Mudskipper Foot Chapter 218 Alchemy

How could there be a corpse fraud in the mountains? I don't understand that. Besides, there are very few people living here, and this village is also the only one in Shili Eight Villages. When people die, they can't be buried, so they roll them up on straw mats or other things and put them deep in the mountains.

They rarely use coffins here, and besides, it is not easy to dig pits in the mountains, so they directly removed the coffin. The person was placed directly into the straw mat, and then placed on the deep mountain, waiting for the human body to automatically decay.

If it were in the summer, the corpses would have decayed quickly. However, the rate of decay in winter is quite slow, but we are very suspicious of what caused the corpse transformation.

After we reached the deep mountain, under the leadership of the second master, we came to put the second. Next to the body of my grandmother's sister. But from a distance, there was only a straw mat left, but the body was gone.

There are a lot of bones in the vicinity, scattered and scattered, and after so many years, these bones have long been unknown who is who.

"Really cheated the corpse?" I looked at the second master and asked incomprehensibly.

"As you can imagine, the body is gone."

We searched the neighborhood, but we couldn't find the body.

Xiao San Fat looked at it with his heart and said, "There is qi flowing in front of you." ”

"Let's go over and have a look."

We followed the guidance of Xiao Sanpang to the deeper mountain forest, and a Shandong appeared in front of us, and we stopped. But Xiao Sanpang pointed to Shandong and said: "Qi comes from here." ”

"Everyone, be careful, let's go in and have a look." The second master said and took the lead and walked in.

At first, it was dark inside, but the further you went, the brighter it became. We stopped, found a rock to cover up, and looked inside.

I saw an old man dressed in tatters and with messy hair holding a book in his hand. And in front of him, a large vat was erected, and a fire was lit on the side, and it was burning.

The old man was a little emaciated and couldn't see his true face clearly, but it could be seen from his withered arms that he was estimated not to even weigh ninety pounds. Behind him, however, there were many long black wooden boxes, where they were all erected, and on the other side there was a shelf full of things.

In the vat in front of him, there were some bubbles coming out from time to time, and the old man also looked at the things in the book from time to time, and then took the things on the shelves that seemed to be some kind of herbs, and sprinkled them into the jar.

"Alchemy?"

The second master looked at it and suddenly said in a low voice.

Xiao San and I were stunned and asked, "What is alchemy?" ”

The second master explained: "Alchemy is a very dangerous forbidden technique, which is to use the dead corpse and soak it in a medicine tank for seven seven or forty-nine days. As long as the corpse is refined into bronze, it is considered a success. But this kind of corpse will obey his orders, and it is more difficult to deal with than a ghost. ”

"What? Then we'll have to stop him. As I spoke, I was about to get on with a hoe, but I was pulled back by the second master.

"Don't act rashly yet, let's take a look first." The second master said. "It stands to reason that this technique has been inherited for a long time, could it be him?"

"Who is he?"

"A scum of a sect can also be said to be the scum of the entire sect, a guy that everyone wants to get and be punished."

As soon as the second master mentioned this person, he hated the root of his teeth, and I couldn't help but sweat.

"Even before I went up the mountain to learn the Tao, I already knew the name like thunder. I heard that he just wanted to get the alchemy of corpses, stole the secret arts, and also trespassed on the forbidden land. They all thought that he had died in the forbidden land, but they didn't expect to escape and come here. ”

"This person, is it Zhen Tianya?"

"You know that, too?" The second master looked at the little third fat and asked.

"Hmm." Xiao Sanpang nodded and said, "I was looking at the master's computer that day, and I saw that there was a group chat group of thought in his chat tool, so I clicked in." But as soon as I entered, I saw someone attach a sudden and name, saying that this person is the scum of our industry, and if we find him, we must eradicate him. ”

"Just now, I always thought that this person was so familiar, but when I think back to Zhen Tianya, I don't feel like it, after all, he is not so thin. But as soon as I heard you, I was a little confirmed. ”

"It's indeed Zhen Tianya, the bastard, who killed his master and stole the secret art. It stands to reason that he is also my uncle, but now I have to eliminate the harm for the door. After the second master finished speaking, he walked out directly.

With our appearance, Zhen Tianya suddenly jumped blind. Putting the book aside, he then looked at the three of us with his hand by his hair, and grinned, "Senior nephew, you are finally here." ”

"How did you know I was coming?" The second master looked at Zhen Tianya suspiciously and asked.

"Hehe, of course I asked your wife to call you. I heard you're from our sect..."

"Phew, who is in the same sect as you, you pig and dog are not as good as a brute. Don't confuse me with you, you're not worthy. ”

"Oh, could it be that Pure Yang handed over this to you? Seeing that Uncle Shi didn't pay respects, he still dared to deceive his teacher and destroy his ancestors? Zhen Tianya said cheekily.

"It's you who deceive the master and destroy the ancestors, steal the sect's forbidden arts, and secretly study alchemy here. Say, "What is the matter with me?" The second master looked at him and asked.

"It's nothing, after all, our uncle and nephew haven't seen each other for a long time, so how about sitting down and chatting? Alas, those two little dolls next to you are good, your apprentice? ”

"I wiped it, only to find out about our existence?" I'm a little unhappy in my heart, such a big two living people standing here, can't I see it?

"Today I will slaughter you and kill the door." The second master said, and rushed forward directly.

"Don't, don't." Zhen Tianya stopped my second master and said, "Don't you want to see the next performance?" It's almost the New Year, so I specially brought you a show. ”

"Hmph, what kind of tricks do you want to play?" The second master snorted coldly.

"There are three of you, one of me, what tricks can I play?" Zhen Tianya smiled and took a few steps back.

I watched as his hands moved quickly a few times, and his mouth seemed to say something I didn't understand, and then the four black wooden boxes next to him exploded with a bang. I saw it clearly, dead people shaped like dried corpses walked out of it, stood in front of Zhen Tianya, and faced us.

The second master said that if the corpse is refined into bronze, then it means that it has been successful. But the four dried corpses in front of us turned out to be bronze, which means that this Zhen Tianya was actually refined into four.

"Come on, kids, let them see your show." Zhen Tianya stood behind and opened his hands and smiled.

The four dead men, shaped like dried corpses, walked towards us. The gaze is glazed and the movement is very mechanical, much like a robot, or even inferior to a robot. Looking at their bodies, it feels like they could fall down on their own at any moment.

Xiao Sanpang immediately took out the rune paper, but the second master on the side said: "The rune paper is useless, don't take it lightly, and don't let those dead corpses touch you, otherwise your skin will fester." ”

Xiao Sanpang and I nodded, it seems that this time it is more auspicious and less auspicious. After all, there were three of us, and we were faced with four bronze corpses. They don't know tiredness, they don't know pain, but we all know it.

"Ah~" I shouted, and with all my strength, I rushed forward with the hoe in my hand. He concentrated all his strength on his hands and slapped it firmly on the corpse at the very edge.

But something unexpected happened, the body didn't fall because of it, its body just shook a little. Then the hoe in my hand was broken, and the dead body had nothing to do.

"How so?" Just as I was surprised, I saw the corpse raise its head and wave at me, very fast. And I was still in a state of surprise and couldn't dodge it at all.

But just when I thought I was going to die in the hands of a dead corpse, I didn't know whose hand it was behind me, so he dragged me back. Only then did he dangerously avoid the attack of the dead corpse, it turned out that it was really as the second master said, these dead corpses were so powerful that they were difficult to deal with.

"Don't rush up, you want to die?" The second master glanced at me, but I didn't speak.

But he saw that he threw the shovel aside, and he seemed to know that this thing was useless against these dead corpses.
