Chapter 14: The Corpse Chasers on the Edge of the Star Lake
Half a month later, Zhao Kun once again climbed Zhongnan Mountain.
And he swaggered to follow the dead fat man Tu Huaishen, and was greeted by the disciples of the Star Palace.
There is no doubt that Zhao Kun's appearance at this time is exactly the same as that of the Demon Sanren Buzhang. At this time, his identity is Buzhang, a corpse chaser from Xiangxi.
――The raven is just a thief who everyone chases and kills and shouts to fight Jiangnan, how can anyone who is feared by those who have heard of him have a high status of the moody Mosan? What's more, according to Qingchen's intelligence, the Demon Scatterer Buzhang belongs to the strange people that the Star Palace is vigorously recruiting, while the Dirty Raven is not.
It seems that Xinggong has taken a fancy to Buzhang's corpse chasing technique, and Zhao Kun will naturally not let go of this opportunity.
Pretending to be a step chapter, he accepted the invitation of the Star Palace, and sneaked in to wait for the opportunity to kill, and ran away before he ran out of bullets. With this in mind, Zhao Kun, who planned to take the step seal, rushed to the city in the river.
Then, undoubtedly, as soon as he showed this signboard—twelve black-clothed 'men' in wide black cloth robes, with yellow runes on their heads, six feet apart from each other, jumping forward under Zhao Kun's bell—that night, a disciple of the Star Palace who was not afraid of death came to the door.
The two really hit it off, and early the next morning, Zhao Kun followed the disciples of the Star Palace and crossed the Yellow River from Shanxi to Qinchuan......
Zhongnan, also known as the Qinling Mountains, stretches from north to south, stretching for hundreds of miles from east to west. The climate in the south and north of the mountain is very different, often the south of the mountain is fragrant and beautiful, and the north of the mountain is still windy and snowy. Therefore, although Zhao Kun was in the south of the mountain, he had never traveled all over this huge Zhongnan Mountain, let alone knew that there was a big lake on this mountain.
The sky was slightly bright, and Zhao Kun stood on the shore looking at the blue lake like the night sky, surrounded by twelve walking corpses, and an ox cart dragging two good coffins.
As for Tu Huaishen and the others, they stood a little farther away and unconsciously stayed away from them.
According to Tu Huaishen's original intention, he wanted to have a relationship with this demon scattered person who was recruited by the Star Palace. It's just that Buzhang is a moody and cold character, and Zhao Kun naturally acted very similarly.
What's more, this matter of driving out corpses is usually regarded as an evil law by the world, and this magic does belong to the category of witchcraft, and even Zhao Kun feels that the evil door is tight. Even if the martial arts people are quite bold, in the face of the moving corpse, it is inevitable to be frightened, and the longer they travel along the way, the more unpredictable they feel, and they instinctively want to stay away from the corpse team.
Zhao Kun didn't care, he came here with the idea of making a big fuss.
The island's peaks appear and disappear in the morning mist. He secretly calculated: It is said that the Star Palace is on a big island ten miles away from the lake, and with Zhao Kun's water nature and light skills, if you don't have a boat, you can only rely on swimming. In this way, if you can't grab the boat after killing people and setting fire to the island, you may not be able to leave.
And considering that the island is heavily guarded, it is really not easy to make trouble in the heart of the Star Palace and want to get out of the way.
Fortunately, he was not alone, and there were twelve walking corpses and two demons to serve as an arm.
Although the corpse chase time is mostly carried out at night, it is just a measure to avoid frightening passers-by, and these walking corpses of the Xiangxi corpse chasing faction are not like zombies and demons who are afraid of the sun and glutinous rice.
It's just that compared to the legendary zombies, their combat effectiveness is not high. At the same time, these corpses have no senses, and can only rely on the corpse chasers to urge. Although its own strength is infinite, it is difficult to hurt with knives and guns, and it is useless to be injured, but this thing has no sanity at all. In order to make it easier to drive away corpses, even the instinct of having nothing is suppressed by the rune paper, and it is a big problem to rely on the corpse chaser.
The descendants of the corpse always wore a pair of straw sandals, a green cloth robe, a black belt around the waist, a green cloth hat on the head, and a bag of talismans hidden in the waist bag.
Master teaches disciples, the first thing is to draw talismans, control the corpse with talismans, and make corpses with talismans. Then there are the 36 merits of driving out corpses - the first is the "standing merit" of the dead body, that is, the first thing is to make the dead body stand up; The second skill is the "walking skill", that is, the ability to stop the corpse and walk freely, and the third skill is the "turning skill", that is, the corpse can turn when walking. In addition, there are also "downhill skills", "bridge crossing skills", "dumb dog skills" and so on.
In general, these walking corpses that have been tempered with the secret methods of the corpse chasing sect and have been recuperated for a long time are more like puppets or marionettes.
Therefore, the patriarch of Buzhang has also conducted research and conducted experiments on the cultivation of intelligent walking corpses. So there are two coffins on the ox cart behind Zhao Kun now.
- There were two corpses called Demon Corpses.
It's called a corpse, but it's just a living person who has been concocted and raised like a corpse. It's just that this person is usually mentally damaged, and his body is purified with secret medicine and secret methods, and he looks like a lifelike corpse, and his physical strength is similar to that of the walking corpse they usually drive.
But it was indeed a living man. Although they didn't need to eat or drink food, they instead needed to absorb yin qi or blood food, and even their heartbeats dropped to the point of beating once an hour. This kind of demon corpse is the only humanoid puppet that the corpse chasing sect can refine with a sanity and does not need to be manipulated by hand. As the level of cultivation increases, they can even perform the martial arts they used before their deaths or learn the martial arts handed to them by the corpse chasers.
Zhao Kun came to the Star Palace, relying on the pistol and the fact that he could retreat to another world at any time, it was the two demon corpses that Bu Zhang had worked hard to cultivate for ten years.
In fact, Zhao Kun has also tried to cultivate this thing. However, the material for refining this thing has to be yin, and the yin qi is heavy, and the cultivation must be a martial arts master with negative internal strength. Zhao Kun finally collected two, but the time was too short. One of the two experiments has only been lying down for three years, and the other has just been buried more than ten days ago - it is light dust. Now they can only be counted as vegetative people in a state of near shock, not some demon corpse.
The two steps took ten years to form. Fortunately, these two demon corpses are indeed extraordinary, and they are the masters of the Liu family in Taiyuan back then, and after ten years of training, they are also infinitely powerful, copper-skinned and iron-clad, and powerful. The most important thing is to be able to listen to commands and understand some simple passwords.
These two are a team of twin sisters, one Liu Hua and one Liu Xiao, who were born in the Taiyuan Liu family that now sits in the world in Bianliang City. Speaking of which, she is still the cousin of the young son of heaven. At that time, he was accepted as a disciple by Zhu Doudag, a person from Jinguang Dao in Saibei, and his cold martial arts and combined attack techniques were also famous, known as 'Liu's Shuangying'. It's a pity that he was captured by Buzhang with three indiscriminate means and trained into a demon corpse.
Now the cold internal strength of these two people is not what it used to be, and even the first-class masters dare not take it hard - if they don't want to die of cold poison.
