Chapter 26 Exposure
Cynthia purpurea itself is an herb used to prepare Corpse Pill.
This herb is often produced in places where earth evil spirits gather and corpse evil spirits gather, but it has a miraculous effect on resolving corpse poison. It can also be regarded as a model of how one thing in nature can subdue one thing!
In fact, Lu Yang didn't need to say it, Zheng Tianyou had already seen it. Many people in this village had this herb hanging in front of their homes, on their roofs, or on their walls.
He thought to himself: "There are actually a lot of purple-flowered cattail grass growing nearby. It seems that nine out of ten of the barren mountains have really turned into a corpse raising ground!"
After thinking for a while, Zheng Tianyou said: "Let's go up the mountain and have a look!"
All zombies have one biggest weakness, that is, they are afraid of sunlight.
Although it is still morning, the sun has already appeared, and it is a beautiful sunny day.
Even if there are zombies, they should hide in the tomb and sleep.
However, this is not difficult for Zheng Tianyou and others. They can judge whether there are any corpses inside from the traces around the cemetery, such as whether the soil is loose or not.
As long as you find those sleeping zombies and put them in the sun to be burned, you will be able to solve them!
However, when talking about going up the mountain, the villagers in Huaiting Township all looked horrified and frightened: "That mountain is not allowed, there are many venomous snakes on the mountain! One bite will kill you!"
Although it is early autumn, the weather is still hot and the grass and trees have not withered yet.
There are sagebrush and weeds half as tall as a man everywhere in this mountain, blocking the view.
In addition, the mountain road is rugged, and no one can clearly see the environment below. If it is a venomous snake, it is really easy to be bitten by a venomous snake.
Zheng Tianyou was stunned when he heard this: "Are there many venomous snakes in the mountains? This is quite rare!"
This kind of corpse-raising place is always cold and cold, and it is not a place that snakes like to live in.
He was still wondering at first that martial arts was prevalent in this world because of the large number of monsters and demons. Even in rural villages, almost everyone practiced martial arts and at least had some farming skills.
Huaiting Township has a large population. We took out a few hundred young men and went up the mountain to deal with all the buried zombies. Why are we afraid that the zombies will not be eliminated?
Now it seems that this poisonous snake should have the power!
But just because others don’t dare to go up the mountain, it doesn’t mean that Zheng Tianyou doesn’t dare to go up the mountain.
He said: "Then let me go up the mountain and have a look!"
The old man from the village said: "If a strong man wants to go up the mountain, it's better to bring some realgar!
I know that ordinary poisonous snakes are not afraid of realgar, but the poisonous snakes in this mountain are afraid of realgar!
There are realgars everywhere in my village, so those poisonous snakes won’t come down the mountain!”
Hearing this, Zheng Tianyou took a bag of realgar and put it on his waist, and immediately headed towards the barren mountain.
Zhang Daya and Lu Yang hurriedly followed and walked towards the mountain together.
Zheng Tianyou asked the two of them to follow him and walk along the place he walked.
The big tooth didn't take it seriously. When he was a beggar, he often caught snakes to eat.
I think I’m pretty good at dealing with all kinds of venomous snakes!
On the contrary, Lu Yang was a little afraid of snakes and was timid when walking.
But I don’t know whether it’s the realgar on their bodies that plays a role, or whether there are no snakes in the mountains at all.
The three of them went up the mountain without encountering any snakes or insects.
It's just that the trees on this barren mountain seem to be too dense, blocking out the sun all year round, so that it feels chilly in broad daylight.
Each of the deserted graves has been covered with weeds. If it weren't for some tombstones, it would be almost unrecognizable as graves.
Not long after the three of them went up the mountain, the big-toothed man with sharp eyes suddenly shouted: "Brother You, come and see, there are signs of movement on the tombs here!"
When Zheng Tianyou heard this, he immediately looked over and saw obvious signs of turning over the soil on an abandoned grave.
The color of the soil is still very fresh, so it should have been turned over within a few days. If there weren't grave robbers robbing the tomb, it would have been zombies!
He cheered up and said with a smile: "I didn't expect to find it so easily. Let's dig it out and take a look!"
Zhang Daya and Lu Yang took the order and started digging the grave.
Before going up the mountain, they had already asked the common people to borrow hoes and shovels, and now it was not difficult to dig into the fluffy soil.
In just three or two strokes, the big teeth became stronger, and the hoe dug directly through the rotten coffin lid and lifted up the coffin lid.
As far as the eye can see, the thin coffin has begun to decay. However, the corpse of an old woman is completely free of decay and lifelike.
If the skin all over his body had not turned black, and the sharp teeth were exposed at the corners of his mouth, he would have been like a stranger!
Zheng Tianyou's heart moved slightly and he secretly shouted: "It's an iron corpse!"
Although it was freezing cold in the mountains, it was still daytime after all. Although the iron corpse in the coffin was trembling all over and seemed to want to jump up and attack someone, it was still unable to move.
That big tooth was so courageous that when he saw the iron corpse, he was already trying to drag the corpse away.
Zheng Tianyou suddenly took action and dragged him back.
Zhang Daya was still confused at first, but he heard Lu Yang next to him exclaim: "Snake!"
"There's a snake!"
"So many snakes!"
However, a triangular venomous snake head emerged from under the iron corpse. It was so frightened that it opened its teeth and shook its head. If Zheng Tianyou hadn't dragged it away just now, he would have reached out and reached out, and he would have been bitten by the venomous snake.
Got it!
However, this was just the beginning. From under this zombie, poisonous snakes swam out one after another.
These venomous snakes are not big in size, the largest is only a foot long. However, they are completely black, have strange patterns, and their heads are triangular. They are obviously highly venomous snakes.
At this time, it seemed that because of the interruption by Zheng Tianyou and others, they all wandered out, whispering to the three of them.
What makes people feel even more weird is that in the open mouths of these poisonous snakes, there are fluffy white hairs.
Zhang Daya was startled, and when he realized what was happening, he immediately became angry and changed his shovel, and knocked several black snakes into pulp in one go.
However, there was a black snake that was not struck by the shovel. It actually swam up along the handle of the shovel and bit Zhang Da Ya.
At the critical moment, before Zheng Tianyou could take action, the big tooth stretched out his left hand, grabbed the black snake, and then swung it in the air. The black snake had already thrown him out of joint, and he could no longer move.
He smiled and said: "Such a venomous snake, the gallbladder is best taken back and soaked in wine!"
Zheng Tianyou praised: "You are really good at suppressing and dealing with these snakes and insects!"
Zhang Daya smiled sheepishly and said: "When I was a beggar, I ate a lot of these poisonous snakes, rats and other things!"
Next, Zheng Tianyou and the others dragged the zombie in the coffin down the mountain and exposed it to the sun.
Within a few minutes, the zombie made a squeaking noise, and the green and black color on its body faded quickly.
That's the zombie aura melting like ice and snow under the sun.
As the incorruptible corpse began to decay rapidly, it emitted a strong fishy smell.
