A Cai's work: The Emperor's Phoenix: The Godly Doctor and the Abandoned Concubine ... Volume 1 1939 Ghost General, Action at Dawn

The pale and skinny face, the dull eyes, and the whole body exuded death. For a moment, the word "zombie" flashed through Feng Qingchen's mind, but he immediately rejected the idea.

However, Feng Qingchen was certain that these living dead in front of him, even if they were not zombies, were created with poison. In any case, these living dead were not ghosts.

The ghost corpses they encountered in the Ghost Forest were probably created using special poisons combined with the Ghost Forest's formations. She had seen Feng Liyou use the ghost formation against her, but it was not as powerful as the Ghost Forest's.

Feng Qingchen told everyone his guess, and everyone understood it after a little thought, and their fear of these living dead and ghost corpses was reduced.

"Since it's not a ghost, we don't have to wait until dawn to take action." Xuan Shaoqi glanced at the Ninth Uncle, who thought for a moment and motioned for Xuan Shaoqi to continue.

Xuan Shaoqi took a look at the living dead who were afraid to approach them because of the torches and lights, and said, "Although these living dead are not ghosts, they must have been made with poisonous drugs. They hate light and are afraid of fire. We can try to attack them with fire."

"Light a circle of fire first." The Ninth Prince agreed without thinking, but before taking action, he asked Xuelang, Feng Qingchen and the three most seriously injured people to stand in the middle. With them as the center, he lit a circle of fire that could accommodate twenty to thirty people. When the flames lit up, the living dead quickly retreated several steps in a frighteningly orderly manner.

"These zombies seem to be soldiers?" It was too dark for Feng Qingchen to see clearly. Moreover, the clothes of these zombies were tattered and dirty. It seemed that they had not touched water for hundreds of years. The clothes were so dirty that the original color could not be seen. Otherwise, Feng Qingchen would have discovered them long ago.

"Ghost soldiers." The Ninth Prince paused for a moment, his cold face showing a rare trace of worry: "Go forward, there should be a ghost general."

It is said that the ghost general was a great general when he was alive. After his death, he was so violent that his soul remained in the human world.

Ghost generals have very high combat effectiveness and can even command ghost soldiers.

"These ghost soldiers are not the living dead, but the tomb-guarding army of the previous dynasty." The Ninth Prince's face was solemn, and everyone's heart tightened. Seeing this, Feng Qingchen pretended to be relaxed and said, "Does this mean that we have already reached the imperial mausoleum, and the cemetery is just ahead?"

"Yes." The Ninth Prince's expression eased a little: "Since they are ghost soldiers, there is no need to fight them anymore. Tomorrow, we will find the ghost general."

As long as we find the ghost general and capture him, these ghost soldiers will be leaderless and will naturally retreat without a fight.

"It's just right. I can have a good rest tonight." Xuan Shaoqi lifted his clothes and sat directly on the ground.

The Ninth Prince knew that Xuan Shaoqi wanted to keep watch in the second half of the night. Keeping watch in the second half of the night was more tiring, and knowing Xuan Shaoqi's good intentions, the Ninth Prince naturally would not refuse, and walked to the fire circle with his sword.

"Rest first." These words were said to the eighteen riders.

The Ninth Prince and Xuan Shaoqi would take turns to keep watch to ensure that the circle of fire around them remained intact. As long as the fire remained intact, the ghost soldiers would not dare to move forward.

The two sides confronted each other like this. Feng Qingchen took out enough water and burnable alcohol, then fell asleep leaning against the snow wolf.

For some reason, she had been particularly tired and sleepy recently. As soon as the Ninth Prince and Xuan Shaoqi said they would not leave, Feng Qingchen leaned against the Snow Wolf and fell asleep...

The Ninth Prince took a look and then looked away. After running around all day, not only Feng Qingchen, but they were also tired. It was a good thing that Feng Qingchen could fall asleep at this time.

Sparks crackled as the ghost soldiers quietly stood outside the fire circle without making any attacking moves. They looked very harmless, but even so, the Ninth Prince did not dare to let his guard down.

Because once the fire is extinguished, these ghost soldiers will rush up immediately and tear them to pieces.

The two sides fought like this until the sun came out the next day...

I thought that when the sun came out, these ghost soldiers would retreat, but I didn't expect that although these ghost soldiers didn't like the sun and were afraid of fire, they could still move under the sun.

"It's not a ghost after all." Xuan Shaoqi knew that they couldn't take shortcuts and could only fight hard.

"We will cover you, and you go find the ghost general." Xuan Shaoqi said to the Ninth Uncle.

There are not hundreds of thousands of ghost soldiers guarding the mausoleum, but at least tens of thousands. Xuan Shaoqi doesn't think that they can keep fighting. The best way is to find the ghost general and let him order the ghost soldiers to retreat.

"Yes." The Ninth Prince nodded, and the long soft sword in his hand suddenly became straight and sharp.

There was no need to say more to the 18 riders. Except for the three who were the most seriously injured, the others rushed out of the fire circle with their swords, slashing at the ghost soldiers outside...

Ghost soldiers are not phantoms or ghosts, but real living dead. With every cut from the sword, you can hear the sound of bones breaking, but they do not feel pain and will not bleed. Even if their limbs are broken, they can continue to fight, just like unconscious wooden men.

"Cut off the head." The Ninth Prince found the trick and cut off the opponent's head with one sword. He found that without the head, these ghost soldiers could no longer move.

The eighteen riders saw this and immediately found their rhythm. They killed them one by one, just like peeling a carrot. The number of ghost soldiers around them quickly decreased...

Feng Qingchen originally wanted to help, but seeing that they were doing it with ease, he decided not to waste bullets. He stood in the middle with Xuelang, trying not to cause trouble for everyone.

The ghost soldiers moved slowly, but thanks to the efforts of the Ninth Prince and others, they quickly fought their way out.

"Follow me." The Ninth Prince rushed to the front. When Feng Qingchen and Xuelang reached the center, the Ninth Prince took a deep breath, jumped into the air, stepped on the ghost soldiers' heads, and moved forward.

The Ninth Prince was going to look for the whereabouts of the Ghost General. Feng Qingchen had no intention of following him, but for some reason, her heartbeat suddenly quickened, and the Feng Li King token placed close to her seemed to become hot in an instant. Feng Qingchen frowned slightly, and after confirming that it was not her illusion, Feng Qingchen grabbed the Eighteen Riders' sword without hesitation and said to Snow Wolf, "Follow him."

She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt that Fengli Wang Ling seemed to be connected with the ghost general. The ghost general was not far away, and these ghost soldiers were secretly commanded by him to attack them.

"Awoo..." The snow wolf let out a dissatisfied cry. Seeing Feng Qingchen swinging his sword at the ghost soldiers, it had no choice but to resign itself to its fate and swing its claws to clear the way for Feng Qingchen.

"Be careful." Xuan Shaoqi took a look and found that Feng Qingchen was so strong that he didn't need his help at all, so he stopped interfering and concentrated on dealing with the ghost soldiers in front of him.

"I'll go in and take a look." Feng Qingchen said, and walked forward.

Xuan Shaoqi knew that Feng Qingchen was not a person who liked to cause trouble, nor was she a person who was confused. She must have her reasons for going in at this time. Not only did Xuan Shaoqi not try to persuade or stop her, he also cleared the way for Feng Qingchen.

Feng Qingchen walked forward fearlessly among the ghost soldiers. Anyone who blocked his way was slashed away with a single blow, showing no mercy.

In a sense, these ghost generals are no longer living beings, but dead beings.

Feng Qingchen didn't notice that the ghost generals who were blocking her way hesitated for two to three seconds when she appeared, and the other ghost generals didn't dare to attack her at all...
