I was shocked to hear this and hurriedly asked Lu Fei to carry me over. As soon as I entered the room, I saw Qu Mo, Ma Yunxi and Wang Zijun all looked serious, but they didn't dare to show it, as if they didn't dare to let Shen Bing know about this.
Shen Bing was lying on the bed. When she saw me, she curled her lips and said, "Country bumpkin, my stomach hurts so badly, it feels like my belly is going to tear apart!"
In order to ease the depressing atmosphere, I deliberately smiled and said, "We are both good friends, and you are not pregnant, so why do you have a stomachache?" As he spoke, Lu Fei put me down beside her bed and lifted the broken leg onto the bed.
"Go, a dog can't spit out ivory!"
I smiled and looked carefully at her brows. There was a faint black air flowing. I couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. Damn it, why didn't I see it last night? She was hit by the evil spirit of the corpse. Unfortunately, I missed the opportunity to expel it in time, and now it has penetrated deep into her skin!
You can imagine what the situation is without even looking at her belly. I frowned and turned my gaze to Ma Yunxi. She should have a way to deal with this.
But Ma Yunxi drooped his eyelids and looked at the ground, as if there was some hidden secret that he could not say in person.
I rolled my eyes and said, "It's okay, I was just possessed by an evil spirit last night. I need to drink magic water for three consecutive days to recover."
"What kind of evil spirit is this? It requires drinking magic water for three days?" Wang Zijun was stunned.
Qu Mo quickly winked at him, and the monkey stopped asking.
After letting Shen Bing drink a bowl of talisman water, I told her to sleep for a while. We all went to have breakfast and brought the food up to her room later.
I had no mood to eat, so I went out and called everyone to my room. Wang Zijun and Lu Fei couldn't wait to ask what kind of evil spirit had befallen me.
Before I could say anything, Ma Yunxi said, "It's corpse poison. Maybe her skin had close contact with the corpse, which led to the invasion of corpse poison. It has begun to rot. With my ability, it is..." At this point, she bit her lip, looking sad. Needless to say, we all knew that she was powerless to save her.
Thinking back to last night, she hugged Chen Liran who was hanging, and lifted her clothes up, causing Chen Liran to kick her exposed belly with both feet. I sighed. Ma Yunxi couldn't do anything, so I was even more worried. According to the ancient books of Maoshan, there are three types of corpse poisons: the first is the corpse poison of evil spirits, the second is the evil spirit of zombies, and the third is the poison spots of corpses. The first two are more fierce, and those who are infected will die instantly. The last type of corpse spot poison is transmitted through skin contact. If treated in time, it will be fine, but as long as the corpse spot poison penetrates into the skin, it will be really difficult to deal with, and there is no good prescription in the ancient books.
Judging from Chen Liran’s situation last night, she belongs to the third type, raising corpse poison spots!
Qu Mo asked me anxiously: "Is there no other way?"
I touched my nose and bit my lips until they were almost broken, but I couldn't think of any solution. Suddenly, an idea flashed in my mind. So I said to Ma Yunxi, "First, apply glutinous rice flour on Shen Bing's stomach. This will slow down the decay of the muscles." Then I turned to Lu Fei and said, "Let's go to Gui Village!"
Wang Zijun also came along, and the three of us drove into Gui Village and stopped outside the Yangxian Temple. The streets were deserted in broad daylight, with not a single person in sight. It must be that the strange events that happened in the past two days have scared everyone so much that they dare not go out.
The temple door was not locked, so we went straight in and asked Wang Zijun and Lu Fei to search the temple separately. What were they looking for? A mirror!
Now, there is really no other way except to ask for help from the mirror god. Since the bad cat that Shen Bing mentioned is here to protect her, maybe the bronze mirror where it hides is here. But it is not certain, because the mirror god encountered Shen Bing's soul outside Henan and followed it all the way here. It is hard to say whether its lair is here. We are just trying our luck.
After searching for a long time, we found that the temple was not big and we did not find the bronze mirror. The three of us sat on the ground and sighed in frustration. It seemed that we had to go back to the provincial capital and ask for help. If we took the highway, we should be able to arrive in seven or eight hours.
But when I left, I was still unwilling to leave, so I recited the incantation to invite the mirror god. Unexpectedly, a strange cool breeze suddenly blew in the temple, blowing up the dust on the altar. I was moved, and Wang Zijun, Lu Fei and I looked at each other, wondering if the mirror god had come.
Sure enough, a black cat appeared in the flying dust!
With a pair of yellow eyes open and a black and white tail raised, it tilted its head and stared at the three of us.
The three of us were immediately excited. It was truly the mirror god!
Just as I was about to speak, I heard the black cat speaking in human language: "What do you want from me?" The voice was shriller than a dead mouse, but the flavor was very different, with a strong Henan accent. It seemed that this scoundrel cat had always lived in Henan.
"I'm asking you to save people!" Wang Zijun blurted out.
The black cat rolled its yellow eyes upwards, and it looked like it was hanging itself, with a large amount of white in its eyes. It said in a very condescending manner, "There are rules for praying to the mirror god. Don't you know what I like to eat? I won't take the job without offerings."
Damn, he’s just like a dead rat!
“Yes, I know you like to eat roast chicken, but I didn’t bring any because I came here in a hurry. If you are willing to come with us, we will offer you ten roast chickens and two bottles of Laobaifen!” I thought to myself that the Mirror God’s liking for roast chicken should be a rule formed after the Little Black Chicken Spirit was suppressed. Not only Dead Rat likes to eat it, but the other six sects are the same. Otherwise, why would there be only such a hobby circulated among the people
When the black cat heard about ten roast chickens, its eyes rolled down immediately. It looked more greedy than a dead mouse, and its saliva soaked the hair at the corners of its mouth.
"I think I helped a little kid named Shen Bing. I only gave him two bottles of Lao Bai Fen. Isn't that too little? Add five more bottles!"
Fuck that uncle, he’s much greedier than a dead rat. How come all the great gods are so heartless
But now, no matter if it's seven bottles of Lao Bai Fen, or even seventy bottles, I don't care. I hurriedly said to it, "Okay, add five more bottles. Can you come with us now?"
The black cat stretched out its front paws and scratched its beard, then said with a grin, "I already know what you guys are up to. Is it Shen Bing who's in trouble again?"
Well, it knows everything, and it wants sacrifices again. It seems that there is a way to cure Shen Bing. Thinking of this, I was excited and said to it with a trembling voice: "Yes, she is in trouble. She may have been infected with the corpse-raising poison spot."
The black cat nodded: "Yes, I knew this a long time ago. To be exact, it's the zombie poison spot!"
"Zombies?" The three of us asked in surprise at the same time.
I have heard the term "walking corpse" before. It comes from Mr. Shi from Beisanpo, Northeast China. It was said that walking corpses carry sky lanterns to light their hearts and rush on the road, seemingly with infinite strength. But this thing does not exist in the ancient books of Maoshan, nor in the Great Wuliang Technique. The two classics only record zombies, raising corpses, and corpse transformation. But these three types include many different types. For example, raising corpses has the most categories, raising corpses alive and controlling souls, and specially raised zombies also belong to the category of raising corpses.
When I heard the term zombie, I guessed it might be a kind of zombie. But judging from what happened last night, Chen Liran turned into a jumping corpse right after she died, so it shouldn't be a zombie that was raised, right
