The Secret Art of Refining the Dead: The Walking Corpse File

Chapter 396 Xianhou Tomb

The most awesome hot weapon I have ever touched is a gun. I have only seen explosives on TV. This thing is still far away from the lives of ordinary people, except of course, such things as firecrackers and fireworks.

Tan Ren said: "It should be done by tomb robbers." There is a folk saying that says 36 lines, tomb robbers are king, and the style of tomb robbery has existed since ancient times.Of course, the current tomb robbery business, just like Zhou Xuanye's corpse refining technique, was also interrupted in the war years and ten years of catastrophe. Few people really understand those magical techniques and exquisiteness.Today's tomb robbers, in the words of ancient times, are not popular, have no skills, and rely entirely on brute force.

Ever since Sun Dianying blew up Cixi Mausoleum, he created such a method of blowing up tombs. Now many tomb robbers have started to blow up tombs in the mountains, completely destroying the structure of ancient tombs, which is really hateful.

Of course, I don't know about tomb robbery. Tan Ren told me these things, and he also made a very precise guess based on the situation in front of him.First of all, the green hair didn't come here for no reason, it must have been hit, or there was a problem with the tomb, which would cause the corpse to change.

He guessed that there should be a tomb robber. After entering the tomb, he ran into the hairy corpse and was hunted down by the green hair. He used explosives in a hurry.The tomb robber was probably very smart, seeing that the green hair could not be killed by blowing up, he led it into the mud pit.

Zhou Xuanye and Ke Xiangu came in to search for corpses and wandered around the mountain, but for some reason, they ran to Wanling Pit.Those who engage in tomb robbery are inherently shady, and they are all vicious and vicious people who are not afraid of ghosts and gods, and will not spare the dead. If they find Zhou Xuanye and the two of them, it is hard to guarantee that they will not have evil intentions, kill people and silence them. Isn't this just a man-made disaster?

No matter how powerful Zhou Xuanye is, he is not a diamond body like Zimao. Under explosives, he is no different from us ordinary people.

Tan Ren was talking to me and Tianran about these tomb robbers, while looking at the watch on his wrist, he originally planned to set up camp, but he probably got anxious when he saw the green hair, so he said tonight Hurry up and find Zhou Xuanye and the others as soon as possible.

we
The three hurriedly tidied up their dirty bodies and ate something, so they didn't dare to delay any longer. As usual, Tan Ren led the way, and we followed behind him.According to the location calculated by Tan Renchou, if there is no accident, he should be able to arrive at the destination at around two o'clock in the morning tonight.

Next to the puddle is soft mud covered with mosses. Walking a short distance from the shore, there is wormwood as tall as a person. Mosquitoes and flies are flying around, and the surrounding area is pitch black. The only light source is us. Flashlight in hand.

I don't know how deep this good grass is, but I feel that the further we go, the more mosquitoes and flies are flying and buzzing all over the sky, which makes people very disturbed.

In this humming sound, I vaguely seemed to hear a slight moan.

I am a person with good hearing, so although the sound was subtle, it did not escape my ears.I couldn't help but stop, put my ears up, and carefully distinguish the buzzing mosquitoes and flies.

"Hmm...um." The voice sounded like someone had their mouth covered.

Seeing that I didn't go, the natural stupefied in front of me stopped and looked at me sideways.

I pointed to my ear to signal him to listen.

The voice was intermittent, groaning twice, paused for a while, and then, as if to attract our attention, it suddenly became hurried and slightly louder. Now, Tianrandai and I were sure immediately. Where that person was, Tan Ren walked towards that location without saying a word.

The wormwood is very deep in this place, and we were using the flashlight, and the visible range was very limited. We walked thirty steps forward following the sound, and Tan Ren's footsteps suddenly paused, and then he said: "In the Here." While speaking, he used a dagger to chop the surrounding wormwood.

Following his movements, the surrounding wormwood fell down one after another. At the same time, a fallen person was faintly revealed on the ground, and he kept making murmuring sounds.

At this moment, we are still very close to this person, the light is on at a close distance, and the moment I see his situation clearly, I just feel numb all over and goosebumps.

I saw that this man was wrapped around his mouth with figurine tape, and his coat seemed to be ripped off. He only wore a pair of underwear, a tattered coat that could hardly cover his body, and a pair of shoes on his feet. Other than that, he All kinds of bugs are left on the body.

The soil in this place is already wet and soft, and it is summer again, so there are countless kinds of insects.On his bare legs, I don't know how many leeches, snails, ants, and a fat caterpillar crawled, not to mention the rest of the mosquitoes, flies and the like.

The man was tied with his hands cut backwards, and his feet were tied with ropes. He fell to the ground and could only roll around, unable to move.He had obviously rolled before, so there was wormwood crushed by him next to him, and the bare skin was either mud or scratches. This appearance was simply too disgusting.

Tan Ren frowned, stretched out his hand and tore off the sealant on the man's mouth, and in an instant, the man shouted: "Help me, I'll tell you where the underground palace is."

underground palace?I subconsciously said: "What underground palace?"

The man was panting heavily, with panic in his eyes, his expression changed when he heard the words, and he said, "Aren't you here to fight?" It is the most basic slang in the tomb robbery circle, which means tomb robbery, and it is also called digging mushrooms or fishing for salted fish.

I immediately understood that this man was a tomb robber, and he thought we were also tomb robbers, and wanted us to save him with the information about the underground palace he said.

When I saw his situation just now, I was quite sympathetic. Now that I know what he does, I immediately feel that this is really retribution. I came to dig someone else’s grave, but now I’m tied up here, covered in bugs. It deserves it.But soon I realized, if this person is a tomb robber, then who tied him up?

Seeing that we didn't answer, this man struggled on the ground for a while, and hurriedly said: "The three big brothers are helping me out, and I, Li Quanshan, will never forget the kindness and virtue of the three of you. In the future, if there is anything for the three of you, I will definitely take the lead... ..." Before he could finish speaking, Tan Ren said in a very annoying way: "It's long-winded."

Immediately afterwards, Tan Ren raised his leg, ignored the insects and ants on this man, stepped on his chest, half-bent, and said casually: "Saving you, it's easy, but first you have to answer me a few times." I have a question, if there is any concealment, I will send you to be reincarnated as soon as possible." With his posture, people who don't know him will definitely be fooled, and he looks cold and cruel, and those who don't know it think it is Which underworld boss.

This person is about thirty years old, and he is also a smart person. He knows that if he is still traveling in the mountains in the middle of the night, even if he is not in the same company, he is definitely not an ordinary person. Therefore, when he was frightened by Tan Ren, he nodded immediately: " I said, I said, as long as I know, I will say everything. Can you untie me first."

Tan Renpi glanced at him with a non-smiling smile: "What do you think?"

The man swallowed, and settled for the next best thing: "Then can you clean up these things on me, it's too fucking uncomfortable."

Hearing this, Tan Ren gave me a wink, I understood, and immediately went to clean up the bugs on this person, while cleaning, Tan Ren asked unhurriedly: "Who tied you here."

Li Quanshan said: "Four men and one woman, they were in the same company who were fighting against each other. They didn't know each other. They just happened to bump into each other, and they tied them up. I snatched all the equipment and so on."

Four men and one woman?
I immediately thought of the five people from last night. It seems that our guess was correct. Those people were also tomb robbers, but judging by their equipment and momentum, I'm afraid they weren't those low-level casual robbers digging holes with shovels.However, these five people are too cruel and merciless. In a place like this, they strip off people's clothes, tie them up, and throw them in the wormwood. Being sucked by the locusts and grass ticks in this place did not kill people directly, but it was not much different from killing people by hand.

I remember that the leader was a woman, and this woman's methods were too vicious.

Tan Ren said again: "Why did they treat you like this?"

Li Quanshan groaned, and said: "My colleagues are enemies. They asked me about the situation in the underground palace. I knew a little bit. I told them that they didn't believe me, so they just punished me like this."

Hearing this, Tan Ren was thoughtful: "You all came here for the underground palace? What treasures are there in the underground palace? Are you the only one here to rob the tomb?"

Li Quanshan sighed when he heard the words, and said of course not, at least two people are needed to rob a tomb, only those who are really desperate and desperate, dare to go to the tomb alone, no one will let the wind go, no one will respond to reinforcements, as long as there is a little accident , people have to be buried alive.

Li Quanshan came from a total of three people. There are many ancient tombs in Wanling Pit, but in fact most of them have been dug up by tomb robbers throughout the ages.But there is only one tomb, which has never been touched. That tomb is called Xianhou Palace. It is said that it is a Han tomb, and a Hou Ye with a foreign surname is buried in front of it.

This Lord Hou liked to cultivate immortals and practice Taoism during his lifetime, and the underground palace where he was buried was arranged by many powerful people at that time. Although the size is not large, the inside is very strange. The idea of ​​the underground palace failed in the end.

But recently, there was a small geological event in this area, and other places are fine, but the structure of the Xianhou tomb was damaged, which greatly reduced the protection inside, and this is why there are many tomb robbers who have heard the name of the Xianhou tomb Thieves come here to try their luck.

But although the underground palace was destroyed, the things inside were really weird. The three of them had no chance to go deep, and the other two companions died tragically. , was tied up here waiting to die.
