Chapter 13: The Bronze Coffin
The three of them didn't care about wondering, so they stared nervously at the coffin.
"Master, it can't be a corpse!" Zhou Yun was extremely nervous.
"It's possible, but this red-painted coffin doesn't stand up to as a zombie." He Wentian also frowned. And Yang Ying didn't say a word on the side.
"Master, should we open the coffin?" Zhou Yun asked cautiously.
He Wentian frowned and pondered for a while and said, "Okay, open!" Taking advantage of the fact that there is just a corpse reaction now, it should be better to deal with it, and it will be more troublesome to wait for a long time. β
Yang Ying listened in a daze, "Open ............ Coffin? β
"Yes, open the coffin!" He Wentian walked to the red lacquered coffin and heard some slight movement inside. Three people stood on three sides of the red lacquered coffin, ready to open the coffin.
At this time, He Wentian found that the surface of the red lacquered coffin had some faint black lines. If you look closely, it turns out to be a subtle ink fountain line! I can't help but get even more nervous!
[Ink fountain line] is a method of preventing corpse transformation, using pure yang rooster blood and ink to tie a grid-like ink fountain line on the coffin with cotton thread to prevent the corpse from escaping out of the coffin after the corpse metamorphosis. is a way to trap the corpse of the corpse.
"Okay, now open the coffin!" After the coffin nail was lifted, He Wentian instructed the two to lift the coffin lid.
After the lid of the coffin was lifted, the three of them were stunned at the same time.
Because the red lacquer coffin is not a corpse that has been transformed, but another bronze ancient coffin.
The three of them put the lid of the coffin aside, and He Wentian frowned with a serious face.
And Zhou Yun was also silent on the side.
"Master, what's going on?" Yang Ying on the side couldn't help asking.
He Wentian sighed, "This is a coffin in a coffin." I said that I felt something was wrong when I looked at this coffin just now, and it turned out that this coffin was too big. Just now, I just thought that maybe people have money and like such a big coffin, but it turns out that there is a coffin in the coffin. β
"And it's a bronze coffin." Zhou Yun also frowned and said.
"What happened to the bronze coffin? Isn't it different from ordinary people's coffins? What's the difference! Yang Ying looked disapplied.
"Metals are originally yang, just like coins and copper coins, which are all stained with yang energy, so they cannot be used to make coffins. Because the metal yang energy will suppress the yin energy in the coffin, so that the soul of the deceased will be trapped inside, and it will not be possible to reincarnate. He Wentian said in a deep voice, "And the reason why metal coffins are used can only explain one problem." β
"What's the problem?" Yang Ying still looked puzzled.
"That is, the corpse in the coffin has undergone a corpse transformation before the burial, so the metal coffin must be used to calm the corpse and prevent the corpse from cheating and hurting people." Zhou Yun said in a low voice.
"And the metal coffin, the gold and silver coffin is too extravagant, unless it is the emperor, no one can afford to use it, and the iron coffin will corrode and oxidize. Only bronze ware is more corrosion-resistant, will form an oxide film, and the coffin will be relatively well preserved. He Wentian explained to Yang Ying, "So when you see a bronze coffin, you will know that the coffin should be a zombie." β
[Zombie] people die without stiffness. Absorb yin qi and become a monster that moves stiffly and sucks the essence and blood of living creatures.
[Types of Zombies]
The first level is "white zombie": after the corpse is raised in the corpse ground, it begins to grow fluffy white hair after a month, this kind of zombie is slow to move, very easy to deal with, it is very afraid of sunlight, but also afraid of fire, afraid of water, afraid of chickens, afraid of dogs, and more afraid of people.
The second level is "black stiff", after absorbing yin qi in the ground for several years, the white stiff will shed its white hair, replaced by a body of black hair a few inches long, at this time is still afraid of sunlight and fire, and the action is relatively slow, but at first not afraid of chickens and dogs, generally speaking, the black zombie will avoid seeing people, and do not dare to fight directly with people, and often suck human blood in people's sleep (black zombie and white zombie together are called "black and white zombie"). Tens of thousands of incidents of 'unknown blood-sucking creatures' attacking livestock have been reported in villages and farms around the world, and some even believe that "wild people" are black zombies).
The third level is the "jumping corpse", the black zombie inhales for a few decades, the black hair is off, the action begins to jump, the jump is fast and far, afraid of the sun, not afraid of people and not afraid of any domestic animals (the dog that can usually bark again, once it encounters the 'black zombie' or 'jumping corpse', it will not bark, but the cat will bark cold when it sees the zombie).
The fourth level of "flying corpses" evolves from jumping corpses to embrace the gloomy moonlight, flying corpses are often zombies that are more than a hundred years old or even hundreds of years old, with agile movements, jumping on houses and trees, jumping vertically like flying, sucking essence without leaving external injuries.
The fifth-level zombie is almost demonic, named "Lu", also known as "Drought Fish", "Fire Fish" and "Dry Fish", after the flying corpse absorbs the spirit for hundreds of years, the appearance becomes more and more hideous, it can be described as a blue-faced fanged Rakshasa who eats people, and can also change the body shape and appearance to confuse everyone, the upper can slay the dragon and the dry day, and the lower can extradite the plague god, and the dry day plague occurs from this (in ancient times, if the plague spreads with the drought, the common people will firmly believe that the drought is doing the blame).
The last level is also the most terrifying zombie, it should be said that it is no longer a "corpse", but a demon king, named "Xuan", with the terrifying power of calling a battle with the gods, thousands or even thousands of years of Taoism, Yuan Mei's "Continuation of the Child" is more cloudy zombies may turn into a Xuan: "Changzhou Jiang Mingfu said: The lions and elephants ridden by the Buddha are also known to people; The Buddha rides the sword, people don't know, the dragon is changed by zombies. "When a zombie transforms, it will let out a strange wail, jump three times, and turn into a beast. Therefore, it may be said: The corpse becomes a drought at the beginning, and then it becomes a revil. He has supernatural powers, spits fireworks in his mouth, and can fight with the dragon, so the Buddha rides to suppress it.
[Artifacts for subduing zombies]

"Stiff............ Corpse............!! Yang Ying's eyes widened like a bronze bell, "Isn't it......?" Master......"
"Well, it looks like we're going to have to be careful today!" He Wentian looked at Zhou Yun and He Wentian and nodded.
Strangely, after they opened the coffin, the original 'click, click' sound in the coffin actually stopped. Could it be that the corpse in the coffin is not transformed? Just their hallucinations? But the bronze ancient coffin in front of him is a definite proof that the one inside is definitely a zombie that has been transformed into a corpse!
"Master, what should I do?" Zhou Yun frowned, "Do we still want to open the coffin!" β
He Wentian stroked his goatee and said in a deep voice, "You and Xiao Yang first prepare the magic weapons needed to subdue the zombies, and first see what is abnormal in this bronze coffin." β
"Then Master must be careful." Yang Ying and Zhou Yun said cautiously.
Zhou Yun and Yang Ying took out a copper coin sword from the backpack behind them, this copper coin sword used 320 copper coins and pierced it with cinnabar-dyed red thread, secretly combining the five elements and the 64 hexagrams of the day after tomorrow. He took out a bronze mirror, a bag of glutinous rice, poured out a bowl of black dog blood from the bottle, and a stack of corpse yellow talismans.
He Wentian walked softly to the vicinity of the bronze ancient coffin to observe whether the bronze coffin was abnormal.
The strange thing is that the lines on the bronze coffin turned out to be the curved ripples of the Western Zhou Dynasty.
[Curved ripple] is a common pattern in bronzes in the Western Zhou Dynasty, symbolizing a kind of worship and yearning for the sea.
Why did this bronze coffin turn out to be from the Western Zhou Dynasty? Why did the people in the coffin be buried in this bronze ancient coffin of the Western Zhou Dynasty? Everything is like layers of fog, confusing people's hearts. "Are you ready?" He Wentian turned around and asked.
"Ready. Master, is there anything unusual about the bronze coffin? Zhou Yun asked out loud.
He Wentian nodded, "It's a little strange, but I don't know why yet, and there is nothing unusual about the rest." β
"Then do we still have to open the coffin?" Yang Ying frowned, he had never experienced these things, and he couldn't help but be a little scared.
"Of course you have to open it, how can you know what is going on without opening the coffin." He Wentian clasped his hands and frowned, "And I think there must be something strange in the coffin." Besides, if the corpse really changes, I can't let this evil obstacle run out and harm people. β
Zhou Yun and Yang Ying nodded together.
Yang Ying suddenly felt that she was shouldering the fate of many people.
I think that my choice to be a policeman at the beginning is to punish and eliminate evil, save the people of Dawn from fire and water, and no longer let the people be oppressed by some evil forces and bad people. It's ridiculous to think about it now, and my thoughts are too naΓ―ve and naΓ―ve. With just his meager strength, how can he fight against those high-ranking officials and dignitaries? In such a society, how can a small policeman uphold justice?
Although it is true that it is a society governed by the rule of law, if ordinary people break the law and are bound by the law, they will definitely be punished by the law. And if it is a rich and powerful person who violates the law, a better person will pay to reduce the punishment, which is also the helplessness of the law. Indeed, financial compensation is intended to safeguard the interests of the victims and their families. If financial compensation cannot reduce the punishment, no one is willing to pay compensation, and even if the court enforces financial compensation, the defendant can find various reasons to shirk it. Therefore, spending more money to reduce criminal liability is also a helpless move by the court. And some people with bad points will use their own connections, and even reverse black and white, make something out of nothing, and splash dirty water. They don't even bother to take advantage of the loopholes of the law, people are just a few cigarettes, a few piles of money, or even a sentence of a meal, and they will firmly press you, the people at the bottom, to the ground, and never turn over.
