I killed the film and television world

Chapter 431 Pingshan Ancient Tomb
The scene of Song Ren subduing Old Master Ren after he took personal action was truly shocking.

This also made Mr. Ren, who had some ulterior motives, completely calm down.

The purpose of this trip was to find his uncle, Jiu, who was here.

Song Ren simply led more than a hundred warlord troops and stationed them in Renjia Town fully armed.

Take a card to eat.

All the big landlords of the old generation in Renjia Town were skinned.

Even with just this small layer, we have harvested countless rich supplies of all kinds.

More than a hundred people in large and small carts were all taken away and confiscated in one go.

By the way, I also received a more handy compass from Uncle Jiu.

This compass is a kind of comprehensive compass, also called Sanyuan Sanhe compass.

The three combinations here emphasize the combination of heaven, earth and man, which is also divided into the heaven plate, the earth plate and the man plate.

When sewing needles on the Tianpan Plate, it is important to remove the sand.

The site should be oriented correctly and in the right direction.

The needle in the human plate is about collecting water.

The San Yuan includes the innate Bagua and the acquired Bagua, a total of sixty-four hexagrams, and also incorporates Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, and the cosmic cycle.

This compass has been polished by Uncle Jiu over the years, so it is naturally very easy to use.

He took it for himself without hesitation, and as a thank you gift, he gave Uncle Jiu exactly two silver dollars.

Before leaving, Uncle Jiu personally saw them off. He was always polite in his words and actions, and even had a forced smile.

It is said that when Uncle Jiu smiles, life or death is unpredictable.

Song Ren believed that Uncle Jiu must be very happy this time.

……

Take the supplies in large and small trucks, reorganize the troops, and get back on the road.

When they returned to the camp, the more than 500 engineers who had been arranged in advance and were ready to go were already fully armed.

There were even more than a hundred mules prepared. These mules are the offspring of horses and donkeys and have the advantages of both animals.

In particular, its load-bearing capacity is more outstanding, which is a must-have for the military.

By the time everything was ready, the sun was about to set.

But more than 500 engineers had already rested in advance, and followed the order.

The crowd traveled in groups, following the rising moonlight, and began to enter the deep mountains and forests of western Hunan.

the goal--

Mengdong River Basin, Laoxiongling, and Pingshan Ancient Tomb.

……

In ancient times, Pingshan was a treasure land for alchemists specially opened up by the emperor's family in order to pursue the elixir of life.

Throughout the ages, countless alchemists have gathered here.

During this period, extremely magnificent palaces and buildings were built here.

In order to refine the so-called elixir of life, naturally a huge amount of natural treasures were gathered here.

However, during the Yuan Dynasty, this place was occupied by the Yuan army and converted into a general's tomb.

It is said that once you go to the Pingshan Ancient Tomb, you can never return.

The reason why this place is dangerous is that it is rich in lead and mercury.

Also, due to the activities of alchemists throughout the dynasties, too many medicinal stones of various kinds have already been stored in Pingshan.

The medicinal properties cannot evaporate in the mountains, and instead condense into water vapor and seep into the ground.

After thousands of years of accumulation, all kinds of drugs and poisons have seeped in.

This also causes the toxicity of the poisonous insects underground to continue to evolve, and the danger factor naturally increases exponentially.

During the Qing Dynasty, an earthquake caused a huge natural crack in Pingshan Mountain from the shoulder of the bottle.

It also caused a large number of poisonous insects inside Pingshan to exhale poisonous mirages, forming fog and miasma that covered the mountains.

Whenever the earth's air rolls, poisonous mirages will pour out from the cracks in large numbers.

If an ordinary person inhales it, he will die in a moment!

For Song Ren, those horrible poisonous insects in the ancient tomb were no problem at all.

He has a strong physique and is immune to all poisons.

However, if you want to steal the treasures in this ancient tomb.

He was alone, and he didn't know how many times he would have to repeat this.

But when working together, we need to be more cautious.

……

After marching for a day and a night, the troops had entered the Mengdong River Basin.

The two words "Mengdong" in Mengdong River have some meanings.

"Meng" is a nickname for the Miao people in ancient times, while "Dong" is a nickname for the ancient Yi people.

Entering here means you have stepped into the territory of ethnic minorities.

During the Republic of China period, local control was limited.

At the same time, many ethnic minorities have always been extremely xenophobic, and coupled with the differences in folk customs and habits, a fatal fight could easily be triggered here if one is not careful.

The troops continued to move forward until the sky was filled with stars again and the moon rose in the west.

A group of hundreds of people finally caught a glimpse of a densely packed mountain village attic at the foot of the mountain ahead.

As the night deepened, a few faint candlelights began to light up there.

From a distance, they look like fireflies.

After reaching this point, most of the troops were very tired.

The adjutant also has to take into account the emotions of the soldiers under his command.

Realizing that the negative emotions of the crowd were somewhat out of control, he stepped forward and suggested going to the mountain stronghold below to rest for a night.

Song Ren thought about it, but shook his head and said:

"Forget it. Since entering this land, more than one group of people have coveted us."

"Some mountain people have spied on the marching troops. If we rush over now, I'm afraid we will be greeted by swords, guns and traps."

The adjutant was a little embarrassed when he heard this: "But sir, our subordinates have been marching for a day and most of them are exhausted. If we force them to continue marching, I'm afraid they will mutiny."

Song Ren didn't say anything, but just pointed in another direction at the foot of the mountain.

Because of the night, it was completely dark there, without even a candlelight.

Due to the long distance, no one except Song Ren could see anything at all.

Song Renze said, "There is a large mansion there."

"It's unlikely that hundreds of people can squeeze in, but since there's a mansion, it means that the surrounding area should be suitable for camping. Let's set up camp nearby."

The adjutant could not see any traces in that direction at all, it was completely pitch black.

However, now that Song Ren had spoken, it was difficult for him to refute.

After a short rest, the troops set out again.

The mules and horses continued to work busily.

We walked along the remote mountain path and when we passed the settlement at the foot of the mountain, a long row of sharp barricades suddenly rose up on the mountain path ahead with a rustling sound.

Immediately afterwards, countless torches lit up all around.

From the wilderness with tall grass and low forests, more and more mountain people in strange clothes appeared, holding axes, bows and arrows, and occasionally one or two long spears among them.

This group of people must have been lying in ambush all around, and they must have been waiting for a long time. On the mountain road, the soldiers who formed a long line were more or less panicked after noticing the unexpected situation.

When marching at night, the vision is limited.

After a day and a night, everyone was already exhausted.

At this moment, illuminated by countless flickering flames all around, it was impossible to tell what was going on.

The soldiers could only raise their spears one by one and point them in all directions in panic.

Song Ren signaled to his adjutant to let these soldiers quiet down.

The adjutant immediately turned around and issued serious orders to each major detachment.

Soon, the originally noisy atmosphere eased a little.

Song Ren took the initiative to step forward and spoke to the mountain people who were hiding in the bushes in front of him:
"We are just passing through here. We are not bandits or thieves. We have no intention of disturbing the village here. There is nothing else to do. Everyone can go home."

The mountain people looked at each other in the darkness.

Then, a middle-aged man who looked like a leader of the stronghold and who was fluent in Chinese took the initiative to step forward.

He walked around some bushes, stepped out of the line, and replied in Chinese:
"This mountain stronghold is where our lives and property depend on."

"How can we let you go just because of your light explanation?"

"According to the rules, you only have two choices now. Either go back the same way you came, or take a detour!"

Song Ren laughed when he heard this: "Take a detour?"

"Brother, are you kidding? This mountain road is surrounded by mountains and peaks, and your Miao village is almost in the middle. If we want to go around it, I'm afraid we will have to walk all night."

"We are just passing by and not entering the village. If this is not acceptable, you are being too overbearing."

The middle-aged man still insisted and shook his head: "I don't care. You are numerous and heavily armed. If I let you all pass through, God knows what you will do next."

Song Ren: "Is there nothing to discuss?"

The middle-aged man shook his head with a firm expression.

Seeing this, Song Ren said no more.

Since it doesn't make sense, then don't talk about it.

Then fight——

Just as Song Ren was about to teach these stubborn mountain people a lesson, a very fast black shadow in the distance suddenly attracted his attention.

that is……

Roar! ! !
Suddenly, a majestic roar of the king of beasts shocked everyone in the mountains.

The mountain people who were hiding under the surrounding grass and treetops, when they heard the sound, immediately prostrated themselves on the ground in fear, dropped their knives and bows, and knelt down one by one.

Seeing this, Song Ren's eyes twitched slightly:
This sound, if I guessed correctly...

Soon, a huge shadow emerged from the crowd, as if falling from the sky, and suddenly hit Song Ren right in front of him.

Shadows gradually began to appear in the moonlight.

He was wearing the same simple clothes as the mountain people, but he was tall and mighty, with two striped tiger ears. He was a tiger-headed man who was half-kneeling on one knee in front of Song Ren.

really……

It’s Wangcai!
When they first arrived in this world, Song Ren and Wangcai chose to act separately.

The task that Wangcai was instructed to do at that time was to let it find its own way and explore the Pingshan area first.

But he really didn't expect that this tiger-headed man could live so comfortably in just over two days.

At this moment, Wangcai raised his head cautiously. Seeing that Song Ren looked normal, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked tentatively, "Sir?"

Song Ren raised his chin slightly towards the direction of the mountain people who were bowing in the mountains and asked, "What's going on?"

Wangcai saw that he was not angry, so he stood up and said with a little pride: "Sir, these people are all my servants, or you can say my followers."

It turned out that after Wangcai left Song Ren and acted alone, he began to let himself go.

This guy is a monster in human form after all. Although some parts of his body have not been completely removed, this makes it convenient for him to play tricks.

Especially those mountain people hiding deep in the mountains, although their customs are a bit tough, their personalities are also very simple.

After he showed some favors to some people and demonstrated some of his skills, he was immediately worshipped as the totem god of the village by the mountain people.

Because he was walking around in person, he rescued mountain people in distress several times.

This allowed him to gain extremely high admiration in a very short period of time.

The mountain people have great faith in him.

They regarded Wangcai's every word and action as the will of heaven and blindly believed in him.

Song Renzhi's forehead was filled with black lines as he listened.

It's too outrageous that such a person could easily gain the support of the entire village in just over two days!

However, with the relationship with Wangcai, and after a little deception.

The original tension between the two sides was completely resolved.

However, the mountain people still felt a little embarrassed about allowing a large group of people to stay overnight in the village.

Although the conflict has been temporarily resolved, their place is not very big, and it is somewhat unreasonable to hastily accommodate nearly 500 people in a way that is not too simple.

Fortunately, Song Ren didn't want to spend the night here.

Although Wangcai was there to ease the situation, he had only been there for a little over two days.

In addition, if all the soldiers were settled down, there would be many people with different voices, customs, and language barriers, which would inevitably lead to some conflicts.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Song Ren arranged the entire army to bypass the mountain stronghold and set up camp inside and outside a dark house not far away.

According to the mountain residents, it was a charity cemetery built by the people in the village together.

It is also called the abode of the dead.

In the current context, many Han people have fled to these poor and remote places to avoid war, military service, or taxes.

If they died in a foreign land, they would naturally hope to be buried in their hometown.

However, the mountain road is rugged and the journey is long, and the corpse drivers only come here once in a long time.

Therefore, the local mountain people built this charity cemetery together.

It is used to temporarily store corpses and use special medicinal herbs to prevent the corpse from rotting.

Moreover, there are special people to look after the charity cemetery.

On the one hand, it is to prevent corpse transformation, and on the other hand, it is to prevent being eaten by wild beasts.

It is said that the person who takes care of this charity cemetery is named Haozi Ergu.

She is a woman with an ugly appearance but a pitiful fate.

When Song Ren led his large army to the charity cemetery, there was still lingering mountain fog, the air was very humid, and there was an evil aura lingering around.

Wangcai accompanied Song Ren and introduced the situation of Pingshan Mountain that he had explored, as well as what he had seen and heard in the past two days.

When talking about Pingshan, he also had a headache:
"Sir, I have already gone down to Pingshan Mountain and conducted a brief investigation. Everything else about that place is fine, but there are really a lot of poisonous insects."

"And they are all extremely poisonous. A bite from them can melt a large piece of my flesh. It hurts terribly."

Song Ren: "Have you been in there?"

Wangcai: "Well, there was a huge crack on Pingshan Mountain. I went down and took a look, but it was just a preliminary look."

"There are too many poisonous insects in there. Facing those little creatures, I have no place to display my abilities."

Song Ren asked curiously, "Have you seen the six-winged centipede?"

Wangcai shook his head: "I haven't seen it."

"I only went down to the surface hall. There were densely packed poisonous centipedes in there. Although they were not very powerful, their venom was extremely strong. I estimate that if an ordinary person was bitten, he would really turn into a pool of pus."

Song Ren nodded.

It seems that I still have to borrow the Angry Chicken from the mountain people.
