Chapter 1007: Reunion
Calm down, must be calm!
I forced my brain to cool down, pondering how these gray-skinned zombies came to be.
Their bodies, preserved in the most collapsing fired stone pillars, have skin of the same color as the pillars.
This also means that they were already present in the stone pillars when they were fired.
The zombie's mouth and nose are blue, and there is no sign of decay all over the body, which can be seen as a 'living corpse.'
The so-called living corpse is to suffocate a person to death by covering his face with clay before he dies, choking his last breath on his mouth and nose.
In the stomach of the dead, if there is the last *** qi, the resentment will be monstrous, and the flesh will be supported by the corpse qi and will not rot.
In the early years, there was this kind of corpse refining method in the human world, but later because it was too cruel, it was condemned as an evil sect, and some people practiced it.
Driving the corpse into the stake allows the pillar to penetrate the yin force from the inside out.
This yin force can be used as a protective barrier to block the energy fluctuations generated when the spirit crystal is mined.
I've only heard about the stake in the human world, but I didn't expect it to exist in the fairy world.
Since it is an ownerless soul, not an evil spirit, it is easy to do.
I sat down cross-legged, fingertips pinching the mantra and chanting the transcendent mantra softly in my mouth.
"The edict of the Taishang, the lonely soul of Chaoyou, all the ghosts, the four lives are entrusted."
"Kneel in front of my platform, gossip shines, Zhan Ru goes, and he is born in other places."
"The rich and the poor are called by you, and they are waiting for the multitude, and they are in a hurry to be born."
The transcendent spell sounded, and a group of gray-skinned zombies who were about to move stood in place as if they had been immobilized, raising their eyes to look at the sky at forty-five degrees, and their eyes gradually became clear from confusion.
They are a group of poor people, unjust souls who can't survive and can't die, and when they see an opportunity for detachment, they will not hesitate to rush forward.
Soon, a group of gray-skinned zombies spewed out a pale golden light from their mouths.
The light fell into the void's reincarnation disk and vanished without a trace.
The shells left on the ground began to decay rapidly, eventually turning into dust and vanishing.
More than a hundred gray-skinned zombies disappeared, and I breathed a sigh of relief and rested in the remnants of the collapsed corridor.
I don't know how Murphy is doing now.
I took out the communication jade slip with Murphy, and I was surprised to find that the original turbid jade slip had a faint crack.
The state of Jade Jane also represents Murphy's current situation.
Oops, Murphy is in danger!
I didn't have time to rest, so I took out the shovel again, gritted my teeth and began to dig to the side of the cave.
The earth and rocks in front of us collapsed, and we had to find another way out if we wanted to connect to the southwest road.
Wan'er's physical condition is better than mine, and she has taken on the main force of the excavation.
After a while, Wan'er's panting shovel opened the joint of the wall.
"My lord, I've dug through!"
I thanked me and immediately ran forward with the messenger jade slip in my hand.
In the dark, I had a hunch that Murphy was not far from me.
"Wait for me, sir!"
I ran in front, and Wan'er followed.
At the corner in front of me, there was a sudden whispering sound, and I immediately grabbed Wan'er, who was almost bumping into my head, and deliberately slowed down.
In the slightly wider corridor ahead, a group of men lay on the ground.
There were about two dozen of them, and they were lucky enough to be trapped near a spring.
The water flowed down through the gap overhead, dripping downward, and there was a crockpot underneath.
There was also a small car parked nearby, and in the car was a scone like a brick.
I estimate that these two dozen or so people are the ones who are shuttling through the mine and are responsible for transporting grain.
When the mine collapsed, it happened to be trapped here, and it ran into a place where there was a flow of water......
No, they have been shuttling in the mines all year round, and they only camped here because they knew that there was water here.
If nothing else, these twenty people can last at least more than forty days through the food in the cart.
In the waste pit next to it, more than a dozen corpses were thrown horizontally, and there were spots of blood on the ground.
The eyes of a group of people looking at me and Wan'er flashed with a treacherous light.
I immediately showed the Hidden Snow Spear and said in a cold voice, "Death to those who stand in my way!"
There are more than 20 people, and they are still a little jealous of me.
An old man patted the minecart, "Boy, I'll swap two pieces of bread for the woman behind you."
"No."
"Five."
I didn't talk nonsense, took out a thunder charm from my waist, and shook my hand right at the center of the old man's eyebrows.
A thunderbolt flickered, and the old man fell to the ground and pulled out.
Without the blessing of spiritual power, my thunder spell is only enough to deal with a weak old man, and if it is against a strong man, it can only be temporarily paralyzed and slightly injured.
A thunderbolt scared more than two dozen people enough.
If you were an ordinary person, you would have been sifting chaff for a long time, kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy.
The outlaws who have been in the mining area all the year round, while being afraid, subconsciously grabbed the weapons behind them.
At this moment, Wan'er and I are on the verge of physical exhaustion, and we must not be here to break out another battle with these people.
As I was killing, I threw out a bag of jerky, "Get out of the way, get out of the way!"
They had eaten coarse grain cakes for more than ten days, and when they saw the jerky, their eyes immediately turned green and they pounced on them to snatch them.
While they were snatching, I dragged Wan'er forward quickly.
As I walked forward, I kept using my soul power to observe the group of people behind me.
They had already divided the jerky and were curled up in the corner like rats, creaking and chewing.
"How long will that girl in there last?"
"It's been eight days without food or drink, and you can still kill people, so the murderous girls are amazing, we have to wait at least three more days."
"In my opinion, it will take five days."
"You're so cowardly. I'll try it tomorrow, and when I'm happy, don't be greedy."
"Big brother, can you let me have a second one?"
"Okay, you follow me in tomorrow!"
"I...... I'm still not going."
"Cut, coward."
From the whispers of a group of people, I could probably guess that there was a woman trapped in the cave.
Could it be Murphy......
Step by step, I approached, and the familiar aura became more and more intense.
Whoosh –
A dagger flew towards my façade, and I grabbed it easily because it was thrown too slowly.
"Get out!"
Hearing the familiar voices in the depths of the cave, my heart that had been hanging was finally completely relaxed.
Flames ignited from my fingertips and flung them to the sides of the hole.
The firelight illuminated the cave, and I saw a ragged Murphy standing with his back against the wall, a dagger in his hand, already close to his neck, ready to kill himself.
I smiled with relief, "Long time no see."
