Resurrection of the Mystery: Starting from the Clone of the Stone-born Monkey
Chapter 36 Refugees
Wang Ge paused and frowned slightly.
Among the three warriors accompanying him, which one is not a warrior with keen senses and eyes and ears?
They immediately noticed the changes in their Highness, and immediately became vigilant, paying attention to all abnormalities around them.
"Master?" Yan Fei asked in a low voice.
Of course, Yan Fei didn't call Wang Ge His Highness when Weifu went abroad.
Wang Ge raised his hand to signal the three of them to pay attention, while he narrowed his eyes slightly and looked more carefully at the coal miner about ten meters away.
"Under the eyes of my Mingling, this person is just an ordinary villager except for the ridge stone in his arms. He should have just met by chance. And that ridge stone... has a filthy air, but the breath It is very weak, and it is difficult to have the power to kill."
Wang Ge judged in his heart that the strangers he met on the road would not pose a threat to him.
At the same time, he was curious about where this "filthy air" came from. If it weren't for the talent of "Spirits of Heaven and Earth" to recognize it, Wang Ge had never seen "filthy air" before.
Wang Ge raised his chin, pointed to the cook not far away, and said to Chen He, the guard beside him:
"Chen He, go over and talk to that coal miner, and say that you want to buy the edge stone in his arms. You can pay the price yourself. If he agrees, you can ask him again, whether he will have nightmares at night in the past few days. .”
Hearing this, Chen He was slightly taken aback, but this was His Royal Highness' request, of course he followed suit.
When Chen He walked over, the three of Wang Ge stood still and watched.
In just three minutes, Chen He came back with the prismatic stone.
Wang Ge stretched out his hand, and Chen He put the edge stone in his palm.
"Returning to your son, the civilian husband admits that he has been haunted by nightmares every night in recent days." Chen He replied.
He was also curious in his heart, he had heard that His Royal Highness the King of Yue had the ability to communicate with ghosts and gods, how could he see the details of the man now?
Martial arts masters like them can't do these things.
However, Wang Ge has no idea of an answer. At this moment, he observes the thing in his hand.
The edge stone is blue-gray, relatively narrow and long, the lower end is wrapped with hemp rope, and the upper end is polished and opened.
This is a simple stone knife, and the coal picker must be a poor man, so he doesn't have the use of iron knives.
Wang Ge held the stone knife in his hand and watched the details closely.
Yan Fei and other guards were confused when they saw the situation, and then saw Wang Ge remove the hemp rope from the handle, and then squeezed the handle hard.
"Please take a look, what do you think this is?"
Wang Ge spread out his palms, and the shattered stones slipped from his fingers. What remained in his palms was a grayish-white cylindrical thing.
The three warriors took a closer look, and the thumb-sized off-white cylinder gave them a sense of familiarity.
"Young master, can I touch it?" Yan Fei thought of something and asked uncertainly.
Wang Ge gestured casually.
Yan Fei pinched the cylinder with his fingertips, felt the texture, and then determined the essence of the object:
"It's a human phalanx."
Yan Fei frowned slightly, not because he was frightened by the human bones. As a warrior, Yan Fei had killed people before, but he was very gentle in front of Wang Ge.
He just felt a little weird, not only that, he also judged based on the texture of human bones:
"This person was a Bone Practitioner in his lifetime."
The bone training state is to temper the bones. Yan Fei can judge the quality of the bones based on these tiny details.
"That's true, it's quite weird." Wang Ge nodded slightly.
The filthy aura that his eyes of the Mingling discerned came from this human bone.
Wang Ge felt wrong. Even if this human bone came from a bone-training martial artist, the most dissipated energy from the bones after his death should be the essence, just like the bones of the flood in Xianghu Lake, not the filthy air.
Not to mention that the bones are still wrapped in stone, and something is wrong everywhere.
As far as he could see, the coal-picking man was still not far away, so Wang Ge said:
"Chen Heyi called that person over, and I want to ask where this person came from, and where did this stone come from."
Chen He clasped his fists, and immediately went to "invite" the civilian husband over.
The upper body of the coal bearer is a coarse cloth and short brown, which is stained with coal powder, and it is slightly dirty. When he sees Wang Ge and others dressed in bright clothes, he knows that he is not an ordinary person, so he stutters:
"Grass people"
Wang Ge frowned: "You are not from the local area."
There are different customs in three miles, and different sounds in five miles. The coal picker just opened his mouth, and Wang Ge noticed something was wrong, and judged:
"You are from Hengjiang Kingdom."
The Yue State is located in the south, with the sea in the east, the Qing State in the north, the barbarians in the south, and the vassal state of King Hengjiang in the west.
According to the golden horn and silver edge grass belly, the Yue State occupied a "silver edge".
The coal picker became even more flustered when Wang Ge revealed his identity, his knees were slightly bent, and he looked like he was about to kneel down.
Wang Ge frowned, and his tone eased slightly:
"What are you afraid of? I'm not an official. Can I still arrest you? I just want to ask where you are from, how long have you been in Liuyi County, and where did this stone come from? Just to get some news."
Maybe it was because Wang Ge was young and handsome, with a good appearance, white face and red lips, and his appearance made people approachable, but he lacked a little awe, so he told his identity in detail.
Then Wang Ge understood that about five months ago, a major earthquake occurred on the western edge of Hengjiang Kingdom, and the earth dragon turned over. The villagers in several villages were affected by the earthquake, their houses collapsed, people and animals were killed, and there was no harvest.
There are also local tyrants who take advantage of the fire to rob, annex land, and bully men and women.
The disaster-stricken people like the coal bearer had no choice but to leave their homes, cross mountains and ridges and cross national borders, and ran to Yue to make a living.
As for the stone, it was picked up by a coal picker passing a place called "Jianping Pass" on the way to flee the disaster. Seeing that the stone was of good quality, he polished it into a knife.
Wang Ge listened patiently, and after nodding slightly, he asked another question:
"For those who fled like you, did anyone else go to Liuyi County besides you? How is their livelihood?"
Wang Ge thought that it was the impact of foreign refugees on local security.
"Most of the people in my bay have been running away. There are a few old cousins who come here to do work and make a living." The coal picker rubbed his hands, looking very cramped.
Wang Ge looked the coal picker up and down, and took ten coins from his sleeve as a reward.
"Okay, you go about your business."
Holding the money, the coal picker was a little uneasy, as if he felt that the money was hot, and he didn't feel relieved until he saw Wang Ge and others leave.
People without a home are like grass without roots, in constant fear.
"Does any of you know what's special about Jianping Pass?" Wang Ge asked the left and right guards.
Yan Fei looked thoughtful and said vaguely:
"Jianping Pass is a pass for our country to enter and exit, and it has existed for a long time."
He has limited knowledge of it.
Finally, Yi Yang said:
"I remember the words, more than 30 years ago, when the Qian Dynasty was ruling the world, they fought a battle with the Kingdom of Gui at Jianping Pass. It is said that they killed 50,000 soldiers of the Kingdom of Gui. It has been rumored that it is a mass burial mound for the dead."
The last great unified dynasty was Dagan, and when Dagan unified the world, it also fought north and south. This "Gui Kingdom" is one of the countries that were eliminated on the road to the unification of Dagan.
"Battlefield site, mass grave?" Wang Ge frowned.
Suddenly, an inspiration flashed in my mind.
Wang Ge suddenly recalled an uninhabited village that was brutally slaughtered by King Wu's army when he returned to Yue Kingdom half a year ago!
