Chapter 15: The Shadow Corpse

"What's that black thing?" said Jianguo's mother very worriedly.

"His sister-in-law, don't worry, that is the Jiangmi rice wine that I drank just now, the reason why it turned black is because it pulled out all the corpse poison in the body, although there is very little corpse poison in the body, but after last night's time, it has already multiplied to the current Cheng dΓΉ, fortunately, it was found early, if it is a day late, it will be dangerous. Uncle Li watched the two of them vomit, and then put his heart down.

"Ahh Alas...thank you so much!" At this point she didn't know what to say.

"Hehe, it's nothing, most of the corpse poison has been expelled now, but there is still a little residue in the body, and I will feed them once a day at noon as I did just now, and after a week, it will basically be fine. Uncle Li said with a smile: "By the way, there is also that phlegm bucket, which will be buried directly in a deep pit in a while to solve future troubles." ”

"Well, definitely. At this time, Jianguo's mother had already regarded Uncle Li as the living Hua Tuo. After a while, the two people on the bed vomited, and immediately felt much lighter, the cyan on their bodies gradually receded, and the black gas on their faces was basically gone, and they thanked Uncle Li and me vigorously.

Seeing that the two of them were basically in no danger, Uncle Li and I said goodbye and went home, and Jianguo's mother sent them out of the door with great gratitude.

"Master, how can this fish have corpse poison on it? Could it be that there is a corpse buried under this new fish pond, and it will only be brought by the fish if it is eaten? In that case, the fish in the whole fish pond will not be able to eat. Out of the martial arts, I asked puzzled.

"Hehe, you're only half right," Uncle Li explained, "It's true that there was a corpse near that pond, but it wasn't eaten by the fish, it was eaten by the fish." ”

"Ahh......h

"Well, you guessed it, there's definitely a cemetery near the newly dug pond, and the corpses inside are moving. The half of the fish caught yesterday was left from its bite. ”

"A corpse that can move by itself, isn't that the same as the Big Red Hand?" I wondered.

"No, this is different from the big red hand, which is manipulated by the soul of the deceased, and this one is called the "shadow corpse", which does not have any soul control. If the place where the corpse is buried is too heavy, then without the body of the soul, it will gradually have spirituality due to absorbing too much yin energy, just like trees, without a soul but can still find nutrients on its own, there must be a tomb buried with a "shadow corpse" near this newly built fish pond, and now it has used this fish pond as its own kitchen. Let's go back to the fish pond and have a look. After Uncle Li finished speaking, the two of them went straight to the newly dug fish pond.

The so-called fish pond is actually a large pit with a depth of about three meters. The fish pond was about 30 meters long and 20 meters wide, and many willow trees were planted around it. To the east of the pond there is a river that brings water directly from the east spring to raise fish, to the south is a dirt road leading to the village, to the west there is a small power distribution room that provides electricity to the two aerators in the middle of the pond, and to the north is the hillside that can go up directly to the hill to the east of the dam.

After looking at the surrounding environment, Uncle Li sighed, "There is too much water here, completely suppressing the power of Binghuo, although there is Wu Tu to restrain the water, but the Yimu all over the mountains and fields has restrained most of the power of the soil, and there is no Gengjin to drain the power of the water, so this is completely a pattern of yin and yang decline, hehe, the girls in this village must be smart and beautiful, and the boys must be as stunned as Wu Jianguo." It would be nice to build a big factory here, which would not only increase the power of the fire, but also drain the power of the water. In this way, the five elements are balanced. ”

"Hehe, you just said that they won't build a factory here, or think about something practical, can you see where the shadow corpse is buried?" I asked.

"There isn't even a grave in such a big place, how do I know exactly where that guy is buried, but judging from the terrain, it should be buried somewhere on the northern slope, where the yin qi is the heaviest. Uncle Li replied.

The northern slope of the hill was more than a mile long, and I grinned, "What should we do? We must turn over this hillside without exhaustion!"

"Haha, who told you to go up the hill. Uncle Li smiled and said to me: "If you catch the lotus leaf, are you still worried that you can't dig up the lotus root? ”

"yes, wouldn't it be easier for us to catch him at night?" I said excitedly.

"Hehe, you can try it once, it's easier than catching him or waiting to dig his nest during the day!" Uncle Li looked at me and smiled, and then continued: "That's fine, in order to let you see and understand, then let's catch it tonight and see which one is more convenient." ”

"Okay!" I was thrilled to catch the "Shadow Corpse", and what I had learned could finally come in handy.

After dinner, I dragged my brother to Uncle Li's house, and when I told him about it, Tie Zhu was also very excited. So Uncle Li made the division of labor. First of all, it is necessary to set up a five-turn Yang Gathering Array around the fish pond, and when the shadow corpse enters the fish pond, the array will be activated, and all the yin energy around it will be converted into yang energy to restrain the yin energy of the shadow corpse, thereby reducing its ability, so that it will be easier to catch.

Secondly, Uncle Li expects that the "shadow corpse" will come in from the underwater pool wall on the north side of the fish pond, so he must prepare a large net to block the way it comes, so that even if he escapes from everyone, he will be caught in the net on the way back, and finally prepare some charms for self-defense, after all, this operation is still dangerous.

After the preparation was completed, the three masters and apprentices quietly came to the side of the martial artist's fish pond, and according to the plan, I first arranged the Five Turns Gathering Yang Array around the area. The five-turn gathering yang array is to put four compasses in the four directions of east, west, north and south, and adjust the aura in each direction to the state that is most conducive to the collection of yang energy. The power of the deuce is moved here, and the power of the yang wood is increased, and the power of the eastern yin wood is moved by the compass in the south, and the power of the yin wood is increased by the compass, and the power of the yang fire is increased, and the power of the central yin and earth is moved by the compass, and the power of the yang gold is increased by the generation of geng, and the power of the yang water is increased by the northern non debilitating water, and the power of the western yin jin xin is moved by the compass, and the power of the yang water is increased by the power of the yang water. In this way, all the yin around me will be converted into yang, and when I use the compass in my hand to convert the yin fire ding into yang earth, the whole great array will be activated immediately.

At the same time, the iron pillar had already taken the big net and lay on the shore on the north side of the fish pond, paying close attention to the movement in the water. Uncle Li, on the other hand, sat leisurely on the south side of the avenue, smoking a cigarette while quietly waiting for the "shadow corpse" to enter the net.

Spring nights are firefly nights, and they are everywhere in the wheat fields and ponds. In the dark night, although it was only a faint light, it was this little light that dressed the whole field like a fairy tale world, full of mystery.

The clock gradually pointed to midnight, and with a compass in my hand, I and my brother lay quietly in the grass on the north bank of the fish pond, watching the pond closely. There is no wind in the air, the whole fish pond is very quiet, there is occasionally a string of blisters on the water surface, and all kinds of small animals living in the water are playing happily. In fact, in this world, as long as you pay a little attention, you will find that every corner of nature is very beautiful.

Just as I was reveling in the beauty of the night, a sudden wave occurred on the surface of the water, and then a dark shadow appeared at the bottom of the water to the right of the iron pillar. The two brothers immediately focused their attention and stared at the dark shadow tightly.

The black shadow lay at the bottom of the water, like a sunken log, straight and slowly drifting towards the center of the fish pond. The iron pillar quietly crawled towards the place where the black shadow appeared, slowly sinking the fishing net into the water, sealing its path, and tying the two ends of the fishing net to the willow tree next to it, and then took out the rope, waiting for the opportunity to catch the "Shadow Corpse". And I waited for my brother to make a move, and then activated the Gathering Sun Array, while Uncle Li was still sitting leisurely by the river, observing the movement in the water.

At this time, the black shadow swam quickly and slowly from side to side in the water, as if chasing the fish in the water, which made the two brothers on the shore anxious, if the "shadow corpse" did not come out of the water, then it would be difficult to catch it. At this moment, a big fish jumped out of the water, and the black shadow that was chasing after it also jumped out, and the true face of the "shadow corpse" was suddenly presented in front of everyone.

This "shadow corpse" is not like in the movie: wearing a cyan official robe, a red tasseled official hat, and white-soled official boots, but his hair is scattered and sticking to his face, and his body is an earthy yellow long coat with many fragments hanging on it, and he is barefoot and has no shoes. I saw it jump straight out of the water, with its arms on both sides, like a wooden stick flying out of the water, followed closely behind the big fish with its mouth open, swept through the air, plopped and plunged into the water, and after a while it crossed out on the other side, and under the moonlight, a strange fishing scene appeared in front of everyone.

The iron pillar held the rope, staring closely at the trace of the black shadow, and with a "poof" sound, the fish rose three or four meters in front of the iron pillar, and the iron pillar immediately picked up the rope, and when the "shadow corpse" just jumped out of the water, the rope sleeve was thrown out, and it was on the body of the "shadow corpse". This skill of using a rope to cover things is that after watching a cowboy movie three years ago, Tie Zhu began to practice it by himself, and he is using it now.

After the "Shadow Corpse" was trapped, he immediately got into the water, and the iron pillar immediately dragged the rope backwards, but he couldn't drag it after just two steps, and the strength of the "Shadow Corpse" was very large, and he began to pull the iron pillar into the river, "Hurry up!" At the same time as the iron pillar shouted, I flicked the compass, and the five-turn Yang Gathering Array was immediately activated, and a strong breath came from under my feet, and the iron pillar instantly felt full of strength, and at the same time, the tension at the end of the rope suddenly decreased a lot, and it seemed that this array did play a great role.

I also ran over and pulled the rope, and the brothers pulled the rope back little by little, and the black shadow in the water leaned towards the shore little by little. Suddenly, as soon as the rope was loosened, as if broken, the brothers fell backwards at the same time due to the force they had exerted. "It's over, run away for him!" I thought to myself, and hurriedly got up from the ground. After the iron pillar got up, he threw down the rope and ran directly in the direction of the fishing net, and I followed.
