Chapter 875 Pan Chi Pattern (4000)

"dead body?"

Everyone hurriedly followed the sound.

Wu Liang was walking at the front and quickly came to the shouting soldiers of the Hu army and looked at the hole dug in front of them.

I saw a foot wearing straw sandals exposed in the rather solid red soil.

What followed was a stench.

It was a unique smell of rotting corpses. Wu Liang and others were already very familiar with it. During their previous visits to the tomb, they had even smelled the smell of corpses that had been fermented for thousands of years, so there was nothing they could not adapt to.

However, this dead body was different from what was imagined.

This does not look like a corpse that has been dead for many years. Its condition looks more like the floating corpse floating in the Yellow River that Wu Liang and others saw not long ago.

Its skin was white and swollen, and accompanied by severe rot.

So much so that the straw sandal on that foot had torn the skin and was embedded in the swollen flesh, and some disgusting viscous liquid oozed out from these wounds, which should be the corpse flowing out of the severely decomposed corpse.

water.

"this……"

Everyone couldn't help but wonder, and couldn't help but ask, "How can this dead body be so fresh, as if it had just been fished out of the Yellow River not long ago?"

"And this dead body still appears in this piece of solid red soil... No matter how early this place is, it must be a historic site thousands of years ago. Under normal circumstances, the dead body has been buried here for so long, and there is no special preservation method.

It is extremely rare to have a single skeleton left, and it is absolutely impossible to maintain such a fresh appearance."

Yu Ji did not stand far away this time. Instead, he came closer to Wu Liang and looked at the dead body closely for analysis. "Also, the red soil around the dead body looks equally tight and compact, so we can rule out that there is something wrong with it."

It's possible that someone buried this dead body here recently, huh... Young Master, what is going on?"

"..."

The question he raised was not only a question in the hearts of everyone in the Hu army, but also a question in Wu Liang's heart.

This dead body is obviously unusual, and it is necessary to study its origin in depth.

"Brothers, you go explore elsewhere first, and leave this place to me."

Unable to find the answer at the moment, Wu Liang had no intention of wasting precious time with everyone here, so he turned around and waved to everyone, leaving only the backbone of the Hu army to assist.

Then he personally picked up an engineering shovel and jumped into the pit to clean up the red soil around the dead body.

He planned to dig the dead body out of the red soil first. Only by seeing the whole body could it be possible to analyze the identity of the dead body and make more accurate inferences.

in addition.

It can be seen from this exposed leg that the clothes on this corpse are also relatively well preserved. If the style and fabric of the clothes can be found out, the age of the corpse can also be judged based on this.

Of course, it would be even more perfect if we could find some identity-representing jewelry and belongings on this dead body.

"Sir, I'm coming too."

Upon seeing this, Dian Wei immediately picked up an engineering shovel and jumped in.

However, in order to avoid affecting Wu Liang's more meticulous cleaning work, he only stayed one foot away from the dead body, just to further expand the hole and create more convenience for Wu Liang's exploration.

However, just after digging three or four times, Dian Wei suddenly stopped again, and then looked at Wu Liang with a surprised look on his face: "Master, look at this..."

"What?"

Wu Liang looked sideways.

But he saw that Dian Wei had dug quite deep with his shovels, and in a large clod of soil he had just dug, there was actually a ball of whitish stuff that looked like carrion embedded in it, and in this ball of carrion, there was still something mixed with it.

Judging from the length of some black hairs that are bunched together, they are probably human hair... After all, the area they are currently in is not an extremely cold place, and there are basically no animals with long hair.

Wu Liang immediately looked at the red soil dug by Dian Wei.

I saw a piece of white stuff exposed in the solid red soil, and around that piece of stuff, there were also some carrion and black hairs scattered around.

"This is……"

Wu Liang frowned slightly, already having doubts in his heart.

However, he did not jump to a conclusion. Instead, he nodded to Dian Wei and said, "Brother Dian Wei, dig this thing out as well, but be a little more careful next time and try not to cause any damage to him."

"promise."

Although Wu Liang did not accuse Dian Wei, Dian Wei felt guilty for his recklessness just now, and he did not dare to dig aggressively again. Instead, he carefully cleaned up the red soil near the thing like Wu Liang.

The backbone of the Hu army stood outside the pit to help transport the soil, but they also had their own guesses in their hearts.

"Old sir, I see that the white thing in the soil looks like a human skull. Dian Wei's shovel should have removed the scalp of the second corpse..."

Zhuge Liang whispered while carrying a basket of soil with Yu Ji.

"You, this kid, have a pretty good eye, so it shouldn't be too bad."

Yu Ji nodded slightly, but his old face had already wrinkled into a chrysanthemum, and he said with a worried look, "But this is not a good thing... Do you know what it means to dig up such a dead body that has not completely decomposed after thousands of years?"

"

"I don't know. Please explain it to me, sir."

The curiosity on Zhuge Liang's face became even more intense, and he asked quickly.

"Either the yin energy here is extremely strong and can support corpses, or the yin and yang here are reversed and life and death are chaotic. Both situations are very easy to give birth to incredible corpses, which will only make our situation more dangerous."

Yu Ji said with a solemn expression.

"Zombie? Is that thing very powerful?"

Zhuge Liang also began to worry after hearing this, and asked a little unconfidently.

"Not only is it powerful, the corpse demon that has been around for thousands of years has probably transcended life, death and the way of heaven, and is something that can be compared with immortals. Do you think such a thing is something that we mortals can resist?"

Yu Ji stared sideways into Zhuge Liang's eyes and said seriously.

"~~~"

Zhuge Liang was stared at so hard that his vest went cold, but he persisted like a curious baby, "You must be trying to scare me, right? I think the corpse dug up by Youcai and Dian Wei should not be a corpse, otherwise,

How could Dian Wei shovel off a large piece of its scalp with a shovel? And even if there is a corpse, I am not afraid. Brother Youcai is not a mortal, and his snare drum is very powerful. I heard Chen Jinshui said that the snare drum can kill

Scared away by the beast, which is more powerful than the corpse demon."

"How come I have never heard of this?"

Yu Ji was stunned for a moment.

"That happened a long time ago. You are not familiar with Chen Jinshui, so how could he talk about these past events with you... Moreover, Chen Jinshui also said that this matter is a secret matter of the Hu army, and he only talks to me.

People have said it and taught me not to mention it to others, otherwise he may be scolded by his talented brother, but the old gentleman is not an outsider, so there should be no problem if I talk to the old gentleman about it."

Zhuge Liang lowered his voice and said.

At this point, Prince Chamu came over at some point and interjected: "Are you talking about the time when the young master used that mysterious little drum to scare off Jian? I also know about this, and Chen Jinshui also told me,

He also told me that he only told me this and told me not to spread the word."

"Well……"

Zhuge Liang was stunned immediately.

…

As they dug like this, Wu Liang and Dian Wei became more and more frightened.

Not long after, they dug out the two corpses completely. Needless to say, Wu Liang's corpse was indeed a human corpse, and the mass of carrion with black hair that he shoveled was indeed a human corpse.

Human scalp.

But the difference is.

Wu Liang dug up a male corpse, while Dian Wei dug up a female corpse.

The two dead bodies looked the same as the floating corpses seen in the outside world before, and the soft tissue was soaked and swollen and the degree of decay was not much different.

Judging from the remaining clothing on these two floating corpses.

They are indeed not corpses of hundreds of thousands of years, but dead people of this era.

Especially the male corpse that Wu Liang excavated. Wu Liang actually found a white jade accessory on the waist of the male corpse. The sculpture on this accessory was obviously the most popular panchi pattern in the Han Dynasty. This undoubtedly further

This confirmed Wu Liang’s judgment.

"How come a floating corpse from this era appears in this secret realm, and also in this layer of rammed earth that is suspected to be an ancient ruin?"

Wu Liang's doubts became more and more serious.

When they were crossing the river outside, they had seen a large number of floating corpses in the river that had gathered in the water before the Holy Mountain. However, when they entered this secret place, they did not see any floating corpses in the water.

That is to say, those floating corpses in the water should have no connection with this secret realm...

But now, they have dug up floating corpses here, and they are still embedded in the solid rammed earth layer. How to explain this?

besides.

What shocked Wu Liang even more was that as he and Dian Wei dug up the two dead bodies, they immediately discovered other dead bodies in the red soil next to the two dead bodies.
To be continued...
