Chapter 27 Section VI

A strip of cloth two fingers wide was in Xi Yan's hand, and he had read it many times under the lamp. It was an extremely simple letter, written in charcoal, and the strips of cloth seemed to be torn from the corner of the clothes casually, so random to the extreme. 〖My brother like meeting: I heard that the incident happened suddenly, and the coalition forces were trapped in Shangyang Pass with corpses.This technique is the method of corpse voodoo, it was passed down from Yunzhou, few people know about it in the Eastern Continent, only Taibu is knowledgeable, or has heard of it.Corpse Gu devours the soul of a person. It can be used on corpses or on living people. If a seriously injured person is devoured by Corpse Gu, he will lose his nature, and it is no different from the resurrection of the dead. They are all zombies.Corpse Gu is extremely difficult to remove, but there are flaws.It is a large array of secret techniques to raise more than ten thousand dead with corpse Gu, which is called the array of corpse hiding.Where there is an array, there is an array master, and the array master is still in Shangyang Pass.The array master dies, and the secret method is broken.I will tell my brother about this, or it may be an opportunity for me to become an official.By brother self-determination.

Brother Mushou sincerely respects〗 Xi Yan finally let out a long breath, rolled up the cloth again, and stuffed it into his belt. "Uncle, what is it talking about here?" Xiyuan, who was waiting at the door, couldn't help being curious, and leaned over. "It means that to solve our current crisis, we only need to kill one person." Xi Yan said lightly. "Alone?" Xi Yuan's eyes widened, "Who?" Xi Yan looked at his impatient nephew, and smiled wryly: "If I knew, wouldn't I have found it and killed it long ago?" "I don't know? What should I do then?"

"According to my guess, this person will appear by himself, because he still wants to kill us. If he doesn't show up, how can he kill us?" Xi Yan asked his nephew with a smile. Xiyuan froze for a moment, unable to answer. "I'm curious now, where did this person who secretly helped us come from, and why did he do this?" Xi Yan asked quietly. "Could it be a trap?" Xiyuan asked. "Now is not the time for suspicion. We are in a place of survival. Even if it is a trap, we can only try!" Xi Yan clenched his fist and slammed it lightly and forcefully on the table.

"Uncle, please rest early. General Bai ordered that the bones of the soldiers who died in battle be burned tomorrow to prevent the spread of the epidemic. It can also be regarded as a funeral. General Bai said that the heavy casualties this time are the death of the country and the soldiers. Centurions and above, except those on duty, are present, and it is counted as mourning for the dead." "At this time, such a fancy funeral is still going on, probably Bai Yi was injured, and he feels sad." Xi Yan was silent for a while when he said this, "What really makes him sad is the wounded soldiers he ordered to kill, right? For a proud person like Bai Yi, such a thing cannot be tolerated!"

At noon, under the dazzling sun, corpses piled up like mountains. This is the time when the sun is at its fullest, when the power of growth permeates the whole world, and the breath of death is thus shunned and dissipated, and resentful souls will not take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble.Therefore, the funerals of the Eastern Continent countries are customarily arranged to start at noon. The soldiers of Chu Weiguo lifted up the corpses one by one and piled them on top of each other, laying firewood and sprinkling oil on each layer.Surrounding the pile of corpses were sergeants bowing their heads in silent mourning. Each of them had a withered complexion, a sad expression, and their mouths were tightly pursed in silence.They are all people who have seen the battlefield, but they have never seen so many corpses piled up like this, and these people were all their comrades-in-arms and brothers.The huge mountain of corpses is as sad and angry as the totem of death, and the young soldiers couldn't help trembling slightly.

The last corpse was finally brought up, it was Xue Dayi dressed in the attire of a centurion.When he died, he was still an ordinary veteran, but he remained calm in the face of danger, raised his voice to warn, and made great contributions. Otherwise, this crisis would not be resolved simply by killing thousands of wounded soldiers.After finding his body from the crowd, Bai Yi ordered him to be promoted to a centurion, and he was cremated wearing the centurion's armor. "General, everything is ready." The soldiers walked behind Bai Yi. "Light it up." Bai Yi's voice was hoarse.

The soldiers received the order and lit their torches. They ran a few steps, approached the pile of corpses, and threw the torches with all their strength.The torch fell on the oiled corpse and immediately ignited a raging flame.The flames rolled from top to bottom, and the pile of corpses finally turned into a black smoke billowing volcano. The smell of burning corpses was so foul that everyone couldn't help but vomit. But no one dared to move, because Bai Yi didn't move. Bai Yi stood like a stone statue, facing the corpses that were gradually becoming charred and turned into ashes. These people were all his soldiers.He stood the closest, making one feel that he was about to be engulfed in flames and black smoke, but he seemed completely insensitive to the heat and stench.

When the black smoke almost covered the sky, Bai Yi suddenly sang: 〖Picking lotuses for Qing and wading through the water, It's a long battle to capture the flag for Qing. Looking at Xici Palace for Qing, Sing slowly for Qing Baifa. 〗 This was originally a love song in the countryside of Chuweiguo, but in his hoarse and high-pitched song, the taste changed, like a roar, and sad like a funeral song.At the end of the song, there were sobs from the ranks of the soldiers. These soldiers were often from farmers in the same hometown. They used to cover each other's backs on the battlefield, but now they can only watch their bodies turn into ashes. Knowing whether he could leave this gate alive, the fear that had been pent up for a long time came out together with sadness.Finally, a young soldier couldn't help but knelt down, crying hoarsely.

Bai Yi's personal soldiers immediately came up and dragged down the young soldier who had violated military discipline, but his cries still seemed to hover around, making everyone feel like a nail was stuck in their hearts. Xi Yan stepped forward slowly, walked to Bai Yi's side and stood side by side with him, and glanced at his old friend.But there was no sad expression on Bai Yi's face, unlike the one who saw him rushing out at the gate of the baggage camp that night. At this time, Bai Yi just stared at the flying flames, his expression was indifferent, but there was a hint of sadness. An uneasy feeling.

"What are you thinking?" "I was thinking that many years ago, we were all in Tianqi, two young people who were pretentious but not valued in the Jinwu Guard. Then you became a Tianqi, I gave up that fingertip, our fate This has become completely different. And suddenly one day, I will fight side by side with you, facing the same enemy." Bai Yi said softly. Xi Yan sneered: "Is this kind of stupid thing your General Bai should say?" "They didn't come here for the drive of the sky. For their goals, those who hide in the dark can kill anyone. They never care about human life." Xi Yan whispered, "Looking at what is in front of you now, don't you understand?"

"You and I, cooperate again." Bai Yi suddenly turned his head.He raised his eyebrows and growled lowly at Xi Yan, like an angry lion king. Xi Yan tilted his head, glanced at the old man's eyes, with a sneering smile, as if mocking the anger in Bai Yi's eyes: "What is the cooperation?" "I want those people of Chenyue to pay for their stupidity and faith!" Bai Yi trembled suddenly when he said this, his voice trembled, revealing a hideousness that had never been seen on him. "General Bai, are you eager for revenge?" Xi Yan asked coldly. Bai Yi looked at him without answering. After a long time, Xi Yan stretched out his hand, and Bai Yi also stretched out his hand. The two clenched tightly at the same time, so strong that their faces twitched at the same time.
