Chapter 145 Borrowing the Corpse to Revive the Soul
After teaching the fat man's finger tips, Yun Yi told him the truth again. Although the fat man said he had remembered it, Yun Yi was still a little worried. The fat man's memory is not that bad now, but this guy's careless temperament cannot be changed. He is worried that the fat man will mess up the matter.
It was not until the fat man skillfully demonstrated the finger tips several times and recited the mantra silently that Yun Yi completely felt relieved.
"When will they come?" The fat man was a little anxious.
Yun Yi looked up at the sun. It was just after noon, and the yang energy was still very strong. If Lu Jun came at this time, it would be difficult for his plan to be implemented, because the yang energy would burn the yin soul, and the yin soul would not dare to appear during the day. Forced practice would only cause the yin soul to scatter.
The fat man just asked casually, and he knew that Yun Yi didn't know when Lu Jun would come. Seeing that Yun Yi didn't say anything, he knew that he was thinking about something, so he didn't talk anymore.
"Let's go, let's go now." Yun Yi suddenly stood up.
"Where are you going?" The fat man was stunned.
"Leave here first," Yun Yi said, "You go out of the city first, the sun sets and then come back."
"What are you doing?" the fat man asked in confusion.
"Don't talk so much nonsense, just listen to mine." Yun Yi turned around and went back to the room.
The previous fire was isolated by him in time and did not spread to his house, so the furnishings in the house were protected from burning.
Yun Yi took the talisman box and dragged the corpses of the officers and soldiers in the yard one by one to the street. After the storing, he drew four talismans to set up a formation to cover the yard.
The fat man did not leave. After waiting for him to set up the formation outside the yard, he asked, "Tell me a briefing, what do you want to do?"
"I'll go and observe the enemy."
"Let's go together!"
"Go out of the city honestly and don't consume your spiritual energy in vain. The sun sets and comes back. You will be busy at that time." Yun Yi's tone was stronger.
The fat man couldn't resist him and nodded: "Then you have to be careful."
Yun Yi responded and watched the fat man leave the city. Without the burden of everyone in his family, he could let go. Even if Hao Meng brought thousands of people over, he could run away even if he couldn't beat him.
Of course, Yun Yi did not plan to wait here. Even if Hao Meng did not bring his troops here today, he would fight back. The two sides had already formed a bond. What we should do at this time was not how to ease this situation. It was meaningless. It would be better to give the other party a headache so that the other party would not dare to act rashly in the future.
Just as he was about to go to the provincial governor's residence to find out, he saw the scene of officers and soldiers kicking the door and shouting, and he thought that these officers and soldiers were also robbing women, but he didn't expect that those officers and soldiers would only arrest men. This scene made Yun Yi dumbfounded.
But after thinking about it, Yun Yi understood that they were collecting corvee labor, or to be precise, they were pursuing corvee labor.
"I don't want to be in power, I don't want to go to war!"
"Mr. Jun. I have an eighty-year-old high school, and a cold wife and children under me. Please be fine and let me go!"
"June, I'm the only one who is a man. Please let him go!"
...
Noisy and noisy cries filled Xia Pi City. Yun Yi looked at the cruel scene of his wife and children from afar. The oldest arrested men were in their fifties, and the youngest were only fifteen or sixteen years old. Some knelt on the ground and begged for mercy but were forcibly pulled away, while some resisted desperately but were kicked down by the officers and soldiers and dragged away. Some men's families came up to tear them up, but they were inevitably beaten by the officers and soldiers.
"Whoever makes trouble will chop off his head!" An officer drew his sword and shouted: "This time, the military service will not be recruited, and you will not be allowed to go to war. You will go out of the city to work and will be back in three or five days!"
After the officer shouted, the people became much quieter in an instant. It was not that they believed what he said, but that the long sword in his hand was cold and terrifying.
But there were also a few who didn't listen to him at all. When he saw him draw his sword, his face turned pale, and he hurriedly broke free from the officers and soldiers who were holding him and ran away.
Seeing this, the officer looked cold and waved to a archer beside him. The archer understood and went forward to hand the bow to him, holding the arrow bag in both hands. The officer reached out and pulled out an arrow and fired at the man running in front.
The arrows of the string came from the man's back and penetrated directly into his chest. The man was shocked and threw himself down. The other people were so shocked that their souls were so loud that they shivered and wanted to run again, but their feet were out of control.
"Stop at this time, I can spare you all the time!" the officer shouted loudly.
The people were already scared and sweating. When they heard this, they were as if they were pardoned. They collapsed to the ground with trembling bodies, gasping heavily.
Seeing that the officer treats human life as grass and kills it whenever he says it, Yun Yi hates it very much, but he does not stop it. He would rather be a peaceful dog than a chaotic person. Now that the Han Dynasty is in decline, the world is in chaos, the people are the most suffering. This kind of thing is not uncommon. He can save one, but cannot save thousands of Han people.
In addition, these officers and soldiers were all soldiers under Lu Bu's hands, and the recruitment of corvee must have been instructed by Lu Bu. He wanted to see why Lu Bu forced corvee to recruit corvee as soon as he entered Xiapi.
After the officer and soldier shot and killed a man, no one dared to escape anymore. They could only accept this fact and leave with the officer and soldier.
Before leaving, the officers and soldiers asked them to bring their hoes and shovels from their homes. Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. What they feared most was that they were arrested and joined the army. They might not be able to come back when they went to the battlefield. But since the officers and soldiers asked them to bring digging tools, they must be working.
At this time, no one thought about the man who had just been shot through his chest and back...
The officers and soldiers took hundreds of civilians to clean up the corpses in the city. Most of the bodies were not good-looking. When the civilians heard that they were asked to clean up the corpses, they were so scared that their faces almost fell off. The officer shook his sword in front of them. They remembered the man who had just been shot and began to clean up the corpses in the city, and took the corpses out of the city in batches.
After Yun Yi followed the officers and soldiers and civil servants, all the bodies in the city were taken out of the city, including the bodies of the officers and soldiers at his doorstep. After leaving the city several miles south, he went to a spacious plain. The officers and soldiers ordered the civil servants to leave the bodies and dig a hole in the spot.
Yun Yi knew it in his mind that these officers and soldiers wanted to deal with the corpses in the city.
When the civilians were digging a hole, a group of officers and soldiers were not idle. They began to dismantle the armor on the dead officers and soldiers. One pair of armor was very time-consuming to make. Although the armor on these dead corpses were damaged, they went back to repair it. Two or three sets of armor could still make a new one.
"Damn it, I'm so careless. I should remove my armor first and then take the corpse out!" The leading officer spat a mouthful of thick phlegm. He was not idle at this time, and he and the soldiers took out the armor on the corpse.
Yun Yi looked at the busy officers and soldiers from afar and frowned slightly. He originally planned to wait for the sun to set and use these dead bodies to revive the soul, but now it seems that it is not possible and the plan needs to be changed.
After a while, Yun Yi realized that he was a little over-concerned. The soil here was very hard and difficult to dig. There were not many civilians, but there were not a thousand dead bodies. If you want to dig a large pit that could bury so many corpses, you would definitely not be able to get out in just two or three days.
After all his worries, Yun Yi returned to the city. Seeing that Hao Meng did not lead the troops back, he simply gave Yun Lan a divine teaching Yun Lan to bring back Fujiwara Kikuto and a group of servants and maids in batches.
It was carefully considered to let everyone come back. He was worried that his family would distract him, but after he moved them out, he felt that this move would make the enemy feel guilty. If the other party noticed that all the people in the yard were transferred out, he knew that he had too many concerns and might start from his family in the future. It would be better to let them all come back. Anyway, he set up a formation outside the yard, and officers and soldiers would not be able to enter the yard again. At worst, the formation would not be withdrawn in the future and the family would not go out.
Until the sun set, there was no sign of the officers and soldiers. The fat man came back at the agreed time.
"When did they come?" The fat man saw that the bodies outside were gone, and he knew that the officers and soldiers had arrived.
"Short long after you left the city, they are here to clean up the bodies." Yun Yi shook his head.
"Then will we do it as we planned before?" the fat man asked with his neck in his hands.
Yun Yi nodded, and the fat man breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
"Looking at your appearance, I'm so eager to fight to the death with others!" Yun Yi frowned and said.
"I'm just afraid that you will be soft-hearted," said the fat man. "They killed our people first and didn't give them a long memory. They might have forgotten even their surname. Besides, Lu Bu almost killed us at the beginning. If it weren't for the old bastard Chen Yangzi's quarrel, how could we have!"
"Let's go out of the city." Yun Yi waved to the fat man.
The fat man didn't know why Yun Yi suddenly left the city, but he didn't ask much. The two of them raised their energy to chase stars and the moon, and they rushed all the way. Soon, they arrived at the place where a group of civilians dug holes.
Although the officers and soldiers were completely destined to do so, they did not oppress the civilians at this time, letting them rest on the spot, and distribute rations and water.
"Just do it now?" asked the fat man.
"Wait a little longer." Yun Yi shook his head. The officials and the civilians and the civilians were busy and tired all day and should be about to go to bed.
As Yun Yi expected, after everyone had enough food and drink, the officers and soldiers took the civilians away from the digging place and went to the soil hill not far away to sleep.
"Do you do it." Yun Yi called the fat man, pinched his fingers with his left hand, and recited the mantra: "The Shangqing imperial edict is to search for dead souls. Wherever the imperial edict is sent, hundreds of ghosts listen to the truth, and Yuchen Daojun is as anxious as the law!" Almost as Yun Yi spoke, the fat man also pinched his fingers and recited the mantra.
There are many people who have died in vain in Xiapi City in the past two days. After the curse, a storm came out of the city, which made the two of them creepy. After the storm, the corpses piled up randomly on the plain stood up one after another, and hundreds of dead bodies were erected in a moment.
Each person has different zodiac signs. The summoned ghosts possessed themselves at will, and were rejected by dead bodies, which was very painful. In addition, these corpses were covered with sword marks, so the ghosts were also enduring physical pain. The dead people had no yang energy, and the ghosts endured the pain but could not speak out. The expression on their faces was ferocious and stiff. The pupils of the corpse had long been dissipated, but their eyes were turning, making their scalp numb.
"Slim-skinned monkey, why do I feel something is wrong..." The fat man's voice trembled slightly.
Yun Yi was also a little palpitations because he saw a dead body holding the intestines flowing from his chest and abdomen, moving forward tremblingly...
