Chapter 157: The Corpse Chasing Family
The small door opened, and a scorched smell came from inside.
Alert, I quickly retreated to the rear until I was at a safe distance before looking towards the small door.
Those scorched yellow breaths are exactly what Qiu Sanye said about corpse qi, it is difficult for ordinary people to find out, only those who have practiced qigong can see it, when I treated Sun Tiebing, what was sucked out of his body was corpse qi.
The corpse qi is generally dark yellow, and the darker the color, the heavier the corpse qi.
I opened the black coffin, took out the broken token from it, and put it in front of the small door, and the corpse qi inside the small door began to converge towards the token, and was slowly absorbed by the token.
Since the corpse qi was relatively heavy and could not be absorbed in a short period of time, I looked at Zhong Daochang and asked, "Old Zhong, where did you get this token?" ”
Zhong Daochang looked at the broken token and said in surprise: "This, this is my broken iron card?" ”
Zhong Daochang's expression was shocked, with an incredible look, seeing his expression, I knew that it was useless to ask, if Zhong Daochang knew the magic of this token, he would not have gambled on it.
Sure enough, Zhong Daochang stared at the token on the ground, and said regretfully: "I lost the bet to you at the time, so I thought about disgusting you, except for the secret method of the sleeve whip, the rest are some broken copper and iron." ”
I rolled my eyes, this is really not a fucking thing, but then again, fortunately Zhong Daochang is not literate, otherwise the token would not have been in my hands.
Zhong Daochang was a little greedy, and said, "Master Zhao, this token is a rag, otherwise you can return it to me, how about it?" ”
"You're stupid to me." I said angrily: "This thing will be ruined if you give it to you, if you didn't give it to me, I'm afraid it would have been thrown away a long time ago." ”
After the corpse qi was absorbed, I ignored Zhong Daochang, picked up the token, put it back in the black coffin, and walked towards the small door.
The small door is one meter long and one meter wide, and I can only crawl in, I looked behind me and asked Feng Chao to hand me a flashlight, and I took the flashlight and crawled behind the door.
As soon as I entered the small door, I smelled the smell of rot, I climbed out two meters away, the space in front of me slowly became larger, I straightened up, took the flashlight and looked around, and the scene I saw made me tremble, and the flashlight almost fell to the ground.
Around me, there were dozens of corpses, dressed in various styles of Taoist robes, with burnt yellow faces and wide eyes, in the dark space, illuminated by the light of a flashlight, which could scare people to death, especially those grinning corpses, at first glance, they thought they were smiling at me.
I panicked and took a few steps back.
There was a sound behind him, and he saw Zhong Daochang crawling in, Zhong Daochang straightened up, and complained: "I'm suffocated to death, it's like a dog's hole." ”
Zhong Daochang shone a flashlight on me, revealing a surprised look, "Master Zhao, your face is wrong, you can't be scared, right?" ”
"See for yourself."
I made way for Chief Chung Dao without explaining to him, and in this dark place, I suddenly saw dozens of corpses, and I was able to bear it without being scared.
Zhong Daochang stepped forward suspiciously, took the flashlight to shine it, and after seeing the corpses, he let out a miserable scream, his legs were directly weak, and he collapsed on the ground without fighting, and he trembled vigorously, but the flashlight was not steady, and he fell to the ground, making a few dangling sounds, and fell next to the corpse of the tooth.
The flashlight was smashed and malfunctioned, flashing and flashing, just shining on the grinning corpse, the light was bright and dark, and the grinning corpse seemed to be alive, which scared Zhong Daochang.
Zhong Daochang didn't move, but I was startled, and I was relieved to find that he had fainted, this fucking said I was scared just now, but I didn't expect this grandson to be more timid.
Qiu Sanye and the others heard Zhong Daochang's shout, so they asked about the situation in the back, I explained it briefly, so that they were prepared, and when everyone came over, they saw the corpses all over the ground, and their faces became ugly, especially Shen Yun and Su Qing, who both screamed.
If I hadn't told them in advance, I might have fainted.
Qiu Sanye and the others came over, the light of the flashlight was much more sufficient, and the corpses on the ground were all wearing Taoist robes, they should be those ghost exorcism masters, no wonder they disappeared mysteriously, it turned out that they were all brought here by ghost babies.
I woke up Zhong Daochang, this guy was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he was still trembling, and he didn't dare to look at those corpses anymore, I asked Feng Chao to support him, picked up the flashlight on the ground, and explored the way.
There are a large number of wounds on the corpse, most of which are tooth marks, all of which were bitten to death by the ghost baby, the strength of the ghost baby is strong, Shen Yun asked these people to exorcise the ghost, it is simply to send them to death.
Leaving the corpse's location, a secret room appears in front of it.
The design of the secret room is similar to that of the room, the tables and chairs are complete, but in the position of the bed, instead of a bed, a red coffin is placed, and the surface of the coffin is painted with a pattern, which is a black bell.
When I saw this bell pattern, the whole person was shocked in place, because this black bell was the mysterious soul bell, and it was exactly the same as the birthmark on Feng Chao's arm.
Feng Chao told me that he helped me go to the province to send money, and when I met a group of strange people, I kowtowed to Feng Chao when we met, saying that Feng Chao was the bloodline of their family, and asked Feng Chao to go back to fight for the inheritance of the head of the family, and then Feng Chao was unwilling, so he fed Feng Chao blood, saying that it was to activate the bloodline, and then a birthmark grew on the arm, which was exactly the same as the soul bell.
The first time I saw the dementor bell, it was a magic weapon in my uncle's hand, and my mother told me that it was something from the corpse family, and now there is a soul bell painted on the outside of the red coffin, maybe this coffin has something to do with the corpse family.
I called Feng Chao over, after he saw the pattern on the coffin, the whole person was a little stupid, he rolled his arm away, revealing the bell-shaped birthmark, and after comparing it with the pattern on the coffin, Feng Chao scolded: ", do you want to be so coincidental?" ”
Qiu Sanye was well-informed, stared at the red coffin and said, "This is the soul bell, which is the symbol of the corpse chasing family. ”
Driving out corpses, also known as moving souls.
In ancient times, the concept of returning to the roots of fallen leaves was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, many merchants and wanderers died in other places, and the transportation was particularly inconvenient at that time, so in order to let the deceased go to their hometown for burial, the industry of driving corpses arose.
Later, due to natural disasters such as drought and flood, as well as the impact of war, the number of deaths increased dramatically, forming people who made a living by chasing corpses, and people who lived in destitute even built houses in the wild, which is commonly known as the corpse inn, and there were more and more corpse chasers, and it was inevitable that there would be a scramble for business, and over time a fixed organization was formed, which was the prototype of the corpse family, and after decades of development, a real corpse family was formed.
With the passage of time, the industry of chasing corpses has gradually declined, and the corpse chasing family exists in name only, but they are the same as the tomb robber family, because they have an ancient heritage, and now they have formed a unique family sect, although they do not often appear in society, but the spells of their sects are quite powerful.
……
Qiu Sanye stared at the birthmark on Feng Chao's arm, revealing a shocked look, and said in a lost voice: "How can you have this birthmark?" ”
Hearing Qiu Sanye's words, Feng Chao hurriedly asked, "Third Master, is there anything wrong with this birthmark?" ”
Qiu Sanye frowned, shook his head and said: "I don't know very well, but this birthmark must be related to the corpse family, and it is also the most core personnel, because the management system of the corpse family is stricter than that of the tomb robber family, which is divided into descendant bloodline, collateral bloodline and idle bloodline, this is an internal matter of the corpse family, and I don't know much." ”
Qiu Sanye asked Feng Chao to put down his sleeves, and said again: "Your birthmark, it's best not to let outsiders see it, if you encounter the enemy of the corpse chasing family, I'm afraid you will be retaliated." ”
Feng Chao's face suddenly became bitter, and he scolded: "Fuck it, Lao Tzu is recruiting someone to provoke someone, my birthmark was forced by someone else to make it, it's all those damn guys, Zimu, if you meet it, you have to clean them up for me." ”
I patted Feng Chao on the shoulder, expressing deep sympathy for his plight, whether he is related to the corpse family or not, he is my most iron brother, if he is in danger, I will definitely not stand idly by.
The matter of the corpse family still needs to be considered in the long run, and the most important thing now is to open the red coffin, this secret room is a little special in the coffin, maybe there is a big secret.
