After the matter of the imperial capital came to an end, Wu Ji, Wu Yi, Nanshan and the four of them discussed the next plan to facilitate mutual cooperation.

"By the way, I just heard a few seniors talk about a gentleman named 'Lao Ran', is he also a Dharma protector?" asked Yu Yuan.

"Yes. Wu Ji nodded.

Wu Yi patted his head and said with a slight self-reproach: "Blame me, I didn't introduce Qi just now." You already know the leader of our Lich Clan, Wu Ji, and the elder Mr. Nanshan. In addition, there are four Dharma Protectors, I count them as one, and there are also Wu Yan Dharma Protectors who have been to your Night Ray Lair, I think you know each other. The one who just walked out is also a Dharma protector, a great Dharma protector. The one we just called 'Lao Ran' is named Wu Ran, and he is also a Dharma protector. ”

"Wu Ran's protector. Eater Abyss nodded, his expression like this.

"Wu Ran is good at using Gu, especially corpse Gu, which can make the dead move, and become a puppet warrior who knows no pain and is not afraid of death. Wu Yi said.

"Corpse Gu?" "Corpse Gu?" Eater Yuan imagined a group of lifeless corpses, walking forward with a firm step, no matter how powerful the enemy was, they would never take half a step back, even if they used the crowd tactics to fill it, they could not hesitate to turn into a drop in the ocean.

Somewhere in the mountains a hundred miles away from here.

Far from the mountain with its cave and the villages with its houses, the mountain range is so low-lying and flat that if you don't get closer, you won't be able to see the secrets of this place, even if you stand on the top of a high mountain in the distance.

This was made three hundred years ago by Wu Ran in order not to attract people's attention.

When it was first reclaimed, there was not a single grass or leaf on this flat land, and only the new soil with a damp color could be seen, and there were ten half-cut vertical burial coffins neatly arranged on the flat new soil.

As time passed, the new soil had long since become the old soil, and the wind brought the seeds of the weeds from afar, so that the bare ground was covered with green grass again, and it became a large green meadow. The ten ebony coffins that were neatly buried vertically, after three hundred years of wind and rain, still did not decay, and were still erected there in good condition as they were buried three hundred years ago.

In these ten coffins are ten corpses that have been planted with corpse Gu, that is, corpse leaders.

Four hundred years ago, during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, the Lich Clan lost the war with the Inn. Everyone returned to Xiaodongtian, learned from the pain, and after some self-examination, they all decided that the reason for losing the war was that there were not as many masters in the clan as there were in the inn.

Therefore, since 400 years ago, the Lich Clan has focused on cultivating the younger generation, and following the model of the inn, the tasks are divided into several levels of difficulty, and distributed to the wizards, so that they can enter the human society to carry out. And it has also planted eyeliner in human society, just like inns have been established in inn branches in major cities, to transmit messages to the clan.

Of course, due to the inn's deep-rooted power in human society, the range of activities of the Lich Clan's outside the eyes is extremely limited.

And it was also at that time that everyone was busy cultivating the next generation of warriors, but Wu Ran's thinking was thinking from the other direction, he felt that the resources for cultivating the living were enough, and he didn't have to squeeze over to join in the fun, so he set his sights on the dead people.

He hid in the mountains where no one disturbed him, and devoted himself to studying Gu techniques that could act on corpses, and finally he cultivated a Gu worm after a few decades.

This kind of Gu worm burrows into the human ear, eats the internal cochlea, and burrows into the brain, which can transmit the instinctive murderous consciousness of the insect body to the brain of the corpse, and then the brain gives orders to the limbs to complete the corpse's action of attacking the living.

It took a lot of effort for Wu Ran to cultivate ten such Gu worms, which he named Corpse Gu.

He took ten corpse Gu out of the customs and left Xiaodongtian, hiding his identity and wandering around Kyushu, looking for the most suitable person to be the corpse leader.

Perhaps it is the will of heaven that Li Zicheng's entry into the customs is a misfortune for the Ming Dynasty, but it is a great luck for Wu Ran - the most important thing in the war years is the corpse.

In the cloudy season, the new ghosts on the old battlefield complain about the old ghosts crying, but they chirp at night. On the battlefield covered with dead corpses and severed limbs, no living person dared to approach, only Wu Ran carried ten precious Gu worms in his arms, and excitedly walked back and forth among the dead corpses of soldiers.

Wu Ran looked at the dead corpses everywhere, immersed in the joy of the harvest, he turned the corpses up one by one, and carefully examined them to see if there were any worthy of his corpse Gu.

Wu Ran was extremely cautious in the selection of corpses, often wandering around a certain battlefield for several days, but in the end he couldn't pick out a corpse that could be seen.

But it doesn't matter, at that time, war was indispensable, and corpses were also indispensable.

A certain general was defeated and tens of thousands of troops were lost.

A great victory in a certain place, annihilating tens of thousands of enemies.

Similar news came out one after another in the land of Kyushu, and the lives of ordinary soldiers were all in the word 'tens of thousands' at the end of the sentence.

Repeated wars have resulted in countless corpses.

Every time he heard the news of a big war, Wu Ran rushed over with great anticipation.

After about twenty years, Wu Ran finally gathered ten corpses, he planted the corpse Gu into the ears of the corpses, and found the best craftsmen at that time, using the best wood, to create ten solid and black coffins.

With ten coffins, Wu Ran returned to the small cave.

The corpse Gu burrows into the brain of the corpse, and after a period of fusion, it will become one with Bai Huahua's brain, and through the brain, it will absorb the nutrients in the corpse to survive.

At the same time, the corpse also needs to absorb the essence of heaven and earth to achieve the effect of warmth. Therefore, Wu Ran buried the coffin halfway, and the moonlight in the night light was transmitted into the coffin through the upper part, and the essence of the earth was transmitted into the coffin through the lower part.

After more than three hundred years of recuperation, even Wu Ran didn't know to what extent the corpse leader in the coffin had been cultivated.

The reflection of the bright moon in the small cave sky through the water of the Geumgang River hangs in the night sky, sprinkling a silvery light on the mountain range.

Wu Ran was covered in moonlight, standing in the open space in front of the ten coffins, stepping on the weeds under his feet. He took out a palm-sized copper bell from his bosom, and the tail of the copper bell was connected to an inch-long copper rod.

Wu Ran held the copper stick, put the bell mouth down, and shook it slowly, and the copper bell made a crisp sound, and it was heard far away in the silent night mountain range.

The copper bell is not used to control the corpse, but to order the Gu worms hidden inside the corpse's brain.

Wu Ran shook the copper bell again, and as the second bell sounded, the ten coffins erected in the grass shook slightly, and the sound of knocking and knocking came from inside the coffin.

"Come out. Wu Ran's somewhat hoarse voice sounded, and the old face was full of anticipation.
