The throat that had been invaded by the corpse qi had healed, and although there was still a little bit of hot pain, at least it was okay to speak.

The wounds on the limbs and back of the waist were also simply bandaged, and they were coated with green herbal juice.

I raised my hand to look at it, and the bandaging was rough and seemed rushed. The thing was a small first aid kit from my bag, and a small bottle of disinfectant alcohol was long empty.

Tearing the gauze, the wound scratched by the nails has healed, which also moved me slightly. Is it because of my physical recovery? Or did the other party use some secret medicine?

Otherwise, the wound wouldn't have healed so quickly.

I sat there and gasped for breath, then I took out a box of canned beef from my bag, and despite the cold weather in the morning, I directly pried open it with a dagger and buried my head in it.

After eating and drinking, I packed up my things, picked up the tantric iron rod that had fallen on the ground, and sat on the ground in a daze.

Last night, I was caught by the villagers of Dead Man's Gully.

They bled me with their fingernails, hoping to make my body into a dried corpse, and collect my soul into the Dead Man's Ditch, where I would be trained as the next generation of village chiefs.

It stands to reason that I should not be able to escape this fate. But it seems that the other party found out where I came from somehow. I am a member of the Zhang family, and I am also a sinner.

And they judged the reason for all this, and vaguely remembered that it was...... Blood?

That's right, although my consciousness was blurry at that time, I still heard a lot.

The old village chief was afraid of my family, so he didn't dare to kill me again. Not only that, but he also had the soul grass retrieved to treat my injuries.

It's just that after I bandaged my wounds in a hurry, they didn't know what to do with me.

Kill me, don't dare. Stay, and I'm afraid that I will wake up and take revenge. So he simply threw me on the spot and left myself to fend for myself.

I guess they just begged me to wake up and was frightened, so I quickly left the range of the Dead Man's Ditch.

It took me half an hour to sort out the current situation. It's a bit bitter to say, I came out to walk the rivers and lakes, and this time I was saved by the prestige of my own family.

Speaking of which, is my old Zhang family so terrible?

Either way, this fate was saved. But what do I do next?

Is it to return to the Soulless Bridge in the gray and face the revenge of the Blackheart Fairy? Or try your luck in the Dead Man's Ditch again?

I thought about it for a long time before I slowly stood up, cleaned up the scattered things on the ground, and then secretly made up my mind.

Back to the Dead Man's Ditch!

If nothing else, as long as Mr. Pi's picture scroll is burned, the black-hearted fairy is afraid that it will be finished.

This is what the Qinghai town guard promised me.

Looking at the time, it was only ten o'clock in the morning, and although my body was very weak, I was sure in my heart that the old village chief would not dare to kill me, so I simply continued to walk back.

After walking for a short time, I saw a deep pit more than ten meters wide blocking in front of me, surrounded by loose dirt and flying weeds.

That's where I lit the detonator last night.

Around the pit, the tombs were in a mess, and the coffins that had been lifted last night were also buried in the soil again.

I glanced around and saw that there were more than 200 tombs here, rolling and densely packed.

In the middle is a mound that is particularly tall, and the tombstone is engraved with a series of small letters. It's just that because it's too far away, I can't see it very really.

That tomb is the tomb of my ancestors.

The ghost tomb during the day is very different from the night, although it is still eerie, but at least it does not have the eerie feeling of last night.

And the whole tomb was silent, as if what had happened last night was a dream.

I exclaimed, "Old village chief! Come out and speak! ”

The sound was transmitted in torrents, spreading far, far away. Some of the local marmots were so frightened that they burrowed into the ground, but those who probed their brains did not dare to come out.

The cemetery was quiet, and after a long while, someone gritted his teeth and said, "The surname is Zhang!" We let you go, why do you want to come back! ”

"It's true that our grave keepers don't dare to kill you, don't they!"

I scoffed and sneered, "Come on!" If you really want to kill me, you did it last night! ”

"You don't dare to kill me!"

There was a whisper from inside the graveyard, and even my eyes widened to make out where it was coming from.

Then someone shouted, "What are you doing here!" ”

I heard this person's voice, it was Li Shengli who took me into the Dead Man's Ditch in the first place.

I sat on top of a tombstone and said lightly, "Where is Qi Rui!" ”

Li Shengli said: "I've been locked up!" ”

I snorted and said, "Old village chief, let's talk about a few conditions, how about it?" ”

Inside the cemetery, the voice of the old village chief came faintly: "What do you want? It was a complete accident to hurt you before! We don't want to hurt the Zhang family. ”

"After all, this tomb was built by the people of the Zhang family. If our group of dead souls can have a place to live, it can be regarded as a blessing for you. ”

I was in a good mood, and I was a little apprehensive when I came before, but now that I heard the old village chief admit it, the worries in my heart were instantly swept away.

I took out the tantric iron rod and said with a smile, "Old village chief, come and talk?" Who is buried in this tomb? ”

I thought I was from the Zhang family, and the old village chief had to tell who the owner of the tomb was.

As a result, the other party said coldly: "It is precisely because you are from the Zhang family that you can't tell you who the tomb owner is!" ”

"Boy, don't take an inch! As grave keepers, we have to do our best for our masters! ”

He wouldn't say, and I didn't care. Anyway, there are countless strange people in the world, and I can't know them all.

But I said with a straight face: "Old village chief, since you said that this tomb was built by the ancestors of my Zhang family, and I want to come to accompany the funeral goods are also placed by the ancestors of my Zhang family?" ”

"I came back this time, I just want to ask for a funeral gift, how about it?"

This time, the old village chief was silent for a while, and after a long time, he said: "Those funeral goods, some of them belong to the owner, and the other part is put by the ancestors of your Zhang family." ”

"Some of these things are important, but some of them are insignificant. Tell me first, what do you want? ”

I was stunned for a moment, thinking that this old guy would refuse without hesitation, but I didn't expect to be so easy to talk this time.

Either way, there's at least hope, isn't it?

At that moment, I said solemnly: "Thank you to the old village chief." That thing is a picture scroll, and inside the picture scroll is a dead soul named Mr. Pi. ”

After I said it, I was actually a little nervous. What if this thing is important and people refuse to give it?

Is it to continue fighting? Or do you retreat and kill the black-hearted fairy?

If there is a fight, if the old village chief is in a hurry, will they kill me again?

While he was thinking about it, the old village chief's voice suddenly came: "That's a skinless ghost." Because when he died, he was skinned and cramped, and his whole body was condensed on the human skin. ”

"This thing was surrendered by the master himself, and then painted into the world in the volume. This thing is very important, very important! ”

When I heard this, I suddenly chuckled in my heart, and then secretly scolded for being unlucky, and people refused to give it!

But as soon as this thought came to mind, I heard the old village chief say again: "...... But after all, you are a member of the Zhang family, for the sake of the ancestors of the Zhang family, I will give this thing to you on my own initiative! ”

"But you have to promise me one condition!"

As soon as I heard this, my heart chuckled. This old man is very treacherous!

It's obviously a very ordinary burial object, so you may be eating ashes somewhere in the grave. But in his mouth, it became the most important thing!

Or would he give it to me? Impossible!

Although I thought so in my heart, I still didn't make any extraneous things, and said, "What conditions! ”

The old village chief's voice was solemn: "After you leave, you must not reveal everything about the Dead Man's Valley!" The soul of the corpse country is an important means of defending against foreign tomb robbers, I don't want the master to be disturbed by foreign tomb robbers, and I don't want greedy exorcists to come and make trouble! ”

"Especially the Qinghai Town Guard!"

"You must know that this is the tomb built by your Zhang family's ancestors! You don't want to be hollowed out by outsiders, do you? ”

I nodded and said, "It's natural." I don't need to be reminded that I won't tell the outside world anything about this place! ”

Actually, I don't need to say it, and I won't leak the news here. First, this is a tomb built by my ancestors.

Second, it is not clear what the origin of the owner of the tomb is. What if it's related to my family? Once the news is leaked out, resulting in the theft of the grave, the responsibility is great.

The old village chief listened to my seriousness, and then sighed slowly; "I sent things to the edge of the graveyard. Hurry up after getting your things, you are not welcome in the Dead Man's Ditch! ”

I pouted, who wants to come to your place of the hell? A bunch of guys who didn't know how to stop when they died, and they almost killed me.

But I still said, "What about Qi Rui! ”

If it weren't for Qi Rui, I guess I would have confessed here tonight. The grace of saving lives must be repaid. Even if you can't take him out of here, you have to solve the problem for him.

The old village chief said coldly: "What? You're still going to meddle in our dead man's ditch? ”

I shouted: "The eldest husband has a kindness to repay his kindness, and he has revenge!" Brother Qi Rui saved my life, how could I let you hurt him? ”

"Let go! Otherwise, I'll blow up the surrounding tombs! ”

The cemetery was quiet, and no one answered. After a while, Qi Rui's voice came from inside the cemetery: "Little brother, thank you for your concern." ”

"It's just that I'm trapped in the Dead Man's Ditch, and I've already become the grave keeper here, and I can't leave again."

"Although the old village chief is strict, he will not harm my life, but I am at fault after all, and I am willing to bear the punishment."

The old village chief said coldly: "For the next hundred days, Qi Rui and his three brothers will go to the River Styx every night to carry a load of water!" ”

"As long as he can survive the punishment and not be dragged into the water by the floating corpse, his previous mistakes will be written off! This is the rule of the dead man's ditch! No one can violate it! ”
