The two masters and apprentices set out on the road again. When Uncle Jiu saw Feng Yi practicing so hard, he started to think twice and speeded up the journey. Unexpectedly, Feng Yi could not only keep up but also chat and laugh with him. His performance was indeed excellent.
Not long after, the master and apprentice arrived at the village where zombies were infested.
A few young people looked around at the intersection. When they saw Uncle Jiu, they ran towards the village and shouted, "Here we come, the Taoist priest is here."
"The Taoist priest came day and night to help us get rid of the zombies. On behalf of all the villagers in Wujiacun, I thank the Taoist priest Gao Yi, but I don't know the elder's surname." An old man who was over seventy years old and seemed to have high moral character walked away under the support of everyone.
He stepped forward and asked.
"I am Lin Zhengying, Taoist Master Qianhe's senior brother." Uncle Jiu introduced himself.
"It turns out to be Taoist Master Lin, please come inside."
The people in the village did not show much enthusiasm. Feng didn't understand it at first, but he soon figured it out.
Today's transportation is not very convenient, even if it is a meeting between brothers and sisters
It’s very difficult to face, plus in this era there are dojos.
What is a dojo? To put it simply, it is a place where practitioners are sheltered.
Just like Renjia Town, where Uncle Jiu is located, he is a Taoist priest with profound magical powers. If there are ghosts and zombies around the town or villages, or if you want to move graves to check Feng Shui, you have to go to him.
Even if a Taoist priest who is more powerful than Uncle Jiu later falls in love with Renjia Town, he cannot rob it at will, let alone snatch people alive. This is the most basic rule.
And the Wujia Village where they are now is the dojo of Taoist Master Qianhe, so even fellow apprentices and Uncle Jiu need to avoid taboos.
This time, Taoist Master Qianhe was out on business, so he sent a message to Uncle Jiu asking for his help, and Uncle Jiu came over.
People in the village don't know Uncle Jiu's name, so it makes sense that they don't treat him with respect.
Uncle Jiu entered the village ancestral hall surrounded by a group of people. He saw a corpse placed in the center of the room. The body had turned from white to purple. Looking at the fingers, the nails had turned black and had the tendency to grow.
Uncle Jiu frowned and tilted the corpse's head, and felt something at the neck.
Two discolored blood holes were found.
"It was indeed bitten by a zombie." Uncle Jiu said.
"Are there really zombies?"
"It's scary, Taoist Lin, what should we do?"
"Yes, Director Lin, I heard that the zombie's body is extremely hard and cannot be beaten at all, and it will bite anyone it sees... Us, none of us can beat it."
When the villagers heard Uncle Jiu's words, they all panicked and their faces changed drastically.
"Don't panic, everyone, zombies are not invincible."
Uncle Jiu advised: "Zombies are afraid of glutinous rice. Just sprinkle some glutinous rice in the front room and it will be fine. If you see a zombie, sprinkle the glutinous rice on it and run away. It won't be able to catch up with you."
"
"I see."
"That's good. Thank you, Taoist Master Lin, for your guidance..."
"And..." Uncle Jiu interrupted the villagers and pointed at the dead body: "This body is about to transform into a corpse and must be burned."
"Okay, hurry up, build a pile of firewood outside and burn the body." Village Chief Wu saw that Uncle Jiu's words were sound and he believed most of them.
The attitude is also much more respectful than before.
"After all this is done, everyone will go home and wait. Don't go out easily. Our master and apprentice will tell everyone after we eliminate the zombies." Uncle Jiu said after arranging everything.
"Just follow Taoist Master Lin's instructions."
"Thank you, Taoist Lin."
“…”
After the master and apprentice came out of the village, Feng Yi said: "Master, where should we go next?"
"Let's take a walk around, there are so many living people in this village, the zombies won't run too far," Uncle Jiu said.
"Well..." Feng Yi blinked and asked curiously: "Master, why do some people turn into ghosts and some turn into zombies after death? Normally, don't they report to some underworld and then reincarnate?
What?"
Uncle Jiu explained as he walked: "Most people will go to the underworld on their own after death and be reincarnated normally. Those who have committed many evil deeds will have to suffer in hell and can be reincarnated only after their sins are washed away.
As for ghosts, they died abnormally and their resentment lingers in their hearts.
Or you may have obsessions and stubbornly stay in this world..."
"That's not right, Master, aren't there ghosts in the underworld? They don't catch ghosts?" Feng Yi interrupted and asked.
Uncle Jiu showed a strange smile: "They have done everything, what should we do?"
Feng Yi was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that it seemed that the gang of ghosts in the underworld were not as high-ranking as he thought, and they were often lazy and derelict in their duties.
"Ahem..." Uncle Jiu coughed lightly, drawing Feng Yi's attention back and continued: "As for zombies - after death, the three souls will leave the body first, and the seven souls will dissipate in the body.
But if the seven souls are not dissipated due to an accident, and the body is hidden in a damp place, it will become a zombie over time.
Without its three souls, a zombie has lost its thinking and memory, and will turn into a killing and blood-sucking monster... This is why I didn't attack you before."
"I see."
Feng Yi finally understood why Uncle Jiu let him go. Before, he thought it was because he was handsome, but now it seems that Uncle Jiu showed mercy because he realized that he was different from a zombie without intelligent thinking.
The master and apprentice walked around the village. Feng Yi moved his nose and pointed to the woods on one side: "Master, the zombies should be here."
"How do you know?" Uncle Jiu asked curiously.
Feng Yi pointed to his nose: "I smell the Yin Qi on the zombies."
Uncle Jiu: “…”
After walking a short distance with suspicion, Uncle Jiu also noticed the strong Yin energy remaining on the ground and was completely speechless.
Not only is his disciple faster than others in terms of cultivation speed, but his nose is also sharper than his own who has been practicing for a long time. He is simply born to exorcise demons, catch ghosts and kill zombies.
"You have just started, and you don't know magic yet. Follow my master. If a zombie appears behind you, pour your breath into the mahogany sword and stab it. Don't panic, understand?" Uncle Jiu warned.
"Yes." Feng Yi licked his lips. He didn't feel scared, but just nervous and excited.
After Uncle Jiu's explanation, he also understood the reason why his previous use of the Taomu Sword was useless. Without mana, the Taomu Sword could not function at all.
the desired effect.
The two of them walked some distance further inside, when two black figures made a shrill cry and rushed towards Uncle Jiu and Feng Yi. Uncle Jiu didn't panic, and rushed forward with the money sword in hand, Feng Yi was behind.
After looking at it, I saw that it was a zombie with black hair on both ends.
I just don't understand why they came running instead of jumping out.
Aren’t zombies supposed to be jumping around?
These two zombies were not very powerful in terms of movement speed or attack power. Uncle Jiu dodged their attack and then stabbed with his backhand. The money sword penetrated directly through the back of one zombie. The zombie screamed and shook its whole body.
, and soon lost its attack power.
Uncle Jiu stepped on it, pulled out the money sword, turned around and stabbed the other zombie's throat. His movements were smooth and gorgeous.
