Chapter 21

The corpse is in ruins

Author: Sharkshou Zhazhao

The corpse is in ruins

Rain and snow.

Winter night.

"May the gods and earth protect my king and win a great victory."

It has a sleeved shirt, a horse-faced skirt, a ferocious beast mask, a bronze mirror and a silver bell hanging on the body, and a bird- and wood-grain hanging floral strip underneath.

The shaman and the goddess drank wine and drank the sacrifices to perform the mountain sacrifice ceremony of sending out troops to swear an oath.

Suddenly, there was a strong wind.

The fire in the sky went out immediately.

The next moment, the sacrifices of white horses, black bulls, and red sheep were also blown to the ground, and the bells jingled.

"How could this happen?"

The goddess looked up at the dark sky, loosened her grip, and the staff rolled to the ground.

"It doesn't matter. I have never believed in ghosts and gods. I, a man from Liao Dan, am brave and good at fighting. How can it be that these dead things have the final say about success or failure?"

Yelu Dejin, the new king of Liao and Dan, was nine feet tall, with the stride of a dragon and a tiger. He stretched out his hand to open the camp tent, and he looked so majestic and majestic.

"Khan, this is really not an auspicious image. I'm afraid it will be a bad start."

"What the goddess said is ridiculous. Now we are stationed at the border of Pingzhou, but the wind is getting stronger. How can we retreat without a fight?"

The goddess still wanted to persuade, but was interrupted by the leader of the guards who rushed in.

"Khan! There is someone outside the camp asking to see you!"

"not see!"

The fire in the sky is extinguished, the emperor dies, and the land is divided.

Not a good sign after all.

Yelu Dejin frowned, obviously unhappy with the intrusion.

"Khan! That man, that man." The leader of the guards knelt on the ground and grabbed the ground with his head. "There was a man in white beside him. The two of them expected that Khan would not see them, so they talked for a long time. Let Wei Chen bring me a paragraph."

"What words?"

"Fire deceives and offends the heart, and the battle cannot be won. Foreign generals will fight to the death. Fire goes retrograde to guard the heart, crying and chanting. If the king orders it badly, the country will be mourned, and the government will be difficult."

Hearing this, Yelu Dejin's eyes flashed with confusion.

"Khan!" The goddess's heart trembled, she hurriedly took two steps back, and her slender body knelt on the ground.

"What he means is - once this battle breaks out, death is certain."

After a long silence, the man's voice was hoarse and he asked quietly:

"Can that person tell me what his name is?"

"That man calls himself - the master of Qianji Pavilion."

The land of Liao and Dan, south of Huangshui and north of Huanglong, is the hometown of Xianbei.

It borders Goryeo in the east, Xi State in the west, Yingzhou in the south, and Shiwei in the north. The victorious army numbered 43,000, divided into eight tribes. When hunting, they will be separated from each other, and when fighting, they will go together.

Li Qianyin rode a fast horse all the way to the northern border through wind and rain.

Before coming, she had arranged everything, but Jiang Tianluo was nowhere to be seen.

However, the situation was urgent and she couldn't care so much. She didn't bring any entourage, so she set off alone with only one person, one sword and one horse.

After leaving Luoyang and seeing people dying of hunger, she realized what the world was in chaos.

"Woo——"

Before entering the forest, there was a howling sound, which sounded like humans and animals.

"Girl, don't go in. Hunters went into the forest to hunt a few days ago. When they saw the corpses nearby, they all ran into the forest. It's really scary."

There was an old man on the roadside, walking unsteadily and calling her.

"Old sir," she took some food from the package and handed it over, "are you saying that this corpse can walk on its own? How could there be such a strange thing?"

"Really! Nowadays, people are starving to death everywhere. There was an epidemic a few days ago. The old people said that it is impossible to attract the dead because of the impermanence of life. The road to the underworld is also crowded and there is no place to stand. The ghost King of Hell is angry. I’m giving up.”

The old man said he had a nose and eyes, and he treasured the white-faced steamed bun into his arms with a mysterious expression.

"Old people say? You said it yourself, right?"

"You girl, I kindly advise you, don't be ignorant of good and evil."

The old man looked at the package on Li Qianyin's horse with some envy, but then caught a glimpse of the sword at her waist. He said nothing and limped away.

This forest is the only way to go north. If it were not so, I would probably have to take a detour and walk for more than half a month.

Li Qianyin squeezed the horse's belly with her legs and entered the forest.

The ancient trees in the woods were towering, blocking out the clouds and the sun. It was clearly daytime, but there was no light at all. Ashes were floating in the air, and the air was filled with mist.

"Click——"

There was a sound of bones breaking behind him.

She suddenly reined in her horse, and when she turned around, she saw a male corpse standing there, his body twisted into a strange shape, walking toward her step by step.

Li Qianyin stretched out her hand to pick up a leaf, and drew it into the distance. A purple light was annihilated on the corpse's chest.

The male corpse was startled, then suddenly rushed towards her and hugged the horse's leg.

The horse was frightened and started running while holding the body.

"Go away."

She was a little angry, so she threw out the scabbard and slapped the dead man on the arm. Unexpectedly, the man grabbed her sword and couldn't shake it off.

After hearing the noise, more and more corpses gathered around, blocking the road.

This technique is useless to these dead people?!

If that's the case, let's try Gu.

Li Qianyin stood on the horse and jumped up. The purple energy condensed in his hands, and then disappeared on the backs of the necks of dozens of dead people around him.

She clenched the five fingers of her right hand, and saw that the body that was making strange noises just now, with its body twisting and crawling or moving towards her suddenly became quiet, and its expression was no longer ferocious.

“It really works.”

She chuckled.

"In that case, all of you, please help me explore the way."

With a wave of her hand, the corpses walked in front of her obediently and obediently, and they really seemed like loyal servants.

Li Qianyin rode a horse and slowly followed behind the corpse team, took a water bag and rested for a while.

After more than ten days of running around and working hard, no matter how good my physical strength is, I am still a little exhausted.

"Huh? Why don't you leave?"

She reached out of the scabbard and poked the shoulder of the nearest dead man - the aftermath of rigor mortis was as hard as stone.

Then, only a short flute sound was heard in the distance.

The corpse paused, then walked uncontrollably towards the direction of the flute.

"Pap, tap—"

Several corpses came out of the mist floating in the woods in eight sedans.

There were several iron chains tied to the sedan, which made a series of collision sounds as it was dragged on the ground.

Li Qianyin got off the horse, hid behind a tree, and watched the changes.

"Naihe Bridge, the road is far away, and you can walk three miles at a time."

"Forget the river, the house has been built for thousands of years, and what can I do if I don't recognize people's faces?"

I could only hear a male voice humming a tune in the sedan chair, but he didn't seem to see her, nor the steed standing alone in the woods.

After the corpses she had just controlled consciously joined the team, the corpses lifted up the sedan again and set off into the fog again.

Fortunately, this person has no harmful intentions.

Li Qianyin breathed a sigh of relief.

But the next moment, I just felt a chill behind me.

She turned around suddenly, but was immediately restrained by iron chains.

The man in black quickly put her down on the ground, playing with a bone flute in his hand, looking like a villain.

Thin lips, sharp eyebrows, painted eyebrows, handsome face, arrogant and cold.

Well, he's quite a good-looking villain.

Seeing the villain holding a poison she had planted in the corpse, he said with a familiar smile:

"Playing with corpses is dangerous, girl, it's better to go back and play with Gu."
