Chapter 338: Back to the Light
The gray "rocks" suddenly fell down one after another, and the mercenaries below were frightened and fled in all directions. The "rocks" fell halfway, and suddenly spread their huge wings and glided over the mercenary's head. One of them was caught and flew into the air. Another person was directly caught in the head, and half of his head was lifted up by sharp grabs.
"Da da da da!"
The dense gunfire sounded. After all, these Gurkha mercenaries were well-trained. Although they were caught off guard at the beginning, they immediately started to organize counterattacks after they woke up. The remaining people gathered back to back, opened the fire net and shot wildly into the air.
Although these huge gargoyles with sharp teeth and claws, they are also flesh and blood. Several gargoyles were hit one after another and fell to the ground and flapped their wings and struggling. However, two mercenaries were pounced by gargoyles, one was dismantled and the other was torn in half.
Seeing these gargoyles coming fiercely, two mercenaries protected Wang Yangming and rushed towards the palace, trying to hide inside.
As soon as I arrived at the broken wooden door, a strong wind suddenly blew from inside, and a gargoyle flew out like a cannonball, knocking a mercenary out more than ten meters, lying on the ground and spitting blood, seeing that he was not alive.
Another mercenary saw that the palace was not safe, so he protected Wang Yangming and retreated.
Wang Yangming and his mercenaries were divided into several parts, fighting fiercely with the gargoyles flying around in the sky, with gunfire and shouts in the underground palace, screaming and screaming of injured mercenaries, and the sarcasm of the gargoyles hit, mixed together, and a tragic image of hell on earth.
Jin Guoqiang, Zi Yang and others were watching this shocking scene in the cracks in the distance, and couldn't help but tremble all over.
After a while, the gunshots slowly stopped. The Gurkha mercenaries who had struggled to resist were finally killed, and more than a dozen gargoyles corpses fell on the ground.
Jin Guoqiang and Zi Yang looked at each other with lingering fear.
"I seem to see Wang Yangming hiding under the stone. I don't know if he is dead." Zi Yang said with a panic expression.
Jin Guoqiang looked at the battlefield in front of him and there were several seriously injured gargoyles crawling hard on the ground. They didn't know how many gargoyles survived outside, but if they went out at this time, they would inevitably take great risks.
"You guys are waiting here, I'll go and see." After Jin Guoqiang said that, he rushed out with a cat waist. Zi Yang glanced at Su Rui, and also bent and ran out. The two carefully avoided the gargoyle corpses on the ground and the remaining limbs of the Gurkha mercenaries, and quickly approached the huge rock where Wang Yangming was hiding.
When they arrived next to them, they were shocked. A gargoyle was lying on the side of the stone, and a dog-legged scimitar was shattered on the chest. Under their feet, the corpse of a Gurkha mercenary was stepped on. The mercenary's head was gone. It seemed that he died with the gargoyle.
Zi Yang and Jin Guoqiang struggled to move away the mercenary's body and saw a man covered in blood lying in the cracks behind him. It was the dying Wang Yangming.
"Brother! Hurry up, those things are moving again!" Zi Yang looked up at the sky and said.
Jin Guoqiang carried Wang Yangming on his shoulders, and the two quickly ran towards the crack of the rock. The gargoyle above sensed the abnormal movement below and rushed down again.
Zi Yang shot into the sky with his gun in his hands, trying to stop the gargoyle attack. Xiao Heihe in the crack of the rock also rushed out and raised his gun to shoot. Under the cover of everyone, Jin Guoqiang rushed into the crack of the rock with Wang Yangming on his back, and Zi Yang also ran in.
As soon as I stepped into the crack of the rock, I heard the sound of puffing outside. A gargoyle could not stop rushing and hit the stone directly. The remaining gargoyle fell down, stretched its head and opened its mouth to bite it in the crack of the rock.
Zi Yang held up his gun and fired a burst of fire outside, and he kept firing all the bullets before giving up.
Although they knew that these gargoyles were huge and could not get into this narrow slit, they were afraid that the night would be long and dreaming, so they quickly returned to the same road and arrived at a relatively spacious cave. Zi Yang shouted Jin Guoqiang: "Captain, wait a moment!"
"What's wrong?" Jin Guoqiang turned around and asked.
Zi Yang looked at the pool of blood on the ground - all of which were flowing from Wang Yangming, and this guy might be unable to do it anymore.
Jin Guoqiang carefully placed Wang Yangming on the ground, and saw a big mouth breaking in his stomach and his intestines exposed from it.
"Oh..." Wang Yangming lay on the ground, making a low voice in his throat, and looked up at everyone and murmured:
"Captain Jin Guoqiang...Su, Su Rui...Li Ziyang, and Huang Xiaohei."
Everyone looked at each other, and the old man he had never met could recognize them all.
"Haha, I, I've read your information..." Wang Yangming coughed and spit out a mouthful of blood.
"I, I can't do it anymore. Do you have anything to ask?" Wang Yangming looked at everyone with a smile. His teeth were stained with blood, making the smile on his face even more terrifying.
Jin Guoqiang didn't expect Wang Yangming to cooperate so much, so he asked directly: "Who sent you here?"
Wang Yangming smiled bitterly and coughed: "Please, can you ask something deeper? I don't have much time."
Zi Yang hesitated for a moment and asked softly: "Why are you kneeling down to worship that mural?"
Wang Yangming said excitedly: "Because, because that is my ancestor."
Zi Yang was stunned and looked at Su Rui: "Is the Taoist of Tianji your ancestor?"
Wang Yangming's eyes lit up: "You, do you know the Taoist of Heavenly Meaning?"
"Well, I know the Taoist of Tianji, the Qiexue Army, the Twelve Chapter Star Map, and the Iron Cavalry Army and Canglang..."
Wang Yangming looked at Zi Yang in confusion and murmured: "No wonder Zhang, Professor Zhang, he valued you so much. Look, it seems that you are indeed extraordinary."
"What is your relationship with Professor Zhang?" Zi Yang continued to ask.
"What's the relationship... I, I don't know... colleagues? superiors and subordinates? accomplices? lackeys... Hahaha, whatever you want, cough cough..."
Wang Yangming coughed violently. Seeing the pain on his face, Su Rui hurriedly took out a needle of morphine from his tactical backpack and gave it to him.
Morphine greatly relieved Wang Yangming's pain. He looked at Su Rui, nodded gratefully, and said with a breath: "Su, Su Rui, the eldest lady of the Su family, it is indeed better to meet him than to be famous. The person surnamed Zhang fell into your hands, which is also considered retribution. Now the Su family should... deserve..."
"Why did Professor Zhang kill the descendants of Tieqi and Canglang?" Su Rui asked.
"This, this is a long story..." Wang Yangming's breathing became weaker and weaker, and his eyes became blurred.
"When did you start? I, I remember, decades ago, Professor Zhang and I were just young men. Although we had full ambitions, we had nowhere to show. We were very down and even fell into being by cheating to fill our stomachs..."
"Later, Zhang and Zhang went to Mobei. After returning, he became a completely different person. He, he learned some powerful evil magic from somewhere, and actually mastered supernatural powers... He used this ability to make friends with the powerful... With power, he had money. With his sponsorship, I finally had the opportunity to do some super-age scientific research... Professor Zhang has also participated in some of my projects. What makes me strange is that he, a person without a foundation in natural science, has many incredible creativity..."
Wang Yangming's consciousness gradually became blurred, and his mouth became vague, but everyone could understand the general meaning.
It turns out that Professor Zhang has not always been so terrifying - at least not when he was young, so what kind of circumstances made him become a big devil who covers the sky with one hand today?
Decades ago, Mobei... Zi Yang murmured, and suddenly a flash of inspiration in his mind - the tomb of the Emperor Zhenwu!
When Professor Zhang and Kitano Longyin brothers and Mo Laosan went to Mobei to rob the tomb. However, Professor Zhang had murderous intentions and tried to harm everyone, but was almost killed by Kitano Longyin. Kitano Longyin hurriedly left with the seriously injured Kitano Tiger Xiao, leaving behind the unconscious Professor Zhang. After he woke up, did he find anything unusual in the tomb of the Zhenwu Emperor?
Zi Yang briefly explained this secret history to Su Rui and Jin Guoqiang. Another survivor who participated in this matter, Mo Laosan, once told A Chong about this experience. Before A Chong went to Mongolia, he passed on this history to Zi Yang.
Now it seems that this strange tomb of Zhenwu Emperor may still contain many unknown secrets, such as Kitano Longyin, Mo Laosan, Professor Zhang... Those who have entered this mysterious tomb have their fates changed.
The source of Professor Zhang's mysterious power may be from the tomb of Emperor Zhenwu.
At this time, Wang Yangming was already unconscious due to excessive blood loss. Su Rui looked at the wound on his stomach and shook his head. There was no help.
Jin Guoqiang slapped his thigh in anger. As soon as Wang Yangming died, all the secrets he had were buried underground with him. He originally wanted to use him to defeat Professor Zhang, but now it seems that all his efforts have been in vain!
Suddenly, Wang Yangming opened his eyes and said slowly: "I have something to ask you."
At this time, his consciousness was clear and his mouth was completely different from what he was like just now.
Su Rui understood that this was a rebirth, and Wang Yangming would die at any time.
Zi Yang asked, "What's the matter? Tell me."
Although Wang Yangming was their opponent, Zi Yang felt a little embarrassed when he saw the gray-haired old man dying.
"After I die, you blow up the tunnels above and bury me and my ancestors."
Zi Yang was stunned: "Your ancestor? Taoist Master Tianji is also buried here?"
Wang Yangming smiled bitterly: "After the underground palace is built, Taoist Master Tianji has not gone out. The Palace of Changsheng needs a soul sacrifice, so Taoist Master Tianji sealed himself inside."
Su Rui and Zi Yang couldn't help but look at each other, but they didn't expect that this powerful Taoist Tianji would sacrifice himself to guard the Palace of Changsheng.
Wang Yangming sighed and said, "It is a pity that I failed to enter the Palace of Changsheng to see the appearance of my ancestors. Whether it is not enough to avoid my descendants from despising my ancestors' true body."
Wang Yangming took a deep breath and said, "Remember, that passage that discharges the earth's air must be sealed. The monsters in the underground palace must not let them escape from the ground again."
Zi Yang nodded: "Okay, I will definitely do it."
A smile appeared on Wang Yangming's pale face: "Thank you."
After saying that, his expression froze, and his eyes were still staring straight into the sky.
Su Rui tried his breath and sighed. Wang Yangming was already dead. A generation of heroes died in a confused manner in a small space hundreds of meters underground.
"Let's go!"
Zi Yang, Su Rui and others walked through the cracks of the rocks, came to the underground cave, climbed through the gap, and climbed onto the inclined corridor.
Jin Guoqiang looked up at the secret passage that was straight up and down and said, "You go up first, I will set up explosives behind."
The Gurkha mercenaries had C4 explosives and timed blasters in their tactical backpack. Although there were not many, it was no problem to collapse this tunnel that was up and down several hundred meters deep. The key was to put it in the right position - this was not a difficult task for the special forces captain Jin Guoqiang.
Zi Yang, Su Rui and Xiao Hei crawled for a long time and finally entered Qin Xianghe's "ancestral hall memorial room". After two minutes, Jin Guoqiang also climbed up.
The four of them hurried out of the secret room. Lao Wang, who was staring at the prisoner in the room, saw everyone and cursed, "Why did you come up? I'm so hungry that I'm waiting. What are you doing below? I'm procrastinating for so long!"
"Go away! It's going to explode in 10 minutes!" Jin Guoqiang looked at his watch and said.
Chapter completed!
