Chapter 51: Heize's Corpse (Seeking Follow-up Reads)

~10 min read 1,851 words

"Look, Heize is still strong; even the Wolf Guard Commander is afraid of him!"

"I highly doubt Heize really wiped out the Wolf Guard all by himself, single-handedly."

"I agree with the above, but I have one reservation: Heize probably didn't bring a horse."

"The person above is exaggerating too much; Heize isn't that mythologized."

"Why don't you say that Heize roared and collapsed the mountain, burying the Wolf Guard directly?"

"I actually think that's possible!"

The barrage in the livestream, some seek logic, while others just talk nonsense, watching the spectacle without fearing the chaos.

Lin Chao watched the barrage, his gaze calm.

Indeed, he was the one who roared and collapsed the mountain.

The talent of Mountain Pulling gave him Natural Divine Strength, and he could also roar to collapse mountain ranges.

Unfortunately, it could only be used once.

"I wonder when we will be able to see Heize's remains." Lin Chao was very expectant.

In the Dahuang Mountain Range.

The stone wall was slowly wiped clean, and more and more characters fell into the sight of the crowd.

The staff of the expert group continued their translation.

"In this world, why would there be a person like Heize?"

"Why, no matter how many blades and swords struck his body, he could not die!"

"I really want to live and return to the grasslands."

At this moment, new characters were translated.

The crowd was inexplicably shocked.

"What does this mean? Heize was impervious to blades and spears?"

"Has this person's mind gone wrong?"

Listening to the staff's translation, everyone voiced the doubts in their hearts.

The information just translated wasn't much, but it sounded very absurd.

It seemed that Heize was impervious to blades and spears.

The Wolf Guard spent a great deal of effort, yet they could not Slay Heize.

After these characters were translated, even the translation staff were a bit confused.

They looked over it again, pondered for a while, and only then confirmed that their translation was correct.

"I suppose... it should be an exaggeration," Liu Chengchao said to smooth things over. "This Wolf Guard, having stayed here for so long, it is very possible that his mind has developed problems."

The experts present all agreed.

After all, humans are carbon-based lifeforms.

Regarding the physical defense strength of such carbon-based lifeforms, it can be said to be extremely pathetic.

When blades and swords strike the body, how could there be any possibility of not getting injured?

"Right, I guess Heize was not only that kind of commanding general, but also a general with powerful martial prowess.

He should have also directly participated in this battle and clashed head-on with Su'er Zhen.

Su'er Zhen gathered the Wolf Guard and still couldn't Slay Heize, which is why this feeling arose."

Others all accepted this idea.

Of course, it was full of loopholes.

The matters of the Dahuang Mountain Range contained many suspicious points, and many things could not withstand scrutiny.

For example, the remains that had lasted for a thousand years, for example, why no remains possessing the bloodline of the Daxia Clan had been discovered yet.

And, what Heize relied on to wipe out the Wolf Guard.

Regarding the first two points, Liu Chengchao vaguely sensed something, but did not delve too deeply.

Because, currently in the Dahuang Mountain Range, there was not only their group of experts, but another group had also arrived.

Their group was the one on the surface, appearing in the livestream and exposed to the public eye.

There was another group researching other things.

Liu Chengchao knew that their mission was mainly to investigate how Heize managed to Slay the Wolf Guard.

Matters involving bizarre questions were not for them to research.

"How is it going?" Liu Chengchao asked.

In the few hours since they entered, they had been searching for stone walls, taking photos, and translating.

"Currently, we have found a total of 172 stone walls recorded with characters and patterns.

Among them, 93 can no longer be identified and need to be restored before speculation can be made; this will likely take some time.

Among them, there are still thirty stone walls whose characters have not been translated, and they have already been photographed and saved.

These characters... are somewhat strange," a member of the expert group spoke up.

This was their harvest over the past few hours.

Now, all the stone walls had been photographed.

Among them, the characters on thirty stone walls, in his view, were very bizarre, even absurd.

"What's wrong? Tell me," Liu Chengchao asked.

"What is so bizarre?" Wang Jiao also became interested.

As a media person, the more bizarre things were, the more interested she was, and the more she liked them.

After all, this represented traffic.

The member of the expert group said slowly, "Then I will begin translating."

"Go ahead," Liu Chengchao replied.

"We finally joined forces to Slay that demon, Heize!

No, that's not right; we didn't kill him, he died of exhaustion.

That's right, he died of exhaustion.

Even after fighting for so long, there was not a single wound on his body.

Looking at his corpse, I originally wanted to strike him with my Spear, but seeing his figure, I still didn't dare.

I fear that for the rest of my life, I will never dare to pick up a blade again."

Upon hearing this news, the crowd felt shocked, and their emotions were a complex mix.

"Heize, he died in the end."

"Died of exhaustion?" Some were puzzled.

"No wounds on his body, how is that possible?"

"It was said earlier that Heize was impervious to blades and Spears; could it be true? Did he practice some kind of Hard Qigong?"

"That shouldn't be it. In the traditional martial arts circles, Hard Qigong does exist, but it is far from reaching this level."

"I suspect Heize was wearing some kind of protective gear like a Golden Silk Soft Armor," Liu Chengchao offered his opinion.

Only this could explain it.

Of course, he had other guesses in his heart that he did not voice.

"It's possible. Wang Lao, please continue translating."

Everyone immediately looked over.

They wanted to know what exactly was recorded on the remaining stone wall.

"We didn't touch Heize's corpse, or rather, we didn't dare to look at his corpse.

Tens of thousands of Wolf Guard died because of him; he had already broken our spirits.

At that moment, we were just fleeing, wanting only to leave this place.

Those of us who were alive then began to dig a cave, wanting to escape.

After digging for more than a year, we fell into despair.

We would never be able to escape in this lifetime.

We gave up; let's just wait for death like this.

But... what did I see..."

"Why? Why?

A whole year has passed, and Heize's corpse has not rotted at all.

He is still the same as before, just leaning there on the ground.

Could it be... that he is still alive?"

"Heize is dead, truly dead."

Hearing this news, the crowd felt a sudden shock in their hearts.

"It is indeed bizarre. According to his meaning, Heize's corpse had not rotted at all after a year.

This is very unscientific."

"An ordinary corpse would rot in ten days or so, and decay within a month or two.

That Heize's corpse would not decay is truly too bizarre.

Is it true, or did this Su'er Zhen make it up?"

The people present had many thoughts.

And Liu Chengchao suddenly remembered the Wolf Tribe skeletons that had not decayed for a thousand years.

Could Heize's body not decaying be related to these?

"If Heize's corpse really didn't rot for some special reason, does that mean we might be able to see Heize's corpse?

Or even see what he looked like?" A look of excitement appeared on Wang Jiao's face.

Nowadays, matters concerning the Dahuang Mountain Range are very popular, and it has even caused the view count of the movie "Hero" to increase quite a bit.

Among these, the two things people care about most are how Heize defeated the Wolf Guard, and what kind of person Heize was.

If they could see Heize's true appearance, it would definitely be a major event for them.

Of course, this possibility is very small.

"Then, where is Heize's corpse?" Liu Chengchao grasped the key point.

In fact, he had also been searching for the whereabouts of Heize's corpse all along.

After all, this could be considered a task arranged for him by Miss Jia.

Previously, he had never found it.

Now, he had finally found the whereabouts of Heize's corpse in these written records.

That member of the expert group immediately continued the analysis.

"We decided to take Heize back to the cave and bury him in a place of extreme Yin and cold, so that he would have no peace even after death."

Beside them, an expert studying the Wolf Tribe spoke up to provide some popular science: "The Wolf Tribe favors Yang; when they bury their dead, they generally look for places rich in Yang energy.

In the legends of the Wolf Tribe, such a place will nourish the corpse, allowing one to enjoy warmth even after death.

It is precisely because of this that some of the Wolf Tribe will bury their enemies in places with heavy Yin energy.

In their culture, a place with heavy Yin energy will ensure that one has no peace after death, suffering torture and pain.

History records that a Wolf King was bullied by the High Priest when he was young, and after this Wolf King gained power, he had the High Priest Slayed and his corpse thrown into a cold spring."

"These Wolf Guard are truly vicious; even though Heize is dead, they won't let him rest in peace." Wang Jiao is very emotional, and at this moment, she is somewhat indignant.

"Our Daxia Clan values feng shui in burials; in fact, we prefer to bury people in places of extreme Water."

"The Wolf Guard's actions are actually quite in line with our Daxia Clan's burial customs," the Wolf Tribe research expert said from the side.

Wang Jiao felt a little better.

The crowd turned their gazes back to the person responsible for translation, asking him to continue translating.

"We buried Heize's corpse and his Spear in a place of extreme yin... strange things began to happen."

"We used giant stones to press down on Heize's grave, but every night, we would often hear strange sounds coming from inside the grave."

"The position of the giant stones... had also shifted slightly."

"Heize... is this you refusing to let us go even after death?"

"He is a Great Demon!"
