Chapter 50: Zhang Family Corpse Puppet (Additional update for the leader of the 'Green Shirt Will Not Change the Flow' alliance)
Led by Zhang Yue.
A group of government officials immediately surrounded the Zhang family.
Sudden changes.
Naturally, it has brought many benefits to the people.
"What's going on? Why did the Yamen people surround the Zhang family?"
"I don't know. Could it be that the Zhang family has also colluded with evil spirits?"
"Who knows, there will be a good show to watch——"
The people who were hiding far away were all talking in low voices as they watched the many government officials besieging the Zhang family.
They didn't leave, but they didn't approach without authorization.
People from the yamen and ordinary people have always been in two different worlds. If they accidentally collided with each other and were beaten to death in the street, no one would stand up.
"From the outside, it seems that the Zhang family doesn't have any sinister aura!"
Cui Cheng looked at the Zhang family's courtyard wall and frowned slightly.
If there are evil spirits present, the evil energy will definitely leak out.
But now at a glance, the Zhang family is peaceful, with no evil spirit leaking out at all, and it doesn't seem like there is any evil at all.
Hear the words.
Someone immediately answered the call.
"On the surface, Zhang Jiaming does not seem to have any evil spirit, but it is also possible that the Zhang family has hidden the evil spirit. You must know that if the place where evil spirits exist is well hidden, the evil spirit will not leak out."
After hearing the answer, Cui Cheng turned his head to look at the source of the voice. He saw that the speaker was a handsome young man dressed as a prince, and he couldn't help but slightly raised his hand.
"Brother Ming is indeed the rising star of Qiyao Sect. He is really well-informed."
"Brother Cui, you're welcome."
Ming Zhengyang smiled slightly, without showing any arrogance, but when his eyes glanced at Zhao Yue, he paused slightly, but then quickly looked back.
at this time.
Shen Changqing stood outside the door and looked at Zhang Yue: "Without my order, no one can be allowed to leave the Zhang family, but any trespassers will be killed without mercy."
"I humbly obey my orders!"
Zhang Yue nodded.
At this time, the door of Zhang Family Courtyard was ajar. Shen Changqing just pushed hard, pushed the door half open, and then stepped in.
They are both from a wealthy family in Lin'an City.
The layout of the Zhang family is no worse than that of the Zhao family.
But the only difference from the Zhao family was that the Zhang family gave him a feeling of emptiness.
right!
Very empty!
When he entered the Zhang family's mansion, there was no guard or servant, and Shen Changqing felt as if this was not the mansion of a great family, but an abandoned courtyard.
"Something weird!"
Nothing can be seen outside.
But when she actually entered the Zhang family, Shen Changqing discovered some clues.
As far as the eye can see.
Everything is normal.
The only abnormal thing is that it lacks the vitality it deserves.
The steps don't stop.
Shen Changqing walked towards the lobby.
Not long after, a man who looked like an old butler came towards me and looked at Shen Changqing with an unhappy expression: "You are not from my Zhang family, are you? Why do you suddenly appear here?"
Shen Changqing didn't reply and walked directly into the lobby.
Compared with the outside.
The lights in the lobby are brightly lit, even during the day.
There was a large table, with a group of people sitting around eating, while servants and maids were interspersed among them, serving various dishes.
Watch Shen Changqing enter.
The person sitting in the chief seat immediately paused with a smile on his face.
"It turns out that a guest has arrived. I, Zhang Sheng, haven't asked for your name yet!"
Following Zhang Sheng's words, everyone's movements paused for a moment, and then they turned their heads to look at where Shen Changqing was, their eyes fixed and motionless.
That moment.
Shen Changqing felt a little apprehensive in his heart, but he quickly recovered.
"I thought that the Zhang family was simply colluding with evil spirits, but I never thought that the Zhang family was no longer the original Zhang family."
He shook his head and sighed.
There are many regrets in the words.
At this time, others also withdrew their gaze.
Zhang Sheng smiled and said: "Your Excellency has come a long way, why don't we sit down together!"
Finished.
A servant walked up to Shen Changqing, and while speaking, he reached out and grabbed Shen Changqing's shoulder: "Please!"
His body flew away before his hands even touched his shoulders.
When it fell, it happened to hit several other servants.
The dishes were scattered all over the floor, and a huge noise was heard in the lobby, causing the others to pause again. They all turned their heads to look at Shen Changqing, with the same straight eyes as before.
But the difference is.
His eyes now have a hint of coldness to his bones.
The smile on Zhang Sheng's face, who was in charge, seemed to stiffen, but also seemed to become a little weirder.
He stood up from his position and said in a faint voice, "Why don't you give me some face?"
"Face is for living people, not for monsters like you!"
Shen Changqing sneered, he didn't want to hide anything, he just broke his face.
"What I didn't expect was that the Zhang family was already dead, and the former Zhang family's mansion was actually inhabited by a group of evil spirits!"
From the outside, there seems to be nothing wrong with the Zhang family.
But in Shen Changqing's eyes, no one in the Zhang family was alive.
Those sinister auras are perfectly hidden. If he had a keen sense of the sinister auras after his breakthrough, he would not be able to detect such anomalies.
But even so.
With so many evil spirits gathering together, there should be some evil atmosphere leaking out.
But the Zhang family doesn’t have it.
The entire Zhang Mansion seemed to be covered by a huge barrier, covering up all the weak evil aura.
now.
There was a strong wind blowing behind me.
Shen Changqing turned sideways, unsheathed the long sword at his waist, and suddenly the strong wind cut him off.
Black blood sprayed out, and the two corpses fell to the ground. If you looked carefully, it was the old housekeeper you met at the beginning.
But the difference is.
Now the old housekeeper's face is rotten, as if he has been dead for a long time. Even though his body is cut into two parts, he is still not dead. Instead, he is crawling slowly on the ground like a worm.
Another knife.
Cut off the old housekeeper's head.
The crawling upper body immediately lost its last vitality, and a foul rotten smell hit his face.
"Corpse puppet!"
Seeing such a scene, Shen Changqing immediately thought of some experiences.
Corpse puppet!
It is a weird method that can use the corpses of dead creatures to refine them into puppets.
These puppets will retain some memories of their lives and will act according to their instincts without any drive.
The old housekeeper in front of me is a zombie.
Then other people——
Thinking of this, Shen Changqing looked at Zhang Sheng and others, and sure enough, everyone's originally peaceful expressions turned violent, and they started to kill him one after another.
Take a step back.
The long knife poured out like moonlight, beheading a servant who rushed up. Black blood spurted out. The corpse that fell to the ground rotted at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a foul smell rose.
"It's a corpse puppet again!"
Seeing this, Shen Changqing confirmed his guess.
Corpse puppet!
All members of the Zhang family were refined into corpse puppets.
At first, he only thought that the Zhang family had become monsters similar to Zhuang Mingyuan, but now it seems that the Zhang family was even worse than becoming monsters.
You must first refine people into corpse puppets.
A dead person is needed as a medium.
In other words, without anyone noticing, the entire Zhang family was wiped out, and then everyone was turned into corpse puppets to continue their daily activities without being noticed by others.
Don't wait for Shen Changqing to think too much.
Everyone else has already been killed.
Shen Changqing did not hesitate, and the long sword burst out with a strong wind, killing all the corpses that came close to him one by one.
Although the corpse puppet is strong.
But it can only threaten some warriors in the forging realm.
As long as you reach the Tongmai realm, ordinary corpse puppets can't do anything about it.
The corpse puppets currently being refined by the Zhang family and others are only the lowest level corpse puppets, and they are not very powerful in terms of strength.
but.
Corpse puppets also have their difficulties.
That is, if the head is not cut off, the corpse puppet will not die easily. Even if it is cut into two parts, it can still survive.
This - is the most difficult part of dealing with corpse puppets.
There is no guarantee that every blow will be decapitated, so there is no way to quickly clean up the corpse puppets. If it is consumed for too long, it will easily be overwhelmed by the corpse puppets.
Because the corpse puppet is the biggest trouble.
It's all about quantity.
Fortunately.
Although everyone in the Zhang family has now become corpse puppets, the number is small, only dozens at a glance, so it is not very difficult for Shen Changqing to deal with them.
but.
Shen Changqing's current attention is not on these corpse puppets.
Originally, he thought that the Zhang family had taken refuge in evil spirits, so the Zhang family would be a certain threat, but now the Zhang family has long been wiped out, and those who had been active in the past were zombie puppets.
This way.
Things are not that simple anymore.
"There are only two possibilities for refining a corpse puppet. One is that evil-level monsters appear, and the other is that there is a powerful demon."
"Guangyuan Mansion has a guardian envoy. If there really is a evil-level monster, there is no way that there is no news at all. Although the barrier covering the Zhang family is powerful, there is absolutely no way to block the evil aura of the evil-level monster. .
There is only one explanation left, there is a powerful demon hiding in the Zhang family!"
Shen Changqing's eyes were cold, but there was not much fear in his heart.
No matter how strong the hidden demon is, it is impossible to surpass the innate realm. After all, a small city like Lin'an City is not worthy of having a master-level demon dormant.
As for the other party's purpose, whether it could be that drop of demon blood, that's even more nonsense.
Although the essence and blood of low-level demons are precious.
But for the strong masters, it doesn't have much temptation.
Talking about the essence and blood of mid-level monsters is another matter.
Furthermore.
The monster hiding in the Zhang family never really showed up from the beginning to the end after he destroyed the Eternal Alliance plan, so there are only two explanations.
First, it is inconvenient for the demon to show up, for example, if he is injured, or the other party is not sure that he can deal with him.
two is.
The demon was originally in Zhang's house, but now he has left.
But looking at the current situation of many corpses in the Zhang family, Shen Changqing does not think that the demon has left.
so.
That leaves only the previous possibility.
The demon is hiding in the Zhang family, but due to certain things, he cannot show up easily.
