Chapter 211: Cause and Effect
"Who the hell are you? Why do I know my identity? Zombie King Zhuang Gui couldn't hide his surprise anymore, and asked Huang Xiaohao with his eyes open.
"Hey~! It doesn't matter if you tell you, Huang Xiaohao, a poor Daoist, who worshiped Huang Yishui a few years ago, is the 138th generation descendant of the Laoshan faction. Huang Xiaohao smiled and opened his mouth to say, "The reason why I recognize your identity is just because I once saw the search portrait of the faction and recognized your appearance." ”
To tell the truth, the appearance of the corpse of the zombie king Zhuanggui is indeed well maintained, and there is almost no corruption and stiffness of ordinary zombies, nor is there any swelling caused by the erosion of corpse qi. His appearance can be clearly recognized, and he looks like a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties with a rich face.
If it weren't for the bloodless face and green fangs, it wouldn't look much different from a living person.
"Where did I come from, it turned out that I was still a junior. Speaking of which, your master Huang Yishui is still my nephew, you have to call me Uncle Zu~! Hearing Huang Xiaohao's nonsense, Zombie Wang Zhuanggui believed it, and his tone relaxed.
After all, thirty years have passed since those things in it. And his defection, Laoshan did not make a big deal about it back then, but deliberately covered up these things. If it weren't for people from the same sect, it would be impossible to know about these old things.
Although the kick when he opened the door just now, the kick made the zombie Wang Zhuanggui a little weak. The moment it was kicked away, it even had doubts in its heart about "who is the mighty zombie".
That's why at the beginning, it would make a fool of Huang Xiaohao, wanting to bluff away Huang Xiaohao, who didn't know the root and didn't know the strength.
Now when I hear Huang Xiaohao's words, I know that he is just a junior who has just cultivated for a few years. Moreover, the zombie king Zhuang Gui did not sense how deep the mana fluctuation was from Huang Xiaohao, and his mentality immediately relaxed.
As for the kick just now, Zombie Wang Zhuanggui thought in his heart that it should just be Huang Xiaohao's natural brute force.
"Phew~! What kind of uncle and ancestor, you, the guy who killed your fellow sect and stole the important treasures of the sect, have long been removed from the sect. If he hadn't entered the Hu Mansion and changed his name and surname, he would have already been cleaned up. Now I still have a face, dare to pretend to be big in front of the master~! ”
Although it was said that he had just thought about it and casually made up the identity of a disciple of the Laoshan faction, Huang Xiaohao acted very realistically, and played the tone and mentality of a disciple of the Laoshan faction vividly, and he couldn't see the slightest flaw at all.
The reason why he wanted to pretend to be a disciple of the Laoshan faction was just to use this identity to set a good set of details about the zombie king's return to Zhuanggui.
"However, the master is very curious, when you defected to the sect thirty years ago, you were already seriously injured, and the elders in the sect have already concluded that you will not live long. How the hell did you survive for 20 years? How can he still maintain his soul when he turns into a zombie after death? ”
"Haha~! Lingering, to put it well, the twenty years I was injured were indeed living like lingering. Hearing Huang Xiaohao's words, the eyes of the zombie king Zhuanggui immediately burst out with a strong hatred, as if he had betrayed the teacher back then and had another hidden secret, looking bitter and hateful.
However, it didn't mean to talk about these past events with Huang Xiaohao, a "disciple grandchild", but turned his head around, with a faint look of pride, as if he wanted to show off to Huang Xiaohao, opened his mouth to elaborate and answer Huang Xiaohao's two questions.
"You, junior, do you know the secret art of alchemy in the sect?"
Hearing the question of the zombie Wang Zhuanggui, Huang Xiaohao had a thought, and immediately clicked on the end reading app of the mobile phone system in his mind, and found the Laoshan sect exercises from the sect classification interface of the library, and immediately found the methods related to alchemy.
"But that book of "Nine Shadows Refining Corpse Recipe"?"
Manipulating zombies to fight is not uncommon among the Daomen. Almost every sect knows some methods of subduing and controlling zombies, and some sects even have unique secret methods that can improve the strength and combat power of zombies.
For example, the four-eyed Taoist of the Maoshan faction, through years of experience in chasing corpses, summed up and created a book of "Corpse Control Technique", which can control the walking corpse zombies to form a formation against the enemy, and there are also some unique features. This "Corpse Control Technique" was also taught to Huang Xiaohao by the four-eyed Taoist as a reward for chasing corpses.
And the "Nine Shadows Corpse Refining Formula" that Huang Xiaohao found from the library is the unique secret method of corpse refining of the Laoshan faction.
Huang Xiaohao didn't redeem this secret method, but just looked at its introduction. This corpse refining technique also seems to be somewhat unique, it can improve the flexibility of the manipulated zombies through some means, and even feed itself and improve its own cultivation mana by refining the corpse qi on the zombies.
The exchange price of this "Nine Shadows Refining Corpse Recipe" in the library is 50,000 merit points. This exchange price is already very high. You must know that the book "Corpse Control Technique" created by the four-eyed Taoist master himself is only 10,000 merit points in the library.
"That's right, it's the Nine Shades Refining Corpse Recipe." Zombie Wang Zhuang saw that Huang Xiaohao knew this secret method, and even more determined the identity of Huang Xiaohao's juniors, and he was even more fearless in his heart, and explained to Huang Xiaohao with a three-point show-off and four-point smug mentality.
"Thirty years ago, when I defected to the school, I was indeed seriously injured and had no medical treatment. But there is no endless road, this king is talented, at that time when he was dying, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, remembered the "Nine Shadows Refining Corpse Technique", and immediately applied the secret method in the book to his own body and saved his life. ”
"You think you're a zombie? You weren't dead then, were you? Aren't you afraid that you will die faster if you come so nonsense? Although he didn't redeem the "Corpse Refining Formula", just looking at the introduction, Huang Xiaohao also understood the role of that secret method.
That's just a secret method for refining and manipulating zombies, how can it be used on living people.
"Hey~! This is another of the king's geniuses. At that time, there happened to be a treasure on this king's body, which played the most crucial role in my practice of "Nine Shades Refining Corpse Technique". This zombie Wang Zhuang Gui didn't know what to think, and he really talked to Huang Xiaohao carefully about what happened at that time.
"It's the Taiyin Bead that you stole from the sect, right? But isn't that bead only able to gather the power of the moon? What does it have to do with your "Corpse Refining Formula"? When Huang Xiaohao heard the zombie Wang Zhuanggui say this, he immediately remembered the scene he saw last night.
The effect of the Taiyin Bead gathering the power of the moon is indeed very helpful for the cultivation of ghosts and zombies. But for the living, it is of little use. Therefore, after this Taiyin bead was stolen, I didn't see the people of the Laoshan faction really persevering in the investigation, and they swore not to give up if they didn't find it, but gave up after only looking for a few years.
"You even know this, yes, it's because it's too yin. The power of the moon gathered by the Taiyin Bead can indeed only be used for the cultivation of ghosts and monsters. However, did you know that this Taiyin Bead also has a name, which is called the Soul Rejuvenation Bead. The zombie king's face was smug, and he continued.
"This soul bead can warm and solidify the three souls and seven spirits. When I started to use the "Corpse Refining Formula" on myself, I did almost die, but thanks to the effect of this soul bead to solidify the soul, it saved my life, and solidified my three souls and seven souls on myself, as long as I was still angry, I would not die because of this "Corpse Refining Formula". ”
"So, have you trained yourself to be half human and half corpse?" Hearing the zombie king Zhuang Gui say this, Huang Xiaohao immediately sensed the consequences of his doing.
"No human, no ghost, half human, half corpse? Hehe, that's right, it's this state that allowed me to drag this broken body and survive for another twenty years. Zombie King Zhuang Gui admitted calmly and replied, "If I don't do this, how can I live for another twenty years, I'm afraid I would have died on the side of the road at that time." ”
"So, the reason why you were able to maintain your soul after becoming a zombie is also because you have returned your soul beads?" Huang Xiaohao then asked.
The people of the Daomen know that after the zombies are unearthed and kill all their blood relatives, they will indeed regenerate their souls. But that newborn soul has almost nothing to do with the original body, and it can be said that it is a new soul.
As for the soul of the original zombie. Those who have no worries are immediately pulled by the six reincarnations and enter the underworld to wait for reincarnation. Those who are obsessed with it will turn into lonely ghosts and stay in the world. Those who are deeply resentful become ghosts and ghosts, asking for their lives and harming others.
All three of these are when the soul leaves the body after death, and it is impossible for the soul to remain in the body.
And Zhuang Gui's current situation, it is obvious that in this zombie body, it is its own soul, not some new soul.
"That's right, in order for one's soul to remain in the body after death. I arranged it for many years before I died, and after I died, I relied on the soul beads to solidify my soul, and the incense offerings of my family to strengthen my soul power, and finally it took ten years to reintegrate my soul with this zombie body. ”
"I see, you didn't come out to harm people until you completely refined yourself into a zombie, right?" When Huang Xiaohao said this, he glanced around at the dozen or so sarcophagi around him, "As soon as you succeeded, you first bit your family to death?" They died unjustly~! ”
"It's not wronged at all, if it weren't for me, the Hu family would have been dispersed a long time ago. With my help, they have continued to be rich for decades, so it's normal for me to receive a little payment, right? Moreover, what's wrong with becoming a zombie now, abandoning that weak human body and becoming an immortal zombie, and following me to practice, even the avenue can be expected, it's just a great good thing. ”
"Oh~! It turns out that after becoming a zombie, there are so many benefits~! Huang Xiaohao nodded, as if he agreed with what the zombie king Zhuang Gui said.
"There are many benefits of being a zombie, such as infinite strength, invulnerability, etc., and when you become a zombie, you will be able to experience the benefits I mentioned for yourself." When Zombie King Zhuang Gui said this, a gloomy smile appeared on his face, and then he said, "Now, you will obediently suffer death~!" ”
"Wait a minute, I have one last question." Huang Xiaohao stretched out his hand to signal it to pause, and asked, "I want to know, did you do it when the old lady in Renjiazhen was buried in a coffin, but turned into a zombie and harmed people?" ”
"You're really well-informed, you even know about such trivial things?"
Zombie Wang Zhuanggui was slightly surprised when he heard Huang Xiaohao's question, but he still replied.
"Yes, I did it. Moreover, it was deliberately designed by me twenty years ago, so that the old lady came to rob the dragonfly XUE I found, and specially refined him into a zombie. Calculating the time, it should also be unearthed from the coffin. Originally, I still used some hands and feet on it, as long as it killed all its blood relatives and became a thousand-year-old zombie king, it would automatically find my side and become my right-hand man. But..."
"But it didn't come, did it?" Huang Xiaohao said with a smile.
"That's right, I'm planning to go to Renjia Town to inspect after a while, after stabilizing my condition. But now it seems that the old lady has been solved? Zombie Wang Zhuanggui saw the smile on Huang Xiaohao's face, and also guessed the fate of the zombie of Old Lady Ren.
"You guessed it right, the one who solved the zombie of Old Lady Ren was myself." Huang Xiaohao gave a thumbs up to the Zombie King, confirming that his guess was correct.
"Moreover, you don't have to go to Renjia Town anymore, because you are about to die here, the kind that died very completely, and your bones are scattered."
"Heh~! The young man has a big breath, so let's see who died here~! The Zombie King shouted his last words and waved his hands upward.
"Bang bang bang~!" The sound sounded instantly, but it was the coffin lids of the dozen sarcophagus, which were vigorously lifted away.
More than a dozen high-level zombies with a thick corpse qi stood straight from the sarcophagus in a way that did not conform to the laws of physics.
In fact, the reason why the zombie king Zhuang Gui said so many things to Huang Xiaohao just now was to delay time and secretly manipulate and wake up these zombies.
After all, although this is an underground secret room that does not see the light of day, the current time period is still just after noon. During this time period, it is impossible for those zombies to take the initiative to wake up, and they have to be manipulated by the zombie king Zhuanggui to overcome their instincts, wake up, and help them deal with the enemy of Huang Xiaohao.
"Your hole cards, shouldn't it be just a few stinky fish and rotten shrimp?" Huang Xiaohao looked at the dozen or so high-level zombies that jumped out of the sarcophagus and surrounded him, and asked with a disdainful smile.
