White Bone Monkey King

Outside the corpse pavilion is a dark corridor, with no end in sight and no way back.

Only dark.

Zhang Zhuzi's nose twitched. He smelled a complex smell in the corridor, like the smell of blood mixed with the smell of rotten corpses. The smell was very pungent.

The martial arts immortal's vitality can ward off evil spirits. Because Jin An was by his side, Zhang Zhuzhu felt no signs of poisoning in this underground space that had been closed all year round, except for the unpleasant smell.

You must know that this place has been buried underground for a long time and will never see the light of day. The stench of rotting corpses has accumulated here for a long time, which is no different from a poisonous miasma.

"Why is it so smelly here? Where does the smell of corpses come from?" Zhang Zhuzhu just muttered in a low voice. Suddenly, in the invisible claustrophobic darkness, there were several weird gurgling noises.

There was a sound like the scraping of coffin boards or the sound of joints snapping. Standing in a dark and claustrophobic space, a person suddenly felt like his scalp was numb and he felt panicked.

It feels like a person is standing in a mass grave, and a casual word wakes up the dead. It is not yet clear how many dead people there are.

Zhang Zhuzhu also knew that it was very likely that he had caused trouble by speaking just now, so he was so frightened that he quickly shut up. After he shut up and the corridor became quiet again, the strange noises disappeared.

Zhang Zhuzi stood in the darkness, trying his best to widen his frightened eyes, trying to see clearly what kind of crisis was hidden in this underground dark space.

Jin An was not as restrained as Zhang Zhuzhu. He looked around calmly and found that there were no torches on the wall. He gave up the idea of ​​lighting up the corridor for the time being and walked towards the left hand direction with barely any illumination with two dim torches.

He had just identified the location by listening to the sound, and heard the strange noise coming from the left side.

When the Shinto master came here, his soul was severely suppressed. Jin An found that his soul was still suppressed and he could not see the whole underground with his spiritual consciousness, so he could only advance slowly with Zhang Zhuzhu.

Suddenly, Jin An felt something kicked under his feet, and there was a rolling sound. He looked down and saw that it was a torch with thick dust that was touched by his toe. It was the rolling sound of the torch just now.

The sound of rolling wooden sticks, which usually no one cares about at all, is placed in this dark corridor that has been covered in dust for who knows how many years and is as silent as death. The echo quickly amplifies, making it appear particularly empty and harsh, and can be heard far away.

Giggle——

Giggle——

Because the darkness and calm were broken, that eerie, scalp-numbing sound sounded again, and this time it was denser, more than before.

Jin An frowned, and he took a few steps faster, trying to step on the torch on the ground, but the torch stopped abruptly in the darkness before it rolled a few steps away.

Jin An walked ten feet away and saw a black shadow standing in the darkness. If it weren't for his extraordinary eyesight, an ordinary person would never have been able to detect the abnormality in the dark shadow in advance. For example, Zhang Zhuzhu never noticed it.

When he got closer, he could see clearly that the black shadow was a headless corpse. The headless corpse was sitting on the ground against the wall. After the head exploded, it sprayed a wall of blood and brains, and now it turned into black blood like black mud. If you look carefully, you can still see blood vessels in the black blood.

The reason why the torch stopped suddenly was because it rolled to a stop at the feet of the mummy.

As the warm firelight illuminated the darkness and illuminated the headless body, an even stranger scene occurred.

Giggle——

Giggle——

The black blood all over the wall behind the headless corpse sitting against the wall started to squirm like a living thing, with streaks of black blood spreading like dense spider webs in all directions.

The headless dead man remained the same headless dead man, remaining motionless.

The black blood on the back of his head came to life.

Zhang Zhuzhu was just an ordinary person. He had never seen such a scene before. He stood there holding a torch and did not dare to move.

The black blood threads on the wall were still spreading. Although the two of them remained silent, the black blood threads seemed to be sensitive to fire. They climbed along the wall and spread towards them, like black blood thorns and black blood. Wall-crawler.

Strange things happen one after another.

After these black blood streaks spread around them, they just wandered around the light source, not approaching them, and showing no hostility to the two of them.

Jin An observed for a while and found that these black-blooded wall-crawlers were not hostile to them, but were afraid to wander around and did not dare to move forward.

After thinking for a while, Jin An thought of the key. It seemed that the powdered ashes or human elixir they carried with them played a role.

Jin An prefers the latter.

Because the human elixir spirit infant and the black-blooded wall-creeper seem to be most closely related to the plague-repelling tree.

Both are wood.

In order to further verify the speculation, Jin An took the initiative to extinguish the torch this time and asked Zhang Zhuzhu to extinguish the torch as well.

After the firelight that did not belong to the dark world disappeared, those black-blooded wall-crawlers retreated like a tide, retreating back into the blood mass behind the headless dead man.

Seeing this scene, Jin An's eyes lit up, and it was just as he had guessed.

This black-blooded wall-crawler seems to be afraid of light and is particularly sensitive to firelight.

However, the purpose of his trip was to find the plague-repelling tree. Before he found the plague-repelling tree, he didn't want to disturb the plague-repelling tree too early and make the plague-repelling tree hide on guard, so he chose not to light a torch. After passing by, he did not choose to set fire to the corpse on the spot.

When he was far away and could no longer see the headless body, Zhang Zhuzhu breathed a sigh of relief and was about to speak, but Jin An shook his head to stop him.

Jin An raised his finger and pointed at the top of his head.

Zhang Zhuzi's heart skipped a beat, and he felt the cold wind whistling on his neck. His neck was stiff and he looked up at the top of his head, his eyes widening in fear.

A headless corpse hung above the head, and a large ball of black blood spattered on the ceiling, like a black wall-crawler tightly wrapped around the headless corpse.

In the darkness, Jin An patted Zhang Zhuzhu's shoulder and motioned for him to follow him and move on.

To say that he had not reacted before, Zhang Zhuzhu could not know at this time that their journey was safe and sound only because of the powdered ashes and the human elixir spirit infant, so he subconsciously hugged him tighter.

At the same time, he silently vowed in his heart that if he could really go out in the end, he would find a feng shui treasured place to bury the other party lavishly, and thank him for his great kindness.

During the next journey, Zhang Zhuzhu finally got to know the corpse place mentioned by Jin An.

The two of them walked down the road in the dark, encountering no less than twenty or thirty headless corpses, with all kinds of death methods and postures. However, under the protection of the Human Pill Spirit Infant, the section that should have been the most dangerous was actually the most dangerous. Safe and easy.

But if it were that simple, it wouldn't be called a place where corpses accumulate.

The further you go, the stronger the smell of corpse odor becomes, and the number of encounters with headless corpses becomes more and more frequent. Ordinary people walking here, even if they are not entangled by unclean things, will be poisoned by corpse stench and die suddenly. Zhang Zhuzhu He also saw the danger and moved closer to Jin'an.
