The other mercenaries were also stunned by the scene before them. All of them had serious expressions and were filled with awe. Before leaving, many of them even paid homage to the bone wall.
Back at the fork in the road, Long Xiangtian and the others turned and entered a road that Long Xiangtian had never been to. In fact, Long Xiangtian was quite unsure. This was his first time entering a tomb to search for treasures, and incredible things happened one after another. Now he was separated from his backbone Chen Lufu. He had no experience in treasure hunting and suddenly felt a little confused.
"I'm here." Yunniang took Long Xiangtian's arm and comforted him.
Long Xiangtian felt warm in his heart and suddenly had strength. Calming down his restless heart, Long Xiangtian walked while scanning the surroundings.
Unfortunately, the expected mark did not appear. Long Xiangtian frowned and thought: It seems that Chen Lufu did not enter this passage. Could it be that Chen Lufu fell into the trap like himself? But that's not right. If Chen Lufu also fell into the trap, he would have stayed there for a whole day. There is no reason not to meet Chen Lufu. But since he did not fall into the trap and did not enter this passage, where would he go? Go home? It's unlikely. He and Yunniang are still missing. Even if he is guarding the door of the stone gate, he will not choose to go home.
Long Xiangtian felt that his brain was not enough.
Just as he was thinking about it, the mercenary who was exploring the way suddenly ran back with a look of shock on his face, trembling and said, "Dead... dead man!"
Long Xiangtian and Nulimu looked at each other, and Nulimu said in a deep voice: "Be alert and don't embarrass yourself. It's just a dead person, what's the fuss? Explain it carefully!"
“Yes… yes.” Obviously, Nulimu’s words didn’t have much effect. The mercenary trembled and said, “Mr. Pease, dead… dead… and, he was… skinned alive!”
"What did you say! Take me to see." When Nulimu heard that the missing Peace appeared here and was skinned to death, his face suddenly became gloomy and he followed his men forward.
Long Xiangtian also knew that something had changed again, so he hurriedly followed. After walking a few steps, a strong smell of blood came over. Unlike the smell of blood with the stench of corpses in the Blood Spirit, the smell of blood here was obviously much fresher. Long Xiangtian soon saw the source of the bloody smell.
Pease was hung naked on a stone pillar, with nothing on his body, and his neck and below were a bloody mess, as if his skin had been peeled off alive. Pease's face was horrified and twisted, and his eye sockets were black, as if his eyeballs had been dug out.
This bloody scene made many people's stomachs churn, but having seen the blood spirit before, this feeling quickly passed.
Long Xiangtian walked to Pease's side and walked around the stone pillar, but couldn't find anything unusual. Suddenly, Yunniang shouted, "Look!"
Long Xiangtian looked in the direction Yunniang pointed. It was Pis's nostrils, and there seemed to be something vaguely stuck in the nostrils.
Nulimu reached into his pocket and took out a toothpick. He was the tallest man, so he could just touch Pease's nose. He poked the toothpick in and immediately poked out two small particles. Long Xiangtian took a closer look and found that it was Yinshi wolfberry.
"What does this mean?" Long Xiangtian asked Yunniang.
Yunniang frowned and thought for a while, then said, "If I remember correctly, this should be a method of refining corpses."
"Corpse refining? Didn't you say that Yin Corpse Wolfberry is used to cure diseases and save lives?"
Taking this opportunity, Yunniang recounted the story she heard when she was a child.
Long Xiangtian was shocked after hearing this: "You mean, that young man is very likely the God of Death Bai Qi? But how did he get from China to Machu Picchu... and he is still alive now! Can Yinshi wolfberry really make people immortal... Also, he has taken all the Yinshi wolfberry away, so could he be the one who killed Pease? This is too chaotic!"
Yunniang smiled helplessly. Not to mention Long Xiangtian, even Yunniang, who knew some historical stories, felt confused before her eyes. Machu Picchu and China, two places that had nothing to do with each other, were gradually overlapping because of the Yinshi wolfberry. What secrets were hidden in this? Long Xiangtian didn't know.
However, Long Xiangtian suddenly remembered the task given by the strange voice when he first went down to the tomb. It seemed to mention a name called Fu Ge.
"Guo'er, do you know Fu Ge?"
"Fu Ge? He seemed to be the leader of a tribe in ancient times. However, he was later killed and sealed by the sword fairy sent by the heavens because of his cruelty and bloodthirstiness."
Long Xiangtian quickly repeated the task he had received in Yunniang's ear.
Yunniang didn't pay attention at the time, but now after hearing what Long Xiangtian said, her expression suddenly changed: "You mean, the person buried in this tomb is not King Xipan, but that Fu Ge?"
Long Xiangtian smiled bitterly and said, "If that were the case, it would be easy. What I am most afraid of now is not that King Xipan is not here. Rather, I am afraid that Bai Qi, King Xipan and Fu Ge are in the same group, or even the same person!"
Yunniang fell into deep thought after hearing this. It was indeed as Long Xiangtian said. If these three people were connected together, then what they would face next would probably be much more terrifying and difficult.
Putting aside other things, the young man who looked like Bai Qi was not someone that everyone on the field could deal with. In addition, the fact that Pease had Yinshi wolfberry on his body made Long Xiangtian feel that this matter was closely related to the young man in white.
But it was useless to think about it. What was going to happen would eventually come. In order to see Chen Lufu, Long Xiangtian had no choice but to go on. He remembered what Yunniang had just said about corpse refining, so he asked, "Guo'er, what was the corpse refining you just mentioned?"
Yunniang explained.
In ancient times, there was a mysterious and terrifying race that dealt with corpses for generations. They were called corpse drivers. Many people who died in foreign lands would be transported back to their hometowns with the help of corpse drivers. It was said that they did not carry the corpses on their backs or use carts, but relied on a secret technique to make the corpses move on their own and follow the corpse drivers all the way back to their hometowns.
Later, this secret technique was used by some people to do some shameful things, including the evil secret technique of refining corpses. It is said that if you block the seven orifices of a person when he is about to die, you can keep his soul in the body, and then use special methods to prevent the body from rotting for 49 days. Then, the person will be reborn and become an immortal zombie, a conscious zombie.
