All Chapters_Chapter 322: Cher's Anomaly
And at this time, Cai Zhongtang also rushed in with the Cai family's men, but they were a step late, and when they came in, they saw the monster that I had killed on the ground and the corpse of Zheng Laoqi.
"Not a zombie?"
Cai Zhongtang muttered to himself, and the light of the flashlight shone on the remains of the monster. It was a skinny human with only skin and bones, less than 1.6 meters small, and bulging bones could be seen under the dry skin.
I pondered in my heart, as Cai Zhongtang said, the real zombies are born of the resentment of heaven and earth, they absorb the qi of yin ghosts and the blood essence of creatures, their bodies are invulnerable, even if there is no food supply, they will never become what they are now.
"Damn, let you kill Zheng Laoqi!"
The Cai family man named Ah Biao stretched out a foot and kicked on the monster corpse, and suddenly there was a metallic sound, and Ah Biao covered his foot and screamed, as if he was kicking on the iron plate.
My eyes sparkled, and I reached out and tapped on the monster's skin, and there was a crunch sound, and its body was like steel. I used the Hope Technique again, and I saw that wisps of corpse qi and resentment were constantly escaping from the corpse of this monster.
"Zombie ...... This thing is a zombie too! A zombie that eats meat and is skinny! ”
I was horrified in my heart, this scene reminded me of what happened to Cai Zhongyong, it was just like the monster in front of me.
I turned around and looked at Cai Zhongtang, and he also thought of it at the moment, and his face couldn't hide the horror.
"Let's go out first, it doesn't smell good."
I wrinkled my nose and said, this stone house has no windows, and the stone door has been closed for thousands of years, the smell inside is very unpleasant. As for the original gas mask, it was taken off as early as when entering the city.
Several of us exited the house one after another, but no one cared about the broken body of Zheng Laoqi who was gnawed, after all, this place was very weird, and the Cai family did not dare to focus on a dead corpse.
"Master, are you alright?" When Longzhu saw me coming out, he immediately took my hand and asked with concern.
I shook my head, but my heart was depressed.
"Sure enough, he is a famous teacher and a high apprentice, and Brother Chen's skills are really extraordinary." Cai Zhongtang gave me a formal look for the first time, and was very surprised that I could slay the monster in a few rounds.
I didn't want to talk to him about these nonsense, so I stretched out my finger and pointed to the stone door on the right side that I had just pushed through a gap, and the monster inside had fallen silent, except for a severed hand under the door that was still lying there quietly.
"If I'm not mistaken, there is such a monster locked in every stone house in this city, and this place is not Qushang City of the Ancient Shu Kingdom at all!" I opened my mouth and said, I was pretty sure that this place was definitely not Qu Shangcheng. Because I suddenly remembered that in the dream that the evil dragon soul in Dujiangyan gave me, I had seen Ruochu take it to an extremely magnificent city. You must know that Ruochu, as the high priest of the ancient Shu Kingdom, will naturally live in the royal city, and the majestic city that is located on the plain and enjoys the blessings of the sun is the real Qushang City!
As I told my guess, everyone's faces changed dramatically, and although they had been prepared in their hearts, they were still terrified when they actually said it.
At this moment, Wang Yifeng, who had not made a sound since the beginning of the shock, said: "I also checked the surroundings just now, except for the countless stone houses arranged in this place and the palace group in the middle, there are no other buildings in this place, and the yin qi is extremely heavy, there is no breath of human existence, I suspect that this place is a cemetery!" ”
Wang Yifeng's words were like a stone falling into the water, splashing a thousand waves.
From the very beginning of the ancient Shu cemetery to the suspected Qu Shangcheng, and now it has changed back to a tomb, all these turns are really dramatic.
"How is that possible! Our Cai family is doing this business, if it is really a cemetery, how can we not see it. Have you ever heard of anyone who would build their graveyard to look like a city, and put such a monster in every stone house? Ah Biao's temper was hot, and he roared out first, which made Wang Yifeng and Liu Zelong frown.
Cai Zhongtang hurriedly said, "Ah Biao, don't talk nonsense. Master Wang is a Taishan-like figure in the cultivation world, how can he talk nonsense. And after Master Wang said this, I also think it is indeed a little similar. In ancient times, every emperor would build a mausoleum for himself at the beginning of his reign, and many would build underground palaces in the same way as they ruled before him. Just like the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, a large number of terracotta warriors and horses are buried underneath, and it is said that the underground palace of the Mausoleum of Qin Huang is also built with various palace pavilions, and even surrounded by mercury. Therefore, the specifications and forms of tombs can be described as ever-changing, and they cannot be measured by common sense. ”
"The reason why we denied that this place was not a tomb was that we had never heard of anyone building their tomb in a cave, and because this place has had a legend of Qu Shangcheng since ancient times. But now I think about it, there are too many doubts, first of all, it is impossible for the capital city of a country to be built underground, and these stone houses and the monsters inside do not look like cities, but more like guards used to guard tombs. Moreover, this ancient Shu country is different from the Central Plains civilization, and no one has ever found the cemetery of the ancient Shu country before, maybe their tomb form at that time was like this, you must know that in the Yunnan-Guichuan area, underground karst caves are very common. ”
Sure enough, it was ginger or the old spicy, after Cai Zhongtang's explanation, everyone couldn't help but agree a little.
However, I didn't care about them at the moment, and kept calling Cher's name in my heart.
If what Cai Zhongtang said is true, this place is a cemetery in the form of a city. That contradicts Cher's previous words. When I was still in Cai's house, it was because Xue'er said that this place was Qu Shangcheng, and the rumored location about Qu Shangcheng was indeed here, that I believed her. Judging from the information she revealed many times, Cher should have been here before, so I was even more convinced of her words.
At this moment, Qu Shangcheng's speculation was directly overturned, so in other words, there were only two possibilities, one was that Xue'er herself was wrong and remembered the wrong place. And the second is that Cher is simply telling a lie!
As time went on, I cried out in my heart, but I didn't get any response, as if she was long gone.
Doubts and horrors grew in my heart, as if I had been deceived by someone I trusted the most. You know, the reason why I'm here is because Xue'er took the initiative to let me come after telling me about Qu Shangcheng!
What is the purpose of her tricking me here!
"Master, what's wrong with you? Everybody's looking at you! ”
I was shaken out of my contemplation by Longzhu, only to find that the others were staring at me without knowing when they had finished speaking.
"Chen Zixuan, why do I feel that something is wrong with you since you came in?" Cai Yawen stared at me with blazing eyes, and her sharp eyes seemed to see through my heart.
"It's nothing, it's just too oppressive here."
I casually passed it perfunctorily, still thinking about Xue'er, and it was really hard to let go.
"If everybody is okay, let's go in the direction of the palace. It should be where the Lord is, and see if anything can be found. Cai Zhongtang proposed, although someone died shortly after he came in, but if everyone is not from the Xuanmen rivers and lakes, or it is a tomb robber family like the Cai family, it is really nothing to die.
The group approached the palace along the stone streets, and on both sides were closed stone houses, and there may be a bloodthirsty monster inside, which made everyone's hearts extremely depressed.
I looked at Wang Yifeng who was walking beside me, and a question suddenly surged in my heart, so I opened my mouth and said, "Master Wang, I don't know if illusion has any effect on those zombies?" ”
Wang Yifeng was stunned for a moment, glanced at me, and said, "Hmph, your kid's problem is quite tricky." Zombies don't have a consciousness of their own, they act on instinct, so the illusions in the hands of ordinary illusion mages have no effect on zombies, and they can completely rely on their breath to lock on. But it's just an ordinary illusion, in the hands of a real illusion master, not only can you conjure illusions, but you can also simulate the smell of breath and even human memories, and you can completely create a virtual world for zombies to fall into......"
