Chapter 182: The Corpse Chaser
Zhou Fengchen looked at the proprietress and said, "Chase the corpse?" โ
The proprietress frowned, "It should be a team to drive corpses!" โ
"Check it out." Zhou Fengchen fastened his shoelaces, put on his leather bag, and rushed out of the door with a knife, and the proprietress hurriedly followed behind.
The two stepped on the snow and quietly touched the direction of the bell and the horn from the forest, and it didn't take long for them to reach the vicinity, Zhou Fengchen pulled the proprietress to lie behind a raised snowdrift, and looked up.
I saw two figures not far away, the leader was wearing a green cloth robe, a green cloth hat, carrying a cloth bag, holding a bell in his left hand and a gong in his right hand.
And behind him was a thin man, wearing a black robe, wearing a tall blanket hat, and a few yellow paper charms faintly pressed under the hat, he couldn't see his face clearly, and he walked like a normal person.
Zhou Fengchen was stunned, lowered his voice and said, "Is this corpse walking like a normal person?"
The proprietress also lowered her voice, "Yes, that's how you walk, I heard Axi Gong say that only when the soul is blown up will it jump and pounce." โ
Zhou Fengchen nodded and stopped talking.
"Jingle bellโ"
"Yin people are in a hurry, don't get close to the living!"
A person and a corpse gradually came to the front of him, the leading corpse chaser paused slightly, patted the snowflakes on his head, glanced at the direction of the small temple, shook his head, "dong" sounded the small gong, and continued on the road, the dead man behind him was covered with snowflakes, and the high black blanket hat covered his face, and he was lifeless, giving people a weird and terrible feeling.
Zhou Fengchen was looking at it intently, wondering how this corpse walked by itself, could it be that there was a corpse in his stomach? At this time, the proprietress suddenly let out an inexplicable "ah".
Zhou Fengchen hurriedly covered her mouth.
The corpse chaser was shocked, and looked surprised, "Oh" pulled out a short knife, "Who?" โ
There was a bit of viciousness and ruthlessness in his voice.
Zhou Fengchen covered the mouth of the proprietress, quietly lowered her head, and said nothing.
After a while, the corpse catcher's muttering came from outside, "Damn, where did the wild cat come from?" โ
Then he shouted slogans and hit the road.
When they were far away, Zhou Fengchen let go of the proprietress and asked, "What are you shouting?"
The proprietress took a deep breath, her voice trembled, and said, "This corpse chaser is Aque!"
"Who is Aque? Do you know? Zhou Fengchen asked suspiciously.
The proprietress said, "Didn't I tell you?" He is the senior brother of Axi Palace, and I saw him die with my own eyes! โ
Zhou Fengchen remembered this person, the old man who informed the proprietress of the death of the Axi Palace, and couldn't help frowning: "You mean, he was already dead at that time, but now he has come back from the dead and ran out to chase the corpse?"
"Yes!" It was even more terrifying that something strange happened to someone close to her, and the proprietress turned pale and trembled all over.
Zhou Fengchen pondered several possibilities, but he was still a little confused, there was no need, and asked, "Is it possible that you made a mistake, or ......?"
The proprietress immediately shook her head, "No!" I can't be wrong, I also learned something from Axi Gong, he was poisoned by corpses at that time! The corpse poison attacks the heart, and the face is purple! โ
Zhou Fengchen saw that her expression was very wrong, so he waved his hand: "Why don't you go back to the temple first, I'll try him."
The proprietress nodded and turned back.
Zhou Fengchen was a little under his feet, and ghostly chased towards the corpse chaser.
It didn't take long to arrive not far behind the corpse of a person, he had the heart to be tempted, squatted behind a big tree, took out a pair of five emperor coins, pinched the seal and chanted a mantra, and quietly spit out: "Go!"
Five copper coins gurgled past, leaving a narrow mark on the snow, and when they reached the dead body's back, they snapped against its back.
Zhou Fengchen pinched the seal and commanded from afar, "Lie down!" โ
Strangely enough, however, the corpse didn't buy it at all, and the corpse chaser didn't notice it.
It's weird, what kind of method is used to drive out corpses?
Zhou Fengchen thought about it, sneered, bounced, and a few people got up and down in front of the corpse chaser, blocking the way, waving the knife with one hand, and making a "whew" sound of breaking the wind.
"Yin ......" The corpse chaser's trumpet stopped abruptly, stopped the dead body, and squinted his eyes, "This friend, what's the matter?" โ
The corpse chaser looked to be in his fifties, with a mustache and a thin, shriveled build, but his eyes were quite bright.
Zhou Fengchen said in a low voice: "Robbery!"
The corpse chaser laughed dumbly, "My friend is joking, as soon as I drive the corpse of the craftsman has no foreign wealth, what can you rob?" โ
Zhou Fengchen said: "I don't rob money, come to rob an explanation?"
The corpse chaser asked curiously, "Is there still this kind of robbery?" What do you want to say? โ
Zhou Fengchen said, "Your name is Aque?"
The corpse chaser was stunned for a moment, and his face was gloomy, "Who are you?" โ
"It doesn't matter who I am." Zhou Fengchen said: "I heard that you died three years ago, why did you appear alive now?"
Akui's face changed drastically, and he couldn't help but take two steps back and take out a knife, "Are you...... The people of the crane old dragon, or the people of Ah Tupo? โ
Crane old dragon? Ah Tupo? It seems that there are two waves of people, Zhou Fengchen wanted to pretend to be it, but after thinking about it, it was unnecessary, so he said: "No, take it easy, I don't have any hostility towards you, I'm just curious, help a friend ask."
When Akui heard this, he looked him up and down, and asked with a sigh of relief, "Who is your friend?"
"You don't need to know." Zhou Fengchen said.
Akui glanced at the knife in his hand, "Since you asked, I won't hide it from you, my senior brothers were all killed, and I couldn't help myself, so I faked my death to avoid the disaster, but unfortunately I didn't have a place to eat recently, so I had to go back to my old business and take his vote." โ
Zhou Fengchen asked curiously: "Who killed your junior disciples, and who are you hiding from?" It's a Tupo and ...... Crane old dragon them? โ
Akui smiled, "There's no need to tell each other, please brother, don't embarrass me." โ
"Okay!" Zhou Fengchen stepped aside, "Let's go!" โ
"Farewell!" Akui nodded, and when he led the corpse past him, his body tensed up instantly, and his breathing stopped, until he walked more than ten meters and saw that Zhou Fengchen really had no intention of making a move, so he was obviously relieved, shook the bell again, and shouted the trumpet.
Zhou Fengchen watched him leave, and wanted to take off the copper coin on the corpse, thinking about it, if the boss lady figured out something, she would still look for him, so it would be a good introduction.
โฆโฆ
It was midnight, everything was silent, the snow flakes were falling silently, the forest was quiet, Zhou Fengchen stepped on the snow and creaked back to the small temple, thinking about how to sum up with the proprietress and the proprietress, and was stunned when he looked up at the door.
The torches in the temple were extinguished at some point, and the snoring of the monk Yuanzhi was gone, it was dark inside, and there were many messy footprints in front of the door, he was sure that this was not left by him and the proprietress and a few people.
He had a bad premonition, drew his knife and quietly approached the door, listened attentively, there was no breath in the temple, and hurriedly rushed in.
There was no one inside, and the proprietress and the Yuan Zhi monk were gone!
Zhou Fengchen felt his head buzz, what's wrong? That's a lot of work, people?
Suspecting that they might have gone to the toilet together, he ran out the door again and shouted twice, but there was no response except for a few night birds flapping their wings and flying away.
Finished! What a problem!
He rushed back to the temple again, pinched his handprints, and faintly felt a gloomy breath, I don't know what it was, I looked around, several people's luggage bags, including the umbrella containing Chu Xiaoling, were gone, the fire was a little messy, and three charcoals were scattered aside.
This is obviously something that happened too suddenly, the monk Yuanzhi resisted, but he couldn't beat the other party, and after being treated, the other party also took away the luggage and umbrella.
But...... Didn't Chu Xiaoling and Xiaobao resist? Could it be that there are still metaphysical masters in it?
Thinking of this, he stared at it, and found that the rattle containing Xiaobao was thrown in the corner of the side, and he quickly picked it up.
