A group of people stayed there in confusion, not knowing what to do. The young man looked depressed and kept staring at the soldiers on the ground. Fan Weishu and Yao Dan kept their eyes on Du Ruoxi. Among the three of them, Du Ruoxi was the main one.
As for the little Taoist priest, he was also playing with the peach wood sword given to him by his uncle. It seemed that the little Taoist priest was also duplicitous and still yearned for this peach wood sword.
"Okay, in that case, let's look for an exit together. By the way, what's your name?" Du Ruoxi was a strong girl. She quickly recovered from the blow and asked the young man.
"My name is Qin Yu." The young man looked up and replied with a smile: "It's not okay for us to stay like this. You come here first to see this soldier."
Du Ruoxi and others gathered around after hearing this. Qin Yu pointed at the soldier on the ground and said, "Look carefully at the armor on this soldier. Do you find anything?"
"Armor? Isn't this just bronze armor? Is there anything special about it? Are there any words on it?" Du Ruoxi asked curiously.
"Bronze armor appeared in the Western Zhou Dynasty. By the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, due to the emergence of pig iron technology, bronze armor gradually began to be eliminated in the army. In subsequent dynasties, this type of heavy armor was rarely seen because of the drag on it.
Wearing dozens of kilograms of armor is even more of a burden for the soldiers, so when you saw this bronze armor, didn't you think of something?" Qin Yu reminded.
After listening to Qin Yu's words, Fan Weishu said: "You mean, these soldiers are soldiers from the Western Zhou Dynasty?"
"Although there was bronze armor in the Western Zhou Dynasty, it definitely did not have such high purification technology. Look at the bronze armor on this soldier. The color is a bit purple. This is a manifestation of the extremely high purity of bronze. To have such a high purification technology, at least
In the period after the Song Dynasty, but after the Song Dynasty, which army would wear such heavy armor as bronze armor?"
In the dynasties that had this technology, bronze armor was already obsolete, but in the dynasties that used bronze armor, there was no such high purification technology. Which dynasty did this army come from? The people present were lost in thought.
"Didn't the little Taoist priest say that these soldiers are Yin soldiers? Maybe the weapons and armor of Yin soldiers are not updated so fast. Besides, who can say for sure about the underworld?" Du Ruoxi guessed, and the more she talked, the more she felt about her guess.
Very likely.
But after Du Ruoxi finished speaking, she found that Qin Yu just smiled and shook his head, obviously not agreeing with her guess, which made her a little unconvinced. She felt that her guess was very possible, but the next step of the young Taoist priest
Her words completely rejected her guess.
"It's impossible. My master said that the Yin soldiers in the underworld are actually the soldiers in the Yang world after they die. Therefore, what the Yin soldiers looked like before they were alive is what they will look like after they die. Therefore, the Yin soldiers are all in one team.
Those who appear in one group rarely form a large army, because these Yin soldiers come from different battlefields, and only those who died on the same battlefield will form a team of Yin soldiers."
In history, there have been many unofficial records about the Yin soldiers. Even after the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were two famous incidents of Yin soldiers. One was the Tangshan earthquake. It is said that after the earthquake, many people saw some ancient soldiers coming from
Walking out of the ruins of the earthquake, many people saw this scene, and the story spread widely. Many people thought that it was because of the earthquake that the gap in the underworld opened, and these underworld soldiers accidentally came out.
The other time was in Wuhan. Those who are familiar with modern history will know that during the Anti-Japanese War, the Chinese army and the Japanese army fought and killed the largest number of Japanese soldiers in the Battle of Wuhan, which wiped out 30,000 Japanese soldiers.
During the devastating flood of 1998, the city of Wuhan was also hit by floods. However, after the flood, some citizens discovered that they saw Japanese and Chinese troops in the place where the Chinese army and the Japanese army fought in Wuhan.
There was even the sound of bayonet shots being heard.
However, this time the government moved quickly. After receiving the information reported by citizens, it immediately sent troops to surround and blockade the place. The troops did not withdraw until three months later.
"Then you should tell me what dynasty these Yin soldiers were from before they were alive. According to what you said, it is impossible for these soldiers to exist during their lifetime." Du Ruoxi said angrily.
"Ruoxi, that's not necessarily the case." Yao Dan spoke softly on the side. Her words attracted everyone's attention. Yao Dan organized his words and said, "I once saw it on TV.
, the emperors of some dynasties would wear some special armor on their soldiers when worshiping their ancestors or heaven to show their importance to the festival. Is it possible that these soldiers wore bronze armor for this reason?
Woolen cloth?"
"It's very possible." Qin Yu nodded and agreed: "From this point of view, it is very likely that this team of soldiers was a special force during their lifetime and did not need to go to the battlefield. In this way, everything can be explained.
"
"Dandan, I can't tell. You can still think of this. It seems that this TV is not for nothing. She is indeed the drama queen of our dormitory."
Du Ruoxi patted Yao Dan on the shoulder and gave her thumbs up. Among the four girls in their dormitory, Yao Dan liked watching TV series the most, but unlike some girls nowadays who follow Korean dramas, Yao Dan only followed palace struggle dramas.
.
Yao Dan was a little embarrassed to be praised by everyone. Fan Weishu glanced at Du Ruoxi, then at the soldiers on the ground, and poured cold water on him: "Knowing this doesn't seem to have much to do with us now, and it won't be of much help to our current situation.
, these are Yin soldiers, dead people, even if we know their identities in life, it is of no use, not to mention, we have only speculated on a little bit of information."
"This is not a Yin soldier."
Just when Du Ruoxi wanted to refute, someone spoke before her. The speaker was Qin Yu. Qin Yu turned the soldier over and said in a deep voice: "This Taoist brother just said that Yin soldiers are Yin soldiers."
Spirits have no body, at least an ordinary Yin soldier cannot have a body, and I have just carefully inspected it, this soldier is definitely not a Yin soldier, I can guarantee this."
Qin Yu's words made Du Ruoxi and the three of them a little confused. The young man named Qin Yu and the young Taoist priest had completely opposite opinions. One said that the soldier was a Yin soldier, and the other said that he was not a Yin soldier. Which should they do?
Which one to listen to.
"Actually, I can't guarantee that this soldier is a Yin soldier. Since the elder brother said that this soldier is not a soldier, it must not be the soldier. I am just guessing." The young Taoist priest was stared at by Du Ruoxi and the other three, and said rather embarrassedly.
"Then Qin Yu." Du Ruoxi looked at the young man and said, "Since these soldiers are not Yin soldiers, how could they live for so long? Are they not monsters?"
"What's so strange about this? There are zombies that have existed for thousands of years. How is it possible for soldiers to live for such a long time? And haven't you noticed that the state of these soldiers is very different from that of normal people, rather like the living dead."
Qin Yu's eyes flickered, he looked at everyone, and said: "No matter what kind of troops these soldiers are, they are our only clue at the moment. If we want to go out, it is best to follow them."
"But those soldiers have gone far away, and it's gray here. How can we follow them?"
Qin Yu smiled, looked at the young Taoist priest and said, "Brother Taoist, can you lend me your peach wood sword?"
"No problem." The young Taoist priest didn't hesitate and handed the Taomu Sword directly to Qin Yu. Qin Yu took the Taomu Sword, bit his finger open, and drew a talisman in the air under the confused eyes of Du Ruoxi and the others.
Then he put a drop of blood on the soldier's armor and a drop of blood on the peach wood sword.
The Taomu Sword buzzed and trembled when it was stained with blood. After hovering over the soldier's head for a few times, it suddenly flew forward, but the speed was not very fast, which was the speed of an adult.
"Follow this Taomu Sword, it will lead us to follow these soldiers." Qin Yu took the lead and followed the Taomu Sword towards the front, but he didn't know that several people behind him were standing there dumbfounded. They were all affected by Qin Yu's methods.
So shocked.
The first person to react was the young Taoist priest. After all, he was also a disciple of Shangqing Palace. He was not too surprised by Qin Yu's method. He knew in his heart that this was the Taoist technique the master mentioned, and he had also seen the master and the others perform it.
Passed by and immediately followed him.
"Ruoxi, who is this Qin Yu? He can actually make the Taomu Sword fly. How come this is more mysterious than what he does on TV?"
"I don't know either, but I think it's because this peach wood sword is not ordinary. I heard the little Taoist priest say that this peach wood sword is the magical weapon of his master's uncle. He took good care of it for a period of time. There is something magical about it.
It’s understandable, let’s follow up first.”
Du Ruoxi turned around and saw that Qin Yu and the young Taoist priest had almost disappeared into the depths of the mist. He quickly urged Yao Dan and Fan Weishu to follow him first. No matter where Qin Yu came from, at least in this place, the more powerful he was, the more powerful they would be.
Safety is also more guaranteed.
"This Qin Yu should be from the world of metaphysics. What he performs is a Taoist technique." Fan Weishu whispered in Du Ruoxi's ear as he followed.
"How do you know? Fan Weishu, I found that you know a lot." Du Ruoxi glanced at Fan Weishu and said meaningfully.
"My uncle at home has some Taoist books. When I was in high school, I liked to go to my uncle's house to read these books when I had nothing to do, so I knew a little bit about it." Fan Weishu explained with an awkward smile on his face.
"I hope so." Du Ruoxi said nothing more, and the three of them ran forward quickly, keeping up with Qin Yu and the young Taoist priest.
"Why did you stop?"
"There is no way."
The group of people followed Taomu Jian like this for about half an hour. Qin Yu at the front suddenly stopped, causing Du Ruoxi who was following behind to almost bump into him.
PS: I guess many book friends are wondering why Du Ruoxi suddenly appeared, and careful readers will find that my perspective in these chapters is centered on Du Ruoxi. In fact, the reason is very simple. The original plot of the underground palace is
I planned to develop it with Du Ruoxi as the center, just like Wu Xie in Tomb Raider Notes, and Qin Yu is a character similar to the little brother. However, I am afraid that many book friends will not be able to accept it, and Jiu Deng cannot afford it, so I decided to change it.
Looking back at the visuals, if some book friends find these chapters awkward, move the bricks and pat them lightly, it hurts!
In addition, the seventh update is completed! (To be continued)
