Han Ziyue said: "The Tuolang Corpse Sewing Beast is so powerful that it is difficult for us to deal with it, let alone the soldiers in the army. If the Regent and the others have really entered the realm of life and death, there will be no corpses of soldiers here. But We didn’t see any human corpses along the way…”
After listening to what they said, Fu Heng held the black flag in his hand and felt that it made sense. He nodded and thought seriously.
Ye Zhenfeng looked at Fu Heng and asked, "Your Majesty, there is something I want to ask."
Fu Heng raised his head, looked at him and said, "What's the matter?"
Ye Zhenfeng said: "When the Chili people attacked Hengwu Kingdom, who captured King Chili Zaizhi in the end?"
Fu Heng said: "When the Chili people attacked the Hengwu Kingdom, the Hengwu Kingdom's army was defeated. In the end, Sufeng led the secret guards to capture the Chili people, and the Chili King Zaizhi was also captured by Sufeng."
Ye Zhenfeng nodded slightly, held his arms in his arms, looked at the lingering poisonous mist at his feet, and said, "So it's Sufeng's idea to let Zaizai go?"
Fu Heng said: "I was studying in Da Yang Mansion at that time. The specific situation is not very clear, but I heard the palace people discussing it privately. At that time, my father did not want to let him go back, for fear of letting the tiger return to the mountain. Later, Su Feng advised him. Only if you fight hard can your father be willing to let him go."
Han Ziyue looked at Ye Zhenfeng and said, "Zhenfeng, why do you suddenly think of asking this?"
Ye Zhenfeng said: "I thought it was a little strange when the Sufeng soldiers retreated from Suishui. The regent had been marching and fighting for many years. How could he not know where the advantageous position was? How could he be forced into such a situation? Now that I think about it, everything It's possible that he had planned it long ago."
Fu Heng frowned slightly and said, "How do you say this?"
Han Ziyue said: "Could it be that the regent's withdrawal from the Realm of Life and Death was not forced but voluntary?"
Ye Zhenfeng said: "Don't forget that the person who was kind to King Chili back then was Sufeng. I think the people of Chili will not forget his kindness."
He pointed at the black flag and said: "Since Sufeng entered the realm of life and death with the flag of the regent, it is enough to prove that my guess is not wrong. He retreated to the realm of life and death deliberately. Your Majesty, I want the regent to There should be no fear for life.”
Fu Heng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I hope so."
The three of them continued to walk forward. I don't know how long it took, but they only encountered a few Tuolan Corpse Sewing Beasts along the way. They were able to deal with them easily with the strength of the three of them.
At dusk, they finally found a stone house in the forest, and the three of them couldn't help but feel excited. But looking at the two mummies hanging outside the stone house, the three of them were all shocked.
After years of hanging in the sun, the two corpses had been dried and turned into sallow mummies. Their death state was extremely horrifying, with sunken cheeks, bulging eyes, and open mouths in a look of terror.
All of them had only their upper bodies, and their lower bodies had been chopped off. They were dragging three red ribbons, like human intestines, squeaking and swaying in the wind.
A red-eyed crow squatting on a branch was watching the three of them silently. Suddenly it let out a shrill scream, flapped its wings, and pounced towards Fu Heng.
"Your Majesty, be careful!" Ye Zhenfeng rushed forward and killed the crow with his palm.
The crow struggled a few times on the ground and died with its paws raised to the sky.
Looking at the blood on the crow's wings, Han Ziyue said: "It's so scary, but fortunately it wasn't turned into a corpse-stitching beast!"
Fu Heng said: "No matter how powerful the crow is, it is just a bird.
, even if it is made into a corpse-stitching beast, it is of no use, it is just a waste of energy. "
Ye Zhenfeng said: "Chili people are good at playing Gu, so don't take it lightly!"
Han Ziyue nodded, and then said: "There must be something strange in the stone house. Should we go in and take a look?"
Ye Zhenfeng glanced at Fu Heng behind him, and Fu Heng nodded to him. He Han Ziyue said: "You are following me, everyone should be careful!"
The three of them cautiously approached the stone house slowly. Suddenly they heard a sound coming from inside the stone house. The night pillow was shaken by the wind and they hurriedly kicked open the wooden door.
I saw a man wearing a navy blue cloak inside. He wore an iron mesh mask on his face, covering the part below his nose. A pair of cold eyes looked back at them in panic, then raised his cloak and swung out of the way. He jumped out of the window.
"Hurry up—"
Han Ziyue shouted, holding the Flying Star Moon Chaser Sword and chased after him.
The three of them soon lost sight of the man in the forest, and finally returned without success and had to return to the stone house.
Inside the stone house, there were tools for sewing everywhere, including sharp daggers, scrapers, iron pliers, needles and threads... all on the table.
There was blood on the table, and there was a dying man lying on it. The man was about to speak, choked a few times, and finally died.
Ye Zhenfeng asked worriedly: "Are they from the regent?"
Fu Heng looked at the clothes on the man, shook his head and said, "No..."
Han Ziyue said: "Maybe it's someone who misinformed about the realm of life and death."
Fu Heng said: "That weird man seems to be performing some kind of surgery on him."
The three people's eyes were all focused on the man's waist. The corpse had sunken cheeks, round eyes, and was skinny. The body was full of ribs. It was not much different from a mummy. His lower body had been chopped open by a knife. His internal organs and intestines flowed all over the table, and the blood on his body was all over the floor.
Han Ziyue reached out and dipped some blood on the table, rubbed it back and forth with her fingertips, and couldn't help but frowned: "This blood is still hot. He was cut off at the waist, and he is still alive?"
Ye Zhenfeng said: "It should be because of this!"
I saw a tiny blue bug crawling out of the man's open mouth. The blue bug looked like a beetle, but it was very small, and its outer shell was bright blue, like a sparkling sapphire.
Fu Heng took a step back and said nervously: "This is the Tuo Lang Gu worm. Tuo Lang is in his mind, eroding his brain and controlling his nerves. So just now we thought that person was alive, but in fact he was controlled by the Gu worm. That’s all.”
Ye Zhenfeng picked up the dagger on the table and stabbed it into the Tuo Lang Gu insect. The Gu insect squeaked a few times and then died.
Han Ziyue said: "Tuo Lang Gu insects themselves are not tenacious. It is entirely because they hide in the bodies of blood soul beasts and control them that they become feared."
Fu Heng nodded and said: "Yes, and it is extremely small and difficult to detect. Even if it leaves the host, it can find another host. Once it penetrates into the brain of a living person along the ear hole, The brain of that living person will be eaten by it and controlled by it."
"No matter what, I always feel that this realm of life and death is not a good place, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people afraid of it!" After Han Ziyue finished speaking, she couldn't help but touch her arms with both hands. She looked around and felt that the stone house was dark. There seemed to be something secretly watching them.
Night pillow wind
He nodded and said: "Everything in the realm of life and death is too weird. I think it would be best for us to find Sufeng as soon as possible."
Fu Heng nodded, and the three of them exited the stone house.
They didn't understand why the weirdo wanted to perform such a terrible operation here. Did he want to turn humans into corpse-stitching beasts? That's so crazy and cruel!
Five days ago.
Sufeng led the army into the realm of life and death in a mighty manner. They marched under the banner of the Prince Regent's Palace, surrounded by poisonous fog that made it difficult to see.
Gradually, they went deep into the forest, heard the chirping of strange birds, and felt that there were wild beasts jumping around in the woods, but they were nowhere to be seen.
Suddenly, a sound was heard in the forest, and two giant black birds were seen flying from the sky. The giant birds were strange in shape, with a human body, a wolf's head, and bird wings.
The giant bird fluttered twice before slowly landing on the ground. The pair of black wings suddenly turned into hands, and a few black feathers fell on the ground. The black hair on the wolf's head also slowly receded, and finally transformed into two human shapes.
Both of them have white totems on their upper bodies and faces. They look strange and wild. They are the incarnations of wolf-winged birds. The wolf-winged bird is a blood soul beast domesticated by the Chili people. Those with a high level of cultivation can transform into human form.
Just when everyone was fearful and uneasy, they knelt down on one knee towards Sufeng and said, "May I ask if you are the regent Sufeng?"
Sufeng was wearing black iron armor, standing tall and straight on the horse, holding the reins with one hand, and said heroically: "Exactly."
The two of them looked up at Sufeng, and the one with shorter hair said, "My name is Alang."
The one with longer hair said: "My name is Feiniao."
Then, the two of them clasped their hands and said in unison: "On the order of King Chili, we are here to welcome the regent!"
Laikari and Momiji looked at each other with shocked expressions on their faces.
Laoshou said: "Your Highness the Regent, this... what is going on?"
An elusive smile appeared at the corner of Sufeng's mouth, and he said: "Back then, when I let him go, I had a gentleman's agreement with him. When I was in trouble, the realm of life and death would help me. Now, I am The debt came, but I didn’t expect that Zaizhi actually kept his promise!”
Hong Yeji smiled and said: "I see, no wonder your highness has to take us to the realm of life and death. In this way, the Chili people are our allies!"
Laoshou nodded and said: "I understand. No wonder we will be fine if we walk through the poisonous fog. Could it be that..."
Sufeng smiled and said, "That's right, the wine I drank this morning contained medicine to detoxify the fog."
Hong Yeji said: "So the fireworks you set off last night, Your Highness, were a secret signal to the Chili people, telling them that our army will enter the realm of life and death today?"
"That's right." Sufeng nodded and added, "That's why I specifically asked you to wear the flag of the Prince Regent's Palace to show your identity. We are not here to attack the Hengwu army in the realm of life and death, but the allies."
Alang said: "Your Highness, His Majesty Zaizhi has passed away, and now it is the new king who welcomes you to the realm of life and death."
Sufeng was shocked and said: "Who is your new king?"
Alang said: "Let your Majesty's daughter dream again!"
Feiniao said: "Before we come, Your Majesty Zaimeng asked us to tell you that the Chili people will abide by their agreement with you for generations. Please feel free to go to the realm of life and death, and we will guide you."
