Chapter 8: The Origin of Zombies
Just as Xie Yan wanted to inquire about the impact of the system's causal inheritance, and whether the consequences were serious, suddenly two exclamations came from outside the house.
"Master, it's not good, it's not good!" A moment later, Qiusheng and Wencai, who had just come back from lighting incense, hurriedly ran in.
Looking at Xie Yan, who was sitting on the side, Uncle Jiu, who felt deeply embarrassed, raised his eyebrows and scolded: "What do you look like in a hurry?"
Seeing that the master was angry, Wen Cai hurriedly lit up the incense on his hand, and said breathlessly: "Master, master, look!"
I saw that the three incense sticks were burned into the shape of two short and one long, Uncle Nine looked at his eyebrows and frowned again, took the incense and sighed and said: "People are most afraid of three long and two short, and the incense is the most taboo to burn two short and one long just like this, hey, this incense comes out of the house, there must be someone mourning, junior brother, the two of us should be more careful tonight." β
As soon as he said this, Wen Cai next to him was nothing, because he knew how many catties and taels he had.
But Qiusheng was a little unhappy at this time, only to see him pull Uncle Jiu aside and say: "Master, this Xie Daochang is younger than me and Wencai, what does it mean to rely on the master and him, can he be reliable? I have been with the master for so long, it is estimated that his knowledge and mana may not be better than me." β
After hearing what he said, Uncle Nine scolded in a low voice: "Stinky boy, do you think that people in the whole world are like the two of you? are so old, and they still have nothing to achieve in practice, like you have practiced for more than ten years before you are considered to be at the beginning of spell casting (equivalent to the third layer of qi refining), and Wencai is even more indisputable to touch the threshold (equivalent to the first layer of qi refining). Why do I want you to call Daoist Xie Yan, don't you understand? Only when you have cultivated to a certain extent that you can take charge of your own can you take the title of Dao Chief. You stupid!" After speaking, he slapped Qiusheng's head in some confusion.
Qiusheng's heart was full of disbelief at this time, and he looked straight at Uncle Jiu and said, "How is it possible?" Master, didn't you say that there is a lack of spiritual energy today, and there is no aid from the elixir, so if you want to achieve something, you have to accumulate over time?"
Uncle Nine nodded and said, "Yes, I said so, but there are always one or two exceptions, if the qualifications, talents, and comprehension of the cultivation are all anti-heaven existences, they will break the convention." I didn't tell you before because I was afraid of damaging your self-confidence. Now there is one in front of him, a few days ago, his cultivation was only at the second level of qi refining, but now there is definitely more than four layers of qi refining. One day, he will definitely surpass him as a teacher, and after a few years, he is more likely to become the only heavenly master who has reached the legendary realm of the unity of heaven and man. Then he looked at Qiusheng who looked sluggish, patted him on the shoulder, leaned in and said, "This is an opportunity, you have to take advantage of it." β
Qiusheng naturally knew what Uncle Jiu meant, and at this moment, he still didn't believe that someone was so young and cultivated so high, and decided that Xie Yan must have eaten pills to increase cultivation speed or directly improve cultivation, if the relationship is established at this time, if there is no accident, he will definitely benefit for life in the future, at least one or two pills can still be given.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly let go of Uncle Jiu, straightened up, and said to Xie Yan with a flattering face: "Uncle Shi, do you want to drink tea?"
Seeing that there was still tea in Xie Yan's cup, he hurriedly changed his words and said, "Master, are you tired, I'll help you beat your back." The title changed directly from Xie Daochang to Uncle Shi, and the other three were all stunned. Uncle Nine was also a little dumbfounded when he looked at this scene, and he didn't come back to his senses for a while, and muttered to himself: "This kid reacts fast enough!"
Wen Cai also deliberately asked beside him: "Master, did the senior brother take the wrong medicine? So enthusiastic and respectful to Daochang Xie? I have never done this to the master before?" Uncle Nine glared at him and said, "I want you to talk more, get out of the way." β
Xie Yan listened to the cautious conversation between the two a lot, and Uncle Nine deliberately did not hide it, hoping that one day, Xie Yan would take care of his two apprentices.
Xie Yan sighed in his heart, although Uncle Nine didn't do much to teach his disciples, he really cared about and cared for his apprentices. But after thinking about it, becoming a Heavenly Master? Just kidding, with the help of the system, the Yuan Infant Period is just beginning! My goal is to have no tooth decayγγ Ahh I always feel mixed in with an advertising slogan.
But he was confident, and he believed that all my dreams and goals could become a reality with my madness system. The Dao technique of this body can all be the credit of the system.
You must know that Maoshan magic is broad and profound, even if it is a basic spell, a person has to work hard for at least ten years to understand it thoroughly. Xie Yan has achieved his current achievements in just a few days, and all of this is due to the system. As mentioned earlier, the system directly packaged all the knowledge in Xie Yan's mind, and what Xie Yan had to do was to integrate it and improve his mana.
In other words, it's to brush up on skill proficiency and add a magic cap to yourself.
Moreover, now that the system has also improved his qualifications, and with the assistance of the system, the exercises are still running all the time, and the day he practices is almost equivalent to several times that of others, thus making his cultivation a thousand miles a day.
When it comes to physique, there is indeed a difference between people in modern times and people in myths and legends.
In myths and legends, any ordinary person has the qualifications to practice, although the qualifications are not high, but they are already inferior compared to modern times. Nowadays, most of the qualifications of people in cultivation are inferior among the inferior, and a person with medium qualifications is now a genius.
In mythology, the grade of qualification is very clear, and when accepting disciples, they generally look at the qualifications first, and there is a way that is destined for seven points, two points of luck, and the last point depends on hard work. One can imagine how important a person's qualifications are.
Therefore, the levels of qualifications are naturally divided, and there are probably four levels: inferior, medium, superior, and innate Dao body.
Xie Yan belongs to the top of the list, and this qualification is cultivated by the head of the sect as a true disciple in myths and legends.
Wen Cai couldn't help but ask at this time: "Master, is that sentence just now what you said about Master Ren's house?" "It seems that Wencai really has little tendons in his head, and his thinking is too strong. After a while, I pulled the topic to something else.
Uncle Nine glared at him angrily and said, "Could it be this?" β
Wen Cai nodded with relief and said, "It's none of my business, I don't have to worry about it." "It's completely heartless.
Uncle Nine ignored him and said to Xie Yan, "Senior brother, do you have any good way to deal with it?"
Xie Yan pondered for a while, considering that before he figured out the good or bad cause and effect, he decided not to change the plot, so he said: "There is no good strategy, I can only try to limit it before finding a new grave, and then think of other ways." β
"Well, that's all there is to it. Uncle Nine couldn't help but look sad.
At this time, Qiusheng's untimely voice sounded, "Uncle Shi, otherwise I'll press your shoulder again." β
Xie Yan almost couldn't help but want to laugh, but Yu Guang couldn't help but endure when he saw Uncle Jiu's darkened face. Hurriedly said: "No need, don't be so polite, you can stand aside and rest first." β
Qiusheng nodded and walked to the side, and kept persuading in his mouth: "Be polite, be polite." "The facial expressions are very exaggerated, how do you look at it and feel contrived.
Uncle Jiu, who was sitting on the side, couldn't stand it anymore, and glared fiercely with murderous eyes.
Qiusheng only felt as if the weather had suddenly turned colder, and there was a cold air flowing through his body.
Then Uncle Nine said angrily: "Okay, now there is one thing waiting for us to settle it." β
The two of them were shocked, and honestly bowed their heads and stood aside. But then Wen Cai asked: "We don't have to take risks, it's none of our business, we don't have to worry about ourselves, everyone has their own lives, don't they." β
Qiusheng didn't pay attention to listening, so he said with some doubts: "What's the matter?"
Wen Cai replied casually: "The master just said that the surname Ren is going to be difficult........ Ah!Tingting!!" It is conceivable that Wencai's head is not only missing one tendon, but at least three, and it is only now that I remember that Ren Tingting is also a member of the Ren family.
Qiusheng also understood the cause and effect, but he still sneered on the side: "Didn't you say that you don't have to worry about yourself, everyone has their own lives?"
Wen Cai didn't care about it after hearing this, and said to Qiusheng: "Hey, you can't say that, if you can save your sweetheart's life, then getting married won't be a problem." After finishing speaking, he was going to step forward and plead with Uncle Nine and Xie Yan to find a way.
Qiusheng grabbed him, "Hey." β
Wen Cai didn't say angrily: "Hey." β
Qiusheng continued: "Fair play. β
Wen Cai immediately said, "Okay!" Saying that, the two looked at Uncle Nine and Xie Yan, and Qiu Sheng said, "Master, uncle, you have to think of a way." β
Xie Yan smiled and said, "We have already thought about it, otherwise why carry the coffin back." β
Wen Cai Qiusheng let out an 'oh' and asked, "Is there something wrong with this coffin?"
Xie Yan said: "The coffin is fine, but this dead man's problem is big." β
The two explained puzzled, and Qiusheng unconsciously said to himself: "Yes, it's been 20 years, and it's not rotten." β
Suddenly, the two reacted, hurriedly came to the coffin, and opened the lid together, followed by an exclamation, "Wow, Fa Fu!"
Uncle Nine hurriedly walked to the coffin, saw the characteristics of the corpse, his expression tightened, and said, "Hurry up and close the coffin lid!"
Then he muttered for a moment and said, "Hurry up and prepare paper, pens, ink, knives, and swords." β
The two didn't understand, and Wen Cai asked suspiciously, "What?"
Uncle Nine glanced at the two of them angrily and said, "Yellow paper, red pen, black ink, kitchen knife, wooden sword." Looking at the two people who went to prepare, Uncle Nine sighed helplessly, but he didn't say anything.
After a while, the things were prepared, and Uncle Nine caught a chicken and took some chicken blood for later use. γ
Wen Cai whispered beside Uncle Jiu again: "Does the master use chickens again?"
However, Uncle Nine said, "Huh?!", and immediately said with a smile: "Chicken... Chicken. Then he obediently walked aside.
Then Uncle Nine made a chicken blood ink fountain. (The ink fountain is a carpenter's tool, and it is rumored that the ancient ghosts were the most afraid of carpenters, and the ink fountain represents integrity, so it is used to cure ghosts.) Then Uncle Nine came back and walked around the house, half-pretentious and half-disciple said: "People are divided into good people and bad people, and corpses are divided into zombies and dead corpses." β
Wencai couldn't help but interject: "Master, people are not only divided into good people and bad people, but also men and women, is it uncle?" But what responded to him was Uncle Jiu's murderous eyes.
I only heard Uncle Nine scolding: "Master speaks, what are you talking about!?" Xie Yan was also a little depressed, don't do anything to me.
Fortunately, Uncle Nine was also accustomed to Wencai's inattention, and continued: "Old Lady Ren's corpse is the corpse that is about to turn into a zombie. β
Qiusheng asked at this time, "How can a corpse become a zombie?"
Wen Cai continued: "Yes, how can people become bad people?"
Uncle Nine said: "The reason why a person becomes a bad guy is because he is not angry, and the reason why a corpse becomes a zombie is because it has an extra breath." β
Qiusheng flicked the ink fountain and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Before a person dies, he is angry, he holds his breath, he sulks, and when he dies, he has a breath in his throat. "Uncle Nine is actually reading from the book, and these knowledge are all from the secret technique of Maoshan Mountain, and after the appearance of zombies in the movie, there is also a scene where Uncle Nine consults the secret technique of Maoshan to deal with zombies.
Wen Cai continued: "That is to die and not be angry. β
Qiusheng also agreed: "That's why I said that to be a man is to fight for energy, and the most important thing for a person to die is to cut off his anger, if he keeps getting angry, he will harm others and himself." β
Seeing that Uncle Jiu's face was about to change again, Xie Yan hurriedly said: "You better hurry up and play, you must know that in order to break the cause and effect and cultivate the evil way, the first person to bite the zombie is your own dearest, do you want to watch Ren Tingting being bitten to death by zombies?"
The first time the two of them heard such a statement, they were already there. hurriedly lowered his head without saying a word and got busy.
Uncle Nine also said at this time: "Let you play it, don't be full of resentment." Then he turned to Xie Yan and said, "Senior brother, I see that you are also tired for a day today, why don't you go and rest first, and leave the rest to the two of them." β
Xie Yan glanced at the two who were busy with their work, and said in his heart: It's good to hand it over to them, otherwise my task won't be completed. And it's good to be a master, all the dirty work is on the apprentice. Thinking so in his heart, he replied, "Senior brother, then I'll go and rest first." β
After saying hello to Qiusheng and Wencai, he went back to the back room to rest.
It was late at night, everything was quiet, and Xie Yan, who was sleeping soundly, was suddenly awakened by a strange noise, sat up suddenly, and then slowly lay down again.
He knew that the plot was back on track. Although the coffin is full of ink fountain lines, the bottom of the coffin is not so strong after being eaten by insects in the ground for twenty years, and Qiusheng and Wencai also ignore the bottom of the coffin because of carelessness (the plot requires).
And he also knew that Uncle Nine would go to check, but he also returned in vain because of Wencai. In the end, the zombie broke out of the coffin and turned Grandpa Ren into a zombie.
Xie Yan knew the reason, but he would not ruin the plot. After all, the old lady Ren has not completely turned into a zombie now, and there is no reward for destroying it.
Maybe Master Ren can trigger a task after turning into a zombie, Xie Yanmei thought with a smile.
Immediately as he was about to go back to sleep, he just closed his eyes when he was awakened by a sound from the system.
