Tang Feng was dizzy, couldn't stand upright, and fell straight to the mummy pile under his feet. Fortunately, Han Jiang reacted quickly and supported Tang Feng who was about to fall to the ground.

Tang Feng shook his head vigorously, and then looked at the mummy around him. The mummy did not return to life, and it was still lying here quietly like it has been for thousands of years. "I also looked here, let's go back!" Han Jiang suggested.

However, Tang Feng broke free from Han Jiang, waved his hand, and said, "I think we should find something else on these mummies."

"What did you find? Aren't they all mummies with hideous faces!" Han Jiang was puzzled.

Tang Feng went straight to the gate of Wengcheng in the southeast direction alone, and Han Jiang had to follow. Tang Feng picked up a mummy. The mummy had a hole in its chest with a sharp object, and a big and deep hole. hole! "Judging from the wound, it was pierced from the front by a long weapon." Han Jiang judged calmly.

"Long weapon? What could it be?"

Han Jiang pursed his lips, "It's right under your feet."

Tang Feng hurriedly took a step back, only to find that in the loess, a section of thick, cracked and shriveled wooden pole was vaguely exposed. This wooden pole was as thick as the mouth of a bowl. But he tried his best, tried several times but couldn't pull out the wooden pole!

Han Jiang said with a smile: "I think your strength is obviously not as good as before!"

"Then you come!" Tang Feng waved his hands and quit.

"I'll come, I'll come!" Han Jiang took the wooden pole and exerted [-]% of his strength. The wooden pole was buried in the soil and remained motionless. The wooden pole in the soil was pulled out.

Both of them were stunned. Tang Feng stared blankly at the thick wooden pole in Han Jiang's hand for a long time before muttering, "I...it's the first time I've seen such a thick and long spear!"

Yes, in Han Jiang's hand is a spear that is as thick as a bowl and is three or four meters long. Can you handle it? I only saw it in books before..." Han Jiang spoke incoherently.

Tang Feng looked at the spear, and then looked up at the surrounding city walls, "It seems that this spear belongs to Xixia's weapon. It is not used to fight the enemy alone, but to throw it. This Mongolian soldier was thrown from the city wall. Killed by a spear thrown from above!"

"The warrior who threw the spear must have been mighty."

"Yes, I'd love to see what a strongman throws such a long and heavy spear."

"Stop talking nonsense, these mummies will really come back to life soon, and you will stop eating!" Han Jiang lowered his voice and warned Tang Feng, as if he was afraid of waking up the mummies around him who had been sleeping for hundreds of years.

The two walked a few steps forward, and Tang Feng found arrowheads on several mummy corpses. After only one glance, Tang Feng concluded, "These are arrowheads from Xixia. It seems that these Mongolian mummy corpses were indeed killed by In the hands of party members."

"I still can't believe that after the fall of Xixia, the party members can still have such a strong fighting power!" Han Jiang shook his head, unable to believe Tang Feng's inference.

The two of them walked to the gate of the Wengcheng without knowing it. At this time, dawn had already dawned in the east. Here, Tang Feng saw an even more unbelievable sight. The gate of the Wengcheng was sealed by a wall of earth and stone made of stones and rammed earth. .

Han Jiang pulled out his dagger and stabbed hard at the sealed earth-stone wall in the city gate. Han Jiang couldn't help but marvel at the solid earth-rock wall that even Han Jiang's sharp dagger couldn't penetrate.

Tang Feng took Han Jiang's dagger, stabbed it a few times at the lower part of the earth-stone wall, fiddled with it a few more times, and said slowly: "The whole earth-stone wall was poured with molten iron, and the hot molten iron instantly condensed the stones and soil together. , became a solid iron wall, so after hundreds of years, it is still extremely strong."

"No wonder! It turns out that this is an iron wall." Han Jiang looked up at the earth and stone wall in front of him again, "But who did this? Why did they block the city gates? Those who defend the city or those who attack the city? It doesn't seem to make any sense!"

"Yeah! I'm thinking about this too. If the defenders of the city blocked the city gates to strengthen their defenses, that would be an explanation, but in this way, the defenders would not be able to communicate with the outside world, nor would they be able to deliver supplies. Come in, unless..."

"Unless the people in the city know that there will be no more reinforcements and supplies outside, so they vowed to die and blocked the city gate." Han Jiang speculated.

"I can't rule out this possibility, but it's too tragic. Besides, if the Mongolian army is defending the city, they can't be isolated and helpless. There is absolutely no need to take this method."

"That's the side that attacked the city, but why did the side that attacked the city block the city gate?" Han Jiang was puzzled.

Tang Feng couldn't figure it out for a moment. He squatted down and carefully checked around the earth-stone wall. He found a lot of iron dross on the ground in front of the earth-stone wall and on the armor of some mummies. Especially dense, densely packed, stacked in front of the city gate, and all the mummies are facing the gate of the urn city. Suddenly, Tang Feng found that a mummified corpse was still in good condition at his feet, but the hands and arms of the mummified corpse were still in good condition. There are only a lot of white bones left, which are presented in front of their eyes.

Tang Feng trembled all over, staring at the strange mummy in front of him, he found iron dregs around the white hands and arms of the mummy, at this moment, a terrifying and bloody picture appeared in front of Tang Feng... The Dangxiang soldiers who attacked the city trapped hundreds of Mongolian soldiers in the Wengcheng. The Mongolian soldiers first retreated to the south gate, and the Dangxiang people lowered the heavy gate on the south gate. The door rushed towards him, trying to open the gate of the Wengcheng City, to open a bloody road, and to break out of the encirclement.But at this moment, the party members who had just captured the gate of the Wengcheng threw a large number of stones and loess over the gate, blocking the gate of the Wengcheng. The Mongolian soldiers desperately moved the stones and loess away. At the same time, molten iron poured down from the city gate, and the sergeant rushing forward who was scraping earth and stones was instantly deprived of his hands by the hot molten iron, and the heart-piercing wailing spread throughout the entire urn city. Swords and spears of revenge rained down on these Mongolian soldiers, and a bloody massacre began.

Han Jiang patted Tang Feng who was in deep thought, "We should go back, is Liang Yuan still in the car?"

Only then did Tang Feng recover from his thoughts. Yes, Liang Yuan was still in the car. Although they walked not far away, they were wasted a lot of time by these mummies. Liang Yuan must be anxious. Thinking of this, Tang Feng picked up a Xixia arrowhead, took two quick steps, and retreated towards the south gate. When the two of them stood under the south gate again, Tang Feng instinctively looked up at the Qianjin gate on the gate, the gate of the Qianjin gate After hundreds of years, it is still sharp, and under the rising sun, there is a slight cold light, Tang Feng can't help but secretly surprised.

When the two of them walked out of the south gate, there were two roads in front of them, one was the side street they used when they came, and the other was a side street that was wider than the side street. Han Jiang just wanted to go back along the side street when he came along, but Tang Feng grabbed him, "Why don't we go?" Take this side street, according to my speculation, this side street should also lead to South Street."

Han Jiang hesitated for a moment, but without any objection, he followed Tang Feng into the Xiejie Street. The two of them walked more than sixty steps, and a wall appeared in front of them. After more than thirty steps, there was another bend, and it was still a narrow alleyway. Tang Feng couldn't help regretting that he shouldn't hastily entered this complicated alleyway. He secretly quickened his pace. After more than forty steps, another wall appeared in front of him. , When the two walked to the wall, Tang Feng was completely dumbfounded, this is a dead end.

"It's all your good idea. It's a good idea. It's a dead end." Han Jiang complained to Tang Feng.

"Back back." Tang Feng said firmly.

Han Jiang shook his head helplessly, and had no choice but to follow Tang Feng back the way he came, but something happened that broke them down. They walked more than a hundred steps in the alley, but they didn't see the side street when they came in.

It was another dead end. At the end of the dead end, Han Jiang leaned on the wall and began to scold Tang Feng out of breath, "You really fell into a trap. You forgot what you said in front of the south gate."

"I haven't forgotten. I said that this place was probably built like this to confuse the enemy troops who invaded the city."

"Just remember, now we are trapped inside." Han Jiang shouted.

"I didn't expect it to be so complicated..." Tang Feng said, leaning weakly against the wall behind him. Unexpectedly, when his body leaned against the wall, the wall behind him changed, creaking. Yah—thick dust rose at any time, and a dark room appeared behind the wall.

Tang Feng was so startled that he hurriedly took two steps back. After the wall stopped turning, he realized that there was a secret door here. Tang Feng bravely walked into this dark room with Han Jiang, "It seems that the whole thousand Before the construction of Huzhen, it has been carefully planned and designed, and the layout inside is reasonable and there are many organs." Han Jiang sighed.

"Yes! I don't know who designed this ancient town."

"Didn't you infer that there was no Qianhu Town in the Western Xia Dynasty, and the Qianhu Town was established by the Mongols?" Han Jiang asked Tang Feng.

"Yes, I thought so at first, but now I am a little confused."

The two were talking, when suddenly, Tang Feng felt something tripped him. In the dark room, Tang Feng couldn't see his feet clearly, so he had to push away the flashlight and shine it on his feet. It was another mummy, this mummy Also wearing the armor of a Mongolian sergeant, his face was extremely distorted due to the pain. The difference is that this Mongolian sergeant was not shot to death by an arrow or stabbed to death by a spear, but died under the knife, all over his body, It was full of knife marks!
Tang Feng bypassed the mummy and groped to the door of the house. He pushed open the door, a ray of hot sunlight pierced in, and shone into the black room that had been closed for hundreds of years. Tang Feng and Han Jiang walked out of the door , Came to a courtyard, the courtyard is not big, but there are three mummified corpses of Mongolian soldiers lying in it, all of them were killed by the knife without exception.

Han Jiang stared at the mummy in the courtyard, and couldn't help muttering, "You said that the intricate alleys are to confuse the enemies who invaded the city, but all we saw were the corpses of Mongolian soldiers defending the city, a corpse of a party member. I haven't seen it either, do you think this is normal?"

"The party members bloodbathed Qianhu Town where the Mongols were stationed. Is this explanation enough?" Tang Feng looked at Han Jiang helplessly.

"Of course it's not enough. Could it be that such a complicated alleyway can't stop those party members in Hanhai Micheng?" Han Jiang asked Tang Feng.

"Maybe they are already familiar with this place."

"What's the meaning?……"

Before Han Jiang finished speaking, a scream came from outside the courtyard. Tang Feng immediately realized that it was Liang Yuan's voice, and his heart was suddenly pulled. Then, there was another dull gunshot from a distance.

Tang Feng and Han Jiang slammed open a door on the other side of the courtyard. In a room that was exactly the same as before, there were still two mummified corpses lying in it. Tang Feng rushed to the door on the other side of the room recklessly. Jiang grabbed Tang Feng and signaled him to be careful. Tang Feng tried his best to keep calm and tiptoed to the door. Tang Feng could already hear his heartbeat clearly. The sound of footsteps, Tang Feng wondered if he heard it wrong, wiped the tiny beads of sweat from his forehead, and listened attentively, yes, the slight sound of footsteps behind the door came from far to near, approaching here...

Tang Feng's eyes widened, and he still couldn't believe that in this deserted Qianhu Town... He looked back at Han Jiang, and Han Jiang obviously heard the footsteps, Tang Feng saw the dagger in Han Jiang's hand With a cold light, he knew that Han Jiang was ready to fight.

Tang Feng suddenly pushed open the door in front of him, and the most terrifying face in his life appeared in front of him. Tang Feng couldn't stand that ferocious face any longer. He yelled loudly, and almost at the same time, a stern The female voice also called out. Half a minute later, Tang Feng felt that his brain was a little lack of oxygen. After he stopped, he realized that the female voice was Liang Yuan's voice!

The mummy standing between Tang Feng and Liang Yuan fell down, and when the dust dispersed, a beautiful face appeared in front of Tang Feng, and the two hugged each other tightly.

"Why did you run around here?" Tang Feng asked Liang Yuan.

"You still say me, you left me alone in the car, and I won't come for such a long time!" Liang Yuan blamed Tang Feng.

"It's my fault, we got lost here, so..." Tang Feng turned to look at Han Jiang, who had already put away the dagger.

"You were the one who screamed just now?" Han Jiang asked Liang Yuan.

Liang Yuan nodded with aggrieved face, "This place is really scary, there are not a single living person, but there are so many mummified corpses!"

"Did you see the mummy too?" Tang Feng asked.

"This is not one!"

Only now did Tang Feng carefully observe the room in front of him. No, this is not a room, but an aisle. There is another room connected to the other end of the aisle. The horrible mummy just now was hung on the beam of the aisle. .

"This mummy doesn't look like a soldier, but a small businessman. He didn't die in battle, but hanged himself." Han Jiang quickly judged.

"And... there are women, children... children..." Liang Yuan said tremblingly.

"Woman? Child?" Tang Feng was a little surprised.

"Yes, just now... just now I ran into a woman's corpse, and that's why I screamed!" Liang Yuan was still in shock. "He...they are in that room..."

Liang Yuan pointed to the room at the other end of the aisle, and buried her head deeply in Tang Feng's arms. Han Jiang followed Liang Yuan's finger and took two quick steps towards that room.

The three of them came to the room at the other end of the aisle, and in front of them was a terrifying scene that they would never forget. A woman was hanging high on the beam, and five children were lying side by side on the kang under the inner wall. —To be precise, it should be five twisted little mummy.

Han Jiang took a rough look, "There are boys and girls, aged between three and seven, all of them should have died of suffocation."

"Suffocation?" Liang Yuan whispered in surprise.

"It was suffocated!"

"Who smothered them to death?" Liang Yuan stared at Han Jiang with frightened eyes.

Han Jiang glanced at the woman hanging from the beam, and said, "This is the woman, their mother."

"Ah—mother killed her child?" Liang Yuan couldn't believe it.

"It could also be their father, the man in the aisle!" Han Jiang deduced again.

"How...how is this possible?" Liang Yuan shook her head, still in disbelief.

"Yes, I think it's the same." Tang Feng patted Liang Yuan on the shoulder, "When the city was broken, the father and mother first smothered their children to death, and then hanged themselves."

"Too...too cruel!" Liang Yuan didn't dare to take another look.

Han Jiang pushed open the door of this room, strong sunlight came in, and shone into the dusty room for hundreds of years. Han Jiang sucked in the fresh air outside the room, and scanned the outside of the room with his eyes. This is a The yard, in front of it, seems to be a main house.Han Jiang was not in a hurry to go to the main room in front. He turned around and went back inside, and suddenly asked Liang Yuan, "Did you hear the gunshot just now?"

"Gunshots?" Liang Yuan shook her head.

"Just after you screamed!" Han Jiang stared at Liang Yuan.

"I was too...too scared, too nervous, and I didn't hear any gunshots at all..." Liang Yuan tried her best to recall.

"This is strange? Where did the gunshot come from?" Han Jiang was still staring at Liang Yuan.

Liang Yuan was stared at by Han Jiang, "Captain Han, why are you looking at me like this? Do you suspect that I fired the gun? Where did I get the gun?"
