Chapter 34: The Corpse Appears
In front of the Land Temple, the Minions looked at the scene in front of them in horror and inexplicably. Just now, when Ma Zhongqiu's divine soul was collected, he also felt a powerful force that made him almost suffocate.
It was a force he couldn't resist.
Even though the feeling was only fleeting, he was still in a cold sweat.
"Where's that guy's spirit?"
"I found a place to familiarize him with his condition." Lu Gong said truthfully.
The Minion took a deep breath and suddenly said unusually seriously: "Elm Pimple, how many secrets do you still have that I don't know?" ”
"What do you mean?" Lu Gong was curious.
"One box, how can it be the Dao of those cultivators." Thinking of the previous incident when Lu Gong let the villagers' souls out of his body, the little yellow man felt a little afraid, he felt that if he didn't ask clearly, maybe he would be accepted by Lu Gong one day.
This broken box, it can't really be the big guy, right?
"Honestly, I don't know why I'm doing that. Maybe it's talented. Lu Gong smiled and hurriedly changed the topic, "Now that the corpse is ready-made, we will have to wait for the rest." ”
"Don't be sloppy with me, say it quickly." Minions don't eat this.
Lu Gong was really helpless, and he couldn't explain it clearly.
"It's true that I'm just a box, not a cultivator. For these spells, I have only comprehended them in the past few days, so you can trust me that I will not harm you. ”
"How do I know you won't hurt me." The Minion snorted, seemingly dissatisfied with his reply.
Lu Gong was annoyed by his fire, and his heart moved, directly trapping him in the air.
The Minion's face changed drastically and he struggled desperately in the air. "Put me down, you white-eyed wolf......"
Lu Gong ignored him and kept letting him struggle in the air, thinking that he would be honest when he had no strength.
At this moment, the banyan tree suddenly had no wind and automatically, a rustling sound sounded, and a cold breath came to the face.
Lu Gong's heart moved slightly, and he suddenly stopped the Minion's voice. "Shut up, there's something coming."
The Minions floated in the air, not daring to move.
"Click, click......"
The sound of grinding against people's teeth sounded, and the Minion turned his head to look, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
Under the crescent moon, in the field outside Xiaokan Village, a ragged figure was speeding at a rapid speed.
Because of the blurred light, I could only see the extremely pale skin and the slightly arched body.
The Minion's heart instantly rose to his throat. If he hadn't been controlled by Lu Gong, he would have screamed.
"Corpse, it's a corpse!" He shouted in his heart.
Lu Gong also felt the change in his breath, which was an icy water vapor, as if the cold wind in winter was mixed with the howl of a wolf, like a ghost crying.
Wherever the corpses went, the sprouts that had just emerged from the ground withered instantly. The old banyan tree overhead seemed to be resisting something, and kept rustling.
The corpses swept across the fields and came to the Land Temple.
Lu Gong only felt that his scalp was numb, and a sense of déjà vu of watching a movie in his previous life came into view, and the dry but snow-white figure, in the dark, put his limbs on the wooden box, like a nocturnal hunter.
He cautiously turned his head to look around, and when he saw that there was nothing unusual, he immediately jumped to his feet, ready to jump directly into the wooden box and soak the corpse in the box.
The next moment, its body floated above the box as if it was pinched by something.
"Click, click......" it opened its mouth, and instantly let out a strange chirp.
Lu Gong instantly sensed that not far away, there was a commotion, and there seemed to be several figures lurking.
More than one!
The arrival of the corpse confirmed the thoughts in Lu Gong's heart. Quietly moving the Earth God to the sky, Lu Gong continued to control the corpse's movements.
After the corpse screamed twice, it immediately regained its silence and was sent to it by Lu Gong.
At this time, Lu Gong saw the true face of this thing clearly. It was still human, except that the spine had been completely bent, the limbs had become free of a trace of fat, and there were only pure muscles and flesh, and a pair of eyes were as white as the skin.
Legend has it that this thing absorbs water vapor and withers trees wherever it goes.
The drought is an ancient god, but it can make human corpses transform, and it has the characteristics of large-scale infection, coupled with the information obtained before, Lu Gong has already linked him to the infectious disease in his impression.
Or, they are transmitted in this way.
Now it seems that it is already eight or nine years old.
The arrival of these corpses is obviously to turn this corpse into a kind of corpse, and once infected, it will become like them.
They seem to have retained a certain amount of intelligence, and when they encounter danger, they will give strange warnings.
Seeing that the corpse was not far from his feet, the Minion trembled slightly.
For it, it was completely a monster, covered with flesh and muscles, and dressed in white armor, especially the speed that came over just now, which made it extremely frightened.
The Minions kept shouting in their hearts, thinking of asking Lu Gong to let him go quickly, but looking at this corpse, he didn't even have the courage to speak.
After a few warnings, the corpse quickly fell silent.
Lu Gong hesitated in his heart at this time. Now, he had two options, one was to trap the corpse and let them retreat, so that he could catch one corpse and help the land god complete the task, and with the remaining corpse, he could create a second corpse. The second is to let go of this corpse and let Ma Zhongqiu track it down, so that more corpses can be found.
Lu Gong preferred the second option, but he didn't have enough confidence now, because it was not clear whether the corpse had the same restraint method for this kind of divine soul.
If this is the case, not only will the tiger return to the mountain, but also harm Ma Zhongqiu.
As for letting the Minions track them, Lu Gong didn't dare to think about it. This guy is still shaking.
What to do?
Lu Gong was thinking about it, when suddenly there was a sound of "click, click" from the wooden box below. I don't know where the black liquid came from, but it spread out from inside the wooden box, and it spread all over the wooden box like a spring, spilling out.
So fast! Haven't you encountered it yet?
Lu Gong's heart was shocked, and he looked at it sharply, and found that in the black liquid, a white figure had already revealed a head.
Ma Zhongqiu has completely changed his appearance, his hair has fallen out, and the few flesh and skin on his body have disappeared, leaving only white muscles and bones.
He jumped to his feet, landed in front of the Earth Temple, shook off the black water on his body, and swooped down on the corpses in the air, as if to save him.
Almost at the same time, Ma Zhongqiu's panicked voice came from Lu Gong's mind. "What have you done to my flesh?"
"Can you sense the changes in your physical body?" Lu Gong hurriedly asked.
"I feel like it's angry, it's pounding." Ma Zhongqiu exclaimed.
Lu Gong's heart moved slightly, and he suddenly let go of the restrictions on corpses.
The corpse fell to the ground, seemingly unaffected, and rolled over to its feet, fleeing into the distance with its new companion in a flash.
