Chapter four hundred and seventeen nine orifices jade (4200)(1/2)

Hearing Bai Jingjing's warning, Wu Liang and others felt nervous and quickly looked at the camel.

"..."

Everyone held their breath and listened quietly to what Bai Jingjing said.

It's a pity that they don't have Bai Jingjing's hearing, so they couldn't figure out the reason after listening for a long time.

However, Wu Liang noticed one detail.

I saw that with the four legs of the camel as the center, the lake water was spreading out in circles of extremely fine ripples.

It's just that the nearby lake is only about a foot deep and looks equally clear and translucent, so if you don't calm down and take a closer look, it's easy to overlook this detail.

And this detail can prove one thing - this camel is moving!

It's just that the movement is extremely small, not even the slightest tremor, so there's no way to tell any clues from it with the naked eye.

"It was an extremely small sound, as if something was slowly cracking..."

Bai Jingjing also knew that Wu Liang and others might not be able to hear the sound that she could hear, so she deliberately gave a more detailed description of the sound to help Wu Liang make a judgment on the current situation as much as possible.

"Be careful!"

Wu Liang nodded slightly and said to everyone, "The corpses of the four people behind must also be carefully guarded. There must be no negligence. If there is any abnormality, report it to me immediately."

"promise!"

Everyone responded quickly.

The atmosphere became solemn for a while. Everyone held the engineer shovel in their hands, and the "Warring States Repeating Crossbow" they carried with them was still ready to be fired at any time.

It seemed as if a war was about to come.

Everyone waited quietly like this, no one made any rash move, and even their breathing was slowed down as much as possible so as not to make any sound. They could only hear the unique gusts of wind in the Bailongdui.

When Zhuge Liang saw the situation below, he couldn't help but feel worried. He pulled Yu Ji beside him and asked nervously: "Old sir, why did Brother Youcai and the others suddenly become motionless? Could it be this small lake?"

Is there anything weird about it? They were possessed by evil spirits and were immobilized like the crazy sister said, right?"

"this……"

Yu Ji also noticed this situation, his old face had already wrinkled into a bitter melon, and he couldn't help complaining, "I just advised the young master not to cause trouble, but the young master has his own ideas and refuses to listen to what I say, alas.

, now I am left as an old man and you as a child, unable to carry my shoulders or lift my hands, what should I do if the young master and the others are really possessed by the evil spirit..."

"Old sir, you can't say that."

Zhuge Liang did not lose his bearings because of Yu Ji's words. He thought about it and retorted, "Besides the two of us, there are more than a dozen soldiers here who are willing to follow Brother Youcai through life and death. If Brother Youcai is really bewitched, with my

With the brains and the old man’s knowledge, plus the strength of these soldiers, it’s not like nothing can’t be done. It’s just that we still have no way to determine what’s going on with Brother Youcai. If we make our own decisions, we might mess up Brother Youcai’s situation.

Plan, I cannot bear this responsibility."

Yu Ji has lived to such an old age, and there are very few things in the world that can make him ashamed, so he did not feel the slightest discomfort after being rebutted by Zhuge Liang.

He stroked his beard and pondered for a moment, then his old eyes suddenly lit up and he said attentively: "Speaking of which, I have a way to verify the current situation of the young master and others, and at the same time, it will not mess up the young master's plan."

"Oh? Come on, old gentleman, come and listen!"

Zhuge Liang quickly came over and asked eagerly.

"Simple."

Yu Ji turned around and came to a soldier of the Hu army, stretched out his hand and said, "Brother, please lend me your repeating crossbow."

Yu Ji is a key member that Wu Liang relies on very much, so the soldiers of the Hu army naturally have no reason to refuse.

After taking the "Warring States Repeating Crossbow" from the soldier, when Yu Ji looked at Wu Liang and others by the lake, he had already pointed the "Warring States Repeating Crossbow" at the gravel ground at his feet, and then gently triggered the engine.

include.

"Snapped!"

Two iron arrows were shot out and inserted into the ground.

The next second.

"?!"

Bai Jingjing, who had remained still before, immediately turned her head and looked at the high ground where Yu Ji, Zhuge Liang and others were with a confused expression.

"Miss Bai turned back, and the young master also looked back. It seems that he is not possessed by evil spirits, but that the young master may have made some unusual discovery and is leading them to investigate carefully."

Seeing the reactions of Bai Jingjing and Wu Liang, Yu Ji quickly smiled and waved to Bai Jingjing, indicating that everything was fine here. At the same time, he felt relieved and said to Zhuge Liang with a smile.

"Sister Jingjing's hearing is really amazing. She can hear clearly from such a long distance."

Zhuge Liang also sighed sincerely.

When Yu Ji saw that Zhuge Liang did not praise his own wit, but instead praised Bai Jingjing's excellent hearing, he felt a little depressed in his heart, and immediately started boasting: "I'm also a master of the art of talking to others. You

It’s just that I came a little late, and I have never seen the wonderfulness of the art of begging. I think that when the young master went to the tomb of Haihunhou in Yuzhang, Yangzhou, if I didn’t have the art of begging..."



"What happened up there?"

Wu Liang noticed that Bai Jingjing suddenly turned around, and looked back. He happened to see Yu Ji waving his hands with a smile, and he couldn't help asking a little strangely in his heart.

"Someone fired an arrow from a repeating crossbow for some unknown reason."

Bai Jingjing said seriously, "But Yu Ji waved to us, nothing unexpected happened, so don't worry about it for now."

"It's probably because we haven't made any movement for a long time, and we are worried that something will happen to us, but we don't dare to disturb us, so we used this method to test."

Combining Bai Jingjing's description and seeing the repeating crossbow in Yu Ji's hand, Wu Liang had already made some guesses.

"Um."

Bai Jingjing nodded in agreement.

"Is there still that little voice?"

Wu Liang asked again.

"It has never stopped, and it is becoming more and more frequent. Don't let your guard down."

Bai Jingjing replied.

"Um."

Wu Liang nodded slightly. The tiny ripples around the four legs of the camel never stopped. It seemed that its body was most likely undergoing some unknown change.

at this time.

"Crack!"

There was a sudden sound that Wu Liang and others could hear clearly.

And the source of this sound is also the camel.

Moreover, Wu Liang and others could clearly see that the camel's head shifted slightly to the right, and with this shift, some tiny debris fell down from the camel's neck.

The dregs fell on the clear and translucent water, so they were very conspicuous.

"This is?!"

Wu Liang narrowed his eyes, and while holding on to the umbrella, he continued to observe the camel carefully.

I saw that the camel's neck, which had been calcified into cement gray, had several small cracks on the surface, and through these small cracks, you could vaguely see a hint of bright red that seemed to be slowly seeping out...

Is this bright red blood?

If it is blood, then the camel is most likely alive, because whether it is calcified or dead, the camel's blood will coagulate quickly and it will be difficult to maintain such a color.

If it weren't for blood...

That's hard to say, at least Wu Liang hasn't been able to make an accurate judgment yet.

Immediately afterwards.

"Click! Click! Click!..."

More noises that could be heard by everyone came, more scum fell into the lake, and there were more and more cracks. The camel's head was also constantly moving, as if it wanted to turn its head.

Come and look at them.

at the same time.

The joints on its legs also began to crack, and they were also bending extremely slowly.

it seems……

Just as Fang Qiong said, he came back to life!

It's just that this severely calcified body restricts its movements. Before that, it must break free from this armor-like shackles before it can regain its freedom.

If it is still alive, this is undoubtedly an extremely painful process. Even if it breaks free, it will probably lead to death. This is definitely not as simple as just peeling off a layer of skin.

And if it is dead...

So what is controlling its body and making it "alive" again?

"Son..."
