Then she stretched out her hand again, clasped Lin Yue's pulse, and seemed to be feeling the pulse. After a while, she said: "The aroma of the zombie tree itself is not poisonous. Only after taking the toxins in the corpse-flavored apricot fruit, you will feel the pulse."
Only when encountering this kind of fragrance will they become insane, attack crazily and want to transmit the poison to others through the blood."
I understood what she meant and asked hurriedly: "Are you saying that Lin Yue had been poisoned by Shixiangxing first, so that's why she suddenly...?"
"That's right, I guess it was the Feng Shui master you mentioned that secretly set it up. He was sure that you would doubt him, and he would completely eradicate and burn the things he sent. This is what he set up." Mother-in-law
He took out a crystal bottle from his waist. There were many slug-like molluscs crawling freely in it, which looked a little disgusting.
However, I recognized that this was a poison used to absorb poison. When I was poisoned by a poison in a traditional Chinese medicine store, I was also sucked out of the poison by this poison. It seemed that she wanted to help Lin Yue detoxify.
"Damn it, Liu Banxian, you really didn't forget to plot against me even for this reason!" I clenched my fists and said angrily, "When I go back this time, I will definitely settle old and new accounts with him."
"Well said, next time the fat man will go back with you and teach this bastard a lesson. I didn't like that old boy last time, and now he has openly provoked my fat man. I won't interrupt the two of you.
If I have three dog legs, I will write the character "王" upside down." The fat man also echoed with some anger. After all, although he was not directly scratched by Lin Yue, he still suffered a lot.
Although I really wanted to complain about your surname, it makes no difference whether the character "王" is reversed, reversed, or turned in a circle, but considering that it is not appropriate to pour cold water on someone with the same hatred and hatred, I kept it in my heart.
"You two, please don't talk too early. What is the origin of the Liu Banxian you are talking about?" Granny Ghost said a little strangely while treating Lin Yue's poison: "As far as I know, cultivating zombie trees is a lost tradition.
After many years of technology, even I have never seen a living zombie tree. I only saw some wooden products left by my predecessors when I was practicing Gu."
According to what my mother-in-law said, it turns out that the zombie tree was a kind of evil magic that was popular in the Central Plains during the Yuan and Ming Dynasties. It is said that the evil magic from the Persian Manichaeism was integrated into the local method of growing dead wood in the Central Plains.
A strange and vicious method was formed.
Basically, the victim is made to eat the fruit of the zombie tree, which is the corpse-scented apricot, and then smell the woody fragrance. The combination of the two toxins will take effect, quickly taking away their consciousness, and turning the person into a person without emotions and emotions.
Consciousness, a zombie-like existence that only goes crazy and attacks.
This kind of zombie can actively bite and spread poison to other normal people. Therefore, if measures are not taken to stop it in time or controlled as soon as possible, it will spread from one to ten and spread to hundreds, just like a plague.
Large areas of densely populated areas have turned into zombie seas.
Of course, these zombies are not immortal. They are actually just crazy people. They may be more tolerant of pain and pay less attention to their injuries, but they will also be killed or die of exhaustion, and their corpses
It is a valuable new generation tree species.
Because the zombie tree does not have seeds in the ordinary botanical sense, it must use the corpse as a medium to combine the aroma of the wood with the toxins in the fruit, absorb the nutrients of human flesh and blood, and then it can slowly break away from the body and die.
Out, a new stiff tree grows from the heart and lungs.
The life cycle of the zombie tree is not very long. When the nutrients in the corpse it is parasitic on are completely exhausted, it will naturally wither slowly. Moreover, a tree can only recognize one corpse, because it is truly
Seeds are produced by meeting the three demanding conditions of "woody fragrance, fruit juice, and combination in a specific human body secretion environment" at the same time.
In other words, the poisoned corpse itself is a seed, a root, and soil. If the corpse is completely shriveled, the foundation of its existence will be gone, and replacing it with another corpse will be useless.
The only way to do this is to feed the corpse-scented apricots produced by the zombie tree to the next victim before it withers completely, and then smell the fragrance and turn into a crazy living zombie, and so on, repeating the process from generation to generation.
Therefore, the existence of this evil magic must rely on the continuous emergence of new victims in order to maintain it and not be lost. Naturally, it soon caused huge panic, as well as opposition and annihilation from those on the right path.
Those masters who are proficient in this art often need to ensure a certain supply of victims for a long time in order to maintain the continuation of the zombie tree forever. Otherwise, once there is a break in the middle, there will be no casting materials, and a clever woman will be unable to make a meal without rice. This evil
The technique has been lost.
Moreover, the corpse apricot is different from the zombie tree. It is a fresh fruit. After being picked from the tree, it will rot and lose its effectiveness after being stored in the air for a few days. Therefore, in order to maintain the relative stability of the number of tree species, we use these fruits every once in a while.
It will take some time to go out and find new victims.
Therefore, they are often very large targets, and their whereabouts are easily and inevitably exposed. They are quickly cleaned up by various forces, and it is almost impossible to survive.
Although the remaining fringe followers who only had a few trees in their hands were not completely wiped out, most of them did not dare to look for sacrifices in the limelight because they were afraid of being targeted by the public. Waiting for the dead trees in their hands to wither.
When the corpse-flavored apricot rotted, he gave up all his thoughts.
Therefore, after the Qing Dynasty, there were almost no rumors about the appearance of the Zombie Tree. Most of them were just remembered by evil sects who mentioned that there was such a vicious and efficient method in the past.
Logically speaking, this witchcraft is still alive today. Except for some wood that may remain, both the fruits and the living trees have long since disappeared. It is completely impossible to reproduce this method.
"Does Liu Banxian really have any weird methods, and can he even re-develop this kind of evil magic that has been dead for hundreds of years?" After listening to Granny Ghost's description, I thought incredulously, "Although Liu Banxian sometimes
It's quite impressive, but I haven't seen any particularly great abilities. Even my master can't possibly restore this extinct method out of thin air."
When my mother-in-law heard me inadvertently mention Liu Yishou, her face twitched slightly, she coughed and said, "That's natural. Liu Yishou is not a god and cannot reverse yin and yang. He even has to ask others for some rare Gu insects. Where can he revive them?"
A magic that has been dead for five hundred years. So I doubt that the Feng Shui master in your village has any special inheritance. The ancestors may have preserved some of them at that time, and quietly and on a small scale, they found sacrifices and cultivated them and passed them down to this day."
