The first thousand two hundred and nine chapters avoid dust beads
As expected, it is a small village, with only about ten households, all with walls of earth and stone, wooden roofs, and no vermilion paint. It is very simple, but it is a poor place.
There are fences outside the house, some are neat and some are lopsided, looking extremely awkward.
The hearts of the generals sank. There were no dead branches and leaves in the courtyard. It was not an abandoned village. There should have been people living there a few days ago. Now there is no one. Coupled with the smell of blood in the air, I am afraid that this village is not a good one.
land.
Before Li Luo could give the order, Qian Yi waved his hand and shouted: "Search."
Although the dozen or so houses were sparsely located, it did not take much effort to search them. In less than half a moment, a soldier shouted: "Here!"
Li Luo and others rushed over. This was a wooden house that was much larger than other places. It looked like a building like an ancestral hall. There were no tables and chairs in the wooden house, and it was empty except for the corpses on the ground and the bright and dark faces reflected by the torches.
The uncertain Dagan soldiers.
When the soldiers who had shouted earlier saw Generals Li Luo and Qian Yi approaching, they replied in a deep voice: "General, there are thirty-eight corpses on the ground, twenty-two male corpses, and sixteen female corpses."
After saying that, the general paused for a moment, glanced at Li Luo's face, and continued in a low voice, "The men were all killed by sharp weapons. The blades were heavy in front and light in back. They were very similar to the sabers used by the enemy soldiers in Caohai. Women, most of them were women.
Humiliated to death.”
Li Luohuan glanced around and saw that the corpses on the ground were neatly arranged. They were corpses that someone had deliberately buried.
It is rare to see a man killed with one knife, most of them were stabbed several times, and there were a few corpses that were almost covered in blood, as if all the blood in the body was flowing out.
Such a method of death was extremely cruel and vicious. They cut these defenseless people one by one and waited until all the blood was gone before dying. This was no longer killing, but just having fun.
The woman's body was even more miserable, stained with blood and in a mess, which made the generals in the hall look at each other with dismay, and could only hear the suppressed breathing.
There is a female corpse at the far end, wearing a Confucian robe. Although it is just ordinary fabric, it is far different from the clothes of these villagers.
Li Luo walked over, lifted up Ruyi and took a look, suddenly coughed a few times, and the hand holding Ruyi could not help but tremble a few times.
The female corpse under the scholar's clothes had been dead for some time. She was about a girl in her twenties. Her eyes were closed, but the expression on her face was extremely sad and angry. Her lower lips had sunk deeply into her teeth, almost
His lips were bitten in two, and his face was a green and black color, twisted and hideous.
There was no trace of hair under the scholar's clothes, and it was covered with long and short blood marks. The bruises and bruises had begun to turn black at this moment, like earthworms burrowing under the woman's skin. Her lower body was in a mess, and her legs were no longer close together.
It was weakly and palely bent.
Li Luo coughed a few times, took off his coat and put it on the woman's body. He picked up the Confucian clothes that were incompatible with this village and asked calmly: "How long have you been dead?"
"Going back to the general, I saw the size of the spots on the corpse and the degree of rigor mortis that had been there for about two or three days.
One thing is a bit strange. Although it gets cold early in the mountains, these corpses should be rotting. However, not only are these corpses not rotting, but there are no mosquito bites, which is a bit unreasonable. "
"General, is there anyone collecting the bodies for them?" Qian Yi asked, looking at the Confucian clothes in Li Luo's hands.
"Probably." Li Luo glanced at the Confucian clothes in his hand and frowned slightly. Who on earth collected the bodies of these innocent villagers who died tragically? They seemed to be in a hurry, and they didn't have time to bury these bodies for peace, so they just moved them to a place for preservation.
stand up.
"Bury them."
"Yes, General." All the soldiers accepted the order in unison. Some moved the body, and some looked for a place to dig soil for burial. When marching, everything was kept simple, and there were not too many customs. A straw mat, a few
It is best to cover it with a piece of wood and put it in the ground.
Li Luo and Qian Yi were not idle either. They tidied up together. When everything came to an end, the two of them walked aside and quietly looked at the mounds of tombs standing in the forest.
"General, it seems that the remnants of Caohai have escaped into Linshan County."
Li Luo snorted, looked at the endless mountains and forests in the night, and sighed: "I don't care if these Cao Hai soldiers will flee to the mountains. I'm just afraid that they will hide in the mountains and not come out. They will occupy the mountains and become kings, and the Caohai soldiers will become bandits."
, but it’s really a disaster.”
Qian Yi frowned and wanted to kill the thief, but it was a pity that he was nowhere to be found in the vast forest.
At this time, a soldier walked over quickly, holding something in his hand, and said with a salute: "General, when my subordinates were burying the corpses of these villagers, something fell from a dead body. Please take a look at it, General."
Li Luo glanced at it, let out a slight sigh, and said in astonishment: "Bi Chen Bead?"
"The Bichen Bead..." Qian Yi and the soldier looked at each other, not knowing what the Bichen Bead was.
The object that Li Luo called the dust-proof bead in the hands of the soldier looked about the size of a walnut, and was gray in color. There was nothing surprising about it. The only thing worth looking at was that it was rounder and very inconspicuous.
If the beads hadn't rolled down and touched the soldiers' hands when they were moving the corpse, and they were very cold but not cold, they would have been regarded as a piece of dirt and pebbles and buried in the soil together.
"This thing is not common." Li Luo pondered for a few breaths. Seeing Qian Yi and the officers in the camp looking confused, he explained in a harmonious voice, "This thing is called Bichen Bead, but it is actually a rare giant spider inside.
Dan.
This spider is called the colorful spider. It mostly lives in remote mountains and old forests. It cannot build webs and bites to catch prey. It has a ferocious temperament. It feeds on birds, fish and smaller animals. It lives with water and is highly poisonous.
When they appear, they are often accompanied by miasma, which is extremely vicious.
It is said that the largest spider is as big as the mouth of a basin, and its back and abdomen are colorful, hence its name.
A colorful spider that has lived for more than a hundred years will develop an inner elixir in its body. Although this spider is highly poisonous, the inner elixir of the colorful spider is not only non-poisonous, but has the effect of avoiding poison. Some wealthy people place a dust-proof elixir in their houses.
The bead has no insects or ants within a few feet of it, so it can be called a strange object.
It is precisely because of this that the corpses of these villagers will not be bitten by insects and ants and are well preserved."
"There is such a strange thing." Qian Yi looked at the unattractive gray beads in the hands of the soldiers in surprise and exclaimed, "That should be called poison-avoiding beads."
"This bead can repel insects. It must be that the evil nature of the colorful spider still remains in the inner elixir, so insects and ants are not close. But in addition, this bead also has the miraculous effect of protecting the body from damage. It is often seen in princes and generals.
In the mausoleum, there will be no infestation by insects and ants, so there will be no dust, and the appearance of the body can be kept as it was when he was alive.
