Original War

Chapter 673: Mummy?

The young man basically did not speak. Zheng Luo and the others thought that the young man was seldom spoken and was just a stupefied slave. Yi Si also said that the racial IQ of this slave was not high, but the reason why the young man was seldom spoken. In fact, he is not familiar with the language here.

When Yi Si talked to Shao Xuan and the others, they used the tribal language here, which he learned after he came over. It’s hard to imagine that within twenty or thirty days, he will learn the language here.

“Last year, the heavens and the earth changed, so it shouldn’t be okay over there?” Shao Xuan asked.

“It’s not only bad, it’s terrible.” Yi Si was bleeding at the thought of his farm’s harvest.

“Actually, in the year when there was a big disturbance in Yanjiao, there was a blizzard in winter, which was even colder than the previous year. Winter in the city came early and it often snowed. The harvest at my small farm was not good. Pianguzi is harvested before the winter, and I am afraid that the cold coming early will make it impossible to even eat. The Jingu Country Estate is not very good. Even if the winter snow disaster has already been foreseen, it is still unavoidable to lose when facing it.”

Speaking of this, Yi Si sneered, “But now although the weather has returned to normal, I don’t have to count on the farm. In fact, the atmosphere in Wangcheng has been very irritable, especially the people of Yi’s family, all night. There are a lot of people who can’t sleep. After the cataclysm of the world last year, there were more restless people. I think you should know why.”

“Desert rock tombs?” Zheng Luo asked.

“You can say so, but to be more precise, the Yi family did not have much interest in Mu Han’s descendants. Oh, it should be said that it is Yanling Shi’s family. Mu Han has already given up his tribal surname. Yanling Shi’s family How, Wangcheng Yijia doesn’t care, what they care about is the’ominous’ of the year!”

“Ominous?” Zheng Luo didn’t quite understand what Bai Yi Si meant.

Shao Xuan remembered what he had heard before, “Yi Jia Yi Xiang? The Yi family who came with Mu Jia Mu Han back then?”

“Yes.” Speaking of this Yi Si, he was intrigued. “Mu Han and Yi Xiang were extremely talented. The results obtained by the ancestors of the Yi family, Bu Yan, have actually begun to be fulfilled.”

“Looking at you, it seems that I am looking forward to their fight.” Shao Xuandao.

Yi Si did not deny, “I was also driven away by the Yi family, but it was not as miserable as Yi Xiang back then, nor did he have his talent. Now the six nobles in the royal city have begun to recruit tribal people, just like Lin back then. The same is true for the deer tribe, and most of the finances in the hands of those of us who have no talent and money have been taken back to win hearts and minds.”

Shao Xuan had seen Yi Si’s situation at the first time. What Yi Si said sounded reasonable, but he didn’t believe it all, “Let’s talk about it, what is your purpose?”

Yi Si smiled slightly, “I want to see what was’ominous’ back then, what has been done in the past thousand years. I am afraid that you don’t know, not long after the Cataclysm of Heaven and Earth, the people sent by Wangcheng who were stationed on the border of the mainland After crossing the sea to see, afterwards, except for the two who were deliberately put back, all the others died.”

After Yanjiao crossed the sea, Wangcheng specially sent a group of people to stay there, so that some small tribes living there were forced to relocate. Because the people of the Yi family predicted the possible danger, most of the stationed people avoided it. After the natural disaster, unfortunately, after crossing the sea, almost the entire army was wiped out.

Shao Xuan only heard that there was an abnormal movement in the desert at that time, and perhaps there were these things mentioned by Yi Si among them.

“The two people who were put back said that there were monsters that appeared, and they were huge in number. I was very curious that those should be the fruits of Yi Xiang. It’s a pity that I don’t have a high status in the Yi family and I can’t get in touch with them any closer. Those, coupled with Life’s pressure, so I came over. But you know, our Yi family were never combat-type people, so I took my own slave.”

Yi Si glanced at the reactions of Shao Xuan and continued, “After I came here, I am not familiar with the place and my personal strength is limited. I heard about the Yanjiao Yanhe trading area, so I came here to join you.”

“How did you come here?” Zheng Luo looked over with sharp eyes, crossing the sea and crossing the desert, it was not easy. It’s not so easy to fool them!

Yi Si didn’t panic, and explained: “It’s a long-winged bird.”

The long-winged bird has long and well-developed wings and can fly long distances. It is considered to be the bird with the highest flying ability among the birds. Not only can they fly in the sky, they can also hunt in the water.”I know a man whose slave is a longwing bird. I just borrowed his longwing bird for a period of time. That cost all my savings.” Yi Si asked Shao Xuan, “Have you ever seen it before? Those human-like and inhuman monsters in the desert?”

“Never.” Zheng Luo didn’t have a good face.

“Why don’t you take me in. If you can catch those monsters, let me have a look. After all, I can give you more answers to the things made by the Yi family. How about?” Zhengluo Zhengyu said. What, Yi Si added, “Of course, I am not here to eat white pigs for nothing. I can help you with accounting. At this point, your Elder Shao Xuan knows my ability. But there is still confidence in this aspect. Moreover, my slave cricket can also do some physical work, and his strength is not inferior to you.”

Zheng Luo said nothing, he looked at Shao Xuan, and when he saw Shao Xuan nodding, he took out a roll of animal skins, looked at the distribution of houses on it, and finally chose a house close to Yanhe Castle. Of course, now Yi Si He doesn’t have a dime in hand, and he won’t give him food, clothing, and housing in vain. Therefore, Yi Si is considered to be on credit first.

They were asked to bring Yi Si and the full-fledged Qing Xuan over to the arranged house. After they left, Zheng Luo asked Shao Xuan, “Do you think his words are more credible?”

“Fifty-five points, first stay under your nose and observe.” Shao Xuandao.

“Yeah.” Zheng Luo thought so too. Although he didn’t like the people of the six tribes in the royal city, he still had to admit that the people of the Yi family were very capable. It is good to stay under your eyelids for observation. It is helpful for the horns of inflammation, but if you find something that is not good for the tribe, then just kill it.

At this moment, an eagle crowed in the sky.

Shao Xuan and Zhengluo’s complexion changed at the same time, and they stopped thinking about Yi Si.

The eagles were chatting just now. In the first two days, Shao Xuan received a roll of animal skins sent by the mountain giant eagle back to the tribe. It said that they would send the “monster” they caught. , But the specific time is uncertain.

Shao Xuan asked Chacha to pay attention to the movement in the sky in the past two days. The perception between the giant eagles on the mountain is relatively strong. If there is an eagle coming back to the tribe, it will definitely find it. The chirping call just now tells Shao Xuan that the “goods” have arrived.

The two rushed to the top of the Yanhe Building, and a mountain eagle landed, holding a long wooden box in its claws and landed. This is a mountain eagle from the tribe, and there are people on the eagle’s back.

Just now Yi Si asked them if they had seen those “monsters” in the desert. Zhengluo said he hadn’t seen them. That’s the truth. In Yanjiao, only Shao Xuan had seen him. Shao Xuan went to the grassland to send invitations. When I went back to the tribe, I saw that humanoid monster.

“That’s it?” Zheng Luo walked over curiously.

“That’s it. However, it’s best to move to the house and open it again without seeing the sun. We seal it with medicine. If we see the sun, the medicine will have no effect.” The Hui tribe man who came over said.

Without saying anything, Zheng Luo picked up the long wooden box like a coffin and carefully moved it to a secret room in Yanhe Castle.

Without the other people, the person who only returned to the tribe, Shao Xuan and Zhengluo, had no light after drawing Shimen.

Shao Xuan took out the water moon stone for lighting.

The boxy wooden box is like a coffin, lying quietly in the dark secret room, before opening it, it gives people a strange feeling of coldness.

Zheng Luo shivered inexplicably.

“Open it.” Shao Xuan motioned to the returning tribe man who had brought the goods.

The other party nodded, took the dagger that Shao Xuan handed over, and paused for a few seconds on the cyan metal dagger, and then cut the rope tied to the wooden box.

The wooden box is tied tightly by the rope, but the dagger is very sharp, and with a stroke upward, the rope will be cut completely without any effort.

When the dagger was handed back to Shao Xuan, the eyes of the Hui tribe man flashed, and he was very envious of the weapon material of Yan Horn.

Untie the rope and lift the lid on it.

The sound of the wooden board was very clear in the secret room. After opening the lid, Shao Xuan’s first thought was: Mummy?

In the wooden box, the Hui tribe people wrapped the “goods” well with animal skins. The thick fur can play a certain buffering effect, and the “goods” wrapped in it are wrapped in green cloth strips. Now, I can barely see the shape of a person.

A weird smell came out, and there was still a hint of decay in it.

Zhengluo swallowed, “That’s it?” Is this the monster that is so jealous that even the nobles in the royal city over the sea worry about it?

“The cloth strip has been soaked with medicine, so that wrapping it will make it rot more slowly. If you want to see Elder Shao Xuan, you can remove the cloth strip, but then you can no longer prevent it from decay quickly.” The tribe man said, “We Wu said, it’s better to put it here, don’t bring it into your headquarters.”

Shao Xuan nodded, saying that he already knew that the reason why he shipped the stuff to the Yanhe trading area instead of the Yanjiao headquarters was mentioned in the previous animal skin roll. Back to the tribe, the witch said that this monster is too weird. It’s better to place it farther away from the tribe. Moreover, he also found that the closer the place is to the fire, the faster the monster rots. Even though the fire horn no longer has the original fire. , But at the Yanjiao headquarters, due to the large number of people in Yanjiao and the concentration of fire, the aura of fire is still very strong. Based on various reasons, in the end, Shao Xuan decided to let the people who returned to the tribe transport things to the Yanhe trading area.

Then he took out a prepared animal skin roll and handed it to the other party, “This is what your leader and witch want.”

The other party took the animal skin scroll and placed it next to him cautiously. After getting the things, he didn’t have the intention to stay here anymore. After leaving, he left. Not far from the Yanhe trading area, there were other people. Waiting for him, of course he will not be the only one to transport important things, just to avoid attracting more attention, so after getting close here, he came alone.

What Shao Xuan gave to the tribesmen was a synthesis of their tribes and the various points of experience in the fusion of the two tribes of the Yu tribe and the Yu tribe. Although since the Yan River feast, more people have learned about Yan Jiao. Shao Xuan also told the people of the tribe about the change of the fire, and even the original fire in the body of the tribe. It’s just that those people have been hesitant. Decided to merge.

And as a thank you, the people of the Hui tribe transported the “monster” that Shao Xuan asked for. Anyway, they can’t draw any conclusions if they stay in the Hui tribe. Besides, this monster has become more decayed now, and the leader of the Hui tribe feels to continue. It was useless to keep it. When Shao Xuan proposed it, he agreed without much thought.

When the people returning to the tribe left, Zhengluo looked at Shao Xuan for advice, “Open it now? Or wait for others to come over?”

“Let me consider.”

Shao Xuan put on a pair of fish skin gloves, and the cloth wrapped around the “monster” was covered with antiseptic drugs, and he would not pull it with bare hands.

The cloth strip is wrapped from the “monster”‘s feet to the head, and the steps to untie are naturally reversed, starting from the head.

Zheng Luo stood by, watching Shao Xuan use those blue-gray fish skin gloves to untie the cloth strips wrapped around the head of the humanoid monster.

As the cloth strips were untied, the monster’s head was exposed.

Zheng Luo looked at the face that was so rotten that he couldn’t see his appearance, and the muscles on his face twitched again and again.

“This…this…this is a human?” Zhengluo only learned from the animal skin scrolls returned to the tribe that the level of decay of the “goods” was relatively high, but he thought he had seen a lot of humans or beasts. Have seen. But now seeing such a strange face, I only feel that there is a chill surging behind him.

That is different from ordinary decay. This “monster” is more inclined to weathered rot. When Shao Xuan unwrapped the cloth strips, he still made a creaking sound. There were even pieces of dry flesh stuck to the cloth strips, black. Yes, it seems to have been dyed with some general dry and hard meat. And as the piece of flesh was peeled off, the bones below were also exposed.

The Hui tribe people said that only the bones were left rotten, which was probably what they meant, and the bones would be seen as soon as the skin was exposed.

“It’s such a’person’, walking in the desert? How come there are such people? Which tribe are they from?” Zheng Luo was still wondering, is there a tribe whose bones are strange and the sky looks like this, such as Yi Si’s. Like that slave, there is no pure human blood in the body.Shao Xuan shook his head, “The last time I went back to the tribe, it wasn’t like that. Now it’s hardened.”

Zheng Luoshu breathed a sigh of relief, and he said, how could there be such a peculiar tribe? It turned out that it was not like this at the beginning.

However, Zheng Luo’s breath was too early.

As Shao Xuan untied the cloth strips on the “goods” more, the legendary “monster” finally revealed his true colors.

Just looking at the head may just feel a little strange, but if you look at his torso, you will discover even greater secrets.

This monster has no organs. The torso and the abdomen are deeply sunken. Even if it is air-dried, this is not the case. Zheng Luo is convinced that there is no dirt on the abdomen of this monster, under the dry flesh. Device!

Zhengluo’s first reaction was: “The people who returned to the tribe cut him off?”

“No, I didn’t go back to the tribe. They don’t have that hobby.” The people who return to the tribe will not use knives on people or beasts at will, unless it is the prey that is about to be eaten.

“Then… Then how…” Zheng Luo stammered not knowing how to express his thoughts. He had a guess in his heart, but he didn’t want to believe it. How could it be possible?

“The monsters in the desert they talk about are actually these’people’ who have no organs, no blood flow, and no pulse.” Shao Xuan said.

Zheng Luo was shocked, “Cocoa has no organs, no blood flow, can he still live?”

“Who said they are alive?”

“But since it’s not alive, why make everyone so jealous?” Zheng Luo wondered.

“This has to ask the people in Yanling. I haven’t seen these’people’ actions with my own eyes.” Shao Xuan couldn’t answer.

“Could this be what Yi Si said were made by the ancestors of the Yi tribe?!”

Zheng Luo only felt that the cold behind him was even worse, the cold sweat soaked his clothes and his scalp was tingling. To them, these are dead people, but to a certain extent, they are still “alive” because they can move and can cut people.

“I really don’t know how the people in Yanling made’people’ like this. Could it be that they made the dead slaves like this?” Zheng Luo muttered.

Shao Xuan’s eyelids twitched.

There are a lot of people in the desert, but the monsters mentioned are huge, and just those slaves who are alive may not be able to reach the “huge” level, especially after the melee in the desert, the number has dropped sharply. But if the people who died were counted, it would be an unpredictable number, not to mention that the people in Yanling had been planning for it some time ago.

Made by the dead…

Shao Xuan suddenly remembered that when he was in the desert, he had snatched nuclear seeds from the underground palace. At that time, he had a battle with Dao Fu in the underground palace, but after killing Dao Fu, he met the people in Yanling and could not bring Dao Fu’s body back to the tribe.

If the people of Yanling can really make the dead into such monsters, then the swordsman who has already died has also been taken back to reform?

Seeing Shao Xuan frowning and staring at the monster inside, Zheng Luo grabbed the bulging goose bumps on his arm, “The people in Yanling are really scary. Fortunately, their main target is the people on the other side of the sea.” .”

Shao Xuan covered the wooden box and carried it to another secret room built underground in Yanhe Castle. He had to study this carefully, and at least he had to know how to better deal with such a monster.
