In a conversation with the housekeeper Zhao Qing.

Han Dong and Dr. Swelling have a preliminary understanding of the [Tomb World].

The first thing I talked about was the concept of a "floating island", which as the name suggests, is an island floating in the air, and the principle of floating is not known for the time being.

The village, as well as the tomb where Han Dong woke up, are located on a floating island, and there are thousands of similar islands...... It's nothing more than a small, even miniature floating island.

But as for the situation outside the floating island, the housekeeper also did not know.

According to him, anyone who knows about the outside world is no longer here.

And the only way to get to the outside world is the [Dragon Boat].

Once every six months, the dragon boat comes here...... If there is a zombie in the village, after a series of tests, he will be given the opportunity to leave on a dragon boat, which is why the previous village chief wanted to break the zombie at all costs.

A ticket means that the individual can escape this remote mountain village and go to a new world.

Other than that.

Han Dong also heard a very interesting piece of information from the housekeeper.

There is no only way to dissolve the zombie, except for refining corpse oil through the steam technology brought by the dragon ship.

It can also be achieved through self-cultivation.

This kind of cultivation requires a copy of the "Corpse Collection", which is also a piece of information given by the dragon boat.

It is said that when the total number of zombie dissolvers in the village exceeds ten, the dragon boat will provide the village with a copy of the corpse book.

The villagers can nourish the corpse qi in their bodies according to the cultivation methods recorded above, and use the cultivation method to achieve stiffness.

This is also the reason why some medium and large floating islands will appear at regular intervals.

But.

"Cadaverine" is as important as "cultivation", if you achieve stiffness through cultivation in the early stage, you also need to replenish enough necromancer in the future.

As for the steam technology in the village and the reason for the corpse of the whole village, as Han Dong guessed, it was all brought by the dragon boat.

……

The next evening.

The group left through the main entrance of the village and went up the hillside.

One of the shadows would jump every two steps...... It seems to have some connection with the instincts of the body.

"The zombie film of the mother country does not deceive me! After the stiffening, the body will spontaneously move both legs at the same time, which naturally evolves into a knee-flexing jump...... Let's go with the flow. ”

Han Dong's brain is completely capable of correcting this 'defect'.

However, considering the world background and the needs of identity, it has gradually accepted this setting...... During the ascent, the walking posture is gradually abandoned, and the regular movement mode is replaced by jumping.

This trip to the mountain has two purposes.

The first is to see the edge of the empty island at the end of the grave mountain, and the second is to fight for the swollen doctor a chance to break the stiffness.

The second point is particularly important.

There is still more than a day before the arrival of the dragon boat, and you must get the ticket qualification for Dr. Swelling, otherwise you will have to wait for half a year.

The corpses that can be used to dissolve the zombies in the village are basically squeezed out by the original village chief, and the only way to collect them is through the back mountain.

The housekeeper Zhao Qing was responsible for leading the way with a paper lantern.

According to him, there is a monster in the depths of the back mountain that even the former village chief fears.

In order to eliminate his worries, the former village chief took a group of strong villagers every once in a while, equipped with mechanical equipment provided by steam technology, and went to the back mountains to defeat monsters.

Each time, only the village chief escaped, and none of the other villagers were left and died.

"Steward Zhao, is it some kind of zombie hiding in the back mountain?"

"The former village chief forbade anyone to talk about it, and even I didn't know about it...... It's just a rough idea of where the monster is hiding in the back mountain. ”

"Interesting."

The deeper you go into the back mountain, the more the lantern in the butler's hand trembles.

Although there was a question he had already asked twice, he still asked it after thinking about it: "The dragon boat will come to the village tomorrow, the young master has successfully broken the stiffness, and boarding the dragon boat is a nail in the coffin...... Is it not such a dangerous thing? ”

"Do you want to be the village chief?" Han Dong suddenly threw out a question.

"Ah...... Who wouldn't want that? Ha ha. The butler smirked.

"If we can succeed in this trip, my father and I will both achieve a stalemate and leave the village tomorrow, and you will be the village chief...... If we all die, and you're also the village chief, isn't that good? ”

"That's right...... No, it's not!

If you can be taken away by the dragon boat, the village can get a lot of materials and technical support, young master, you are the hope of the whole village. ”

Han Dong just smiled slightly, and put his heavy palm on the butler's shoulder.

"Just take us to a similar place and you'll be back in the village...... But be sure to prepare for tomorrow's [Dragon Boat Ceremony], my father and I will be back on time. ”

Strands of pressure spread from the palm of the hand into the butler's body.

This kind of strong pressure is far more than the original village chief, if the organs in the housekeeper's body can still function normally, he should have urinated by now.

“…… Good. ”

Walk past the burial area and through the mountains and forests.

Due to prolonged exposure to highly toxic air, a large amount of pus-like bark grows on the surface of the trees, and filthy liquid is constantly flowing out from the inside.

Even if Han Dong's zombie body was accidentally stained, it would immediately stir up white smoke, and the hard flesh would be corroded into small holes like rice grains.

"It won't be long before you go any further and you should see a cave...... The monster was inside. ”

"Okay, let's go."

"Good ......"

Steward Zhao's escape speed was absolutely top-notch, and he withdrew from the forest area as soon as he slipped away.

"Doctor, the perception is fully open, notify me immediately of any situation."

"Okay."

[Perception is fully open]

Dr. Swelling, who was recognized by the second primordial substance-Pop as a high-end brain class-[Migo], exhibits a peculiar form when fully open perception.

Tentacles with a 'sulcus' structure immediately emerge from the ear holes, nose and mouth, achieving the effect of radar.

Meantime.

The dorsal backbone protruding from the outside also has symmetrical tentacles growing out of the sulcus, which shows that the doctor is quite skilled in controlling the body...... Even this unfamiliar corpse can be 100% controlled.

"Lord, this way!"

Under the doctor's perception, he quickly found the cave in Steward Zhao's mouth.

"What a heavy corpse!" Wisps of gray-black smoke are visible to the naked eye spilling from the entrance of the cave.

"Doctor, don't force yourself later, the things here may be really difficult to deal with...... You are mainly responsible for providing me with spiritual assistance. ”

"Okay, just...... Is the butler's word really credible? ”

"He did lie in some places, but it's because he lied that it's more interesting here.

The former village chief avoided talking about things here, and every once in a while he would bring people to 'crusade'.

But he was the only one who survived, and he wasn't even injured, isn't it a little strange? I'm afraid it's not a 'crusade' here, it's an offering.

The former village chief was very afraid of the things here, and every once in a while he would bring a group of villagers to feed and stabilize the things in it by providing food.

And the village chief tried his best to get the ferry ticket, and even did not hesitate to suppress the villagers' "corpses", just because he wanted to leave this floating island as soon as possible...... If the feeding does not satisfy the food here, the village will be destroyed. ”
