Jiang Yao didn't have time to help him answer the question, so he said to Zong Lin: "Before it's time to give up, tell me first, what did you find in Xuanhe Temple?"
The reason why she knew they had been to Xuanhe Temple was because on the way to the temple, she observed the entire town and found that there was only one place where peach trees were planted, and that was the Taoist Temple. In addition to willows, the trees planted in cities and towns are ancient cypresses.
If they look for peach trees, they will definitely enter a Taoist temple.
Zong Lin drank two glasses of boiled water and soon told Jiang Yao everything that happened in the Taoist temple.
Jiang Yao fell into deep thought after listening.
'Buddha's bones are born, evil ghosts are like...'
It is said that in ancient times, there was a person who was born with the bones of a Buddha and was extremely talented in Buddhism. It was said that this person was the reincarnation of a god and Buddha, who saved all living beings and became a Buddha immediately after his death.
How can a person with Buddha bones become an evil ghost statue?
And what was wrong with what the crazy Taoist priest said later, "wrong"?
These answers can only be clarified by asking in towns.
Zong Lin said: "The corpses in the coffins must be buried as soon as possible. They mutate very quickly."
It was white stiffness last night, but it has become black stiffness tonight. Once they become jumping zombies, the corpse suppressing charm and the ink fountain will be of no use to them.
Jiang Yao nodded, broke off a small piece of steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth, and said, "Let's bury the body tomorrow, and then go to the town to find out what happened to Xuanhe Temple."
As for the question she asked the young novice monk of Qingyun Temple about whether there were any outsiders, she did not tell Zong Lin. The outcome of this matter is not good, and talking about it will only cause trouble.
There are strange statues hidden in temples, tombs in the abandoned backyard of Taoist temples... this town is more complicated than imagined.
Bai Mao felt like an outsider throughout the whole process, unable to say a word and unable to keep up with the two people's thoughts. I can only immerse myself in drawing talisman. After drawing one kind, show it to them.
"This is the Yang Pressure Talisman."
Pressing Yang Talisman, entry-level Talisman. Its function is to suppress the Yang Qi, so that the ghost cannot find the user.
But it is still entry-level. If it encounters a jump, the talisman will lose its use.
However, what they currently encounter the most is black and white stalemate.
Jiang Yao and Zong Lin each have two talismans.
There are not many yellow talismans left that are cut from rice paper, and most of them are used by Baimao to draw corpse-calming talismans and spirit-calming talismans. These two kinds of talismans consume a lot of money, and there is a lot of cinnabar left.
The rooster raised in the corner of Yizhuang is getting thinner and thinner, with its head hanging down sadly.
"In addition to burying the body tomorrow and going to the town to investigate, we also need to collect some materials."
Zong Lin said.
The two of them responded without any objection.
The next day.
It was still raining non-stop, and the heavy rain and fog made the sky hazy, and the ground was wet and slippery.
Zong Lin frowned.
"It is written in the book that burials are forbidden on rainy days."
If these four coffins are not buried today, they will face four dead bodies tonight.
One jump caused them to almost be annihilated, and all four had no chance of survival.
Jiang Yao asked Bai Mao, who had just woken up and was still in a dazed state: "Have you drawn the entry-level fire talisman?"
Bai Mao nodded dully, took out his pocket, took out ten fire charms and handed them to her.
An entry-level fire talisman, in terms of prop rating, it would barely reach bronze level.
White zombies are afraid of fire, and black zombies are also afraid of fire, but they are protected by Yin energy and are half resistant to fire.
Seeing this, Zong Lin guessed what she wanted to do and hurriedly said: "Once we destroy the body, the customs clearance mission will not be completed."
To pass the mission, you must successfully bury three corpses.
If the mission fails, they must stay in the Strange Realm and complete the main mission before leaving.
Jiang Yao said: "Aren't we here just to close the strange realm?"
Even after completing the clearance mission, they left safely. But this mysterious realm of "Yizhuang" will always exist, and the citizens of J City will be finished sooner or later.
Zong Lin knew what she meant.
However, these three corpses are their only escape route.
Jiang Yao's way to pass the level is to walk on a tightrope and gamble with his life, as he may die suddenly at any time.
She never needed an escape route, the only way to survive was in her dictionary.
She entered the realm for profit, and benefits and risks coexist.
She was like this before entering the thriller dungeon, and she was like this after entering the dungeon.
Jiang Yao understood Zong Lin's thoughts very well.
People are multi-faceted and will not impose their ideas on others.
Jiang Yao put the fire talisman in the young man's hand and said slowly:
"You make the decision."
After that, step aside.
Bai Mao still didn't know what happened. He didn't sleep well all night, and the floor was hard and cold.
It was as if he was forcibly brought to participate in the Metamorphosis by his parents. His arms were bitten several times by unknown insects, and the more he scratched, the more swollen he became.
"What decision have you made?" he asked blankly.
'唰'
The fire talisman was thrown into the black wood coffin, and a ball of flames burst out. The temperature was scorching, and the cold, gray Yizhuang was reflected in bright orange and gold.
He smelled a burning smell, and when he opened his eyes, he saw this situation. His eyes opened slightly and then shone brightly.
"Wow! It's a good burning. These old guys are banging on the coffin every night, so noisy that no one can sleep."
Bai Mao obviously forgot all about the customs clearance task.
The fire talisman burned for a full two hours before the corpse in the coffin was completely burned, leaving a piece of black ash on the ground, and Zong Lin swept it out of Yizhuang.
He made up his mind.
This mysterious realm must be completely closed so that it can never come to reality again.
Jiang Yao said: "Let's go to the town."
They used the Yang Pressing Talisman to avoid the zombies wandering aimlessly in the rain, and successfully arrived at Xitang Town.
Zong Lin was about to knock on the door of a certain town citizen, but was stopped by Jiang Yao.
"No one was inside, they all went to the temple."
When the rain stops, a few townspeople will come out to buy food and stock up, while the rest of the townspeople go to the temple to pray for blessings.
You can only go to the Taoist temple first.
Bai Mao paused on the spot, staring into the distance.
Zong Lin noticed it, came over and asked, "What's wrong?"
Bai Mao seemed to be awakened, his scalp was numb and he moved his eyes away. He had so many thoughts in his heart that he couldn't help but speak.
"I seem to see a zombie that looks very similar to me..."
Not only do they look alike, they have the same body shape and hair. It's just that I can't see it clearly through the rain.
Zong Lin sighed after hearing this.
I just felt that he had not slept well in the past two days, and he was in a daze. Moreover, the zombies are dressed the same as they are, they are all clothed in common clothes. It's normal to look similar from a distance.
"Let's go, we have to rush back after dark."
Bai Mao no longer thought about it, nodded and followed.
Xuanhe Temple.
Against the background of the rain, this desolate and lonely Taoist temple seemed to be built in the underworld, exuding a gloomy atmosphere.
