The crooked way can also lead to heaven
Chapter 48 Mercenaries
Entering the tomb, a serious smell of decay hits your face, and one breath makes you feel uncomfortable all over.
Fortunately, Ye Ran only went to the grave occasionally. If it were those local masters, all of them would have contracted lung disease.
The wild wolf turned around with a flashlight: "Boss Ye, there is a road over here."
Ye Ran turned around and saw that he was in the center of the tomb passage, and the floor tiles were filled with messy arrows.
"We can just follow along. All the mechanisms in front of us should have been triggered by this group of people, which saves us a lot of trouble."
After saying that, he took out two wraith dolls from his satchel and let them go out to explore.
Ye Ran and Ye Lang continued to move along the tomb passage. They saw the mechanism being triggered at several places along the way. As they walked, they came deeper underground.
After walking through the long corridor, what comes into view is a huge front hall. There is a bronze tripod in the center of the venue, which seems to be used for sacrifices.
When the two went to check, they found that the bronze cauldron was full of bones, which completely confirmed this conjecture.
The door of the palace was wide open, and there were signs of violent destruction on both sides. Two corpses were lying beside the wall. They looked frightened and had dark faces.
The wild wolf squatted down and inspected the body, took out a Nepalese army knife from the body, and pulled off the dog tag from the body's neck.
"These two corpses are well-equipped, and the calluses on the tiger's mouth are thicker than the palms of their hands. They look like people who often play with guns. I suspect they are also mercenaries."
"You're looking at their chests. There are three claw marks that are deep enough to show the bones. They were killed by one hit from someone."
I'm afraid this tomb is not peaceful either. The scariest thing is never the rice dumplings, but those strange creatures.
I remember that once when he went to the tomb, he ran into a giant snake as big as a truck. Now he is still a little scared when he thinks about it.
Ye Ran just glanced briefly and walked into the hall immediately.
If nothing else, the place they entered was most likely in the middle of the ancient tomb. Even if it wasn't, there wouldn't be much difference between the left and right.
The two continued to explore, and the air around them became thinner and thinner, making people feel dizzy and tinnitus from time to time.
As he walked, he unexpectedly caught up with that group of people.
Ye Ran looked up at the corpses hanging above. They were so densely packed that he couldn't count them. There were only about a dozen people in the group, and they all stood here without moving.
As if they sensed the presence of an outsider, a group of people picked up their rifles and turned around.
"Who?!"
Someone roared, and everyone's nerves tensed up and they pulled the bolt.
The wild wolf looked solemn, took a step forward to block Ye Ran, and whispered: "Boss Ye, if the situation goes wrong, you can run away first."
Ye Ran raised his hand and pushed him aside, raising his eyebrows and said: "With so many guns pointed at us, where can we go?"
If you still run away under such circumstances, I will beat you to a pulp in minutes!
Besides, people who go to the grave generally do it for money, as long as there is no conflict of interest with them.
"Calm down, we don't offend the river, so why bother with swords and guns?"
Ye Ran took two steps forward with his hands behind his back. His eyes wandered back and forth on the group of people, and finally locked on an old man, followed by a smartly dressed woman who seemed to be his personal bodyguard.
Both sides were sizing each other up, and the old man finally smiled: "What this kid said is, please do as you please."
A trace of contempt flashed in Ye Ran's eyes. These guys clearly didn't dare to go forward to explore the way, so they showed an easy-going and kind-hearted look, but it didn't matter.
The wild wolf followed him forward, but the vigilance in his eyes did not diminish at all. He thought that if there was any change in this group of people, he would try to delay as much time as possible to create a chance for Ye Ran to escape.
The old man also walked to the side with a smile at this time: "My little friend, do you have any research on this mechanism?"
Ye Ran glanced at him and said calmly: "Research is out of the question, but I know what it is."
"oh?"
"Can you please tell me in detail?"
Hearing this, the old man was also happy and couldn't wait to ask questions.
Ye Ran snorted: "Oh, how can there be a free lunch in this world?"
As soon as these words came out, the female bodyguard immediately frowned: "Please check the situation clearly before speaking."
Before Ye Ran could respond, the wild wolf turned his head with a fierce face: "What does it have to do with you? It's your turn to interrupt the leader!"
The female bodyguard's eyes changed, and the group of people immediately raised their guns again.
Even so, the wild wolf did not flinch and said: "I'm still wondering why the equipment and clothing of the two corpses at the door look so familiar. After a long time, they turned out to be people from the Caesar Group."
"I advise you to think clearly before taking action what the consequences will be if you go against the mafia group!"
Originally, the female bodyguard relied on her large number of people and did not take the two people in front of her seriously, but when she heard the words "Black Hand Group", a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes.
The smell of gunpowder at the scene became stronger and stronger, but Ye Ran did not say anything to stop it.
Because he concluded that the old man in front of him would never order the shooting.
If I had just come in, I wouldn't be sure.
After this conversation, it was confirmed that this group of people had no idea what kind of mechanism was in front of them.
If you want to go through, you must lower your profile and ask for help, otherwise you will have no choice but to go home.
"Enough!"
"A meaningless quarrel will only affect the progress, Wanrong, please apologize to both of you."
The old man scolded.
When Wanrong heard that she was asked to apologize, she felt very unhappy and wanted to argue: "Boss, I..."
Before she finished speaking, the old man went over and slapped her, and said in an angry tone: "I asked you to apologize, do you want to rebel?"
Seeing that her boss slapped her for an outsider, Wanrong became even more angry. However, due to her status, she could only bend down and said, "I'm sorry, you two."
Although she held back, anyone could hear the gritted teeth in her words.
The old man opened his backpack again, took out a few wads of red banknotes, and said with a smile: "It's because I'm not disciplined well. Don't take it to heart, little friend. This money is not much, so I'll just treat you two to a cup of tea."
Seeing the money, Ye Ran immediately put away his stinky face and responded with a smile: "Look what you said, it is fate that we met together. It doesn't matter whether we have money or not. The boss is a little polite. I won't do it next time." Allow this!”
Ye Ran said while counting the money with a smile, not shying away from other people's eyes.
This scene immediately made others feel contemptuous.
The man in front of me focused on two words.
hypocritical!
"Ahem."
Ye Ranqing coughed twice and accepted the money, so he reluctantly answered their curiosity.
"What you see now is called the Thousand Corpse Formation."
"Look up and look carefully. There are countless red ropes tied to these corpses, and there are two bells between every ten corpses."
"The road ahead seems smooth, but as long as someone steps on the mechanism, the red rope will be pulled immediately, and the bell will shake violently."
"This group of corpses will wake up within tens of seconds and fall from the sky."
After hearing this explanation, the old man couldn't help but think about it, and then asked: "Then how can we pass?"
"Simple." Ye Ran raised his head slightly and stared at the densely packed corpses above. "Find the Corpse King and cut off all the red ropes connecting it. This way, even if the mechanism is triggered, the rest of the corpses will not move. "
"Oh, by the way, these corpses are highly poisonous, and there is mercury in their bodies. Don't shoot or use a knife. If you accidentally cut the skin, you will die."
Ye Ran finished speaking with a smile and turned to look at the old man.
In fact, what Ye Ran said was half true and half false.
The Corpse King is real. As long as the red rope on its body is cut off, the formation will naturally fail.
However...as long as one red rope is broken, the Thousand Corpse Array will be triggered immediately.
The real solution should be to wake up all the corpses, and then use people as bait to attract these corpses. After they run out, they can safely pass ahead.
