a zombie haunts me

Chapter 58 The Sentimental Zombie

The surrounding silence was a bit scary, and my whole body seemed to be shrouded in a gust of wind, which made me shrink my neck involuntarily.

I can't be defeated by difficulties, even if I haven't been able to find out the truth 20 years ago, even if I can't send back A Lang's body, even if I will die in this dark tomb...

My palms were slowly clenched, and my nails sank deep into the flesh, but I didn't feel any pain at all.

My body seemed to be frozen, and I shivered from the cold.

Soon, I got up from the ground and said to Bai Chenxu, "Let's go quickly."

Bai Chenxu nodded, picked up A Lang's body, and walked forward cautiously.

After walking not far, Bai Chenxu suddenly slowed down, and then asked me, "Actually, have you been to this cemetery once?"

My heart skipped a beat suddenly, and my steps froze inexplicably.

"how do you know?"

I looked at him in disbelief, as if he knew something.

Bai Chenxu turned around slowly, looked at me quietly, and said nothing.

I swallowed, and said with some guilt: "Well, there is one thing I haven't told you and Shijiugong. In fact, this zombie was awakened by me. I did come to this tomb, but I I fell in in a daze, I..."

Before I finished explaining, Bai Chenxu nodded clearly, "I already knew this. Master told me that zombies will only protect the person who wakes him up. If you didn't wake up this zombie, how could he risk his life?" Want to protect you too?"

"Death?"

I was stunned, the black hole full of doubts seemed to burst open in an instant, as if it was going to suck me in.

At that moment, I only felt that my heart was beating very fast, as if it was about to jump out of my throat.

I saw Bai Chenxu frowned slightly, and then said in a deep voice: "He was obviously trapped in the coffin by the master with the ink fountain thread, and he wanted to escape to save you. He knew that the master would definitely set up a net around him to catch him, but he didn't do it at all. fear."

"What did you say?"

It was as if a pair of invisible hands were holding my throat tightly. My voice was so hoarse, so hoarse that even I couldn't believe it.

"You don't think that Master really can't release the corpse's energy? The reason why Master didn't do it in front of you was because he was afraid that you would obstruct him. He said that the zombie must have sucked your Yang energy to wake up. , but if he stays by your side, once he goes mad, he will still lose control and bite you!"

As Bai Chenxu said, he sighed deeply: "Do you know that if the zombies came across glutinous rice and rooster blood when they escaped that night, they would definitely release the corpse gas in their mouths? I expected that those villagers would attack you."

My heart sank suddenly, the heartbeat stopped abruptly, and I could only hear my heavy breathing in my ears.

An inexplicable sadness welled up in my heart, corroding my already fragile soul.

I never dreamed that the nineteenth prince would have already seen everything.

At this time, Bai Chenxu took a deep look at me, with some uncertainty in his tone, he said: "Zombies are born to be afraid of Taoist priests, not to mention that my master still carries the evil-killing pill passed down by the ancestor, but he still To save you at all costs, how should I put it... He is really a sympathetic zombie, so I decided to help him!"

It suddenly occurred to me that Bai Chenxu wiped off the ink fountain line on the coffin, and put away the glutinous rice and rooster, just to save A Lang.

And this time, if Bai Chenxu hadn't proposed to help me, I think Alang would have been sent to the extreme sun by the [-]th Duke, where he would be scorched by the scorching sun every day and never be reborn.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help being moved, "Coward, thank you!"

He sniffed and said displeasedly, "Can you not call me a coward?"

I raised my eyebrows and said, "No way!"

But he suddenly came closer, his puzzled eyes were only a few feet away from me, and suddenly, he asked in a low voice: "How on earth did you give that zombie your yang energy?"

My heart was beating violently again, and my face was as red as if I had a fever.

I didn't care about 21, and walked forward, "That... I don't know either!"

Unexpectedly, Bai Chenxu ran over with A Lang on his shoulders, walked side by side with me, and said with a smile: "You must have kissed a zombie, right?"

My face turned red up to my ears, and I glared at him angrily.

Suddenly, I stepped on the air: "Ah..."

I yelled, and at the critical moment, Bai Chenxu held my hand tightly.

"No, this is... quicksand!"

He exclaimed and immediately said to me, "Little Pepper, don't move!"

I listened to his words and stopped struggling, but my legs had already sunk into the quicksand, as if some inexplicable force was pulling my legs, I felt like I was sinking, as if I had fallen into a deep swamp inside.

I looked around and found that there was a deep ditch in this place, and the ditch was full of quicksand.

Fortunately, Bai Chenxu didn't sink too deep, so he kept Ah Lang in a safe place first, then slowly pulled out one foot, then chanted some spell silently, jumped out of the quicksand, and easily crossed the quicksand ditch .

"Little Pepper, hold on!"

Bai Chenxu took out a mahogany sword about one foot long from his cloth bag, and stretched it out towards me.

"Keep your body leaning forward and make the force-bearing area as large as possible so that I can pull you over."

After Bai Chenxu finished speaking, I slowly bent down, almost lying on the ground, I felt that I was about to be swallowed by quicksand.

However, under the pull of Bai Chenxu, I slowly climbed to the shore.

When I crawled out of the quicksand ditch, I was almost exhausted.

Bai Chenxu gently patted the sand off my body, and said to me: "It seems that the map is not completely fake. The water flow pattern marked on the map, at first we thought it was a river, but now it seems that it should be this quicksand ditch !"

My hairs stood on end in an instant, and I stared at Bai Chenxu stiffly.

At that moment, a deep anxiety and fear stirred my sensitive nerves back and forth like barbs.

Could it be that my parents died in this quicksand ditch?
But soon, my rationality slowly woke me up again. If my parents died in the quicksand ditch, grandma would only think that they were missing, so how would she know that they were dead and brought something into me? What about in your body?

There was an inexplicable pain in my heart, as if something was gaining momentum, ready to rush out of the shackles in my body.

Could it be the power that has been sealed for 20 years?

Fear spread through my body at a geometric speed like a virus, and cold sweat streamed down from the top of my head and down my temples in an instant.

I suddenly discovered a terrible fact, ever since I drank A Lang's blood, I can see ghosts, but I have never seen my dead parents...

Didn't they die at all 20 years ago?

However, this is nothing more than a wild guess on my part, and I can only continue to search for answers.

I raised my stiff arms, gently wiped the cold sweat from my forehead, and said to Bai Chenxu, "From the map, how far are we from the main tomb?"

Bai Chenxu reached out and took out the map from his pocket, looked at it in the dim light, and said to me, "10 minutes at most!"

I checked the time on my phone, it was already ten fifty at this time, and midnight is the most dangerous time, I am afraid we don't have much time to delay.

"go!"

I don't care that I'm exhausted, because I know that from the moment we cross the death loop, there's no going back.

Bai Chenxu didn't hesitate at all, carried A Lang's body on his shoulders, and followed me on the road.

Perhaps, because I had a rush in my heart, all my fears were forgotten by me.

At this moment, I only have one firm belief, I must put A Lang's body back in its original place, and I must escape from here smoothly!
After 10 minutes, I never dreamed that we would come to a dead end!

Shocked, I suddenly thought of the map.

"It seems that the map is really fake, at least, this location is marked wrong again."

I sighed and said helplessly.

However, Bai Chenxu shook his head, "The map is not wrong, this location is indeed the entrance to the ear chamber, but there is no door marked on the map."

I was so astonished, looking at the dark mountain wall in front of me, I couldn't believe it even to death, it turned out to be a door here!

"How do you know?" I asked.

"Although this wall looks airtight, look below!"

Hearing Bai Chenxu's words, I looked in the direction of his finger, and saw some plants growing from the ground under the stone wall.

The plants are green, and a gust of wind blows, and the green plants sway in the wind.

This is why we walked in from the outside. There were at most some dark yellow moss on the stone wall along the way, but the further we went deeper into the tomb, the moss gradually disappeared. How could there be plants growing here?

The plants are still green. I know there will be no plants without sunlight and water, let alone green plants.

I suddenly remembered that when I fell into the Wuyou Cave from the top of the mountain, I felt the green moss growing on the surrounding rock walls, which was different from the dark yellow moss I just saw in the tomb.

"You mean that there is a door leading to the ear chamber, and there is a skylight in the ear chamber, which can see rain and sunshine?"

My whole body became tense, and I felt that I was getting closer to the crystal coffin.

However, Bai Chenxu shook his head and said, "I'm not sure about the skylight, but at least there are ventilation holes, and the mystery of this zombie's survival for thousands of years may be in it."

Bai Chenxu's eyes showed joy, but my heart suddenly couldn't help but skip a beat.

No, Bai Chenxu has never studied archeology or tomb robbery, so how could he know so much?
I grabbed Bai Chenxu by the collar, squinted my eyes, and asked, "Coward, tell me the truth, why do you know so much?"
