The young master Akabane said: "Hongyi'er, please tell me about those half-human and half-tree wooden stakes!"
The red-clothed child felt much more relaxed and in a much better mood after his hands and feet were untied.
Grandma Qin looked up at the sky and said, "Little master, if it continues to rain, we might as well find a place to take shelter from the rain!"
Molong also said: "Yes! I'm soaked!"
The little master Akabane looked at everyone and said, "Okay! Let's find a place to take shelter from the rain!"
Molong said: "I'll find a place, you guys can take a rest first!"
After a while, Molong came back and said: "There is a cave in front. The outer cave is very spacious. We can go there to take shelter from the rain!"
So, the little master Akabane led everyone to hide in the cave to avoid the rain.
The cave is very large, and more than five hundred people inside do not feel crowded at all. From the depths of the deep cave, the distant and mysterious sound of running water can be heard.
Molong immediately ordered the soldiers to be on guard and cook.
Mo Ying clings to his little master Chi Yu, following him like a shadow.
Grandma Qin took the girl in red and sat on the stone in front of the little master Chiyu, who sat on a big stone near the cave wall.
Little Master Chiyu Cave: "Hongyi'er, now that you have settled down, continue talking!"
The man in red looked at everyone and said: "Those tree stumps are actually not trees, but people. They are soldiers trained by the Huang brothers. The Huang brothers have been working for a mysterious organization for decades.
Cultivate talents, including those half-human, half-tree soldiers, the Huang brothers gave them a name, tree stump soldiers."
"Stump Soldier, this name is interesting, and the Huang brothers are so damn creative!" Mo Long came back and sat on a rock and said.
The young master Chi Yu said: "Molong, don't disturb her, let her speak slowly!"
Then Mo Long sat quietly beside him and said nothing.
The red-clothed child looked at the little master Chi Yu, and then continued.
"Those stump soldiers are all strong young men captured from various places. They were first fed a kind of ecstasy drug called San..."
Grandma Qin said: "Crazy scattered! Are you crazy scattered!"
The girl in red looked at Grandma Qin with surprise and said, "How do you know?"
Grandma Qin smiled and said nothing.
The little master Akabane said: "Crazy scattered, isn't it highly poisonous?"
The man in red said: "The madness is divided into three categories. The first category is ecstasy, the second category is ordinary poisons, and the third category is highly poisonous drugs. Hey! By the way, how do you know?
Crazy and scattered?"
The young master Akabane briefly told the man in red what had happened in the castle a few days ago.
The red-clothed child's eyes widened in surprise, not knowing what he was thinking.
Seeing that the boy in red was thoughtful, the young master Chi Yu quickly said: "Did you think of something? You might as well just say it!"
The man in red smiled and said nothing.
The little master Akabane knows that she still has some concerns and should not act too hastily. When the time comes, she will naturally tell her.
At this time, the marching stove prepared the meal and everyone ate together.
The young master Chi Yu held the bowl and said to Grandma Qin: "Grandma Qin, when we were fighting with the red-clothed child in mid-air, the sound made by those skeletons was the same as the ghosts crying and wolves howling in the night sky that the veteran in the castle mentioned earlier.
Similar, is it the same thing?"
Grandma Qin said in a low voice: "This matter is not completely certain yet. We will ask her again after dinner!"
After the meal, everyone rested separately. Mo Long and Mo Ying were responsible for the safety of the young master Chi Yu. The man in red was taken to a corner of the cave and watched by a dozen soldiers.
Suddenly there was lightning and thunder outside the cave.
Everyone was woken up, and suddenly someone reported the news and said: "There are unusual sounds coming from deep in the cave. I'm afraid it's not safe here!"
The young master Chi Yu said to Mo Long: "Mo Long, go check it out and see what the situation is! Go right away!"
Molong came back after a while and said: "Little master, that's the sound of water. It's raining heavily in the mountains. I'm afraid water will come out of the cave, which means there will be a flash flood."
The young master Akabane said: "It's raining outside and it's not safe in the cave, so where should we go?"
Mo Long smiled and said: "Little master, don't worry, I have just investigated clearly, there is an underground river under this mountain, and the flash flood that breaks out will not pass through the cave where we are!"
The little master Akabane's heart dropped to his stomach.
Grandma Qin brought the girl in red over again. The girl in red's mood and attitude changed greatly. She sat down on the rock just now, and before the little master Chi Yu asked her, she spoke up.
Her life at Huangtian Villa was very painful. Huang Tu was a villain who appeared to be loyal but was actually very cunning. Huang Shui was even more unscrupulous and unabashed. The two brothers committed many evil deeds and died one hundred and eighty times without injustice.
Huangtu went out to look for prey, and many people were tricked by Huangtu. Huangshui experimented with medicine on them, turning them into stump soldiers who only knew how to fight.
One of them, Ah San, escaped by luck, but ran back on his own after a while. Because Ah San couldn't get the yellow water medicine outside and was itching all over, so it was worth coming back to beg for mercy.
Grandma Qin listened and knew that the man in red was not lying.
The Huangtian Villa was not big and could not accommodate so many stump soldiers, so they were transported here to station themselves. The stump soldiers did not need to eat or drink, so they just had to be buried underground.
The thoughts of the stump soldiers are controlled by the commander. On the battlefield, the commander can do whatever he wants. The stump soldiers are obedient and will not make any resistance.
There is also a mysterious army stationed here, the Skeleton Army. They are purely composed of lonely ghosts. They were also drugged by the yellow water, but they are very obedient.
The man in red chose dozens of them as his bodyguards, and even specially crafted a skeleton whip.
Seeing that she had reached this point, Mo Long asked: "A veteran said that around the castle, sometimes the ghosts and wolves howling in the night sky were the actions of your skeleton soldiers?"
You Hong Yi'er said: "That happened a long time ago. At that time, those skeleton soldiers were not used to the environment here and secretly cried in the middle of the night."
The little master Akabane said: "Oh! That's it!"
"Then, it is said that the army passed by in the middle of the night, and then why did so many tree crowns fall with the army?" asked the young master Akabane.
The man in red looked at his little master Akabane and said: "That skeleton army is the most yin thing. Once it passes by, it will absorb all the energy, and the tree crown will also follow the direction. It's not surprising!"
