Chapter 159 Corpse Soldiers
Su Yue knew that the silent secret guards still didn't want to die.
The other half of the secret guards were ready to fight, determined to avenge their master.
"Xuanyi, what do you think we should do?"
After a while, one of the secret guards asked in silence.
It turned out that the secret guard was called Xuan Yi. Su Yue knew that the next ones must be Xuan Er and Xuan San...
Xuanyi said, "Our duty is to protect our master. Now that he is gone, we should all follow him. But we still have one way to go, which is to seek refuge with outsiders. But everyone must be clear that those outsiders are our enemies.
I've made the stakes clear to everyone, and as for your choices, you know them for yourself."
"What about you?" someone asked for Xuanyi.
Xuan Yi said in a deep voice: "If you can live, then live."
After hearing Xuan Yi's words, everyone became even more silent.
"So what's your decision?"
Xuan Yi asked when he saw that they were silent.
"It is better to live a miserable life than to die. I want to live." A secret guard shouted.
"If the Lord dies, I die." There are also secret guards saying.
"I want to live..."
"If the Lord dies, I die..."
Suddenly, the sounds of life and death in the cave rose and fell.
Su Yue saw it all and felt hateful and lamentable for those evil slave owners who had brainwashed these people since childhood. When it came to life and death, the master was more important than his own life.
Of course, this is exactly the effect that the slave owners wanted, but Su Yue still couldn't understand it. Loyalty is indeed valuable, but now that the master is gone, can't they just adapt? It's not like they are betraying the master, but if the master is gone, what's the point of being loyal?
Even if they don't surrender to another master, they can still leave. No one is forcing them.
"If you don't want to die, follow me."
Xuan Yi didn't say anything more and waved at the secret guard who didn't want to die.
Immediately, almost half of the people followed him out, and Xuan Yi brought these fifty people to An Yi.
"You can take these people away." Xuanyi said.
"good."
An Yi didn't say anything more. He waved his hand and immediately a secret guard came over and took the fifty people to another cave and kept them under temporary custody. He would make further arrangements after things here were dealt with.
"What about the others?" An Yi asked Xuan Yi.
Xuan Yi pursed his lips: "They will end it themselves."
In fact, he hoped that the other half could survive, but they chose to end their lives, and he had no way to stop them.
He can't afford it if anything goes wrong in the future.
"What about you?" An Yi asked Xuan Yi again.
"I want to live."
If he wanted to die, he would have already bitten the poison in his teeth in Yunwu Village.
"Very good, you can deal with the people inside later, and we can handle the things here ourselves."
An Yi even patted his shoulder.
Xuan Yi bowed to An Yi and said, "Yes, I will take care of it right away."
Xuanyi's role changed quickly. An nodded and watched him enter the cave.
But in An Yi's eyes, such a person will never be reused in the future. In his opinion, when the master dies, the secret guards should follow the master.
In his eyes, turning to another master after the master dies is cowardly and unfit for responsibility. One day, they might betray their master in order to save their own lives. Therefore, he despises Xuan Yi and the others.
But since his master wanted them to stay, he did as he was told.
On the contrary, those secret guards who committed suicide were worthy of his admiration.
When Xuan Yi entered the cave again, all the remaining secret guards had fallen to the ground and died.
Xuan Yi did not shed tears. The secret guards did not allow him to shed tears, only blood.
He woodenly disposed of all the fifty or so corpses.
Each secret guard has a bottle of corpse-dissolving water. As long as the corpse-dissolving water is poured on the corpse, it will not take long for the corpse to turn into a pool of blood and finally disappear.
Lost and disappeared.
Outside, Su Yue saw everything. Those secret guards were poisoned to death by biting the poison sacs in their teeth. She sighed and withdrew her mental power.
Human life was so fragile at that moment.
Su Yue was also curious about how the holes were drilled in such hard teeth and how the poison sac was placed inside. This craftsmanship was extremely delicate. She would study it someday.
Afterwards, Su Yue used her mental power to check the caves here. She brought Murong Li to a cave. There was a large pool dug in the middle of the cave. The pool was full of smelly potions, and countless corpses were soaked in the potions.
There were corpses of both men and women, young and old, floating naked on the surface of the potion. Some were lying on their backs, some were lying on their stomachs. Each corpse was soaked and turned black, which looked very creepy. The timid ones would probably be scared to death on the spot.
Su Yue looked at it without much emotion. She had seen many more terrifying corpses in the apocalypse.
However, the moment he came in, Murong Li pulled her into his arms and prevented her from looking.
"Stupid!" Su Yue patted his chest. She could use her mental power to see.
Murong Li finally reacted, but he didn't care. This way he wouldn't have many opportunities to hug her, so he wouldn't let go.
"An Yi, get some zombies up here and let's see."
Murong Li immediately gave orders. They came here for these corpse soldiers, so of course they wanted to see how powerful these corpse soldiers were.
An nodded. He got the method of controlling the corpse soldiers from Xuan Yi. He just said a few strange notes to the corpse soldiers in the pool, and immediately ten soldiers suddenly flew up and stood in front of him in a row.
An Yi took a few steps back suddenly, which scared him.
This was the first time An Yi had seen such a strange thing. Even though he had seen countless corpses, he was still scared. The visual impact was too great.
He patted his chest and said, "Don't be afraid, it's just the first time. I won't be afraid after seeing it many times."
He looked back at Murong Li, who just gave him a look of contempt, frightened by the corpses.
The secret guards had all fought their way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood. He, An Yi, was the most powerful of them all, but he was actually scared. It was really embarrassing.
An Yi was despised by his master, and his neck stiffened. He drew his sword and slashed at the neck of a corpse soldier.
"brush."
The corpse soldier's neck was chopped off by the long sword.
As Xuanyi said, the corpse soldier's fatal weakness is at the neck.
An Yi didn't attack the second one and turned back to look at Murong Li.
"What do you think, Yue'er?"
Murong Li didn't know what to do.
"Cut off the body and joints and see." Su Yue thought for a while and said.
An nodded, swung his sword and started chopping. Unexpectedly, the joints and other parts of the body could not be cut, as if he was chopping on an iron plate.
Only the neck is very fragile and can be chopped off with just a little force.
Su Yue certainly didn't know why, nor did she know the composition of the water, so she couldn't make a judgment. She said, "How about this, I'll collect some of the water and take a few of the soldiers' bodies away. I'll make a decision after I figure it out. These corpses will soak here and don't move. Someone will watch over them."
