Xu Ce smiled faintly, held his head high and said:
"If you are upright, you are not afraid of slanting shadows; your heart is clear, and you are not afraid of night terrors!"
"You have a clear conscience and are not afraid of night terrors. Little brother, based on your words, you can stay in Yizhuang tonight.
It’s just that Yizhuang’s conditions are limited, so I hope my little brother won’t dislike it.”
"Uncle Jiu, you're so welcome. I'm so grateful to have a place to spend the night."
"Inside please."
Entering Yizhuang, it turned out to be just like the scene in the movie, quite shabby.
However, one thing surprised Xu Ce. Uncle Jiu, a young boy of ten thousand years, was quite particular. Although the Yizhuang was rundown, the things inside were neat and orderly, and the ground was clean and tidy.
"Little brother, remember, the hut is on the right.
Also, don’t go into the room on the left.”
Uncle Jiu pointed in two directions and said.
Xu Ce said curiously:
"Why can't you enter the room on the left?"
Uncle Jiu smiled and said:
"This is Yizhuang. What is Yizhuang here for? It is to store the remains of the deceased.
The room on the left is the morgue."
Morgue!
When Xu Ce heard these three words, instead of being afraid, he was very excited. That was where he was going to sign in!
However, in front of Uncle Jiu, Xu Ce naturally couldn't say anything else. If he was misunderstood as a thief who stole the body, he wouldn't be able to tell clearly.
Xu Ce nodded seriously and said:
"Uncle Jiu, I understand."
"Well, come with me, I'll take you to your room."
Uncle Jiu walked forward and when he entered the living room, Xu Ce also saw another Taoist priest, wearing a pair of glasses and a Taoist robe. He should be Uncle Jiu's fellow disciple, the Taoist Master with Four Eyes.
I remember that it was Taoist Master Siyan who took over the job of driving away corpses. He had no place to go at night, so he stayed at Uncle Jiu's place like him.
Uncle Jiu did not introduce him, so Xu Ce nodded to Taoist Priest Four Eyes as a greeting.
After a while, the lights in Yizhuang went out and fell into the silence of the night.
Xu Ce was not sleepy at all and was extremely excited. He was thinking about the morgue and his mind was filled with signing in matters.
It wasn't until after the fifth watch that Xu Ce got up.
He was not sure whether Uncle Jiu would be careful and vigilant to observe in secret. After all, he was a stranger, so he opened the door as if he was sleepy and had woken up from urination to find the hut.
Then he deliberately took the wrong path in a daze, walked towards the morgue on the left, and opened the morgue door very naturally.
Xu Ce looked back and saw that no one was there. At the same time, after he entered the morgue, a system prompt appeared in his mind.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for arriving at the check-in coordinate point, the three-minute countdown begins..."
Three minutes, neither long nor short, Xu Ce had nothing to do, so he looked around with the dim light in the morgue.
Even with the god-level sign-in system and palm thunder, he still felt terrified. It was the first time in his life to visit such a scary place. It was really scary.
Seven coffins, and a row of zombie "customer masters" with four eyes...
Suddenly, a subtle thumping sound appeared in Xu Ce's ears. Looking for the sound, he saw the sound of a coffin in the dim light.
For a moment, Xu Ce broke out in a cold sweat. How could he be so lucky that he happened to encounter a zombie?
Xu Ce looked at the countdown in the system,
"There are still 2 minutes and 17 seconds left before the sign-in ends..."
An MMP popped up in Xu Ce's mind, how to break it?
"System, what will happen if I leave the morgue during the sign-in time?"
"Ding, the sign-in task will fail and you will be punished with double the sign-in time until the sign-in task is completed."
Xu Ce was depressed and gritted his teeth. Three minutes had already made his heart ache. Double it would be six minutes. If he failed again, it would be twelve minutes.
Xu Ce prepared the thunder in his palm, take a look first, and fight!
At this time, a flash of inspiration flashed in Xu Ce's mind. That's not right. I remember that in the original work, it seemed that the transformation was not a real zombie, but the trouble caused by the unlucky boy Qiu Sheng, the apprentice of Uncle Jiu!
The grandson secretly hid in the coffin just to scare Wen Cai.
It just happened that Wen Cai hadn't come over yet, so he met him first.
Wencai, on the other hand, is another apprentice of Uncle Jiu. He is simple and honest by nature, and a bit silly.
Thinking of this, Xu Ce's heart suddenly relaxed a lot.
Moreover, a playful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he had the idea of teasing Qiu Sheng.
Xu Ce looked behind him and saw nine zombie "customer masters" dressed in Qing Dynasty official costumes.
hey-hey……
Xu Ce walked up to the zombie and looked at the talisman affixed between the eyebrows. It was quite stable. If the talisman was on the zombie's eyebrows, there would be no need to worry about the corpse transforming.
Then they started doing physical work, carrying the nine zombies one by one to the coffin where Qiu Sheng slept, and forming a circle.
Then, Xu Ce slowly pushed the coffin lid open to create a gap as wide as his palm.
Crunch…
With a sound, a hand poked out from the gap in the coffin lid. The nails were all black. It looked absolutely scary at first glance.
However, Xu Ce knew that the person inside was Qiu Sheng, so he smiled mischievously, grabbed the arm of the zombie behind him, and reached out with Qiu Sheng's hand.
"Hey, that's not right. Wen Cai's hands should be quite fleshy. These hands are so skinny, why are they still cold?
Could it be that he also wants to scare me?"
Inside the coffin, a low murmur came.
Xu Ce pretended not to hear, pressed the zombie into the coffin, and then stood aside.
There was no need to hide deliberately, the light in the morgue was too dim, and it would be difficult to spot him immediately without staring at him.
roar!
Qiu Sheng let out a deliberate roar and suddenly used force to lift the lid of the coffin. He then grabbed the zombie's hand and "bounced" it up from the coffin.
Open your fangs and bite at the zombie.
The corners of Xu Ce's mouth twitched when he looked at it. This guy is so fierce, and he's not afraid of chipping his teeth.
"Damn it, my tooth hurts!"
Qiu Sheng bit down, gritted his teeth, and cursed while covering his chin:
"Wencai, you are such a bastard, did you put a steel plate around your neck?
It hurts me so much!"
However, the person opposite did not answer Qiu Sheng's words.
Qiu Sheng looked up depressedly. He was really shocked and paralyzed. This is not a literary talent!
Isn't this Uncle Siyan's "customer master"?
What he just bit was a zombie!
Qiu Sheng suddenly spat when he recalled it, wishing he could break off his teeth and throw them away.
If a zombie bites a person, it will turn into a corpse, but if a person bites a zombie, he will still be poisoned by corpse poison!
Qiu Sheng trembled all over, feeling like he was not feeling cold anymore. He must turn around and ask Master and the old man for help.
Xu Ce, who was watching the show next to him, almost burst into laughter and had to hold it back.
First of all, Qiu Sheng's makeup skills are really amazing. Put him and the "client master" of the Four-Eyed Daoist in a pile, and at first glance, it's really impossible to tell the real thing from the fake one.
Secondly, this guy is quite funny, biting zombies, which is really eye-opening.
Sigh~
Xu Ce accidentally touched something and made a slight noise.
Qiu Sheng, who was dressed as a zombie, was immediately frightened and fell backward.
But I felt someone behind me. I turned around and saw that it was a zombie again. I looked around and found that I was surrounded by zombies.
Qiu Sheng's scalp immediately felt numb.
However, he also saw some things about the world with Uncle Jiu. After a brief panic, he returned to normal, gritted his teeth and roared:
"Wencai, you bastard, get out of here!"
It's so embarrassing. He obviously planned carefully against Wen Cai, but in the end, Wen Cai reversed the plan and made him so embarrassed. He would not be a gentleman if he didn't take revenge!
