Chapter 64: The Grave of the Dead
After inspecting the two open stone chambers on the first platform, Zhou Qing walked into the open stone door on the opposite side of the stairs.
Walking down the corridor behind the door, he saw the second platform, which was basically the same size as the first platform except for the stone doors on the left and right sides that were closed.
When he came to the stone door on the left, Zhou Qing saw traces of prying on the crack of the door, and then he put the torch aside, stretched out his hand to pick up the stone door, and directly pushed the door open.
Behind the stone door, there is a stone room of the same scale as the two stone rooms on the first platform, but the coffin in this stone room is closed.
Coming to the wooden coffin, Zhou Qing circled around the coffin, and then he took out the illusion Wushuang, condensed a sharp short chisel, and pried the coffin lid open.
Pushing open the lid of the coffin, he saw a woman with red lips and white face, dressed in gorgeous clothes, and the clothes on this woman were exactly the same as those worn by the two zombies he had encountered last night.
"It's really a corpse tomb. Sighing secretly in his heart, Zhou Qing took out an ordinary fire talisman from the Qiankun bag on his side and pasted it directly on the woman in the coffin.
Then, after he pinched the trick and silently recited a few words of the spell, with the finger of his pinching hand, the rune paper ignited a flame, and the woman in the coffin turned into a cloud of ashes before the body was raised.
After burning an unrotted corpse, Zhou Qing took a closer look at the stone room, and without finding anything unusual, he walked to the door of the stone room on the right.
He tried to push the stone door of this stone room, but found that the stone door was closed too tightly, unlike the door with pry marks just now, which was easily opened.
After trying, he didn't open the stone door as he wished, so Zhou Qing didn't bother to force it open, but stood in front of the door and thought for a while, and then walked into the corridor behind the stone door that was originally open.
The stone door was closed too tightly just now, if he wanted to, he could open it, but it would take some effort, and at the moment, in this huge ancient tomb, there were many stone chambers like this, so Zhou Qing decided not to waste his strength to open the door first.
When he takes a look around this ancient tomb, if there are too many stone chambers closed like this, then he will find some village men to help pry open these doors, so that he can save a lot of trouble.
Seven or eight feet behind the corridor, there is a place that is very similar to the two platforms in front, and the stone doors on the left and right sides here are also closed.
Trying to exert force in front of the door, Zhou Qing found that the stone door was also closed too tightly, just like the stone door just now, it would take some effort to open it, so he gave up.
Passing through the third platform, when Zhou Qing walked from the corridor to the fourth platform, as soon as he walked out of the corridor, a figure rushed towards him.
"Roar~"
Seeing this, Zhou Qing hurriedly took a step back with his feet and took two steps back, and then he raised his foot and kicked hard, kicking at the pounced thing.
was kicked out by Zhou Qing, and the thing he grabbed was kicked out of Zhang Yuyuan, and by the light of the fire, he saw clearly that this was the zombie whose arms were cut off by him last night.
After being kicked away, the armless zombie bounced straight out of the ground and jumped into the corridor deep in the tomb.
"I let you go last night so that you could get out of this tomb, and today I see you still fleeing there. ”
Taking a step, Zhou Qing chased after him with a torch in one hand and a Phantom Two-Way female corpse in the other.
Chasing the distance of three more platforms, he condensed the Phantom Musou in his hand into a short spear with a sharp point, and threw it at the zombie that was already close in front of him.
The short spear in Zhou Qing's hand was unbiased, stabbing into the zombie's back 'brain' steadily, ruthlessly and accurately.
"Ah~"
The armless female zombie let out a final extremely complicated roar, and then fell to the ground, her corpse roar was unusually loud, like a wave, swinging through the layers of the ancient tomb, and at the same time floating outside the tomb through the entrance where Zhou Qing entered.
At this time, most of the villagers were still standing around the lake, and most of them shuddered after hearing the terrified roar of the corpse that suddenly came from the ancient tomb.
"Erdan, that cry just now was made by a zombie, right?" asked a young woman by the lake, holding the arm of a young black man.
"Naturally, it was made by zombies, how could the Taoist who went down to the tomb make that kind of sound. The young black man saw the panic on his daughter-in-law's face, stretched out his hand to comfort him, and the little couple left the lake.
After the earth-shattering corpse roar was issued, not only did the young couple leave the bottled lake, but many people also left the lake in fear and fear.
With the roar of corpses coming from the ancient tomb, many people by the lake were scared away, but a small number of people who were not so afraid remained.
Inside the tomb, Zhou Qing put away the Phantom Wushuang, reached out and took out a fire talisman from his side, burning the zombies that had lost their vitality under his feet.
"This tomb is too big and weird, and the corpses are rotting but not rotting, just waiting for the corpses to become stiff, I don't know who is buried here, and what is the reason for leaving these zombies. ”
Because when chasing the armless zombie just now, Zhou Qing saw several places that were the same as the platforms he had passed before, so he was even more curious about this tomb.
After he finished cleaning up the zombie and moved into the corridor, about to continue to the depths of the tomb, one of the sarcophagi placed in an underground plaza at the end of the corridor made a slight vibration.
The sarcophagus on the underground square moved, and Zhou Qing in the corridor was naturally unaware of it because of the distance, he continued to walk along the corridor, and after walking two more platforms, he was not far from the underground square.
At this moment, a low roar came from the square, accompanied by the sound of some heavy object hitting the ground and reaching Zhou Qing's ears.
Hearing the strange sound not far ahead, Zhou Qing frowned and rushed forward quickly.
Soon, he ran to the end of the corridor to the edge of the underground square, and by the light of the torch in his hand, he could see that it was quite large.
In the square, there are more than a dozen sarcophagi, and now, not far from him, there is a sarcophagus coffin lid that is falling to the ground and shaking from side to side, and not far behind the coffin lid, there is a tall and burly man staring at Zhou Qing who has just run to the edge of the square.
When he made eye contact with the burly man, Zhou Qing secretly exclaimed 'not good' in his heart, because the burly man did not have eyeballs in his eyes, but a whole patch of red.
According to the records in the wandering miscellaneous, zombies are also divided into cultivation levels.
For example, several zombies that Zhou Qing had killed before, they were all small zombies that ate blood, and the gap between them was not too big, and although they were stiff and hard, their body structure was still no different from ordinary people.
Therefore, against those little zombies, even if you don't use magic, you can easily get rid of them by simply breaking their bones and breaking their walks.
But at the moment, this red-eyed zombie is no longer a small zombie, this kind of zombie is called the corpse leader, and as the name suggests, it is the best of the corpses.
