Tian Lin didn't talk much. He also held the black coffin and told Zhou Jin the answer with practical actions.

The three of them left quietly.

After returning to Huilong Village, Old Man Ran made tea while letting others take care of the black coffin.

As soon as he took his seat, he explained to Tian Lin and Zhou Jin:

"Such a 'funeral team' happens every year within the jurisdiction of the Xiangxi Sect. And such funeral teams are 'organized' by the affiliated sects of the Xiangxi Sect.

In these affiliated sects, after each clan leader dies, he will bring a coffin with him, and the corpse slaves he saved during his lifetime will be sent to the Xiangxi Sect for 'tribute'.

The zombie team just now belonged to the Wu family in Wuliang Mountain. "

After hearing this, Zhou Jin looked at Tian Lin and said, "What do you think Elder Gao wants the red coffin for?"

In fact, there is no need to ask more, it is just for the dead Senior Brother Xue.

Tian Lin said with some confusion: "People cannot be resurrected after death, and Senior Brother Xue has already lost his soul. Now there is only one corpse left. Even if this corpse can move freely, can it still be regarded as 'Senior Brother Xue'? It is just a walking corpse."

After listening to Tian Lin's words, Old Ran beside him shook his head and said:

"Fellow Daoist Tian is wrong! As long as the human body still exists, sooner or later a new consciousness will be born. And when a new consciousness is born, a new soul will be born. It is nothing more than losing the previous memory——

I, the corpse chaser, have always believed that the soul is just a temporary memory. If the physical body can regenerate consciousness and survive for thousands of years, then a moment of memory is just a drop in the ocean in a lifetime. Even if it is gone, what is there to regret? "

Tian Lin knew that the philosophy of the Exorcists and the Xiangxi Sect was different from other sects, so he was too lazy to argue with Old Man Ran.

He said: "The key now is that Elder Gao came here to the Xiangxi Sect's jurisdiction as an excuse to train us, mainly for the red coffin. Or was it because he was training us that he saw the red coffin and temporarily came up with the idea of ​​​​the red coffin? "

"If it's the former, then what will she do if she gets the red coffin this time or loses the red coffin? Are we going to go back to Taoism?

If it's the latter, regardless of whether the red coffin is obtained or not, we will still have to stay in the Xiangxi Sect's jurisdiction for a while. "

After Zhou Jin finished speaking, he sighed and said: "Elder Gao has only had one son, Senior Brother Xue, for more than a thousand years. In order to give birth to Senior Brother Xue, she even ignored her own cultivation.

When Senior Brother Xue dies, I think she will definitely feel very sad. "

Tian Lin glanced at Zhou Jin. There was no doubt that Elder Gao was feeling uncomfortable.

But just because Elder Gao feels uncomfortable, she cannot be allowed to act recklessly. Just let her do whatever she wants, don't let her and others get hurt.

"We still need to inquire about the news and see how the battle is going over there. If something is really wrong, we still need to go to Taoist Sect to report back the news."

After Tian Lin finished speaking, someone knocked on the door outside.

After Old Man Ran asked people to come in, he heard the villager report: "Elder Ren of the Xiangxi Sect has returned to the sect with the red coffin and the walking corpse."

Tian Lin asked the villagers: "What about Elder Gao?"

"The female elder also returned to the building. She seemed to be injured. Fortunately, the injury was not serious."

Tian Lin and Zhou Jin both breathed a sigh of relief, and Old Man Ran smiled and said:

"This is the best. Xiangxi Sect and Taoist Sect are both major sects of the Immortal Sect. It is best not to cause any trouble because of trivial matters."

Huilong Village is on the outskirts of the Xiangxi Sect's jurisdiction. If the Taoist Sect wants to attack the Xiangxi Sect, Huilong Village will inevitably be implicated.

Similarly, Tian Lin and Zhou Jin did not want conflicts between the two immortal sects.

Once those big shots start a fight, they are often the cannon fodder who die.

What's even more sad is that after these cannon fodders die, the big shots will probably still be able to talk and laugh at the negotiating table in the end.

There was no talking all night, and early the next morning, Tian and Lin went out to the mass grave forest as usual.

After that, several people spent three days and finally captured two more walking corpses.

In less than seven days, old man Ran had become much older. Even Zhou Jin's face was black and blue. It was obvious that the corpse poison was difficult to remove for a while.

But looking at the walking corpses in front of him, not only was Old Ran happy, but Zhou Jin himself was also full of a sense of accomplishment. Listening to him jokingly said: "Tell me, will we make money by selling walking corpses in the future?"

Tian Lin shook his head: "I'm afraid you, Senior Brother Zhou, will look down on this kind of business. After a long time, most people won't be able to sustain it."

Having said this, Tian Lin said to Old Man Ran: "After we carry the walking corpse back to see Elder Gao, we will sell the walking corpse to you, fellow Daoist Ran."

Old man Ran touched the white hair on his face and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Tian and Fellow Daoist Zhou, we are in the same boat. Ran will not let you two suffer."

He helped Tian Lin and Zhou Jin carry the two black coffins to the bottom of the building boat. In the mountain col below the building boat, there were black coffins parked everywhere.

Twenty black coffins were stacked neatly. Many people had already bought the walking corpses and had been waiting here for a long time.

Zhou Jin tugged on Tian Lin's sleeves and looked at Senior Brother Changxue not far away.

Tian Lin understood what he meant. Zhou Jin was laughing at Senior Brother Changxue for realizing that he had spent money to cheat.

But looking at the people present, most of them were walking corpses bought by Hua Lingshi. There were very few people like Tian Lin and Zhou Jin who tried to catch the walking corpses to complete the mission.

At this time, Zhou Mengjiao came over.

She glanced at Tian Lin, then looked at Zhou Jin and said, "Brother, what's the matter? I think your current condition seems to be injured?"

Zhou Jin shook his head and said proudly: "How can anyone catch a walking corpse without being injured?"

Zhou Mengjiao looked at Tian Lin and said, "Then why are no one else injured?"

Zhou Jin looked a little worried. Tian Zhuji was in the middle stage of cultivation and was doing the job of guarding the formation on the outside.

But his performance was far inferior to Tian Lin, a monk in the early stages of foundation building.

Zhou Mengjiao didn't ask further. She just said: "The son of a rich man cannot sit down in court. Why should I fight for my life when I can solve the problem with spiritual stones? Fight to the end, don't be betrayed and help count the money."

After speaking, she glanced at Tian Lin again before leaving.

Zhou Jin became even more worried and said to Tian Lin, "My sister has been spoiled since she was a child. Junior Brother Tian, ​​don't be angry."

Tian Lin shook his head and smiled, and said: "It's all my fault, senior brother, for your random matching of good guys. That's why senior sister Zhou is prejudiced against me."

When the matter of Lalang's wife was mentioned, Zhou Jin's mind suddenly changed.

He had originally given up on marrying his sister to Tian Lin, but seeing Tian Lin's behavior in the past few days, his dead thoughts came to life again.

"Elder Gao is down, everyone, please be silent."

Senior Brother Changxue, who had been sitting cross-legged and meditating, suddenly opened his eyes and spoke. The others looked up at the building ship slowly descending from high in the sky.

The building boat stopped in the mountain col, crushing countless trees.

I saw Elder Gao walking down from the boat. She had recovered from her injuries in a few days. Except for Tian Lin and Zhou Jin, no one knew that she had been injured in a fight not long ago.

"Very well, you put the coffin on the second floor of the ship."

Elder Gao was always cold and stern, but this time he looked at a female disciple among the students and asked, "Bai Qian, how is your injury now?"

The woman named Bai Qian was stunned, and quickly said to Elder Gao: "This disciple has taken the detoxification pill, and now his injury is almost healed."

Elder Gao nodded and said:

"That day in the academy, I asked you, Senior Brother Xue, to come out just to let the disciples know the role of funerary science. However, you did have poor adaptability. You inhaled too much corpse gas when you were in danger, otherwise you wouldn't have been injured. "

After hearing her words, Bai Qian felt ashamed and secretly annoyed.

However, Elder Gao suddenly changed the subject and said, "You are resting in my attic for the past two days. You don't have to do any tasks for the time being."

As soon as these words came out, not only Bai Qian was in a daze, but even the disciples who had just finished carrying the coffin and got off the boat were a little surprised.

Bai Qian was overjoyed and quickly thanked Elder Gao: "Thank you, Elder, for your kindness."

Zhou Jin tugged on Tian Lin's sleeve and whispered to Tian Lin: "Tell me, if I told Elder Gao that I was also injured at this time, would I be treated like this?"

Tian Lin shook his head and replied in a secret voice:

"According to Elder Gao, I'm afraid the next task will be even more difficult. Otherwise, Bai Qian won't have to participate. If it really doesn't work, don't say you are really sick, even if you are pretending to be sick, we have to refuse. "

When the two of them were talking in secret, Elder Gao turned around and looked at everyone and said:

"What you do in the next twenty days will be counted as the monthly exam at the end of the month. But for the specifics of what you are going to do, all the disciples should have a good rest for two days, and then I will tell you."

Zhou Jin secretly asked Tian Lin: "What are you doing that requires us to rest for two days? Or maybe Elder Gao didn't think clearly about what he asked us to do?"

Tian Lin shook his head and said: "Elder Gao asked us to move the walking corpses to the building boat. It seems that he does not intend to return the walking corpses to us."

A low-grade walking corpse is worth hundreds of high-grade spiritual stones.

How many spiritual stones are twenty walking corpses, plus so many black coffins, worth?

"We actually lost money on this trip - not only is it hard to get the corpse back, but we also have to pay for the cost of Fellow Daoist Ran's coffin."

Zhou Jin asked again: "Why does Elder Gao want so many zombies?"

Tian Lin shook his head again, secretly guessing that Elder Gao's trip to the Xiangxi Sect's jurisdiction was not at all for students like them to learn funerary science.

Elder Gao is a teaching elder and usually has little chance to leave the sect.

So something was done to make the students pay attention to the name of funeral studies, and went to the jurisdiction of Xiangxi Sect in the name of "collecting styles".

She might have known for a long time that the head of the Wu family in Wuliang Mountain had died, and there would be corpses carrying the coffin.

For the sake of the red coffin, she has been guarding the only road from Wuliang Mountain to Xiangxi Sect.

But the red coffin failed to succeed, and she still refused to leave. She just had other ideas.
