Chapter 58: The Past (12)
After some trouble, the people came to a tomb. Xuan Yi took out the compass: "The photo in front of the tombstone is indeed Li Xudong, but when I look at the feng shui here, it is not like a good place to bury people, but it is a place where people have specially transformed the corpse.
However, it still has to be confirmed that Li Si and Li Qi dug up this tomb. ”
"Master, the soil here is very loose and the color is also very new, which means that it has been turned over recently, and I think it is empty nine times out of ten. ”
"If you are told to do it, I don't want you to think, I want to see it with my own eyes. ”
The coffin inside the pit was rotten and easily opened by the two of them, and there was black water in the coffin, but it was very shallow, and there was a humanoid imprint on it. The coffin constantly exuded the ugliness of corpses, which made everyone twitch their noses.
"Got it, you cover the coffin and fill it back with dirt. ”
"Ah, master, isn't this nothing to look for?" Li Si wiped the sweat on his head, and when he wanted to continue, he was gagged by Xuanyi's eyes.
By the time everyone returned to Li Gui's house, it was already night, and Hui Shen proposed: "You might as well go to Li Xudong's house tonight to find out." ”
"It's okay, anyway, it has been determined that Li Xudong has been transformed, but he still has to prepare something so that he can't escape from the Li family. Li Si, Li Qi went to buy some yellow paper and cinnabar, and had to bring a few fishing nets that could bind people. ”
"Master, it's night now, people have already closed their stalls and gone home, how can anyone sell these things at night?"
"Engong, I have it at home, I live on fishing nets on weekdays, and now if you want to use it, take it first. Xuan Zhen was not polite to Li Gui, but insisted on giving him the same money: "If you don't accept me, I won't use your things, I'm a very straightforward person, bartering things, don't say those things, so be it." ”
"Hey, it's all up to Engong. ”
"That's right, old noble. Do you know how many people there are in the Li family?"
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be thirteen, the old lady is dead, leaving only the old lady and his two concubines plus a daughter-in-law, who are the original members of their Li family. Six male servants and three maidservants. ”
"Don't you have any other heirs?"
After Li Xudong's death, he never heard that the old lady left other heirs, and even his daughter-in-law was not pregnant. ”
"Li Si, Li Qi. You two have taught me that you have to prepare for the worst in whatever you do, and if the worst is beyond your reach, you have to think about a back path, a way to be reborn, and if the result is within your acceptable range, then you have to hone your plan a thousand times and try to be foolproof.
Before doing things, you have to prepare the tools to do things, don't do porcelain work without that diamond, sometimes your failure may affect more than you, do you understand. ”
"Got it, master. Li Si disappreciated, and tied the copper coins soaked in black dog blood to the fishing net.
Xuan Zhen next to him shook his head helplessly and continued to write the talisman, and it was already midnight when everyone had prepared all the tools. Outside the door rang out the voice of the groomer:
"Second watch!"
"It's almost time, we have to go, I'm sorry for you, old expensive. ”
"You're welcome. ”
The boy who fell into the water kept waving his hand to Li Si and said goodbye solemnly.
"After going over the wall and getting in, first find the zombies according to the instructions on the compass, and then find a way to tie up the thirteen people. ”
After everyone climbed over the wall, they found that the needle on the compass was turning wildly, and then stopped in the dark depths ahead.
"I knew you were going to make a move tonight, hehehe. The old man was supported by two middle-aged women wearing cheongsams and appeared in front of everyone: "After Li Zhongwen killed the county order family more than ten years ago, this place seems to have been forgotten, and no force has sent officials here, do you know why?" The rest of the people also held their knives and stared at the people who passed over the wall.
"Ahem, the old man just wants the old man's son to come back, that's all, why do you want to hinder the old man?"
A figure in front of him appeared in front of Zhang San and the others a little stiffly in the dark, and the mask made of copper coins made of copper coins made it impossible for everyone to see his face clearly.
"Although the old son accidentally killed a few people a few days ago, there is no need to be so popular, after all, according to what the gentleman said, people are the head of a hundred spirits, and absorbing their blood can restore the softness of his body, presumably the two heavenly masters should know this, cough cough. Li Xudong, who was wearing a copper coin mask, stood motionless beside the old man, like a wooden man.
"You're allowing this zombie to kill just because of that, aren't you?"
"He's just an old son, and now he doesn't have much time left, and he just wants to spend more time with his family, and he doesn't want to make extraneous branches, so why not make a price. The old man kept coughing, and the woman next to him kept reassuring him:
"Everything in this world has its corresponding price, and the conditions are often not negotiated because the other party does not give enough chips, or does not reach the value you expect in your heart. In this troubled world, money can buy food, can buy women, can buy everything you want. A businessman can take risks for several times the benefits, let alone someone in despair. Even if you want to be old and bankrupt, you are willing, as long as you step out of this door, tomorrow you will become the richest man in Qingshui Town, ahem. How?"
Zhang San slowly stood up: "It is true that money can make ghosts grind, but there should not only be values of things in this society." The experiences of people since childhood, and the fine traditions inherited from the previous generation of teachers, should also be passed down like a spark.
They see the world as a scale, and they should feel uneasy and guilty about not being able to achieve balance or going against their view of the world, I don't know when you became unscrupulous for money, but not everyone sells their soul for money like you. ”
"Zhang San is right, this zombie has to be destroyed here no matter what, don't speculate more than half a sentence, if you want to resist, don't blame us for not reminding you. Xuan Zhen pulled out the peachwood sword behind his back and pointed at the old man and said sharply.
"Ahem, when a person tries in every possible way to serve the people, you are not here, and when he is squeezed out by all the merchants, the people do not care, ahem. You weren't here when the prefectural magistrate threatened him to pay the so-called management fee.
If you want to clear the ripples without demons, you must first learn to join them in the mud, but even if you have a conscience and want to turn back, you will watch in horror as the latecomers push you forward, and when you do the extreme, you will look back, you and the mud have long been integrated and can no longer be separated, the reputation of the outside world, the interests of the inside, and the supreme power will make you nostalgic for it, you are still too young, cough cough.
Let me ask you, if you don't have money, monk, how can you make a Dharma weapon to eliminate harm for the people?"
"Cultivating the Buddha first cultivates the mind, and crossing others first crosses oneself. ”
"It is only our duty to eradicate harm to the people, and we will never take the slightest charge for it. It is useless to say more, and you will not be able to stop us, so we will be arrested. ”
"The tongue that has been wasted for so long is finally ready, ahem. ”
Li Xudong's daughter-in-law walked out of the darkness in the distance, holding a gossip mirror in her hand and shining on Li Xudong's body, Li Xudong, who was illuminated, gradually moved, he ripped off the copper coin mask on his face, and the abnormal canine teeth protruded out of his lips, and his dry face looked particularly hideous.
At this moment, Li Xudong bit the old man's neck, and the severe pain made the old man cry out, and the people around him were stunned by this scene, followed by the old man's two concubines, and finally Li Xudong stabbed his hand into his daughter-in-law's heart and slowly pulled out.
The family and the maidservants ran behind Xuan Yi and the others in horror, and some people had already opened the gate and fled.
The old man lying on the ground and dying asked painfully, "Why is this happening, you.... But my son...", and then he lost his life.
"Li Xudong's soul has long since dissipated, this is just a corpse with only instinct, the Yin Twisting Bagua Mirror can indeed control the corpse, but the zombie that has sucked human blood will lose control after being irradiated again. The reason why man is called man is because man's willpower can suppress instinct, otherwise what is the difference between him and beasts, everything has its own certainty. ”
The zombie turned around and looked at the people holding weapons in a daze, and then rushed towards them regardless of the blood stains on their bodies. Li Si Li Qi did not hesitate to throw out the fishing net tied with copper coins in his hand after seeing it, and the zombie tied by the fishing net sounded the sound of explosion, Xuan Yi quickly stepped forward after seeing it, and the copper coin sword stabbed into the body of the zombie.
The peachwood sword that was speeding in the sky also took advantage of the situation to attack, and the battered zombie roared and broke free from the shackles of the fishing net, pulled out the copper coin sword and threw it on the ground, and then took the attack of the peachwood sword and approached Li Si to try to kill him.
After smelling the smell of corpses and blood mixed with the zombies at close range, Li Si almost fainted, Li Qi blocked his attack with a steel sword: "Li Si, what are you doing!"
The zombie was instantly attracted to it, and Xuan Yi next to him shouted: "Li Si, tie him up with a fishing net." ”
Li Si was blank at this time, frozen in place. The zombie swept over Li Qi and quickly disappeared into the night.
"It's a shame that this can also let him run away. ”
Li Qi picked up Li Si's neckline: "Do you know what you're doing? It doesn't matter if you hurt yourself, don't hurt the master, uncle!"
"I knew that such an old man would have taken action, but no one expected that the zombie would be able to break free from the fishing net and be so fast. Monk Huishen stood up from the corpse and stopped chanting the Sutra of the Past Lives.
"This matter is indeed our negligence, it seems that the masked man and the Li family really have some kind of connection, but the top priority at the moment is to wait until dawn to make the truth public and then find a way to find him. ”
"From now on, the Li family will cease to exist..."
