Chapter 119: Corridor Zombies(1/2)
It is said that in the Mengdong River Basin, there are many deep mountains and old forests, especially Pingshan Mountain under Laoxiong Ridge.
It is said that people used to go up the mountain to collect herbs, and were dragged in by the zombies in the mountain gaps to suck out the blood marrow. Some of them were lucky enough to escape. They said that the zombies were tall, wearing purple robes and gold belts. Judging from the attire, they were either princes or generals, so
They all call him Xiangxi Corpse King.
It is said that he dared to come out and hurt people in broad daylight, so that no one dared to approach this mountain in modern times.
Chen Yulou took the opportunity to chat with the partridge whistle, and finally said doubtfully: "But when we entered Pingshan for the third time, we only saw many poisonous insects on the mountain, but not any ghosts that deceived corpses. This shows the legend of the Dongyi people.
It cannot be trusted."
The partridge whistle said: "What Mr. Chen said is very true. I have heard that there are many such legends in the eastern and western Guangdong and Guangdong.
Whenever the ancient corpses of nobles are dug up and they are seen in luxurious clothes and with gold and jade belts around their waists, they will spread rumors and call them corpse kings. It seems that even zombies can be divided into three, six or nine grades. They belong to princes during life and appear after death.
The zombies are also much more powerful than ordinary zombies. The opinions of such ignorant people and thieves are laughable."
Chen Yulou nodded and said: "Brother, what you said is reasonable. In fact, the nobles were noble during their lifetime. The burial methods to preserve the corpses after death are naturally much better than those of the poor. Therefore, when the corpses of the nobles are exhumed from ancient tombs, they are often buried because of the use of the coffins and coffins.
The effect is to make the corpse appear alive and vivid, and the corpses of poor people are buried in mass graves instead of being buried by wild people.
If the dog digs it out and gnaws it, it will be eaten by insects and ants. In less than half a year, even the bones will be difficult to save. Therefore, he was a king and respected in life, and his body after death is still extremely noble than ordinary people. He also wants to be a "king of corpses" to scare people.
It’s really irritating to think about the miserable fellows we are fighting against. If we don’t fall down, it will not be enough for the people to be angry..."
As Chen Yulou spoke, he took the opportunity to change the topic and get to the point. He continued: "Although the business of inverted fighting can make a fortune, it is extremely unlucky in the eyes of outsiders. We have been dealing with coffins and artifacts in ancient tombs all year round.
, it is inevitable that we will be infected with yin energy. In our own home,
It’s not like I was born to do this kind of thing like digging up antiques in tombs, but the creation of yin and yang has its own reasons. According to the purpose of the art of moving mountains and dividing armor, if there is something in the world, there must be a way to make it. We will fight back.
The craftsmen are the nemesis of those noble people during their lifetime.
Looking at the world today, natural disasters and military calamities are happening one after another. How can there be a day for the people to live and work in peace and contentment? It is said that the property left by the ancestors of my Chen family will not be used up even in ten lifetimes, but if I want to help in this troubled times, it is
A drop in the bucket.
Now that Brother Yu has learned the skill of fighting from the ground up, and has been promoted by his brothers, he has become the leader of the bandits in the 613 provinces of the South, Seventh and North. He is impatient to follow the crowd in the world, and just wants to take advantage of the troubled times to hold high the flag of righteousness and rob tombs.
Take profits and help the common people.
When Chen Yulou said this, he sighed, made a complacent tone, and said: "It's helpless that although I have more than enough, I can't do enough. Although there are many people in Xiling, I lack people with real abilities and means."
People." Chen Yulou said with a certain amount of anxiety and a certain amount of expectation: "If brother is willing to go to Changsheng Mountain to join the gang, I will guarantee that you will take the second golden seat.
We have more than 100,000 thieves in Changsheng Mountain. If we want the wind, we will get the wind, and if we want the rain, we will get the rain. From now on, you and I will join forces..."
The Partridge Whistle had already heard what he meant, and when he came up with the idea of joining the gang, he quickly declined and said: "These three secret techniques of tomb robbing have been passed down from ancient times, touching gold, and removing mountains. They are all about gathering righteousness and profit to benefit the world."
, Why is Taoist Banshan not belonging to this Tao? Different Taoist ways do not work together. Although we have high friendship, we can't do it."
As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Linda, who was closing his eyes and concentrating, and said: "Besides, Brother Chen has such an expert as Taoist Zhang to help him, how can he be unavailable when no one is available?"
Chen Yulou thought that what he just said was simply "the Duke of Zhou vomited his breasts, and the world returned to his heart." How sincere was it to ask Partridge Whistle to go to Changsheng Mountain to join the group and directly take the second golden chair? He was actually rejected by the other party.
.
And when he mentioned Zhang Lin, the most unstable factor, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised and angry, so he asked: "The way to fight against others is just that thieves also have their own way. Could it be that the way to move mountains is different? Is it possible?
Speak bluntly to clear up foolishness.
As for Taoist Zhang, he burns three pillars of incense from Kunlun himself and has a long and clean life. How can he have time to join in the dirty work with tomb robbers like us?
I came here just because my father asked me to rob the tomb to help refugees.
After returning, we parted ways. Besides, the Taoist leader is a true dragon-like figure. Looking at the world, I am afraid that not many people in Kunlun Mountain would dare to drive him."
The partridge whistle heard what Chen Yulou said and found it to be true.
A person like Zhang Lin is a Nine Heavenly Dragon who can be driven by extraordinary people to work for him.
But he had no interest in Chen Yulou's rebellion against Tuba, but there were no clues in searching for Muchen Pearl, and he found nothing in the tomb of the Dian King. He was thinking that with the large number of people and strength in Xiling, there might be some new clues.
No matter how bad things are, Chen Yulou, as the leader of Xiling, has tens of thousands of troops and hundreds of thousands of green forests at his command. If Chen Yulou can be asked to pay attention to him, it will be better than the three of his brothers and sisters living in the deep mountains and old forests day after day.
Exploring those ancient tombs with hope, but despair again and again,
Then he told Chen Yulou bluntly: "I have something on my mind, and it's hard to tell others about it. Since my brother is asking for more information, how dare you not tell me?"
So I briefly talked about how Taoist Banshan robbed the tomb in search of the Muchen Bead.
This clue is getting more and more elusive. Seeing that there are only three mountain-moving Taoists left, it is God's will and it is difficult to force it with manpower.
But as long as he lives for one day, he must follow the instructions of his ancestors and continue to search for the bead in ancient tombs everywhere.
Blind Chen suddenly realized that it turned out to be such an "elixir of immortality" and said with a smile: "Why didn't you tell me earlier, my brother would have this clue..." He was good at winning over people's hearts and was about to take over Partridge Whistle's troubles.
The matter was taken care of, and I was no longer afraid that he would refuse to join the gang. But just as he was about to say this, he heard a group of thieves who broke into the stone door and screamed in surprise.
Chen Yulou and Partridge Whistle knew something was wrong, so they did not bother to discuss Muchen Beads and quickly led the crowd to check it out.
It turned out that a group of thieves had opened the huge door, and outside the door was a tunnel in the mountain. The corridor was winding and deep, and the clouds and mist flowing gently inside were like cigarette smoke, making it difficult to see what was going on in the depths.
Chen Yulou felt a little unhappy when he saw the group of thieves making such a fuss, which really ruined Xiling's majesty. He lowered his face and asked the leader in charge of this area: "What were you yelling about just now? It's just a figurine path, and 80% of it is inside
This is the tomb of Yuan Ren..." As he spoke, he turned on the lamp and looked outside the stone door. Unexpectedly, he saw smoke flowing lightly in the tunnel, as if there was a person sitting cross-legged on the ground.
In a trance, I saw that the man was all dressed in black, and his robes were very strange. He had a fat and tall body, a lion's nose and a wide mouth, a beard like a halberd on his face, and his eyes were shining.
As soon as the eyes of the two parties met, Chen Yulou was so shocked that he broke into a cold sweat. When he tried to take a closer look, the man was hidden by the clouds and mist, making it impossible to see his figure.
But at that moment, everyone who was following Chen Yulou also took a look at each other. Rong Baoxiaoye's legs suddenly trembled, and he couldn't even speak. He pointed forward and backed away and exclaimed: "Zombies... are...
...It’s the Corpse King in the Pingshan Ancient Tomb!”
Upon hearing this, the group of thieves immediately set up sharpened bamboo poles and stretched out fishing nets to wait for the enemy. Some zombies were dead but not rotten, and some were alive when they encountered a living person with Yang energy.
The only way to work is to poke him, cover him with the corpse netting on Xiling, or stuff a black donkey's hoof into his mouth.
Just as Chen Yulou was about to call the crowd to attack, suddenly the Angry Rooster jumped out from among the chickens. The golden rooster landed on Chen Yulou's shoulder independently and crowed angrily. This rooster has been around since the partridge whistle fell into the Danjing.
Mixed in with the rest of the flock of roosters, in the palace
Centipedes were chased everywhere in the house. After a group of thieves entered the exposed iron pavilion, they also brought in a large number of chickens to prevent poisonous insects, but nothing unusual happened. However, at this time, the Angry Chicken suddenly began to sing majestically.
There must be some warning sign.
The thieves were slightly startled when they saw this, and they couldn't help but hesitate a little. They all had a vague premonition that as long as they approached the Corpse King of Pingshan, they might get into trouble immediately.
Luo Laowei poked his head behind Chen Yulou and said with some worry: "Boss, have we really found that Yuan Dynasty general? I looked at the peace charm and felt faintly hot. His grandma's, this Yuan Dynasty general
Could it be possible that the general deceived the corpse?"
Seeing this, the Partridge Whistle said: "Brother Chen, that guy inside is not unusual. Could it be that he is also a human figure cut out of colored paper? The corridor is also locked by fog. It is feared that there is some magic at work, so the Taoist Priest's talisman seal
Something strange? Why don't you go over alone first to see what's going on?
Even if it's really a big rice dumpling that has deceived the corpse, I have Kuixing by my side, so it won't be difficult for me to escape unscathed." After that, he went in with a lantern.
Miss Hong stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, don't you all recognize it? That corpse...the corpse king is wearing a black robe, a black hat, and boots on the soles of his feet. How could the nobles of the Yuan Dynasty be dressed like this?"
Chen Yulou and Partridge Whistle were both surprised, how could the red girl know about that weird black outfit? What kind of outfit was that?
Seeing the two people's doubts, Miss Hong explained: "I used to make a living as a performer in the Moon Mountain. I was a fellow storyteller, singer, and ancient color magician. I also know all the various tricks in the troupe."
Although my head was flashing just now, I could see clearly that only the actors and actresses in the troupe in the world could dress up like this, and the 'Corpse King' was dressed in black robes, boots and a hat, which was clearly a stage show.
The troupe plays the hooker in the play!"
The red girl was familiar with the costumes of the troupe, and she concluded at a glance that the guy in the figurine tunnel was definitely not a Yuan Dynasty general. Instead, he was dressed as an impermanent evil ghost wearing black clothes, boots and hats. Although the corpse was buried in a murderous shroud,
It's no ordinary clothes
But why would the nobles in the tomb wear costumes and be buried here? The costumes worn by the ancients may almost look like they were worn on the stage during the Republic of China, but how could anyone wear a costume in a tomb that would attract the dead?
Black robe?
The group of thieves were all stunned when they heard this. Previously, they saw a paper-cut woman wearing a Ming Dynasty paddy field dress in the iron attic, and now a woman wearing a hook-up ghost costume appeared. The real tomb in Pingshan Dan Palace has not yet been found.
But I ran into so many weird and strange things first, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of self-danger. What if there was really black and impermanent hidden in the mountain mist?
Chen Yulou knew that robbing tombs and digging tombs was all based on a moment of courage. The more uneasy he felt, the more suspicious he became, so ghosts were born. Therefore, there has always been a saying that "if you fight against ghosts, you don't believe in ghosts, and if you believe in ghosts, you don't fight against them."
The Xiling group of thieves have always believed that the threats in ancient tombs mainly come from agencies and corpses, and few people talk about taboos such as ghosts and spirits.
But now the black-robed ghost has just been seen by everyone. The main entertainment activities in that era were listening to books and watching operas. The more vulgar folk operas included: "ghost opera, fox opera, cat opera" and so on.
Relying on exaggerating the ghost and fox plot to attract the audience, the black-robed and black-hatted ghost is the main character in this kind of drama. Precisely because it is closer to real life, it is easier for people to believe it.
Chen Yulou saw that people were panicking and was worried that his brothers would lose their strength, so he said: "I think the text of the play is mostly made up. Eighty-nine out of ten plays are made up. How can it be believed to be true? Hurry!
say what
Such an impermanent ghost that seduces souls and threatens lives. In today's world, even gods can't hide from the smoke of foreign guns and cannons. No matter what is in this corridor, let's put two rows of guns through first. Even if the evil ghost is really in charge, isn't there still a way?
Is it long?
You all know the tricks of the gods, and the Taoist priest can get rid of these little imps with just a few seconds." After saying this, he waved his hand and ordered his men to raise their rifles, pull the bolts of the rifles in unison, load the bullets, and shoot at the figurines in the tunnel.
Its hair.
Zhang Lin was not angry after hearing what Chen Yulou said.
I wiped the butt of the co-author, but now it has become "lawless"!
