Chapter 127: The Mountain Scorpion in the Coffin(1/2)

※※

The scene of the bald-tailed monkey being dragged into the coffin by the zombies was so fast that it left no room for thought. Partridge Whistle and others only felt a blur in front of their eyes while standing on the tree, and then they heard several old monkey sounds coming from inside the purple gold coffin. Screaming before death, Partridge Whistle was worried that Rong Baoxiao would be frightened and would not scream out, so he quickly pressed his hand over his mouth, which was covered with black gauze.

The group of monkeys gathered in the forest were also frightened and froze on the spot. Their eyes were all focused on the purple gold coffin, and even the monkeys' eyes were straightened when they saw it.

It wasn't until the bald-tailed monkeys' heart-rending miserable howls suddenly stopped that the group of monkeys woke up from a dream, just like hozen animals scattered after a tree fell. They screamed "Aoao" and fled in all directions in the forest. In an instant, they disappeared without a trace in the dense forest. Silence returned to the depths, and not a single monkey hair was left.

Seeing the transformation of a corpse, Miss Hong quickly took out three flying knives painted with black dog blood and was about to attack. Partridge Whistle quietly raised her hand to signal her not to act rashly.

The zombies of the Yuan Dynasty nobles in this coffin are so powerful that they cannot be easily destroyed.

However, judging from their appearance, they should be those of people with colored eyes in the Western Regions. In the Yuan Dynasty, many ethnic groups coexisted harmoniously. It is not surprising that people with colored eyes would be generals. The general who commanded the army during the expedition against the barbarians in the Seventy-two Cave of Laoxiong Ridge was probably this person. people.

In the Yuan Dynasty, the practice of human sacrifice was very popular. The armored mummies seen in the tombs were probably the warriors buried with them. The emperor could have hundreds of people buried with him, and the princes could have dozens of people. The general who commanded the army arranged for several personal followers to be buried with him. Guarding the door in the tomb passage was not considered a cruel and extravagant act in terms of the social atmosphere at that time.

However, the cultural background of the Western Regions is unique, and funeral customs are also very different from traditional burial systems.

The coffins, tombs, artifacts, and methods of preserving corpses are all extremely mysterious from the current perspective.

They have moved to the Central Plains from the Shuanghei Mountains in the desert of the Western Regions for more than thousands of years. They have limited knowledge of the funeral methods in the Western Regions that have flourished since the Han Dynasty. They are not sure about the details of the transformation of the corpse in the huge coffin in Pingshan, so they have to let everyone be tempted to endure it. Sex, continue to sneak peek in the tree.

In the dead silence of the forest, there were only bursts of rattling sounds coming from the coffin, as if zombies were gnawing at the dead body of a bald-tailed monkey inside. The sound chilled everyone's hearts and lungs.

Among them, Rong Baoxiaoye suddenly felt a slippery coldness on his neck. He thought it was the partridge whistle that had tied a rope to him to prevent him from falling into the tree, so he touched it with his hands while trembling with fear, and whispered. Said: "Uncle Partridge, don't tie up the little neck, there is still room for breathing..."

Before he finished speaking, he touched the rope on the back of his neck. In a daze, he took it in his hand and saw that it was a venomous white-flowered snake, spitting out snake messages at him.

Rong Baoxiaoye was so frightened that two of his three souls left his body, and four of his seven souls left his body. He hurriedly used all his strength to shake off the white flower snake in his hand.

But the branch under him couldn't withstand his tossing, and it suddenly broke with a "click", and both the man and the branch fell down at the same time.

Partridge Whistle and Miss Hong were paying attention to the movement of the coffin under the tree, but they didn't pay attention to Rong Baoxiao's sudden change. Even though Partridge Whistle was extremely fast, it was already half a step too late when he noticed that the branch of the tree was broken.

This big tree was several feet tall, and he was worried that Rong Baoxiao would fall from a height and be killed or injured.

Desperate to save people, Partridge Whistle no longer cared about hiding, and hurriedly hung upside down on a tree branch, kicked the trunk of the tree, let go of his arms, and floated down like a nocturnal bat.

The partridge whistle arrived first and grabbed Rong Baoxiaoye by the collar in mid-air.

When Rong Baoxiao opened his eyes, he saw that someone below him was following him, and the partridge whistle above him was also pulling him.

"Taoist Priest..."

"I've met the Taoist priest!"

When several people saw that it was Zhang Lin catching Rong Baoxiaohe under the tree, they all breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to each other in low voices.

Miss Hong put away the flying knife and asked doubtfully: "Taoist Priest, why are you here?"

"Boy Chen, if you don't trust me, let me take a look!"

Zhang Lin saw how cautious the people were, and knew that they might have encountered something strange, so he asked, "What's the situation now?"

After several people heard this, they looked at me and I looked at you. In the end, Rong Baoxiao said with lingering fear: "Taoist Master, that corpse king is cheating!"

"Fake corpse?" Zhang Lin frowned when he heard this. This Yuan Dynasty general has hundreds of years of history and comes from the army. He has a very evil spirit. If he really faked the corpse, he would probably be ten times more powerful than Mr. Ren.

Thinking of this, Zhang Lin made a light leap and climbed up to the big tree where Partridge Sentinel and others were staying just now.

As soon as they saw Partridge Whistle, they climbed up the tree again.

Partridge Whistle and Miss Red came to Zhang Lin and saw Zhang Lin looking around. Miss Red pointed at the coffin in the distance and said: "Taoist Master, please look, the Corpse King is in that coffin. This clicking sound is the Corpse King."

Eating the hair from that old bald-tailed monkey."

When Zhang Lin came, it was Rong Baoxiao who fell from the tree, so he didn't know what happened. Hearing this, he asked in confusion: "What bald-tailed old monkey?"

When Miss Hong heard this, she briefly told Zhang Lin what happened just now.

After listening to this, Zhang Lin furrowed his brows and heard the constant clicking sounds in the coffin. He felt something in his heart and said, "It's not a fake corpse. I'm afraid there was something in the coffin that preyed on the old monkey, so there was an abnormal sound in the coffin.

It's the sound of animals eating. If it's really a fake corpse, it's definitely not what it is now."

Seeing Partridge Whistle and others looking at him in confusion, Zhang Lin explained: "You don't know something. Zombies are born from the resentment of heaven and earth. They are born with extremely bloodthirsty and like to kill.

If this Yuan Dynasty general was really a corpse, he would not just drag away an old monkey, but would pursue a group of monkeys relentlessly.

Moreover, zombies only suck the blood of living creatures and do not bite corpses, because after the living creatures are sucked by the zombies, they will become new zombies, and the new zombies will respect the zombie that turned them into zombies.

Therefore, zombies will never destroy the corpses of their subordinates, because that will affect the ability of new zombies to move, just like your boss will not kill your Xiling brothers for no reason.

Instead, zombies will protect the newly born zombies to strengthen their own power.

Although many zombies do this unconsciously."

Several people were stunned when they heard what Zhang Lin said. This statement was very different from the zombies they encountered in the tomb. Rong Baoxiaohe even stuttered: "Taoist Priest...you

That's fair... have you ever seen... seen a zombie?"

A mahogany sword appeared in Zhang Lin's hand like a magic trick, with a touch of the blade saying: "In "Zi Buyu", there are eight levels of zombies. From low to high they are: purple zombie, white zombie, green zombie, and hairy zombie.

, flying zombies, wandering corpses, lying corpses, not turning into bones.

Purple zombies and white zombies are easy to deal with and are nothing to worry about, but once a zombie is lucky enough to evolve into green zombies, that is, jump zombies, it will be troublesome.

I once worked with others to kill a green zombie. Its copper skin and iron bones were extremely powerful and invulnerable. However, we wasted a lot of effort in killing it.

That zombie had only practiced Taoism for more than twenty years, and the place where he was buried had no better Feng Shui than that of the Yuan Dynasty general.

If it is true that he is a liar, this general of the Yuan Dynasty is, at least, a Mao Zong Daoist, or even a Fei Zong, how can you expect to be here?"

When several people heard this, they were all frightened.

I have also read Partridge Whistle in "Zi Buyu", but I have always regarded it as a strange story. I didn't expect Zhang Lin to speak categorically about it today, especially when the other party had cut real objects.

But when everyone heard that it was not a fake corpse, they felt relieved.

It is said that zombies have copper skin and iron bones, making them invulnerable.

Nowadays, they all carry firearms, which makes it easy to deal with unknown creatures, but they may not be able to deal with zombies.

Since Zhang Lin also confirmed that it was not a fake corpse, several people boldly headed towards the purple gold coffin with their firearms in hand.

Except for Rong Baoxiaohe, everyone in the group has extraordinary skills. Red Girl and Partridge Whistle are even more important. How can they be frightened now? They want to see what is causing trouble here.

Zhang Lin stood not far from the coffin, ready to take action at any time. Red Girl and Partridge Whistle, one on the left and one on the right, slowly approached the coffin.

However, they could hear the coffin rattling all over, as if something inside would crawl out and attack anyone at any time. The two of them held their breaths and looked at each other, hinting at the same time to take action, and hinting to Zhang Lin to be prepared.

When everything was ready, Partridge Whistle and Miss Hong took the Centipede Hanging Ladder in their hands, lifted it up and put it into the coffin.

The two men first used a centipede-mounted ladder to push aside the seven-star board that was half covering the coffin, and then lowered the head of the ladder.

Then the two nodded to each other, and the partridge whistle counted one, two, three in the shape of its mouth.

When they counted to three, the centipede hanging on the mountain ladder in their hands was like a flying dragon stirring up the sea. When they rolled it up in the coffin, their hands were heavy, and they knew that the carabiner in front of the bamboo ladder had caught something.

Seeing this, Miss Hong quickly glanced at Partridge Whistle. The two of them seemed to have some kind of understanding, and without saying anything, they both gathered strength and strengthened their hands, and then worked together to lift the centipede hanging from the mountain ladder.

But both of them felt that the bamboo ladder had become extremely heavy, so they had to push harder, and unexpectedly pulled out a large mass of something from the coffin.

At this time, the cold moonlight was shining down, and the six people standing close could see clearly.

I saw the centipede hanging on the copper-clad hook at the front end of the mountain ladder, hanging on the mouth of the dead bald-tailed monkey. The dead monkey's mouth was torn open, and its lifeless face was turned up to the sky, like fishing.

Let Luan Gou pull it up from the coffin.

Partridge Whistle is used to seeing things like life and death. No matter how weird the corpse is, in his eyes, it looks like a clay sculpture.

However, he would never take extreme measures to mutilate an ancient corpse unless he had to. He believed that only by knowing how to respect death could he avoid the call of death again and again. At present, he and Miss Hong were poking at the corpse with a bamboo ladder, but

It's really a helpless move.

Because no one knew what was in the coffin, when he saw the corpse of the dead monkey being pulled out of the coffin, he didn't even move his eyebrows and continued to watch as calmly as water.

His whole body is ready to go, ready to deal with all kinds of emergencies that are about to happen.

But Miss Hong was a half-way into fighting, and now that she saw the dead monkey corpse in such a hideous and terrifying state, she suddenly felt horrified and did not dare to look directly at the monkey's face.

Seeing this, Zhang Lin had no choice but to ask her to step back, and he stepped forward to check with his mahogany sword in hand.

I saw that what was picked out from the coffin by the bamboo ladder was not just a fluffy monkey corpse. There was also the corpse of a Yuan Dynasty general closely connected with the corpse of the dead bald monkey.

The head of the ancient corpse was buried in the neck of the dead monkey, and it seemed that it was biting it with its mouth open. The bamboo ladder pulled the dead old bald-tailed monkey out of the coffin together with the Yuan Dynasty zombie.

After all, the weight of the bald-tailed old monkey is limited, but the Yuan Dynasty zombie was tall and heavy, and it might have been filled with mercury and allowed to rot.

As a result, Red Girl and Partridge Whistle both had sweat on their foreheads. They had just carried the bamboo ladder several times, and it took a lot of effort to pick out the corpses of the monkey and the other from the coffin.

The reason why the two of them wanted to use a centipede hanging on the mountain ladder to pick out the corpse from a distance was because they were worried that if they were too close to the purple gold coffin, the lid and board of the coffin would have been shaken apart. If something unknown in the coffin suddenly emerged, a few people would be able to take it out.

Catch it off guard, so stay far away to have the opportunity to react.

Unexpectedly, the two men once again used the bamboo ladder to lift the corpse diagonally a few feet, trying to pick it all out. However, the long ladder fell into a bow due to its weight, and the ladder body trembled and "creeped".

It makes a noise, but it can't be moved at all.

Partridge Whistle felt something strange in his heart, and thought to himself, "But it's weird. There are only the Yuan Dynasty general and the bald-tailed old monkey in this coffin. Why is it so heavy?"

In confusion, the Partridge Whistle stepped towards the side of the coffin. Unexpectedly, as soon as he moved his steps, he found a pair of giant black claws protruding from behind the zombie, like crab claws, grabbing the dead monkey tightly and holding on to the zombie.

From the back of the neck, a dark hook-like tail protruded.

When everyone saw it, it was true as Zhang Lin said, the Yuan Dynasty general did not fake the corpse, but there was a mountain scorpion as big as a dog that was greedy for the yin energy in the coffin.
