Episode 10 Chapter 477

Chapter 477

"As soon as the ghosts say it, you can chat in private, but don't burn paper and worship gods in the palace, disturbing people's hearts!" Tang Yin waved to several female guards and motioned for them to disperse.

The Wind King has spoken, and no matter how scared the female guards are, they don't dare to continue burning paper.

Several people bowed their hands to Tang Yin and were about to leave. Suddenly one of them opened his eyes wide and looked behind Tang Yin. His face was pale and his lips were trembling. He stammered: "Ghost... Your Majesty... there is a ghost!"

When a normal person sees the horrified look on the female guard's face, their first reaction would be to look back and see what happened behind them, but Tang Yin was suspicious by nature and stood there without even moving or looking back. A glance always landed on the face of the female guard.

Tang Yin was as stable as Mount Tai, but Asan and Asi did not have such determination. The two of them both turned around and looked behind them, and they both subconsciously whispered: "Oh?"

After hearing their exclamations, Tang Yin slowly turned around, squinted his eyes, and looked up. He saw behind him, twenty or thirty meters away, several gloomy, cold clouds floating in the air. Blue light, blue light is not bunched together, but scattered, floating in the air, swaying.

"It's a will-o'-the-wisp!" Ah San and Ah Si shouted in unison. While speaking, the two of them stood in front of Tang Yin to protect him.

The female guards were so frightened that they broke out in cold sweats. They couldn't help but step back without caring about Tang Yin.

In the eyes of San and Si and the female guards, the erratic and weird blue fire was a will-o'-the-wisp, but Tang Yin knew that it was just a phosphorus fire and had nothing to do with ghosts.

However, things like phosphorus fire should not appear in the palace, but in the cemetery.

He impatiently pushed Asan and Asi away from him, and muttered: "What are you two doing in front of me? If it's really a ghost, how can you two stop it?" As he spoke, he Walk towards those groups of 'will-o'-wisps' without fear.

"Your Majesty, be careful!" Ah San and Ah Si were afraid that Tang Yin would be in danger if he went over, so they grabbed his arm.

"That's definitely not a ghost. What are you two afraid of?!" Tang Yin threw Asan and Asi away angrily and continued to walk forward.

Soon, Tang Yin walked up to the will-o'-the-wisp. He waved his sleeves to disperse the phosphorus fire in the air. Then he looked around for a long time, then lowered his head, rubbing his chin in deep thought.

This is a large open space with a lot of weeds growing on the ground. Relatively speaking, the weeds here are much denser than elsewhere. Of course, there is nothing strange about this. After all, this is a claustrophobic place in the palace, so it is normal that few people come to tidy it up.

Tang Yin looked around for a while, then kicked the ground hard under his feet, then turned around and shouted: "Ah San Ah Si!"

"The end...the end will be here!" Asan and Asi swallowed their saliva and walked forward quickly, but a slight tremor could be heard in the voices of the two of them talking.

Tang Yin rolled his eyes at them and said, "Call more people over, bring tools, and dig this place out for me!"

Ah San and Ah Si were stunned, and asked in a low voice: "What does your Majesty mean... is there something fishy underground here?"

"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded, but he was not very sure. He said, "If there is anything fishy, ​​we will find out if we dig out it. Go quickly!"

"Yes!" Ah San agreed and ran back quickly.

At this time, the female guards had calmed down a lot. The Feng King walked up to the will-o'-wisp without thinking about anything. Presumably even if there was a ghost, it was not an evil ghost. In other words, even if it was an evil ghost, it would be affected by the Feng King's aura. Calmed down.

Several female guards came forward cautiously, looked at Tang Yin timidly, and asked: "His Royal Highness Feng Wang, what on earth is going on here?"

Tang Yin smiled calmly and said, "We'll find out later what's going on."

Not long after Asan left, he found hundreds of Fengjun guards. The two leaders were none other than the two new commanders of the guard camp, Su Wan and Zeng Die.

Both of them are female generals, promoted through military conscription orders. Since the guard battalion was responsible for protecting Tang Yin's safety and was permanently stationed in the palace, and there were too many female relatives in the palace, it would be more convenient to use a female general as the leader of the guard camp.

After Su Wan and Zeng Die saw Tang Yin, they both saluted and asked, "I wonder what your Majesty's orders are?"

Tang Yin signaled the two of them to get up, pointed at his feet, and said, "Let the brothers dig up everything here to see what is buried underground." In fact, Tang Yin could guess a rough idea without even looking.

Su Wan and Zeng Die did not dare to ask further, and acted on Tang Yin's order. They ordered the guards to dig up all the lawns in this area.

The guards were all confused and didn't understand why the king suddenly wanted to dig up this place. Could it be that there are treasures from the Mo Kingdom buried here?

Military orders are like mountains. The king gave orders, and they had no choice but to follow them. The guards took off their armor one after another, rolled up their arms and sleeves one by one, picked up shovels and pickaxes, and began to dig the ground. Hundreds of guards started working together, and the speed was not slow. It didn't take long before they dug a large hole more than one meter deep in the ground. However, they have dug to a depth of more than one meter and found nothing underneath, not to mention treasures, not even a piece of broken copper or tiles. The guards grinned secretly, wiping sweat while looking at their superiors, Su Wan and Zeng Die.

Su Wan and Zeng Die were both considerate of the hard work of the brothers below. They looked at each other, walked up to Tang Yin, and whispered: "Your Majesty, we have dug almost half a foot deep, do you want to continue digging? "

"Dig! Of course we have to keep digging!" Tang Yin said without even looking at it.

Su and Zeng had no choice but to order their guards to continue digging.

When they were about to dig two meters, the guards in the pit suddenly screamed, and then more than a dozen people climbed out of the pit in a panic, knelt on the ground outside the pit, and vomited.

The faces of the people standing outside the pit changed at the same time. They didn't know what happened inside, and they hurried forward and asked, "What's going on?"

A guard in the pit stammered, "Reply... Report to the general, there are... There are corpses, there are many... Many corpses..."

"Ah?" Su Wan and Zeng Die were shocked. They squatted at the mouth of the pit and poked the torches in their hands into the pit at the same time. Looking closely, it was true. Through the firelight, they could vaguely see the rotten black remains at the bottom of the pit.

It was hard to tell exactly how many there were, but judging from the number of bodies dug out, there seemed to be quite a few. There were seven or eight black skulls alone.

How could there be so many bodies buried in the important area of ​​the palace? Who did it? Su Wan and Zeng Die stood up in a hurry and looked at each other. The latter took out a handkerchief, tied it around her face, and bravely jumped into the pit to check what was going on. Su Wan went to report to Tang Yin.

When Tang Yin heard that a large number of bones had been dug out of the pit, he was not surprised at all. Phosphorus fire could not appear for no reason. Usually, it would only decompose and burn in the air when human or animal bodies rotted. He wondered what the identities of these people buried under the palace were. He raised his head to Su Wan and said, "Keep digging! Dig out all the remains and find out their identities and how they died."

"Yes! King!" Su Wan responded with a stiff upper lip, then walked back to the pit and directed the guards to continue digging.

They made such a big noise here that soon, other people in the palace also heard about it and rushed over, including Lingshuang who had just fallen asleep.

Lingshuang, surrounded by a group of maids, walked to Tang Yin with sleepy eyes and asked incoherently: "Brother Wang, why are you not sleeping late at night and making trouble here..."

Before she finished her question, she saw the guards outside the pit pulling the rope together. When the rope was pulled, she looked at the other end and saw a rotten and blurred corpse tied up.

Lingshuang had never seen this in her life. She was so scared that her face turned pale. She subconsciously grabbed Tang Yin's arm. Her two big and round eyes opened even bigger and rounder at this time. There was no sleep on her face.

Tang Yin looked at her helplessly. He didn't intend to let Lingshuang see these things, but she came to join in the fun.

He raised his hand, stroked Lingshuang's eyes, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I just accidentally found some dead bodies buried in the palace."

How could Lingshuang not be afraid? There were dead bodies buried in the ground where she ate and slept. It was chilling to think about it. She let Tang Yin's big hand cover her eyes and asked in a trembling voice: "This... was this done by my brother?"

Her first reaction was that Tang Yin had killed all the orphans of Shao Fang and buried them in the palace. Hearing this, Tang Yin narrowed his eyes and asked back: "Am I so unbearable in my sister's heart?"

Lingshuang regretted what she said just now, and realized that she had spoken out of turn. It was only a few days since they occupied the Mo Palace. In such a short time, it was impossible for people to rot so badly. Besides, if it was really Tang Yin who did it, how could he dig up the bodies again with such fanfare?

"I'm sorry, brother, it's my sister who is confused." Lingshuang changed the subject and asked, "Who are they?"

Tang Yin didn't pay much attention to Lingshuang's unreasonable accusation just now. He smiled and shook his head, saying, "I also want to find out who they are."

As time passed, the sky gradually turned pale. Looking outside the pit, there were more than 200 corpses dug out, which were laid on the ground in several rows, some big and some small, some male and some female.

There is no coroner in the Feng army now, so they can only find the coroner of Mo in Zhenjiang City to perform the autopsy. Because the bodies have been buried for too long, they have been severely rotten, and the clothes are difficult to identify. There are no identification marks on the bodies. Even the coroner can't find out their identities. They can only confirm that some died of trauma, some were poisoned, and some were buried alive. Among the bodies, there are both elderly people and children under ten years old. Judging from the degree of decay, they should have died at least a year ago.
