Chapter 3: Black and White
Chapter 3: Black and White
Liu Changsheng's lighter was also extinguished with the scream, I don't know what it was, in order to cope with the sudden danger, they all lay down, although their hearts were pounding, but they all tried their best to control it, not to make a sound, so as not to attract greater harm.
After staying for a while, Liu Changsheng didn't hear any sound, nor did he find anything, he felt strange in his heart, so he stood up boldly, turned on the lighter again, looked at it with the help of the flames, and didn't see anything, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, he obviously saw a white-haired zombie, why did he disappear?
In order to solve the difficulty of going out, to take precautions, he brought with him umbrellas and flashlights and other necessary items, and now he remembered the small flashlight he brought with him, so he took it out to illuminate it, and with the help of a beam of electric light, he found nothing, and his heart was even more suspicious......
He thought he was dazzled, and called Zheng Ming and Li Jian to confirm. They also proved that they had seen it, which means that there was indeed a moving thing not far from them, and it was inferred that this thing was not a man, nor was it a beast, and if it were a man, he would not be afraid of a dog biting a wolf and not daring to see them, but if it was a beast, it would attack them by surprise and make them unguarded, and it was neither a man nor a beast, what was it? Could it be that some kind of visitor from outside the world could not be? No, he immediately denied his idea, if it was a visitor from outside the world, it would not have appeared in this ghost place.
Liu Changsheng thought about it again and again, and in order to solve the doubts in the hearts of the two of them, he was relieved and said: "Don't be afraid, this may be the 'white zombie' that people say, seeing that it moves slowly and has fluffy white hair, it is a verification of people's legends." It is said that the white zombie is the lowest level of the zombie class, the smallest energy, is the newly dead corpse is possessed by evil things or evil energy, the corpse absorbs the sunlight, and the corpse changes through the breath of the human body, and becomes a zombie.
Therefore, after a person dies, his relatives first put the deceased on the bed, and use a quilt in the winter and a sheet in the summer, covering the deceased's whole body, and covering his face with yellow paper to prevent him from being exposed. His relatives do not leave the bedside, and they keep filial piety day and night, the purpose of which is to prevent evil things or evil spirits from possessing them and causing the corpse to undergo corpse transformation. Another reason, if there is no one to take care of it, I am afraid that the corpse will be injured by some animal, and I heard that some deceased people were bitten and eaten by rats and dogs, and the corpse was incomplete, so that their relatives were infamous for being unfilial and scolded by everyone.
"I heard that the newly deceased corpse lies on the bed, if there is no one to guard the bed day and night, if it is crawled on the newly deceased corpse by an animal such as a mouse or cat, the newly deceased corpse will be attached to the evil spirit, and it is easy to cheat to death, so the deceased before and after the burial, let the deceased's head face towards the door, in case the deceased cheats the corpse, he can only walk with a stiff face inward, and when he touches the back wall of the house, he will fall to the ground and lie down, so as not to go out of the house and frighten others, so there is a certain reason for doing that.
"Because Bai Zhuang has no cultivation, his magic power is still shallow, he is afraid of chickens, dogs, water, fire, and people, so when he sees the fire we have lit, he is afraid to dodge, and he does not dare to meet us. Because we were not mentally prepared at that time, and in the dim light we thought that some beast was coming, and if we knew that it was this white zombie, there would be nothing to fear. The reason why I had this idea was because I thought that the "living dead" riding on the back of a dinosaur, since there were already those powerful zombies, there would also be imbecile white-haired zombies, and maybe their nests were in front of us. ”
Zheng Ming said: "Why are there zombies?"
Liu Changsheng said: "When people die, their souls are scattered and discouraged, and zombies are formed after people die, because they have no human souls, and they have no human images, let alone in broad daylight, because they are afraid of the sun."
"I often say that I have an umbrella before it rains, and I dig a well when I am not thirsty, I came out to find someone, of course, I have the utensils I need, I carry an umbrella, a mirror, a flashlight, etc., and a sharp short sword, which was given to me by a woman named Hideko Yamamura in Japan, and her mother is Li Jian's mentor Aunt Kong Xiujuan. I used that short sword to slash the demons in the Sea of Japan and save Hideko Yamamura from falling into the water. When I was fighting the monster, I was too confused to use the dagger and now I have thought of a way to deal with the zombies. ”
Zheng Ming said: "What method is used?"
Liu Changsheng said: "To identify whether it is a zombie, you can use a mirror to look at it, if there is no image in the mirror, it proves that it is a zombie ghost, because the shadow and the image are symbols of the human soul."
"I've heard in Japan that if you combine two mirrors, you can see your current face and many different faces, and the thirteenth face is the one you will be when you die in the future. If you look at three mirrors at 2 a.m., your face will appear on the front, and on the right and left, you will see the person you hate and the person who hates you.
"If you look in the mirror at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night on your birthday, you will see the person you will be married to, and if you look in the mirror at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night on Friday the 13th, you will see your own remains. It is said that if one looks at a cracked mirror, the soul will be sucked into the mirror, and if the eyes of the thirteenth face are seen closed in the merged mirror, then the person will soon be gone. In my hometown, there is a custom of marrying a daughter-in-law, and there is a custom of hanging a mirror on the table of worshipping heaven and earth, saying that if a ghost follows the newcomer to make trouble, it will appear in the mirror, and if you see a mirror hanging, you will run away for fear of being illuminated, and you will not dare to stay in the newcomer's house.
"It's because the zombie ghost is afraid of mirrors, fire and sunlight, we can use this method to deal with it, and it is not the opponent of the three of us. It is often said that evil does not prevail over good, no matter what demons and monsters, as long as we share life and death and share the same hatred and hatred, there is nothing that cannot be dealt with. ”
With his explanation and encouragement, Zheng Ming and Li Jian relieved their fears, increased their confidence and courage to overcome difficulties, and realized that if they stopped here, they would die, and if they continued to move forward, they would have the courage to move forward with him. As they walked, they suddenly noticed a human figure wriggling not far in front of them, and they didn't know what they were doing. They crouched down, and with the help of the faint light, they looked closely, and its body was covered with black hair several inches long, like a black bear sucking the blood of a cow, and unlike the blood-sampire monster they had encountered before, it was in the form of a human being, with human hands and feet.
Zheng Ming looked at it and whispered to the two of them: "I see that this thing is similar to the black bear I saw in the forest, and it was responsible for many cattle throwing incidents in the countryside, I don't know how it could ......be here."
Liu Changsheng whispered: "I don't look like a black bear, I look like a wild man, according to the world and farms have reported tens of thousands of incidents of 'unknown blood-sucking creatures' attacking livestock, and some people even think that it is a 'wild man' is a black zombie." It is said that the combination of black and white stiffness is called 'black and white double evil', hearing is false, seeing is believing, and what we see is very likely to be the legendary black and white double evil. ”
Li Jian said: "Since you say that zombies and demons are all souls of no one and you can't see their shadows, why don't you use a mirror to look at them and try it?"
Liu Changsheng took his suggestion, held a mirror in his left hand and a short sword in his right hand to prevent accidents, quietly and slowly approached it, and then tried to look at it with the mirror, and sure enough, he didn't see its image in the mirror, confirming that it was not a human being, nor an animal, but black and stiff. The black stiff had his back on his back, and was engrossed in sucking the blood of the cow, not noticing him.
He heard that the black zombie is just the second level of the zombie, that is, after the white zombie sucks the blood of cattle and sheep for several years, it will take off the white hair on its body, and replace it with a body of black hair a few inches long, just like a snake molting its skin, the snake sheds a layer of skin and grows a little thicker, and the white zombie transforms into a black zombie and becomes a second-level zombie. At this time, its ability to cultivate is not great, it is still afraid of the sun and fire, its behavior is relatively slow, it cannot compete with others, and generally avoids people when it sees them, and does not dare to fight with others.
Presumably, this black zombie only greedily sucked the blood of the cow, and did not find them, so he did not avoid it. Black zombie also likes to suck human blood very much, because the aura of heaven and earth is too little, and absorbing the aura of heaven and earth is far from satisfying their needs, and man is the spirit of all things, the essence and blood are vigorous, and the spirit is abundant, which is not comparable to other animals, if it absorbs human blood, it can greatly increase its power and enter the third level of zombies as soon as possible. It is because the black zombie is not strong enough to resist people, so it is afraid of people, and does not dare to forcibly suck people's blood openly, and often sneaks into the house, sucking people's blood in people's sleep, hurting people's lives.
It is because Liu Changsheng understands this black and white double evil, so he is not afraid, because it is useless to be afraid, if he can survive, he has to fight, in order to protect Zheng Ming and Li Jian, he took the brunt of it and walked to the front, shouting at the black zombie, the sound was so loud that it was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, deafening, and frightened the black zombie to drop the prey and hide in panic.
Zheng Ming and Li Jian thought that he was in danger, so they hurried to come to the rescue, and when they saw that he was safe and sound, they relieved their hearts and asked him where the black zombie was. "Scared away by my shouts," he said. Li Jian said: "It seems that it is still afraid of people." Zheng Ming said: "Evil cannot suppress good, and talent is the master of controlling all things." ”
When the three of them were talking about this matter, they suddenly felt as if a figure had flashed past them, and slapped Zheng Ming's head.
