Nightmare Attack

Chapter 1399 Dead Wife
"It seems right, they are all drowned ghosts..."

Yao Shunyu recalled the lotus pond he saw last night. The luxuriant lotus flowers were all deceptions, but they were actually grimaces with disheveled hair.

"So General Guo and the others were not killed by Zhennan Hou in a frontal battle with weapons, but all died of drowning." Li Bai breathed out quickly, "Yes...it was that ship!"

"That's right." Another image appeared in Jiang Cheng's mind, "Do you still remember what Zhu Jie Tang Qisheng said? They saw countless figures behind the door on that ship, and the figures wailed for help, desperately trying to open the door in front of them , and that ship...is sinking."

A guess gradually took shape in Jiang Cheng's mind: Zhennan Hou used some method to trap General Guo and the others in the cabin, and then took advantage of the darkness to scuttle the big ship and send everyone into the cabin. The cold bottom of the lake.

But in the next second, this guess was overturned, because there was one thing that didn't make sense, these people were all disciples who could break armor with bare hands, how could a mere door stop them?
This is not a place to talk. Seeing that the goal has been achieved, the four of them intend to evacuate, but they must clean up the mess here before leaving.

They started to bury the previous coffin first, and then they returned to General Guo's tomb, but before they could do anything, Jiang Cheng suddenly stopped everyone.

Because of the excavation of the coffin, there were some excavated soil nearby, but at this moment Jiang Cheng was staring at a spot on the soil, the fat man followed Jiang Cheng's line of sight, and the soil was covered with messy shoe prints.

But in the next second, the fat man's face changed, because among the messy shoe prints, there were some strange marks, these marks were only one-third the size of ordinary people's shoe prints, it looked... looked like a Left by someone who walks on tiptoe.

This abnormal moment made everyone's hearts sink to the bottom of the valley. The two cemeteries were not far away. Within such a short distance, there was something secretly lurking behind them. When thinking of that scene, the fat man couldn't help but shudder.

The weird footprints stretched crookedly into the wild grass.

A few people in Jiangcheng pulled up the tall grass and followed it. After walking a short distance, another tombstone appeared in front of them. The size of the tombstone was no less than that of General Guo.

And after pulling out the tombstone this time, the vague name on it surprised Jiang Cheng and the others even more. The tomb of the dead wife... This is actually the tomb of Mrs. Zhennanhou!

Although it was known early in the morning that this place was a private house, no one expected that the Marquis of Zhennan would actually bury his wife and these former soldiers together.

The coffin was dug out, and after the coffin was opened, there were no corpses or wooden figures inside. There was only a bright red wedding dress lying quietly at the bottom of the coffin, and a pair of very delicate embroidered shoes were placed at the end of the coffin.

What made everyone's scalps tingle was that the pair of embroidered shoes were still covered with fresh dirt.

Li Bai summoned up his courage and took out a blood-stained cloth bag from the coffin. The cloth bag was placed on the cuff of the wedding dress. In the coffin of Zhennan Hou's deceased wife, there was also a bag of orders for souls.

Li Bai spread out his hand and poured out the command arrows. Just like before, there were only 17 arrows in it, and the missing one was the sinking water command.

Now the situation is gradually becoming clear, but the doubts brought to everyone have not been alleviated in the slightest. From the layout here, it can be seen that Zhennanhou's wife also died in the huge shipwreck, that night on Chunshen Lake, but why did she will die?And also died with these former soldiers?
Shouldn't they be mortal enemies?

The harvest this time is not small, but as soon as everyone had the feeling of pushing away the clouds and mist, the next second, they were involved in another vortex, and countless fragmentary clues were pieced together in their minds. It is difficult to keep a calm mind, but it is very beneficial to Jiangcheng. He is used to thinking under high pressure. After just a dozen seconds, Jiangcheng looked at Yao, Shunyu, "You read a lot of books in the bookstore. There is no biographical introduction of Nanhou, right?"

"No, some of them are only some superficial compliments, and the record is only defeating the former General Guo, and capturing Luo'an City for the dynasty." Yao Shunyu expressed his opinion after recalling: "He seems to have appeared out of thin air. people, the first half of their lives are blank."

"Because he was a general from the former dynasty!" Jiang Cheng's face gradually darkened, "With such a heavy status, he naturally dare not show his merits in a big way, and I think he is very familiar with General Guo, and he is even a general under General Guo's command. When the dynasty besieged Luo'an city for a long time and could not attack it, it was he who used tricks to trap and kill General Guo and others, so that he was able to open the door and sacrifice the city, and it was with the lives of these people that he bought the wealth and glory for the rest of his life."

The fat man was stunned for a moment, as if he was listening to a book from heaven, but after careful consideration, what the doctor said was indeed reasonable, otherwise, how could the invincible feat of seizing the city be mentioned hastily in the book, and beheaded on the battlefield? Seizing the flag is a destiny for everyone, so there is no need to curse the soldiers of the previous dynasty with such a sinister method that harms Yin and morality.

No wonder those drowned ghosts were so resentful, even at the bottom of Chunshen Lake dozens of miles away, they would not let the Marquis of Zhennan go, the backstabs from siblings were the most difficult to let go of.

At this moment, the dark cloud above the head has gradually floated over everyone's heads, and it is meaningless to spend any more. After simply burying Zhennanhou's dead wife, the group left quickly.

Before leaving, the fat man grabbed a few handfuls of soil and put it in his pocket, saying that he was prepared, that if he encountered something evil at night, he might survive by swallowing a mouthful of grave soil.

The few people walked very carefully, lest they encounter ghosts hitting the wall and get lost in this barren grassland, but fortunately, none of this happened. The pair of clay embroidered shoes just now left a psychological shadow on them.

Standing by the fence, everyone felt a chill behind them at the same time, and looked behind them subconsciously. At this moment, the dark cloud had completely covered the backyard, and a gust of wind whizzed by, instantly pushing down the wild grass half a person's height, tens of hundreds The dilapidated tombstones were exposed at the same time, like cold and crooked corpses standing in the wild grass, the scene was extremely strange.

The four of them left here almost as if they were running away. They didn't dare to go through the door, and they couldn't go through the door. They climbed over the wall to get out. Even after jumping over, the fat man's heart was still pounding.

Not long after he left, before everyone could catch their breath, Jiang Cheng's cell phone rang suddenly. When he picked it up, he saw that it was Mr. Zhang calling.

"Where are you? Why didn't you reply to the message and the phone was turned off?"

Mr. Zhang's tone gave Jiang Cheng a bad feeling.
