Chapter 137 The emperor kills ghosts, boosting morale!
Not to mention bull heads and horse faces, not even the heavenly soldiers or generals can scare him.
Qin Yun took a look and was not worried about Mr. Feng. He jumped off his horse and picked up the fake Pei Ren's purple court uniform with the tip of his knife!
There turned out to be a doll made of silk thread, dummy skin and wood!
Qin Yun glanced around unhappily and yelled at the Imperial Guards: "A bunch of trash, what do you think this is if you don't see it?"
"The Emperor is here, where are the ghosts and monsters?"
"Everything is just someone deliberately causing chaos!"
The Imperial Guards looked ashamed and lowered their heads.
I was so scared just now that His Majesty even asked His Majesty to take action himself.
At this time, Mr. Feng jumped out of the forest, his expression not very good.
"Your Majesty, let him run away. This man knows alchemy and has great magical powers. This old slave just caught a piece of his robe as a cover-up."
Qin Yun nodded: "It's all a deception, I've seen it a long time ago."
"Grab your sword, mount your horse, and go to the imperial mausoleum!"
He immediately mounted his horse, not wanting to waste time and not knowing what kind of chaos Xiao Jian was in.
The Imperial Guards mounted their horses one after another and rushed to attack the imperial mausoleum.
At the southeast corner of Mang Mountain is the Mausoleum of the Daxia Emperor.
At this moment, the huge cave entrance was filled with gloomy winds and shrouded in black clouds, giving it a doomsday scene.
Ghost shadows kept flickering, ghosts crying and wolves howling, shouting for their lives.
Especially the will-o'-the-wisp floating in the air, once frightened many soldiers to flee.
If Xiao Jian hadn't been holding a knife and sitting here, they would have dispersed into a group.
I have to say that using ghosts to scare people is far more intimidating than an army of 100,000 people! The ancients believed in this and compared ghosts and gods to God's will. If you don't obey, there will be natural and man-made disasters.
"General, what should we do? No one dares to go up."
A deputy general wearing armor, tall and thick-set, with an ugly face.
Xiao Jian glanced around at the frightened eyes. Many people were scared to death. He had no good solution for the moment.
How to get rid of the ghosts in the imperial mausoleum?
The morale of the army is in chaos!
There is a dark wind outside, and ghost fires are rising. If we attack rashly, there is fear of cholera.
At this time, iron hooves formed.
Qin Yun is here!
Thousands of soldiers showed a hint of joy, His Majesty has arrived!
The emperor is like a god. Once he arrives, there will definitely be a way to deal with ghosts and monsters!
I saw Qin Yun holding a bow and arrow. He pulled it with all his strength, and the bowstring trembled!
"Look at me, see if there are any ghosts or gods there, it's just a deception!"
"I am the only true God!"
Qin Yun roared angrily, filled with heroic spirit, loosened his grip, and arrows shot out of the air.
The emperor's arrow not only kills ghosts, but also boosts morale!
"Zheng!"
The arrow pierced the sky, passed through the ghost fire, was fast and accurate, and hit a ghost figure at the entrance of the imperial mausoleum with the force of thunder.
The ghost stumbled for a while and then fell to the ground.
The soldiers looked with wide eyes and couldn't believe that a ghost was killed by His Majesty just like that?
In an instant, the fear in their hearts was reduced by half.
Qin Yun yelled: "Ghost shadows and will-o'-wisps are all made from Jianghu magic and human skin threads!"
"All officers and men listen to the order and come to me to kill the ghosts!"
Xiao Jian looked at it with a hint of admiration in his eyes. Your Majesty is indeed your Majesty, with unparalleled courage!
He decisively drew his knife and pointed it forward.
He roared loudly: "Follow the emperor's order and kill the ghosts!"
He took the lead and rushed towards the imperial mausoleum.
The infected soldiers were no longer afraid. Regardless of whether it was true or not, the emperor was sitting here and killed the ghost.
"Follow the emperor's order and kill the ghost!"
Thousands of troops and horses roared!
The momentum is like thunder, and the blood is strong. Because I was afraid just now, I am even more angry now!
That movement shook the mountains.
I'm afraid even a real ghost would have to take a detour, right?
A rumbling sound erupted, and thousands of soldiers came forward together, as if they had been given blood.
When he saw the ghost, he roared and slashed at it. With one blow, the ghost fell to the ground, revealing silk threads and dummy skin.
"Hahaha, Your Majesty is right, it's really a deception!"
"Brothers, don't be afraid, cut it quickly, these are all fake human skins!"
"I'm so angry that I was frightened by this blind trick! Kill!"
Qin Yun rode a high horse and watched the "ghost elimination operation" around the imperial mausoleum from a distance.
He suddenly sighed and said: "This little magic trick has harmed me again. These people should all deserve to die."
"Warlock, is this Wang Min's handiwork?"
Feng Lao said with a serious face: "Your Majesty, the royal family and nobles can no longer hide this matter. If the culprit is not found, it may be difficult to eliminate the rumors."
Qin Yun is very calm now.
He said with a cold gaze: "I have a way to eliminate the rumors. I will order you to go down and find the rotting animal carcasses."
"In addition, summon all the emperor's relatives and military generals."
"I want to show them personally what the will-o'-the-wisp is all about!"
Mr. Feng was stunned for a moment and didn't understand why he was looking for animal carcasses, but he still did it.
About a quarter of an hour later.
Xiao Jian came to report and killed all the ghosts, totaling more than a hundred sets of dummy skins and silk threads.
There are only many will-o'-the-wisps that are still burning and are difficult to extinguish.
The haunting that lasted for half the night finally subsided.
But the aftermath was so great that the entire Mang Mountain was panicked.
On the martial arts field.
Many officials and relatives of the emperor came here to participate in the ancestor worship.
Many rotting animal carcasses were lined up in the square, and the stench caused many ministers to feel nauseous and talk about it.
"My dear friends, the haunting incident has subsided!"
"Have you seen what General Xiao has in his hand?"
They all looked at Xiao Jian, the dummy skin, silk thread, and wooden block.
Qin Yun put his hands behind his hands and looked down and continued: "The so-called ghost shadow is just a little trick of the alchemists. They use silk threads to pull the puppets to create the illusion of ghosts and gods."
"All of you have been deceived!"
Some people breathed a sigh of relief when they saw irrefutable evidence such as silk threads of human skin.
But there are also ministers and nobles who look uneasy. The ghost can explain it, but what about the will-o’-the-wisp?
There are blue and white will-o'-the-wisps rising all around, which is ominous!
Qin Yun glanced at the crowd of people below and knew what they were thinking, so he said calmly: "Come here, bring some red-hot charcoal!"
"yes!"
Tao Yang went down in person, led several forbidden soldiers, and brought two pots of burning charcoal.
The heat can be felt from a great distance.
"Place the carbon blocks in a circle around the rotting animal carcasses." Qin Yun commanded again.
Tao Yang did as he was told.
There was deathly silence below. The ministers and nobles opened their eyes wide, not knowing what they were doing.
At this time, Qin Yun stopped talking and waited calmly.
The so-called will-o'-the-wisp is actually the "phosphorus" in the body of a person or animal after death. When exposed to high temperatures, it accelerates chemical reactions and then burns.
Ancient people did not know this knowledge at all.
If Qin Yun hadn't traveled through time, he would probably be scared to death tonight.
As time passed by, the ministers in the martial arts arena became restless.
When rotting animal carcasses are exposed to high temperatures, the stench is unpleasant.
Except for the hard-working sergeants, the other ministers and nobles basically vomited. Qin Yu, the idle prince, even vomited water.
But Qin Yun didn't speak, and no one dared to leave.
A trace of sweat quietly slipped from Qin Yun's forehead, and he secretly thought in his heart, to save face, burn it quickly.
I don't know if this heating method will work. After all, this is his first time operating it.
Finally someone couldn't bear it anymore.
"Your Majesty, what are you waiting for? The smell is so unpleasant and the heat is so hot that many people can no longer bear it!"
"Your Majesty, Princess Qingyang, Mrs. Qingguo has fainted."
"Please, Your Majesty, be considerate of us and remove the rotting animals!"
