Chapter seven hundred and ninety-ninth prison mysterious corpse (twenty-two)

According to the written records on the stone slab, after the descendants of the royal family of Luo State were destroyed by Chu State, they hated those in power in Chu State very much. What was ironic was that the two were actually blood relatives. Later generations Cao Zijian said: They were born with the same roots, so why not fight each other? It is probably to describe them. For the sake of power and status, they can fight each other and fight each other without hesitation. Such things are not uncommon in history. It can be seen that human beings have lost their rationality and family affection in the face of interests. Not only have they appeared frequently in history, but they have become more and more intense. It is ironic that kings of all dynasties have to advocate the Confucian ethics of "benevolence and righteousness". When the people are fooled, they shout filial to their parents and love their families humbly, but they turn their faces and pick up swords to kill their relatives without caring. How regretful, laugh, sigh.

Back to the point, the information revealed on the stone slab to the middle section can show that these "Mi" clans hated the Chu royal family very much, and then defected to Zhuang Zhuang and brought some strange witchcraft. Among them, they repeatedly mentioned that they found a corpse that met the requirements in the exile of Guizhou, and transported it here. They conducted several years of research, but the results were not ideal. Among them, these masters studied what they naturally could not understand the records of Miao. However, the second half of the text was a turnaround and things changed again.

According to records, these slaughter masters were digging on the abdomen of the mountain and settling inside. They studied day and night, and a large number of living people were needed. So after Zhuang Zhuang established the Dian Kingdom, he transported those who had opposed him or prisoners who committed crimes to this place. This can explain why there were so many cells and souls here. However, in the fifth year, the excavation here suddenly changed. It turned out that the coolies had penetrated a stone chamber underground, including an ancient "Shi Chun". The slaughter masters were ecstatic and believed that the years of excavation had finally made progress. It should be the Panhu corpse they were looking for, so they opened it. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a "plague beast". Mi Qi led the slaughter masters to fight, and finally defeated it, knocked it back to Shi Chun, and sealed it here with strict seal.

"Wait." Mu Yuan interrupted, "Come one by one, come one by one, there are too many questions. What is this 'plague beast'... How to solve it? Another new name has appeared. There has never been such a monster in the Central Plains."

"This is a general term." Chu Xunyu explained again that the Miao people believed in witchcraft, and the names of ghosts and gods were very different from those of the Han people in the Central Plains. Among them, some monsters that can cause large-scale deaths of the people became "plague beasts". This title can describe many things. For example, Chu Xunyu knew about the drought of the Central Plains, and the southern border was also collectively called "plague beasts".

"Oh." Mu Yuan nodded in a clear way, "It's just that they have tried their best to dig out a monster, right?"

"almost."

"Ph—" Mu Yuan spat, "I deserve these grandchildren."

The text continued, and the commander Mi Qi, who wrote it, felt very frustrated. He had a heavy trust from the unrestrained tribe, and did not know how to explain to Zhuang Zhu. He seemed to be worried about delaying the final major event plan. At a loss, there was no way out. The corpse transported from Luo Kingdom had a new appearance. Although the corpse was seriously rotten and only bones were left, after repair by the masters, it was found that it could devour the soul. So Mi Qi and the others changed their direction and wanted to open a way out from the corpse and complete the tasks assigned by Zhuang Zhu.

“What is the task?”

"I'm not sure, so there is no clear statement here." Chu Xunyu shook his head, "But judging from the information revealed in the text, I guess they probably want to stuff different souls into different bodies and not be rejected by the body, similar to this."

"Why do you want to do this?" Wangchen frowned and asked, "Isn't a person and a soul good? Why do you have to try every means to put your soul into your body that does not belong to you?"

"I'm not saying this." Chu Xunyu shook his head, "But it's certain that Zhuang Zhuo has a big plan. The research on souls conducted in this dungeon is just part of this big plan, and these 'Mi' clan members also participated."

At the end of the text, it mentioned that after the next few years of research and combined with the strange witchcraft in southern Xinjiang, the Masters had already gained something, but it was not perfect and it took time. However, at this time, news came from the royal city that it was necessary to urgently summon the Masters to go back. Zhuang Zhu seemed to have something urgent to do, so Masters gradually evacuated and planned to return to study in the future. I don’t know how long it will take to go, so he sealed the place and set up many mechanisms to protect the place with the plague beast I found before, and sealed the coolies he had recruited in the mountains to feed it. When they finished their work in the royal city, they came back and opened the place again, but they didn’t want to go there, until Chu Xunyu and the other two broke into the place.

"It's OK." Mu Yuan was amused, "Look quickly, where is their royal city? After struggling for so long, I finally found the whereabouts of the ancient Dian Kingdom ruins. See if there is any hint, and give us a clear guide to the lost golden city, so that we can follow the map and rush to their nests."

"No!" Chu Xunyu almost leaned his face up with the fire note, but he couldn't find a word about how to get to the King of Ancient Dian Kingdom.

"This is not unlucky." Mu Yuan was furious. "These grandsons wrote a lot of nonsense, but they just didn't write what we needed most. They were wasting our time."

"How could they record this in words?" Wangchen shrugged helplessly, "For those masters, going to the royal city like this should be familiar with it. The contents recorded in words are the most important purpose for this dungeon, so they will not write other useless things."

The three of them were at a loss. What they got from the dungeon was eventually a historical story of the past. After talking for a long time, Mu Yuan slammed the small stone slab in anger, and the stone slab landed on the ground, revealing a dark pavilion behind it.

"This..." the three of them were stunned.

Mu Yuan said angrily: "Why does every bad guy have a dark pavilion in his home?"

There was a stone box in the dark pavilion, which was quite small. Chu Xunyu brutally clamped his waist and put it on the ground. It was found that the stone box was rammed with a hook and falcon, so he signaled the two of them to stand farther away, stepped on it with his feet, and pried the sword along the crack of the stone. With a "click", he opened the lid, and everyone stretched out their heads to look at it, but it was some... "paper".

"Paper?" Mu Yuan picked it up and asked curiously, "There shouldn't be rice paper or anything else in that era. This thing is cool and soft."

Chu Xunyu also touched it and said angrily: "Remind you, this thing is not paper."

"What is that?"

"Human skin." Chu Xunyu raised his eyebrows, "We often contact us at home."

"You..." Mu Yuan threw it into Chu Xunyu's arms disgustedly, stretched out his hand and wiped it repeatedly, "These grandchildren are disgusting people again."

"Strange." Chu Xunyu naturally didn't feel disgusted. Wangchen helped Chu Xunyu illuminate it. After Chu Xunyu expanded, he found words on it and started talking strangely, "Is there any secret here? Why did you have to make a record of human skin and hide it?"
