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

Chapter 59 hint
Tan Ren's sudden appearance was like a life-saving straw, freeing me from self-blame and painful emotions in an instant, so at this moment, I even ignored some common sense things.For example, the distance between him and me is less than 15 meters. I am not nearsighted, and my eyesight is even very good. Although the light of the lighter in my hand is weak, it is not enough to see things more than ten meters away. unclear.

Even if the light is blurred, at least you can see a general dress and outline, right?

In fact, all I saw was a black shadow, a complete shadow, I couldn't see the clothes, I couldn't see the outline of the face, but because I was too excited, I didn't notice this abnormality at all in the first moment. Instead, he immediately turned around and ran towards Tan Ren.

Almost when I was about to get close to him, the black shadow gave me a vision like a phantom, which made my vision blur, and then disappeared without a trace.

I was stunned for a moment, stopped, and stared blankly at the stone wall in front of me.At this moment, I am already close to the inner side of the stone wall, only three or four meters away from the position where 'Tan Ren' was standing before.But at this moment, the place is empty and there is nothing.

What about people?

Why did it suddenly disappear?
After the first moment of shock, I immediately remembered the things I had neglected before. In an instant, I realized that the black shadow I saw just now was not human at all.

I had a chill.

Not a person, is it a ghost?

Tan Ren's ghost?
Although it is not the first time I have seen a ghost, when I think of this possibility, I am still a little scared. If it is really Tan Ren's ghost, how could he appear here?Could it be that he came to seek revenge on me?Thinking of this, my scalp felt numb, and I couldn't help lowering my voice: "Boss? Is it you?"

Almost at the moment when my voice fell to the ground, out of the corner of my eye, I suddenly saw that the black figure that disappeared just now appeared strangely on my left side...

Really... really him?
I closed my eyes for a moment, then opened them immediately, gritted my teeth, and said bravely, "Boss, I'm sorry." Zhou Xuanye told me that the soul has no memory after death, and will wander around the body, and then gradually To disappear, according to an older saying, is to go to the underworld to report.And those souls who did not go to the underworld, or who had unfulfilled wishes during their lifetime, will become ghosts.

Ghosts don't have much memory. They only remember the most profound things in their lifetime. Most people who die suddenly will remember the cause of their death or the person who killed them.And now, I am the one who killed Tan Ren, so, is he a soul or a ghost now?

Did he come to seek revenge on me?

I bit the bullet and turned around to look at him, to be exact, at the black shadow.

The moment I turned around, an unknown wind blew from in front of me. The coldness was not the coldness of the groundwater, but a gloomy coldness.I was afraid, guilty, and desperate. Too many emotions were intertwined at the moment, and I couldn't say a word.

What should you do when confronted with a ghost?
What should you do when confronted with a ghost killed by you?
When this ghost took good care of you when he was alive, should you be afraid or calm when facing him?

If this is a hypothetical question, I may make many assumptions, but now it is a fact, so all the assumptions are not valid. My reaction at the moment is to retreat. If I hadn't controlled my feet, I am afraid that my body would have already reflexed. Sexually escaped.

Humans include all living things, and in times of danger, escape is an instinct.

I don't know how this 'Tan Ren' in front of me will treat me, but the sense of crisis in the face of unfamiliar things is inherent.

Looking at each other in this silence, Tan Ren's voice sounded again: "Help me..."

In the movie, if the ghost said to save me in the first sentence, the next sentence basically means to save my life.

The soles of my feet blew cold air, and said: "Boss... I, I know I'm sorry for you, I didn't mean it." When I finished saying this, Hei Ying raised his hand suddenly, as if To rush towards me.My heart beat violently, and I thought to myself: For the sake of my part-time job for you, please let me die quickly.

But then, I found that it didn't rush over, but kept stretching out its hand. Rather than attacking, it seemed to be pointing at something for me to see.

However, it was pointing at my back.

Could it be... is there something behind me?
Holding the lighter, I turned around suddenly, with the lighter in one hand, but the dagger was already tightly gripped in the other.

But behind me, it was still empty, the platform was dripping wet, and there was nothing else but water.

What exactly does it show me?
I turned my head and wanted to ask Tan Ren, but found that the black shadow had disappeared again.

Disappearing for a while, and suddenly appearing again for a while, watching a movie doesn’t feel like it, but actually appearing next to me is definitely a heart-pounding thing.When I turned back again, sure enough, the black shadow appeared in front of me again, which was the position it pointed to before.

Looking at that Tan Ren, my heart suddenly moved. If he really wanted to pay for my life, he would have done it long ago. Looking at what he is doing now, is he trying to tell me something?
"Boss? Are you going to take me to find something?" The dead are the most important, and what the dead care about most is of course their own body!I said again: "Could it be your body?" Since I got acquainted with Tan Ren, I haven't used your name in such a serious way.

Tan Ren only answered me with two words, and it was still: Help me...

At this moment, my whole body calmed down.Perhaps it was because I realized that Tan Ren was still the same Tan Ren before, and had not become something like Huang Yaozu, so the shadow that was suppressing my head and my mind dissipated a lot. go.

Walking all the way back, I began to pay attention to everything around me. Since he guided me like this, there must be something special.However, walking all the way back, even if I had the energy of 12 points, I still got nothing.

Tan Ren, what are you going to tell me?
At this time, I saw half of the python's body again, that is to say, I returned to the place where I first ran aground.

"Boss?" I yelled a few times, but the black figure didn't appear again, but I knew that he must be trying to tell me something, perhaps, the clue was nearby, and I began to search carefully, leaning on a lighter The light has searched almost every corner of this area.

Not to mention, I really found something.

I always thought that the groundwater was just flowing underground, but through my observation, I found that it was on the stone wall, and there were actually many holes.I don't know anything about geology, but although these small holes are inconspicuous, they are more numerous. I really think of the small air holes on frozen tofu.

In fact, I found it strange before that at a depth of 50 meters underground, there is no lack of oxygen. Could it be because of the snake hole?This is obviously impossible, can a hole pass oxygen?Looking at these blowholes, I immediately realized that this ancient underground river hidden deep in the ground might not be sealed, and it probably had some surface water outlet!

So, is the end of the underground river in front of you not a dead end, but an exit?

Could it be that Tan Ren wants to guide me to see this?

I couldn't help looking at the rushing underground river beside me. Its water is too fast. I don't know if there is an exit at the end, but I know that if I jump down, I will definitely be hit and bloody. After all, Who knows if there will be another Ge Qiankou?The odds of this kind of gambling on luck are too small, even if there is an exit, it is impossible for me to jump.

I don't think Tan Ren wanted to tell me this.

So, what is his intention?I couldn't help but said: "Boss, since you can talk, can you tell me directly?" After finishing speaking, I began to look around in case Tan Ren suddenly appeared, but after looking for a long while, the surrounding area was empty, the only one The only thing I have is the corpse of the giant python not far from my feet.

When I looked at the corpse, an idea suddenly popped up in my mind, could it be this giant python that Tan Ren wanted me to see?As if to confirm my conjecture, after looking at it, I immediately found that there was a big wound on the abdomen of the giant python.Since the python is lying on its side, I didn't look carefully before, so I ignored it.Now that I took a closer look, my scalp felt numb, because the wound was not cut by a weapon, and the wound was turned inside out, as if something had ripped open the python's belly from the inside.

I immediately thought of Qiuhuangxi.
