Before Chu Xiao had time to think about this question, the person next to him who was pointed out by Uncle Jiu had already avoided the spot.
"Everyone, get dressed and prepare to open the coffin!"
As soon as Uncle Jiu finished speaking, there were sudden bursts of strange cries from crows all around, and a cold wind blew, making people feel cold on their backs, and the atmosphere suddenly became weird.
Chu Xiao's intuition immediately alerted him, and his aura locked on the source of all this weirdness, which was the plum blossom coffin in front of everyone.
"Open the coffin!"
Four laborers stood at one corner of the coffin, and with their combined efforts, the lid of the plum blossom coffin was opened.
Woo! A dark evil spirit rushed out of the coffin, causing Uncle Jiu to frown and look worried.
Chu Xiao also looked into the coffin curiously, and saw a dead body in a green official robe lying quietly inside, with black air surrounding it. Even under the scorching sun, it was difficult to see its appearance clearly.
"This!" Uncle Jiu was shocked. With his level of Taoism, he could tell at a glance that there was something fishy about Old Master Ren's corpse. The corpse was from twenty years ago, but it hasn't turned into bones yet, which shows that the corpse is extremely evil.
Chu Xiao also sensed the weirdness of Old Master Ren's corpse. He suddenly remembered that he had once exchanged a book of the Dead Scripture from Zheng Zha, and most of the spells in it were related to corpses.
At this moment, I can't help but think, what are the differences between Egyptian mummies and Chinese zombies
What happened next was just like the original plot development. Uncle Jiu suggested that Ren Fa cremate the body on the spot. However, Ren Fa, who was hoping to relocate the grave and revive the Ren family business, would never agree to that. Naturally, he asked Uncle Jiu to find a better acupuncture point for his father.
Uncle Jiu had no choice but to pull Old Master Ren's body back to the charity cemetery and prepare to find a new burial place for him the next day.
Chu Xiao remained silent. As far as he could remember, Old Master Ren's corpse had turned into a corpse in the charity cemetery. Now, judging from the actual situation, it happened in the past few days.
Chu Xiao subconsciously looked at Ren Fa. It seemed that as soon as Old Master Ren turned into a corpse, he killed Ren Fa that night.
This seems like a good opportunity to get lotus petals.
If you save Ren Fa, there is a high chance that you will get lotus petals.
Therefore, Chu Xiao decided to follow Ren Fa temporarily to see if he could stay at his house for a few nights tonight and take this opportunity to condense the first lotus petal.
After Old Master Ren's affairs were arranged, everyone began to disperse. Four laborers carried the plum blossom coffin towards the charity cemetery.
Uncle Jiu ordered his two apprentices Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai to light fragrant incense everywhere.
Ren Fa took the initiative to step forward and said to Chu Xiao, "Mr. Chu, my father's work has been completed. Come back to the village with me!"
Chu Xiao nodded and thanked him. His eyes fell on the woman in gorgeous green clothes standing next to Ren Fa. She was fresh, elegant and full of energy. He thought it must be Ren Fa's daughter Ren Tingting.
Chu Xiao thought to himself that although Ren Fazhang was rude and ugly, his daughter was extraordinary in appearance.
In response to this, Chu Xiao just sighed and did not take it to heart. After all, Chu Xiao only wanted to see Old Master Ren's transformed corpse and save Ren Fa to condense the first lotus petal.
Chu Xiao, Ren Fu and others walked along the road and soon arrived at the village.
"Mr. Chu, we have arrived at the village! Do you have a place to stay tonight?" Ren Fa asked with concern.
"Not yet, and I don't know where to stay. Does Master Ren have any recommendations?"
The two of them had their own thoughts in their minds, but they just happened to bump into each other.
One wants to invite someone to live in his home, and the other wants to live in someone else's home.
"Why don't you stay at my house? My Ren Mansion is always hospitable!"
"Sorry to bother you then!"
The two of them hit it off almost immediately. Ren Tingting, who was watching from the side, was filled with anger. How could her father be so reckless as to casually invite outsiders to live in his home? What if Chu Xiao was a bad guy
But Ren Tingting did not say it out loud on the spot. She pulled her cousin, the security captain, aside and expressed her concerns.
In order to win the favor of his cousin, the eldest cousin who loves to show off naturally would not guess what his cousin's father-in-law was thinking. He took the initiative to propose to bring his men to guard the Ren Mansion tonight to prevent any villains from causing trouble.
Although Ren Fa verbally scolded A Wei, he was also afraid of Chu Xiao in his heart, and finally acquiesced to A Wei's proposal.
Let me make an advertisement for the novel app I’ve been using recently, which is supported by both Android and Apple phones!
Chu Xiao didn't care about this. Whether Awei was in Ren Mansion tonight or not had no effect on him at all.
With Chu Xiao's current strength, he would never have any intersection with them if it weren't for the lotus petals.
Two days later.
It's night!
As night fell, the village soon fell into darkness.
In this era, electricity was not yet popular. Only wealthy people like the Ren family had the financial resources to buy electricity, and they only turned it on for a short while before going to bed.
call!
A cold wind blew by.
Chu Xiao stood alone on the roof, the moonlight shining on him, making him look particularly poetic.
Chu Xiao turned on the breath sensing function, and the entire Ren Mansion was shrouded in his breath. At this moment, Master Ren was reading in the study room, Ren Tingting had already undressed and gone to bed, and all the servants had also gone to bed.
Ah Wei, who kept saying that he would conduct night training during the day, slept deeper than pigs in the back guest room with his men.
Chu Xiao shrugged helplessly and continued to wait on the roof.
Chu Xiao has been waiting here every night for the past two days. Tonight is much colder than the previous two nights.
Moreover, in the past two days, Ren Fa had tried to probe Chu Xiao's identity and background more than once, and he was almost impatient and wanted to kick Chu Xiao out.
If the zombies don't come again tonight, Chu Xiao will leave Ren Mansion and find a hotel nearby to stay in.
Time passed by minute by minute, and it was unknown how much time had passed. Suddenly, in the dark and terrifying night, a series of footsteps caught Chu Xiao's attention. A series of clear thudding sounds came from far away towards Ren Mansion.
Chu Xiao sensed the breath and saw a black shadow jumping towards Ren Mansion.
“Zombies are coming!”
The zombie's unique way of walking made Chu Xiao recognize it at once. In addition, the difference in its aura from that of an ordinary person was too great, dark, rancid and evil, which made Chu Xiao feel uncomfortable.
Chu Xiao stood on the roof, looking down at the zombies. He saw that the zombies did not come in directly from the front door, but bypassed the servants on duty at the front door, jumped over the wall, and went straight to the study where Ren Fa was.
"Huh?!" Chu Xiao couldn't help but feel puzzled when he saw the zombie's actions. Could it be that this zombie had intelligence and knew how to bypass the front door, climb over the wall, and come directly to Ren Fa? !
Chu Xiao spread out his body and performed the Flying Dance Technique to float in the air, hovering above Ren Fa's study, staring at the zombies hiding in the darkness.
The zombies were seen standing in the darkness, like wild beasts lurking in the dark, waiting for their prey to let down their guard before delivering a fatal blow.
"It seems to have intelligence?"
Chu Xiao became more and more certain that the zombies had developed a high level of intelligence, otherwise it would be difficult to explain the current situation.
"I never thought that after humans die, their bodies can actually undergo such miraculous changes." Chu Xiao couldn't help but look at the zombies in the dark, and a question arose in his heart, "If the newly born zombies have such intelligence, then how powerful will the evolved zombies be?"
Chu Xiao remembered a post he had read in his previous life, in which it was written that people who turned into zombies would definitely try their best to drink the blood of their loved ones in order to complete their transformation and turn themselves into a more powerful zombie.
Chu Xiao believed that he had the strength to crush the zombie in front of him, but what about the evolved zombie? Could it surprise Chu Xiao
Chu Xiao sensed Ren Fa's aura in the study and secretly came up with a new plan in his mind.
Since Old Master Ren killed Ren Fa, he will evolve. After Ren Fa turns into a zombie, there is a high chance that lotus petals will be condensed by killing the zombie Ren Fa.
Then why did Chu Xiao want to save Ren Fa now? Why not let the zombies kill Ren Fa and see to what extent the zombies can evolve after sucking the blood of their loved ones
Although Ren Fa seems to be a good person, he actually approaches Chu Xiao just to take advantage of Chu Xiao.
After spending these few days together, Chu Xiao has seen through Ren Fa's face as a profiteer.
He no longer had any intention of saving Ren Fa who was blinded by greed.
After all, Ren Fa was going to die in the original plot, and he was just following the development of the plot.
Thinking of this, Chu Xiao disappeared, and the next second, he returned to his room.
After a few breaths, a scream was heard from Ren Fa's study.
Ren Fa is dead! The zombies are gone!
