Chapter two hundred and seventeen the ancient corpse of the Qing Dynasty
“On it!”
Liu Hongyi and I exclaimed at the same time.
We quickly looked up at the tree, but saw a black shadow falling from the sky and pounced towards us.
"Does go!"
Liu Hongyi and I spoke in unison again and slapped a palm at the same time.
The two palms faced each other and made a bang. The stormy palm wind pushed Liu Hongyi and me backward for more than two meters.
And it is precisely because of the palm we slapped each other that we successfully avoided the sneak attack of the black shadow.
I was secretly happy: "Miss Liu, we really have a tacit understanding!"
Liu Hongyi said, "Go to you, who has a tacit understanding with you?"
The black shadow just landed in the center of Liu Hongyi and me, and it was empty.
However, before Liu Hongyi and I could see clearly, the black shadow was a little on the ground and rushed into the bushes opposite with a whoosh.
It can be said to be: come without a shadow, go without a trace!
"Damn, I can't let him run away again this time!" I gritted my teeth and chased into the bushes.
As soon as I rushed into the bushes, I suddenly felt a strong wind rushing on my face.
Fortunately, my reaction was also very fast. I suddenly felt my waist, and two strong winds hit my face, and it turned out to be two extremely sharp claws.
Before I could straighten my back, I heard a delicate scolding. Liu Hongyi flew over my head, kicked the black shadow in the chest, and kicked the black shadow away.
A ray of girlish fragrance floated past my nose, and I vaguely saw a pair of sexy underwear.
It’s not that I’m lustful, everything is a coincidence!
Liu Hongyi fell to the ground, and I stood up.
Liu Hongyi turned her head and looked at me, and asked strangely: "Why are your face so red?"
I touched my cheeks and felt my cheeks burning. The sexy underwear flashed past my eyes, but said, "Oh, maybe I'm getting dry and angry these two days!"
“Uh…ah…uh…uh…”
A low roar came from a distance, like a wild beast or a human.
I looked closely and immediately took a breath of cold air.
It was just noon at this time, and the sunlight penetrated the gaps between the branches and fell like sharp arrows, casting many mottled and dim lights and shadows among the woods.
In a ball of light and shadow, I finally saw the true face of the black shadow.
It was a man, a thin old man with crane hair and chicken skin. He leaned against a big tree trunk, like a dehydrated radish, with only yellow skin wrapped around the bones, without any moisture. When he saw it, it looked like a piece of dried human flesh blown by the wind. His eyes were sunken deep, and he could see that he had no vitality.
Of course, these are not the strangest things. What's strange is that this old man actually has a very special hairstyle. His forehead was smooth and his head was a long braid. The braid was hanging from behind his butt, like a tail.
Let’s look at the old man’s clothes. This kind of clothes are not available in modern society, but they are often seen on TV, especially in costume dramas. At first glance, they are the official uniforms of Qing Dynasty officials.
The official positions in the Qing Dynasty were roughly divided into nine ranks, and the patterns on each rank's official uniform were different.
The old man's official uniform was embroidered with cloud geese and a lapis lazuli top. In terms of identity and status, the fourth-rank official of the Qing Dynasty was also not low.
I looked at the old man's face again, his face turned black, lifeless, and covered with corpse spots. I knew at a glance that he had passed away for many years.
This is a dead body!
And it is an ancient Qing Dynasty corpse!
My eyes swept across the old man's body quickly, but I saw that the old man's skin was very strange, his body surface was covered with wrinkles, and the cortex had hardened, like a piece of armor covering his body.
The most terrifying thing is his hands. His fingers were thin and as if they had changed, becoming like the claws of wild beasts. The nails were long and sharp, black and shiny, and the fingertips were covered with rich black air.
Liu Hongyi looked at me in surprise: "Zombie?!"
I bit my lip and nodded slowly. The ancient Qing Dynasty corpse in front of me was clearly a zombie!
This zombie is definitely more terrifying and fierce than the zombies transformed by ordinary zombies, because this zombie is old and has absorbed the essence of the world, sun and moon. The combat power is not the same as that of the zombies transformed by zombies after being shocked.
I have seen the power of zombies with my own eyes, but those are only zombies after the transformation of corpses. After all, it is the first time I have faced such a powerful Qing Dynasty zombie.
My cheeks couldn't help but twitched twice, and my heart suddenly felt cold.
This time I was in trouble. To be honest, I was not sure that I could subdue this Qing Dynasty zombie.
Although there was no big change on my face, I was still a little scared. To say that I was not afraid is definitely a lie.
Is the Qing zombie in front of us the culprit behind the scenes we are looking for?
There are actually zombies appearing on the grave mountain in Gaoshan Village?!
So, are my previous guesses and inferences all wrong?
Could it be that there are really zombies in the coffin, not some evil master?
"No! He is not the murderer lying in the coffin!" I still insisted on my inference: "Hongyi, think carefully about what the old man said just now. What he described to us from beginning to end was that there was a man lying in the coffin, an elderly middle-aged man! His description was obviously different from this Qing Dynasty zombie. The costumes of this Qing Dynasty zombie are so unique, so the little old man cannot not know it!"
Liu Hongyi nodded slowly and said, "What do you mean... this Qing Dynasty zombie... was it just something we encountered accidentally?"
I frowned and said, "I can't explain it clearly, but I don't feel like I encountered it unexpectedly. I think this zombie is waiting here to ambush us!"
"According to what you said, this zombie is very likely to be related to the evil master we had guessed before?" Liu Hongyi asked with her big eyes flashing.
I nodded: "This zombie is not the real murderer who killed the Yu family, but this zombie may have something to do with the real murderer. Yes, that's what I mean!"
"roar--"
The ancient corpse of the Qing Dynasty suddenly raised his neck, opened his mouth, and a thick corpse gas spurted out from his mouth, and his pupils quickly turned into a terrifying dark green. At this moment, he no longer looked like a human!
Liu Hongyi turned her head and looked at me: "Master Jiu, are you sure?"
I squeezed my nose and reached out to touch the corpse-driven whip on my waist: "Do you want to hear the truth or lies?"
"Nonsense! Life is at stake, of course I will listen to the truth!" Liu Hongyi said.
"The truth is..." I coughed twice and said, "I'm not sure at all!"
"Damn!" Liu Hongyi was straightforward and immediately sweared: "Master Jiu, I praise you so high, you disappoint me so much!"
I rolled my eyes: "Miss Liu, you can tell with your eyes how powerful this Qing Dynasty zombie is, right? Then I ask you, are you sure to settle him?"
Liu Hongyi sighed: "It is still possible to deal with people. If you corpse drivers do it, that is the ability of you corpse-drivers!"
"Stop talking nonsense, he is here!" I exclaimed in a low voice, pushed Liu Hongyi away, and the Qing Dynasty zombies rushed over and walked through the middle of Liu Hongyi and me.
The Qing Dynasty zombies were indeed fierce. They jumped in the air and grabbed the trunks behind us with both hands.
There was a clamor, and the hard bark was actually scratched by the sharp claws of the zombie, revealing the heart of the tree inside.
I secretly squeezed my cold sweat, my sharp claws!
The zombie pinched the bark in her palm into powder, and the powder drifted out along with the zombie's fingers.
"roar--"
A terrifying light burst out from the zombie's green eyes. With a terrifying roar, he rushed towards us again.
The zombies move very quickly, as fast as lightning, completely different from the kind of zombies played on TV.
The fictional zombies on TV are stiff and clumsy, and are no different from wooden stakes except for their terrifying appearance.
But in reality, real zombies are as fast as the wind, not clumsy at all, and even more ferocious than wild beasts.
The zombie figure flashed and had already pounced in front of me, with sharp claws stretched out and directly hitting my heart.
Although I was prepared for a long time, the zombies' impact speed was beyond my judgment.
And, the worst thing is that I forgot to judge the surrounding terrain.
I thought I could successfully avoid it, but just as I retreated three meters away, my back hit a big trunk. This deadly tree blocked my retreat, and I actually forgot this crucial point.
Mom, your mother!
My heart immediately sank, and I wish I could slap myself two big ears.
With just a pause, the sharp claws had approached my chest, and the claws flashed with a cold black light, passing through my pupils.
At this critical moment, my heart instantly hung in my throat.
Fortunately, at this moment of life and death, I tried hard to remain calm and keep my mind clear.
When I was talking, I suddenly pulled out the corpse-driven whip, grabbed the tip of the whip with my left hand, and intertwine in the air. At the moment when I could not avoid it, I quickly tied a knot, and it was not movable, just holding the zombie's claws.
Then I used both hands to pull the sides, tightening the knot, and tightening the ugly claw.
At this moment, the black fingertips were about one centimeter away from my heart!
"Roar—roar—roar—roar—"
The zombie made a series of strange screams, like a roar of a wild beast, desperately trying to reach out to catch me.
A powerful force was invisibly impacting me, but I didn't expect that the zombie's strength was so strong.
I didn't dare to relax at all, and I pressed my back against the trunk. Taking advantage of this pause, I walked around the big trunk like a rotating top.
There was a rustling sound from behind, and the terrifying claw was inserted into the tree trunk.
The broken bark flew past my ears, and the strong wind made my cheeks hurt.
I saved my life from the gates of hell, let out a long sigh, and my entire vest was soaked in cold sweat.
Chapter completed!
