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

Chapter 432 The People Who Don't Exist

Zhou Laoer who came from the opposite side still had that strange look, holding a bell in one hand and lighting a flashlight in the other. As Tan Ren returned to 'normal', the ringing of the bell stopped abruptly.

Zhou Laoer walked up to me and Tan Ren. At this moment, Tan Ren was lying on the ground with some rags hanging on his body. He was unconscious, and I didn't know what was going on. I quickly got up and stood face to face with Zhou Laoer.

He was very rude and snapped: "Why are you here!"

I said: "Come to save you, if you hadn't lost the news for no reason, would we have come to this ancient tomb?"

Zhou Laoer sneered and said, "I'm afraid the person you want to save is not me."

The two of us have broken our faces a long time ago, so there is no need to give him face: "Yes, I wanted to save Zhou Xuanye, but I didn't want to save you, but who keeps you haunted." It was quite embarrassing, with dirt marks and blood mud all over his body, and it was obviously not easy.

When I said this, his eyes suddenly became very strange, and he said: "It seems that you really treat Zhou Xiaosan as a brother, tsk tsk, I wanted to deal with you, but now I suddenly don't want to kill you." The tone is a bit strange, and I'm used to it: "Thank you for not killing me."

Zhou Laoer sneered, and said, "You're welcome, I won't kill you, I just want to wait to see the day you regret it." His words obviously meant something, but I knew that even if I asked further, This psychopath can't speak, so I didn't say anything, and squatted down to check on Tan Ren's situation.

Zhou Er Er is obviously aware of Tan Ren's affairs, and I even wonder if only Zhou Er Er knows about this matter, Zhou Xuanye may not know about it?
"Boss, what is he..." I wanted to say what it was, but I felt that it was not polite to say it, so I said, "Why did he turn into purple hair?"

Zhou Lao Er put away the corpse bell and said, "Why did you turn into purple hair, don't you know very well?"

I really want to slap him, the same person, the same face, different personality, the feeling is really different.

"I know shit."

"Didn't Zhou Xiaosan teach you a lot? You were almost confiscated as an apprentice. Why, what is the truth of the matter? Don't you have a clue in your heart? If you can't even guess this, Zhou Xiaosan really helped you in vain It's gone." When he said that, I felt a shock in my heart.

Zhou Xuanye did teach me a lot. Among the situations I know, there are three situations that fit Tan Ren's situation.

The first type is Kuiba. Only Kuiba can freely switch between human and corpse, but Kuiba is extremely rare. I don’t think it’s such a coincidence.Besides, according to legend, Kuiba has the ability to fly into the sky and escape from the ground, and it takes a blink of an eye to kill a person.Although Tan Ren is awesome after transformation, he is not that awesome, otherwise I wouldn't be alive now.

The second situation is corpse poison. After being poisoned by the green hair's corpse poison, according to the different physique of each person, the effect after the poison is also different. Yes, and there are some other effects that will almost be incurable.One of them is called corpse transformation. After being poisoned by corpse poison, a living person will gradually turn into a hairy corpse, becoming a normal person during the day and a monster on his wrist.

But in the second case, the poisoned person will lose their self-awareness within a few days, completely turning into a monster that attacks flesh and blood, and will soon be subdued.Tan Ren obviously does not belong to this category, because I have known him for more than a year.

Then, there is only the third possibility left. This possibility is also the one that I don't want to believe the most, but it seems to have the highest probability, and that is 'refining the corpse'.Zhou Xuanye told me about the origin of the art of refining corpses. It has a long history. Although modern times have fallen, the supernatural powers of the ancients are still passed on by word of mouth.

The purpose of refining corpses was originally to preserve the corpses and find a way to cure them. Later, it evolved into using corpses as a means of seeking wealth and killing people. Therefore, it has embarked on an evil path, and it has gone further and further along this evil path.

In the lineage of corpse refining, those with great abilities can refine the 'corpse king'. The corpse king is born from the soul, just like a living person.But this is no different from a living person, in fact it is just an appearance, it is just an imitation of the corpse king.

The human body is composed of the soul, and the soul is the sex. Only with the soul can there be spirituality and all kinds of emotions, that is, the spiritual world; while the soul is the form, and the soul is the projection of the soul, controlling the human body, with form but without spirit.To put it simply, a corpse with a soul in its body is a living dead person, but without a soul in its body, it is what we commonly call a walking corpse.Most of the walking corpses are just to occupy the time to keep the souls from dispersing, and they are placed in them, but the corpse king is formed by gathering the scattered souls wandering in the earth's atmosphere.

Such a corpse king, like a living person, seems to have its own consciousness, its own thoughts, its own memory, and its own code of conduct, but in fact, all of these are projections from the body, and it has no The soul, without real consciousness, does not have a real spiritual world like us. Everything about it is taken for granted.

Tan Ren’s personality is actually a bit strange. For example, he speculates in stocks. It’s already twelve o’clock in the evening. At that time, it’s obviously meaningless to look at the data. , Tan Ren has always been a person with a poisonous mouth but a high IQ. It is very strange for such a high IQ person to behave with such a low IQ.

I didn't take it to heart before, because the brain is smart, this kind of people always have some quirks that ordinary people can't understand.

At this moment, there is another reason why I suspect that Tan Ren is the corpse king, because Zhou Xuanye belongs to the lineage of corpse refinement, so if many coincidences come together, it is not a coincidence.

Could it be that the furry, clean freak, and vicious-tongued boss I know doesn't exist at all?What is the projection of soul?It is the same as the computer program of artificial intelligence, which can talk to you and calculate by itself, but no matter how human it is, it is not composed of body and brain, but programs and data.

This is the essential difference.

Those scattered souls gathered during the refining process are Tan Ren's programs and data, and this corpse is the output hardware.

I touched my face, completely dumbfounded.

does not exist?
A living person, whom I treat as a brother, unexpectedly, unexpectedly does not exist?

At this moment, many images flashed through my mind.The scene when we met for the first time in the office, this terrific guy looked at people from the corners of his eyes, and asked me to hand over the pen for a while, and the paper for a while; we went to the downtown to find those two gangsters to avenge Gu Xin Out of anger, we went to the desert and the jungle together. In order to get rid of the fox fairy, we went to Jinglei Valley, Yumen, and the icy and snowy little Fusang.

Along the way, although they often blame each other and occasionally cheat teammates, in their hearts they are brothers who live and die together.Even though I knew that Tan Ren and Zhou Xuanye had many secrets, even though I knew that many things were unusual, I didn't deliberately expose them.

But now, an increasingly clear fact is telling me that your brother does not exist.

It’s like you’re in an online relationship, you met a goddess, you love her so much that you propose marriage, and you suddenly find out that the other person is a computer chat software, you’ve been fucking with a program all this time?

I don't know how long it took, maybe only a few tens of seconds, maybe more than ten minutes, I wiped my face vigorously, raised my head and looked at Zhou Laoer.He seemed to understand clearly, and said, "Have you figured it out?"

I said: "Second Zhou, don't play charades with me anymore. What's going on? What are your identities and goals!" This bastard has been implying that Zhou Xuanye has bad intentions for me. I thought it was him before. Sowing discord, but now about Tan Ren's affairs, I have some doubts.

Why did Zhou Xuanye treat me badly?

I am now of golden muscle and bone, if he now takes a fancy to my body of gold muscle and bone, and turns against me and wants to harm me, then it is still in the past, but gold muscle and bone are just a recent thing, before that Woolen cloth?And why before that?
Unexpected prophet?

Zhou Er Er paced around Tan Ren on the ground, his expression full of malice, and said: "Why should I tell you? I couldn't kill you twice, and my self-esteem has been seriously hurt. I'm just waiting to see the good show , look at how your trusted brother made you unable to survive or die...Remember, I hate other people's feelings and hypocrisy the most." After saying this, he knelt down and pushed Tan Blade: "Wake up."

After a few clicks, Tan Ren's eyelids moved, as if he was about to wake up.At this moment, Zhou Laoer said in a strange way: "I don't want to tell you the truth, maybe Zhou Xiaosan will? You can try it and see if he will tell you his real purpose, tsk... Poor. "As soon as the words fell, the face full of yin and yang and full of malice suddenly changed, and then he said suddenly: "Tian Gu, don't believe what he said!"

I know that Zhou Xuanye is back after Zhou Erer left.

There was no time for face-to-face communication, because Tan Ren had already woken up, and the turtle suddenly sat up, and then quickly observed the surrounding environment. When he saw Zhou Xuanye, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and then frowned: "Your boy finally came out gone."

There was no smile on Zhou Xuanye's face. He was clearly aware of everything that happened before. He just took out the clothes from the equipment bag and signaled Tan Ren to put them on first.

Tan Ren obviously has memories, he glanced at me with a look he had never seen before, and said lightly: "If you are afraid, get out."

I said, "I'm afraid of you? Just kidding, not long ago, I deleted the word fear from my dictionary."

Tan Ren's expression improved a little, and he explained: "The ghost figurine was too powerful before, and something happened as a last resort. What is this place?"

I said, "I don't know, probably Shui Yushuang brought me here to hide from you, so naturally I disappeared."

Tan Ren nodded, and asked Zhou Xuanye: "Where is Xiangu Ke?"

Zhou Xuanye opened his mouth, as if he was about to speak, at this moment, a light suddenly came from a distance, and then a strange voice shouted: "He is here!" Before we could react, there was a series of When the gun rang out, Zhou Xuanye reacted quickly, pressing down Tan Ren and me at the same time, avoiding the gunfire, and shouted: "Run!"
