The Secret Art of Refining the Dead: The Walking Corpse File

Chapter 279 The Living Dead

I was staring at the horrible wound in a daze, but Zhou Xuanye suddenly stretched out his hand and touched Han Xu's stomach inch by inch. After touching it twice, his expression froze, he stared at Han Xu's belly, and said, : "He has something in his stomach."

I subconsciously asked, "What?"

Zhou Xuanye glanced at me, frowned tightly, and said: "Then you have to open it and have a look to find out."

When Han Xu heard that his stomach was going to be opened, he screamed in fright: "Don't kill me, don't kill me, aren't we good friends, Su Tiangu?"

"As a co-author, you can call my name clearly. You usually do it on purpose, right?"

Han Xu shrank his head and said, "I'm sorry, I won't dare in the future. Don't open my stomach."

I couldn't help scratching my hair, feeling that things were going in an increasingly strange direction.Why does Han Xu smell like a dead person?Could it really be corpse spots on his body?It shouldn't be wrong, Zhou Xuanye often dealt with the dead, how could he mistake the corpse spot?
Could it be that the Han Xu in front of me is actually a dead man?
Who opened his stomach?What's in it?
This kid is Han Zitong's darling, and it is impossible for Han Zitong not to know about the changes in him.

Or... These changes were originally related to Han Zitong?Thinking of this possibility, I felt chills for those who didn't come.Her feelings for Han Xu are obvious to all. If Han Xu has become like this now, it has something to do with her, and it may even be her doing it, it would be too chilling.

Zhou Xuanye's hand was still on Han Xu's stomach, and he was groping carefully, as if he wanted to find out what was in that stomach.I couldn't help but reached out and touched it, and found that the thing inside was hard and quite big, it should be as big as a bowl.

How could such a large and hard foreign object be placed in the stomach of a living person?
I couldn't help but withdraw my hand, staring at Han Xu who was emitting a bad smell, and said to Zhou Xuanye: "Brother Zhou, is he really a dead person?"

Zhou Xuanye hummed.

I said: "But, why is he exactly the same as a living person?"

Zhou Xuanye shook his head slightly: "I don't know." After a pause, he continued: "There are only three kinds of people in the world who can survive death. One is the corpse leader, which is the highest level of corpse transformation, and only exists in legends. The second is the corpse king, which is the highest state of corpse refining. The refined corpse is no different from the living person; the third is the living corpse. The living corpse is extremely rare. The will to live makes people seem to be reborn after death, some of which are due to some natural and earthly treasures, such as the legendary golden jade clothes."

"Han Xu can't be the leader of the corpse, nor can he be the king of the corpse, so...he became a living corpse?"

Zhou Xuanye nodded slightly.

Han Xu couldn't understand what we were talking about, he just looked at us with the eyes of a bad guy.

If it was a living corpse, it meant that Han Xu was already dead. How did he die?Judging by how well Han Zitong protects him, it's easy for him not to have any accidents.

Could it be related to the Jinsha Cave again?

Suddenly, I remembered something Han Zitong said before.She said that there seemed to be something in the stomach of the golden man, and the people from the archaeological institute later dissected it and took away the content.But now, the golden man was missing, Han Xu was dead, and another hard thing was stuffed into Han Xu's stomach.

Could it be that what is in his stomach is the stuff in the stomach of the golden man?

So what the people in the army are looking for is not the golden man himself, but the thing in the golden man's stomach?

Han Zitong actually swallowed that thing for himself, and stuffed it into Han Xu's stomach?

No, not possible.

She wouldn't treat Han Xu like this, she had some feelings, whether it was true or not, one could tell at a glance.Han Zitong's feelings for Han Xu are absolutely sincere. It is impossible for her to treat Han Xu like this. There must be some reason for this.

But this time, Zhou Xuanye seemed to have figured something out, and suddenly said: "I understand. He is already a living dead, and your blood vitality is too strong, it would be bad for him to eat it, and it caused his premature death. After a pause, Zhou Xuanye said again: "If it is as expected, the reason why he has survived until now is probably related to this thing in his stomach."

"This thing, is it a treasure similar to the jade robe?" I asked.

Gold-threaded jade clothes, this thing is probably known to everyone. In ancient times, princes believed that jade can preserve the soul and body of a person. As long as the body and soul are protected by golden-threaded jade clothes, people will come back to life. Chance.

But this thing is quite expensive, and it is difficult for ordinary princes to bear it. It takes three to five years for craftsmen to make a jade suit of ordinary specifications.

And what kind of treasure is in Han Xu's belly?
It's no wonder that when the golden man was dug out from the Jinsha Cave, it was also lifelike. It seemed that it was also related to the things in the stomach.

Wait...something is wrong.

A paradox suddenly occurred to me.

If this thing can make death feel like life, then this thing was originally placed in the stomach of a golden man, so the golden man should also become a living dead.

Later, if, as Han Zitong said, the golden man was disembowelled by the archaeologists and took away the contents of his stomach, then once the things were taken away, the golden man should be no different from a dead person. crawl out?
Could it be that Han Zitong also lied about this?
Why is she lying to us?
Fortunately, Han Xu's idiot appearance fooled the people from the previous army, otherwise, if he was captured, wouldn't he be disemboweled?Thinking of this, I hurriedly put on clothes for Han Xu, and asked Zhou Xuanye while putting them on, "Brother Zhou, what shall we do now?"

Zhou Xuanye shook his head slightly, and said: "I don't know if your blood will have a great influence on him. If the influence is too great, I'm afraid he will eventually..."

"What will happen?" Zhou Xuanye's serious expression gave me a shock.

He said: "It will rot."

Although Han Xu was stupid, the memory of the living dead seemed to make him avoid the marks on his body interestingly. It was as if he couldn't see the corpse spots on his body, and he rolled around: "Untie me quickly, I'm hungry." Clothes, of course you have to untie the rope. After finding out what happened to him, I couldn't bear to tie him up anymore, so I untied the rope. Han Xu immediately hid at the foot of the bed to put on his clothes, staring at us very vigilantly .

Up to now, the whole thing has a general idea in my mind.

What Han Zitong told us about Jinren and Jinsha Cave before, combined with the current situation, there are too many loopholes.But to sum up the whole thing, it should be that Han Zitong transplanted the treasure from the golden man into the dead Han Xu's body, so the people above came to her.

As for what happened in Jinsha Cave, how it got into Han Zitong's hands, and why Han Xu died, we don't know.

The room was in a mess at the moment, and Han Xu was frightened all night, crying and howling, and when he finished crying, he clutched his stomach and cried out that he was hungry.Although he is a big man, he is almost like a brat, Zhou Xuanye and I can't ignore him yelling and shouting so much.

With the state of the house like this, he didn't feel at ease going out to eat, so he went to order him a bowl of noodles.While eating noodles, Han Xu kept asking Han Zitong, how could Zhou Xuanye and I tell him the truth, if we did, I'm afraid we would be annoyed even more. In desperation, I couldn't help yelling at him .

The kid was frightened, teary, and choked while eating noodles, I felt like I was heinous in an instant.

Sitting on the messy sofa, Zhou Xuanye and I didn't know what to do for a moment.The nanny was taken away, Han Zitong was in the base, Zhou Xuanye and I were on it, we were weak and we had no way to contend with it.It is impossible to save Han Zitong, now Han Xu is left alone, we have to take care of him.

What should I do?
While thinking about it, Zhou Xuanye seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly stood up from the sofa, and said in an urgent voice: "No, let's go, pack up and go quickly." This surprise completely confused me, and I said: " How to go where?"

Zhou Xuanye didn't answer, but instructed me: "Go find a bag and pack a few things for Boy Han. Let's go out and hide for a while. The people above were careless yesterday and were fooled by Han Xu. If they suffer from Miss Han, As long as we find out the relationship between Han Xu and Ms. Han, he will definitely come back to arrest Han, and it is a good weight for him to threaten her."
