If only the spiritual energy near this village is polluted, that would be okay. But if all the spiritual energy in this world is like this...
Tao Xiaowu shook his head slightly, these have nothing to do with him!
The three deserters were still grilling meat for Tao Xiaowu, still planning to hug their thighs.
However, at this time, Tao Xiaowu's interest was waning. If the time hadn't come yet, he would have gone back immediately.
"Taoist priest, where have you been? This is your barbecue!"
I saw Tao Xiaowu come back.
A deserter came running over and said flatteringly.
Tao Xiaowu just said: "Just take a walk. Yes, have you met many powerful Taoists?"
"I've only heard of it, but I've never seen such a powerful master as Taoist Master!" The deserter apologized with a smile.
"That's right, that zombie was so powerful, and you were able to take care of it all, Taoist Priest. I think Taoist Priest is the tallest person in the world..."
Such flattering gestures could not make Tao Xiaowu happy at all.
Raise your hand to stop these guys from talking anymore.
Number one in the world?
Tao Xiaowu is still very self-aware!
Don't let others hear it without laughing your head off.
Since these guys couldn't ask anything useful, Tao Xiaowu didn't bother to listen to what these guys said anymore.
Seeing this, the three deserters talked to each other and said: "Taoist Master, we are just a few ordinary soldiers, we have never seen any real masters.
But we heard that our Marshal Wang has real experts around him.
Moreover, he came from the Vajra Temple in the capital, and was a senior monk who worshiped in the previous dynasty!"
"oh?"
These few words really made Tao Xiaowu interested.
I asked a few questions, but unfortunately these guys really don't know much, and I couldn't find anything new if I asked them again.
Just when Tao Xiaowu was about to lose interest, another deserter racked his brains for a long time and said: "By the way, I saw a Taoist exorcism last time.
Driving a group of zombies by, oh, that really scared me out of my wits!"
"Drive out the corpse?" Tao Xiaowu's heart moved.
"Yes, corpse exorcism! Every prefecture and county has it! Even in some big towns, Taoists have established yizhuang."
When these deserters talked about driving away corpses, their tone seemed quite ordinary, as if it was commonplace.
When Tao Xiaowu heard this, his face looked strange: "Are there so many corpse hunters?"
"That's of course. If you're away from home, you could die accidentally. But you can't just die in a foreign land, right?
It must be that the corpse exorcists are required to drive the corpses back to their hometown for burial, so of course corpse exorcists are indispensable everywhere!"
Under the gushing stories of these deserters, Tao Xiaowu finally understood that transportation was inconvenient and the journey was difficult in ancient times.
Traveling thousands of miles away in modern times by car or plane only takes a few hours or more than ten hours at most.
However, at this time, we have to travel on the road for more than a month. If we miss the place, we have to sleep in the open air. Once we get sick, it is normal for us to die in a foreign land.
Therefore, it is normal for there to be a Yi Zhuang and to keep these corpses waiting for their families to transport them back. Or to have someone specialize in sending them back.
This is also the case in modern times, when transportation and commerce have become relatively developed, and it has begun to have...
If it were an era like the Yu Dynasty, only those from a wealthy official family would be able to help a spirit return home.
If ordinary people died of illness on the way, they would have to be hastily buried on the road.
But Tao Xiaowu thought that since there are Yizhuang everywhere, maybe I can talk to those Taoists...
Now that I have come to this dungeon, there is no need to relax.
But every time you travel through a dungeon, it costs millions of money, so of course it can’t be wasted!
"It's just right. Now that we've almost eaten, let's get on the road, right?"
I'm not familiar with this place, please take me to the nearest charity village..." Tao Xiaowu said.
After hearing Tao Xiaowu's words, the three deserters looked surprised and agreed repeatedly, wishing they could be like cows and horses and let Tao Xiaowu ride on them.
It's because this generation was originally densely populated and quite wealthy, but it went through several wars and the post-war plague, resulting in countless deaths.
There are several huge mass graves along this road, and I heard they are very haunted.
As a result, business travel was cut off and few people took this road.
These deserters didn't take this very seriously at first.
I don't dare to go near bustling counties or cities, nor do I dare to go near major roads. I just want to rob some lone passers-by on such small roads...
However, after what happened last night, they were all scared out of their wits and no longer dared not believe in evil.
Even though it was broad daylight, I still felt safe being with an expert like Tao Xiaowu.
There were no words to say all the way, I was just on my way.
As expected, we passed several mass graves, trees and weeds, and a gloomy wind on the road.
Even when passing by nearby at noon, I feel a sudden chill on my body, let alone at night.
However, Tao Xiaowu just felt strange!
"Strange, this coldness is the earth's yin energy, but there is not much real yin energy. In other words, although this is a mass grave, there are not many ghosts...
But, why should mass graves be built in such a place where the Yin energy of the earth gathers? Could it be that there is an expert who specifically chose a spiritual place to build it? But, what is the use of this?
Is it to raise zombies?"
At this moment, Tao Xiaowu finally vaguely understood why he encountered zombies last night.
This kind of place where earth and yin gather is a place where corpses are raised.
If the conditions were just a little more coincidental, who knows how many zombies would be born here?
He was puzzled in his heart, but what he did along the way made Tao Xiaowu more and more confused.
After walking through these mass graves for an hour or two, the crowds gradually became denser and there were more and more pedestrians on the road.
"Taoist Master, ahead is Gaobo Town, a flood and drought dock, quite prosperous. I remember that there is a charity village outside this town!"
Tao Xiaowu listened and nodded slightly, with a serious look on his face. He felt that the closer he got to the bustling city and the place where people gathered, the weaker the spiritual energy between heaven and earth became.
Those deserters also diligently sent Tao Xiaowu to Nayizhuang.
However, Tao Xiaowu waved his hand and let them go.
Now that we have reached this prosperous place, there should be no danger anymore.
As for Tao Xiaowu himself, he was deep in thought.
"What's going on? Why does the spiritual energy begin to weaken as soon as we approach this town? Could it be..."
As for what it could be, Tao Xiaowu only had a vague idea and no clear concept.
I have been in and out of this town several times now.
This town is indeed a flood and drought dock. Although it is not large, it is quite bustling and lively with many shops.
The so-called sparrow is small, but it has all the internal organs!
But what really made Tao Xiaowu feel strange was that the closer he got to the town, the thinner the spiritual energy became.
As soon as you leave the town, you will find that the spiritual energy is restored as you get further away from the town, and weakens as you get closer to the town.
