However, most of the bodies have not been preserved, but there is no sign of damage to their clothing. Judging from the clothes they are wearing, these people are all young people in Miao Mountain, without exception, and most of them are Miao people.

"How can there be so many dead people? I knew that we didn't live in a ghost place yesterday? Brothers, open it all and take a look, don't leave one behind, maybe this old goblin is hiding in it. Ma Chengfeng knocked open all the coffin lids one by one.

He now has several common features in every coffin, whether it is rotten or not, first, there is a yellow paper charm on his forehead, but the cinnabar character on the yellow paper symbol has long disappeared; secondly, the corpse had a very thin black thread tied to both ankles; Third, these corpses have a very rough small wooden sign hanging on their waists, and the signs all say the exact time of death, and one of them is the oldest, even in the early years of the Qing Dynasty.

"Shhh...... Something is wrong, I just saw so many coffins and thought we had strayed into the Yizhuang on Miao Mountain last night, so it seems...... I'm afraid this is not an ordinary Yizhuang, right? Ma Chengfeng smacked his tongue.

Chu Tianyue peeked at the door with the mute child in her arms and asked him what was going on inside. In the end, he is a professional archaeology department, and studying ancient corpses is Chu Tianyue's specialty, and he is much more experienced than Ma Chengfeng. Ma Chengfeng gave Chu Tianyue a rough description of the common characteristics of these ancient corpses.

"Oh, I think that's how it should be...... Cheng Feng, this is indeed Yizhuang, but this Yizhuang was specially opened by their Miao people for corpse chasers. You see, what is pasted on the door of their heads, the eight achievements are the corpse charms, and the ink fountain line on the feet is to ward off evil spirits, according to the history of the wild, the corpse chasers rarely go double, they think that it is unlucky to be double, and in addition, they can't go one, because if you only catch one zombie at a time, you will make too little money. Chu Tianyue said that in ancient times, Xiangxi was a poor and remote country, and the local conditions were not as good as now.

At that time, the mountains were full of poisonous beasts, and even the local Miao people often suffered deaths and injuries, so the average life expectancy of the seedlings living in the cottage was not long. Most of their ways of making money are almost all tea picking, medicine picking, and hunting in the mountains. There are many people near the cottage, and there is definitely no one. Therefore, they had to travel hundreds of miles to the wild mountains where no one had traveled to find them. Once the guest dies, the corpse will not come back, because Miao Mountain is very rugged, and it is impossible to walk the car.

When the bodies of these dead guests are found, they are generally stored in a local village, which is purely public welfare and does not charge money. After their families paid for a corpse chaser, they sent the corpse back to their hometown from hundreds of miles away. Like the dead bodies in these coffins, it is estimated that they are ownerless corpses, or they are barren people at home who can't afford to hire a corpse chaser, so they have been preserved to this day.

Of course, there is also a situation that the Miao people go out to do business, such as going to Yunnan, Guichuan and other places, and also die in other provinces, so it is more expensive to hire a corpse chaser, and ordinary Miao people can only watch the corpses of their relatives die in other places.

She said that the ink fountain line on the feet of the corpse was tied by the corpse keeper in Yizhuang after the corpse was collected, just like the corpse talisman, to prevent the corpse from changing. When the corpse chaser arrives, cast a spell to get them to stand up, and then cut the ink fountain line short. "If you look carefully, whether it is the wooden sign on the waist of these people, there is no very accurate time, and it is generally only accurate to the year, month and day at most."

Ma Chengfeng took a closer look, and really let Chu Tianyue say that there were only two corpses, and the time was also written. The rest of the corpses are only written about an approximate date. It seems that these seedlings are really pitiful people. Fortunately, the years are too long, and the corpses are exposed, so they are not proudly preserved, otherwise, this would be a big room of zombies.

"Cheng Feng, again, come over and take a look, what kind of play is this?" In the corner, there was a stone coffin, the shape and material of this coffin were not the same as other coffins, very heavy, but the coffin lid revealed a small gap, he was lying on the coffin lid and looking through the gap.

Ma Chengfeng walked over, pushed him away and looked inside, there was indeed something inside, because the gap was too small, I could only be sure that it should not be a person's corpse, it looked like some kind of animal, that guy was now only skinny and bone, and it was estimated that it was also a corpse. The two tried together, but the stone coffin lid was four or five hundred catties, and they couldn't lift it at all. Ma Chengfeng had no choice but to roll up his arms and net his sleeves and cut it open with the Seven Star Blade.

The Seven Star Blade doesn't want to cut stones, even if the steel plate meets it, it is as soft as tofu, and a small square opening is cut in a few clicks. The two of them held up their flashlights and shone inside, ouch hey...... What the hell is this? In the stone coffin, there was a big guy with white flowers.

It should have wings on the left and right, a large head that is flat and long, and two rows of small fangs in its mouth protruding, if it is a bird, there is not much hair on the skin, only a thin layer, and it has white hair all over. It also has a long, slender tail that resembles a traditional spike. This big guy has to spread his wings, and it's estimated that he will be two meters tall!

The inner edge of the stone coffin was plastered with all kinds of charms, and the words on the charms were also in Miao language, and the wings and legs of the big guy were also tied with ink fountain wires. From its hideous expression, it was clear that it was not dead when it was placed in the stone coffin, and it struggled in the coffin for many days, and finally starved to death.

"Cheng Feng, what did you just say, what did Third Sister Lan call that old lady in her dream? Old Lady White? Do you think this is the way to play? "Then ask him.

Ma Chengfeng said that I think the eight achievements are it, this should be a giant vampire bat! When I go back, I'll ask Ma Ya, look, such a big person, it must have hundreds of years to do it, right? Maybe he was sealed here by Third Sister Lan in the end. This guy is behind his cultivation, although his body is dead, his soul is immortal, and the old white lady we met last night is probably transformed by this demon soul.

"Old White Lady?" Chu Tianyue stood at the door, muttering the name repeatedly. Seems to have remembered something.

Since the Qing Dynasty, the locals have the custom of worshiping Mrs. Bai, and there are often outsiders who strayed into the mountains and forests and were killed by Mrs. Bai. There is one of them in "Notes on Reading Wei Caotang", which is written about chasing corpses in Xiangxi, and Mrs. Bai was mentioned in this story, saying that people who are fascinated by her illusions will die unclear, and when the corpse is revealed, she has sucked her brain dry. ”
