Zhou Mu stared at Huang Wuzuo with fierce eyes and roared crazily with a hoarse voice.
"No way! I'm not! You're talking nonsense!"
"I'm not dead! I'm still alive! I'm a living person! Not a dead person!"
"Ahhh!"
The more he spoke, the crazier he became, his facial features became more and more distorted, and his expression became more and more ferocious. Finally, he let out a crazy roar that didn't sound like a living person.
Puff puff...
There were bursts of weird tearing sounds, and the nails on Zhou Mu's hands suddenly grew suddenly, popping out with a "clang" like sharp daggers.
Black and shiny, it makes people palpitate.
At the same time, the black pupils in his eyes quickly spread out, turning into a terrifying white.
Sizzle!
The black dog's blood rope that tied him began to make a sound like boiling water in a hot oil pan. It also emitted bursts of green smoke and emitted an unpleasant smell.
When Xu Xinyi and the worker Xiao Zhao saw it, they were so frightened that they backed away and trembled all over.
If Huang Wuzuo hadn't been standing calmly in front, the two of them would have turned around and run away.
Huang Wuzuo was also very shocked and said in an unbelievable tone.
"There is such a thing as a living corpse in this world! If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it."
As a clerk in the yamen, he had seen as many corpses as those in the coffin bearers and corpse diggers. Especially in these troubled times, it can definitely be called "well-informed".
Similarly, when he saw the corpses transformed into corpses, the number would definitely not be small...
But this was the first time that someone like Zhou Mu could speak human language and even think like a living person.
"I'm not dead! I'm alive! I'm still alive! You damn guy, how dare you talk nonsense. I'm going to tear you into pieces, I'm going to eat you."
Zhou Mu has begun a complete transformation into a corpse. He looks very scary and his speech is becoming increasingly unclear. No longer like a living person.
Crunchy...
The hemp rope smeared with black dog blood that tied him was threatening to be broken. At the same time, the three chicken blood feathers attached to his forehead also began to become unstable and tended to fall off.
I didn’t expect that this living corpse would turn out to be so powerful after it went crazy!
Huang Wuzuo knew that he could not delay any longer.
He shouted lowly and flipped his wrist.
A sharp short-handled knife appeared in his hand.
Strangely enough, it was a black knife, but the blade was flashing with a blood-red light, which was very strange.
In fact, this is a knife that is usually used for autopsies and dissections of corpses.
Because there are so many corpses that have been cut up, the knife itself carries a very strong evil spirit, and is specially designed to target evil objects - especially corpse ghosts, which is very powerful!
Even corpse ghosts as hard as stone can be easily cut.
Huang Wuzuo rushed to Zhou Mu and directly stabbed the opponent's heart with his Wuzuo knife. Suddenly, a black smoke gurgled out from it, and Zhou Mu roared in pain.
"Stop standing there and light the fire."
Huang Wuzuo took out his knife, took a few steps back, and at the same time ordered Xu Xinyi and his helpers.
The two said they wanted to watch the fun together, and of course they also had to do some work.
Huang Wuzuo had been fully prepared before. Not only did he tie Zhou Mu Wuhuada to a wooden stake with a black dog blood hemp rope, but he also put bloody chicken feathers on his forehead.
There were a lot of dry firewood piled around, all of which had been doused with kerosene. As long as a little spark is thrown into it, it will immediately burst into flames.
The Huozhezi had already been prepared for Xu Xinyi to hold in his hand.
Now when he heard Huang Wuzuo's order, he immediately lit the firewood and threw it towards the firewood filled with kerosene.
call!
The flames drew an arc in the air and landed accurately on the pyre.
It suddenly burst into flames.
Fire shot into the sky.
Almost the entire surrounding wilderness was illuminated, and the heat wave was billowing.
Huang Wuzuo, Xu Xinyi, and helper Xiao Zhao stood together, looking seriously at the corpse that was gradually burned to charcoal in the fire.
Xu Xinyi sighed: "In these years of doing business, I have traveled all over Fubei County. I didn't expect that I would encounter such a terrifying and strange evil spirit."
After hearing what he said, Huang Wuzuo seemed a little strange. He glanced at him and said quietly.
"In these troubled times, death is as normal as eating and drinking. Too many people die, natural and man-made disasters occur simultaneously, and evil spirits are rampant everywhere. You have been dumping food in Fubei County for so long, and this is the first time you have encountered Something evil. This is actually a big weird thing."
Xu Xinyi smiled and didn't know how to answer Huang Zuozuo's words.
The three of them stood in the wilderness until the flames went out to ensure that the zombies had been eliminated. Only then did Huang Zuo lead the two of them back to the town.
It is said that since then, Xu Xinyi has developed a keen interest in these monsters and ghosts. Gradually, I began to take the initiative to learn about this aspect. Later, I even stopped working as a grain merchant and spent all my money to learn more...
No one knows what happens after that.
Of course, there is no need to record it in the "Fubei County Chronicle".
Thus, the record of this strange "living corpse" incident in the early years of the Republic of China ended here.
…
I have to say that although this guy Wang Dachun has average reading and learning abilities, his storytelling ability is really good. It is told vividly and vividly, giving people an immersive feeling.
And almost every detail is taken care of.
"Brother Angkor, that's it. It's just such a story. My mouth is dry even though I'm talking about it. Let me take a sip of water first."
As he spoke, he took out a thermos cup from the bag on his back and started drinking water.
I held my chin and fell into thinking.
Ordinary people may read this story recorded in "Fubei County Chronicles" and think it is nonsense and nonsense. But I now know that he is real and trustworthy!
Several useful messages can be drawn from this story.
First, the "ji"-shaped bay outside Xiaowan Village is indeed strange. And it doesn’t start from now, it has been weird since the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China!
I even suspect that there may have been many weird things earlier. However, no relevant records or legends have been found yet.
Second, it turns out that "living corpses" are indeed very dangerous!
It's just that Li Miao, Lao Cao and I didn't know the specific dangers before. Just relying on experience and common sense, I believe that this kind of zombie that has obviously transformed into a corpse cannot really be as harmless as it seems on the surface.
So now we know that at least one of the taboos about living corpses is that the truth that he is dead must never be revealed!
In the story in "Fubei County Chronicles", when Huang Wuzuo revealed the truth about Zhou Mu's death, he started to go crazy. In the end, it even reached the level of a top-level vicious corpse.
The hemp rope soaked in the blood of the black dog, the chest hair of the rooster stained with its own blood... these are all extremely effective ghost-suppressing items!
Whether it is a corpse or a ghost, it will be suppressed by this.
But according to the story, Zhou Mu was able to almost break the hemp rope and make the chicken feathers fall off, which shows that this guy is already very powerful.
If it weren't for the fact that Huang Zuo was so awesome at the end, I'm afraid the story would have had a different ending. The grain merchant Xu Xinyi and the helper Xiao Zhao were afraid that they would be killed by the zombies on the spot.
Third, since this incident is recorded in "Fubei County Chronicles", the protagonists in it are also real. It is very likely that their descendants are still alive now!
If we calculate based on time, maybe the sons, daughters, etc. of these three people should still be alive! Even if the children may be gone, there is a high probability that the grandchildren will still be around, right?
When encountering such a big thing, it's impossible not to brag to your family or something, right?
So if we find the descendants of these three people, we can get more useful information - at least it may be clearer than what is in the "Fubei County Chronicles".
I silently calculated in my mind that these were the three unexpected pieces of information about the "living corpses" in Xiaowan Village.
I'm secretly glad.
"Fortunately, Li Miao did not point out the fact that Xiao Sheng was dead at the beginning. Otherwise, the child corpse would have violently transformed on the spot, and Li Miao himself and the Xiao family who were watching at the time would all be dead!"
I made an inference based on Zhou Mu's situation.
Because it is very likely that, like Xiao Sheng, he was affected by some foreign object at the bottom of the river in Xiaowan Village and turned into a living corpse. The strength to completely reveal the corpse form should be similar!
Thinking of this, I started to worry again.
Once this kind of "living corpse" is angered, the consequences are really terrible. As for the child corpse Xiao Sheng who was suppressed in the cellar of the Xiao family, should he consider moving to another place to suppress him or strengthening his formation?
Along the way, my mind was filled with these messy thoughts, and I didn’t pay much attention to my surroundings...
Wang Dachun probably saw that I didn't chase him away this time, so he didn't say a word and just followed me all the way.
When we reached the street that was close to the coffin shop, we were right at the fork in the road. He suddenly yelled, grabbed the corner of my clothes, and tried to hide behind me.
The whole person began to tremble.
Well...actually, he's half a head taller than me and much bulkier. If you really want to hide from something, you can't hide from it.
His sudden start shocked me.
Somewhat speechless, I pulled him out from behind and asked, "Wang Dachun, what are you yelling about? I'm just thinking about something, give me a shock!"
Wang Dachun raised his hand tremblingly and pointed at the street corner in front.
"Angkor, then, there... I just saw an old man floating around there! Do you know? The kind with feet floating off the ground, and occasionally the toes will hold the ground. Absolutely. It's not a human! Yes, it's that one..."
He didn't dare to say the word "ghost" anymore.
I was slightly surprised: "You can actually see him?"
Wang Dachun was about to cry: "Yes, and I can see it very clearly."
I was angry and funny, so I patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't you say you are very brave? You usually watch VCDs at home, watch Hong Kong zombie movies and so on? And just now you told me the living corpse story in "Fubei County Chronicles" vividly. Why are you giving up now?"
Wang Dachun said with a sad face: "Angkor, that's different. Look at the story, and Zhen met, can it be the same!"
As he said that, he glanced forward, and then screamed again: "Angkor! It's coming, it's coming. That old man is floating over here. You, go and fuck him quickly."
I slapped his head again and said angrily.
"What the hell! This is an employee of the store where I live. I usually help with work."
After finishing speaking, I looked at Wang Hu who was floating over here, spread his hands and said: "Uncle Tiger, I said you shouldn't always float around at the street entrance, right? It's easy to scare people. No, today You were so scared that you peed yourself."
I deliberately made fun of Wang Dachun.
Wang Hu also looked embarrassed and said apologetically to me: "Brother Wu, I'm so sorry. I originally wanted to wait for you to go home together, but I ended up scaring your friend. And I really didn't expect that ordinary people could see me. ?It’s also strange.”
After saying that, he also greeted Wang Dachun: "Sorry, little brother, you don't have to be afraid. I am an employee of Brother Wu's store. What's more, with a practitioner like Brother Wu here, are you still afraid of ghosts?"
