The ancient well is at the south foot of a mountain peak on the north side of the village, six meters wide, surrounded by people, these people are local villagers, mostly men, among them there are some middle-aged women, very shabby clothes, the number of about 20 people, holding ropes and machetes in their hands, at this moment is around the ancient well leaning over to look into the well, ten steps away from the west side of the well, there is a strange female corpse, the female corpse is not wearing clothes, the whole body is black, the head was cut off and rolled down not far away, due to the unknown light of the fire, Zuo Dengfeng couldn't see the appearance of the female corpse clearly, and could only see that its hair was very long and messy.

The scene in front of him made Zuo Dengfeng very puzzled, although these villagers were shouting, their expressions were not nervous, and when they looked down the well, they still had a look of expectation and waiting, according to the expressions of these people, they didn't seem to be afraid of the things in the well.

"Come up, come up again, lassoze it." Zuo Dengfeng was secretly puzzled when the villagers at the mouth of the well began to shout again, and with the sound of shouting, several men holding ropes threw the ropes into the well, and then someone shouted, 'Lasso,'

Seeing this, the other villagers at the mouth of the well hurriedly reached out to help, dragging something upwards with their hands and feet, and after a while, a woman wearing ancient court clothes was dragged up from the well, and the woman was dragged up after her limbs stiffened, her arms stretched forward, and she jumped around, and her knees were not bent when she was beating, and it turned out to be a zombie surnamed a woman.

The villagers with machetes ran up and cut off its head with a knife, and as soon as the head fell off, the zombie immediately fell to the ground, and everyone rushed up, took off its clothes and shoes, and took off the hairpin on its head and the ornaments on its body.

Seeing this, Zuo Dengfeng was even more puzzled in his heart, this female corpse was wet when she was pulled out, which shows that there is indeed water in the well, but if there is water in the well, the zombie should have rotted in it, but in fact, the zombie's body is not rotten or swollen because it is soaked in water, and even the clothes and shoes are intact, in addition, ordinary zombies can't make a sound, because they are out of breath, and they can't make a sound when they are angry, but this female corpse let out a terrible scream before it was killed, Being able to call means that the breath is not broken.

Zuo Dengfeng was hidden in the dark with a head of fog, those villagers were not afraid of zombies, after cutting off the zombie's head, they methodically stripped the zombie from the property, according to the skill of their movements, they should have done similar things more than once, and soon the villagers stripped the zombie of the essence, and all the things that were peeled off were placed in a bamboo basket next to it.

At this time, the body of the zombie is still white, according to its slender waist and the small soybeans on the **, this zombie should be a young woman who has not given birth before her death, once a woman gives birth and breastfeeds, the soybeans will become peanuts, the mountain breeze blows, and the body of the zombie gradually turns black after a while.

"Village chief, what are you doing?" A villager holding a rope asked the old man, about sixty years old, tall and wrinkled, standing next to the bamboo basket.

"Let's get a few more." The old man looked up at the night sky, then reached out and picked up a pocket next to the box, and poured white things into the well, Zuo Dengfeng thought at first that he was pouring quicklime that could heat the well water, but later found that there was no dust drifting, and then he realized that he was pouring glutinous rice into the well.

Glutinous rice has long been used by Taoists to restrain zombies and remove the poison from corpses, and villagers poured glutinous rice into the well, probably to stimulate the zombies in the well and make them surface.

The old man poured all the glutinous rice in the cloth bag into the well, and then sat at the mouth of the well with the others to rest, the ancient well was overgrown with weeds, and there was no path for people to walk around, which showed that these people did not come here very often.

The villagers inevitably talked when they were resting, and Zuo Dengfeng listened to their conversation to know that the reason why they came to grab the zombies was to obtain the zombies' belongings and exchange them for food for the villagers, and he didn't talk too much about the origin of the ancient well and when they first discovered the existence of zombies here.

Zuo Dengfeng observed for a moment and then retreated, although this matter was very strange, it had nothing to do with him at all, and the aura of the zombie was very likely to attract cultivators.

After returning to the original place, Zuo Dengfeng sat in the car and pinched the qi gathering fingers, his pinching tips were purely unconscious habits, and after a while, he reacted and let go of the fingers, after the aura was abolished, the qi gathering fingers could still gather the aura of heaven and earth, but although these aura can be retained in the sea of qi, they cannot be used by themselves, and they will not play a good role and will cause the lower abdomen to bulge.

Half an hour later, those villagers left with torches, during which there were two more screams, although Zuo Dengfeng didn't care about what they did, but he still wondered how there were zombies in that ancient well, through the clothes of those zombies, it should be the palace maids of the Ming and Qing dynasties, as for the Ming Dynasty or the Qing Dynasty, he can't be sure, because the changes in clothing and hairstyles in the Ming and Qing dynasties were mainly for men, and women were not changed much.

The sky was slightly bright, Zuo Dengfeng set his horse and continued to march eastward, and before he went far he found that there was a monk in front of him, so he had no choice but to throw the carriage down, and took Thirteen into the woods, and marched east from the woods.

Passing by last night's ancient well, the zombies surnamed the female surname around the ancient well have been removed, Zuo Dengfeng probe looked at the well, the wall of the well is made of bluestone, it is covered with moss, the well water is dark blue, and there is no trace of glutinous rice from the wellhead, which shows that the well water is very deep.

Zuo Dengfeng just glanced at the detour to the north, in front of which is a mountain peak, when avoiding the pursuit, naturally you can't run to a high place, to the south is the village, the best is to the north.

There is dew in the early morning, and the clothes are wet with dew before he has gone far, the morning dew and the rain during the day are yin and yang rootless water, and the yin surname rootless water can relieve the excessive yang energy in his body, and the early morning is the best time to hurry.

At the foot of the mountain to the north side of the peak, Zuo Dengfeng found a land temple in the depths of the woods, the land temple is very small, the height is not more than zhang, the width is not more than six feet, the land temple enshrines a statue of the god of the land lord, the statue is very poorly carved, there is nothing else in the whole land temple except a statue of the god, there is obviously no one here to worship for a long time, the front of the land temple is full of thorns, and a large number of plant vines are attached to the land temple.

It is not uncommon for the land temple to appear in the mountain, if it is someone else, it will definitely be glimpsed, but Zuo Dengfeng stayed in the land temple for a while, because he found that this land temple is built with wood, but what makes him stop is not these hard strange wood, but the construction technique of the land temple, the whole land temple does not even use an iron nail, all of it is the construction technology of digging grooves and tenons, and the building of the mortise and tenon structure is very troublesome to build, and the benefits are very strong, this technique is rarely seen in people's houses, and is generally used in royal buildingsThere must be something strange about building a land temple in this way.

After wandering for a while, Zuo Dengfeng left with Thirteen, and the top priority was not to find a strange place, but to escape as soon as possible.

The north side of the mountain peak is a small road, the left peak does not dare to take the path, can only circle around the mountain peak, at noon came to the east side of the mountain peak, at the foot of the mountain on the east side of the mountain peak is a grass nest, there is a large amount of thatch growing in the grass nest, the thatch is very high and very dense, the summer is the time when the birds and beasts feed the chicks, there are a large number of birds nesting in the thatch, and the cooing is very noisy.

When he arrived here, Zuo Dengfeng didn't dare to go, this piece of grass was hundreds of steps long from east to west, and dozens of zhang away from north to south was the road, at this time he could even see the cultivators passing by from time to time on the path, if he walked east from the grass, he would definitely startle the birds and expose the location.

Zuo Dengfeng pondered for a long time, he could only temporarily take refuge at the edge of the grass at the foot of the mountain, he couldn't go any further, but it was not a long-term solution to dodge, because the carriage was abandoned by him on the west side of the mountain, sooner or later someone would find out, if someone found the carriage, they would be able to determine his approximate location, and the iron shoes would definitely not kill the red-clothed monk, and the red-clothed monk had determined that he had lost his aura cultivation, and he would definitely spread the news, and those who were chasing him naturally knew that a person without aura cultivation would not be able to run far, If you chase him forward for a while, you will definitely turn back, and then it will be a situation of catching a turtle in an urn.

Thinking of this, Zuo Dengfeng shook his head with a wry smile, he had always thought that the mysterious Taoist priest in the secret room would teach him the Qi Method, but the other party did not teach it, and at this time, it became a luxury to even return to his hometown alive.

Zuo Dengfeng sat on the edge of the grass and watched the big birds in the grass bring back food, although he couldn't see the situation of feeding the young birds, but he could imagine what a warm picture it was, there are three things that must be done in life, supporting parents, holding hands with partners, and raising offspring, but these three things have nothing to do with him, he can't send his parents to death, the young man died of his wife, no heirs, and now he can't even die by his lover's side.

Zuo Dengfeng didn't complain about the sky, he didn't complain that God was unfair to him, he was reflecting on whether he had done something wrong, but after thinking about it, he didn't know where he was wrong, and now the only thing that makes him happy is that he killed Fujisaki Masao in the palm of his hand to avenge Wu Xinyu, and now he wants to die, it's not too much of a loss.

The only thing he can do now is to wait, wait for a result, wait for an ending, if God can give him a chance to go home, he will return to Qingshui Temple, if God let him not die well, he doesn't feel wronged, after all, he has killed many people who have sinned and not died.

"Thirteen, you go back to Qingshuiguan and wait for me." After a long time, Zuo Dengfeng turned his head to look at Thirteen, Thirteen was his last concern, Qingshui Guan was protected by a formation, only he and Thirteen could enter and exit freely, although it would be lonely, it was very safe.

Thirteen Wenyan glanced up at him, then lowered his head and continued to lie on the sand beside Zuo Dengfeng, it was not that it didn't understand Zuo Dengfeng's words, but it knew that Zuo Dengfeng had no power to protect himself now, it would not return to Qingshui Temple alone, it wanted to bring Zuo Dengfeng back.

Seeing this, Zuo Dengfeng shook his head and smiled bitterly and didn't force Thirteen to leave, those who were chasing him all boasted of being famous and decent, as long as they caught him, they would definitely not embarrass a brute.

Knowing that there was nowhere to escape, Zuo Dengfeng opened his burden and changed into his tattered robe......
