Chapter 165: Revisiting old places and burying corpses in three ways
Zhou Shi turned around quickly, wanting to use gold wire fishing to take Yu Heng out of the tomb immediately.
But in front of him there was only a burial shovel inserted into the wall.
Yu Heng is missing.
"Yu Heng!" He was a little panicked. A big living person silently disappeared one meter away from him. What kind of incredible mechanism is this?
"I'm here!"
The shouts and responses echoed in the tomb at the same time. Zhou Shi was surprised. He didn't expect to get Yu Heng's response so quickly, let alone which direction the response came from!
At the top of the high platform, inside the coffin with the lid lifted, a familiar figure waved to him.
"You, why did you run up there?"
"I didn't know! I'll be sitting here in the blink of an eye...wait for me to come down!"
As Yu Heng climbed out of the coffin, he was also thinking. This method is somewhat similar to Zhang Huanming's Bagua transportation, except that his method swapped the positions of two things, and I was just teleported...
Wrong!
"Shopkeeper Zhou, corpse!"
"What?"
"The body in the coffin has switched places with me! Where is it?"
Zhou Shi's hair stood up. He looked around. Where was the shadow of a corpse?
At this time, all the ever-burning lamps swayed in the windless underground tomb, and the flames changed from orange to faint blue!
Yin Fire!
"Be careful!"
When he heard Yu Heng's alarm, Zhou Shi felt a chill in the back of his head and hurriedly lowered his head.
With a "buzz" sound, the burial shovel scraped against his hair.
What?
He looked up and saw a naked corpse holding a burial shovel, about to break him in half with a slash!
Even at this critical moment, Zhou Shi did not stop thinking because of fear.
Is this the body lying in the coffin? Has it changed position with Yu Heng? Can it be dealt with?
It should work.
He exerted force with his feet and kicked off the wall, causing the bottom of the body to fall into the air.
Taking this opportunity, he saw the whole body of the corpse clearly: it was well preserved, well muscled, with long hands and short legs. It was definitely not the corpse of a prince or noble.
It is not the owner of this tomb, but a tomb robber like Zhou Shi and Yu Heng.
Jin Xiu did not let go. He was pulled back to the wall by gravity and kicked on the body.
Stiff, but not hard, this is an unrefined walking corpse!
Opener!
Unexpectedly, the corpse pulled back the burial shovel and used the shovel blade to receive the stone-breaking palm.
There was a numbness in his arms, and Zhou Shi's teeth began to fight uncontrollably! The powerful internal force was actually transformed into vibrations by the corpse shovel!
The corpse shovel had already fallen in the corpse's hand and was coming towards him from the waist!
"This guy moves so fast, and he can use Yu Heng's burial shovel flexibly!"
The speed is so fast that there is no way to avoid it!
At the critical moment, Zhou Shi channeled his internal force and stretched out his two fingers, trying to use them to catch the shovel blade that was cutting through iron like mud!
"锵——"
The sound of iron weapons clashing echoed in the tomb chamber, and Zhou Shi really took the blow from the burial shovel with his hand on the tablet!
Here it comes again... The strong shock caused his arms to hang down weakly, as if every muscle was twitching.
"Damn it, I can't use my strength..." There was severe pain in the middle finger of my right hand that was in contact with the shovel blade. It seemed that the injury was serious.
He wanted to withdraw his right hand, but found that the blade of the shovel was firmly stuck to it, and under the qi-gazing technique, the Yin Qi on the entire burial shovel suddenly changed——
Suddenly, three balls of Yin Qi broke away from the burial shovel, turned into three human figures, and came to catch him!
What is this!
"That's a way to bury the soul! Leave quickly!"
Without waiting for Yu Heng on the high platform to remind him, Zhou Shi had already thrown out the fishing hook, flew to the high platform where the coffin was parked, and landed dexterously next to Yu Heng.
"Beautiful!" Yu Heng applauded Zhou Shi's circus-like movement just now.
"Stop kidding, that thing is weird!"
"Yes. I saw that he performed the corpse burial shovel very well, and he also used the soul burial method secretly passed down by the corpse burial people! If you hadn't gotten out of the way just now, all three of your souls and seven souls would have been extracted.
Sealed in the burial shovel..."
Only then did Yu Heng notice that Zhou Shi's right hand was full of blood. Two-thirds of his middle finger had been cut off, with only a layer of skin connected to the palm!
"Your hands..."
"Ah, your burial shovel will vibrate violently when it is exerted. Is that how you rely on it to break open the stone? You have learned a lot."
Yu Heng originally wanted to remind him to deal with the wound quickly and save the finger. Unexpectedly, he just rubbed the broken finger and reattached it!
What kind of method is this? Medical skills?
Zhou Shi checked the wound and found that the pain was still strong, but his fingers could move freely.
Lady Xu’s protection is really powerful...
"I'm afraid the person who buries the body knows all the tricks. Could you please explain it all at once so that I can be on guard." Zhou Shi waved his hand and said.
"Why do you make such an assertion? Whose body is it?"
"Shovel Lee."
Yu Heng turned to look at him and saw that only half of Shopkeeper Zhou's face was illuminated by the dark fire of the ever-burning lamp, making him look even more majestic.
"That legendary..."
"Yes, don't ask me how I knew it. In short, that guy broke into this tomb just like us and wanted to take away the few burial objects. The result..."
When Zhou Shi looked up at the high platform from under the ever-burning lamp where the Luoyang shovel was placed, Zhou Shi had a reaction deep in his memory, and suddenly remembered why he felt familiar.
This is where he saw in the memory attached to Huo Zhezi, the burial place of the legendary Shovel Li!
Looking at those ever-burning lamps again, if the ordinary lamps were fueled by whale oil, what was the reason for their instantaneous switch to dark fire... He was vaguely aware of the origin of Huo Zhezi.
Yu Heng was dubious about Zhou Shi's judgment, but he didn't delve into it. He looked at the body in the distance below that seemed to have lost its target and was looking left and right, and said:
"The burial shovel is our team's exclusive weapon. In addition to the general use of cutting rocks and digging soil, there are also three secret methods - corpse burial, soul burial, and life-cutting. They were all created to bury corpses that have undergone corpse transformation.
Means.
"The corpse-burying method can bury the target touched by the corpse shovel three feet underground. The soul-burial method has already been mentioned. As for the method of extinguishing life, it is the most powerful method among the corpse buryers. It can seize life.
Regardless of whether they are humans, souls or ghosts, they will all lose their lives!"
"Is it also useful for evil ghosts?" Zhou Shi was slightly surprised.
"Yes."
Sure enough, no matter which profession or profession, as long as you practice to the extreme, you will have terrifying abilities.
"Also, there should be a Bagua array arranged in this tomb. As long as it comes into contact with a certain burial object, it will be activated, allowing the tomb robbers to change places with the corpse in the coffin. This is how I came up just now."
In this way, the tomb robber will be trapped in the coffin and die due to hatred, and become a walking corpse due to the strong yin energy around him or some mechanism in the tomb... But Shovel Li relied on his superb tomb robbing skills to avoid the mechanism.
And the coffin was opened, so Yu Heng could push the coffin lid open.
And... Zhou Shi recalled that at the end of that memory, An Rudao, a man in phoenix clothes, came to this tomb and took away Shovel Li's fire seal.
An Rudao must have done something in the tomb...
"Hey, he's here."
Just as Yu Heng said, Shovel Li raised his head and "eye-to-eye" with Zhou Shi.
Zhou Shi saw clearly that Shovel Li's eye sockets turned into two black holes, the same fate as his previous tomb robber.
He walked towards the high platform, but stepped on a stone brick covered with mechanisms.
