Chapter 45: In the Land of Mutation, Are There Zombies?

A wilderness outside the city of Suzhou. There was a mass grave, and Linglong and Zhong Hongshan walked on the path, and they had to use their true qi to resist the cold aura of this place, even in the afternoon, it was full of ghosts. "Do you believe that there is an underworld?" asked Linglong, Zhong Hongshan poured a large sip of wine, the liquor irritated his mouth, and a flush ran across his face, as if he was already drunk. "I don't know, since ancient times, there have been legends that the land of Yin can lead to the underworld, which seems to me to be nonsense. "It's not like a scholar can say it. Linglong chuckled. The tombstones on the ground were scattered around, and some only had a small wooden plaque, not even a dirt bag. "It's so desolate here!" kicked the grave bag, and Linglong didn't feel the slightest nervousness at all. "I say, you have to be a little awe-inspiring!" Zhong Hongshan shook his head, it was very dangerous to move things around in such a place.

"Where did you say there was something abnormal?" Linglong quickly changed the topic, and Zhong Hongshan couldn't resist it. "Follow me!" Zhong Hongshan's face was straight, he couldn't joke at this time, the abnormal place appeared in the mass grave, is there anything worse than this? The two of them sped up, and their bodies swept over one tombstone and grave bag after another, heading towards the depths of the mass grave, until they came to the bottom of a mountain. The cold here is even better than before, and people shiver with cold, Linglong took Zhong Hongshan's liquor and poured it to feel better. "You don't have to resist with true qi, you won't be able to hold it soon. Zhong Hongshan took the flask and asked Linglong with concern, "There is no problem." Linglong pursed her lips, this thing is so spicy, I don't know why they like to drink it so much. The two of them carefully looked at the mountain in front of them, saying that it was a mountain, but in fact it was more like a stone wall, as if a mountain had been cut in half, revealing a smooth mountain. Touching the stone wall, Zhong Hongshan turned around and said: "It's not artificially excavated, there seems to be something inside, do you want to go in and take a look?" "Since you're here, you're willing to wait to go in and have a look, otherwise wouldn't you come for nothing?" Linglong groped on the stone wall with a pair of slender hands, there must be some mechanism that could be opened, otherwise such a big stone wall, do you want them to blast in?" "Here!" Zhong Hongshan raised his hand and groped, and touched a somewhat protruding stone, and when he pressed it, there was a sound in the stone wall, and the stone wall shook, as if something was missing.

"It feels different. The two of them looked at each other and began to bang on the stone wall at the same time, and when they hit the middle, there was finally something different. "Empty!" Linglong was surprised, took out a thin sword in his hand, and gently stabbed it inside, and the thin sword easily passed through, leaving only a sword hilt outside. "I'll come!" Zhong Hongshan grabbed the hilt of the sword and slashed it to both sides until a man-sized hole was opened, and with a kick of his foot and the broken stone wall, a dark hole appeared in front of them. "There's something in there. The two looked at each other, and both saw the excitement in each other's eyes, after all, this is not a regular thing. "Follow me. Zhong Hongshan stepped in first, pulled out the sword on his back with his backhand, and held it across his chest, ready to deal with all kinds of opportunities. After a few battles forward, the deep passage finally came to an end, and a wall stretched in front of them, blocking the way.

This is a wall full of murals, painted quite well, and the colors used have not faded even after years of precipitation, and they are still intact on it. "Is there no other way?" Linglong looked left and right, as if there was only one straight road, what kind of mechanism was it?" "Wait!" Zhong Hongshan stopped Linglong, "Can't you wait for me to finish the painting before you do it?" "What's so beautiful about a painting?" Linglong muttered, simply ran to the side, leaned against the wall to rest, and was tired of worrying along the way. Zhong Hongshan shook his head, came to the mural, and carefully observed the mural, hoping to find something on it. The mural is very exciting, it is describing a grand scene, Zhong Hongshan frowned, the painting on it is not a good thing.

The colorful mural describes a major event, to the effect that a deep mountain and old forest, a place where the yin gathers, like an underworld, painted a lot of hideous ghosts, black and oppressive around a blood-red place. One day, this blood-red place was buried a corpse, and after a long, long time, a very terrible zombie crawled out of this blood-red land! The zombie was very powerful, after crawling out of the bloody field, it swayed around, killing people and drinking blood, destroying a lot of villages along the way, and finally angered the court at that time, and the court sent an army to suppress the zombie in a fit of anger, who knew that this zombie was invulnerable, and ordinary swords and soldiers had no effect on the body at all, so that the army was caught off guard and defeated back to the court. The zombies continued to kill the Quartet, and the imperial court summoned the heroes of the Quartet to go to the court to discuss how to subdue this zombie. Finally a person stood up, the person was wrapped in a ball of light, not real, Zhong Hongshan could only barely distinguish a human figure on the mural, he was originally a wise man in the court, came up with a clever plan, used the trick to trick the zombie into a trap, made a coffin with black iron, poured something that might be dog blood inside, and finally suppressed the zombie, sealed it in the coffin forever. Later, the man asked for orders to keep the coffin to ensure that there would be no zombies in the future, and buried the coffin with him and sealed it in a big mountain. There is also a big character in the back, which are very ancient characters, and Zhong Hongshan can't understand them.

"Hey, have you figured out something?" Linglong had almost rested enough, and also came over to look at the mural with Zhong Hongshan, but she obviously didn't have much imagination in her head, and she couldn't understand it at all. "I can see it, but if that's the case, I think we'd better not go in. Zhong Hongshan had a gloomy face, an invulnerable zombie, if this was put outside, it would definitely be a bloody storm, just talking about this Suzhou City, I am afraid it will be bloody. "What the hell?" Linglong pestered Zhong Hongshan like a curious baby and said, "It's a zombie! Are you afraid?" Zhong Hongshan made a grimace, wanting to scare Linglong, seeing that she didn't react, she also felt bored, and found a place to sit down. "Zombies!" Linglong's eyes blinked, thinking that such an ancient zombie would definitely have a lot of funeral goods, thinking of those glittering gold and beautiful jewelry, Linglong's eyes were as hot as torches, staring at a pair of eyes looking up and down, she was determined to pay attention to the fact that she must go to see what the zombie looked like today.

"What are you doing?" Before Zhong Hongshan could stop it, Linglong had already found the mechanism, raised his foot and stomped hard, stepping on a stone brick, and a hole immediately opened in the ground, which was bottomless. "Come on, since something unusual is happening here, shouldn't we go down and take a look?" Laughing softly, Linglong dragged Zhong Hongshan from the secret door and jumped down, completely ignoring what would be down there. The dark tunnel didn't last long, and soon they fell into an empty room, their feet touching the ground, and Linglong and Zhong Hongshan rolled on the ground to prevent crossbow arrows or other mechanisms. Zhong Hongshan pulled out his sword, and his true qi shook and slashed the ground, and a burst of bright sparks sparked between the sword body and the ground, illuminating the surrounding environment. "It's too dark in here. Linglong muttered, took out a candle from his body, and touched it with his hand, and the crimson true qi lit the candle and illuminated a small place. "You're so well prepared!" Zhong Hongshan looked at the candle in Linglong's hand speechlessly, who would bring this kind of thing when he went out. "......" Linglong smiled awkwardly, didn't answer him, and began to check the surrounding environment by herself.

"This is an underground palace. "Yes. Zhong Hongshan nodded, the place described in the mural is definitely here, "If there is no accident, we will face an old zombie that is at least a hundred years old, not to mention the kind that is invulnerable and amazingly powerful." "Take it easy, we'll just take a look, as long as we don't alarm it, there shouldn't be any problem." Linglong comforted, holding a candle in her hand, she had already touched the wall to find a portal, and the two looked at each other, to open it or not to open it?
