Chapter 80 Xia Sheng Poisoned
Chapter 80 Xia Sheng Poisoned
Although Qin Yechen was seriously injured because of his thunder-inducing yellow talisman, in the final analysis, what Uncle Chu Qi did was right.Moreover, he sent such precious plant ash later, I have to thank him very much.
"Can you make copper coin swords?" I asked Lan Zhefei.
Lan Zhefei shook his head: "Mine are all made for me by my senior... It's so annoying to do this!"
Just when he was a little disappointed, a voice came from behind: "I will."
I raised my head in surprise, and saw that Qin Yechen had opened his eyes.
"How are you feeling?" I asked quickly.
"It's good." He was still a little puzzled, and his eyes unconsciously fell on the urn containing plant ashes.
Lan Zhefei told him how Uncle Chu Qi sent this thing, and I helped him sit up.
The place on his body filled with plant ash has gradually healed, and the plant ash seems to have become a part of his body.
The yin and corpse qi in my body also gradually became normal, and my hanging heart finally let go.
Qin Yechen glanced at the five emperors' money beside him, and asked me, "Do you want to make a copper coin sword?"
I nodded: "How can I say that Uncle Chu Qi also helped us, and now the magic weapon is broken, I want to help him fix it. You teach me, I will do it!"
Qin Yechen nodded slightly, then asked Lan Zhefei, "Is there any cinnabar thread?"
Lan Zhefei immediately took out a large bundle from his bag.
A copper coin sword requires a specific amount of five emperor coins.Lan Zhefei counted, but five pieces were still missing.Fortunately, he had a spare, ten thousand and one, and sold me five.
"Proficient!" I gritted my teeth.
Lan Zhefei also had an expression on his face that he took advantage of me: "This is blessed by the temple master! I only have seven! Ten thousand and eleven are still a friendship price!"
All right, all right, the farts of their temple masters are delicious.
The reason why the Copper Coin Sword is so powerful is due to two other factors besides the mana of the sword wielder.
One is that the material of the five emperors' money and the cinnabar thread used to make the sword must be the best, and the other is that in the process of making the sword, powerful formations are constantly engraved on the sword.
Uncle Chuqi's five emperors' money already had formations, and the cinnabar line is pure and empty, so there is no need to say more.
But I don't know how to engrave the formation when making the sword.Fortunately, Qin Yechen understood everything.
Although he couldn't touch the five emperors' money and the cinnabar line, he taught me hand in hand and told me every detail of how to draw the formation.
During this time, Lan Zhefei, that stinky and shameless person, kept stealing his teacher.
I have been able to do things since I was a child, and the formations on the copper coin sword are outlined with cinnabar lines.I studied all night, and learned all the above nine formations the next morning.
Lianqiao said that Uncle Chu Qi's whereabouts are uncertain, and I was afraid that he would leave at any time, so I didn't have time to sleep, so I helped him make the copper coin sword.
It was still foggy outside today, Qin Yechen rested for a day and a night, and the situation has improved a lot.We are not in a hurry to enter the stockade.
Lian Qiao asked the shopkeeper about it, and found out that Uncle Chu Qi was still there.
Qin Yechen and I knocked on Uncle Chu Qi's room door.
He came to the door and was a little surprised to see us.
"Uncle Chuqi, thank you for helping us last time. Your copper coin sword is broken. I picked up those five emperor coins and remade it for you! The formation above was taught to me by Qin Yechen He taught it all! He is also very grateful for your help!"
I'm emphasizing the last three sentences, lest Uncle Chu Qi forget Qin Yechen's contribution.Qin Yechen was a little dissatisfied, he was gouged out by my eyes, but he could only keep silent.
Uncle Chu Qi was still in surprise, I lifted the red cloth wrapped around the copper coin sword a little, revealing the sword body inside: "Uncle Chu Qi, are you satisfied?"
"Satisfied!" He smiled, with a very happy smile on his old-fashioned face.
He took it and opened it for a second, looking at it with an even more surprised expression.
It is estimated that the five five emperor coins were found not to be his own.
I explained: "I can't find the other five. Those five are from the Qingxu Temple. The quality is not as good as yours, okay..."
"No! Even better than my original one." He said, and looked at Qin Yechen again: "How do you know these formations?"
"I learned it before I was alive." Qin Yechen said lightly.
"These are all lost now...you...were you also a member of the Taoist sect?"
"No." Qin Yechen denied it dryly.
Uncle Chu Qi stared at him inquisitively. Qin Yechen never liked being stared at, and was already a little dissatisfied.
I was afraid that the two of us would fight again, so after saying goodbye to Uncle Chu Qi, I hurriedly dragged Qin Yechen away.
Back in the room, Qin Yechen said, "Stay away from that person in the future!" with a sour tone.
"What's the matter?" I think Uncle Chu Qi is not bad except he is a bit fierce!
Qin Yechen looked at me with an expression of not wanting to speak.
Lan Zhefei, who was lying on the floor playing with his mobile phone, heard a smile: "Brother-in-law is jealous! Sister Xia Sheng, you are working tirelessly to make things for a man, what a big pot of old vinegar!"
Qin Yechen knows my purpose of making the copper coin sword, so he won't be jealous of such a thing.
I glanced at Lan Zhefei, who was deliberately provoking trouble, but Qin Yechen behind him said: "He looks at you differently."
"What's the difference?" I only know that sometimes Uncle Chu Qi looks at me more fiercely than at Forsythia.
Qin Yechen didn't want to talk to me anymore, Lan Zhefei laughed, mocking his jealousy.
I had a good night's sleep and woke up at noon the next day.
Qin Yechen pulled me out of bed, and the two of us were about to go downstairs for dinner, but his body swayed and he almost fell down.
I quickly supported him: "What's wrong?"
"It seems that there is something wrong with the wound." He frowned.
I was startled, and quickly found the scissors to cut off the bandage on his wound, only to find that the wound filled with plant ash was empty!
"How could this be?" I was stunned, "Could it be that those plant ashes are fake?"
Qin Yechen shook his head: "It should be true. Yesterday, I could indeed feel the effect of plant ash."
I didn't understand, so I went downstairs and called Lan Zhefei and Lianqiao up who were eating.
Lian Qiao looked at the wound and said uncertainly: "For ordinary zombies, these are enough. The eldest brother-in-law is the corpse king, will it be different? Otherwise, let me ask Uncle Chu Qi?"
Lian Qiao went out as she said, and after a while she came back dejectedly: "Uncle Chu Qi left before the fog started."
So what to do?The fog outside has not cleared yet!
Qin Yechen thought about the jar of plant ashes and said, "Use this again."
This thing is indeed useful to him, but I don't know why it all disappeared today, and the wound hasn't healed.
There is no other way, and I can only do this.Just like that night, plant ash was filled into his wound.
Only in this way, the remaining half of the can of plant ash was used up.
Tomorrow, we will enter the stockade no matter what.
After the fog, it's not that you can't drive, but it's very easy to get lost in the mountains.It takes a day to walk from the inn to the stockade.
Depart early in the morning and arrive in the evening, so we can't wait for the fog to clear at noon before we can go on our way.If you walk on the mountain road at night, it is easy to encounter powerful things.
The four of them deliberated, and they all felt that they would rather travel in foggy days than travel at night.
After I went back and packed my luggage, I suddenly remembered that I hadn't seen Bu Rui in the past two days.
It's not that I'm just looking for trouble, it's just that I have seen the scattered people living in this inn during meals, but Bu Rui has never appeared.
Did Qin Yechen hide from us on purpose after getting angry?
It must be so!
I'm glad I didn't see her.
I slept nervously all night, and woke up the next morning, and it was still foggy.Forsythia said that it was an unfortunate time for us to come, and these two months happened to be the season of frequent fog.
I checked Qin Yechen's wound, and the ash inside was indeed much less than last night.Qin Yechen's mana recovered a lot, as if he had absorbed the ashes.
The plant ash applied at one time is only enough to last for two days, so I must enter the stockade today.
When I went to the front desk to pay the bill, looking at the bill like water, I felt that I had to dig another locust tree and sell it.
Four people were tied together with ropes, Lianqiao was the first, Lan Zhefei was the second, I was the third, and Qin Yechen was the rear.
Forsythia still held a rope in her hand, which was held around her zombie waist.
I know that it is not easy for a corpse exorcist to raise a zombie that is obedient and able to fight, so even if the zombie got out of control that night, Lianqiao was still unwilling to kill her own zombie unless it was absolutely necessary.
Now only one of the three zombies is left, Lian Qiao feels very uncomfortable.
Qin Yechen broke one of her zombies, and I'm also quite embarrassed.Fortunately, Qin Yechen said that he had a way to find another zombie for Lianqiao to make up for her.
The zombies took the lead, Lianqiao knew the way, Lan Zhefei took the compass to see if he was going in the wrong direction, and Qin Yechen and I were in the rear.
A group of people walked to a large canyon without any risk and stopped.
The white mist has not dissipated. Even if I can't see it, I can still hear the roaring river rushing by below the canyon.
"Where is the bridge?" I asked Forsythia.
Forsythia took the fog lamp in her hand and shone not far away.In the dense fog, a rope dangled above the river.
Lan Zhefei was speechless: "Isn't it because you want us to walk a high-altitude tightrope?"
"It's swinging on the swing!" Lian Qiao smiled.
I illuminated it with a fog lamp, and the place where the light could reach was a vast expanse of whiteness, and I couldn't see anything.I don't know how wide this canyon is!
I'm sure I didn't have such a big arm to shake it...
Let alone me, Lan Zhefei might not even be able to pass by!
"Is this really the only way to get over it?" I asked Forsythia once, and the little girl nodded.
Lan Zhefei pointed at her silly zombie and asked again: "Then how can this one get through? Its fingers can't be bent, so it won't get through!"
"Just tie it up. Not to mention zombies, cattle and sheep are all transported in like this."
"Is this rope bearable?" I touched the thick rope on the baby's arm, I don't know what it was made of, it was very slippery and cold.
"No, we have been using it for hundreds of years." Lian Qiao was full of confidence.
Because of the three hundred years, my heart is even more worried.
Lianqiao said as she untied the rope on her body, and directed her zombies to come to the starting point of the high-altitude cableway.
"Zhe Fei, you go there first, otherwise no one will untie the rope for the zombie in a while," she said.
Lan Zhefei reluctantly stood up from behind me: "Brother-in-law, go."
"I want to bring Shengsheng." Qin Yechen said.
"It's okay, I won't fall!" Lian Qiao pulled him over, and tied the safety rope around his waist.
Lan Zhefei clenched the handle of the pulley, with an expression on his face that was about to cry: "Sister Xia Sheng, if I die, please remember to ask the temple master to summon my soul...I haven't honored his old man well yet..."
"Bah bah bah! Crow's mouth! Lianqiao is not afraid of a little girl, what are you afraid of, a man! Don't be afraid!" I cheered him up.
Unexpectedly, Lan Zhefei's face became even more mournful: "Brother, they all raised me as a younger sister!"
Lian Qiao chuckled lightly when she heard the words: "Hurry up!"
With a command, she pushed behind Lan Zhefei forcefully, and Lan Zhefei's body slid along the cableway and slid towards the opposite bank under the effect of gravity.
In the valley, apart from the sound of the Nu River slapping against the shore, the only sound was Lan Zhefei's scream that resounded through the sky.
That voice was shrill, even more miserable than the ape's voice in Baidi City, it probably frightened Lan Zhefei's fragile heart.
It can be seen from Lan Zhefei's ability to be a Taoist priest who catches ghosts that he is actually quite courageous.But at this moment, firstly, it was intentional, and secondly, I believe it was the first time he experienced such a zipline, and he was really scared.
The greatest fear of human beings comes from the fear of the unknown.
For a long time, the sound over there disappeared.I couldn't see the situation on the other side, but Lianqiao reckoned that the time was almost up, so she retracted the rope.
She found another piece of rope, tied the zombie up, and hung it on the pulley of the rope like a sandbag.
Push hard, and the zombie is pushed over.
Guessing that the time is about the same, after Lan Zhefei untied his body at the other end, Lianqiao retracted the rope again.
"Sister Xia Sheng or eldest brother-in-law next?" Lian Qiao asked.
Qin Yechen could see my fear and said, "I'm with Shengsheng."
Lianqiao was a little embarrassed: "I don't know if this rope can hold it..."
Yes, the ropes have been used for hundreds of years.
"It's okay, I'll go there by myself. Anyway, there is a safety rope, so I won't fall." While comforting Qin Yechen, I also comforted myself in the same way.
Qin Yechen could have taken me there, but his injuries have not healed, and it would be dangerous to take me across such a wide canyon, so we had to use this method.
Lianqiao helped me fasten the safety rope, Qin Yechen told me: "Persist on and you will reach the other side, don't let go."
"There is a safety rope, it won't fall!" I twisted my waist and showed Qin Yechen the safety rope behind me.
Qin Yechen felt a little helpless: "I'm worried that you are afraid."
Also, when I was hung in the middle of the canyon, I might be scared to cry.
I nodded, and after clenching the handle again and again, Forsythia pushed me over.
"Don't look down! Don't think about it!"
Qin Yechen's repeated instructions came from behind me, even if I couldn't see his expression at the moment, I could still think of his worry and concern.
Before I knew it, I had reached this point with him.There is still some joy in my heart.
The speed of the rope was much faster than I expected, and the thick white mist stagnated in the valley. At this moment, my intrusion seemed to directly split the white mist.
The wind howled and blew across my cheeks, like a knife, which actually made me feel very painful.
My eyelashes became wet with white mist, making my vision a little blurred.I held the handle with both hands and not only moved it, but I had to endure it first, and then wipe it when it hit the ground.
However, halfway through the walk, my face turned cold, as if I had been touched by something.
I was stunned, there wouldn't be anything in this white mist, right?Just thinking about it, the same touch came from the other cheek.
I almost lost the pulley handle in my hand with a shudder!
There is something in the white mist!
Did Lan Zhe meet him when he flew over?
I was thinking wildly, when someone twisted my waist suddenly.The unexpected pain came, and I subconsciously wanted to avoid it. I twisted my body, and there was a sharp pain in my wrist, which made me lose any strength.
My hand slipped from my palm, and I screamed subconsciously, being caught by the safety rope on my back and hanging in the air.
Slightly relieved, I tried to grab the safety rope to re-hold the handle of the pulley.
This posture is very difficult, and I worked hard for a long time before I hooked the handle.However, when the hand slipped, the handle actually slipped away!
It was moved away!
I was also extremely annoyed at the moment, ignoring the fear in my heart, and angrily scolded: "Who is making trouble!"
"Hmph." A disdainful sneer came from a distance, which was still familiar.
There is a white mist everywhere I look, and I can't see who is there.However, the pain in my cheek continued to intensify, making me very uncomfortable.
Suddenly, a woman's face with bloody facial features protruded from the white mist, which shocked me a lot.
I stepped back, and the woman's face kept coming towards me.Angrily, I raised my foot to face that face and kicked it up. The woman let out a mournful howl and disappeared into the white mist.
I breathed a sigh of relief, and held the handle of the pulley with the other hand, and continued to slide forward.
In the white mist, a woman's face kept appearing.They pulled me, trying to pull me into it. I couldn't dodge in time, and many parts of my body were scratched by those women.
They stared at me like lingering ghosts, but the strange thing was that I couldn't feel the different ghosts.
What exactly is going on?
Thinking wildly, I finally reached the other side.As soon as I landed, my legs went limp and I fell directly to the ground.
Untiing the safety rope on my body, I stood on the opposite bank, a little confused.What about Lan Zhefei?What about the forsythia zombie and our luggage?
Why am I the only one here?
I looked around curiously. There are cliffs here, and a path winds into the mountain.Even if Lan Zhefei went inside for fun, he couldn't possibly bring the Forsythia's zombie and our luggage with him?
Feeling more and more confused in my heart, I walked forward cautiously, and heard a man's nasty voice not far away.
"Go! Let's go!"
This voice doesn't sound like a kind person, could it be that he got Lan Zhefei away?
I found a big rock and hid in the grass. I saw several burly men in short skirts dragging several hooded women to the shore.
The women begged them hard, speaking in dialect, I couldn't quite understand them, but I could tell they were begging them to let me go.
However, the big guys didn't respond to anyone, and slapped the begging woman hard on the face.
The woman's face was instantly swollen, and she spat out a mouthful of blood, with two broken teeth in it, which were all broken by the man.
I have always looked down on men who beat women. If Qin Yechen wasn't around, I would have rushed out to teach them a lesson!
I was hoping that Qin Yechen would come over quickly after Lianqiao took up the rope.While expecting those men to disappear soon.
However, they dragged the women to the river.
In the lead, a man seemed to be carrying something, grabbed a woman by her hair and carried her to the riverside.
I vaguely heard what they were talking about about sacrifices.
A dagger appeared in the man's hand. Regardless of the woman's pleading, he stabbed the dagger into the woman's heart.
If I hadn't covered my mouth, I would have almost yelled.
Too cruel!How can this be!
The man dug out the woman's heart, and the bright red blood dripped down his hand.
Hearing the sound of "ba da da ba da" made me startled, and I hated my incompetence so much at the moment.
The woman died and was thrown into the river by them like rags.
The man was holding the heart, murmuring words without knowing what he was talking about, but I could feel that the breath here became sinister.
Are they performing some cult ritual?
I didn't dare to make a sound, and saw that they used the same method to kill the remaining few women.
Suddenly, someone looked at me.Those eyes were cold and vicious, but filled with joy.
"Brother, there is a girl there." He said in dialect, but I don't know why, but I can understand it this time!
After hearing what he said, other people on the side looked at me one after another.I subconsciously wanted to escape, but within two steps, I felt a strangled feeling from my neck, and I was caught by those people!
"Let me go! Let me go!" I struggled desperately.Those people kicked my calves so hard that I fell to my knees on the ground without any strength in my feet.
Each of them stepped on one of my legs, grabbed my hands and pressed my shoulders, making me helpless.
"Brother, what's the matter?" the person who found me asked.
"Kill them together!" The leader said without looking back.
My heart was startled, and I was picked up by the person behind me by my hair.
There was a tearing pain in the scalp, and the man carried me all the way to the river.
"No...don't..." I begged for mercy involuntarily, but the man sneered.
He raised the dagger and slammed it into my heart regardless of my begging for mercy.
Severe pain came, almost made me faint.The dagger was wrapped with a triangular snake head imprint, piercing into my body, and the cold breath kept coming, as if throwing me into ice water.
That is definitely not an ordinary dagger!
Who are these people!
Unprecedented pain spread in my body, and my heart was taken out by him.The beating heart was in his hand, but my attention was drawn to his wrist.
There is also a triangular snake head, not like a scar, but more like a birthmark.
I was thrown into the river by him, and the intense fear came, which made me exclaim.
"Shengsheng! Shengsheng?"
I opened my eyes suddenly, and Qin Yechen's face came into my eyes, and I hugged him subconsciously.
"Help me! Save me! Qin Yechen!" My tone was trembling and frightened.
Qin Yechen hugged me tightly and kept comforting me: "It's okay, Shengsheng. Don't be afraid, I'm here."
I nodded in horror, and it took me a long time to realize that I returned to Qin Yechen's side.
"I... I'm not dead?" I was stunned.
Qin Yechen nodded: "Of course he's not dead."
I hurriedly stretched out my hand to my chest, and there was a "thumping" sound from inside, which was the feeling of my heart beating.
How is this going?
I haven't responded yet.
At this moment, Lan Zhefei's voice came from the other side: "Brother-in-law, are you alright?"
This brat wasn't here just now, what's the rush at this time!
"Where did you go just now!" I asked hurriedly.
"I've been here all this time!" Lan Zhefei was confused, "Sister, why don't you come here! I don't want to stay with a zombie! He's so ugly!"
I believe that Lan Zhefei will not run around casually.He looks like a fool, but he is not an unreliable person.He was not there just now, and I was more worried that he was also taken away.
"Sister Xia Sheng, what happened just now? Why did you faint?" Lian Qiao asked puzzled.
I remember being heart-gouged to death...
What's happening here?
Seeing that I was confused, Qin Yechen explained: "Zhefei saw that no one had passed, so he called us. Lianqiao and I pulled the rope back and found you fainted on the cableway."
How could I faint?
My cheek felt a little uncomfortable, I rubbed against Qin Yechen's body, and suddenly saw light blood stains.
I remember being attacked by something in the ropeway!Is the face hurt?
I hurriedly reached out and touched it, and sure enough there were scars and pain.
Will it be disfigured...
I suddenly became unhappy.
Qin Yechen held my hand: "It's okay, I will give you good medicine and you will heal."
He took out the medicine bottle and poured it for a while before some ointment came out.The bottle of medicine is probably almost used up.
After taking the medicine, the pain on the cheek disappeared quickly.I looked at Lianqiao, and told her and Qin Yechen what I just saw.
Qin Yechen frowned after hearing this: "I've heard that in some places women are sacrificed to river gods to pray for safety. Is there a similar custom here?" He asked Lianqiao.
Forsythia shook her head.
I asked again: "Then what does the triangular snake head here represent?"
"That was the original sign of the village, but I don't know why, so I didn't use it." Lian Qiao said.
"How long ago was it still in use?" I asked again.
"Many years ago...it's no longer needed since my grandfather's generation. I've read about it in books."
A guess came to my mind...
"Lianqiao, what clothes do you all wear in the village?" I asked.
"Young people wear the same clothes as people outside. Only those like my grandfather wear gowns." She said as she took out her phone and showed me a photo inside.
It was an old man with a slightly stooped back, but his eyes were piercing, and he was in good spirits.
He was dressed in blue and black, but not in the same style as the ones I had just met.
I remember that the women I saw at that time also wore different clothes from mine.At that time, I thought it was the national costume here, but after looking at the photos of Lianqiao's other girls on her mobile phone, I found that the clothes were different.
"Qin Yechen... Do you think I saw someone's memory again? Just like when I was in the hospital before?" I asked.
"It's possible." He looked towards the canyon.The thick fog had cleared a lot, and Lan Zhefei could be vaguely seen on the opposite bank.
"You go there first, I'll take Shengsheng there later." Qin Yechen said to Lianqiao.
After Lianqiao taught us how to help the rope, she went over first.After reaching the opposite bank safely, Qin Yechen stepped forward to take the rope.
While collecting, he said to me in a low voice: "I'm afraid the village is not peaceful."
"What's wrong?" I remembered the picture I just saw again.
"When you passed by, I felt a strong resentment." Qin Yechen said in a deep voice.
He just deliberately pushed Lian Qiao away, so he let her go first.
"If it was like what I saw, if the heart was cut to death, the resentment would indeed be heavy. Moreover, they killed more than one girl...it's too cruel..."
"Anyway, after entering the village, be careful in everything. Shengsheng, don't trust anyone there easily." Qin Yechen urged me emphatically.
I nodded.
The ropes have all been retracted, and he tied me a safety rope and carried me on his back.
"Hold me tight," he said.
I nodded, he held the handle of the pulley, kicked his legs, and we slid towards the opposite bank together.
The wind roared from above the canyon, and that familiar feeling came again.
"Here we come!" I whispered to Qin Yechen.
Qin Yechen protected me with his yin energy that had not recovered much, and the invisible aura surged in, blocked by his yin energy.
"Go away!" Qin Yechen shouted lowly, and the body aura around him exploded, shaking off those uncomfortable feelings that made me.
In a trance, I heard the screams of many women crying.Could they be the women whose hearts were cut open?
Qin Yechen took me to the other side without any danger, and the two of them tacitly agreed that neither of them said what happened just now, but just told Lan Zhefei what happened to me when I was alone, implying that he should be careful after entering.
But this kid has a big heart, relying on his own view of emptiness to back him up, he doesn't know if he understands Qin Yechen and I's painstaking efforts.
Because Lan Zhefei was bored waiting, he had already hung all our luggage on the zombie Lianqiao, and I was too lazy to carry it.
Seeing the zombie bouncing around with a series of luggage hanging on it, I felt a sense of joy.
I was about to follow Lianqiao into the mountain when Qin Yechen suddenly walked up to me and squatted down.
"What are you doing?" I don't understand.
"Carry you into the mountains. I promise you." He said.I thought about it, that's exactly what I said when he gave me the medicine that day.
If he doesn't mention it, I'll forget it.
The mountain road here is very difficult to walk, and I almost fell when I just took two steps.At this time, he was no longer pretentious, jumped up and lay down on Qin Yechen's back, enjoying it with peace of mind.
"Lianqiao, the bridge has not been repaired because I was afraid that the zombies in the village would run out and scare people?" I asked curiously.
Lian Qiao smiled and shook her head: "Sister Xia Sheng, you're talking the wrong way. The bridge is not built to prevent outsiders from entering."
"Prevent the exorcism technique from leaking?"
"Almost. However, in the eyes of many people, exorcising corpses is not considered the right way, so grandpa and the others don't want to be exposed to the public eye, so as not to break the inheritance." Lian Qiao said with some regret.
Some things can only be passed on if they are placed in the sun, and some things can only be carried forward where others cannot see them.
Along the way, I feel my spirit is getting better.The same goes for Qin Yechen.
Lan Zhefei, on the other hand, looked sleepy.
"It's hard to breathe...the breath of zombies is so heavy..." He seemed to have lost half of his life, "I'm a Taoist, why did I come here..."
"Aren't you acclimatized?" I remembered that I brought some medicine, and I'll find out if there's anything I can give him.
"There is some dissatisfaction with the environment, but it is more because he is a Taoist and is not used to this place. Sister Xia Sheng, look at the eldest brother-in-law, the spirit is very good! The closer you are to our village, the more spirited the zombies are!" Lian Qiao laughed. .
Then why am I feeling refreshed?
During the speech, he had already reached the gate of the stockade.This is a typical village in Western Hunan, where buildings on stilts stand row upon row, and people come and go.
Lian Qiao happily ran in to say hello to everyone, uncles, aunts and aunts yelled a lot, and the four of us stood at the door in a daze.
We waited until she finished greeting people before thinking of taking us in.
The houses here are all similar in appearance, and the people in the village looked at us strangely, probably they all saw that Qin Yechen was a zombie.
Forsythia took us to her grandfather's house.
"Grandpa, look at you! The corpse king! The corpse king I wrote to you last time!" Mentioning this, Lian Qiao became excited.
Her grandfather is an old man who looks a bit old-fashioned. He stroked his goatee and walked around us three times, carefully looking at us for a long time before he said: "It can't be saved."
My heart sank: "How could it not be saved?"
"Refining the corpse king is an irreversible process, if it can't be saved, it can't be saved." The old man's words were very unreasonable.
Qin Yechen and I looked at each other, not wanting to give up, and said again: "As long as you help us, no matter what the conditions are, as long as we can afford it, it's fine!"
"It's not a matter of conditions or conditions, it's that there is no way around it!" the old man said coldly.
"Just try..."
"Shengsheng, forget it." Qin Yechen interrupted me suddenly, "You don't need to ask them." His complexion was not very good, and he shook his head at me.
He has always been proud and arrogant. Seeing me beg the old man again and again, I am afraid that he has already felt uncomfortable.
Qin Yechen pulled me around and left, Lan Zhefei followed, muttering about the old man's indifference.
After taking two steps, Lian Qiao also chased after her: "Sister Xia Sheng, eldest brother-in-law! I'm sorry, I don't know that even my grandfather can't help..."
I sighed, not knowing what to say.
"It's getting dark, sister Xia Sheng, you should stay at my house tonight!" Lian Qiao said again.
Qin Yechen didn't want to stay any longer, but he looked at me and agreed.
Few outsiders come in the village, so there are no guest rooms.Forsythia had only one spare room in her house, the three of us shared one.
I slept on the bed, Qin Yechen and Lan Zhefei were on the floor.
Lying in bed at night, I don't know if it's because I haven't eaten dinner, I'm a little hungry, and I'm extremely thirsty.
"Brother-in-law... Do you really want to be the corpse king in the future?" Lan Zhefei's voice came muffled, and he must have been very unhappy.
Qin Yechen didn't make a sound, probably because he was afraid of making me more discouraged.
"Then sister Xia Sheng is going to be a widow..." Lan Zhefei's frustrated voice came again, and he didn't know whether this kid really felt sorry for me or poked my wound on purpose.
"Go to sleep." Qin Yechen gave him a low voice with a little displeasure.
Lan Zhefei curled his lips and lay down on the bed.My stomach suddenly made a "gurgling" sound, and Lan Zhefei was taken aback when he heard it: "Sister Xia Sheng, are you hungry?"
I nodded embarrassedly.In fact, I have no appetite at all, but I don't know why I am hungry.
"You haven't eaten all day, eat something." Qin Yechen stood up and took out the instant noodles in his backpack: "Do you want to eat this?"
I shook my head: "I don't want to eat..." But my stomach grunted again.
"Just eat it! I want a cup too!" Lan Zhefei got up and went to Qin Yechen's side, and also got out a small bowl of instant noodles.
There was hot water in the room, Lan Zhefei finished soaking the noodles, and handed the paper bowl to me.I smelled the meat, and my stomach was even more hungry.
"Sister Xia Sheng?" Seeing that I hadn't answered the phone, Lan Zhefei called me, put the paper bowl between my nose, and let me smell the instant noodles on purpose.
But...my attention was on his wrist.
"Guru..."
My stomach is very hungry and my throat is very thirsty.Looking at Lan Zhefei's white wrist, the tempting fragrance keeps coming, I subconsciously want to bite it down!
"Shengsheng!" Qin Yechen called out to me anxiously, and grabbed my cheek, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
Lan Zhefei hid aside with two bowls of instant noodles in his arms, with a shocked expression on his face: "Sister, why did you bite me!"
I don't know either...it's just that I'm so hungry and want to eat...
Qin Yechen lifted my chin up a bit, looked at my mouth carefully, and his face suddenly sank.
Lan Zhefei stepped forward curiously, following his gaze, he was also stunned.
"Swollen... is it..." I asked vaguely, and slapped Qin Yechen's hand pinching my face away.
I held my cheeks, feeling that he was pinching sore there.
Qin Yechen's face was full of worry, Lan Zhefei sighed, took out my mirror from my bag, and handed it to me: "Look for yourself."
I took a picture, and there was nothing unusual about me in the mirror, and my face was a little paler than before.
"Open your mouth and look." Lan Zhefei reminded.
I opened my mouth, and suddenly I was taken aback, and the tiger teeth actually grew a little bit longer than the other teeth.
I unconsciously focused on the growing canine teeth, and subconsciously wanted to stretch them, but the canine teeth really grew!
I threw away the mirror in shock, and looked at Qin Yechen: "I...how could I be like this? What's going on?"
Lan Zhefei covered his face: "If I'm not mistaken... Miss Xia Sheng, you've been poisoned by a corpse..." As he spoke, he looked at Qin Yechen, and his face became even worse: "Besides, it's probably the corpse poison of my elder brother-in-law... "
Didn't you say that you will be poisoned if you have to have sex?We haven't even played with each other lately!How did I get poisoned!
Perhaps seeing my doubts, Qin Yechen said in a deep voice, "Probably because I lost control and injured you that night."
"But it's been several days, why are there problems now?" I don't believe it!
"The food in the inn is glutinous rice, and glutinous rice can curb the poison of the corpse. If you haven't eaten glutinous rice for the past two days, the poison of the corpse will break out." Qin Yechen said.
"Is that helpful?" I asked hurriedly.
Lan Zhefei cried and said with a mournful face: "It's better to find out that there is still salvation, and now so many days have passed... Moreover, it is the corpse poison of the corpse king..."
(End of this chapter)
Although Qin Yechen was seriously injured because of his thunder-inducing yellow talisman, in the final analysis, what Uncle Chu Qi did was right.Moreover, he sent such precious plant ash later, I have to thank him very much.
"Can you make copper coin swords?" I asked Lan Zhefei.
Lan Zhefei shook his head: "Mine are all made for me by my senior... It's so annoying to do this!"
Just when he was a little disappointed, a voice came from behind: "I will."
I raised my head in surprise, and saw that Qin Yechen had opened his eyes.
"How are you feeling?" I asked quickly.
"It's good." He was still a little puzzled, and his eyes unconsciously fell on the urn containing plant ashes.
Lan Zhefei told him how Uncle Chu Qi sent this thing, and I helped him sit up.
The place on his body filled with plant ash has gradually healed, and the plant ash seems to have become a part of his body.
The yin and corpse qi in my body also gradually became normal, and my hanging heart finally let go.
Qin Yechen glanced at the five emperors' money beside him, and asked me, "Do you want to make a copper coin sword?"
I nodded: "How can I say that Uncle Chu Qi also helped us, and now the magic weapon is broken, I want to help him fix it. You teach me, I will do it!"
Qin Yechen nodded slightly, then asked Lan Zhefei, "Is there any cinnabar thread?"
Lan Zhefei immediately took out a large bundle from his bag.
A copper coin sword requires a specific amount of five emperor coins.Lan Zhefei counted, but five pieces were still missing.Fortunately, he had a spare, ten thousand and one, and sold me five.
"Proficient!" I gritted my teeth.
Lan Zhefei also had an expression on his face that he took advantage of me: "This is blessed by the temple master! I only have seven! Ten thousand and eleven are still a friendship price!"
All right, all right, the farts of their temple masters are delicious.
The reason why the Copper Coin Sword is so powerful is due to two other factors besides the mana of the sword wielder.
One is that the material of the five emperors' money and the cinnabar thread used to make the sword must be the best, and the other is that in the process of making the sword, powerful formations are constantly engraved on the sword.
Uncle Chuqi's five emperors' money already had formations, and the cinnabar line is pure and empty, so there is no need to say more.
But I don't know how to engrave the formation when making the sword.Fortunately, Qin Yechen understood everything.
Although he couldn't touch the five emperors' money and the cinnabar line, he taught me hand in hand and told me every detail of how to draw the formation.
During this time, Lan Zhefei, that stinky and shameless person, kept stealing his teacher.
I have been able to do things since I was a child, and the formations on the copper coin sword are outlined with cinnabar lines.I studied all night, and learned all the above nine formations the next morning.
Lianqiao said that Uncle Chu Qi's whereabouts are uncertain, and I was afraid that he would leave at any time, so I didn't have time to sleep, so I helped him make the copper coin sword.
It was still foggy outside today, Qin Yechen rested for a day and a night, and the situation has improved a lot.We are not in a hurry to enter the stockade.
Lian Qiao asked the shopkeeper about it, and found out that Uncle Chu Qi was still there.
Qin Yechen and I knocked on Uncle Chu Qi's room door.
He came to the door and was a little surprised to see us.
"Uncle Chuqi, thank you for helping us last time. Your copper coin sword is broken. I picked up those five emperor coins and remade it for you! The formation above was taught to me by Qin Yechen He taught it all! He is also very grateful for your help!"
I'm emphasizing the last three sentences, lest Uncle Chu Qi forget Qin Yechen's contribution.Qin Yechen was a little dissatisfied, he was gouged out by my eyes, but he could only keep silent.
Uncle Chu Qi was still in surprise, I lifted the red cloth wrapped around the copper coin sword a little, revealing the sword body inside: "Uncle Chu Qi, are you satisfied?"
"Satisfied!" He smiled, with a very happy smile on his old-fashioned face.
He took it and opened it for a second, looking at it with an even more surprised expression.
It is estimated that the five five emperor coins were found not to be his own.
I explained: "I can't find the other five. Those five are from the Qingxu Temple. The quality is not as good as yours, okay..."
"No! Even better than my original one." He said, and looked at Qin Yechen again: "How do you know these formations?"
"I learned it before I was alive." Qin Yechen said lightly.
"These are all lost now...you...were you also a member of the Taoist sect?"
"No." Qin Yechen denied it dryly.
Uncle Chu Qi stared at him inquisitively. Qin Yechen never liked being stared at, and was already a little dissatisfied.
I was afraid that the two of us would fight again, so after saying goodbye to Uncle Chu Qi, I hurriedly dragged Qin Yechen away.
Back in the room, Qin Yechen said, "Stay away from that person in the future!" with a sour tone.
"What's the matter?" I think Uncle Chu Qi is not bad except he is a bit fierce!
Qin Yechen looked at me with an expression of not wanting to speak.
Lan Zhefei, who was lying on the floor playing with his mobile phone, heard a smile: "Brother-in-law is jealous! Sister Xia Sheng, you are working tirelessly to make things for a man, what a big pot of old vinegar!"
Qin Yechen knows my purpose of making the copper coin sword, so he won't be jealous of such a thing.
I glanced at Lan Zhefei, who was deliberately provoking trouble, but Qin Yechen behind him said: "He looks at you differently."
"What's the difference?" I only know that sometimes Uncle Chu Qi looks at me more fiercely than at Forsythia.
Qin Yechen didn't want to talk to me anymore, Lan Zhefei laughed, mocking his jealousy.
I had a good night's sleep and woke up at noon the next day.
Qin Yechen pulled me out of bed, and the two of us were about to go downstairs for dinner, but his body swayed and he almost fell down.
I quickly supported him: "What's wrong?"
"It seems that there is something wrong with the wound." He frowned.
I was startled, and quickly found the scissors to cut off the bandage on his wound, only to find that the wound filled with plant ash was empty!
"How could this be?" I was stunned, "Could it be that those plant ashes are fake?"
Qin Yechen shook his head: "It should be true. Yesterday, I could indeed feel the effect of plant ash."
I didn't understand, so I went downstairs and called Lan Zhefei and Lianqiao up who were eating.
Lian Qiao looked at the wound and said uncertainly: "For ordinary zombies, these are enough. The eldest brother-in-law is the corpse king, will it be different? Otherwise, let me ask Uncle Chu Qi?"
Lian Qiao went out as she said, and after a while she came back dejectedly: "Uncle Chu Qi left before the fog started."
So what to do?The fog outside has not cleared yet!
Qin Yechen thought about the jar of plant ashes and said, "Use this again."
This thing is indeed useful to him, but I don't know why it all disappeared today, and the wound hasn't healed.
There is no other way, and I can only do this.Just like that night, plant ash was filled into his wound.
Only in this way, the remaining half of the can of plant ash was used up.
Tomorrow, we will enter the stockade no matter what.
After the fog, it's not that you can't drive, but it's very easy to get lost in the mountains.It takes a day to walk from the inn to the stockade.
Depart early in the morning and arrive in the evening, so we can't wait for the fog to clear at noon before we can go on our way.If you walk on the mountain road at night, it is easy to encounter powerful things.
The four of them deliberated, and they all felt that they would rather travel in foggy days than travel at night.
After I went back and packed my luggage, I suddenly remembered that I hadn't seen Bu Rui in the past two days.
It's not that I'm just looking for trouble, it's just that I have seen the scattered people living in this inn during meals, but Bu Rui has never appeared.
Did Qin Yechen hide from us on purpose after getting angry?
It must be so!
I'm glad I didn't see her.
I slept nervously all night, and woke up the next morning, and it was still foggy.Forsythia said that it was an unfortunate time for us to come, and these two months happened to be the season of frequent fog.
I checked Qin Yechen's wound, and the ash inside was indeed much less than last night.Qin Yechen's mana recovered a lot, as if he had absorbed the ashes.
The plant ash applied at one time is only enough to last for two days, so I must enter the stockade today.
When I went to the front desk to pay the bill, looking at the bill like water, I felt that I had to dig another locust tree and sell it.
Four people were tied together with ropes, Lianqiao was the first, Lan Zhefei was the second, I was the third, and Qin Yechen was the rear.
Forsythia still held a rope in her hand, which was held around her zombie waist.
I know that it is not easy for a corpse exorcist to raise a zombie that is obedient and able to fight, so even if the zombie got out of control that night, Lianqiao was still unwilling to kill her own zombie unless it was absolutely necessary.
Now only one of the three zombies is left, Lian Qiao feels very uncomfortable.
Qin Yechen broke one of her zombies, and I'm also quite embarrassed.Fortunately, Qin Yechen said that he had a way to find another zombie for Lianqiao to make up for her.
The zombies took the lead, Lianqiao knew the way, Lan Zhefei took the compass to see if he was going in the wrong direction, and Qin Yechen and I were in the rear.
A group of people walked to a large canyon without any risk and stopped.
The white mist has not dissipated. Even if I can't see it, I can still hear the roaring river rushing by below the canyon.
"Where is the bridge?" I asked Forsythia.
Forsythia took the fog lamp in her hand and shone not far away.In the dense fog, a rope dangled above the river.
Lan Zhefei was speechless: "Isn't it because you want us to walk a high-altitude tightrope?"
"It's swinging on the swing!" Lian Qiao smiled.
I illuminated it with a fog lamp, and the place where the light could reach was a vast expanse of whiteness, and I couldn't see anything.I don't know how wide this canyon is!
I'm sure I didn't have such a big arm to shake it...
Let alone me, Lan Zhefei might not even be able to pass by!
"Is this really the only way to get over it?" I asked Forsythia once, and the little girl nodded.
Lan Zhefei pointed at her silly zombie and asked again: "Then how can this one get through? Its fingers can't be bent, so it won't get through!"
"Just tie it up. Not to mention zombies, cattle and sheep are all transported in like this."
"Is this rope bearable?" I touched the thick rope on the baby's arm, I don't know what it was made of, it was very slippery and cold.
"No, we have been using it for hundreds of years." Lian Qiao was full of confidence.
Because of the three hundred years, my heart is even more worried.
Lianqiao said as she untied the rope on her body, and directed her zombies to come to the starting point of the high-altitude cableway.
"Zhe Fei, you go there first, otherwise no one will untie the rope for the zombie in a while," she said.
Lan Zhefei reluctantly stood up from behind me: "Brother-in-law, go."
"I want to bring Shengsheng." Qin Yechen said.
"It's okay, I won't fall!" Lian Qiao pulled him over, and tied the safety rope around his waist.
Lan Zhefei clenched the handle of the pulley, with an expression on his face that was about to cry: "Sister Xia Sheng, if I die, please remember to ask the temple master to summon my soul...I haven't honored his old man well yet..."
"Bah bah bah! Crow's mouth! Lianqiao is not afraid of a little girl, what are you afraid of, a man! Don't be afraid!" I cheered him up.
Unexpectedly, Lan Zhefei's face became even more mournful: "Brother, they all raised me as a younger sister!"
Lian Qiao chuckled lightly when she heard the words: "Hurry up!"
With a command, she pushed behind Lan Zhefei forcefully, and Lan Zhefei's body slid along the cableway and slid towards the opposite bank under the effect of gravity.
In the valley, apart from the sound of the Nu River slapping against the shore, the only sound was Lan Zhefei's scream that resounded through the sky.
That voice was shrill, even more miserable than the ape's voice in Baidi City, it probably frightened Lan Zhefei's fragile heart.
It can be seen from Lan Zhefei's ability to be a Taoist priest who catches ghosts that he is actually quite courageous.But at this moment, firstly, it was intentional, and secondly, I believe it was the first time he experienced such a zipline, and he was really scared.
The greatest fear of human beings comes from the fear of the unknown.
For a long time, the sound over there disappeared.I couldn't see the situation on the other side, but Lianqiao reckoned that the time was almost up, so she retracted the rope.
She found another piece of rope, tied the zombie up, and hung it on the pulley of the rope like a sandbag.
Push hard, and the zombie is pushed over.
Guessing that the time is about the same, after Lan Zhefei untied his body at the other end, Lianqiao retracted the rope again.
"Sister Xia Sheng or eldest brother-in-law next?" Lian Qiao asked.
Qin Yechen could see my fear and said, "I'm with Shengsheng."
Lianqiao was a little embarrassed: "I don't know if this rope can hold it..."
Yes, the ropes have been used for hundreds of years.
"It's okay, I'll go there by myself. Anyway, there is a safety rope, so I won't fall." While comforting Qin Yechen, I also comforted myself in the same way.
Qin Yechen could have taken me there, but his injuries have not healed, and it would be dangerous to take me across such a wide canyon, so we had to use this method.
Lianqiao helped me fasten the safety rope, Qin Yechen told me: "Persist on and you will reach the other side, don't let go."
"There is a safety rope, it won't fall!" I twisted my waist and showed Qin Yechen the safety rope behind me.
Qin Yechen felt a little helpless: "I'm worried that you are afraid."
Also, when I was hung in the middle of the canyon, I might be scared to cry.
I nodded, and after clenching the handle again and again, Forsythia pushed me over.
"Don't look down! Don't think about it!"
Qin Yechen's repeated instructions came from behind me, even if I couldn't see his expression at the moment, I could still think of his worry and concern.
Before I knew it, I had reached this point with him.There is still some joy in my heart.
The speed of the rope was much faster than I expected, and the thick white mist stagnated in the valley. At this moment, my intrusion seemed to directly split the white mist.
The wind howled and blew across my cheeks, like a knife, which actually made me feel very painful.
My eyelashes became wet with white mist, making my vision a little blurred.I held the handle with both hands and not only moved it, but I had to endure it first, and then wipe it when it hit the ground.
However, halfway through the walk, my face turned cold, as if I had been touched by something.
I was stunned, there wouldn't be anything in this white mist, right?Just thinking about it, the same touch came from the other cheek.
I almost lost the pulley handle in my hand with a shudder!
There is something in the white mist!
Did Lan Zhe meet him when he flew over?
I was thinking wildly, when someone twisted my waist suddenly.The unexpected pain came, and I subconsciously wanted to avoid it. I twisted my body, and there was a sharp pain in my wrist, which made me lose any strength.
My hand slipped from my palm, and I screamed subconsciously, being caught by the safety rope on my back and hanging in the air.
Slightly relieved, I tried to grab the safety rope to re-hold the handle of the pulley.
This posture is very difficult, and I worked hard for a long time before I hooked the handle.However, when the hand slipped, the handle actually slipped away!
It was moved away!
I was also extremely annoyed at the moment, ignoring the fear in my heart, and angrily scolded: "Who is making trouble!"
"Hmph." A disdainful sneer came from a distance, which was still familiar.
There is a white mist everywhere I look, and I can't see who is there.However, the pain in my cheek continued to intensify, making me very uncomfortable.
Suddenly, a woman's face with bloody facial features protruded from the white mist, which shocked me a lot.
I stepped back, and the woman's face kept coming towards me.Angrily, I raised my foot to face that face and kicked it up. The woman let out a mournful howl and disappeared into the white mist.
I breathed a sigh of relief, and held the handle of the pulley with the other hand, and continued to slide forward.
In the white mist, a woman's face kept appearing.They pulled me, trying to pull me into it. I couldn't dodge in time, and many parts of my body were scratched by those women.
They stared at me like lingering ghosts, but the strange thing was that I couldn't feel the different ghosts.
What exactly is going on?
Thinking wildly, I finally reached the other side.As soon as I landed, my legs went limp and I fell directly to the ground.
Untiing the safety rope on my body, I stood on the opposite bank, a little confused.What about Lan Zhefei?What about the forsythia zombie and our luggage?
Why am I the only one here?
I looked around curiously. There are cliffs here, and a path winds into the mountain.Even if Lan Zhefei went inside for fun, he couldn't possibly bring the Forsythia's zombie and our luggage with him?
Feeling more and more confused in my heart, I walked forward cautiously, and heard a man's nasty voice not far away.
"Go! Let's go!"
This voice doesn't sound like a kind person, could it be that he got Lan Zhefei away?
I found a big rock and hid in the grass. I saw several burly men in short skirts dragging several hooded women to the shore.
The women begged them hard, speaking in dialect, I couldn't quite understand them, but I could tell they were begging them to let me go.
However, the big guys didn't respond to anyone, and slapped the begging woman hard on the face.
The woman's face was instantly swollen, and she spat out a mouthful of blood, with two broken teeth in it, which were all broken by the man.
I have always looked down on men who beat women. If Qin Yechen wasn't around, I would have rushed out to teach them a lesson!
I was hoping that Qin Yechen would come over quickly after Lianqiao took up the rope.While expecting those men to disappear soon.
However, they dragged the women to the river.
In the lead, a man seemed to be carrying something, grabbed a woman by her hair and carried her to the riverside.
I vaguely heard what they were talking about about sacrifices.
A dagger appeared in the man's hand. Regardless of the woman's pleading, he stabbed the dagger into the woman's heart.
If I hadn't covered my mouth, I would have almost yelled.
Too cruel!How can this be!
The man dug out the woman's heart, and the bright red blood dripped down his hand.
Hearing the sound of "ba da da ba da" made me startled, and I hated my incompetence so much at the moment.
The woman died and was thrown into the river by them like rags.
The man was holding the heart, murmuring words without knowing what he was talking about, but I could feel that the breath here became sinister.
Are they performing some cult ritual?
I didn't dare to make a sound, and saw that they used the same method to kill the remaining few women.
Suddenly, someone looked at me.Those eyes were cold and vicious, but filled with joy.
"Brother, there is a girl there." He said in dialect, but I don't know why, but I can understand it this time!
After hearing what he said, other people on the side looked at me one after another.I subconsciously wanted to escape, but within two steps, I felt a strangled feeling from my neck, and I was caught by those people!
"Let me go! Let me go!" I struggled desperately.Those people kicked my calves so hard that I fell to my knees on the ground without any strength in my feet.
Each of them stepped on one of my legs, grabbed my hands and pressed my shoulders, making me helpless.
"Brother, what's the matter?" the person who found me asked.
"Kill them together!" The leader said without looking back.
My heart was startled, and I was picked up by the person behind me by my hair.
There was a tearing pain in the scalp, and the man carried me all the way to the river.
"No...don't..." I begged for mercy involuntarily, but the man sneered.
He raised the dagger and slammed it into my heart regardless of my begging for mercy.
Severe pain came, almost made me faint.The dagger was wrapped with a triangular snake head imprint, piercing into my body, and the cold breath kept coming, as if throwing me into ice water.
That is definitely not an ordinary dagger!
Who are these people!
Unprecedented pain spread in my body, and my heart was taken out by him.The beating heart was in his hand, but my attention was drawn to his wrist.
There is also a triangular snake head, not like a scar, but more like a birthmark.
I was thrown into the river by him, and the intense fear came, which made me exclaim.
"Shengsheng! Shengsheng?"
I opened my eyes suddenly, and Qin Yechen's face came into my eyes, and I hugged him subconsciously.
"Help me! Save me! Qin Yechen!" My tone was trembling and frightened.
Qin Yechen hugged me tightly and kept comforting me: "It's okay, Shengsheng. Don't be afraid, I'm here."
I nodded in horror, and it took me a long time to realize that I returned to Qin Yechen's side.
"I... I'm not dead?" I was stunned.
Qin Yechen nodded: "Of course he's not dead."
I hurriedly stretched out my hand to my chest, and there was a "thumping" sound from inside, which was the feeling of my heart beating.
How is this going?
I haven't responded yet.
At this moment, Lan Zhefei's voice came from the other side: "Brother-in-law, are you alright?"
This brat wasn't here just now, what's the rush at this time!
"Where did you go just now!" I asked hurriedly.
"I've been here all this time!" Lan Zhefei was confused, "Sister, why don't you come here! I don't want to stay with a zombie! He's so ugly!"
I believe that Lan Zhefei will not run around casually.He looks like a fool, but he is not an unreliable person.He was not there just now, and I was more worried that he was also taken away.
"Sister Xia Sheng, what happened just now? Why did you faint?" Lian Qiao asked puzzled.
I remember being heart-gouged to death...
What's happening here?
Seeing that I was confused, Qin Yechen explained: "Zhefei saw that no one had passed, so he called us. Lianqiao and I pulled the rope back and found you fainted on the cableway."
How could I faint?
My cheek felt a little uncomfortable, I rubbed against Qin Yechen's body, and suddenly saw light blood stains.
I remember being attacked by something in the ropeway!Is the face hurt?
I hurriedly reached out and touched it, and sure enough there were scars and pain.
Will it be disfigured...
I suddenly became unhappy.
Qin Yechen held my hand: "It's okay, I will give you good medicine and you will heal."
He took out the medicine bottle and poured it for a while before some ointment came out.The bottle of medicine is probably almost used up.
After taking the medicine, the pain on the cheek disappeared quickly.I looked at Lianqiao, and told her and Qin Yechen what I just saw.
Qin Yechen frowned after hearing this: "I've heard that in some places women are sacrificed to river gods to pray for safety. Is there a similar custom here?" He asked Lianqiao.
Forsythia shook her head.
I asked again: "Then what does the triangular snake head here represent?"
"That was the original sign of the village, but I don't know why, so I didn't use it." Lian Qiao said.
"How long ago was it still in use?" I asked again.
"Many years ago...it's no longer needed since my grandfather's generation. I've read about it in books."
A guess came to my mind...
"Lianqiao, what clothes do you all wear in the village?" I asked.
"Young people wear the same clothes as people outside. Only those like my grandfather wear gowns." She said as she took out her phone and showed me a photo inside.
It was an old man with a slightly stooped back, but his eyes were piercing, and he was in good spirits.
He was dressed in blue and black, but not in the same style as the ones I had just met.
I remember that the women I saw at that time also wore different clothes from mine.At that time, I thought it was the national costume here, but after looking at the photos of Lianqiao's other girls on her mobile phone, I found that the clothes were different.
"Qin Yechen... Do you think I saw someone's memory again? Just like when I was in the hospital before?" I asked.
"It's possible." He looked towards the canyon.The thick fog had cleared a lot, and Lan Zhefei could be vaguely seen on the opposite bank.
"You go there first, I'll take Shengsheng there later." Qin Yechen said to Lianqiao.
After Lianqiao taught us how to help the rope, she went over first.After reaching the opposite bank safely, Qin Yechen stepped forward to take the rope.
While collecting, he said to me in a low voice: "I'm afraid the village is not peaceful."
"What's wrong?" I remembered the picture I just saw again.
"When you passed by, I felt a strong resentment." Qin Yechen said in a deep voice.
He just deliberately pushed Lian Qiao away, so he let her go first.
"If it was like what I saw, if the heart was cut to death, the resentment would indeed be heavy. Moreover, they killed more than one girl...it's too cruel..."
"Anyway, after entering the village, be careful in everything. Shengsheng, don't trust anyone there easily." Qin Yechen urged me emphatically.
I nodded.
The ropes have all been retracted, and he tied me a safety rope and carried me on his back.
"Hold me tight," he said.
I nodded, he held the handle of the pulley, kicked his legs, and we slid towards the opposite bank together.
The wind roared from above the canyon, and that familiar feeling came again.
"Here we come!" I whispered to Qin Yechen.
Qin Yechen protected me with his yin energy that had not recovered much, and the invisible aura surged in, blocked by his yin energy.
"Go away!" Qin Yechen shouted lowly, and the body aura around him exploded, shaking off those uncomfortable feelings that made me.
In a trance, I heard the screams of many women crying.Could they be the women whose hearts were cut open?
Qin Yechen took me to the other side without any danger, and the two of them tacitly agreed that neither of them said what happened just now, but just told Lan Zhefei what happened to me when I was alone, implying that he should be careful after entering.
But this kid has a big heart, relying on his own view of emptiness to back him up, he doesn't know if he understands Qin Yechen and I's painstaking efforts.
Because Lan Zhefei was bored waiting, he had already hung all our luggage on the zombie Lianqiao, and I was too lazy to carry it.
Seeing the zombie bouncing around with a series of luggage hanging on it, I felt a sense of joy.
I was about to follow Lianqiao into the mountain when Qin Yechen suddenly walked up to me and squatted down.
"What are you doing?" I don't understand.
"Carry you into the mountains. I promise you." He said.I thought about it, that's exactly what I said when he gave me the medicine that day.
If he doesn't mention it, I'll forget it.
The mountain road here is very difficult to walk, and I almost fell when I just took two steps.At this time, he was no longer pretentious, jumped up and lay down on Qin Yechen's back, enjoying it with peace of mind.
"Lianqiao, the bridge has not been repaired because I was afraid that the zombies in the village would run out and scare people?" I asked curiously.
Lian Qiao smiled and shook her head: "Sister Xia Sheng, you're talking the wrong way. The bridge is not built to prevent outsiders from entering."
"Prevent the exorcism technique from leaking?"
"Almost. However, in the eyes of many people, exorcising corpses is not considered the right way, so grandpa and the others don't want to be exposed to the public eye, so as not to break the inheritance." Lian Qiao said with some regret.
Some things can only be passed on if they are placed in the sun, and some things can only be carried forward where others cannot see them.
Along the way, I feel my spirit is getting better.The same goes for Qin Yechen.
Lan Zhefei, on the other hand, looked sleepy.
"It's hard to breathe...the breath of zombies is so heavy..." He seemed to have lost half of his life, "I'm a Taoist, why did I come here..."
"Aren't you acclimatized?" I remembered that I brought some medicine, and I'll find out if there's anything I can give him.
"There is some dissatisfaction with the environment, but it is more because he is a Taoist and is not used to this place. Sister Xia Sheng, look at the eldest brother-in-law, the spirit is very good! The closer you are to our village, the more spirited the zombies are!" Lian Qiao laughed. .
Then why am I feeling refreshed?
During the speech, he had already reached the gate of the stockade.This is a typical village in Western Hunan, where buildings on stilts stand row upon row, and people come and go.
Lian Qiao happily ran in to say hello to everyone, uncles, aunts and aunts yelled a lot, and the four of us stood at the door in a daze.
We waited until she finished greeting people before thinking of taking us in.
The houses here are all similar in appearance, and the people in the village looked at us strangely, probably they all saw that Qin Yechen was a zombie.
Forsythia took us to her grandfather's house.
"Grandpa, look at you! The corpse king! The corpse king I wrote to you last time!" Mentioning this, Lian Qiao became excited.
Her grandfather is an old man who looks a bit old-fashioned. He stroked his goatee and walked around us three times, carefully looking at us for a long time before he said: "It can't be saved."
My heart sank: "How could it not be saved?"
"Refining the corpse king is an irreversible process, if it can't be saved, it can't be saved." The old man's words were very unreasonable.
Qin Yechen and I looked at each other, not wanting to give up, and said again: "As long as you help us, no matter what the conditions are, as long as we can afford it, it's fine!"
"It's not a matter of conditions or conditions, it's that there is no way around it!" the old man said coldly.
"Just try..."
"Shengsheng, forget it." Qin Yechen interrupted me suddenly, "You don't need to ask them." His complexion was not very good, and he shook his head at me.
He has always been proud and arrogant. Seeing me beg the old man again and again, I am afraid that he has already felt uncomfortable.
Qin Yechen pulled me around and left, Lan Zhefei followed, muttering about the old man's indifference.
After taking two steps, Lian Qiao also chased after her: "Sister Xia Sheng, eldest brother-in-law! I'm sorry, I don't know that even my grandfather can't help..."
I sighed, not knowing what to say.
"It's getting dark, sister Xia Sheng, you should stay at my house tonight!" Lian Qiao said again.
Qin Yechen didn't want to stay any longer, but he looked at me and agreed.
Few outsiders come in the village, so there are no guest rooms.Forsythia had only one spare room in her house, the three of us shared one.
I slept on the bed, Qin Yechen and Lan Zhefei were on the floor.
Lying in bed at night, I don't know if it's because I haven't eaten dinner, I'm a little hungry, and I'm extremely thirsty.
"Brother-in-law... Do you really want to be the corpse king in the future?" Lan Zhefei's voice came muffled, and he must have been very unhappy.
Qin Yechen didn't make a sound, probably because he was afraid of making me more discouraged.
"Then sister Xia Sheng is going to be a widow..." Lan Zhefei's frustrated voice came again, and he didn't know whether this kid really felt sorry for me or poked my wound on purpose.
"Go to sleep." Qin Yechen gave him a low voice with a little displeasure.
Lan Zhefei curled his lips and lay down on the bed.My stomach suddenly made a "gurgling" sound, and Lan Zhefei was taken aback when he heard it: "Sister Xia Sheng, are you hungry?"
I nodded embarrassedly.In fact, I have no appetite at all, but I don't know why I am hungry.
"You haven't eaten all day, eat something." Qin Yechen stood up and took out the instant noodles in his backpack: "Do you want to eat this?"
I shook my head: "I don't want to eat..." But my stomach grunted again.
"Just eat it! I want a cup too!" Lan Zhefei got up and went to Qin Yechen's side, and also got out a small bowl of instant noodles.
There was hot water in the room, Lan Zhefei finished soaking the noodles, and handed the paper bowl to me.I smelled the meat, and my stomach was even more hungry.
"Sister Xia Sheng?" Seeing that I hadn't answered the phone, Lan Zhefei called me, put the paper bowl between my nose, and let me smell the instant noodles on purpose.
But...my attention was on his wrist.
"Guru..."
My stomach is very hungry and my throat is very thirsty.Looking at Lan Zhefei's white wrist, the tempting fragrance keeps coming, I subconsciously want to bite it down!
"Shengsheng!" Qin Yechen called out to me anxiously, and grabbed my cheek, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
Lan Zhefei hid aside with two bowls of instant noodles in his arms, with a shocked expression on his face: "Sister, why did you bite me!"
I don't know either...it's just that I'm so hungry and want to eat...
Qin Yechen lifted my chin up a bit, looked at my mouth carefully, and his face suddenly sank.
Lan Zhefei stepped forward curiously, following his gaze, he was also stunned.
"Swollen... is it..." I asked vaguely, and slapped Qin Yechen's hand pinching my face away.
I held my cheeks, feeling that he was pinching sore there.
Qin Yechen's face was full of worry, Lan Zhefei sighed, took out my mirror from my bag, and handed it to me: "Look for yourself."
I took a picture, and there was nothing unusual about me in the mirror, and my face was a little paler than before.
"Open your mouth and look." Lan Zhefei reminded.
I opened my mouth, and suddenly I was taken aback, and the tiger teeth actually grew a little bit longer than the other teeth.
I unconsciously focused on the growing canine teeth, and subconsciously wanted to stretch them, but the canine teeth really grew!
I threw away the mirror in shock, and looked at Qin Yechen: "I...how could I be like this? What's going on?"
Lan Zhefei covered his face: "If I'm not mistaken... Miss Xia Sheng, you've been poisoned by a corpse..." As he spoke, he looked at Qin Yechen, and his face became even worse: "Besides, it's probably the corpse poison of my elder brother-in-law... "
Didn't you say that you will be poisoned if you have to have sex?We haven't even played with each other lately!How did I get poisoned!
Perhaps seeing my doubts, Qin Yechen said in a deep voice, "Probably because I lost control and injured you that night."
"But it's been several days, why are there problems now?" I don't believe it!
"The food in the inn is glutinous rice, and glutinous rice can curb the poison of the corpse. If you haven't eaten glutinous rice for the past two days, the poison of the corpse will break out." Qin Yechen said.
"Is that helpful?" I asked hurriedly.
Lan Zhefei cried and said with a mournful face: "It's better to find out that there is still salvation, and now so many days have passed... Moreover, it is the corpse poison of the corpse king..."
