Chapter 49: Mercury Shrouds
Around, there was no air flowing, but Zhao Zhu felt that there was a cool breeze constantly hitting his body.
The coolness soaked through the skin and froze deep into the bones.
And the scholar in front of him, who was originally sitting, also slowly stood up at this time, his body looked very stiff, but there was a terrible rhythm, which was a very peculiar feeling.
is obviously a zombie, but there is still a kind of personable bookish atmosphere, Zhao Zhu at this time is more and more convinced that this guy in front of him should be Nalan Xingde before his death, it is estimated that only the famous Manchu Qing Dynasty in history can still show this kind of suave grace after the death of the corpse, but unfortunately, zombies are zombies after all, and the young girl singer of Huaichun in that era estimated that when she saw him like this, she didn't have the slightest intention of recommending herself to the pillow.
Nalan Xingde stood up, his cold eyes stared at Zhao Zhu's eyes, and the wind around him seemed to blow more rapidly, blowing Zhao Zhu's heart to feel hairy, and his courage seemed to be blown away a little bit, because Zhao Zhu found that he was almost afraid to look at those eyes. The resentment on the other party is too heavy, so heavy that it can suppress the emotions of everyone nearby, making people lose their minds and even collapse under this hysterical resentment!
Nalan Xingde raised an arm and reached out to Zhao Zhu, his speed was not very fast, he walked slowly step by step, yes, his way of walking was different from the zombies that Zhao Zhu had seen before, he was not jumping and walking, but he could take steps like a normal person, but he looked stiffer than a normal person.
Thankfully, when that hand almost pinched Zhao Zhu's neck, Zhao Zhu's heart was shocked, and he finally came to his senses, and at the same time leaned back and quickly retreated with his feet.
As if realizing that this grasp could not be successful, Nalan Xingde's claws turned into a punch and hit Zhao Zhu directly in the chest, and Zhao Zhu's whole person was knocked out, hit the wall and then fell down.
"Poof...... Poof......"
Zhao Zhu, who was sitting on the ground, vomited two mouthfuls of blood, but he didn't feel much uncomfortable, but he felt a lot more relaxed, and then looked at the blood he just spit out was black and thick, that is, bruising, it seems that Nalan Xingde was also crooked, helping himself to invigorate blood and remove stasis once, and too many injuries he had experienced before left a lot of bruises in his body.
However, Zhao Zhu also knew that it was unknown whether it would be such a good thing next time, and he was facing a zombie instead of a physiotherapist.
Nalan Xingde walked towards Zhao Zhu again, the speed was still very slow, but the kind of pressure emanating from his body was still breathtaking, Zhao Zhu gritted his teeth and stood up, and easily pulled out the knife from a guard on the side, although Zhao Zhu himself didn't believe that he could use this knife to cause any threat and damage to the zombies in front of him, but at least one weapon in his hand could always make him feel a lot more at ease.
"Buzz!"
Only hearing the sound of the cloth vibrating, Zhao Zhu subconsciously squatted.
"Smack!"
Nalan Xingde's palm slapped directly on the wall behind Zhao Zhu, and the extremely hard wall was slapped with a white palm mark, which shows the power of this palm, it is estimated that even a cow will be directly slapped to death here.
Seeing this, Zhao Zhu immediately turned the knife sideways, and the handle of the knife was pressed under Nalan Xingde's armpit, and then he raised his leg and kicked him violently in the lower abdomen.
Nalan Xingde wanted to bounce up several times, but his body was half lifted and was pressed down by Zhao Zhu.
Zhao Zhu's face was tense at this time, and he clenched his teeth, this looked even more hideous than Nalan Xingde below, Zhao Zhu couldn't think of how the strength in his body suddenly became bigger now, he just knew that he had to press this thing down, and he would never be given freedom.
Nalan Xingde's physical strength is definitely beyond Zhao Zhu's, but his body is too stiff, and Zhao Zhu grasped the point of borrowing, and at this time, he suddenly fell into the disadvantage and was completely suppressed by Zhao Zhu.
Rune Paper...... Rune paper. ”
Zhao Zhu shouted in his mouth, but then he realized that his backpack was lost, and some of the remaining runes and equipment were estimated to be sinking to the bottom of the water at this time, and he really didn't have the means to deal with this zombie at the moment.
At this time, Zhao Zhu was really anxious and wanted to scold his mother, he couldn't keep spending it with this zombie like this, if it was the living Nalan Xingde who drank tea with him and bragged about it, it would be good, but this was a zombie in front of him, who could have nothing to do and go to the wind and snow with the zombie?
"No, why are you infused with mercury, you can still be a corpse, the other guards are all dead, I didn't have a fart reaction when I walked over, they were also poured with mercury!"
At this time, Zhao Zhu discovered the difference between the zombie under him, and looking at the color of the skin on his body and the changes in the stiffness of his body, he could know that he also had a large amount of mercury in his body.
"Oh...... I understand, they are all corpses that were treated and poured with mercury embalming after death, you were poured with mercury when you were alive,, this method is really ruthless, no wonder even you, the first genius of the Manchu Dynasty, have to cheat the corpse, and everyone has to die without turning a blind eye. ”
The reason why Zhao Zhu was able to think of the crux of the problem so quickly was also because he had heard something from Xiong Zhiqi, which was a mission world that Xiong Zhiqi had experienced, and it was also related to the tomb, but the tomb was in the ancient country of Loulan, and its mystery was not much worse than the Manchu dragon vein where Zhao Zhu was now.
Xiong Zhiqi also encountered zombies who had been transformed into corpses, and after their team spent a lot of effort to solve those zombies, they saw some information on the mural about how these zombies were "pious baptism" process, that is, when they were still alive, they peeled off their scalps and infused their bodies with mercury, and at the same time assisted by various herbs and life-sustaining things so that they could not die before the mercury was infused, and after the mercury was infused into the body, the body was further processed. And ask a Taoist or Buddhist master to perform the soul sealing ceremony to ensure that the soul is suppressed in this body forever, and only after that, can it really be allowed to die.
Mercury poured into one's body, which was a more painful punishment than a thousand slashes and executions, it was truly worse than death, but after the soul was sealed forever in the body that had caused him great pain.
Nalan Xingde, the first genius of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in history, did not expect to fall to this fate, is it because the emperor wanted to take him to the ancestors in the mausoleum to boast about the progress of Manchu culture under his rule, so that the ancestors could see the great talents of the Manchus, so not only is it not enough to let Nalan Xingde be martyred, but also to make it like this, let him always "live" like this, let him accompany himself, accompany his ancestors to continue to chant poems?
For Nalan Xingde's encounter, Zhao Zhu didn't have any sighs and sympathies, he remembered that Xiong Zhiqi said that the life gate of this mercury corpse was actually in the position of his scalp, find the place where the first opening was filled with mercury, and use a knife to break it, breaking the resentment in its body, this zombie is almost explained, if it is not broken, this thing is basically invulnerable, and ordinary rune paper can't stop him at all.
"Scalp, scalp, scalp!"
Zhao Zhu continued to press Nalan Xingde with one hand, and at the same time his upper body also leaned up, because he had to let himself hold a saber in his other hand to find the position of Nalan Xingde's scalp, and it was also because of the loss of one hand to suppress Nalan Xingde, which made Nalan Xingde gradually regain his decline, as if he might get up at any time.
At this moment, Zhao Zhu's face is less than half a decimeter away from Nalan Xingde's face, and the teeth in Nalan Xingde's mouth have also turned silver, it seems that it is also because his body is full of mercury, but he has no bad breath, but he keeps stretching out his head to bite Zhao Zhu, and Zhao Zhu may be bitten off a piece of meat from his face if he is not careful at this time.
……
ps: Nalan Xingde, the word Rongruo, can be called Nalan Xingde, or it can be called Nalan Rongruo.
