The clouds hung low, and the demonic energy was surging. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Black clouds came from the horizon at such a rapid speed that almost in the blink of an eye, the village was covered in darkness.

After a while, a rickety figure walked in stiffly from outside the village.

With Qin Fen by her side, the kitten girl was not too afraid, blinking a pair of cute big eyes, full of curiosity and asking:

"Eh, why aren't these zombies wearing official uniforms?"

“……”

It's normal not to wear official uniforms!

First of all, it is the official uniform of the Qing Dynasty, this is the Han Dynasty, time is not matched, and the clothes are spun from linen, even if the zombie body is not rotten for some reason, but the clothes will rot!

The kind of migrant worker in front of him, who is in tatters and seems to have been pulled out of the dust, is the real appearance of zombies!

Qin Fen's eyes were empty, and he couldn't help but think of an entertainment post he had read.

Why are the zombies in the zombie movies I have watched since I was a child wearing the official uniforms of the Qing Dynasty? Why can't I wear something else? Moreover, the zombies we saw when we entered this terrifying world were also wearing Qing Dynasty official uniforms, what does this mean?

In fact, this question has troubled many people, such as the generation of young people like me and yours, who are very incomprehensible why the zombies in the movie are wearing Qing Dynasty official uniforms. After someone's in-depth exploration and verification, the following conclusions are drawn.

Zombies were a very popular theme in Hong Kong movies in the 80s of the last century.

In the movie, the zombie is always dressed in the official uniform of the Qing Dynasty, with his hands stretched out, and his feet together like sparrows, jumping and jumping like sparrows, distinguishing the direction by human breath, and another notable feature is that the zombie can be fixed by sticking a talisman on the forehead of the zombie. Because zombies always jump forward, in the feng shui practice of Chinese architecture, a threshold about 15 centimeters high is usually installed under the gate to prevent zombies from jumping into the home.

But why do zombies always wear Qing Dynasty clothes? This can be analyzed from many angles.

First, from an economic point of view: the costumes of the Qing Dynasty were many and cheap. Zombie films are generally low-budget movies, and for cost considerations, the producers let the zombies collectively change into Qing Dynasty clothes, and some Qing court dramas or something. You can also run over to borrow clothes, maybe a courtier in the Qing court drama wore an official uniform and was worn by zombies yesterday.

Second, the time perspective: if you die for less than 100 years, you can't become a sperm, and if you die for more than 500 years, you will become a demon. In other words, the bones are gone, so only those who have died between 100~500 can become zombies.

In this way, only people born in 1600~1900 AD can become zombies, and almost all people born in this time period are Qing Dynasty people. And legend has it that the Qing Dynasty people wore official uniforms when they were buried, which was decent. According to this estimate, the zombies that appear in film and television works a few years later should be wearing a tunic suit, a suit or Nike, with three watches, and using the image of toothpaste recommended by the dental defense team.

Third, from the perspective of national feelings: in the early Qing Dynasty, when the Manchus entered the customs, they killed on a large scale, and many ordinary people died in other places, so there was a job of transporting corpses and transporting the corpses back to their hometowns for burial. Later, it was said that there were corpse chasers in Sichuan and Xiangxi, and the corpses would jump and walk by themselves.

Moreover, the anti-Qing restoration has always been the mainstream ideology in Hong Kong, and many people sympathize with the anti-Qing and Ming-Ming aspirants and belittle the Manchus, so these jumping corpses are installed as Manchu officials.

Moreover, Hong Kong was seized by the British in the hands of the Qing Dynasty, so Hong Kong people have resentment in their hearts, so they ridicule the Qing Dynasty, which is part of Hong Kong culture. As for why the official uniform was chosen, it was because of the people's anti-Qing and anti-corruption performance, which was the imagination and social sustenance of scholars and literati.

Fourth, the perspective of film and television:

The shooting effect of the official uniforms of the Qing Dynasty is more in line with the image of zombies, because the official uniforms of the Qing Dynasty are more straightforward, the color is darker, and the shape of the official hat makes the whole costume different from the Hanfu, which has a depressing and dull taste, so it is most suitable for shooting zombies. If you use the costumes of the Tang Dynasty, Ming Dynasty, and Han Dynasty to shoot, it is not impossible, but because the color of the Hanfu may be lighter and wider, it is not suitable to shoot zombies in Qing official clothes, but there will be an elegant fairy aura in it.

Therefore, when shooting beautiful female ghosts, they generally wear ancient Hanfu, and there are a series of classic female ghosts. Just imagine, let Nie Xiaoqian wear the official uniform of the Qing Dynasty, what kind of effect should it be?

Fifth, from the perspective of folklore:

In the Qing Dynasty, there was a kind of Taoist priest called 'corpse trainer', and they had a spell to guide the corpse's action. There are many people of status and wealth, after death, hoping to return to their roots, and when the body is not decomposed, the warlock will rush back to the hometown for burial, at this time it is necessary to do the corpse disposal, Taoist priests will generally use their craft to make the corpse stiff so that it can walk. Then dress up, and at this time it is also very costly to put on official uniforms for them.

The corpse chasers were called 'corpse chasers', and they walked in groups of about three or five, some tied the corpses with ropes, one every few feet, and then pasted yellow paper charms on their foreheads, and others beat gongs and bells to open the way, and walked day and night. Before dawn, he threw himself into the stack, lifted the rune paper, and the corpse stood against the wall. Continue on the road until night.

There is also a theory that the corpse chaser actually carried the corpse on his back, but because he was dressed in black and walked at night, passers-by naturally did not see the corpse chaser, thinking that there was a walking corpse.

Sixth, from the perspective of literary history:

The zombie theory prevailed after the middle of the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty. On the one hand, the Qing Dynasty had more records of zombie incidents, more research on zombies, and more importantly, literary forms such as novels and readings in the Qing Dynasty rose to a high level. Folk literature will make different explanations for such strange things around you, such as ghosts and monsters, and zombies are one of them.

These things have also been recorded in more books and folklore, and have been used in some of the current films. The Qing Dynasty recorded the most zombies, and Yuan Mei's and Ji Xiaolan's were the first to be recommended. These two books can be said to be the 'Zombie Encyclopedia'. Most of the zombie movies in Hong Kong come from these books, so it is natural that zombies wear Qing Dynasty clothes.

This is a joke that Qin Fen once heard in the tavern, and he just laughed it off at the time, but if he thinks about it carefully, it also makes some sense.

In addition to this, there is a similar vampire origin in the West, and the more reliable explanation is porphyria.

Porphyria is a term used to describe symptoms when heme production in the blood is not normal. Some of these diseases, such as dermatogenetic porphyria, which results in the deposition of toxins on the skin, are often sensitive to light because light activates these toxins in the skin. When toxins are activated, the skin is eroded and disfigured, including erosion of the lips and gums. These factors may contribute to the decaying appearance of a corpse, as well as a fear of sunlight.

And the origin of werewolves is also very simple...... That's right, just what you think, rabies.

After the werewolf transforms, he likes to bite like a mad dog, can you say that he is not a rabies?

"Oh no, how did you get so many zombies?" The villagers were timid and fearful, and soon panicked.

"That is, these zombies are infinitely powerful, they bite people when they catch them, and those who are bitten will also become zombies...... If we can't win, let's stay out of the way. ”

"That's right, as soon as the sun comes out, these zombies won't be able to move......"

Seeing the signs of panic, Qin Fen's eyes were cold, and he immediately said, "Shut up!" ”

"Now the master is fighting the zombie king in the mass grave, if we don't contain these little monsters, we are summoned by the zombie king, and then the master is defeated, and we all have to die one by one!"

"It's okay if you die, what about the children?"

“……”

The crowd fell silent. Even the most honest farmers will never hesitate when it comes to children.

Caring for cubs, this is the nature of all mammals, an instinct written into the genes.

The villagers looked back at the children behind them, and the expressions on their faces quickly became firm.

"Stop them!"

"Fight with them!"

"That's right, the child must not have an accident!"

Morale is an ethereal thing, but it is real, and the winner of two armies of similar strength is often the one with the most momentum.

As the zombies approached, Qin Fen made the first move, and a bag of glutinous rice was smashed out by the goddess.

When these glutinous rice smashed into the zombie's body, a puff of white smoke came out, and the corroded skin and flesh rattled.

As the two handfuls were scattered, a zombie suddenly fell down with nothing in its face, trembling and twitching, obviously unable to get up.

The crowd erupted in cheers, and as long as they broke through their fear and found that these things were not invincible, the villagers' strength would naturally be able to be exerted.

The kitten girl stood beside Qin Fen, throwing glutinous rice balls, and said excitedly:

"It feels like Plants vs. Zombies, the village behind us is the farmer's home, and we are the pea shooters, responsible for sniping zombies here, it's so fun!"

Interesting you uncle!

Your heart is too big!

If you get knocked down by that zombie, you won't be saying anything more about Plants vs. Zombies!

Qin Fen frowned and said, "Although there are many of us, we are really a group of rabble, as long as a zombie breaks through the defense line, then the confidence that has been built up with great difficulty will soon disappear...... You stay here, and I'll go and bring those zombies in. ”

"Huh?"

Before the kitten girl could speak, Qin Fen quickly rushed into the courtyard next to him, caught a two-month-old lamb, cut a wound on the lamb's leg with a knife, and began to attract monsters.

These zombies' eyes are rotten, and it is obvious that they do not rely on sight to find prey, so the chances of smell are quite high.

Sure enough, as the warm sheep blood spilled out, these zombies suddenly went berserk, and at least more than half of them were attracted by the smell of blood and ran behind Qin Fen.

And the direction Qin Fen chose was...... The location of the landlord's old mansion.

It's as simple as that.

"splashy! Actually lured the zombies over! Jia Yuanwai was sweating profusely, and he couldn't wait to pull Qin Fen's skin and bones, but at this time, he couldn't help but scold people.

Others were already sweating profusely to carry glutinous rice, after all, compared to a Qin Fen, this wave of zombies was the real thing.

When the zombie tide finally survived, most of the house was destroyed, and the dying landlord Lao Cai was looking for news of Qin Fen.

However, the end result was that there was no such person.

In a fit of rage, Jia Yuanwai vomited three liters of blood and died violently.
