Chapter 40: Are Zongzi and Zombies the Same Species?
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ren!"
The coffin was opened, and it was visible to the naked eye that Mr. Ren inside was swallowing moonlight at a speed visible to the naked eye, accelerating the transformation into a corpse.
Unfortunately, the speed of his corpse transformation was 'too slow'. The moment the coffin was opened, a mahogany sword mixed with the blood of Zhang Lin's middle finger was inserted straight into the chest of Mr. Ren.
The peach wood wards off evil spirits and is naturally capable of restraining zombies and ghosts. Although Zhang Lin's bloodline is weak and has not yet fully awakened, he still possesses the power of the Yang Zhi. When the two are combined into one, Old Master Ren can transform into a corpse even if he has not yet completed the transformation.
If it is completed, I am afraid that if it does not reach the level of a general, it will be wiped out in ashes.
What's more, the mahogany sword passed through Zhang Lin's chest with Zhang Lin's blood, hitting the zombie's weakest point.
The moonlight that was swallowed in turned into black smoke and dissipated from the body before it completely transformed Old Man Ren.
The originally bloated body quickly shriveled up and soon turned into a pile of withered bones.
Looking at the main mission that had been completed, Zhang Lin closed the coffin and turned around to leave. As for Uncle Jiu's inquiries afterwards, he didn't know anything about it.
Mr. Ren was buried in a feng shui treasured place. No one could explain why Mr. Ren turned into a pile of withered bones.
Uncle Jiu asked, but Zhang Lin only said that someone came to Yizhuang, knocked Qiu Sheng and Wencai unconscious, chased him out, and did not know what happened. Although this statement was full of loopholes, Uncle Jiu was not a pedantic person. After all, he allowed the old man to turn into a corpse.
, which made him very troubled.
Whether Zhang Lin solves it or someone else really solves it, in short it will be a big trouble.
After collecting the money and settling the matter, Uncle Jiu was free. Zhang Lin also walked diligently to Yizhuang, either to ask for advice on the art of talisman or seal script, or to discuss his cultivation insights with Uncle Jiu.
Feeling Zhang Lin's talent, Uncle Jiu, as an elder, also gave a lot of guidance. Basically, except for the core of the Maoshan Taoist sect, Uncle Jiu explained a lot of things that can be taught. As for the few days and more than ten days, it is rare.
Zhang Lin got to know the four-eyed Taoist priests he met, but it was much less common for him to sit down and talk about Taoism.
That day, with nothing going on, Zhang Lin came to Yizhuang again.
Before he entered the house, he saw Uncle Jiu chasing Qiu Sheng. When he asked about his literary talent, he found out that Qiu Sheng had been acting abnormally these past few days, suffering from serious loss of energy and energy, and being listless all day long.
Uncle Jiu asked further, and found out that this boy had been obsessed by a female ghost, and had done that thing where dragons, phoenixes, and mandarin ducks were making love, and had been sucked up by the female ghost.
I have been communicating with Zhang Lin in the past few days. Regarding Zhang Lin's talent in Taoism, Uncle Jiu often dared that the Bashu Taoist sect had accepted a good disciple and had a successor.
As for the incompetence of Qiu Sheng and the literary talents, the management has become stricter than before, but Qiu Sheng actually did such a thing, which not only harmed himself, but also made him, Lin Jiu, look disgraceful.
A disciple of the Taoist cult, whose tradition was to slay demons and catch ghosts, was about to die after being sucked dry by a female ghost.
It would be fine if the other party was some centuries-old evil spirit, but from what Qiu Sheng said, he was just a wandering spirit in the mountains.
Thinking of this, Uncle Jiu played even harder.
Seeing this, Zhang Lin stopped Uncle Jiu and said, "Uncle Jiu, please don't get angry. The first priority is to find the female ghost and deal with it first."
Hearing this, Uncle Jiu nodded helplessly and kicked Qiu Sheng Wencai again: "Look at others Xiaoyao, and then look at you. They are younger than you and have entered the road. You have been dawdling for so many years and you can't even get enough of it.
I can't bear it. I have been practicing individual training for at least four or five years, and I haven't even finished training the skin..."
Uncle Jiu became more and more angry as he talked, and Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai each received another kick. When they heard this, they screamed that they were wronged, but they did not dare to say a word. Learning from the past, if you dare to make a sound at this time, you will definitely not get good results.
When Qiu Sheng arrived, he refused to reveal where the female ghost was hiding. He insisted that the female ghost was a human and not a ghost, which made Uncle Jiu's liver tremble with anger.
In desperation, Zhang Lin had no choice but to ask Uncle Jiu to calm down and said that he had a countermeasure.
When Uncle Jiu heard about it, he drove away Qiu Sheng and Wencai. He sat down helplessly and said, "You're a stubborn person, I'll make Xiaoyao laugh!"
Hearing this, Zhang Lin said with relief: "What did Uncle Ninth say? That young man is not passionate. I was no better than the two of them in the past two years. It's just that I have gained a lot of experience and become more stable.
If Uncle Jiu met me a few years ago, you would definitely worry about gray hair every day.
Qiu Sheng's literary talent is also a talent that can be developed. Uncle Jiu and the two of them are masters and apprentices, rather than father and son. Such a family relationship is something Lin Enen cannot envy."
Upon hearing this, Uncle Jiu thought that he had aroused Zhang Lin's unbearable past, so he changed the subject and said: "If you don't mention this, you are here today, but what doubts do you have?"
Zhang Linda said: "Today is not about cultivation, but about some miscellaneous things that I want to ask Uncle Jiu for advice."
"Oh," Uncle Jiu asked curiously, "What is it?"
"Uncle Jiu knew that I had been in the grass for a while, and the situation there was very bad, so some thieves started to beat me to death.
They dug graves to obtain gold and silver treasures, which they exchanged for food, guns and ammunition, or wages.
In that big tomb, there are corpses that have not decayed for thousands of years, which they call Zongzi.
I saw it once and was very curious, are those rice dumplings and zombies the same thing?"
Zhang Lin was very puzzled and said: "According to Taoist records, zombies have grievances in their hearts before death, or are unable to calm down, resulting in a heavy breath in the chest that cannot be dissipated, and they happen to be buried in the underworld, a sinister place. Over time,
, the breath turns into a zombie breath, causing the corpse to transform into a zombie.
But those big tombs are all buried with powerful families, princes, generals and ministers. I won’t say whether they had any grievances before their death, or whether they were depressed and difficult to calm down, but the places where they are buried are all excellent Feng Shui treasure land, with auspicious soil and loam soil.
The land of Dragon Vein is extremely valuable, and it can bless future generations.
It stands to reason that those rice dumplings should not be evil things like zombies, but they can also be regarded as zombies. This junior is very puzzled by this.
Zombies are ferocious, formed by the resentment of heaven and earth. Wherever they are, even in the best treasure land, they will be completely destroyed by their resentment.
Those dead princes, generals, ministers and ministers from aristocratic families were in high positions and naturally knew the pros and cons, so they would never let themselves become zombies and harm future generations.
So, Uncle Jiu, do you think the zombie-turned-zongzi is considered a zombie?"
"This..." Uncle Jiu heard this and thought hard, not knowing how to answer.
Indeed, zombies are born out of resentment. Even if someone refines a corpse, they would choose a very dangerous place, a land of evil spirits.
But those ancient tombs are all geomantic treasures and auspicious loam, and they are definitely not the birthplace of zombies. The owners of those ancient tombs and their descendants will never allow zombies to form in the tombs or even around the tombs.
Therefore, he couldn't tell whether the rice dumplings turned into corpses in the ancient tombs were considered zombies.
Both of them had no choice but to remain silent.
Unable to figure out why, Uncle Jiu asked, "Have you tried Taoism? Is it useful to them?"
Zhang Lin shook his head and said: "It was the first time we met. How can I remember? In the end, my wife led someone to burn the rice dumpling and saved everyone. When I remembered, the rice dumpling had turned into ashes together with its tomb."
I can give this acting skill ninety points.
He, Zhang Lin, was just curious whether Zongzi could be considered a zombie. After all, as he said, the conditions for the formation of zombies were simply not met by those princely tombs.
As for the concubine who was captured and made a stronghold of the Xianggong, it is completely fabricated.
