Hearing what he said, I hurriedly pulled up the clothes on my lower abdomen and found that a wound as long as two middle fingers had been scarred. The black scar was really shocking!
"Ouch!"
I only felt pain when I saw the wound. The severe pain of a muscle being torn apart made my lips dry and my face probably turned blue!
In severe pain, I looked around at the miserable situation around me. The broken corpses scattered around were nowhere to be found, and some were just fainted and dying people. It seemed that they were all Kong Qiang's accomplices.
It's strange. What we saw when we came here were clearly broken corpses, so why are their bodies put back together again? Could it be that those are also hallucinations?
My knife was inserted into a man's lower abdomen, and blood flowed all over the floor. Judging from his clothes, he seemed to be the captain Kong Qiang mentioned.
"Where's the mother-in-law?" I asked Jianxing in a low voice.
He smoked a cigarette and pointed behind me casually: "Behind you, she fainted when you lit the gunpowder, and I tied her up easily."
I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw the woman being tied up tightly, and when I saw the corner of her mouth curled up, I knew it must be Jian Xing who had dealt a cruel blow to her.
"I didn't expect that we survived this hell..."
I breathed a long sigh of relief, took the sword star and handed it to me with my teeth that had been ground into small particles, mixed the talisman water together, and applied it to the wound on my shoulder.
A bone-chilling coldness came quickly, and I felt that my whole body was quiet, as if I had been immersed in the melted water of Tianshan Mountain ice and snow, and obtained the purest cleansing.
Jian Xing was probably very tired, he was panting when he spoke: "Li Yang, where did that evil ghost go? Why did he suddenly let go of us?"
"I don't know, maybe she saw something that scared her..."
Before I finished speaking, my grandma appeared in front of us. Judging from the calm look on her face, she seemed to already know what was going on here!
I immediately understood why we were fine. It was because the evil spirit was afraid of grandma’s abilities!
"Grandma? Why are you here?"
I was surprised and happy. What surprised me was that her body was no longer what it used to be. The long journey was very hard on her body. What I was happy about was that seeing her made my heart calmer!
"If grandma hadn't come, wouldn't you have been taken away by the evil ghost long ago?"
As she spoke, grandma took out a small bag of glutinous rice mixed with talisman ash from her pocket and applied it on the back of my shoulder and neck. When she recited the incantation, a burst of sour black smoke came out of my wound. I was about to ask
The explanation was interrupted by grandma: "Don't argue yet, grandma will help you get rid of the corpse poison now."
After a while, grandma took the bag of glutinous rice off my neck and showed it to me. I saw that the originally white glutinous rice had turned black and purple.
"If you are bitten by a person infected with corpse energy, you must deal with it as soon as possible. Otherwise, you will lose your life at worst, and your vitality will be severely damaged at worst, and you will become a useless person."
As she spoke, grandma wrapped the dirty glutinous rice in a black cloth bag. She looked at the mother-in-law with a worried look: "Mother-in-law, she was possessed by an elder from our village. The purpose is to bring us in to organize these tomb robbers.
Make a big mistake."
She sighed, stuffed the talisman into her mother-in-law's mouth, and then said: "But we were a step too late after all. The poisonous zombie evil spirit not only caused my mother-in-law to be infected with corpse energy, but also cast spells to make these people half-dead and kill each other. Fortunately,
I arrived in time, otherwise I don’t know how serious the consequences of this matter would be."
This situation was exactly as we expected. The mother-in-law was possessed by an evil spirit for no apparent reason. She got the inspiration from our ancestors before leading us into the mountains. Fortunately, no one died, and the corpse poison did not spread outside the mountains. As for me stabbing the captain, it was also
It's just helpless self-defense.
It didn't take long for the mother-in-law to be revived by grandma, and we also bandaged the wounds of the tomb robber captain and the injured person. Although they didn't wake up for the time being, it didn't matter if they didn't have fatal injuries.
Grandma was not afraid of trouble, and she led Jianxing and me to the coffin that was covered with charms. I looked inside and saw that the coffin was red and white, with a pair of black human bones lying twisted inside, holding a
There was an empty jar, and a purple-black blanket was spread underneath. Other than that, there were no other burial objects inside.
Seeing such strange coffins and skeletons, even me, an "old Jianghu" who followed my grandma around every village since childhood, was secretly surprised: "Grandma, what is the name of this coffin?"
Grandma frowned deeply and said thoughtfully: "This is a very rare burial method. Some people call it Gu burial, while others call it living death burial. The method is cruel and weird. It was rare even in the past."
Jianxing felt very confused: "Why is this so cruel and weird? Aren't you just poor and don't have any funeral objects?"
Grandma smiled slightly and explained: "Gu burial or living death burial is when people sleep in the coffin with a jar of poisonous insects before death, and then make two small holes on the outside of the coffin so that the people inside can breathe.
Because a person was crucified, he could only let the poisonous insects eat his own blood and bite his muscles. This pain lasted for three to four days before he died from the extreme pain."
"Oh my god! Who the hell came up with these ways to harm people?"
Jian Xing shuddered coldly, and my face suddenly changed after hearing this: "I feel like my scalp is numb just thinking about it!"
Grandma's mouth curved, with an expression of being surprised by the storm: "What kind of numbing is this? What is really annoying is that the person who lay down in the coffin to die did so of his own free will!"
"What? Voluntarily!?"
Jianxing and I exclaimed at the same time: "Why did he do this? Is it because he is mentally retarded?"
"It's not because of being stupid, but because it has a specific purpose!"
At this point, grandma frowned deeply: "This method of death can bring about strong resentment and evil spirits. A person who can use this method to turn himself into such a fierce ghost must not be an ordinary person, and his purpose is naturally unpredictable.
I believe this is also the purpose why our ancestors brought us here!"
Even my well-informed grandma is so worried. It seems that this matter is far more than we imagined!
"Damn, it's all the fault of these tomb robbers. If it hadn't been for them, we wouldn't have suffered like this!"
Jianxing got angry and kicked the unconscious captain.
"By the way, I heard these tomb robbers say that the reason why they come here to dig is because they are looking for a magic weapon!"
Thinking of this, I hurriedly searched the captain to see what I could find, and I actually found a few drawings!
