"so what?"
Cao Yi was noncommittal.
"I want to stay until the real Higanbana appears."
Ying Caihong's pale face was filled with determination.
"Aren't you afraid of the Millennium Zombie?"
Cao Yi asked.
"I'm afraid, but I'm even more afraid of death."
Ying Caihong smiled bitterly. There was something growing in her brain and she had only a few days to live. If she left here, she would die sooner or later.
Cao Yi nodded and did not persuade again. There was no further persuasion to Yoko and others. These people are determined to follow Ying Caihong.
The world in the empty tomb is restored to tranquility. Five figures stood on the edge of the platform, quietly waiting for the Millennium Zombie to appear.
Time passed by minute by minute. The tense atmosphere has not eased at all.
“Let’s move Ding Sitian’s body first.”
Cao Yi thought about it, jumped slightly, and returned to the stone platform in the center again.
Ding Sitian was still lying motionless, looking harmless.
Cao Yi clamped the mahogany sword to his waist and reached out. When he was about to touch Ding Sitian's body, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated. This feeling has never appeared before. Could it be that the legendary whim is a sign of danger.
Cao Yi suddenly took his hand back, and the feeling of accelerated heartbeat disappeared.
Sure enough there is a problem!
"Taoist Master, what did you find?"
Ying Caihong asked on the side.
Cao Yi turned his head and saw Ying Caihong's complex expression of nervousness and impatience, and shook his head in amusement.
"You, put down a stone slab and go over and take a look."
Ying Caihong told a foreigner beside her that she believed in her own people more than the uncontrollable Cao Yi.
The foreigner took off his backpack without hesitation, and with the help of another foreigner, he raised and lowered a stone slab. A road leads to the central stone platform.
The foreigner walked to Cao Yi with a numb expression, bent over and grabbed Ding Sitian's body.
Cao Yi held the peach wood sword tightly, ready to deal with abnormal things happening at any time.
When the foreigner touched Ding Sitian's body, he suddenly screamed in panic: "My hand, please save me, please save me..."
The foreigner's hands turned as black as thick ink at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the pale and sharp fingernails grew wildly. This change quickly spread along the arms to the neck, and on the face, the appearance of a green-faced and fanged zombie appeared.
"It's corpse poison again!"
Cao Yi thrust out the peach wood sword without hesitation.
A sword pierces the heart.
Mirror-image people with their hearts on the right side can't be everywhere. The foreigner was struck in the heart by the sword and immediately lost his life.
Cao Yi kicked lightly with his foot, and the foreigner fell into a dark crevice. Soon, there was a dull sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
"Turtle son's!"
Ying Caihong was startled and blurted out Sichuan dialect.
Cao Yi's eyes returned to Ding Sitian, secretly sighing that he was in such danger just now. If it was him who touched Ding Sitian, he would lose half his life.
After thinking about it, Cao Yi put his peach wood sword under Ding Sitian's body as a lever, and with a slight pry, Ding Sitian's body rolled out. A hole the size of a small washbasin appeared, with a layer of thick ink-colored viscous substance covering it, and a faint cold aura rushed out of the hole.
"Taoist Priest, look at the body!"
Ying Caihong on the side exclaimed.
Cao Yi looked at Ding Sitian and couldn't help but be startled. He saw Ding Sitian's body turning into bones at a speed visible to the naked eye. The appearance was very horrifying.
With a bang, the bones exploded and turned into a brilliant rain of light. A gust of wind came from nowhere, blowing the light rain towards the suspension bridge shrouded in thick fog.
"Hu Bayi, farewell..."
An ethereal voice whispered in the wind.
Hu Bayi, who had just left and arrived at the side of the suspension bridge, suddenly looked back: "Xiao Tian"
Deep inside the suspension bridge, there is endless thick fog, as calm as stagnant water.
"What's wrong?"
Shirley Yang asked doubtfully.
"I seemed to hear Xiaotian's voice."
Hu Bayi touched his heart, which was stabbing for some reason, and said.
Shirley Yang's face suddenly darkened.
"Where's the Triumph?"
Hu Bayi's expression changed when he realized that Wang Kaixuan was missing.
…
platform.
"How did she become Guangyu?"
Ying Caihong said in confusion.
"Then ask it"
Cao Yi stared intently at the stone cave where a cold aura was faintly coming out.
Ding Sitian, a person who has been dead for twenty years, is not in bad health. He can tell with his feet that the change occurred because he was nourished by the Yin-type spiritual energy in the cave. Ding Sitian left the cave and disappeared quickly, indicating that it was not nourished enough and could not leave the Yin attribute aura.
If I hadn't come here today and ruined this state. In a few decades, Ding Sitian will most likely become a real zombie.
"The real Higanbana may be inside."
Ying Caihong said excitedly.
"The Millennium Zombie is also inside"
Cao Yi poured cold water on his head.
Ying Caihong immediately stopped talking.
Cao Yi held the mahogany sword and pointed it at the thick ink-colored sticky object covering the entrance of the cave and stabbed it. Suddenly, it was like falling into mud. Can't advance, can't retreat.
"impossible"
Cao Yi used 70% of his strength. This was the first time he used such great strength after his body was transformed by the golden elixir. The effect was obvious, and the peach wood sword was slowly drawn out.
"Taoist Master, how are you doing?"
Ying Caihong asked.
Cao Yi jumped lightly and returned to the edge: "If we can't open the cave, we can only wait for her to come out on her own."
"What if she never comes out?"
Ying Caihong's expression changed.
For her, it would be more terrifying if the Millennium Zombie did not come out than if it did, and she had no time to wait.
"Respected master, why not use explosives to blow it up"
Yoko suggested.
Cao Yi and Ying Caihong looked at Yoko at the same time as if they were a fool.
Use explosives inside the tomb to make you no longer want to live.
Yoko realized that he had made a mistake and lowered his head.
"Taoist Priest, is there no other way?"
Ying Caihong asked reluctantly.
Any other way? Cao Yi looked at Sanqing Ling. This is the only magic weapon in your hand that can remotely affect zombies.
Lifting the Sanqing Bell, it shook for a while, and a clear and sweet sound sounded.
"This is Sanqing Bell"
As a person who engages in a cult, Ying Caihong also has a certain understanding of Taoist magic weapons.
Cao Yi ignored her and kept shaking the Sanqing Bell.
One minute... ten minutes... thirty minutes. An ordinary person wouldn't be able to lift his hands. Cao Yi was only slightly sore and numb.
Suddenly, a sharp and unpleasant cry came from the cave.
"Millennium Zombie"
Ying Caihong backed away in fright, accidentally stepped on a piece of gravel, and sat down on the ground.
Yoko and the foreigner looked pale and even forgot to support Ying Caihong.
The power of the Millennium Zombies is evident.
Cao Yi looked wary.
After a while, the screams disappeared again.
"Come again"
Cao Yi shook the Sanqing bell again.
A sharp cry came from the cave again.
Half a day passed and still didn't come out.
"Taoist Priest, she seems to be afraid of something."
Ying Caihong, who was sitting on the ground, suddenly said.
