"Girl." Everyone bowed first, and then said, "Send it to the island."
"How to deal with it?"
They looked at each other and said, "Of course, according to the custom of us people in the Western Regions, we will bury him in water."
The so-called water burial is a ritual after death for people in the Western Regions, and it is also the highest etiquette.
People in the Western Regions will put the body of the deceased person on a bamboo raft, push it to the sea, and chant salvation. The more noble the status, the greater the pomp, and even the highest-status person in each tribe will personally bury the person.
To show honor.
After listening to Qingwu's explanation, Ling Xuewei suddenly felt bad.
"All corpses must be burned centrally, otherwise once the corpses transform, they will become those monsters. Moreover, these monsters carry extremely heavy corpse poison. If they are not cremated, if the corpse poison pollutes the sea water, it will cause irreparable consequences."
"Ah? This..." Several soldiers looked at each other, and one of them looked dissatisfied, "Burning? How can this be done? That is blasphemy to the dead soldiers! We Western Region soldiers must be buried in water after death, otherwise they will be cursed by the sea.
, fall into the realm of animals forever, and will never be reincarnated for the rest of their lives!”
The soldier's tone was very excited, and his expression showed dissatisfaction, as if Ling Xuewei was the villain who wanted to destroy them.
Qingwu and several secret guards subconsciously stood in front of Ling Xuewei, staring at them warningly.
Ling Xuewei didn't expect that their reaction would be so big. If all the soldiers here thought so, then the matter... would be serious.
The movement here quickly attracted the attention of many soldiers.
Ling Xuewei didn't want to cause a commotion, so she left directly and went to find Ji Mingzhao in person.
"Is something wrong?"
"I want to talk to you about the disposal of the body."
"What do you mean? Is there any problem?"
"The corpses must be burned centrally, otherwise if it causes corpse transformation or pollutes the water source, the consequences will be disastrous. I think the Red Emperor must have heard about the way we dispose of corpses. Your people have not realized the seriousness of the matter until now, thinking that
Water burial is irrelevant, if this continues, it will only lead to an even greater tragedy."
"You guys go down first."
Ji Mingzhao dismissed the people around him, and waited until there were only two people left, then said, "Miss Ling, I know what you are worried about, but water burial is a tradition left over from ancient times in our Western Region, and is regarded as an honor by the tribesmen and warriors.
If we forcibly change it, it will only cause panic and riots. Now that the war is approaching, if the morale of the military is unstable, it may affect subsequent operations. I have to put the overall situation first."
Ling Xuewei wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Ji Mingzhao, "But don't worry, I will tell the people below that at special moments, all etiquette should be kept simple. Choose some more remote and uninhabited Dead Sea. In this way, it can be considered foolproof.
"
Ling Xuewei knew that Ji Ming's edict was about this, and it was useless to persuade him.
However, she always had an ominous premonition in her heart, feeling that if things continued like this, something would happen.
As a last resort, Ling Xuewei asked the secret guards around her to go down and keep an eye on her, just in case.
At this moment, a soldier suddenly ran over in a hurry and said, "Your Majesty, something happened on the island!"
One stone stirs up a thousand waves!
"What's going on?"
"Half an hour ago, a group of monsters suddenly appeared in the sky..."
It turns out that the ghost spirit broke through the miasma and arrived on the island, and is now wreaking havoc on several islands. When the soldiers received the news, they immediately came to report it.
"go back!"
Ji Mingzhao no longer delayed and led his men to rush towards the inner island.
Ling Xuewei also followed closely behind.
Soon, they passed through the miasma and arrived at the scene of the accident. In the distance, she saw dark clouds in the sky covering her eyes. Only when she looked closer did she realize that the so-called "dark clouds" were just gathering ghosts.
They spread out and attacked the people below. The warriors who came to inquire were fighting with them in the air. Unfortunately, there were too many ghosts and they were menacing, so they were caught off guard.
There were already many corpses of soldiers lying on the beach. The ghosts gathered and sucked their souls. Soon, the soldiers turned into mummies.
Looking at the corpses lying on the beach, Ji Mingzhao looked ugly.
"Pass the military order from me, and the entire Dragon Shark Army will be dispatched. If the enemy cannot be defeated within half a day, everyone will come forward to see you!"
"I obey my orders!"
Several red flares rose into the air, exploding bloody flowers on the sea.
Soon, the sea surface surged, and there was a vague tsunami heading here. If you look carefully, you can see that there are dense shadows under the sea water. Those are soldiers. They are very fast, riding the wind and waves. There are several huge figures in the sea area.
!
They were getting closer and closer, and finally, accompanied by several roars of sea beasts, countless huge silhouettes that covered the sky and sun rushed out of the sea!
It’s a whale shark mount!
Each of these whale sharks is ridiculously big. When they rush out of the sea, they set off huge waves that are hundreds of feet high. They are majestic and powerful.
On the back of the whale shark are majestic and solemn warriors. They have blue skin, wear scale armor, and have shark-like fins on their backs. They hold steel forks and are majestic.
This is the Red Emperor's Dragon Shark Army.
The Dragon Shark Army can be regarded as the most brave army in the West Sea, and was trained by the Red Emperor. Most of the warriors here are from the shark tribe. They are extremely powerful and explosive. The key is that they can drive the overlord of the ocean, the whale shark, to their own advantage.
They rushed to the beach and fought with the ghosts! They neighed from their noses, and this neighing sound was similar to a whale's cry and a unique attack method of sharks. It was like a shock wave, scattering the ghosts!
Weaken their strength, and their counterattack begins!
No matter how many ghosts there were, their attack power was not strong and they were quickly defeated. It must be said that the dragon shark army was indeed brave and good at fighting. In less than half an hour, the commotion on each island was calmed down.
No wonder Ji Mingzhao was so confident.
"Don't worry, Miss Ling, these things are nothing to worry about."
Ji Mingzhao came to comfort Ling Xuewei.
Ling Xuewei frowned slightly as she looked at the beach that was gradually calming down.
Could this attack be pacified so easily? Why did they suddenly launch the attack?
She has seen an army of tens of thousands of zombies, and it is definitely not the only one of this size. Even though the dragon shark army is too strong, the destructive power of the zombie army is not weak, right?
Furthermore, since we have already entered the sea, why did we choose to attack a few insignificant outer islands instead of the Emerald Island? Wouldn't it be easier to waste all this effort and go straight to the nest?
Suddenly a spiritual light flashed quickly, and Ling Xuewei suddenly looked in the direction of Emerald Island.
"not good!"
"What?" Ji Mingzhao was confused.
"The opponent's goal is the Emerald Island! We have fallen into a trap!" Ling Xuewei said.
Ji Mingzhao reacted very quickly, and soon thought of the connection, and his expression suddenly changed!
"Go back to the island!"
Ji Mingzhao waved his hand and rushed into the void! Everyone rushed back to the Emerald Island. (To be continued)
