Chapter 278: Corpse Pill
I was surprised to see that he looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, but I couldn't ask too directly out of politeness.
It lasted for about five minutes before Old Man Chen put down his chopsticks and said to me: "Zombies, you can't do alchemy, you said last time, there was a person who said that zombies' inner pills can live forever if they eat them, that is a false statement." The real Inner Dan is gone after death, and although the effect of the Inner Dan is peculiar, it does not have the effect of making people immortal. ”
"According to you, those people are bringing a bunch of zombies over for some other purpose?" Frowning and thinking about it, I asked.
"No, I just said that, just to correct your words, this does not mean that what those people do has nothing to do with alchemy, zombies cannot be used to make pills, many people know this, but, in the early years, there were indeed some people who used the characteristics of zombies to do this kind of thing."
"What do you mean?" After thinking about it for a while, I didn't understand it too much, Old Man Chen shook his head and smiled bitterly when he heard this: "What I told you before, do you remember, I said, zombies are different from ghosts, they have spirits, they have no soul, they don't have autonomous consciousness, they can't think, they will only rely on instinctive consciousness to do things, right." ”
"Yes. I remember. Nodding, I said.
"However, there is one thing you may not know, there is a difference between the spirit of a zombie and the spirit of a human, and there is a very peculiar use. Speaking of which, this was many years ago, I heard from the predecessors, in the mountains of the north, there is a group of people who do not know their origin, these people, from a Wuzhu people who have long disappeared, no one knows their true identity, only know, they rarely interact with outsiders and have a very strange spell. According to legend, they all slept during the day and moved at night, often going out in groups, and every time they went out, they invariably carried some corpses back, and they didn't know what they were for. Because of their mysterious whereabouts and special dress, these people are often used as Yin soldiers to preach around as soon as they appear. In times of war, their movements become particularly frequent, but when the days calm down, they rarely show up. About twenty years ago, they suddenly appeared, after disappearing for half a century, which quickly attracted the attention of some of their peers. Once, a few young mages who didn't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth walked together to investigate what these things were all about, and after many verifications, they finally found a few clues after more than a month. These people, after several days in the mountains, finally met those people. They didn't make a fuss, and quietly followed each other into the mountain, but who would have thought that this entry would result in an ending of nine deaths and one life. In the end, only three people came out alive, and all the rest suffered accidents. ”
Old Man Chen said, raised his finger and gestured a "three", seeing that he wanted to speak and stopped, I hurriedly asked: "Three?" Are all the people who went in but these three dead? ”
"No, all but two of them are dead." Old Man Chen said, sighing, as soon as he heard this, all the people present were puzzled, Ding Ling put down his chopsticks and asked very respectfully: "Old man, do you mean to say that those two surviving people brought out one of their clansmen from the mountain?" ”
"Yes." Old Man Chen nodded, put up his rice bowl, when I heard this, a very strange feeling rose from the bottom of my heart, I frowned, and asked in a slightly nervous whisper: "Old Man Chen, these two people who came out of the mountains are also Maoshan disciples?" ”
"Yes." Old Man Chen said, nodded again, looking at his expression, I grinned: "Old man, you are not talking about Jin Jiuye and Jin Jiuye's father!" ”
"Hehe, you guessed it." Old Man Chen said, smiled bitterly, as soon as these words came out, I was speechless at that time, after a short period of stunned, it was shock, after shock, it was fear, and there was a little curiosity in the fear, and it was very painful to be curious.
Well, as soon as this story is told, a lot of problems are connected.
Sensei asked, since it was Jin Jiuye and Jiuye's father Jin Daoqing who came out of the mountain, the third person must be the mother of the ghost who went early!
Regarding the life experience of the ghost, the ninth master only revealed a little, it is said that her mother died not long after the ghost was born, and how she died, the ninth master has always refused to say.
But from the words and words, it can be seen that Jiu Ye's mother comes from a little-known mysterious race, and it is said that those people have a very destructive spell, which is not inferior to Maoshan Dao Method.
The Ninth Master also said in person that the situation was very dangerous at that time, he and his father almost died there, and the strange problem of ghosts always wearing a mask was also developed from the time when her mother was alive, so ghosts and ghosts are also part of that mysterious race?
At least half of the pedigree too!
No wonder this Nizi is not the same as a normal person, it turns out that she is a mixed race~ Thinking of this, another question came out again, since the ghost is also a member of that mysterious nation, then, is the special situation that she can't leave the iron tower have something to do with it? Thinking about Mr. Chen's description of those people, it reminded me of a group of people who came out day and night at that time!
On the way to the Valley of the Wind God, we clearly met a group of extremely tall and tall people with bamboo poles hanging a group of dead people walking back, those guys, wearing black and white clothes, are very similar to the legendary "impermanence ghosts", but we have not been sure what they are from, but, I remember, when I saw those things again, Jiu Ye and the old man who drove the car, his face was surprised but not nervous at all, the expression was strange, I have always been unable to understand, now that I think about it, he is more like saying: "." , how are these people here! ”
Changbai Mountain, the old forest, a group of people who look weird day and night! Thinking about it like this, is Old Man Chen talking about them!!
Thinking of this, I opened my mouth wide, never expecting that the doubts about the zombie alchemy would lead to such a big mystery. was about to follow up on this clue, but suddenly saw Old Man Chen's silent son speak: "Dad, what do you say about using zombies to make alchemy?" ”
"Yes, of course. The matter of using zombies to make alchemy was discovered by Senior Brother Daoqing. He told me that the reason why the mysterious race in the mountains came out of the mountains to collect corpses everywhere and bring them back was because they wanted to use those zombies to refine a medicine that could make people immortal. ”
