The cold and dark water, the weird colorful coffin, and the fact that there is a powerful zombie in the coffin. The combination of these things will make people feel chilled in their hearts no matter what, not to mention that the coffin shook slightly right in front of them.
I have seen so many big scenes that I almost don’t know what it means to be afraid, but the scene here successfully evoked a trace of fear in my heart.
Just such a shock made Xiao Chengqian and I freeze on the spot, and we didn't even dare to make any moves for a while.
After about two or three seconds, Xiao Chengqian glanced at me and asked me with his eyes what should I do? What else can be done? You can't be frightened by a coffin and go back, right? I took out the ink line from the backpack behind me, and the meaning was very obvious, seal the coffin, and then carry the coffin ashore without thinking about anything.
Seeing me take out the ink thread, Xiao Chengqian nodded and swam to the other side of the coffin, preparing to tie the ink thread with me.
At this time, I also cautiously approached the coffin. From being less than one meter away from it, to being so close to it that I could touch it with my hand. During this process, the coffin did not undergo any weird changes, which made me feel uncomfortable. My heart gradually calmed down.
Shaking off the ink line, I was about to start sealing the coffin. Xiao Chengqian also took one end of the ink line and started to work with me, but things were not as calm as we imagined. The moment the ink line touched the coffin, the coffin began to shake very obviously. It felt like the coffin was struggling. I was unprepared and was shocked by this sudden change.
If you are an experienced Taoist priest, you will generally think that this is a sign that the corpse is about to be raised. The zombies at this moment are the most terrifying and will usually be avoided. However, Xiao Chengqian and I have no choice at all underwater. At this moment, Xiao Chengqian After looking at me, I gritted my teeth and motioned for Xiao Chengqian to continue.
The whole process of sealing the coffin was not pleasant. The weird coffin would sometimes vibrate violently, and sometimes be quiet, and there would always be a vague sneer echoing in the dark water, as if there was a pair of eyes behind it. Watching us do all this coldly, mocking our overestimation of our capabilities.
I kept reciting the meditation mantra in my mind and tried to keep my coffin-sealing hand steady. In fact, I was not afraid of zombies. If it really got up and started fighting with me, I would calm down and make people afraid. In fact, it is this kind of situation where you know that there is a zombie and it keeps reminding you of its existence, but you never find the corpse and the symptoms of zombie appear again. This will keep people's hearts hanging.
The feeling of waiting for the test results is much harder than the feeling of knowing the results.
I don’t know how long it took to seal the coffin, but when the last thread of the ink line was bound, I felt that my whole body was almost stiff. Is the water temperature here so cold? The only good news is that after being tied with ink thread, the coffin finally stopped vibrating strangely, and the faint sneer disappeared.
I took a deep breath, and I clearly felt that the oxygen in the oxygen tank behind me was missing a little, which showed how long I had been holding it in. Through the flashlight, I could also see Xiao Chengqian's pale face.
I didn't want to be delayed underwater, so I held the two corners of the coffin with my hands and motioned for Xiao Chengqian to lift the coffin with me.
The coffin was not as heavy as expected, and with the help of the buoyancy of the water, Xiao Chengqian and I worked hard together and finally moved the coffin. However, the moment we both lifted it up, a black gas visible to the naked eye suddenly appeared. Emerging from the bottom of the coffin, at that moment I seemed to hear the shrill screams of thousands of people, followed by a real bone-breaking coldness.
This coldness was different from the coldness in the water. It almost froze me there the moment it appeared. At this moment, Xiao Chengqian and I raised our hands at the same time, raising them above our heads, preparing to hold the floating coffin. I don’t know why all of a sudden It became extremely heavy, and the sudden gravity suddenly forced me to kneel half in the mud at the bottom of the water. Xiao Chengqian was in the same situation, but our bodies were still stiff and unable to move!
And the moment I knelt down, the flashlight I was almost holding in my hand shone its slanted light on the bottom of the pool where the coffin was just now. I actually saw a lot of people sinking into the mud at the bottom of the pool. Ten skulls... And the empty eye sockets of the skulls seemed to be 'looking' at us. There were obviously no eyes, but I felt that the black eye sockets were full of resentment and sadness!
At that moment, I also understood that the resentment that soared into the sky just now was suppressed and absorbed by this coffin. The moment Xiao Chengqian and I lifted the coffin, we were accidentally hit by such strong resentment. No wonder the body It will become stiff suddenly.
As for the coffin suddenly becoming heavy, it should be that the zombies in the coffin were causing trouble. In conjunction with the resentment, it instantly suppressed our aura with its zombie aura. In fact, the weight did not change at all, but our aura became weaker after being collided with the resentment. , and then suppressed... When a person's aura is weak, he will mysteriously feel that everything is heavy.
Xiao Chengqian and I figured this out almost at the same time. As a Taoist priest, if you can't deal with this situation urgently, you won't be considered a Taoist priest.
Xiao Chengqian and I did not put down the coffin, but looked at each other, and then we used our skills at the same time, and shouted silently in the water. This was not a roaring skill in the complete sense, but a way to instantly enhance our aura. The method is just like a coward who, after being cornered, suddenly yells. At that moment, everyone will clearly feel that this person's aura has improved, and they will instinctively feel that they should not continue. If you provoke him, you instinctively feel like retreating.
Although that person did not become infinitely powerful in an instant... This way of roaring to enhance the aura is based on this principle. However, compared with ordinary roaring to vent anger, this Taoist method is more sophisticated. There are many more skills.
The improvement in aura allowed Xiao Chengqian and I to get rid of this heavy pressure, and our stiff bodies gradually recovered.
We didn’t have any unnecessary communication, and almost at the same time we chose to carry the coffin upstream. Before the coffin was opened, a lot of weird things happened with the coffin. If we delay further, who knows what will happen
However, I still couldn't help but take a look at the mud where the human skulls were buried. I don't know how many human skeletons I would find if I dug deeper. There should be people who were accidentally confused by Yaya, but there should also be vicious fish. For those dragged here for Patel, the bottom of this pool is actually another 'blood pool', but the flowing water has taken away the sins here...
Nothing unnecessary happened on the way back, but the cold breath that kept coming from the whole coffin still tortured Xiao Chengqian and me. If we were ordinary people, we would have been completely absorbed in the process of ascending. Frozen, then sank to the bottom of the water again with the coffin.
Xiao Chengqian and I are resisting with our own strength!
With a 'wow' sound, Xiao Chengqian and I finally surfaced from the water. The moment we saw the sun, I felt that the sun was so warm for the first time. Even though there were only strands of sunshine in this deep pool, it seemed like we were in an instant. It relieved the coldness in my heart.
Above the water, the coffin finally became 'normal'. Although the morning sunlight was not strong, it was full of yang energy. It could at least temporarily suppress some 'abnormal movements'. After all, the zombies in the coffin were sealed by the master. It's suppressed, and it can't cause much trouble!
Xiao Chengqian and I held the coffin and gradually approached the rock. Uncle Johnny also dropped a roll of rope at the right time. After all, the zombies in the coffin had inevitably come into contact with Xiao Chengqian and me. If there are more, it will be even more severe when the corpse is lifted up. This situation must be avoided. Except for Xiao Chengqian and I, no one else can touch the coffin.
Xiao Chengqian and I pulled the rope that Uncle Johnny threw down and tied the coffin. Then while Uncle Johnny was pulling the coffin, we quickly climbed out of the water and climbed up the rock. Then we didn't even have time to take off our diving suits. Together with Uncle Johnny, we grabbed the rope and pulled the coffin up the rock.
On the rock, except for the three of us, everyone stayed away from the coffin for about two meters, and sprinkled a layer of glutinous rice mixed with black ash around the outside of where they were standing! Needless to say about glutinous rice, the black ash is from the most yang plant, just like the ashes from burning calamus. In fact, it is also mixed with egg liquid. After all, chicken is also a yang thing, and eggs also contain a lot of nutrients. Yang Qi is something that people in the world know very little about. When a large amount of chicken blood is needed, but one does not want to harm living beings and cause many evils, eggs are usually used instead of chicken blood, although the effect is not that good.
As for black dog blood, Taoists will not use it unless it is absolutely necessary. Such a killing is too serious, even though black dog blood is the best for breaking evil spells.
All preparations were in place. I looked at the time and saw that it was still about half an hour before three-quarters noon... So Xiao Chengqian and I took off our diving suits with confidence. We were not in a hurry and dragged the coffin until the morning. There is no harm in being exposed to the sun, and it can suppress this guy to a certain extent. The only regret is that there is obviously not enough sunshine here.
I lit a cigarette and took the time to regain my strength, while Uncle Johnny also handed me and Xiao Chengqian a bowl of ginger soup.
"Chengyi, it's the moment when the body is lifted up. Remember to suppress Patel at that moment. Leave other matters to me." Looking at Xiao Chengqian and I drinking ginger soup, Uncle Johnny felt uneasy. He repeated something that he had repeated countless times.
But we didn’t find Uncle Johnny too verbose. We could feel his nervousness. At this time, the magic weapon like the soul-calling flag that the master had used to position himself was also erected on the rock, as if he really wanted to It's like summoning spirits.
