Chapter 1: The Wedge (II)
Flying stiff, with a wing membrane similar to a bat's wings, it is born to fly. As far as zombies are concerned, generally only high-level zombies that have cultivated for thousands of years can fly. Flying Zombie also has spells that have been handed down since ancient times for him to practice, so Flying Zombie is the most powerful kind of zombie. However, in Yang Xiaowu's impression, flying zombies are very rare, and he and his eldest brother have been zombies for more than 1,500 years, and they have only seen one flying zombie.
As for the wandering corpses, ambushed corpses, and non-bones, they can only be regarded as the lowest types of zombies. They have no mind, they are unconscious bodies, they cannot practice spells, and they rely on their instincts to act, which is commonly known as the walking dead. They feed on the blood of small animals such as rats and bats.
Zombies are distinguished by the color of their eyes according to the amount of energy, and can be divided into six levels. From high to low: red, green, yellow, blue, white, and black. Yang Xiaowu and his eldest brother have green eyes and belong to the second generation of zombies. Each level of zombies is made by the previous level, and the difference between each level is very different! This level cannot be surmounted, so the classification of zombies is very strict, if you want to upgrade to a level, you must absorb a certain amount of human blood, and a certain number of years of cultivation. Just as Yang Xiaowu and his eldest brother's eyes are green, it is because they were bitten by a marble and finally turned into zombies, and the marmos have red eyes. When the zombie energy reaches a certain strength, it can eat its own kind and turn the cultivation into its own to enhance its own energy.
Today, in the 21st century, due to the infiltration of human culture, zombies are also hierarchical, organized, and divided into races. Through cultivation, zombies can also be forged into demons and become drought. Although the zombies after becoming drought do not have the same wing membranes as flying stiff, they can also fly, swallow clouds, walk like the wind, and go thousands of miles of red land, which is said to be the king of zombies. Zombies that turn into droughts don't just eat blood, they eat their own kind. Yang Xiaowu and his eldest brother have seen it with their own eyes. The eyes of the marble are red, and the color is too familiar, like living human blood, full of **. However, they knew that it was a deadly **, and this color made people feel a chill from the bottom of their hearts.
After the eldest brother said this, he closed the ancient book, his face suddenly looked ugly, with a little resentment, mixed with a little loss, and finally shook his head helplessly, and said: "Do you know? There is such a flower in this world, which grows in the deep mountains and old forests, on the cliffs, absorbs the aura of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, and the petals are red, green, yellow, blue, white, black, and purple. This kind of flower is rare in the world, it only blooms a flower in one hundred and twenty years, it is not afraid of wind and rain, and the flower blooms for a year and withers, so it is called December flower. This flower can be eaten, but not eaten whole, and the whole body immediately swells and bursts and dies. Zombies can only eat the corresponding color according to the color of their eyes, and after eating, they can no longer suck human blood, which is no different from normal people, but still has the energy of zombies. After eating it, people will turn into zombies, and depending on the color of the petals they eat, the level of becoming a zombie is also different. ”
Yang Xiaowu never knew that there was such a flower in the world, and he thought that the eldest brother probably saw it from this book. Regardless of it, thinking that there was finally hope that he would no longer have to eat human blood, Yang Xiaowu couldn't help but get excited and said, "Then where can I find this flower?"
The eldest brother shook his head and said, "I don't know either!" However, according to the records in this ancient book, the last place where December Flower appeared was Xiangxi. The mountains of Xiangxi are continuous, the trees are dense, and the yin and yang qi are blended together, which is the best environment for evil spirits to absorb the essence of heaven and earth. And this year happens to be the 12th year, I think we can go to Xiangxi to have a look. ”
Yang Xiaowu nodded vigorously, and was about to ask the eldest brother when he would go to Xiangxi, when he suddenly thought of something again, and said: "Eldest brother, according to what you said, the petals of the December flower are red, green, yellow, blue, white, black, and purple.
The eldest brother's eyes couldn't help but darken, and with a little contemplation, he said, "As for whether that purple petal can be eaten or not, and what will happen if it is eaten, I don't know very well. Can only ......"
Before the eldest brother could finish speaking, Yang Xiaowu heard a strange sound, and then a black living creature swooped down from the roof in the corner. I saw it flutter its wings and go straight to the big brother. At the same time, a strong corpse aura instantly filled the entire room. When Yang Xiaowu came back to his senses, the eldest brother had already exchanged hands with the ball.
For the eldest brother's kung fu, Yang Xiaowu is very relieved. Although Big Brother's special function as a zombie is not reflected in physical arts. But with more than 1,000 years of cultivation, Yang Xiaowu believes that as long as he doesn't meet the first generation of Purple Zombie and Flying Zombie, ordinary zombies will not be opponents, let alone other demons and monsters. Of course, this is the case without taking into account the most aggressive of the zombies.
Yang Xiaowu knew his ability, although it was a second-generation purple zombie, it had no special functions, even if he was the best at physical arts, he could probably only deal with one or two ordinary third- or fourth-generation purple zombies. In this case, it's better not to go up, so as not to cause chaos to the eldest brother.
When the living creature pounced in front of the eldest brother, its wings were already folded, and its hands were stretched out, and one foot was kicking at the eldest brother. The eldest brother didn't expect that in his study, someone would suddenly attack him, and thanks to his quick reaction, he saw that the thing kicked over, and hurriedly reached out to block. Unexpectedly, the kicking momentum of that thing was so powerful that the eldest brother couldn't resist it, and was kicked by it and flew straight out and hit the bookshelf. In this collision, not only did the bookshelves all scatter, but the wall was also knocked out of a groove by the eldest brother, and it almost collapsed.
The eldest brother crashed into the wall, and a lazy donkey rolled and rolled into the middle of the study, escaping the attack range of the thing. When the thing saw the eldest brother escape, he immediately turned around, and a pair of green eyes were murderous, staring at the eldest brother deadly. At this time, Yang Xiaowu finally saw clearly that the living creature was the most powerful flying zombie among the zombies!
Yang Xiaowu knew that the thing turned out to be a flying zombie, so he knew that the eldest brother must not be able to beat it, but he didn't know whether he should go up to help. He knew that with his own level, it would still be a burden for his eldest brother to get it right. When Yang Xiaowu was at a loss, he saw an object flying towards him. He could clearly see that it was the ancient book! As soon as he reached out and took the ancient book, he saw the flying stiff rushing towards him.
Seeing that Fei Stiff abandoned himself, the eldest brother pounced on Yang Xiaowu, and immediately kicked his feet and also pounced on Fei Zhuang. The eldest brother knew that the flying stiffness was terrible, and he had already used all his strength to pounce. How did the flying zombie expect that a second-generation purple zombie would dare to take the initiative to attack him, and in surprise, he couldn't dodge, so he was pounced on by the eldest brother, and the two were entangled together and rolled to the corner. Yang Xiaowu saw that his eldest brother was hugging Fei Zhuang, and knew that the opportunity could not be lost, so he was about to rush forward while he couldn't move now, but he saw that he had sprayed a mouthful of spit on him. The green light floated in the saliva, and Huo Ran had a green bead mixed in it.
Yang Xiaowu didn't have time to think about it, caught the bead, ran to the eldest brother, and with a hard kick, he was raised to the top of the stiff chest. Although the flying stiff was restrained, he was not injured, and after being kicked by Yang Xiaowu, his eyes immediately widened and he looked at Yang Xiaowu deadly. However, this gaze immediately shifted from Yang Xiaowu to the ancient book in his hand.
Yang Xiaowu saw the stiff and covetous eyes, and subconsciously hugged the ancient book into his arms. At this time, the eldest brother suddenly shouted loudly: "Hurry up, bring the ancient books, don't let others snatch them." ......Quick, go find the December flowers! Poof......"
Before the eldest brother finished speaking, although the flying stiff was still being held by the eldest brother, he stood up at once, and hit his elbow the eldest brother's lower abdomen. The eldest brother was hit by the flying stiffness, and his stomach ached, and he immediately spit out a mouthful of blood. Yang Xiaowu was about to step forward, but he already saw that Fei Jian had broken free from the prison of the eldest brother, and grabbed the eldest brother's neck with one hand, and plunged the other hand into his chest. Even the eldest brother is not his opponent, Yang Xiaowu didn't dare to think about it, he was already scared to the extreme, knowing that if he didn't leave quickly, he was afraid that he would finally be killed by him. When he walked out of the door, Yang Xiaowu turned his head and saw that Fei Zhuang was frantically biting his eldest brother's shoulder, but his green eyes were clearly looking at him! The eldest brother's body shrunk into a ball, and he was tightly wrapped around Fei Zhuang's body, so that its wings could not be extended.
Yang Xiaowu didn't know how long he had been running, and he didn't know how far he had run, but he remembered that the eldest brother finally died, but it was not the way they expected to die. It's just a second-generation flying zombie, and it only took a few rounds to kill the big brother who was about to turn into a drought. Thinking about it now, the fear in Yang Xiaowu's heart is still only increasing.
Yang Xiaowu found a place to hide, confirmed that the flying stiff did not chase after him, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then took out the green bead and the ancient book that the eldest brother gave him. This bead was smooth and round, although Yang Xiaowu had never seen it, he was sure that this was the eldest brother's inner dan. Zombies have no soul, they are born from the resentment of heaven and earth, and are formed by the influence of the essence of the sun and the moon. Seeing this inner pill, Yang Xiaowu couldn't help but think of his eldest brother, and he would never see his eldest brother again. In the past, he still suspected that his eldest brother would eat him, but he didn't expect that his eldest brother would sacrifice himself to save me, he was wrong to blame his eldest brother!
Looking at the ancient book that the eldest brother gave up his life to protect, he couldn't help but grieve in his heart. Yang Xiaowu knew that the purpose of the flying zombie was this ancient book. The eldest brother died for this ancient book, and he wanted to protect this ancient book himself, and there must be some secret hidden in it! Yang Xiaowu secretly swore that he would definitely unlock the secret of this ancient book. And the December flower, which is the only hope he and his eldest brother have, has been a zombie for more than a thousand years, and finally has the hope of being a human again.
Yang Xiaowu raised his head and looked at the sky, he couldn't see a trace of light, and he didn't know how to go on the road in the future. has been a zombie for more than a thousand years, and he is used to seeing life, old age, sickness and death, and there is always a big brother who depends on him. Now that even the eldest brother is gone, the only thing that can accompany him is the eldest brother's inner dan, and an ancient book that he can't understand at all, and then there is the endless loneliness like the dark night, and the endless loneliness like life. Yang Xiaowu could only tell himself: go to Xiangxi, find the December flower, be a normal person again, experience birth, old age, sickness and death, and live happily for once. Even if it's just a day, an hour, or even a minute of life.
