Chapter 405: An Unusual Living Corpse
After listening to the village chief's account, the two suddenly realized: "No wonder these living corpses are so hard, they don't look like ordinary people can refine them, they turned out to be lost."
"Is it common to lose a living corpse?"
The village chief shook his head: "How is it possible, I have lived to be eighty years old, and the first time I have seen an ownerless living corpse, I have only heard people talk about it before."
"Dare to ask what are the reasons for the loss of the living corpse?"
"I've heard people say that there are only two reasons why the living corpse has no owner, either the owner has died, the living corpse has lost control, and wanders all day long, or the owner takes the initiative to unravel the control of the living corpse, or the living corpse will eat the owner."
"Judging from the attitude of these living corpses in our village, they are not bloodthirsty, not like the third case."
"Is there a way to find the owner of the living corpse?"
Hearing Lu Yang's question, the village chief showed a tangled expression, his brows furrowed, and finally sighed. "Yes."
"Each corpse chaser will leave a unique mark on his living corpse, so as to declare that ***, these living corpses in our village have the same mark on their right hands and wrists, just like this."
The village chief squatted on the ground and drew three interlocking rings with his fingers, and in the middle of the rings was written the word "ghost". "If the owner of the living corpse were still alive, he would have the same pattern on his right wrist."
"Although I only have the peak of the second layer of Qi training, and my cultivation is limited, I studied under a great corpse chaser when I was young, and my teacher is the peak of the sixth layer of Qi training!"
"During my study with the teacher, I recognized all the patterns of corpse chasers in the surrounding counties, but none of them had a similar style, and as for the corpse chasers in other places, I had never seen them."
This is also one of the reasons why the village chief did not report the case, the living corpse was not left by the nearby corpse chaser, and even if the case was reported to the government, the government could not find the owner of the living corpse.
"Have you heard of the Corpse Chasing Sect?"
The village chief laughed: "I don't know the name of the Corpse Chasing Sect, thirty years ago, I was fortunate enough to see a disciple of the Corpse Chasing Sect from afar, he was really a young talent, far from being comparable to a person like me who even struggled to get started with the corpse chasing technique."
"Do you know the location of the Corpse Exorcist Sect?" "That's far away."
The village chief pointed to the west: "The Corpse Chasing Sect is the most central location in our barren state, and it is 80 million miles away from here all the way to the west."
Meng Jingzhou nodded: "It looks like we have to go for a few more days."
There is an old horse, 80 million miles is not far, he ran away from home, from the imperial capital to ask the Daozong, the distance is not more than 80 million miles, that is, a matter of a few days.
Go fast and slowly, it all depends on the mood of the old horse.
At first, Meng Jingzhou thought that the reason for walking fast was that the carriage chassis had a space formation, which could shuttle through the space at will and shorten the distance, but later he learned that the carriage was indeed a baby, but the reason why it really went fast was the old horse.
"Now that we know about the existence of the living corpses, can my brother stay overnight?"
"Okay, anyway, my wife died, and my children moved to live in the county, and your stay overnight is just a matter of adding two quilts."
The two rested and adjusted overnight in Jianshi Village, and the next day they bid farewell to the village chief and embarked on a journey.
"You two had good luck last night." The immortal fairy stretched, twisted his body, and stretched his muscles. Although the soul body does not have the concept of muscles and bones, it is customary to inherit a part after death.
"Good luck?"
"Yes, the group of living corpses you encountered last night were carefully refined by the Great Monk, that is, there was no one to command, plus the lack of yang energy, there was no strength to move, and you could rely on that pile of big steamed buns to maintain basic activities every day, otherwise you two would not be able to defeat that group of living corpses."
"If what I expected, those living corpses acting together will be enough to deal with a Merger."
"Merge period!" Lu Yang was taken aback, he only knew that the living corpse last night was solid, but he never expected that it would be exaggerated to the extent that he could deal with the merger period.
Even if Lu Yang didn't know the skill of refining a living corpse, he also knew that if he could refine a living corpse of this level, he must be a monk in the merger period.
This group of living corpses is a means of battle for the monks of the Merge Period, how can they be discarded at will
? Is there a combined level corpse chaser dead?
As soon as he thought of this, Lu Yang felt a chill.
Nowadays, everyone rarely fights fiercely, and there are few deaths between the merger period, not to mention how powerful the merger period monk is, and there are multiple life-saving methods, if it weren't for the big gap, such as the gap between his master's silent Taoist, the Great Elder, Qiu Jin'an and the ordinary merge period, it would be difficult for the merger period monk to kill another merge period monk.
Meng Jingzhou saw Lu Yang's face change slightly, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's wrong with you?" "You should remember that I have an immortal fairy living in me."
When the immortal fairy was resurrected, Meng Jingzhou was watching from the side.
Meng Jingzhou blinked his eyes and slapped his palms, revealing a look like he had just woken up from a dream. "Ah~ I remembered, you still have an ancient immortal in your body, what did the immortal say?"
「..... Wait a minute, don't care what the immortals say, why do you look like you just remembered?" "I can't be blamed for that."
Meng Jingzhou scratched his head embarrassedly, and counted with his fingers: "Mainly in my imagination, people who have ancient immortals in their bodies should have constant luck, use the ancient mutilated magic weapon as a weapon, master all kinds of shocking secrets, be familiar with a variety of cultivation methods, invincible at the same level, often have amazing words, have insights that should not be possessed at this level, and beautiful women throw them into their arms, go to the secret realm like going home or something."
"I don't think your usual behavior is like this, the only characteristic that meets the requirements is that you are invincible at the same level, but this is not a particularly conspicuous feature in our Dao Sect."
"Oh yes, you also know all kinds of ancient secrets that can only be used to bluff the Nine Shadows Sect." Lu Yang:
yes, I would like to know the reason too.
"What did the immortals say?"
"She said that the combat power of the group of living corpses we encountered last night was comparable to that of the Merge Period." Meng Jingzhou's pupils shrank, obviously thinking of the same question as Lu Yang.
How could a living corpse of this level be left out at will? Something unknowable must have happened!
"Find a big city and ask if there has been a battle, or if it has fallen during the merger period, it is impossible that there is no trace of this level of things."
Lu Yang nodded, he thought so too.
"By the way, since you have an Ancient Immortal living in your body, can you help me ask if her old man has a solution to my causal reaction?" Meng Jingzhou looked at Lu Yang eagerly, yes, there is no senior sister to help, and there are ancient immortals to help.
The ancient immortals have a lot of means, and it is not easy to solve the cause and effect backlash? "Asked.".
"What did she say?" "She told you to die." 「?」
