"What? Almost transformed into a zombie." I couldn't help but yell out in surprise. The zombie that was cultivated was completely different from the zombie I met in the amusement park. That zombie was at most a defective product. It just drank some zombie blood. The real zombie that was cultivated was just like General Meng Yi. It could fly and hide. It was as awesome as a person with special abilities.
"Well, this jumping corpse is also the undisputed corpse king in the world except for zombies. Think about it, if someone of his level comes, can we defeat him?" Li Mingyao smiled bitterly, as if we don't have much confidence in ourselves.
"You can't say that. Where is the head of your Maoshan Sect, Li Shigao? Isn't he also very powerful?" I scratched my head and asked.
"It's different. The headmaster has returned to Maoshan now. And he can't leave Maoshan at all during this period." Li Mingyao said to me.
"No. Didn't he come to Fuze Hall to recuperate some time ago?" I said it rather vaguely. After all, I still had to give this old man Li Shigao some face. I couldn't say in front of Li Mingyao that their leader's wallet was stolen by a pickpocket.
"Ahem. That time was different. That time they went to Harbin for a meeting secretly. No one made it public. But now, there are probably many monsters in Maoshan who are watching with eager eyes. They just want the leader to leave and then attack Maoshan. Maoshan has offended many monsters in the past thousands of years. I don't know how many monsters want Maoshan to perish." Li Mingyao explained to me.
"Yeah. That's true. Forget it. There's no point in thinking about it." I shrugged. Suddenly I remembered: "Oh, where did the drought bone appear this time?"
"The Hanba bone should have appeared in the ghost market. I don't know the details. But the yin energy in the ghost market has increased for some reason recently. I think this is the precursor to the Hanba bone's accident." Li Mingyao said to me.
I nodded. Speaking of the ghost market, I remembered the great Taoist Master Yi whom I met in the ghost market at that time. He saved my life back then. I wonder if he is still in the ghost market now.
In this way, we began to wait for ten days in this Fengdu Hotel. During this period, there were corpse monsters attacking every two days. And there were casualties every time. The first time, four Taoists died. When I heard this, I realized how lucky I was. Later, we suffered a great loss due to the first attack of the corpse monster. So every night, we would be doubly careful and leave people to guard the night.
Even so, many people were killed or injured. But I was relatively safe. Although Li Mingyao was haunted by a ghost, the ghost was not just a decoration. He had a strong ability to sense danger. Li Mingyao could sense it ten seconds before the corpse appeared and then notify me. That's why I was able to survive in such an environment.
To be honest, I really regret coming to Fengdu. I originally planned to come here to watch the fun. But who could have thought it would be so dangerous. I would be attacked by corpse monsters from time to time. But the monsters upstairs are said to be not doing well either. They are also often attacked by corpse monsters.
Finally, ten days passed. At this time, we had a group of more than 30 Taoists. We took a boat to the ghost town of Fengdu. The city of Fengdu and the ghost town were separated by the Yangtze River. This was mentioned in the previous article. The entrance to the ghost market was in the small forest behind the ghost town.
We were not the only ones crossing the river. Behind us, that is, under the river, there were many monsters with good swimming skills following us. The ones with poor swimming skills were in the ship's warehouse. Although both sides didn't like us very much, they couldn't afford to fight over personal grudges when facing a powerful enemy.
Soon the boat landed. It was not the peak tourist season, so there were many animals following our group of more than 30 people. Naturally, they were very dazzling.
We didn't stop. We went straight through the ghost town and came to the grove at the back. When I arrived at the grove, I felt that it sounded familiar. And the huge stone. At this time, the Taoist priest Yang Haoran, who was leading the group, also walked forward, fumbled around, and opened the mechanism. There were a few young men who looked about my age among these Taoist priests. When they saw the huge stone open by itself, they were also very surprised like I was at the beginning. They looked around, as if they wanted to know the principle of this mechanism.
In comparison, those who are a little older are relatively calm. I have been here once before and I am not surprised at all.
"Okay, fellows, let's go in together." Yang Haoran waved his hand at the people outside and led the way in. The group of monsters were really rude and rushed in before us. We followed them.
Still the same. After walking for a while, thick fog began to appear around us. Not long after, noisy voices came from the front. Then the thick fog slowly faded. A small town stood in front of us. I was very calm. After all, I had been here once. But those young Taoists, even Li Mingyao, were the same. They all looked surprised. It seemed that they had never been to the ghost market before. They had never thought that the ghost market would be like this.
"Everyone, don't talk after you go in. Follow my wisdom in everything." Yang Haoran looked at everyone. Then he took out a copper coin and put it in his mouth. Then he led the team in.
It was still the same as before. People were coming and going. It looked very lively. But they were all wearing ancient costumes. We were all wearing outer clothes, such as sportswear. There was even one person wearing a suit. We felt a little out of place walking in this ancient town.
On the contrary, the group of monsters adapted to the environment as soon as they entered. After all, many of them grew up in various ghost markets and were not unfamiliar with ghost markets. And those who originally lived in this ghost market had no idea that we were looking for Hanba bones. After these monsters came in, we told them our goal. And they were naturally very welcoming. But there was one request: they could not speak human language.
Yang Haoran was of course very happy. He immediately agreed. Then he used the demon language to communicate with a demon on the other side. Then both sides laughed. It seemed that the chat was quite good. Then Yang Haoran brought a group of us to the inn that Brother Qingfeng brought me to before. Many places in the inn have not changed. Then Yang Haoran didn't know what he used, but he actually booked this inn for us cultivators to have a good rest and welcome the appearance of Hanba bone in the evening.
