Chapter 81: Sending the corpse home

Half an hour later, the Deadwood Daoist finally finished sewing the corpse's head, but now he is facing another problem, that is, how to get the corpse out. The Deadwood Daoist looked at the corpse, and then at us, my heart tightened, and I hurriedly said: "Don't look at us, we just fought with the corpse leader, and we are exhausted, aren't you the corpse driving Dao leader?" You...... Well! ”

As I spoke, I stretched out my hand and lifted it, motioning for the Deadwood Daoist to get up and walk out with us.

Deadwood Daoren's face suddenly turned ugly: "But this place can't use charms, corpse talismans can't evoke corpses, or else, let's make a stretcher and carry my client out, how about it?" ”

Looking at the smiling face of the dead wood Taoist, I waved my hand angrily and said, "Don't think about it, how can my master and I have any strength to help you carry the corpse, and besides, your corpse is so valuable?" It's really good to bother you so much and still carry it! ”

Master glared at me and said, "Ergou! How can you talk to Deadwood Daoist like that?! Deadwood Daoist is right, spells don't work here, and haven't you forgotten what we're here for? We are here to help the Deadwood Daoist get the corpse back, since the spell doesn't work now, then let's make a simple stretcher, carry the corpse out of the village first, and then ask the Deadwood Daoist to use the corpse talisman to evoke the corpse, what's so difficult about this, you're just too lazy! ”

I didn't expect the master to be so partial to the Deadwood Daoist, and said that I was lazy, I think it was clear that the Deadwood Daoist was lazy, and he could obviously go out with the corpse on his back. Muttering and complaining, I had to follow Master's instructions, find some dry branches, tie them into a simple stretcher, and then let the deadwood Taoist get the body onto the stretcher.

Perhaps because of the big locust tree, most of the dwarf trees around here have died and can't grow at all, so it's still very convenient to find firewood. When the Deadwood Daoist carefully put the body on the stretcher, I had to carry my head while the Deadwood Daoist was behind. I won't let Master work harder anymore, because Master has already been injured in the previous battle with the corpse leader, and now it is very good to be able to support it.

Master led the way, and the deadwood Taoist and I followed behind with the corpse, out of the dilapidated house, and by the light of the torches, we saw again the big locust tree in the middle of the road, and it seemed that we had to go around it.

In the meantime, I can still hear the slightest trivial sound, but I don't care about those ghost words at all, this ghost village is like an alternative world that accommodates hundreds of rivers, and it actually gathers so many mountain spirits and ghosts to cultivate in it. Master's steps were very light, and he didn't seem to want to cause any other trouble, but it was strange to say that he didn't encounter any trouble all the way out of the village.

As soon as I walked out of the village, I looked around in surprise, and it was pitch black, and the moon that should have been there seemed to have been long been covered by dark clouds.

I didn't expect that after a few hours of delay, the sky had changed outside. I didn't know if it would rain, so I put down the stretcher with the Deadwood Daoist, I stood up and said, "Master, I didn't expect to come out and still can't see my fingers, the moon and stars are hiding in the dark clouds, what if it rains?" How are we in a hurry? ”

The master looked up and said in surprise, "Yes! With such gloomy weather, I'm afraid we won't be able to travel tonight, so let's go back to Yizhuang later, and wait until dawn tomorrow to see the situation. ”

"Wait!" Master and I were studying how to hurry, but the Deadwood Daoist on the side suddenly stretched out his hand and shouted, "Brother Yang Dao, it's not good!" ”

Master hurriedly walked over to the Deadwood Daoist, glanced down at the corpse, and asked, "Brother Deadwood Daoist, what's the matter?" ”

The Deadwood Daoist pointed to the corpse and said helplessly: "The corpse talisman doesn't work...... Dare is that the corpse's head is broken, and the yin qi cannot be condensed and penetrated, so my corpse talisman cannot make the corpse rise, but if the corpse can't get up, I can't send it back to my hometown alone. ”

"How so?" The master frowned, looked down, and then shook his head and said, "Could it be because the body was damaged?" ”

"Who's to say it isn't!" The dead wood Taoist said, glanced at me angrily, and said hurriedly: "The head is sewn up, and if you want the corpse to get up, you must have the qi of yin into the body, up and down, and then use the corpse talisman to get the corpse up, and then paste the corpse talisman in front of the head to prevent the yin qi from leaking out and the yang qi from entering, but now the corpse can't move, but what should I do?" Alas...... Ergou, shouldn't you pay a little more for the matter of wiping my client's neck? ”

I was stunned and anxious: "Deadwood Daoist, how do you speak?" When I cut its neck, it wasn't an ordinary corpse now, but it was a corpse at that time, and it was the duty of a doer to kill the corpse, so why should I make up for it? ”

The master smiled slightly and said, "Does Brother Deadwood Dao want our master and apprentice to help you carry the corpse back to its hometown?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" When the Dead Wood Daoist heard this, he immediately nodded like pounding garlic, and said with a smile: "Brother Yang Dao is merciful, Ergou, after all, you are young, you should learn more from your master, don't just care about cultivating the Dao Fa, do you know it?" ”

I pursed my lips and said, "My master just asked, and didn't say to help you deliver customers, what are you angry about......"

Master glared at me again and said, "Ergou! How do you talk to the Deadwood Michigan? No big, no small! Deadwood Daoist, since you have difficulties, we are both disciples of the Daomen, and we should help each other, so let's do it, my apprentice and I will delay here for one more day to help you deliver the customer to your home, so it's okay, right? Hehe! ”

Hearing this, the Deadwood Daoist nodded with a smile: "That's too good, hehe, when the time comes, there will be benefits, and you must not forget Brother Yang Dao...... And two dogs you, hehe! Ergou, don't be idle, lift it, you won't let your master carry it, right? Hey! ”

I...... I really wanted to go up and kick the Deadwood Daoist, but I didn't dare to face the Master, so I had to bend down and grab the stretcher in a reluctant voice, at this time, the Master couldn't help asking, "But I don't know how far the Deadwood Daoist has to go this time?" We can help, but if we delay it too long, I'm afraid it will ...... If it's a day or two away, it must still be possible. ”

The dead wood Taoist hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Not far away, this is almost to the place when I came to the Yizhuang, there is more than ten miles away from the Yizhuang at most, just a little north of the Nanhua Mountain Mountains, hehe, I and the second dog are chatting like this, and it will be easy to arrive in three or five hours, maybe you can arrive before dawn!" ”

"More than ten miles is not too far?" I looked at the dead wood Taoist in surprise, and said lightly for three or five hours, even if it was enough to walk more than ten miles empty-handed, not to mention that the two of them were still carrying a corpse, I thought about it, and couldn't help but say: "Otherwise, let's go back to Yizhuang first, and then send the corpse after dawn tomorrow." ”

"How can that work?" The Deadwood Daoist immediately retorted: "In broad daylight, a few people are running around carrying a corpse on a stretcher, what does it look like?" Besides, the neck of this corpse has been wiped off by you, and there is no charm to seal the yin qi, presumably soon the corpse will rot and stink, if you send it tomorrow at dawn, maybe there will be some moths, we still go directly to the road to send the corpse now, try to arrive before dawn tomorrow, once the task is completed, its family will be able to bury it in time, right? ”

Master nodded: "What Brother Deadwood Dao said makes sense, the so-called dead person is big, it should be let into the ground as soon as possible, it is not advisable to stay outside for too long, plus the corpse's split neck is easy to rot, we must send it back as soon as possible, well, let's prepare and leave immediately!" ”

With that, Master made another torch that could withstand burning, and then without further delay, we carried the corpse on the road.

It's just that the weather is gloomy, there is no light, and the torches are also blown from side to side by the cold air, the road is not clear, and it is impossible to go fast. Speaking of which, if you take a straight road, it may not take so long at all, but in front of Nanhua Mountain, we have to go around, so the distance is naturally more than ten miles.

Master is really, I don't know how to excuse myself, every time I am in charge of things, he has to take care of what we shouldn't do, if I were I, I wouldn't be a bad person, I was a good person, and I was complained by the dead wood Taoist for a long time, complaining that I had damaged his customers, I was really aggrieved to the extreme.

The mountain road is good to walk for a while, and there are many messy trees as roadblocks, we stop and go, probably after more than an hour, only barely walked six or seven miles, the front should be around to the north of Nanhua Mountain, roughly calculated, probably have to walk for an hour or so, by that time it should be almost dawn.

Master wanted to help, but I really couldn't bear to hurt him, but the more I walked, the heavier I felt, perhaps because my strength was too much exertion. And the deadwood Taoist was in high spirits all the way, perhaps because this was his customer, and he didn't complain about being tired along the way.

After more than half an hour, we finally saw the general outline of a village on the north side of Nanhua Mountain, but the light of the torches was still very small, or maybe I saw the fire eye, and I was tired all the way, until we came to the village, and we were not sure of the place.

At the entrance of the village, I put down the stretcher with a sore body and asked the Deadwood Daoist, "Deadwood Daoist, whose family is your customer?" It's pitch black, I'm afraid it's hard to find. ”
