Chapter 35: Lin Qiaoer's Experience
The Taoist priest always felt that I was pretending to be stupid, and at this time my mind was messed up, and I didn't bother to explain to him, thinking that after going back this time, I must go back to my hometown.
After half an hour of rest, everyone's spirits were much better, especially the Taoist priest, who was as excited as taking Viagra after getting the gold. I'm also much better, my fatigue has been reduced a lot, but I'm so hungry.
The situation of everyone else was similar, the food had already been eaten, and after another day of running back and forth, my stomach was empty, and the feeling of hunger made me feel as if I was about to hang. I've heard some survival experts say that people can live for one to two weeks without eating and drinking water, but that's only possible when they remain basically inactive. As tired as we are, and our spirits have been in a state of high tension, it is already the blessing of the Buddha to be able to starve for three days without dying.
We have to find something to eat, I thought to myself, and looked around, and saw that there was a wind blowing in the depths of the cave where we were staying, and it was evident that it was connected to other places.
I wondered in my heart, so I asked Lin Qiao'er how they found this? Lin Qiao'er told me that they also found this by mistake, and then briefly told her what happened to her after we were separated.
Things were similar to what I had assumed, and after rescuing Cortana, they kept running and shook off the pursuing townsfolk before they realized I hadn't followed. Lin Qiao'er naturally couldn't leave me alone, so she and Xiao Na went back again, but they didn't expect to run into those townspeople who were chasing them halfway, and both of them were caught.
It was almost dawn, and the foolish townsfolk who believed in the Dark Witch God handed them over to the sheriffs, and it just so happened that I had run away, and the mayor ordered me and my companions to be hunted down, and they were escorted by the vigilantes to Elm Gully to meet the mayor.
After the mutation, the town had long been occupied by the living dead and strange birds, but the caves of Elm Gully had become a safe place, and the existence of the gold mines had made the surviving townspeople, including the security team controlled by the mayor, use Elm Gully as a refuge.
The vigilantes accidentally alerted the living dead as they escorted them through the town, and after a vicious fight, the vigilantes left behind several corpses and fled frantically to Elm Gully, where they were overtaken by a large number of living dead when they reached the vicinity of the tower.
What happened after that was pretty much the same as I had guessed, and the vigilantes took refuge in the tower's courtyard to take refuge from the crisis, but they couldn't stop the crazy living dead. The courtyard gate was smashed open, and the vigilantes were tangled with the living dead who poured into the courtyard, not wanting to have an even more terrifying creature behind them - the corpse.
The situation after that was quite tragic, the corpses were extremely cruel, whether they were human or alive, they were all tortured and killed by him. The frightened security team took advantage of the chaos to run frantically, and really ran out of some of them, as a sacrifice to the black witch, and those people did not forget to take them with them when they fled.
Lin Qiao'er felt strange at the time, because the ferocious monster didn't chase them, and after being rescued by the Taoist priest, they realized that it was the Taoist priest who attracted the attention of the corpse, which allowed them to escape into the elm ditch.
However, the corpses eventually chased them into the cave, and they didn't know how they chased them.
The Taoist priest spoke at this time: "What do you know, the corpse is psychic, and he already has wisdom, one of the people you escaped from has already been controlled by his mind, and he ran all the way to cut his veins and let him bleed, and the corpse was found along the bloodstains, but it was also thanks to the bloodstains, otherwise the Taoist master would not be able to find Qiao'er in so many caves no matter how powerful he was." ”
Hearing him say this, Lin Qiao'er suddenly realized, and I hurriedly asked him: "Then how did you escape from the corpse?" ”
"Escape, does Dao Ye still need to escape? Damn, if it weren't for the loss of all the poor Dao magic weapons, otherwise there would be a hundred more of them, and Lao Tzu wouldn't have paid attention to them! ”
I glanced at him with disdain, and said You just blow it, the one just now almost sent you to see the Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, a hundred, not to mention that you are still an apprentice now, I'm afraid that even if your master comes, it will not be enough for people to tear it up.
The Taoist priest was already bragging, but when he saw that I didn't give him face, his face suddenly became a little unsightly, and he muttered that he didn't know as much as me, a turtle, and continued to fiddle with his gold nuggets. In the end, the Taoist priest still didn't say how he avoided the corpse and how he got to the cave, Lin Qiao'er saw that he didn't want to say more, so he continued to talk about what happened later.
When the corpse chased to the cave, the mayor and the Shangli patriarch were both in the cave, and after seeing them, the mayor laughed so much that his eyebrows were about to collapse into his eyes, saying that the sacrifice had fallen, and then discussed with the Shangli patriarch about the next human sacrifice. It was at this moment that the corpses burrowed into the cave and the slaughter began.
In the chaos, the mayor of the town and the patriarch of Shangli escaped, and the Taoist priest appeared at the most chaotic time and saved them. The three of them escaped into one of the two mines, and found a huge circular karst cave at the end of the mine, the walls of the cave were densely packed with large and small cave groups, they chose a hole and drilled into it, encountered many branches along the way, and finally arrived at the current cave, and just found the Shangli people gathered below.
They wanted to see what these people were doing here, but they didn't expect that after waiting for less than half an hour, Yang Mengqing and I, who were going upstream, were caught one after another, and there was the scene just now.
After Lin Qiaoer finished talking about her experience, she asked me what happened to me, and looked at Yang Mengqing with curiosity, which obviously meant to ask why I was with her.
I sighed and recounted how I fell and lost consciousness, how I was almost skinned alive as a sacrifice, and how I met Yang Mengqing, and a series of experiences that now I feel chills all over my body.
Lin Qiao'er and Xiao Na listened stunned, every time I talked about life and death, both of them seemed to have experienced what happened to me, sometimes nervously clenched their fists, sometimes their eyes widened in disbelief, and when they heard that I was lucky to get back their lives, they also breathed a sigh of relief, and when I finished speaking, I found that the two girls looked at me with more admiration in their eyes.
They weren't the only ones who were surprised, the Taoist priest didn't expect that I had experienced so many moments of life and death after he left, and it was rare that he didn't laugh at me, patted me on the shoulder and said: "Little reporter, if you don't die, there will be a blessing in the future, but I said that why is this corpse so powerful, and the feelings are for you to refine, alas, if it weren't for the Taoist Master who still has some skills, I'm afraid that the whole town will be killed by the two of you!" ”
The Taoist priest comforted me one second, but what he said the next second made the second monk puzzled, and he hurriedly asked him why he said that.
He sighed and raised his palm to show me, this is the palm he just beat the crack in the chest of the corpse, just now I was amazed by the power of his palm, and I was going to ask him for advice afterwards, but now that he asked me to see, I was suddenly a little foggy. I took one look and was shocked to see that his palms were covered with large and small bloody wounds, and it seemed that although he had broken the shell of the corpse, he himself had also been injured.
I hurriedly asked Lin Qiao'er to help the Taoist priest deal with his wounds, but I saw him shake his head, said no, and then stared at me with a suspicious look: "Can't you really see it?" I was confused by his question, and asked him what he saw?
The Taoist priest shook his head, raised his other hand and shook it in front of my eyes, pointed to the sword, and quickly drew a pattern in front of my eyes. I knew he was drawing a talisman, and I was about to ask him what he was doing, when I heard him say, "Look at it again!" ”
As he spoke, he spread out his palm for me to look at again, I looked at it again in confusion, and my heart was suddenly shocked, only to see that the small blood on his palm was densely wrapped with countless black gas, which seemed to be drilling into the flesh and blood, and in the blood mouth, there were faint golden lights constantly resisting the invasion of black gas.
"How so?" Looking at those black gases, a strong uneasiness suddenly rose in my heart.
The Taoist priest sighed and said that the generation of the corpse was originally related to the drought, what is the drought? The god of drought is full of scorching corpse gas, and when the drought comes out, there will be calamity. Although the corpse is related to the drought, it is only a corpse that has produced a spiritual spirit, and it is not difficult to deal with it, but the corpse below was smelted by a high temperature of 1,000 degrees, not only did it not die, but absorbed a large amount of temperature, and it has become another terrifying corpse - the corpse.
