[Chapter 135: Defeated Beast]
Qingyuyang's ancestor is named Qingyingying, who is the female official of Si Tianma, and is actually the highest ranking person in this small village, and now the mother-in-law who controls the whole village is her assistant.
Pegasi are docile by nature, but they don't want to get close to people, and only gentle and beautiful virgins can get close to them.
Qing Yingying became the keeper of the Pegasus under the Yan God King due to her peerless appearance and ability to communicate with the divine beasts, and was also allowed to live in the small village where the Yan King stayed when he was a child.
"Virgin?"
Li Chun touched his head, a little unclear, "How did you pass it on to future generations?"
Jixiang glared at him, and the green jade duck sighed and shook his head slightly.
"She can be said to be my aunt, but the sister of my ancestors of the previous generation, Yun Ying was buried in the tomb of King Yan before she got married, and every generation of the Qing family bears the responsibility of opening the tomb, and they are all women. ”
Guzu can also be regarded as an ancestor, although it is not born from the belly, but in the end there is also a blood relative.
The ancients attached great importance to blood, and since Qing Yingying is not married, even if she is a Qing family, she should enter the ancestral grave of the Qing family.
She raised Tianma, originally carefree, who knew that King Yan was old, he couldn't afford to be sick, and before he died, he didn't know how he had the wrong idea, and he wanted to let the courtiers, beloved concubines and people who served him be buried together!
For the young Qing Yingying, it is naturally a bolt from the blue, but even a high-powered prime minister, a general with military power, and a queen of the world cannot disobey King Yan's orders, let alone her little female official.
She can only ask Tianma to bring her suicide note back to the Qing family - although the king of Yan is powerful, he can't control those free beasts, originally Tianma wanted to take Qing Yingying away, but she was unwilling to abandon her partner and be the only child, and would rather choose a dignified death.
Her only wish at that time was just to one day. Be able to return to the ancestral grave of the Qing family.
But what I didn't expect was that death was not the end, but just the beginning.
After the burial, the entire Tomb of the God King was affected by the enchantment, or because of the unprecedented largesse, which triggered the conflict between Huangquan and Hongchen, in this ancient tomb. Forming the boundary between life and death, with the protection of 3,000 sword souls, these lonely souls and wild ghosts were not devoured by the evil ghosts of Huangquan, nor did they re-enter reincarnation, but walked on the ground forever, becoming undead zombies!
Qing Yingying is a person who is happy with what happens, and she doesn't feel ashamed or uncomfortable with being a zombie at first, but it's a pity that such a body can no longer raise Pegasi - in this ancient tomb, of course. At least in the second layer, there are no more divine beasts, and due to the restrictions of the enchantment, they can't leave this imitation village, and can only spend time leisurely.
I don't know how long it took for the decay and darkness that came from death to finally come to the fore.
"Evil" was born.
- No, to be exact, this "evil" has long existed in the original tombs. After King Yan's selfish decision to be buried alive, even if he had more treasures and ritual weapons. Nor can it stop the source of the "evil" created by resentment and hatred.
If it weren't for the suppression of the three thousand swords, the ancient tomb would have decayed and been swallowed by the Yellow Spring, but it was precisely because of the obstruction of the three thousand swords that these unspeakable evils gradually fermented and became terrifying existences.
"Stop...... Stop ......"
Li Chun could hear the clouds and mountains covered with fog. "Mother-in-law, what you said is too mysterious, I haven't understood it after so many years of education, this ...... What does that mean exactly?"
"What she means is that a terrible monster has appeared inside the tomb......"
The face of the green jade duck is like paper. It's not that I'm afraid, but I'm worried about my ancestor thousands of years ago.
Granny Zun said so much, obviously it is related to the whereabouts of Qingyingying Zuihou.
"Monsters?"
Is there a monster stranger than a zombie? Li Chun complained in his heart, but he didn't dare to declare it.
"What the hell is that monster?
Instead of worrying about the ancients, it is better to worry about the present.
"That monster, there is one in every layer, it has been suppressed by the famous sword for thousands of years, but it can't be destroyed, and it is naturally still there now?"
Granny Zun sighed and looked at the mountains and rivers in the distance, with a little fear on her face.
The monster that has been suppressed for thousands of years, she is still so afraid, and she can roughly imagine how terrible the monster was back then!
"It's okay to be suppressed. ”
Li Chun wiped the cold sweat from his head, and suddenly remembered again, "The first layer of the ancient tomb is also there, why haven't we seen it?"
The first floor was empty, as if there was nothing, neither the terrible monsters encountered nor the famous sword of suppression.
"Then I don't know. ”
Mother-in-law Zun shook her head, Jixiang glared at Li Chun angrily, and pulled his sleeve, "Young master, don't interrupt, the matter of the year has not been finished yet, so ...... What kind of monster was that? What happened next?"
"I didn't interrupt, don't you see that my question just now is the same as yours? It's just that the old woman didn't answer me......"
Li Chun also asked the same question, but Granny Zun only answered the second half of his question, and asked what the monster was, but she didn't answer.
"What kind of monster it is, maybe only Miss Qing knows, we ...... We are all useless people......"
Granny Zun said that tears were about to fall, and she bent down and coughed uncontrollably—if she hadn't known her zombie identity, she would have looked like a sad human woman.
"It turns out that zombies can cough too......" Li Chun muttered quietly, and the zombie girl Su Su reached out to help her mother-in-law in distress, and turned her head to glare at Li Chun fiercely.
Ji Xiang couldn't bear it anymore, and also twisted Li Chun's arm - although it was to stop Li Chun from talking nonsense again, this kind of intimate behavior still made her blush to the root of her ears.
- Anyway...... Anyway, in the eyes of Qingyu Duck, they are a little couple, which ...... That's it!
Granny Zun gasped for a while, and then she eased up, and with a sad look, she recounted to them the events of the year.
At that time, most of the current zombies in the village had not yet become conscious, but just wandered in a daze, and even many were manipulated by monsters and became accomplices, which is also the reason why Weishenme's mother-in-law wanted everyone else to leave.
Although it is not they who do evil. But the crimes committed by their bodies still make them unhappy.
The first to find the abnormality was Qing Yingying.
She was used to the life of a zombie at that time, and although she was lonely, she was also calm and calm, and she was free from the trouble of appetite every day, if she wanted to. You can bask in the "sun" on the hillside for several days in a daze, and it will not cause any harm to the body.
The change was discovered when she was basking in the sun.
The erosion of the Yellow Springs was silent, and the first thing to be affected was a living object.
The grass is beginning to wither
The leaves are beginning to wither.
The insects were singing less, and the birds in the forest were gone.
"I didn't understand it at the time. But Miss Qing began to look worried. ”
There are already a lot of people in the village, some of them have a hazy consciousness, some are still completely ignorant, Grandma Zun is one of the few people who have been more conscious, she noticed Qing Yingying's heart, but she didn't know how to help her at all.
Once depravity and decay begin, it will continue to intensify, and it will be difficult to turn back. Although Qing Yingying desperately cleaned up the grass and trees every day, and rescued birds and beasts. But it can't stop the momentum of decay.
Within a few years, the entire village had been covered in miasma, and most of the zombies had become ferocious and began to bite at everything they saw.
"And now?"
The situation is completely different now, and someone must have done something.
"Now Stony Creek Village can have today. It's all thanks to Miss Qing, if it weren't for her sacrifice, we would have been ugly and destroyed!"
Mother-in-law couldn't cry.
Zombies destroy everything, and then destroy themselves irrationally, or rather, they are irrational in the first place. They are the bells of time, monsters that should not belong to the yang world.
However, Qingyingying has changed that.
"I will never forget the events of those few days, and I will never forget what Miss Qing said to me. ”
"If I don't stop the Fallen Beast, this little village will be completely devoured by him......"
Qing Yingying's eyes flashed with determination, "In order to maintain the barrier of the Tomb of the God King, in the second layer, there is a divine sword, as long as I obtain this sword, I can kill the defeated beast, and this village can completely leave the corrosion of the Yellow Spring." ”
"You ...... There can be future corpses!"
After a long period of investigation, Qing Yingying discovered the reason why the village began to decay, that is, because the terrible breath of the defeated beasts hiding in the shadows formed a degenerate haze, the grass and trees came into contact with the haze and began to wither, and the birds and beasts came into contact with the haze and began to die of illness.
Although the zombie's body will not be affected by the Fog of Defeat, it will lose its remaining sanity and become a real beast.
The Yellow Springs are all shrouded in the mist of destruction, and when this mist invades a new place, it will gradually become a part of the Yellow Spring!
"She's talking about your ......"
The green jade duck was keenly aware of the peculiarities of the ancestors' words.
"You" instead of "us" means that Qing Yingying is ready to sacrifice and exclude herself.
Yes, she was originally used as a funeral object, so how could she be qualified to touch the divine sword of the tomb?
Even if she can borrow Liliang of the Excalibur to kill the fierce beast, she will inevitably be killed by the backlash, and her form and spirit will be destroyed!
The sword of the tomb on the second floor of the tomb has an elegant name, called "Peach Blossom".
This is the most famous contemporary swordsmith Gong Ge of Yan Guo when he was young, I heard that it is to commemorate his lost lover, the sword body is as red as a peach blossom, and there is a faint intoxicating aroma, but when he kills, he is silent, only to see the falling flowers on the ground.
It is buried under a peach blossom tree in the mountains, and in the long years, Qing Yingying will watch the flowers bloom and fall obsessively, and feel the young crimson that no longer belongs to her.
She couldn't get closer, and the evil aura of the Tomb Suppression Sword was enough to deprive her of her fragile life.
"In order to kill the defeated beast, she must go and get the Peach Blossom Sword!" (To be continued......)
