Chapter 142: The Ancient Zombie King
At this time, Zhao Hangyu saw the old man's face clearly, with a Chinese face, and his silver-white hair was meticulously combed. A pair of eyes are still bright, sharp and wise, and the nose has some hooked noses, which seems to have a sense of non-anger and self-authority.
I heard him say in a solemn tone: "Folks, I think everyone should know what happened, right? That legend has been fulfilled, just this morning there was an abnormality in the Descending Star Lake, the Corpse King has broken through, and Li Dajun was also killed by the Corpse King this morning!"
The old man's voice sounded very energetic, although he looked very old, but his body was still relatively tough. After the old man's words came out, people didn't make a sound, and the whole scene was very quiet, but at this time, the expressions on everyone's faces became very serious.
"Corpse King?"
Zhao Hangyu and the three of them glanced at each other, vaguely as if they understood something.
Seeing that the villagers didn't express their opinions, the old man continued: "I don't think there is any need to say more, everyone should know the seriousness of this matter, we don't know where the corpse king is at present, but everyone should be careful, once anyone finds the trace of the corpse king, they must sound the gong to notify everyone!"
When the villagers heard this, everyone couldn't help but show a look of horror on their faces, and the women hugged their children tightly.
"I think everyone knows the story passed down by our ancestors, and everyone should know how powerful the Corpse King is. Therefore, everyone should travel together during the day, and at night, don't come out!"
Then the old man paused, then looked down at the body of the young man lying on the ground, and then turned his head to a young man kneeling beside the corpse and said: "Sixth Uncle knows that you are very sad, but your brother was bitten to death by the corpse king, so you must not stay! Otherwise, it will be a big disaster for the whole town! Therefore, you must use jujube branches to incinerate today, as the second son of the Li family, you can make a statement!"
The young man looked very hesitant after listening to what the old man said, looked at the body of his brother lying on the ground, and then turned his head to look at the villagers behind him, his eyes were full of confusion and reluctance.
The villagers also looked at the helpless young man, and finally the young man nodded helplessly, and then some of the villagers scattered to look for the jujube branches, while the other villagers still stood solemnly in place.
After seeing the scene in front of them and hearing what the old man said, the three of them realized that something was wrong, and they never expected that such a big thing would happen before they left for long.
If you stay for a while longer, you can at least resist and prevent the Zombie King from going to the town to harm people. But in this world, I didn't know it earlier, and there would be no regret medicine.
When the deceased is buried in a place where the corpse is raised or some extremely yin place, the corpse is very likely to become a zombie, and the zombie can not decay after thousands of years, and after absorbing the earth's qi for a long time, it will burst out and hurt people.
Because zombies have a very strong bloodthirsty desire, they will pounce on people. In addition, because zombies are dead corpses, they are not afraid of pain at all, and they have a lot of brute force, so they are very difficult to deal with.
There is also a king among zombies, and such zombies are called zombie kings or corpse kings. This kind of zombie has lasted for at least a thousand years, has vast magical powers, is not afraid of the sun, and many magic weapons and Taoist techniques have no effect on it. Therefore, the old man said that the zombie king was resurrected, which made it clear that the matter was extremely serious.
Zhao Hangyu's mind suddenly recalled what he had seen during the day, the situation near the Descending Star Lake seemed to be very unusual, the leaves on the east side of the forest were sparse, and the leaves on the west side were luxuriant.
But the sun is abundant in the east, and according to this statement, the Falling Star Lake should be lush on the side, but the leaves are sparse.
At the same time, although there is a back mountain, but the mountain is steep, although there is a mountain and water, but it is a steep mountain and bad water. If the guess is correct, the east side of that forest must be the land of extreme shade! That is, the place where corpses are raised.
Lin Zixi suddenly asked, "What are we going to do now?"
"Let's go!"
Zhao Hangyu said neatly, turned around and walked towards the location of the Descending Star Lake, and the second daughter still didn't say much, and followed closely behind. After a while, they arrived at the lake, and they felt that the whole air was filled with a solemn smell of blood.
The three of them searched for a long time, and unexpectedly found a stone monument standing on the shore of the lake, but it was old and covered with a thick layer of dust. At the moment, the dirt and dust were peeled off, and the vermilion handwriting appeared on the stone tablet.
The stele records a past incident that took place hundreds of years ago, describing the emperor at that time who was obsessed with alchemy and pursued the art of immortality. For this reason, a large number of Taoist priests were requisitioned by the emperor to give him alchemy to satisfy the emperor's desire for immortality.
However, how can the elixir of life be so easy to practice, but there is an old way among them who has obtained an ancient recipe, which records the use of ancient corpses that have not rotted for thousands of years as the raw materials for the elixir.
In order to please the emperor, this old Taoist looked for ancient corpses everywhere, dug up an unknown number of ancient tombs, and dug out many stiff but not floating ancient corpses, one of which was the best preserved, but at the same time, it was also the most evil among all the ancient corpses.
When the old Taoist priest saw the ancient corpse, he was very excited, and decided that this ancient corpse was the longest among all the ancient corpses, absorbing the most earth qi and yin qi, so he immediately sent someone to transport the ancient corpse to the capital.
However, because the transportation was not developed at that time, it could only be transported slowly by horse-drawn carriage, so it was transported to Heilong Mountain after more than a month.
Perhaps it was providence, and on the night of the arrival of this place, there was a sudden lightning and thunder in the sky. And the carriage transporting the ancient corpse was unfortunately struck by lightning, and after the carriage was struck by lightning, the ancient corpse naturally turned into a zombie.
At that time, after the ancient corpse turned into a zombie, it caused trouble everywhere, and many people were bitten to death by the zombie, and as a result, those who were bitten to death and bitten also became the walking dead who hurt people.
But fortunately, it was not like the turbulent era of a few decades ago, fighting cows, ghosts, snakes and gods everywhere, breaking feudal superstitions, and basically every place had some more capable Taoist priests and monks. After learning that a zombie was the culprit, these Taoist priests and monks spontaneously gathered together to discuss how to deal with this zombie.
Unexpectedly, this zombie's ability turned out to be very good, although many Taoist priests and monks came, but they still failed to subdue it.
In the end, basically all the Taoist priests in a radius of thousands of miles gathered here, and after discussion, it was decided to use the Bagua Fu Ghost Array to subdue the zombie. After a fierce fight, the zombies were finally subdued, but many Taoist priests died in this battle, many of whom were advanced in Taoism.
It's just that after subduing it, I found a headache, this zombie is actually invulnerable, even if it is burned with civil and military real fire, it can't be burned. In the end, among these Taoist priests, a person with the highest cultivation recognized that this was a zombie king, and it was still an ancient zombie, which was not an ordinary way to subdue it at all.
In desperation, he could only seal this zombie in the formation where the forest was located, and send someone to guard the formation every year to ensure that the zombies would not come out again. However, due to the heavy yin qi on the zombies, the east side of the forest has turned into a place of extreme yin over time.
You must know that this kind of formation can't completely shock this ancient zombie after all, and the Taoist priest with the highest cultivation divination at that time and left a sentence. If all the fish suddenly float and sink to the bottom of the lake, and the water color turns red, the zombie king will break free from the formation.
Of course, this is certainly not the case in the original words, but the general meaning is not much different.
This incident has become a legend that has been passed down to the present day, and it has also become a secret of the locals, a secret that cannot be told to outsiders. This is also worried that someone who is greedy for money will break the seal and release the corpse king.
In an extremely secret place in Heilong Mountain, the entire forest was shrouded in a thick miasma, and the nearby flowers and trees seemed to all wither, and many birds and beasts were also in a strange state of death.
If a person walks into this place rashly, it must be a dead end, but in an extremely dangerous situation, a familiar black shadow slowly condenses and takes shape.
"What a heavy corpse!"
The Lich King frowned, and walked unhurriedly towards a deep, dark cave in front of him. As soon as he approached the entrance of the cave, a pungent and unusual smell of blood greeted him, and fresh blood stains could be seen everywhere on the ground.
When I walked to the heart of the cave, I suddenly saw a sturdy zombie covered in witch stripes closing his eyes and recuperating.
I saw that the zombie was dressed in the costume of the witch clan, with a pair of giant buffalo-like horns on its head, and the muscles and muscles all over its body were full of destructive power. Although his eyes were closed, that powerful and abnormal aura really made anyone who was close to him feel unprecedented pressure.
