Chapter 53: The Corpse Rider
The charred black body, without even a piece of bright red flesh, the grease has long been burned clean, only the withered flesh is filled with rotten flesh like carbon, hot and weird, a pair of eyes made of shredded paper, exuding a strange green gloomy light, reflecting Li He's figure.
If you look closely, the figure in the paper ball is a yellowed and shabby paper figure, gloomy and compassionate, without the slightest anger.
There was a rotten smell all around, and the sky above was gray, and even breathing felt a dry heat.
Li Heyou guessed that the fire was not an accident, but he didn't expect that the bad omen was in this cemetery.
Earlier, it was said that Zhen Yin had found a good place for Xiangrui, but now it seems that it is a bit too good.
After he came into contact with the Bad Omen Catalogue, he knew that all fate was arranged for a reason or less.
Li Zhen has long been a place of crisis, and the horror of so many Taoist priests in the city who cannot detect it, or who have now detected it but is deep in the mud, can imagine the level of horror.
Whether it is the Zhen family or himself, they are deeply implicated in the bad omen. The entire territory of Li Zhen seems to be shrouded in bad luck, falling into endless strife, and countless disasters are coming one after another, which is suffocating.
What is the bad omen lurking in the town, and why is it so terrifying? Why did you focus on Li Zhen again?
He didn't know, but if he wanted to get out of the whirlpool, he had to improve his own strength and that of the mountains. At present, Kuchaling is in ruins, and it can only be used as its own pillar, so it is necessary to improve the Dao Method, otherwise it will not be able to survive future changes.
He stared at the pair of eerie green paper eyes, and his heart under the cold body gradually became hot, which should be the final puzzle piece of the shredded paper painting.
The paper paintings in the catalogue have floated up, and the confetti in the sky has been reassembled into a painting, and a picture of a palace dress show girl jumps on the paper, regardless of the figure and appearance, it is unique, and the country is overwhelmed, but it is too perfect so that it is not real enough, as if it is smeared with paint, and the strange image is pervasive.
At this time, if you look closely, the blurred face has a somewhat picturesque appearance, but the eyes are pitch black, and they are unexpectedly vacant, lacking a trace of charm, or weirdness.
Although Li He's target was paper, he was also observing the charred corpse in front of him.
Why can you see at a glance that it is an eight-rank bad omen, in addition to the powerful weird Dao power, there is also a faint uneasiness.
This is the oppressive force that Li He has never felt before, just like when he saw the paper maid for the first time as an ordinary person, the gap between the two is leapfrogging.
Now Li He feels the same way, but not so strongly. To put it bluntly, if your guess is correct, the bad omen of the eight grades is to condense several nine products and turn them into a more terrifying existence.
Li He has a troubled paper figure, a shredded paper painting, and the symbiosis of the tea field in the catalogue, as well as the luck of holding the national order, in fact, he is only one step away from the eight products of auspiciousness, which is also one of the confidence that he dares to come to Li Town.
The body gradually turned into paper, the breath became cold, and half of the body was covered with yellow paper, although it was a little wrinkled, but it was not the same as the bleak appearance after the end of the kiln village.
I have to say that Liu Ruhua's little secret is really easy to use.
went out to work and swept weird, and Xiaoyanagi conscientiously guarded his hometown; When you return, you are physically and mentally exhausted, and the bad omen is devouring, and a pair of spiritual tongues are full of tricks, and you can also absorb the breath of bad omen and improve yourself. And then there is a fairy-like appearance in the painting, at least it looks pleasing to the eyes, and it is simply tailor-made.
Of course, Liu Ruhua's so-called absorption of the breath of bad omen is actually the profound connection between the human face tea field and it, and the strongest symbiosis given by the catalogue. He himself can also import tea to the tea field, but it is not as efficient as Liu Ruhua, and seeing that such a big war is coming, he naturally has to work hard to be picturesque, cough cough.
Thinking about it, I couldn't help but think about it. It's not that Li Hemi is in the brain, but with the expansion of the human face and tea land, the national decree has formed a unique connection, even if it is extremely far away, he can borrow a trace of so-called luck and form his own domain, so as to make the bad omen's breath more powerful, and his feelings have become like ordinary people.
Within a few breaths, there was movement around Li He's body, like the collision of tea leaves being blown, and a special breath floated.
Several of the mounds near him had already crawled out of the old bones, but as soon as they entered the realm, they fell apart, as if they had been blown down by a weak wind.
But this did not have any effect on the scorched corpse, it was the real source of bad omen, no one's joys and sorrows, only the weirdness itself, obeying the essence and killing all the creatures that triggered its laws.
The grave grew more and more gloomy, and corpses kept coming out, and there were old bones, and the whole body was filled with viscous darkness, and stood again; There is a half-rotten body, which is broken, but it grows strange red hair, and slowly crawls out; There are even new corpses that have just been buried, barely draped in rags, the corpses are dull, old and tangerine peel, disgusting and terrible.
Each of these corpses was no small threat, and gradually mutated, with the aura of bad omen.
Li He turned around and said solemnly to Zhen Yin.
"You take the talisman I gave, go quickly! The bad omen in front of me is a bit difficult to deal with, and I can't take care of your consideration. ”
Hearing this, Zhen Yin hurriedly retreated and avoided the tomb.
He can see Zhen Li's fate very clearly, if he is caught in the grave by the awakened corpse, the ending can be imagined.
But he didn't provoke the corpse, but the evil corpse in the grave didn't let him go.
Zhen Yin ran the breathing method, and his body was also very fast, almost not weaker than a fast horse, but a few bone dogs sprang out of the surrounding mounds, tirelessly chasing away.
Even the dark white bones that were close to him followed, and Li He threw a few Dao talismans in the direction of the locust tree, and the sound of explosions did not stop.
After a while, I heard a few roars, presumably Zhen Yin used special means.
Whether he can escape alive, Li He doesn't know, even if there is a paper order made by him, it will only increase the chance, and the rest will be left to fate.
As for himself, he glanced at the charred corpse and looked at the pair of paper eyes, I am afraid that it will not work if he does not fight.
There were more and more corpses around, and soon they reached dozens, and they were still growing.
This cemetery is simply a paradise for this bad omen, and Li He decided not to wait any longer and tried it first.
He took out a few Dao talismans, the latest thunderbolt talismans he had obtained from the caravan, they were extremely powerful, comparable to dozens of fire talismans, and hung on a ball made of ancient iron and threw them at the charred corpse.
Li He ran the breathing method, his hand was extremely strong, and the ball was comparable to the speed of an arrow, but he didn't get close to the other party, and several white bone corpses moved over and rushed towards him at the same time, and the two happened to collide.
Suddenly, a burst of fire erupted, igniting the two white bones, and the red flames burned the soil black.
But what was unexpected was that Bai Gu paused and continued to walk towards Li He, burning the flames, and the viscous darkness in his body subsided slightly, but there was no essential effect.
Seeing a step away, the two skeletons straightened their bone sticks and stabbed at Li He.
Li He took out the short knife he carried with him and slashed down, cutting off all four skull arms without the slightest drag.
This short knife is made of ancient iron, and it is smeared with human venom, which is very sharp.
Suffering from the erosion of the venom of the human face, the skeleton body slowly stopped, and the dark mist in the body came into contact with the dark green venom, and it was unexpectedly equal.
Li He took advantage of the skull to pause, raised his hand and cut off the skull with another knife, and the black mist in his chest gradually dissipated, scattering into a pile of skeletons.
Li He looked at the countless corpses around him, his brows furrowed.
The venom of the human face was invincible before, but now it seems so difficult to cut a skeleton, you can imagine the horror of this group of corpses, and its ability to resist the erosion of Dao power is even close to the weaker Nine Rank bad omen.
Of course, if there are strong points, there are weak points, if it is a bad omen of dozens of nine grades in front of him, then he doesn't have to fight at all, just run away.
The corpse moved slowly, and when his breathing method was fully open, he could still easily avoid the opponent's attack. Although he is not afraid of flames, he does not have such a hard body in the face of Dao soldiers made of ancient iron.
However, this is just a kind of skeleton corpse in front of him, and the other two corpses are obviously different, especially the scorched corpse that has stood in place and has never moved, faintly revealing a strange aura.
But Li He also had some numbers in his heart after fighting. This bad omen may be similar to the bad omen in Kiln Village, it is not an individual weirdness, but a way to vent its bad way through manipulation.
Of course, if you think it's weak, then it's ridiculous. This scorched corpse will only be stronger, because the source of all the bad omen that revives the corpse is the rich breath of death on its body.
Li He was not prepared to wait, otherwise he would be surrounded by these dozens of corpses, and he would not be able to escape. What's more, his purpose is not to clean up this eight-grade bad omen, he is not so arrogant.
In the end, there is only one goal, and that is to get the paper.
After taking a step, he flew forward, like a stray arrow.
As soon as he moved, the red *** came around, and he spilled a charm, this time it was a water sinking charm, although it was very ordinary, but with the venom of the human face, the effect was doubled.
Suddenly, a miserable green mist descended on the surroundings, dripping on the red ***'s body, like corroded sulfuric acid, wearing down his body.
But regardless of them, they still grabbed Li He's body, and then a layer of dazzling light flashed, and the thorn armor manifested in vain, and after only resisting a few scratches, it was shattered.
What's even more terrifying is that the red hair breeds, has a strong toxicity, and all the thorns that touch it turn red and rot. Thanks to Li He's body, if mortal flesh and blood touched these monsters, they would have been melted away long ago.
He turned his hand into a paper knife, directly smeared the venom on the human face, slashed and killed the red ***, one hand and five fingers, and now gave birth to seven or eight blades, stabbing into the zombies' bodies and splitting them into pieces.
About six or seven zombies fell to the ground, unable to move.
But before he could take a few more steps, the corpses draped in rags rushed up to stop Li He.
He didn't keep it anymore, his whole body was papered, exuding an aura of chaos, and his eyes became pitch black, staring at the corpse in front of him.
Not only that, a few meters around, there is a faint fragrance of tea, and there seems to be a human face on the paper body, although there is no Dao power, but the paper body is blessed a lot, no matter how the other party collides, the attack that can smash the rock with one claw is ineffective against Li He.
Holding an ancient iron knife, with a human face venom, the corpse blocks and kills the corpse, and the nightmare blocks kills the night, at this moment, he is almost the embodiment of the bad omen.
Even the corpses that didn't come over were much slower, and they naturally did not produce fear, but belonged to the natural suppression of the aura of bad omen.
This is the so-called square inch land, the country of bad omens.
In the real mountains, auspicious and bad omen coexist and can bless each other. And in the realm maintained by the catalogue, it is like its own Dao country, no matter what the bad omen, it will be suppressed to a certain extent.
Of course, the most ruthless is the direct erosion of the catalogue, which is irreversible and beyond the level of suppression.
Just like the suppression of the source of the paper maid at the beginning, Shenrui was able to rely on a single trick to condense the source of the bad omen, which shows the gap in its essence.
But when he came to Li He, he could only rely on his own Dao power, relying on bad omen and auspicious rui to suppress the new weirdness, and how big a stomach he ate and how much bread he ate, so it was very easy to cause backlash.
However, if this last move is not carried out, relying on the checks and balances of the Dao Kingdom alone will barely be enough.
All he had to do was get close to the charred corpse, take the paper, and then run away. From the very beginning, he didn't think about fighting hard with the other party, whether it was the horror of the bad omen of the Eight Grades, or the rest of the weird methods, he was not sure enough to bear it.
Therefore, buttoning down the paper and separating them is Li He's idea.
It wasn't a fantasy, as he sensed that the way the charred corpse controlled the paper was more like suppression than complete fusion.
After getting closer, the situation that Rui Xi Dao noticed was obviously different in his eyes. Coupled with the desire for shredded paper drawings in the catalogue, he understood that the current paper catalogue was actually closer to him.
It's like like like gathering like and people by group, paper is part of the puzzle of bad omens, it longs to find the most perfect body, and it naturally has a drive to achieve the best.
Why did Liu Ruhua obey Li He, in fact, he didn't control the other party's thoughts at all, but the erosion of bad omens caused Liu Ruhua to have a wonderful perception, Li He was the biggest temptation to her, so she was so eager to get Li He.
However, it has the effect of suppressing the catalogue, and she can't swallow this master's hunger, so she can only stick out her tongue and lick it to relieve the emptiness in her heart.
Moreover, Li He is very suspicious that Liu Ruhua's state is unstable and can only be peeled off, which may be related to the lack of paper in shredded paper paintings.
He remembered that Liu Wu described that the little guy in the team was obsessed, and since the bad omen could do it, it stands to reason that Liu Ruhua, who had inherited all of them, should also do it, but some key things were missing.
Li He traveled all the way, slashing the surrounding corpses in pieces, with the blessing of the Dao Kingdom, his Dao power is infinitely close to the eight-grade bad omen, although these corpses are weird, they still can't stop him.
However, the hidden danger is that the bad omen in the catalogue has begun to be a little restless, and after a while, I am afraid that the backlash is coming, and I have to dig out the paper before that.
Just when he was close to the distance of the charred corpse, the other party finally moved, exuding the smell of burnt barbecue, and a pair of strange green eyes stared at him, emitting breathtaking fluctuations, but Li He's dark eyes also did not contain any emotion.
He knew that shredded paper drawings had a controlling mind, but he was not afraid at all.
This time, he didn't take a knife, he didn't think that Gu Tie could slash the scorched corpse, but stuck a piece of paper with two fingers, which was stamped with the seal of the national order.
"The edict is pro-approved, and the evil is punished!"
As long as the talisman is pasted on the scorched corpse's brain, and the domain of the Dao Kingdom around his body is formed to form a short suppression, he will have a chance to take out the paper.
But seeing that the paper was only a paper away from the door of the scorched corpse's head, Li He suddenly stopped his movements, his face frightened.
He remained motionless and froze.
It's not that he doesn't want to move, it's that his body is controlled by a strange force that makes it difficult to move.
He stared at the charred corpse in front of him, so close, only to find that the strange green paper seemed to be painted, through the thin layer of paper, in the dark eye sockets, completely reflected a shadow, it was a yellowed and decaying paper figure, standing in the middle of a group of corpses, cold and gloomy.
Li He finally understood the power of the bad omen.
Corpse control!
And for it, the paper figure is also a kind of corpse!
