Chapter 192 The call from the Qin Dynasty
Chapter 192: Summoning from the Qin Dynasty
Li Yeling turned around and asked, "Shi Xiaopeng, when you came out, how many skeletons were besieging Qu Wenli?"
Shi Xiaopeng calculated: "When I came out, there were about fifteen or sixteen, and I don't know if it has increased now."
"If there are fifteen or sixteen," Li Yeling nodded: "That can be easily dealt with."
He said to Xiong Tao again: "Xiong Tao, you can go with me later. You are a mutant with strength, with a strong right arm as hard as iron. It is very suitable for dealing with this kind of skeleton. Follow me later and see the world well."
Xiong Tao nodded, with an excited and bloodthirsty light in his eyes.
After a while, Yan Qingyuan also came here. Li Yeling told her about the specific situation, and the group of four went quickly toward the other side.
The Xiqin Emperor Mausoleum is about two or three miles away from the campsite. The distance is fast and you can get there in five minutes.
The Western Qin Emperor Mausoleum is known as the number one tomb of the Chinese emperors. It covers an active and wide area. In addition to the giant rammed earth mound that is as high as 100 meters in the middle, it is the main body of the tomb, there are also a series of annexes. There are nine major halls in front of the rammed earth mound, and there are continuous palaces and mountains. There are also buildings such as side halls, enjoying halls and other buildings located near the rammed earth mound. The outer edges of these things are three city walls.
The outermost city wall is about ten meters high and stretches for dozens of miles. The entire southern bank of the Langan River is almost all in the area of the Mausoleum of the Western Qin Emperor.
But that is all the past. After thousands of years of military disasters and natural disasters, the cemetery has long been dilapidated. The three walls outside are only loess mounds protruding from the ground, which seem to still show the glory of the past. After passing these three walls, further inside, there is a wilderness, silent and uninhabited.
Several halls stand alone on the wasteland, which are the survivors in the supporting structure of the cemetery.
"Captain Li, look, the building on the front right is a three-in-one palace with walls, doors and yards. Later, the Xiqin Emperor Mausoleum Museum was built by the Ningbei Provincial Cultural Relics Bureau. Now Captain Qu and others are trapped inside." It can be seen that Shi Xiaopeng is very familiar with this place and gives guidance one by one.
It was already dark at this time, but with the deep white light reflected by the snow, you could still see some scenes in the distance. Sure enough, there was the building in front, with tall red walls and the vermilion door under the gate tower, and you could listen with your ears in your ears, and there were bursts of gunfire and metal hits from inside.
Li Yeling suddenly thought of a question and frowned and asked, "Shi Xiaopeng, why are you doing here in the museum? Don't tell me it's because of curiosity, that kind of excuse is too clumsy."
Shi Xiaopeng scratched his head and smiled awkwardly: "This, this...you'll ask him before you rescue Captain Qu, hehe..."
Needless to say, Li Yeling basically guessed the whole story, and was too lazy to argue with him, so she shook her head and walked towards the museum.
On the vermilion gate, a large wooden plaque with the words "Xiqin Emperor Mausoleum Museum" was hung high, which was very antique. What made Li Yeling feel strange was that when he walked from Anxi City, most of the artificial buildings became dilapidated due to lack of warranty. For example, the last time the China Construction Bank was even destroyed. However, everything here was well preserved, and the large wooden plaque was very clean, and there was not even a trace of dust.
What's even more evil is that the steps and the door and the bottom are clean, without any snow. This is very abnormal, because the door and the weather is warmer today, and the south wind blows, just blowing snow particles in. Li Yeling and his friends walk inside again, and the scenes they see are even more shocking.
The first yard was spotless, and the snow was swept under a big tree, and even the roof of the side hall was swept down. Li Yeling glanced at the corner of his eyes and saw a few brooms, dustpans and other things placed on the corner of the wall, with fresh traces on it, and it was obviously someone used it from time to time.
It is obvious that someone cleans it all the time!
But in the end of the world, who would clean it? It was desolate and wild, and there was no food at all. There was no need for people to eat. How could anyone live here? Even if humans live here, they should not clean it all the time. Who would attach so much importance to the living environment?
Everything here is full of strangeness.
Yan Qingyuan gently grabbed Li Yeling's sleeve. Li Yeling frowned and said, "Shi Xiaopeng, what's going on? Do you know?"
Shi Xiaopeng also had a pale face and his teeth trembled: "Captain Li, this was the case when we came just now. No!"
He suddenly opened his eyes wide, looked around and shouted: "Absolutely not right. When we came just now, it was definitely not so clean. Moreover, the placement of the dustpan and broom is also different. It was placed in another corner of the wall just now, but now it is opposite."
Everyone was shocked, that is to say, the yard was cleaned again during the period from Shi Xiaopeng's departure to everyone's arrival.
Hearing this, even Xiong Tao felt something was wrong.
Li Yeling was silent for a while and suddenly laughed loudly: "What are you afraid of? With me here, you don't have to be afraid of anything. In this end of the world, all mysteries are useless, and only strength is the most real. Look at me, Li Yeling, breaking this ghost and monster with one punch!"
After saying that, he walked loudly to the next yard, where the gunfire came.
When he stepped into the Second Courtyard Gate, Li Yeling and others were stunned.
Skeletons, countless skeletons, all of which are skeletons. The entire length and width are more than 100 meters. The extremely spacious second entrance yard is now almost filled with skeletons. These are indeed skeleton soldiers, about 1.8 meters tall, and some are even taller. The bones are thick and the surface of the bones is covered with a layer of white.
What surprised Li Yeling the most was not this. After all, he had been vaccinated by Shi Xiaopeng before, and now he is somewhat mentally prepared. What shocked Li Yeling the most was that these skeleton soldiers seemed to be wise.
Not every skeleton soldier has a weapon in his hand. Some skeleton soldiers have brooms in their hands. In groups of five, they are cleaning up the snow in the courtyard and making the snow into small snow piles. Other skeleton soldiers with extra thick and powerful looks are in groups of three. They are carrying a large bamboo basket and one with iron elm, shoveling the snow in the snow pile into the bamboo basket, and then pouring the snow in the bamboo basket under a big locust tree in the yard.
There were also some skeleton soldiers who were holding rags in their hands, dipped in snow water, wiped the window lattice columns, and wiped them very carefully, looking meticulous. Some of them had a clever figure, climbed up the ladder to the roof, holding small chisels and shovels in their hands, chiseling the snow and ice on the roof.
All of this made Li Yeling and others feel irritated.
The division of labor is orderly and well organized. This is not a skeleton soldier, it is clearly a group of humans. It is extremely strange! When Shi Xiaopeng saw this scene, his first reaction was to turn around and run away. Li Yeling grabbed his coat collar and said, "Where are you going?"
Shi Xiaopeng was already frightened and couldn't speak incoherently, but was just dancing. Li Yeling said in a sequel: "You stay here honestly today and can't go anywhere. Otherwise, I will let you live or die! You should understand my methods!"
At this point, Li Yeling can see that today's incident is definitely inseparable from Shi Xiaopeng. What did Qu Wenli come to the Western Qin Emperor Mausoleum for inexplicable reasons? Maybe he instigated him. Qu Wenli is smart, does not panic at the critical moment, and is also meticulous. He is a good seedling that Li Yeling finally discovered. He is about to cultivate it, but this incident happened today. How can he not be angry?
Hearing Li Yeling's words, Shi Xiaopeng looked at Li Yeling for a moment. Although he had never seen Li Yeling's methods before, he had heard them many times. For a moment, he felt regretful, and suddenly sat on the ground with his eyes dull, and he no longer spoke.
Li Yeling looked inside again and saw Qu Wenli and others in a corner of the yard. They were forced to a corner of the yard, where there was a big tree and a flower bed was formed around the tree. The few of them were circulating with the skeleton soldiers relying on the narrow terrain in the corner of the wall. There were about a dozen skeleton soldiers surrounding the three people, each of whom had tall bones.
When Li Yeling saw the weapons they were holding, his eyes suddenly shrank, and a huge fear suddenly surged in his heart. He shivered and small particles appeared on the surface of his skin.
The weapons in the hands of these skeleton soldiers were all swords without exception. The sword was narrow, thin and long, nearly one meter long, with a cold blue light on it, which was obviously made of bronze. There were three ridges of more than 90 cm long on the bronze sword, which divided the slender sword into eight sides, and each side was shining with cold light.
This kind of sword is the most typical Qin sword! This family has no semicolon in history!
In the museum of the Red Flag Army's Grand History Department, Li Yeling has seen this long sword more than once. This is the special sword of the Qin Dynasty soldiers. Although it is made of bronze, it is extremely sharp and extremely tough.
This is the key to the terror of Li Yeling. Could it be that these sword-holding skeleton soldiers were all soldiers of the Qin Dynasty thousands of years ago?
Li Yeling suddenly remembered a legend. It is said that when the Emperor of Western Qin was seriously ill, Prince Fusu, with the support of General Meng Tian, rebelled in Yu Shuofang and led 300,000 troops to march southward and headed straight to Xianyang City. Later, the Emperor of Western Qin personally led the army to defeat the rebels and killed Meng Tian and Fusu, but he also died of illness on the way back.
Later, based on the will of the Emperor of Western Qin, the rebellious army of 300,000, together with their family, were killed in total, and buried around the Emperor's Mausoleum of Western Qin, protecting the Emperor's coffin forever.
"Are these people the Qin army soldiers who were killed two thousand years ago?" Li Yeling was shocked by the thoughts that came to his mind.
