We drove quickly all the way, but fortunately the corpse poison in Chen Jingren's body did not attack. It was almost dawn when we arrived near the Witch's Hill.
They were also lucky enough to accidentally discover a thatched hut in the mountains that might have been built by a hunter.
This thatched hut looked dilapidated. There was nothing else in the house except two large tanks. It looked more like a temporary warehouse.
The room was covered with spider webs, and there was no food stored in the two jars. It looked like it had been abandoned for a long time.
But for Chen Jingren, this is the perfect hiding place.
Being in crisis for several days in a row, the huge consumption made both him and Yashamaru need to recuperate.
This place is just a stopgap measure. Chen Jingren needs a real place to stay. He doesn't want to live in the catacombs like other zombies.
Chen Jingren originally planned to arrange some Shura grass outside the house as a barrier to drive away humans and beasts, but he gave up when he thought that this place was originally around the Witch's Hill.
But he doesn't have to worry too much, after all, there are few people here, and even if he encounters a wild beast, it won't hurt him at all.
Looking at Yashamaru who had fallen into a deep sleep, Chen Jingren also felt a little sleepy and fell asleep.
When he woke up, it was already afternoon.
Chen Jingren hadn't had a good night's sleep in a long time. He was deeply tired of the transition from game to game.
Yashamaru beside him had already woken up and was guarding him every step of the way.
Although they have arrived at Witch's Hill and are temporarily out of danger.
But the Witch's Hill is still an unknown place for him, and he doesn't know what kind of BOSS the Witch of Babylon is, and he doesn't know whether it will bring danger to him.
The next step is to get down to business, they still have a lot to do.
His spirit corpse eating plan can finally show its full potential here.
"Yashamaru, do you think the people and animals living around Witch's Hill are really resistant to Shura grass?"
Yashamaru did not answer immediately, but thought for a while before saying: "Master, I can't say whether it is or not. After all, I was poisoned after eating Shura grass. If it weren't for the witch, I would have died long ago. I have seen Some guys never got up after eating it, and some of them didn't do anything like me after eating it. Moreover, there are not only Shura grass in Witch's Hill, but also various plants that I have never seen before. I dare not go there because of fear. I’ve touched weirder plants.”
After hearing Yashamaru's description, Chen Jingren couldn't help but become suspicious.
He remembered that both the system and Su Lan had said that the witch was a guy who liked to study and tinker with weird medicines.
Chen Jingren thought to himself: "Those strange plants she planted must be materials for developing pills. I don't know what she developed, but it is definitely not a good thing."
Chen Jingren held up his chin and walked back and forth in the thatched house like a famous detective, as if the truth was about to be revealed at any time.
"But the strange thing is, if these strange plants are really grown with painstaking efforts to make pills, how can animals be allowed to enter and eat them? After all, they are precious and dangerous medicinal materials. Even Yasha Pills are almost worthless after eating them. Die there.”
What makes Chen Jingren even more puzzled is that if it is a material for making pills, then how could the witch allow Yashamaru to take the Shura grass out of the Witch's Hill?
If these weird plants aren't what pills are made from, what are they used for?
All this seemed very contradictory and unbelievable, leaving him confused.
The current situation has become a mess even with humans joining in. Will the Witch of Babylon really stand aside and watch the show?
If possible, Chen Jingren hopes to drag the witch into the water. Only if the witch is hostile to the zombie camp will she be able to give herself the medicine that can suppress the corpse poison.
As time goes by, the sun has gradually set, and it will soon be night again.
As night came, Chen Jingren was both excited and a little scared.
The exciting thing is that he can move around at night, but the scary thing is that the zombies parasitic in his body will also move around.
"Master, it's going to be dark soon. Let's go and build the house first. With our current ability, it will be built in less than three days."
Chen Jingren couldn't help laughing when he saw that Yashamaru was serious about building a house with him.
"No, Yashamaru. What we need to build is not a house, but an altar."
After he knew that the people who died there that night were not followers of the witch, a bold idea appeared in his heart.
Yashamaru's face was full of confusion, and his canine appearance turned out to be somewhat cute.
"Master, what is the purpose of building an altar?"
Chen Jingren deliberately said: "After the altar is built, it can give us food and a place to live."
Yashamaru was obviously out of his mind. He thought a lot but never thought how the altar could be exchanged for a house, and who would trade a house for an altar.
Although it doesn't understand Chen Jingren's intentions, it will do whatever its master tells it to do.
After nightfall, Chen Jingren and Yashamaru took action separately.
After choosing the construction site, Chen Jingren went to get some wood.
Now Chen Jingren can easily break trees with his sharp fangs and nails, and the most indispensable thing in the mountains is wood.
Chen Jingren made six wooden stakes of equal height from the obtained wood, sharpened one end according to the position of the six-pointed star, and then smashed it into the soil with a stone. After completion, he placed stones around the wooden piles.
After the wooden piles were completed, Chen Jingren took a large vat out of the house and placed it in the center of the six wooden piles.
He wanted to bury the jar underground and use wood to build up the area around the mouth of the cylinder to look like a well.
But the way he looks now is not suitable for digging holes, so he can only wait for the professional digger to come back.
And not long after, Yashamaru also came back.
Following Chen Jingren's instructions, he used the unique smell of Shura grass to kill the beasts that were attracted.
Chen Jingren and Yashamaru dragged back the killed beasts and placed them next to the vat.
Yashamaru was already salivating with greed, but he didn't dare to eat secretly without Chen Jingren's instructions.
Chen Jingren saw the pain Yashamaru endured and said with a smile: "Yakshamaru, please bear with me a little longer. I still have use for these foods, not for eating. When all this is done, I will let you go on a killing spree. "
Chen Jingren asked Yashamaru to dig a deep pit in the center that could fit a large vat, but he used a sharp stone to carve some strange words and symbols on the wooden pile.
This was a crude copy of the altar that appeared in a comic he had read before, but the text and symbols were purely scrawled, and even he himself did not know what they meant.
Time was running out and they had to finish everything before sunrise. Others should not be allowed to see what the altar will look like before it is completed.
After carving the ghost symbols, Chen Jingren took animal blood and poured it on them.
The reason why he poured blood on it was firstly to increase the scary and weird atmosphere, and secondly to make the person who discovered the altar notice that the blood had only recently been stuck on it.
The large vat that was put into the pit was to be used by Chen Jingren to contain blood. He wanted the witch believers who discovered the altar to immediately understand that it was a blood altar.
But there wasn't that much blood to fill the vat. Chen Jingren thought about making a mezzanine, but he didn't have the right tools and materials at hand.
He needs a suitable vessel, otherwise the altar is not a success.
Yashamaru was indeed an expert in digging holes, and he quickly dug the big hole at the ninth level.
"Master, do you want to put the tank in now?"
Chen Jingren signaled to wait, he had to solve the problem at hand.
"Why don't you add more rocks to this tank? At least it will still be effective."
Then he shook his head again. In that case, the current blood volume in his hand would not be enough.
Chen Jingren is very upset that the most critical plot cannot be realized immediately. This seriously affected his plans.
He told Yashamaru his confusion, and Yashamaru also shook his head.
Although you can make a barrel out of wood, there is nothing that can firmly fix the wooden blocks.
Although it would be possible to use a stone trough, I couldn't find such a suitable stone for a while.
Chen Jingren had no choice but to put this piece down first.
Instead, he used wood and stone to build a simple platform on which the offerings could be placed.
At this moment, Chen Jingren suddenly sensed human aura.
And there should be two people. Could it be that they are hunters waiting for dawn to hunt when they come out so late?
The sudden appearance of humans made Chen Jingren instinctively feel danger.
If they find out that he is building this altar, his plan will be ruined.
Chen Jingren hurriedly took Yashamaru and went together to find out what happened.
If the other party tries to mess with him again, he won't hesitate this time.
Kill them cleanly and drain their blood.
As for their corpses, leave it to Yashamaru to deal with.
Their bloody clothes were placed in front of the altar. If someone found them, they could be treated as accidental intruders and sacrificed as sacrifices.
In this way, you can save yourself the time to promote and guide the witch. For the believers of the witch, the appearance of such an altar is enough to shock them.
As long as some messages are left that people will die if they touch the altar rashly, these witch believers will not dare to act rashly.
Seeing the two preys coming to his door, Chen Jingren let out a weird laugh.
It would be even more perfect if tomorrow's group of discoverers could think that all this is related to the witch.
Yashamaru followed Chen Jingren in pursuit of the smell, and they saw the two intruders from a distance.
And these two people turned out to be a man and a woman, in the middle of the night, deep in the mountains and forests, a man and a woman alone, and two zombies peeping in the distance.
