When I came to the town at the foot of Moshan, it was already dark. Yun Wuxian found an inn, rested for the night, and hurried tomorrow.

Yun Wuxian found a cheap inn, and when he left Moshan, he didn't have much money on his body. This is a long way to go to 'Taoyuan Village', he must save money and frugality, otherwise he will starve to death if he can't get to 'Taoyuan Village'.

Cheap inns are relatively poor in terms of accommodation. Fortunately, Yun Wuxian has been used to suffering since he was a child, and it is good for him to have a place to live.

Entering the guest room, Yun Wuxian put the bamboo basket under the bed, and he lay on the bed and fell asleep. In the middle of the night, Yun Wuxian was woken up by the cry of Bai Ling under the bed. Yun Wuxian remembered this time that he only cared about sleeping and forgot to feed Bai Ling.

Yun Wuxian came to the front hall, and the shopkeeper was dozing off on the counter.

"Dangdangdang......" Yun Wuxian slammed the table hard.

The shopkeeper was woken up by Yun Wuxian, he suddenly raised his head, rubbed his eyes, saw Yun Wuxian clearly, and remembered that he was a guest who stayed in the hotel before.

"Guest, do you have anything to do at night?" asked the shopkeeper.

"Do you have anything to eat here?" asked Yun Wuxian.

The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "Guest officer, it's time for the third watch." The masters are all asleep. Where's the food? You will endure for a while, and breakfast will be served at dawn. ”

"It's not that I'm hungry, it's my ......" Yun Wuxian thought that if he said Bai Ling, the shopkeeper would spread it, for fear of causing unnecessary trouble. Yun Wuxian hurriedly interrupted and said, "You don't care about it so much. Just bring what you can eat here. ”

"Guest, I really don't have no food here. Otherwise, you go out and turn left, go straight for 300 meters, and then turn right. Where there is a liquor store, it is open all night. Where do you go to buy food? ”

According to the shopkeeper's instructions, Yun Wuxian did a stick of incense, and really saw a wine shop, and the lantern at the door of the wine shop was still on. Yun Wuxian entered the store, but there was no one in the store.

"Is there anyone?

After a while, an old man came out of the back room. The old man was so old that Yun Wuxian couldn't guess his real age. But from the staggering walking posture, Yun Wuxian could see that the old man was about to enter the earth.

"Boss, I want two catties of pork. Yun Wuxian said.

"What did you say?" the old man walked up to Yun Wuxian, put his hand to his ear, and said loudly, "You are louder, I can't hear clearly." ”

"I said, I want two pounds of pork. Yun Wuxian put his mouth on the old man's ear and roared loudly.

Only then did the old man hear it. He nodded and said, "You wait here, I'll get it for you." ”

The old man trembled back to the back room. Yun Wuxian saw an idle stool next to him, and he sat down. After waiting for a while, the old man hadn't come out yet, and Yun Wuxian was a little impatient. At this moment, a man came in from outside, dressed in black clothes and wearing a hat on his head.

Yun Wuxian saw that the posture of the man in black walking was very strange, and he couldn't help but take a closer look.

The man in black stood at the door of the inn, like a stake, motionless.

"You're here for dinner?" Yun Wuxian said, "The boss has gone inside, you can sit down and wait for a while." ”

The man in black was still standing in the doorway, motionless.

Yun Wuxian thought that another deaf man had come, and he didn't hear his own words. He thought that Feng Aya'er had warned himself that when he went out, he tried not to provoke right and wrong. Therefore, seeing that the man in black ignored himself, Yun Wuxian ignored the man in black.

After another half of the incense, the old man still did not come out. Yun Wuxian couldn't sit still, he got up and entered the back room.

Yun Wuxian pushed open the door, and the scene in front of him made Yun Wuxian shocked.

Two people were lying on the old man's body, devouring the old man with their teeth, and the old man's neck had been bitten off, and blood was flowing all over the ground. One person was gnawing the old man's arm with his teeth, and the other was gnawing at the old man's face.

The sound of Yun Wuxian pushing the door alarmed the two people, and the two raised their heads, and Yun Wuxian saw the hideous face, sharp teeth, and blood on the teeth.

"Hell......"

Yun Wuxian shouted, turned and ran out. When he arrived at the door, the man in black suddenly stretched out his hands and put them on Yun Wuji's shoulders. A gust of wind blew the man's hat away. Yun Wuxian saw that the man in black was the same as the two people in the inner room, his eyes were big and blank, his face was stiff, his lips were black, and his two sharp teeth were exposed.

Before Yun Wuxian could react from his shock. The man in black opened his mouth and threw himself towards Yun Wuji's neck. Yun Wuxian used all his strength to push the man in black away, and he turned around and ran. The man in black rushed out of the room and chased after Yun Wuji.

"Someone, help. Yun Wuxian shouted.

There was no one on the whole street, and Yun Wuxian ran for a while, he was tired, and bent down to gasp for air. When he gasped twice, he turned his head and saw that the man in black had already chased after him.

Yun Wuxian straightened his waist and ran again. The man in black was right behind him, following closely. After running for half a pillar of incense, Yun Wuxian saw a firelight in front of him, and he ran towards the firelight like a drowning man who saw the straw. After walking in, Yun Wuxian saw that it was a shop that struck iron.

"When, when, when......"

There are still people striking iron. Yun Wuxian ran into the shop, gasping for breath, he saw a water tank next to him, so he put his head into the water tank and drank water. After drinking a stomach full of water, Yun Wuxian was satisfied this time. He wiped the water stains from his mouth and looked back, but the man in black did not chase after him.

Yun Wuxian saw that the person who struck the iron was about the same age as Feng Blacksmith. He clenched his fists and said, "Uncle, I'm bothering you." ”

"Running in the middle of the night. You've met a man-eating zombie. The blacksmith said.

Yun Wuxian was taken aback. He walked up to the blacksmith and looked the blacksmith up and down with his eyes, but Yun Wuxian didn't notice anything unusual about the blacksmith. The blacksmith said coldly: "Don't look at me like this, I am a human, not a zombie." ”

"How do you know it's zombies chasing me?" asked Yun Wuji.

"In the middle of the night, who else but zombies chase you?" said the blacksmith, "your life is not bad." You didn't get bitten by a zombie, otherwise, you'd be a zombie by now. ”

"Uncle, what the hell is going on?" Yun Wuxian asked, puzzled, "I'm hungry." Why did you come across zombies when you came out looking for food? Could it be that there are zombies here all year round?"

"If there are zombies all year round, are there any living people here?" said the blacksmith, "and only half a year ago, zombies appeared this time. ”

"This is at the foot of Mo Mountain, how can there be zombies?" Yun Wuxian asked puzzled, "Didn't you go up to Mo Mountain, find the head of Mo Xingzi, and react to this matter?"

"Absolutely. The blacksmith said, "The head of Moshan also sent a few disciples down the mountain to subdue the zombies. However, the disciples who came were all dead. Later, no one came. ”

"Since you know there's zombies here, why don't you run away?" asked Yun Wuji.

"Those who can walk have long since left. Don't you see? Those who remain here are old, weak, sick and disabled. These people have lived here all their lives, where do you let them go? Anyway, they won't live long. It's better to die in your own home than to die outside. Anyway, this is where we belong. ”

Listening to the blacksmith's words, Yun Wuxian remembered that the inn where he stayed had no other guests besides him. There is also the shopkeeper, who looks like life and death have nothing to do with it. Come to think of it, the people who stayed here saw it.

"But, just now the zombies were still chasing me here. Why don't you chase after it?" asked Yun Wuxian .

"Zombies are afraid of my fire. "That's why I'm staying here." As long as the furnace where I strike iron is not extinguished, the zombies will not dare to come. Look at me, I've been here for half a year, and I'm not safe and sound. ”

He turned his head to look at Yun Wuxian and asked, "Young man, you are not a local. ”

"I'm passing through here. Yun Wuxian said.

"You go to Moshan?" asked the blacksmith.

"Uncle, why do you say this. ”

"It's in the middle of nowhere, and people don't come here unless it matters. Of course, there is only one purpose for such a person, to go to Moshan to seek the Tao. However, I advise you not to go. The Taoist priests in Moshan can't even surrender zombies, and it's in vain if you go. ”

Although Yun Wuxian was no longer a disciple of Moshan, he felt uncomfortable listening to the blacksmith's words humiliating Moshan. In order to prove it to the blacksmith, Yun Wuxian secretly decided that he must surrender the zombies.

Yun Wuxian thought that the only spells he knew were the Imperial Sword Technique and the Flying Sword Technique. And he didn't have a sword on him. So I will take some pieces of silver from my body and give them to the blacksmith.

"Uncle, you can make me a long sword. Yun Wuxian said.

The blacksmith looked at Yun Wuxian and asked, "Do you know martial arts?"

"Not only do I know martial arts, but I also know a little bit of magic. Yun Wuxian said, "To be honest, I just came back from Moshan." Since zombies are harmful, I can't ignore them. ”

"You're a mage?"

"Sort of. ”

The blacksmith shook his head and said, "Young man, you are too young to joke with your life." Previously, the few people who came were all mages. They confidently went to subdue the zombies, but the result was not that there was no return. I feel that only wizards and grandmasters can subdue zombies. You little mage, don't take any chances. ”

"You're underestimating me. also underestimated the disciples of Moshan. Yun Wuxian said, "To deal with zombies, you don't need to make a move from the masters." All you have to do is build me a sword. Whether or not I can subdue the zombies is my business. Even if I was eaten by zombies, it had nothing to do with you. ”

"I'm saying this for your own good, young man. You can't help but appreciate it. The blacksmith said.

"I appreciate your kindness. Yun Wuxian said, "Hurry up and build me a long sword." ”

Yun Wuxian threw the silver to the blacksmith. The blacksmith shook his head, put away the silver, and forged a longsword for Cloud Traceless.
