Night is indeed the home of the night parade.
He comes and goes like the wind, so fast that no dog can catch him.
Qin Shaoyou and Monk Ma were still some distance away from the camp, so he turned back, floating in mid-air, and reported to Qin Shaoyou:
"Sir, there is a walking corpse in the camp. The riot started because of her. The night watchman is currently organizing a roundup, but this walking corpse is quite weird..."
"What kind of weird method?"
Qin Shaoyou raised his eyebrows.
The night patrol said that there were zombies causing trouble in the camp, and he did see and hear the chaos in the camp.
But his appetite didn't respond at all.
Has his mouth become picky? Not interested in ordinary walking dead? Or do the walking corpses here have some unusual hidden secrets?
Ye Xuanyou didn't know what Qin Shaoyou was thinking, but when he saw Qin Shaoyou frowning, he didn't dare to neglect and hurriedly reported: "The walking corpse still retains the memory of his life."
"Amitabha, this is the tendency to become frozen... What grievance does that walking corpse have to avenge?"
Monk Ma proclaimed the Buddha's name, frowned and asked, and at the same time moved a string of rosary beads hanging on his neck.
Each of these beads is as big as a child's fist, a total of eighteen beads, with incantations and scriptures engraved on them. They are custom-made magical tools for him from the Taoist priest.
It can be used as a whip to spur people who have made mistakes to change their ways. It can also be used as a hidden weapon to persuade people to do good.
Previously at Fulong Temple, Monk Ma used this rosary to save several demons from the Black Lotus Sect.
Now that he heard that there were walking corpses in the camp, he felt that this rosary could come in handy again.
But Ye Xuanyou's answer was beyond his expectation: "It wouldn't be strange if the walking corpse really showed signs of freezing, but she didn't. She didn't even hurt others when she made trouble, she was just protecting herself. children."
Qin Shaoyou keenly captured the key information: "Her child? Dead or alive? Human or demon?"
Ye Xuanyou replied: "It's a human. I checked and found that the child is dead. The time of death was later than that of the person who became a walking zombie."
Qin Shaoyou still trusts the investigation results provided by Night Patrol.
After all, patrolling and collecting intelligence are what patrols day and night are good at.
Qin Shaoyou also sorted out a rough story from these scattered clues:
A mother took her children to escape the war.
There may be another father, but the father either died under the hooves of the Qingtang barbarians while escaping from the disaster, or died while escaping from the military disaster... In short, he died earlier than the mother and son.
Later, the mother also died of hunger, disease and other reasons.
But she couldn't let go of her child, which gave rise to a huge obsession, which not only kept her soul in the world, but also turned her body into a cage, trapping her soul.
But the mother also got her wish and was able to stay on earth and continue to take care of her children.
This time of war and chaos is more terrifying than hell for a child who has lost his parents!
Even if it is not picked up by wild beasts or evil spirits at night, it may still appear in the pot of a homeless person in the early morning...
Things like Yi Zi eating each other are not uncommon in history books.
What's more, this is meat that can be obtained without exchanging one's own children...
It was precisely because she was worried that her child would experience something like this that the mother did not want her soul to return to the underworld after her death.
And after she died, her soul remained in the corpse, looking no different from a living person. Even if her body gave off some odor, no one would notice it.
Almost all those who fled the disaster were living in the open, so who of them had a bit of a stink?
Therefore, this dead mother, with her living child, has been mingling among the homeless people without being discovered or driven away.
She stays with her child every day. Although she is protecting the child, she is also constantly consuming the child's yang energy.
Because she is dead and an ordinary person, unlike Su Jianqing and Qiurong who know how to practice and can restrain their own yin energy to avoid eroding and consuming the yang energy of living people.
In the process of escaping from disaster, everyone is hungry and full. It is good to be able to barely eat, and they are often even hungry, which will weaken people's yang energy.
If it is corroded and consumed by the mother's Yin Qi, it would be strange for the child not to die.
After sorting out the general context of the matter, Qin Shaoyou frowned again.
Once this matter is not resolved properly, it may cause a big disaster!
That mother can make her soul stay in the world and turn her corpse into a cage, which shows how strong her obsession is!
But now, her child is dead again...
If the obsession in her heart cannot be relieved and she can accept the fact that she and her child are dead, I am afraid that a powerful demon will be born in this camp!
For example, the Guhuo bird likes to kidnap children.
While talking, Qin Shaoyou and Monk Ma rode their horses to the gate of the camp.
The soldiers guarding the gate are still very responsible.
Although they were all behind the fence, looking into the camp with their feet on their feet to see what was going on, but after hearing the sound of horse hooves, they immediately returned to their respective posts amidst the command of the team officer. A spear stretched out from behind the fence, causing the fence wall to quickly look like a hedgehog.
"who?"
"Stop!"
"Anyone who steps closer than twenty steps will be killed without mercy!"
The soldiers shouted loudly, not only to warn Qin Shaoyou and Monk Ma, but also to encourage themselves.
At the same time, he was notifying his companions in the camp to come quickly for reinforcements.
But the shouts of these soldiers, before calling their companions, first caused another commotion in the camp.
This camp is full of refugees. They have become frightened birds during the days of fleeing disasters. The slightest disturbance will make them panic.
Fortunately, at this time, Qin Shaoyou took out a night watchman's token from his arms, threw it into the hands of a team officer behind the fence.
At the same time, he used his [Skillful Tongue] and said loudly: "I am Xu Ba'an, the chief flag officer of the Demon Division of Luocheng Town. I am here to handle the disputes in the camp on the orders of Master Baihu. Please open the camp gate quickly!"
Monk Ma turned to look at Qin Shaoyou and found that he had put on a human skin mask and turned into Xu Ba'an.
After being stunned for a moment, Monk Ma also realized: Sir, you don't want to reveal your true identity and whereabouts, so as not to attract the attention of the Black Lotus Sect.
After all, they couldn't guarantee whether the demons from the Black Lotus Sect would know that they were with Qin Lin and Qin Erlang.
The best policy is to proceed with caution.
Monk Ma immediately took off the rosary beads hanging around his neck and put them in the saddle bag on the horse's back.
Then he took out a wig and a beard and put them on his head and face respectively.
Disguising is an essential skill for night watchmen, especially for people like Monk Ma who have risen from the grassroots level step by step. Even if their skills are not as exquisite as Zhu Xiucai's, they can still hide it from everyone's eyes in the dark night and the light is not good. No problem.
Besides, as long as the token is real, even if someone sees that he is in disguise, they won't say anything.
Asking is performing a mission!
As long as you don't see who I really am.
Not to mention, after putting on a wig and a beard, Monk Ma really seemed like a different person.
If he looked a bit like Lu Zhishen before, now that he has hair and a big beard, he immediately turns into the black whirlwind Li Kui!
Unless you are someone who is familiar with him, it would be difficult to associate his true appearance from his current appearance.
