233.Chapter 233: The Corpse Inn

The poison of snakes is naturally not as powerful as the venom of corpses. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the past few days, I have not used the gluttonous eye to transform yin qi, and I have lived a life like a normal zombie in the day and night, so my body has gradually grown corpse poison.

As soon as the teeth of these two snakes bit through my skin, the venom of the corpse immediately spread through the snake's mouth, and after seeing the snake squirm twice, it was limp and motionless.

I picked up the snake with a bamboo cane in my hand, and decided to wait until the front point to find a place, build a fire, and roast it to eat.

At this time, Li Bei'er, who was following me, reminded me: "Jiang Xiaosi, be careful, there may be movement ahead, I smell a heavy ghost." ”

Ghostly?

I replied with a smile, "I'm not in a very good mood during this time, and if there really is a ghost with no eyes who wants to come to me for trouble, I don't mind eating it." ”

After receiving the inheritance of the White Bone Lady, I have generally understood the uniqueness of the heart corpse: instinct is "eating qi".

People have "essence, qi, and spirit", while ghosts have no form and no substance, and there are only two kinds of "qi" and "god", "qi" is ghost qi, and "god" is soul.

The heart corpse feeds on qi and can devour ghost qi.

Ghost energy is the power that supports the action of the "ghost", once it is sucked, although the ghost will not die, but a gust of wind, or a ray of light, can make it go up in smoke, and it is basically not far from death.

This characteristic is somewhat similar to the gluttonous eye on my body, but I don't know if there is an inevitable connection between the two.

The person who is most likely to know about the gluttonous eye and the secrets of my body should be Hua Manlou.

When I have time, I'll be sure to ask him about it.

As I thought so, I walked around a hillside and saw a log cabin appear in front of me.

The wooden house was a little dilapidated, with a lone black lantern hanging at the door, and the wooden door was empty, and the fire was faintly shining inside.

Someone is inside.

This is not the point, the point is that on the wooden house, there is actually a horizontal plaque with four big black characters written on the plaque: Corpse Inn!

This is?

When chasing corpses, because corpses can only walk at night and rest during the day, it is contrary to the living habits of normal people, and they control zombies, and ordinary people are in awe of them, so they take more mountain paths and have their own unique roads.

Over time, all year round, all the corpse chasers tried their best to walk the same way, so that they could take care of each other.

This forms a unique "road to the corpse".

As a result, something called the "Corpse Lodge" was created, which was built on the road to the corpse and was specially designed for the corpse chaser to rest on the way to the corpse.

This kind of inn is either in the downtown area or in the mountains, and hangs a black lantern without fire, which is directly written to prevent the living from inadvertently breaking in.

It's just that this kind of corpse inn shouldn't have ceased to exist a long time ago?

After all, in today's society, all kinds of transportation conditions are very convenient, even if there are corpse chasers, it is the same as Zhang Xiaofei, using spells to make a living, rather than really helping people drive corpses.

The road is extremely remote, and from last night's walk to this day, this is the only room I've ever seen.

It's about five o'clock in the morning, and in about two hours, the sky will be bright.

I wondered: Why don't you go into this corpse inn?

It's really a corpse inn, then it doesn't hurt if I spend the night, if not, it's a big deal for me to find a new place.

Thinking about it, I walked up to the hut and reached out and knocked on it.

With a strain of my arm, the door creaked and opened.

In the house, there is a fire lit, which is supposed to be the source of light seen outside.

By the fire, a man and a woman, old and young, sat on the side.

An old man with a white beard and a tunic with a little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old with two pigtails and a floral jacket.

In the deeper part of the room, a man curled up, unable to see his face.

As soon as I pushed the door, all three of them turned their heads at the same time.

I was taken aback.

This old man and young man are just fine, it looks like they are grandparents and grandchildren, and there is a small bamboo basket next to it, which seems to be a medicine picker, or a ginseng picker.

When I was in the 100,000 mountains, I saw ginseng pickers, this industry is highly dangerous and high-reward, and there is no shortage of practitioners.

But the curled man is a little abnormal.

It was an old lady with a pointed face, yellowed pupils, and even a layer of light hair on her face.

The three of them glanced at me at the same time, probably seeing that I was dressed strangely and carrying a large wooden box behind my back, but they didn't ask me anything.

Perhaps, they mistakenly think that I am also in this business.

I lifted my hood and nodded to the three of them: "I'm passing by, take a break, borrow a fire." ”

The old man coughed and replied, "The corpse inn has no owner, please take care of yourself." ”

I see.

It means that the corpse inn back then is now abandoned because of the corpse industry, but it has become the foothold of these ginseng pickers who eat and sleep in the open?

I walked in, put the golden silk nan wooden coffin behind me on the ground, and then took out a knife from my waist, took the two snakes, cut off the snake's head and tail, and sat down by the fire to roast the snake meat.

The human world is accustomed to life, even if the conditions are hard, I will not do the business of drinking blood, so when I passed by a village a few days ago, I specially bought some salt, pepper and other condiments, and changed to a knife.

Seeing me roasting snake meat, the little girl frowned on the side and wanted to say something, but was glared at by the old man next to her and didn't continue.

Seeing that it was medium-rare, I sprinkled some salt and pepper and stuffed it directly into my mouth.

At this time, smelling the fragrance of snake meat, the old woman with a cat face next to me suddenly let out a cat's call, struggled for a while, and stared at the snake meat in my hand in a daze!

As soon as she moved, a "clanging" sound sounded on her body.

Then I realized that the old woman's hands and feet were tied with thin iron chains, and there were several bells hanging from the chains, and this sound was made by the bells.

I thought that the three of them were grandparents, but now it seems that this is not the case.

It seems that this old woman is a ...... Captive?

Judging from her appearance, the old woman feels that she is not a human being, but a bit like a demon.

I didn't pay attention to the old woman's coveting of the snake meat in my hand, more than one thing is better than less.

And at this time, the old woman made a cat meow in her mouth, stretched out her arms, and the nails of her palms were actually curved like hooks, which looked very sharp!

She scratched her nails on the ground, and an extremely harsh sound rang out.

"That's enough!" the little girl raised her eyebrows, grabbed a whip from the ground with her backhand, and whipped it down at the old woman.
