Chapter 114: The Yellow River Corpse King
"Long Sanniang salvaged those vertical corpses under the water, didn't there have been any accidents?" I looked at Aunt Ji curiously.
Aunt Ji nodded: "Yes, but she has successfully saved the day every time, and that time she also went to continue to collect corpses, but she met the thousand-year-old corpse king in the eyes of the Yellow River."
On that day, the sky was dark and oppressive, as if a storm was coming. Long Sanniang took the corpse rope used to fish for corpses and the hook used by the Yin River spirit officials to fish for corpses and drove the boat out, but she didn't expect that day to be the day of the three breaks. ”
I hurriedly said, "What? Three breaking days? On that kind of day, Long Sanniang dared to go out to retrieve the corpse?"
"What are the three breaking days?" Jiang Yimeng looked at me curiously.
"The Three Breaking Days are the heaviest days of the yin and evil qi of every month, and everything is inappropriate, even our Maoshan Taoist priests dare not easily get up to the altar. Because that day was the day when the gate of the underworld was opened, countless evil spirits would take the opportunity to run to the world, so the Three Breaking Day was also the most taboo day for people in the Dao Gate. Old man Xiao said to Jiang Yimeng seriously
Jiang Yimeng shook his head in confusion: "Didn't the ghost gate open on July 14?" ”
"July 14 is the door of the ghost is wide open, but the third day of the day is the door of the underworld is wide open! The underworld is so big, there are countless monsters and demons in it, and even Da Luo Jinxian doesn't dare to go to the underworld. And the ghost gate is only a small part of the underworld, and it is basically full of evil spirits and evil ghosts. Now you should know the dangers of the triple break! After speaking, Old Man Xiao tilted his head and looked at Jiang Yimeng.
"Oh! I see! Aunt Ji, go on! Jiang Yimeng nodded as if he didn't understand, and then motioned for Aunt Ji to continue.
Aunt Ji nodded, took a sip of tea and continued: "That day, Long Sanniang drove a small boat to the edge of an underwater cliff next to the river, and there were many vertical corpses precipitated under the cliff in the water, and other corpse diggers did not dare to come over at all. Long Sanniang was not afraid at all. The people who came back from fishing dissuaded: "Girl, it's going to rain heavily, let's go back quickly!" The vertical corpse you salvaged was originally full of yin energy, and there was a corpse king in this water. Let's go back! ”
Long Sanniang lay on the side of the boat, carefully observing the turbid river with her permeable pupil, ignoring the fishermen who were dissuaded by her.
"Let's go! I'm afraid this girl is crazy, let's go by ourselves! Alas! When the fishermen saw that Long Sanniang ignored them, they all sailed away in disappointment.
Long Sanniang observed underwater for a long time, and finally found that something was wrong. Usually the salvaged corpses are standing quietly at the bottom of the river, but today these corpses are so different from usual.
The corpses seemed to be half-alive, walking slowly through the mud at the bottom of the river, leaving rows of footprints behind them.
Maybe it's because of my own eyes, or maybe it's because of the current, these vertical corpses show signs of activity.
Long Sanniang smiled self-deprecatingly, then wiped her eyes and looked at the bottom again.
At this look, Long Sanniang was completely stunned, and a group of vertical corpses under the water raised their heads one after another, showing an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
"Yes, this is going to be a corpse. So so many corpses here are going to be corpses? Long Sanniang's cold sweat stayed down her face,
The turbid river water slowly turned black, and Long Sanniang saw a looming black gas in the water, which was constantly circling around those vertical corpses.
Under the stimulation of the black gas, the vertical corpses became lively one by one, and they threw off their broken arms and walked around at the bottom of the river.
The corpses at the bottom of the water slowly surfaced and stretched out their hands to grab Long Sanniang's boat.
Long Sanniang cleverly avoided the claws of the vertical corpse, and prepared to go ashore first before making plans.
There was a violent impact sound from the bottom of the boat, and Long Sanniang's boat was almost knocked over in the river, but fortunately, Long Sanniang's skills in supporting the boat were excellent and the boat was stabilized in time.
"Knock" is another heavy blow, this time the impact force is much greater than before, Long Sanniang secretly screamed that it is not good, and then pulled out the yin and yang water splitting blade on his waist and lay on the side of the boat, ready to find out what exactly hit the bottom of the boat.
A tall figure appeared in the murky river water at the bottom of the boat, Long Sanniang looked at it and found that the figure was a swollen and bloated corpse blistered, the corpse was wearing a costume of unknown age, and its white hair was combed into a bun of unknown dynasties. It seems that this corpse should be an ancient corpse.
"There are no tombs here, so there will be ancient corpses? Could it be that this is the Yellow River Corpse King that people have passed on by mouth? Long Sanniang carefully looked at the ancient corpse.
There was a rumbling thunder in the black oppressive sky, and Long Sanniang found that the vertical corpses that had originally surfaced around the ancient corpse once again dived to the bottom of the river, and knelt down in front of the ancient corpse.
Long Sanniang didn't dare to be sloppy, so she could only hold the Yin and Yang Water Splitting Blade and look at the ancient corpse vigilantly.
Suddenly, the ancient corpse's arm moved, and Long Sanniang hurriedly inserted the Yin and Yang Water Splitting Blade back into her waist, directly picked up the corpse rope next to her and tied it in a knot, and then put it on the ancient corpse's body.
As soon as the ancient corpse was lassoed, Long Sanniang hung the other end of the corpse rope on the iron hook at the stern of the boat, and quickly rowed the boat to the shore.
A huge force dragged Long Sanniang's boat to the death, and the pitch-black corpse rope was stretched straight by the two forces.
After holding on like this for a while, the stiff rope suddenly loosened a lot, and the power under the water suddenly disappeared.
Long Sanniang pulled up the section of the corpse rope soaked in the water to take a look, only to see that the pitch-black corpse rope seemed to have been burned by something, and the fracture was uneven.
Long Sanniang walked forward while holding the boat, and turned her head to look at the water behind her, only to see that the ancient corpse had come to life and was swimming over with Long Sanniang's boat.
At this time, the ancient corpse was no longer in the same state as before, but its eyes had been opened, and the fangs in its mouth were also exposed. What's even more terrifying is that it has long black nails on its fingers, and its ten fingers are like hooks. Its open eyes also emitted a strange red glow.
"It shouldn't be an ordinary corpse, it seems that it has cultivated its spiritual sense, and its Taoism is not shallow, it seems that it must be the thousand-year-old corpse king." Thinking of this, Long Sanniang hurriedly grabbed a handful of copper sand from her backpack and sprinkled it into the water, these soybean-sized copper sand particles were soaked in children's urine mixed with black dog blood, and refined with the secret method of the Yin River Spirit Officer. It is a great weapon to restrain underwater corpses or monsters.
After the handful of copper sand was sprinkled into the river, the ancient corpse's movements were obviously much slower, and small holes appeared in the places where the ancient corpse was sprinkled with copper sand, and dark green liquid flowed out of those small holes, and a strong and pungent fishy smell spread across the river.
Long Sanniang covered her nose tightly with one hand, and propped up the boat with the other hand to speed up and row to the shore.
Long Sanniang knew that the dark green liquid flowing from the ancient corpse was its blood, looking at the color, the corpse poison in the blood was extraordinary, if it was accidentally stuck to a little, I was afraid that I would also be buried at the bottom of the river, and I would also become one of the thousands of corpses under the water.
The ancient corpse had been in the eye of the Yellow River for a thousand years, and had never been attacked like this, so it surfaced with a big mouth and let out a burst of screams like night cats, and the corpses that had been quietly kneeling in the mud at the bottom of the river swam towards Long Sanniang's boat.
After only a while, Long Sanniang's boat was already densely packed with corpses, and the ancient corpse stood on the water and looked at Long Sanniang viciously, and a vicious battle was about to break out.
