I also suddenly thought of the smoking method.
I can burn the wormwood leaves into pieces and let them smoke, then sprinkle some exorcism on them and let the smoke penetrate into their bodies with their breathing. This may have some effect.
Without thinking much, I immediately asked Brother Ma to bring some wormwood leaf powder, then grabbed a handful of hay and sprinkled the powder on it. After lighting the fire, I wrapped it in a piece of cloth and sprinkled it with exorcism. Because the exorcism contains a lot of water, the cloth becomes damp after being sprinkled on it, which prevents the dry firewood inside from fully burning.
In this way, the smoke coming out will be very dense.
Then I put this thing in front of the women's faces and let them inhale it into their nostrils, but after trying it for a long time, it still had no effect.
I'm anxious now. I can't just watch them walk into the ancient city and get into trouble, right?
Forget it if something happens to other women, what if something happens to Xiao Ye and Sister Yuan?
"Can we tie them with a rope and hold them back? This way we won't get shocked, right?" Zhao Hu said suddenly.
I said I could give it a try.
Then, Brother Ma found two pieces of rope. I tied a knot on one end of the rope to make a loop, then put it on Sister Yuan and held her from behind.
You won't be shocked using this method, and although Sister Yuan is still walking forward, her energy is not very strong. After pulling the rope, she can only stay in place.
No matter what, at least I stabilized one first, and I immediately let the pigtails trap Xiaoye. As for the other women, I finally used this method to temporarily stabilize her.
Our two teams, excluding the man with the scar, totaled fourteen people, eight men and six women.
At this time, every woman was dragged by a man, and in the end only Jianzui and I were left free. I was able to free up because I was the commander-in-chief, and I had to carefully study what to do next.
Jianzui is timid and afraid of death. After seeing that Sister Yuan and Xiaoye were safe, he didn't really want to worry about the archaeological team and kept wandering in the distance, so he is still idle now.
"I think I can pull two people and free one more person." Zhao Hu said at this time. He let Xiao Zizi pull Xiao Ye to him. After Xiao Zizi passed by, he took the rope from Xiao Zizi's hand.
After giving it a try, he felt it was okay and the two women couldn't hold him back at all.
Now Sister Yuan and Xiao Ye were under his control, and the little pigtail was freed.
"What should I do next? I can't keep dragging him like this, right?" Jianzui looked at me and asked.
When Little Pigtail said no, she brought the camel over and let the camel pull them.
I said forget it, the camels were not obedient, and it would be even more troublesome if they got frightened and ran away.
"Why is it that us men are fine, but something will happen to these women?" Jianzui asked again.
I said this thing that might be causing trouble likes women.
At this point, Zhao Hu could still laugh. He laughed and joked: "This city lord is probably an old pervert. Those bones we dug up may be the city lord. This guy wants to get these women." Come to the city and be his wife?"
I said it was really possible.
"Then what should we do? Otherwise, capture the king first before capturing the thief. The three of you go in and kill the city lord directly. I guess everything will return to normal after the city lord does it."
I quite agree with Zhao Hu's suggestion. When we were at the Prince's Tomb before, when dealing with those armored soldiers, we captured the thieves first and captured the king first. As soon as the general died, the others immediately fell to the ground.
If we catch the city lord, everything will be fine.
When Jianzui heard that he was about to go in and kill the city lord, he immediately panicked. He smiled bitterly and said to me, "I can't do it. How about you two go in? I'll watch them here. If any of them need help, I'll help them." If I can help you, if I go in with you, I will cause trouble for you."
Even if Sharp Mouth doesn't say this, I won't take him with me. He is indeed a dragster, and there will only be harm but no benefit in joining him.
After thinking for a moment, I asked Pigtail and Sharp Mouth to drag Sister Yuan and Xiaoye to free Zhao Hu.
I told Zhao Hu that we both should go in.
When we were done, we each carried two guns on our backs, along with enough anti-evil medicine quicklime and rooster blood, and headed into the city.
We were not far from the ancient city, so we entered the city within a few steps. At this time, we could see new sand pits everywhere on the ground. Each sand pit represented a dead person crawling through it. out.
"This city is full of dead people. If the two of us go in, won't we be surrounded by them and be torn alive in an instant?"
Zhao Hu asked.
I pointed to the sand pit on the ground and said: "These dead people have already emerged from the ground. They should be surrounding the wooden tower. Let's try to walk inside first. If the situation goes wrong, we will run back. Don’t worry about dead people coming from all directions.”
"Oh." Zhao Hu sighed: "It would be great if the donkey was here. Donkeys can ward off evil spirits. We shouldn't be afraid of them getting close if we lead them in, right?"
"Although donkeys have the effect of warding off evil spirits, they may not be effective at all times. There are many kinds of evil spirits. Besides, we don't have donkeys now, so don't think so much."
As I said that, I saw a crowd of people in front of me.
At this time, we were still quite far away from the wooden tower, but the dozens of meters in front were already surrounded by water and there were dead people everywhere.
"What are these things doing around the wooden tower?" Zhao Hu asked.
I said I didn't know, and then I took out the flashlight, intending to find a high place and look ahead to see if there was anything unusual in front of the wooden tower.
It happened that a roof of a house nearby collapsed and the wall was quite high, so I climbed up directly to the top of the wall, then stood up and looked over there with a flashlight.
When the flashlight light hit the bottom of the tower, I saw six skeletons there, standing in a small open space, facing the surrounding crowd and not knowing what they were doing.
It felt like a concert, with all the people below being the audience, and also like an ancient general mobilizing for war in front, with all the soldiers below.
"How's it going? Did you see anything?" Zhao Hu asked me at this time.
I told him the situation, and he asked me again: "Then in the house where we dug up the Golden Crown before, weren't there six bones? Are they six of them?"
I said it was hard to see from a little distance, but it was probably them, because the others were all dead people with flesh, skin, and clothes, and they were the only ones with bones.
"That means that the old man is the city lord?"
I said that it should be, that golden crown should be a symbol of his status. Zhao Hu also smiled and said: "Then we are very lucky, we dug directly into the city lord's house."
I don’t know whether to say we are lucky or unlucky. If we dig into other wealthy families, we may be able to get the treasure and retreat safely. It is precisely because we dug into the city lord’s house that so many evil things have happened now. thing.
"Then if you shine your flashlight on them now, they don't respond?" Zhao Hu asked again.
I said there was no response, and then I specifically used my flashlight to shine on the bones, and even on their heads. They seemed unable to sense it and had no reaction.
