Chapter XXXVIII
It seems that it is an absolutely wise choice for Grandpa to let himself bring the little ancestor out, he can predict what will happen here from thousands of miles away, Leng Zimo had to sigh once again at his superb Liuren technique.
And now, everything here has settled, and the murderous corpses of the Five Elements who were still murderous two hours ago have turned into decomposing corpses, but Leng Zimo still recited the "Taishang Salvation Sutra" for them, and burned a few talismans to show excess.
After the simple transcendent ritual was completed, he was about to return to Xiwen and them with his little ancestor in his arms, but the sudden flickering light in the pit made him stop. He gently lowered the little ancestor, and then carefully slid to the bottom of the pit, the red light flickered and flickered, circling around the fire corpse, and he finally found that the light flashed from the fire corpse's head.
Curiosity is curiosity, Leng Zimo is still very cautious, he pulled out the money sword in his backpack and fiddled with the head of the fire corpse, in addition to guarding against accidents that may happen at any time, he also thought about trying not to destroy other people's corpses.
Because most of the fire corpse's body was trapped in the dirt, Leng Zimo was still rummaging hard, but the little ancestor who was waiting by the pit was already impatient. He looked around first at the direction where Xiwen was lying, and then at Leng Zimo at the bottom of the pit, and finally chose to slide down the pit.
With a "whoosh", the little ancestor hit Leng Zimo's buttocks, only to see Leng Zimo let out a miserable scream, and then his whole face hit half of the skull face of the fire corpse, knocking the head of the fire corpse out of a big hole.
Leng Zimo was so painful that his eyebrows were twisted together, he covered his nose and raised his head, just wanted to beat the little ancestor fat, but his attention was fixed by a crystal clear stone in his skull.
"It's ...... Corpses?" Leng Zimo picked up the stone and said in disbelief.
He hurriedly dragged the little ancestor up to the big pit, and then searched the heads of the other four murderous corpses. Sure enough, each of the murderous corpses had such a crystal clear stone placed in their heads.
This is a fine stone that can only be condensed in the body of a zombie who has practiced Taoism for at least a hundred years, and it is an extremely precious strength amplification material for every cultivator or zombie, and every corpse in Leng Zimo's hand is the size of two thumbs, which is at least three hundred years. It seems that the Imperial Corpse Division has made a lot of money in order to refine these five monsters.
By the time Leng Zimo returned to Xiwen and Wu Yan, the two of them had fallen to the ground unconscious, with a few white maggots crawling at the corners of their mouths, their fine lines were purple, and their bodies exuded a heavy corpse gas. Leng Zimo picked up the maggots at the corners of the two people's mouths and looked at them, and his face couldn't help but become solemn.
"It's ...... Gu poison?" he muttered to himself.
Not only Gu poison, but Xiwen also had corpse poison and Gu poison left and right in his body, realizing the seriousness of the matter, he immediately crushed a corpse, half of it was sprinkled on Xiwen's legs, and half was poured into Xiwen's mouth to delay the spread of the corpse poison on his body, and then used the secret method to contact the closest Leng family disciple to come to help.
In a daze, Xiwen only felt a cold and piercing thing, which penetrated into his body along the veins of his calves, and he wanted to open his eyes to see clearly, but his eyelids did not obey, and he soon fell into darkness again. But this time, instead of fainting, his consciousness went to a place of nothingness.
There was nothing to see, nothing to hear, but there was a faint aura. Xiwen seems to feel a little familiar with this breath, since the last time he went to the Overseas Chinese Business Building with Leng Zimo to explore, Leng Zimo has always avoided talking about what happened in the more than half an hour when he finally lost consciousness, all he can know is that he said "that form" when he confided his heart to Leng Zimo on the top floor of the school.
His practical ass knows what happened during that time, he must have gone away again, after his homeland fell, he and Leo also had a few runaways in the process of escaping, but he had no memory of what happened after each runaway, and Leo would not mention these things at all like Leng Zimo.
He wandered through this nothingness, and felt more and more familiar to this place, but he couldn't remember a single memory of this place. He closed his eyes and shook his head a few times, trying to clear himself up, but when he opened his eyes, he was in front of a blank frame, which had crossed over?
Xiwen looked at it for a while, and the painting on the left was a portrait with only a single bony wing, holding a black knight's sword in his hand, and the disdain on his face could be radiated through the portrait. Another painting depicts a zombie with teeth and claws, a fierce face, but very majestic. Why do they say they are weird, because the figures in these two paintings look exactly like Xiwen.
He was so frightened that he shuddered, and the foreboding made him slowly turn to the frame on his back, and Xiwen's heart was beating very hard, it was a fear of the unknown. "Poof" turned around. Seeing that the picture frame was still blank, he breathed a sigh of relief, but in the next second, his whole body was sucked in by the frame.
The tingling pain all over his body made Xiwen open his eyes suddenly, and the first thing that appeared in his eyes was Leng Zimo, who had a surprised face, and he shouted "Wake up, wake up, wake up!" and then hurried away. Xiwen was a little dazed, he just wanted to stop Leng Zimo, but found that all he had in his throat was the sound of "roar, roar, roar", and what made him feel even more strange was that he couldn't move his hands and feet.
"Don't struggle, you're still soaking in the glutinous rice jar, don't ask why, let's see how you look first. ”
At this time, Wu Yan, who was also in the room, came over with a mirror. His situation was not as serious as Xiwen's, and when he returned to Leng Zimo's house, he let Leng Zimo's mother use a secret method to suppress the continued spread of Gu poison and wake up.
The moment Xiwen saw the mirror, his heart suddenly rushed over thousands of grass and mud horses. With sunken eyes and a blue face, this was a zombie! But the longer he looked at it, the more it made him feel like one of the paintings he had seen in a hallucination.
"You don't have to worry, Leng Zimo's mother said that you were scraped to the bones by the murderous corpse, and coupled with the erosion of the corpse Gu, the corpse poison spread faster than usual. You don't know what your corpse looked like at the beginning, but the Leng family had to hurt several disciples to subdue you without harming you. ”
"Whoa...... (Are those disciples all right??) Then why did you soak me in glutinous rice. Shevin groaned worriedly.
Wu Yan didn't understand what Xiwen was talking about at all, but he still said to himself:
"Your appearance now is much better than then, and you have to owe more glutinous rice to the Leng Zimo family, you have already changed eleven buckets of glutinous rice, and they said that it will be enough to change three more barrels. ”
Although Xiwen wanted to know why he was soaked in glutinous rice, he thought that he couldn't speak, so he forgot it. However, he could feel his body changing, and he could see the glutinous rice centered on him turning black outward.
"Oops! the handsome little guy has finally woken up!" Leng Zimo's mother, who came in with Leng Zimo, said happily.
As soon as she came to Xiwen, she grabbed a handful of black glutinous rice and observed it for a while, and then said:
"Well, the corpse poison is pulled out quite quickly, don't soak the glutinous rice, let's move on to the next step, let's move in!"
She shouted towards the door, and four disciples came in with a large wooden barrel with a flat pole, and the bucket contained a slowly black liquid.
"This is Qianfang Wuji soup, come, carry your good classmates in!" Leng Zimo's mother said dryly.
Leng Zimo and Wu Yan obediently pulled Xiwen out of the glutinous rice pile, but this time Xiwen's roar almost lifted the roof.
"Whew!!" (Why am I undressed!!)
The glutinous rice has been changed more than a dozen times, and the three people present are already surprised. After throwing the person into the Qianfang Wuji soup with a "bang", Leng Zimo's mother said again:
"This prescription has a miraculous effect on corpse poison, I increased the dose of the medicine this time, and now I can wait for the black soup to become completely clear. ”
As soon as he soaked in the barrel, the strong smell of Chinese medicine immediately poured into Xiwen's nose, and despite the white smoke billowing from the soup, he didn't feel hot at all. He felt that the pores of his whole body had been dilated to the extreme, and all the ingredients in the medicine had been quickly absorbed into his body.
The hour hand walked round and round, and the medicinal soup in the bucket was getting lighter and lighter little by little, and the dense water vapor made people drowsy. I don't know how long it took to feel the wound on my calf become extremely itchy, and Xiwen came to his senses. The jet-black soup was already off-white, and Xiwen's skin and appearance had returned to their original appearance, and he had a feeling that his muscles and bones had been reborn.
According to the passage of time, it should be in the early hours of the morning, but Leng Zimo and Wu Yan are still waiting for them here, which makes Xiwen feel very warm and touched.
"Zimo, Wu Yan, if you are sleepy, go to sleep quickly. Xiwen said softly.
Hearing Xiwen's voice, the two people sitting on the chair "catching fish" instantly woke up.
Leng Zimo said, "What's wrong?
Wu Yan said, "Are you awake?"
The nerves tensed for as long as the two of them guarded Xiwen, and they began to relax when they saw that Xiwen's appearance had basically returned to normal.
"Well, I feel like I've slept all my life, and now I'm going to sleep for you. Xiwen said as he stretched out in the water.
"That's not going to work, my mom said I'll tell her as soon as the soup in your bucket clears. ”
Leng Zimo approached Xiwen as he spoke, he looked at the light white medicinal soup in the bucket, and then said, "It seems that it's almost over, I'll go and go back." ”
"It's been enough today...... Wu Yan said suddenly.
Hearing Wu Yan's words, Xiwen smiled slightly, and then said, "Hmm...... It's enough to choke, but it's okay if you and Zimo are fine. ”
"Alas~ It's a pity that your partner's clue is broken again, and I didn't help much. Wu Yan looked guilty.
"You've helped me enough, and if you hadn't insisted on going with me, it's hard to say if I would have been able to come back today. ”
Xiwen's face was sincere, this was his sincere words, with his current situation, he didn't even know if he could handle a Five Elements murderous corpse, let alone go to the Bright Moon Pavilion where the cult gathered.
