Chapter 5 Burying
When I pulled the wound open, I saw that it was full of crimson silk threads, and a heart was tightly wound. After concentrating, the knife fell in his hand, cut off the sticky silk thread, took the heart out, still slowly wriggled in his hand, cut it open, and crawled out of it with two sharp worms, the thickness of his fingers, as soon as he entered the ground, he was about to drill into the ground, and was burned by the disciples on the side with a talisman fire.
At first glance, this thing looks a bit like the corpse worm that the old camel used to raise, but when you think about it, it's completely different. I couldn't see what the hell this was for a while, so I heard Lu Xia exclaim in surprise, and saw the strange corpse that had been taken out of its heart, and the color of its skin and flesh quickly changed from blue black to jet black, as if it was burnt, emitting a sour and rancid smell.
At that moment, Lu Xia assigned a disciple to go over and carry another strange corpse over. The three of them worked together to shatter the hearts of the monster corpses with the magic seal, and then sacrificed the talisman and burned the three corpses to ashes with pure yang fire.
After that, he and the three of them continued to search the area, but they never encountered this kind of ghost thing again. Listening to Lu Xia, Liu Zining and Chen Lin took a group of disciples to the Xishan side. I followed them for a few days, then said goodbye to them and moved on to other places.
Along the way, they avoided populated towns and went out into the wilderness. On this night, passing by a suburb of Jinshankou, I walked for a while, and saw a few birds and finches suddenly fly out of the dense forest in front of me, scattering in all directions, as if I was frightened by some kind of fright.
As soon as his heart moved, he immediately hid his body and swept silently towards the forest. After sneaking in the forest for a while, he suddenly stopped his body and froze. A moment later, I saw a figure flashing in front of me, passing through the forest. Although it was a hurried glance, his strange posture was clear, and he immediately followed.
The man was running fast in the woods, stopping from time to time and standing there, head held high, turning slowly, as if to discern directions. I watched from the sidelines, and I didn't bother him. After a while, I saw him chasing in one direction and speeding over, his steps twisting, very strange.
Along the way, he ran into the mountains, and the woods he passed through often startled a group of night birds and scattered with a bang. I stayed behind him until the middle of the night, when I saw the man stop in a valley. I glanced at it, and saw that the trees around me were densely packed, covering the sky and the sun, and the ground had accumulated thick dead branches and rotten leaves, which was obviously inaccessible.
But in the valley there was a small area, bare and without vegetation. The man froze in place, his head turning from side to side, and after a while, he landed on the ground with his hands and began to dig up the dead branches and leaves on the ground.
The thick rotten leaves were dug up, and then the earth began to be dug up with great speed, and soon half of the body was burrowed, leaving only the feet exposed.
I looked strange, but I didn't move, watching the changes. After a while, the man was completely out of sight, and had apparently gone underground. It's just that the soil layer above is still moving slightly, and it doesn't make a sound of asking.
I pondered for a while, but I still couldn't help but move, so I simply sat down on the spot and closed my eyes to recuperate. And so he kept watch for a day and a night, and when he saw that the thing had never crawled out again, he came out of his hiding place and stepped forward. I saw that the soil in that place had been covered again, and if I hadn't paid attention before, it would have been difficult to see anything unusual in this place.
Squatting down and observing for a while, he reached out and grabbed a handful of soil and took a few looks, and he could see that this small piece of land, the yin qi was extremely strong, although it was not as good as the Yin Pool or the corpse accumulation ground, but compared to the surrounding Yang land, it was far better, no wonder there was no grass in this place.
He no longer hesitated, and immediately started to peel off the soil layer. After digging down to a depth of more than three meters, I saw that half of my head was exposed in the soil, and immediately a slower charm was struck, and then I accelerated my speed and dug people out. Seeing that this person was quite young, probably in his twenties, the skin on his body was blue-black, the skin and flesh were shriveled, the eyes were gray, and the corners of his mouth were faintly showing two sharp fangs.
Sure enough, it's that kind of strange corpse.
It's just that his posture at this time is extremely strange, standing upright in the soil, his mouth open, his head up, his palms curled up, and he holds it up towards the sky. What's even more strange is that the man's chest slowly rises and falls, as if he is breathing.
This is a yin corpse, not a living person, where does the breath come from? This exhalation and inhalation can only be absorbing the qi of the earth's yin.
The more I looked, the more strange I became, and I was about to check again to see if there were any other oddities in him, when I found something around his waist. It's a talisman. Take out the talisman inside and look at it, it looks like a Maoshan disciple. I couldn't help but be taken aback.
After a closer look at his body, he found some wounds of different shades, like scratches from something during a fight. But none of these are fatal wounds.
If I looked further, I didn't find any other clues. Immediately, he cut the chest of this Maoshan disciple with a knife, cut his heart, and saw that the long worm bit each other at both ends, coiling into a ring. I looked at it strangely, but after looking at it for a while, I couldn't figure out what it was. In the end, he could only destroy the corpses of the insect and the disciples of Maoshan.
Sitting on the sidelines thinking about it, my scalp was numb, and I felt uneasy in my heart. These strange corpses are really strange, so quietly sneaking into the deep mountains, hibernation to absorb yin qi, I don't know how much is hidden in the dark. Although it seems to be harmless for the time being, what if this thing suddenly changes its nature one day?
What would be the consequences of so many strange corpses suddenly emerging from the wilderness?
Looking up at the dim sky, I saw the dark clouds pressing on the top, and my heart was heavy, and I only felt the illusion that the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was full of buildings. Originally, I thought that the tomb of the Xuannu would be towned, and everyone could live a comfortable life, but it seemed that God didn't want the beauty of adults.
After sitting there for a while, he returned the way he came, and when he reached the edge of the woods, he heard the sound of Sisuo's footsteps in front of him.
I looked at the sky, it was already past midnight, and I didn't know who would come to this wilderness, and listening to the sounds, it seemed that there were still a lot of people coming. Curiosity arises, and it is hidden to the side.
After a while, I saw a group of people appear in the field of vision. When I looked closely, it was a funeral procession. There were about dozens of people, dressed in sackcloth, and the two in front of them carried spirit flags.
Looking further into the middle, I saw that there were as many as five coffins carried, and the direction of the arrangement was very peculiar. One coffin is in the middle, and the other four are divided into two wings, forming a "human" shape.
The mourners kept their mouths closed, just moving forward with their heads bored, silent, only the sound of footsteps came one after another.
I only looked at it for a moment, and I was a little confused. Generally speaking, it is unlikely that someone will be buried in the middle of the night, because the yang energy is weak at night, the yin energy is deep, and it is easy to make trouble. But this is nothing, what I care about the most is the five coffins, which are placed in a "human" array, which is what we often call the "human" coffin in the industry.
On both sides of the coffin, there were two young men with strong blood, which was used as a coffin protector, and they wanted to use their yang energy to restrain the yin and evil qi in the coffin.
Those who can put on this kind of posture should be veterans in our industry.
As he pondered, he heard a bang, and the sound came from one of the open coffins. Immediately, someone exclaimed, and their voices were full of fear. The funeral procession was immediately in chaos.
I saw an old man rushing out of front and shouting at the back: "Don't panic, the coffin must not touch the ground!" ”
As soon as he spoke, the team immediately calmed down. But after a while, I heard the sound of "dong dong" keep coming, and the sound kept ringing. I took a few looks, and I knew that it was supposed to be a corpse.
For my line of work, corpse fraud is extremely common, and it's no surprise. Hearing the sound of Kala, the coffin at the front shook suddenly, and the coffin lid actually collapsed out.
When the four people who carried the coffin saw it, they were immediately so frightened that they didn't care about anything, threw the coffin down with a bang, and fled back in fright. The funeral procession was in chaos.
I had to come out of the shadows and go forward, and when I saw a figure sit up from the coffin, my body swayed, and I rushed forward and slapped a corpse charm on the man's head.
At a glance, this is just an ordinary corpse, and the corpse suppression charm is enough. Immediately, his body shook slightly, and he took a picture on the top of the coffin. The coffin with a thud fell silent in an instant.
