Chapter 1089: Mountain People
When I saw this skeleton, I was a little depressed.
Ninety-eight dried corpses that had been exchanged for blood, and such a pair of wreckage left behind after the death of the long-haired monster, there is no need to guess, this must be the ninety-eight yin corpses in the immortal tomb plus one Luo Chengji.
At the beginning, the people of Buzhou Mountain were looking for ninety-eight yin corpses, wasn't it just to get the blood of the great yin on the corpses. Fortunately now, no one took all the blood of the Great Yin in advance, and this time we pounced on it again.
The reason why Practical sent someone to obstruct us was only because he didn't know yet, Wu Lin and I had already deduced that he had already obtained the blood of the Great Yin, and now he only needed to obtain the power of the night demon to obtain eternal life.
If you think in the good direction, Practical still thinks that we are all in the dark, and no one knows what his real intentions are.
But no matter how I think about it, I still can't accept the reality in front of me - the blood of the Great Yin has really been taken away by Utility!
A strong breath of fire pressed on the top of my head, and I felt a headache, so I could only sit down on the ground, rubbing my temples repeatedly with my hands.
Lao Zuo came to me and sat down: "What's wrong, headache?" ”
I sighed helplessly: "The blood pressure is a little high, it's fine." ”
Lao Zuo smiled at me: "In the face of an opponent like Practical, we all have to stabilize our mood, don't be like Zhou Gongjin in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, you were angry with Zhuge Liang." ”
"I'm not that vulnerable. Besides, Zhou Gongjin in history was not angry to death. ”
Having said that, I know that Lao Zuo's words are right, in the face of an opponent like Shiji, you must not be rash, and you must always remain calm enough.
I forced myself to calm down, but my head still ached.
I think my high blood pressure should be caused by abnormal body structure, but fortunately, the blood vessels are relatively strong, so it should not be so easy to have problems. I went to check it again two days ago, and the cholesterol is still a little high, I think it should be caused by my body structure abnormality, and it definitely has nothing to do with my usual love of hard-boiled eggs.
At this time, Lao Zuo said on the side: "After the blood in Fei Zhuang's body was replaced, he completely lost his ability to move, I think, when they came out of the grave some time ago, they should not have changed their blood." ”
My heart shook: "You mean ......"
Lao Zuo nodded: "The blood of the Great Yin on the bodies of these evil corpses was taken away that night. Because the yin qi in the blood completely suppressed the corpse qi, these evil corpses had a flying stiff body, but they did not have the ability of ordinary flying zombies, but even so, it was not easy to control ninety-eight such evil corpses at one time. ”
"Then in your opinion, with practical cultivation, can you restrain so many evil corpses?"
Lao Zuo shook his head: "He can't, but there is a person next to him who can do it." ”
"Who?"
"Zhang Dayou...... Zhang Dayou after sucking the blood of the ancestral witch. ”
Speaking of this, Lao Zuo turned his gaze to Wu Xiangsong: "Brother Ang, the reason why you withdrew from the old village that night is probably not only because you can't see through the doorway here, right?" ”
Wu Xiangsong nodded helplessly: "At that time, many people sensed that there was a strong mental force walking back and forth on the periphery of the cornfield, and the other party's cultivation was too high, plus we came in a hurry, he was waiting for the rabbit, once there was a head-to-head confrontation, it would be difficult for our gang to retreat." ”
It's not that it's hard to get out, it's that it's hard to leave Shijia Old Village alive.
Although Wu Xiangsong and their actions were suspected of avoiding war, they had to admit that they were right to choose to retreat, they were not familiar with the situation here, there were masters around the cornfield, and there were very likely hidden piles left in the village.
At that time, they had already entered the enemy's encirclement, and the gap in strength between the two sides was too large, once they fought, Wu Xiangsong and his gang could easily be completely annihilated.
Over the years, the industry and the organization have suffered heavy losses in the entanglement with the Funeral Sect, and they can no longer withstand more casualties, not to mention that there are still many people in Wu Xiangsong's team who are the backbone of the organization.
We can't afford to lose, we really can't afford to lose.
Wu Xiangsong continued: "Later, Lao Jin and I also sneaked back to investigate the situation, but the other party's whereabouts were very hidden, and we came back several times, but we didn't find any trace of the other party. ”
Lao Zuo asked, "Why didn't you contact me at that time?" ”
But as soon as he asked this sentence, Lao Zuo waved his hand again, signaling that Wu Xiangsong didn't need to answer.
When a few of us lived in the Hainan villa, we also sent a message to other people, asking them not to contact us if they didn't have 100,000 urgent things, remember Zhuang Youxue also asked Lao Zuo, what kind of thing, what is 100,000 urgent, Lao Zuo replied: "As long as the sky does not fall, it is not 100,000 urgent." ”。
With today's result, Lao Zuo and I really can't escape the blame.
I cut off contact with everyone, just to make a decadent appearance that ignores everything and is insensitive, so as to confuse Practical and make him dare not act rashly, because at that time I needed to buy time for Wu Lin, and I was determined to wait for him to join the action before dealing with Practical Use.
But we never expected that this decision to cut off contact with everyone would leave such serious sequelae.
If Wu Xiangsong and the others contacted me or Lao Zuo as soon as possible, maybe they wouldn't be able to take away the blood of the Great Yin so easily.
I finally understand now why he let Zhang Dayou risk falling into the Burial Dragon Valley, he was to improve Zhang Dayou's cultivation, so that he could use his hand to deal with the ninety-eight Yin corpses buried in Shijia Old Village!
Blame me, if I had doubted practicality earlier, and thought earlier that the ninety-eight Yin corpses and Luo Chengji's corpses had been transferred to Shijia Old Village by him, there would not be so much trouble later!
But I also know that in this world, there is never an if.
Lao Zuo probably saw my distress again, so he patted me on the shoulder and comforted: "Don't be so depressed, speaking of which, you still have a fate with the corpses here, especially Luo Chengji, if it weren't for him, your ghost eyes would not have formed." ”
I smiled helplessly: "Okay, don't comfort me, my inner self-construction is okay, it's not so easy to collapse." ”
The words were said to Lao Zuo, but when I spoke, my eyes kept staring at Luo Chengji's coffin.
Practical must not have imagined that when I went to the Immortal Tomb, the ghost eyes were fully formed, right?
The dream I experienced at the bottom of the immortal tomb is still a knot in my heart even now, if the blood of Luo Chengji and Da Yin that I saw in my dream are fake, then what about the soul sealing talisman?
Even Lao Zuo himself said that the lamplighter who appeared in my dream was very similar to his master Chai Zongyuan, and the talisman that the other party gave me was precisely the soul sealing talisman unique to the Shouzheng lineage.
Before entering the Immortal Tomb, I had only heard of Chai Zongyuan's name, but I had never seen him, and I had heard of the Soul Sealing Talisman, but I had never seen this special talisman.
But everything in the dream corresponds perfectly to reality?
Could it be that at that time, I entered a parallel world, where Chai Zongyuan was still or, Luo Chengji and the ninety-eight Yin corpses, and they were not transferred to Shijia Old Village?
No matter how much I guessed, I couldn't get a definitive answer.
Lao Zuo pressed my shoulder for a moment, and then stood up.
Wu Xiangsong came over and pulled me, and as I got up, I asked him, "What was the telekinesis like that day near the cornfield?" ”
He thought about it seriously and said, "It's very manic, and it's very gloomy, like a human mind, but it doesn't look like a human mind." ”
I was puzzled: "What do you mean by that?" ”
Wu Xiangsong explained: "That's it...... Mental power flows in the same way as ours, but it's too manic, animalistic. Let's put it this way, it is as if a monk with a high level of cultivation has become a beast, and there is a wildness in his body that can never belong to a human being. ”
can't be wrong, the person who appeared near the cornfield that day was Zhang Dayou.
I nodded and gave Wu Xiangsong a smile: "Retreat is the right choice, if I were you, I would also choose to retreat." ”
Wu Xiangsong looked a little embarrassed: "It wasn't me who wanted to retreat that day, it was Kankan Dao." ”
"He's here too?"
"He's the one who leads the team."
"Where did he go?"
"It seems that he is back to Luofu Mountain, I heard him say that he has some urgent matters to go back to deal with, and when he is done, he will come back to me and Lao Jin, but so many days have passed, and I haven't seen his shadow until now."
Hearing Wu Xiangsong say this, I remembered Lao Zuo's previous words again.
The ninety-nine dragon coffins here were all booked by Luofu Mountain a few years ago.
No, I think it's necessary for me to go to Luofu Mountain to investigate.
At this time, Lao Zuo had already walked in the direction of the village, and it happened that I also had some questions to ask the villagers here, so I also quickened my pace and followed.
As soon as I got in touch with the villagers, I learned that although the people in the village are indeed the same as practical, they are also the descendants of the Shi family, but the inheritance of the old Shi family was broken ten years ago, and the ancestors of these people have lost the right to inherit the family school because they have violated the family rules, and ten years ago, except for the practical, all the Shi family members who have been passed away from the family education.
As early as a year ago, these villagers were originally working outside to support themselves, they knew the old Shi family, and they also knew that they were the Shi family, but they had long since cut off contact with their families, and the various disputes in the industry had nothing to do with them. But just a year ago, a group of unidentified people took them all back to the village, gave them food and drink, but did not allow them to communicate with the outside world, and they lived here with the task of planting corn in the cemetery as soon as it was time to plant it.
Only plant, do not harvest, and do not take care of.
This aroused my doubts, and I asked them if anything unusual had happened in the year they had returned.
The villagers said that on the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar every month, a group of people wearing black tunics would rush into the village and arrest one of the villagers, and no one knew where they had sent the person, only that on the first day of the second month, a new grave would appear in the back mountain.
