Chapter 21: The One-Eyed Taoist
Ye Cangqiong didn't delay any longer, borrowed a big white horse in the stable of the county government, and whipped the horse quickly.
"Boom, boom. ”
There was still about a kilometer away from Guhuai Village, and the big white horse snorted white gas, stopped, and refused to take a step forward.
On the road leading to Guhuai Village, a one-eyed Taoist man with a dust whisk on his back, a Jiuyang scarf, and a gray robe sat cross-legged on the ground.
The one-eyed Taoist has a goatee, a sloppy face, and a gray Taoist uniform as if it has not been washed for a long time, and the smell on the one-eyed Taoist is very strange, it is a special taste that cannot be said and is unknown.
Ye Cangqiong's face was puzzled: "Daoist, why are you blocking my way?"
"Worldly people, the front is dangerous and abnormal, and the shore is turned back. I'm here to stop your path, because I don't want to see what happen to you. "The voice of the one-eyed Taoist is erratic, and has a peculiar rhythm.
"Dao Chief, I am a catcher from Qingsong County, and I went to Guhuaishu Village to handle the case, and I hope to be accommodating. ”
"Secular people, please go back, Guhuai Village, there is a blood light, don't stain the blood on your body. ”
"Dao Chief, the people in my six doors handle the case impartially, if there is really blood in Guhuai Village, our six doors will not sit idly by. ”
"Obsessed, since that's the case, then you can take care of yourself. "The old god of the one-eyed Taoist is here, still sitting cross-legged, closing his one-eyed, and no longer paying attention to Ye Cang.
Ye Cangqiong reluctantly jumped off the saddle and tied the big white horse to a tree in the neighboring Guhuai Village, bypassing the one-eyed Taoist man.
Then Ye Cangqiong strode towards Guhuai Village.
No dog barking, no rooster crowing, no vocals.
Guhuai Village is quiet, terrifyingly quiet.
It was noon, Guhuai Village, all the doors of the houses in the village were tightly closed.
And on the streets of Guhuai Village, it is even more empty, and the emptiness is terrible.
Ye Cangqiong faintly felt that there was a pair of eyes behind him, looking at him, but when he turned around, there was still nothing unusual in the ancient locust tree village.
Looks like I'm overthinking!
Ye Cangqiong stopped, his nose twitched slightly, and there was a faint smell of blood in the air.
The smell of blood is coming from the front!
Ye Cangqiong had an ominous premonition.
Came to Guhuai Village, the center of the village, a thick and tall ancient locust tree, jumped into view.
And in the body of this ancient locust tree, there is a humanoid corpse hanging upside down.
Ye Cangqiong rubbed his eyes and looked at it, this was the corpse of a black dog, because it had been hanging from a tree for too long, the corpse was too long, so it looked like a human corpse.
It's just a false alarm.
But the question arises, who will hang this black dog in the center of the village?
And where did the man who hanged the black dog go?
Walking around the ancient locust tree, Ye Cangqiong found another discovery, behind the ancient locust tree, there was a coffin with the coffin lid closed.
Listen carefully, there is a faint wheezing sound from inside the coffin.
Corpse fraud?
Ye Cangqiong's first reaction.
However, Ye Cangqiong quickly ruled out this speculation.
Inside the coffin, there is no smell of corpse decay, and the time is noon, the day is the strongest time of the day, during this time period, there is rarely a case of corpse fraud!
Inside the coffin, there may be a living person!
Thinking of this, Ye Cangqiong held the Black Water Sword in his hand and quickly split the coffin board.
Seeing clearly the appearance of the person lying in the coffin, Ye Cangqiong was taken aback: "Qiu Qian, why are you here?"
"Water, give me water. Qiu Qian, who was lying in the coffin, breathed weakly, and the corners of his mouth squirmed faintly.
Ye Cangqiong hurriedly unscrewed the spout in the marching kettle and poured white water into Qiu Qian's chapped lips.
"Ye Zhukuai, Shangfeng sent you over? I'm afraid only you can solve this matter. Under the moisture of pure water, Qiu Qian in the coffin regained some strength: "Ye Zhu, move me to a shady place, and then bring me something to eat!"
"Qiu Qianzhu, what happened in Guhuai Village? Who nailed you to the coffin?"
"It's a long story, but it's hard to explain. After drinking most of the pot of water and eating two dry foods, Qiu Qian's face was no longer so ugly: "Five days ago, I came to Huaishu Village to investigate the zombies of the previous dynasty, the villagers of Guhuai Village, one by one, were secretive, three days ago at night, I slept soundly in a villager's house, slept until midnight, and when I woke up, I found that I was in a coffin. ”
"At that time, I also heard the sound outside the coffin, which was the voice of the villagers of Guhuaishu Village. ”
"Some people say that as long as you follow the advice of the One-Eyed Daoist and use a living person to sacrifice the Corpse King and appease the anger of the Corpse King, Guhuai Village will be at peace. ”
"The one-eyed Taoist? Is the one-eyed Taoist you are talking about a goatee, wearing a strange green robe, and carrying a whisk of dust on his back. Ye Cangqiong said in surprise.
"Ye Zhukuai, my subordinates have never seen the one-eyed Taoist, and they don't know the appearance of the one-eyed Taoist, but this Guhuai Village is not a village in front of the village, there is no store in the back, it is sparsely populated, and there should be no other one-eyed Taoist. Qiu Qian's breath was weak.
"In this way, the one-eyed Taoist I saw was the one-eyed Taoist who instigated the villagers. This one-eyed Daoist, what is the purpose of doing this?" Ye Cangqiong frowned, puzzled.
"Ye Zhu, it's coming soon from the time when the corpse king appeared as the villagers said, I've recovered some strength now, we'd better escape from this place of right and wrong as soon as possible, right?"
In the clear sky, a cloud suddenly floated in.
The entire Locust Tree Village fell into darkness.
At this moment, a gust of wind rose inexplicably, and the dust and sand on the ground rolled, covering the sky and the sun.
Immediately afterwards, the five-meter-high locust tree in the center of the village collapsed, the earth sank, the soil cracked, and the dust and sand rolled.
A fiery red zombie slowly crawled out of the place where the locust tree fell, as if it was an endless abyss.
This zombie has hideous and terrifying facial features, dull eyes, is two meters tall, and has a fiery red body and red hair all over its body.
The fiery red zombie, with a dull gaze, locked the direction of the leaf firmament.
Then the red-haired zombie, stretching out two red iron claws, pounced in the direction of Ye Cangqiong.
Ye Cangqiong's expression was awe-inspiring, his figure moved, avoiding the zombie's attack, and then Ye Cangqiong's right hand black water sword stabbed the zombie's chest fiercely.
"Bang. ”
The Blackwater Sword stabbed into the zombie's chest as if it had stabbed a piece of hard metal, sending sparks flying everywhere.
And the zombie was hit by Ye Cangqiong's sword, and it was not affected in any way, and the red claws, like two sickles, swept towards Ye Cangqiong's direction.
"My lord, this zombie's body is sturdy, like an iron wall, ordinary weapons can't hurt this zombie, unless it's a high-level martial artist who infuses the long sword with true qi, in order to crack this evil thing, let's run away quickly." Qiu Qian saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly urged.
"Don't worry, I've been prepared. ”
Ye Cangqiong snorted coldly, and the true qi poured into the Black Water Sword, and the Black Water Sword faintly revealed a holy silver-white light!
"Demon Breaker"
A dragon roared and a tiger roared, and the long sword fell, slashing at the shoulder of the fiery red zombie, like cutting tofu, cutting off one of the zombie's shoulders.
Then, the fiery red zombie screamed and quickly burrowed back into the ground.
"This is winning?" Seeing the scene in front of him, Qiu Qian showed an unbelievable look, the zombie with an impregnable wall was actually cut off by Ye Zhu's sword, which was really unbelievable.
"This legendary corpse king can't help but fight!"
