

Wu Mingyue's eyes were inexplicably shocked.

"This is spiritualism. On the condition that one's own body disappears into ashes and cannot enter the reincarnation, it is exchanged for a soul that has disappeared in this world."

Chun Yan explained in a deep voice that the four of them had special physiques that allowed them to walk in the dark. Naturally, they also knew some magic techniques and anecdotes that ordinary people didn't know.

But it is unimaginable that hundreds of thousands of undead appear together and call for one person.

Such a scene is simply unbelievable.

Therefore, they were calling Gu Changsheng.

Wu Mingyue quickly realized that Gu Changsheng was in a situation where he was gradually disappearing into the world before his eyes.
They cannot be allowed to continue.

Seeing the spirit bodies of the border troops gradually becoming illusory.

Wu Mingyue gritted her teeth and made a decision.

Gu Changsheng's disappearance is not that simple, and doing so will never achieve any results.

And if Gu Changsheng were here, he wouldn't allow them to do this.

"I am Wu Mingyue, the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty. I hereby swear to all the soldiers that I will...bring that person back."

Wu Mingyue speaks loudly, every word is firm and powerful.

He raised his sword high and said firmly.

"General."

It wasn't until Wu Mingyue raised the Xuanyuan Sword high above his head that hundreds of thousands of dead soldiers at the border gate reacted.

One of the undead men, who looked like a general, raised his hand to stop the remaining soldiers from speaking again.

Immediately he walked slowly to Wu Mingyue.

"The general has never failed the Great Zhou Dynasty, and our northwest defenders have never failed the Great Zhou Dynasty. We have never embarrassed the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"In that battle, we defeated the Kingdom of Jin!!!"

"We've never lost."

"We are undefeated!!!"

"Undefeated in the Great Week!!"

"Undefeated!"

A series of passionate shouts resounded through the sky, shaking the entire space, as if they were shouting for victory, and they were also like venting the unwillingness and unwillingness in their hearts.

In the end, the entire army let out a deafening shout that resounded throughout the sky and echoed for a long time.

"I will bring him back and give him back to you."

Wu Mingyue looked solemn and promised word by word.

"Please, Your Majesty."

The general bowed deeply and cupped his fists towards Wu Mingyue.

With this bow, they seemed to have no regrets anymore, and their bodies gradually disappeared.

At the last moment, everyone raised their hands and pointed out the direction of Wu Mingyue's next stop.
