Chapter 70: The Eagle's Beak Cliff Corpse Cave
The result of Ma Xiangping's trip was unsatisfactory, he didn't get the news he wanted, and he didn't even see Master Feng's face, so it can be said that he ran for nothing.
Before going down the mountain, in fact, the Taoist chief repeatedly told him that going out is not as good as staying in the sect, people's hearts are sinister, and the evil Taoist warlocks are all ruthless, and they really fight for their lives, either you die or I live, you must be cautious.
In fact, the Taoist chief has experienced a painful lesson, not to mention the others for the time being, let's just say that in the battle of Lishui County twenty years ago, because he acted recklessly, he was injured and chased by the warlocks of the Five Immortals Sect, resulting in the tragic death of Xiang Sheng's apprentice, and the two parties have been entangled for seventeen years and have not let go.
Shi Jian has always been cautious, a hundred zombies have a way to deal with them, and the zombies that are controlled by others are not easy to mess with, as the second uncle said, he is alone and needs a few helpers.
The second uncle is a loach, slippery or not, and he didn't give Shi Jian a good look, making it clear that he didn't want to play with him. Master Feng was not at home, and Shi Jian's wishful thinking couldn't work, so he had to rely on himself.
In the middle of the day, the yang energy is at its peak, and the demons and monsters and zombies will never dare to come out to move, Shi Jian took advantage of the day, came out of the Zhong family, and went straight to the coffin mountain.
Under the baking of the sun, the yin qi that permeated the zombie forest had completely dissipated, but this could not help Shi Jian, he took out a gossip mirror, inspected the distribution of yin qi around him, and then followed the footprints left on the ground all the way to the eagle's beak cliff in the mountain.
A huge, sharp rock juts out of the mountain, shaped like an eagle's long beak, from which the Eagle's Beak Cliff takes its name.
But seeing the high mountains around the eagle's beak cliff, the strange rocks are sagging, the dark clouds on the top are floating, the shadows of the trees in front of the cliff are cold, and the cold air currents are blown out of the black hole under the stone slab, which makes people chill.
Shi Jian stood a few zhang away and looked at the cliff cave, the light at the entrance was quite bright, but he could see some scenes clearly, the more he went inside, the darker the light, I don't know how deep, it was black, it seemed to lead to the netherworld, and he was frightened.
Looking down at the gossip plate, the pointer on it is pointing to the cliff cave, not bad at all. Shi Jian hesitated slightly, then made a decision, put away the gossip plate, held the Wanyang copper coin sword in one hand, buckled the thunder and lightning rune in the other, and pasted several talismans such as the King Kong Incorruptible Rune and the Five Thunder Talisman on his body, and walked into the cliff cave.
Entering it, he found that the inside was not low and narrow at all, but very spacious, and there were traces of artificial digging on the stone walls on both sides, thinking that the coffin mountain was originally a thief's den, and a touch of enlightenment instantly rose in his heart, the cliff cave should have been the thieves' lair before, even if it was not the lair, it must be a hiding place.
The farther away from the entrance, the dimmer the light became, and soon, the last light disappeared, and the endless darkness surged like a tide, and a faint sense of oppression and cold breath swept over the whole body, and the skin tightened, and suddenly goosebumps arose, and the hairs stood on end.
With a wave of his hand, a high-grade fireball talisman flew out, and the firelight burst out from the rune, quickly engulfing the rune paper and turning into a fireball the size of a bucket, floating above Shi Jian's head.
The darkness receded, the ground within a kilometer was covered with red light, and the eyesight returned to normal, but the cold aura was even stronger. The fireball popped, as if water was constantly falling on it.
Shi Jian pondered for a moment, and then chose a direction and walked quickly. After a while, the road came to an end, and out of the hole, a large space appeared in front of me.
It appears to be a gathering place for thieves, with several long tables in the center of the space flanked by damaged, overturned chairs. Thick dust fell on the wine jars and bowls, and cobwebs were strewn, looking like they had been abandoned for a long time.
Shi Jian quickly glanced around and found four or five passages leading to this place, and he had just walked only one of them.
Opposite the long table, in the deepest part of the space, there was a raised high platform, where the seat of the head of the thieves used to be placed, but now the seat was gone, and on top of it was a red lacquered coffin.
The color was bright red as blood, and a beam of light hung down from the skylight above, shining right inside the coffin, and if there was a person lying inside, the place where the light shrouded should be the head.
Shi Jian stared at the beam of light for a while, his face changed slightly, the light was not sunlight, there was no warm feeling of sunlight, like water and frost, and it seemed that he could feel the coldness contained in it from a distance.
"Yin gossip!"
Yin Bagua is a formation that reverses yin and yang, and can transform sunlight into yin light with extremely heavy yin energy, similar to moonlight at night. There was gossip on the skylight, and Shi Jian already knew what was in the coffin.
Walking towards the coffin, everything in the coffin gradually appeared in Shi Jian's eyes.
The red lacquer coffin does not touch the ground, and the four corners are raised with four low stools. The coffin was filled with yin soil, and a man lay on top of it, his hands and feet and limbs were all covered by yin soil, only his chest and head were exposed, and the corners of his mouth were stained with bloody crow feathers, and dead crows surrounded his body.
Shi Jian is a great expert in corpse refining, how can he not see that this is a more traditional method of corpse refining, what he really cares about is the person buried in the yin soil.
This person looked to be in his thirties and forties, with a disheveled hair and a black blindfold on his left eye, which looked very much like the appearance of Master Feng described to Shi Jian by Ma Xiangping's well-wishers.
"Master Feng?!"
Wasn't he invited by Master Zhou to save people? How did it end up here? Could it be that the same person who took the captors and the zombies took them?
Shi Jian's mind turned sharply, and he suddenly had a bad feeling, and learned from the mouths of others that this Master Feng was a man with high mana, and he was actually captured as a corpse refining material, which showed that the strength of the other party should not be underestimated.
At this moment, Shi Jian seemed to sense something, and his gaze moved upward, just in time for Master Feng's eyes that suddenly opened.
The air froze all at once.
Without waiting for Shi Jian to speak, Master Feng opened his mouth and shouted, "Little brother, go quickly!" The exorcist is here......"
"Jiji, one-eyed Feng, your breath-holding kung fu is also a bit interesting, but it's a pity that you can't hide it from my eyes, do you know why I didn't kill you? I want you to turn into a zombie with despair, resentment, and anger, so that the zombies you refine are even more powerful. ”
The sound of fingernails scraping through glass sounded behind him, and clusters of green ghostly fires appeared out of thin air, dyeing the entire space with a layer of eerie and terrifying colors.
Shi Jian turned his head to look, and a figure was blocked at the entrance at some point. His tall body was wrapped in a loose black robe, and the bones on his exposed face were exposed, leaving only a layer of skin and bones, a pair of eyes that shimmered with a faint green light shot a ferocious gaze like a beast, and a three-foot-long bone awl in his hand, staring at Shi Jian gloomily.
"Yes, yes, he has a strong body, full of qi and blood, and he is a good material for refining corpses." The exorcist's eyes shone with green light, and he pounced on Shi Jian like a giant bat, "Boy, I took your body." ”
