Chapter 159: Charred Black Corpse

Wu Zhiyuan hurriedly followed the barking of dogs, and sure enough, he found the barking dogs by the outer wall of a house, but the scene in front of him made him stop far away, and he was stunned in place.

I saw that the dogs bared their teeth and barked around a black thing, and at the same time, the black thing also saw Wu Zhiyuan, he turned his head slowly with stiff movements, and only a pair of black rumbling eyes turned slightly against the backdrop of the blood-red whites of his eyes.

Several dogs all barked at a distance of three feet, and seemed to be very afraid of this thing, and did not dare to come forward to bite it, and this black thing also seemed to have a natural fear of dogs, and the siege of several dogs made him wander left and right, and seemed a little flustered.

"What the hell is this?" Wu Zhiyuan stared at the black humanoid monster, he had no clothes all over his body, but he was charred black, as if he had been burned by fire.

At this time, a head quietly poked out of the wall, and a man looked at the thing carefully, and then quickly retracted his head, obviously frightened, but after a while, he stretched out his head again, and at the same time saw Wu Zhiyuan standing in the distance.

"Hey...... Big brother. The person on the wall obviously remembered Wu Zhiyuan, so he lowered his voice and called, and when he saw him looking this way, he beckoned to him and motioned for him to leave quickly.

Wu Zhiyuan nodded when he saw this, but did not reply.

Several dogs were half-squatting on their front and back legs, making a forward momentum, and although they barked fiercely, they never dared to take a half step forward. The black thing looked at Wu Zhiyuan for a moment, and then slowly turned his head to look at the few dogs surrounding him, and at this moment, Wu Zhiyuan saw that the thing had a long braid dragging behind its head!

"Is that him?" Wu Zhiyuan was taken aback for a moment, this black thing was actually the eunuch with long braids who had been beaten to death by the villagers before. Isn't he dead? Is it a corpse? But how could the corpse be as if it had been burned by fire?

A series of question marks could not be answered, but there was a certain amount of Wu Zhiyuan who could conclude that this black thing must be very dangerous and should not be underestimated.

At the same time, his mind recalled what was recorded in Shigong's Maoshan notebook, no matter what kind of corpse transformation, the black dog blood could be restrained. Regardless of whether the thing could be heard or understood, Wu Zhiyuan directly shouted to the villagers on the wall: "You go find a pot of black dog blood, and I will drag him down!" ”

The person at the head of the wall didn't dare to respond, but when he heard Wu Zhiyuan's words, he shrank his head.

The black thing turned his head when he heard the sound, his eyes stared at Wu Zhiyuan, only to see his shoulders move slightly, and he gently moved a step towards Wu Zhiyuan. As soon as he moved, the dogs around him barked more fiercely.

After a step, the thing stopped, and then stretched out his hand to Wu Zhiyuan, his black palm was up, and his arm was stretched out, as if he was asking Wu Zhiyuan for something.

Wu Zhiyuan was slightly puzzled, but instantly understood, and took out a handkerchief from his arms, which was found from his body.

"You want this?" Wu Zhiyuan pinched the corner of the handkerchief and held it up in front of his eyes.

When the thing saw the handkerchief in Wu Zhiyuan's hand, it seemed to be extremely nervous, and immediately walked over to Wu Zhiyuan, while several dogs followed him and barked wildly.

"It turns out that he really wants this handkerchief." Wu Zhiyuan secretly wondered in his heart, could this handkerchief have any special meaning to him, otherwise he would not attach so much importance to it. As you think, slowly take a few steps back, trying to keep a certain distance from the thing, and if something happens, you have time to dodge.

While retreating, Wu Zhiyuan kept looking at the courtyard gate of the house, hoping that he could do his best to find the black dog's blood.

Seeing that Wu Zhiyuan kept retreating, the black thing suddenly accelerated the speed on his feet, and ran towards Wu Zhiyuan, the sensitive Cheng dΓΉ on his feet was completely different from the stiff action when he turned his head, which made Wu Zhiyuan secretly frightened, so he didn't dare to slack off, and was about to turn his head and run wildly, when suddenly four figures jumped out from his side, Wu Zhiyuan saw that it was actually four zombies.

It's a black corpse and a zombie, it seems that this time it's going to be a little hard, Wu Zhiyuan was thinking about it, his shoulder was pulled back hard, and he involuntarily retreated, and at the same time, a few copper bells rang in his ears.

Wu Zhiyuan looked back and saw that it was actually the Moon Shadow Fuxian who was dragging him, only to see that she had a stern expression, her eyes looked at the black thing that came running, and she shook the copper bell in her hand, and the four zombies jumped in a row, just blocking the way of the thing.

Moon Shadow Fuxian shook the copper bell again, and the four zombies took advantage of the situation to surround the thing, put their arms together, and thrust towards the neck of the thing at the same time.

These four zombies did not really turn into zombies, but only used the Maoshan technique to suppress their corpse qi and control it, so the power was not great. The black thing reached out and pushed one of the zombies to the ground, but the zombie stopped moving after it fell to the ground, but kept its arms stretched forward. Wu Zhiyuan saw that the ten fingers of the zombie's hands were all scorched black, and his hands were just inserted into the neck of the black thing.

"Be careful, that thing is poisonous!" Wu Zhiyuan reminded the Moon Shadow Fuxian beside him.

"I know without you saying it." Moon Shadow Fuxian didn't even look at Wu Zhiyuan, and replied coldly.

Seeing that the thing pushed down the second zombie in front of him, Wu Zhiyuan began to recall whether there were other ways to restrain himself in Maoshan's notes, and at this moment, a crack opened in the courtyard door of the house, and a man rushed out with a basin of blood in his hand.

"Black Dog Blood!" When the man saw this, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to come closer, so he put the pot of black dog blood on the ground from a distance, turned his head and ran back, closing the courtyard door.

Wu Zhiyuan did not hesitate, rushed over with an arrow step, picked up the basin of black dog blood and splashed it on the black thing.

Impartially, it happened to be poured on the head of the thing, and even the three zombies next to it were not spared.

Suddenly, the thing let out a miserable scream, and white smoke continued to emit from his body, and then, the black flesh on his face and body turned into black slime as if it had melted, and it continued to flow down his body, turning into a puddle of black water and a skeleton in an instant.

The three zombies also fell to the ground, unresponsive.

Gradually, villagers continued to walk out of the courtyard gate and stand in the distance to watch, apparently they had found this black corpse from the beginning, just to protect themselves, they could only hide at home.

The man with the black dog's blood at the end was relatively bold, and when he saw that the black corpses and zombies had fallen to the ground, there was no movement, so he had the courage to come to the corpses, and after a sigh, he thanked Wu Zhiyuan: "Big brother, fortunately you came back, you are really a great benefactor of our village." ”

Wu Zhiyuan stared at the pool of black water and the skeleton, but he was thinking about another thing in his mind, and he didn't hear the man's words at all.

"Big ...... Big brother, this ...... What to do with these corpses? Seeing that Wu Zhiyuan was silent for a long time, the man stepped forward and pulled his sleeve and asked.

"Find some peach wood and willow branches, and cremate them on the spot." Wu Zhiyuan came back to his senses and said that according to Shigong's record in Maoshan Notes, cremation with peach wood and willow branches can eliminate corpse poison and prevent zombies from regenerating.

The man called for a few bold young men, and soon brought a bunch of peach and willow branches, most of which were hoarded by the villagers' homes and kept for heating in the winter, so they were very dry.

Wu Zhiyuan remembered that he was empty-handed, and he didn't even have basic self-defense, and the most commonly used magic weapon of the Maoshan faction was the peach wood sword, so he walked to the pile of peach wood, selected the straightest peach wood, borrowed a knife from the villagers, and sharpened it into a simple peach wood sword.

"You're sharpening a wooden sword?" The man looked at the wooden sword in Wu Zhiyuan's hand and asked curiously.

"Pile the peach wood and willow branches on the corpse and light a fire." Wu Zhiyuan did not answer his words, but commanded.

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly threw the peach tree willow branch on the pile of corpses, and used hay as a fire to ignite the pile of branches, and suddenly, the sound of "crackling" was endless, the fire was very strong, and the corpses were burned in the fire, but they could not smell any smell of burning corpses, which was also one of the characteristics of peach wood and willow branches burning corpses.

"Burn your master's customers, what do you take to Yidu County to pay the errand?" Moon Shadow Fuxian looked sideways at Wu Zhiyuan, under the light of the fire, her skin was pink and delicate, charming and moving.

"These four corpses can't be kept, they are all contaminated with the corpse poison of the black corpse, and it is also a scourge to keep them." Wu Zhiyuan replied, "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and let's talk about it when we get to Yidu County." ”

After the fire was completely extinguished, Wu Zhiyuan ordered everyone to bury the ashes with soil, and after the fire was finished, he borrowed torches from the villagers.

"Big brother, you have saved our village over and over again, I really don't know how to thank you." Everyone expressed their gratitude.

During the day, the middle-aged woman holding the baby asked, "I don't know what you call Engong?" ”

Wu Zhiyuan looked at this group of simple villagers, and was very ashamed of their gratitude, he recalled that his master had said that he could not call himself a disciple of Maoshan in the future, so he had an idea, hid his real name, and replied with a smile: "My name is Wu Maoshan." ”

"Little brother, our whole village will remember you." An old man said gratefully.

Wu Zhiyuan's face was shy, and after some excuses, he said goodbye to the villagers and walked to the southeast with the Moon Shadow Fuxian.

"You're intoxicated by the feeling of being adored?" Moon Shadow Fuxian asked after Wu Zhiyuan.

"If I like to be adored, I won't fail to reveal my real name." Wu Zhiyuan replied, his footsteps did not stop.

"Where are you going?" Moon Shadow Fuxian changed the subject, which meant that she was beginning to understand Wu Zhiyuan's words.

"You'll find out with me." Wu Zhiyuan held the torch, strode forward, and replied indirectly.

Moon Shadow Fuxian looked to the southeast, a hill was undulating under the night, the two of them had already driven the zombies through that mountain road before, could it be that Wu Zhiyuan was going to go to the mountain temple he had encountered before?
