As I went down the mountain, my mood became much heavier.
The more I know, the further away I feel from the answers I want to know.
Not only that, but the feeling of powerlessness became more and more severe.
Because from the current point of view, if what the Lord of Maoshan said is true, then the city god in Niang'er Village who almost killed me may be the real city god.
This also means that unless I really become the real earth immortal mentioned by the Lord of Maoshan, otherwise I may not have such a good result even if I return to Niang'er Village.
The only thing worth comforting now is that, according to what the Lord of Maoshan said, my ability to return to Niang'er Village may prove that I am strong enough.
It's just this premise that requires me to take that final step.
In other words, survive the last chance given to me by Mr. Taishan Mansion.
in other words.
When I find the last coffin to suppress the coffin, I will most likely die, because at that time I will face the Lord Taishan who really wants to kill me.
It is an existence that is very likely to be more powerful than a real god.
I want to survive in the hands of such a being, but as of now, I don't see much hope.
When I was on the iron knot, Liu Shan woke up at some point. He glanced at me, then yawned and said, "You're back, so soon?"
"Maoshan didn't make things difficult for you?"
I shook my head and said, "No."
Liu Shan glanced in the direction of Maoshan and nodded.
"That's fine."
"It seems that guy is quite knowledgeable."
"Huh?" I looked at him.
Liu Shan smiled and said, "I mean, he must know your relationship with Daochang Li, and he doesn't dare to embarrass you."
"But it's so late, so he didn't let you stay up there for one night?"
I didn't go to expose Liu Shan and said calmly: "I'll stay. I thought it wouldn't be good for you to wait down there alone, so I came down."
Liu Shan glanced at me.
"You still have some conscience, kid."
I shrugged and was not in the mood to chat with him. I took out the Death Bell and asked, "Do you know this thing?"
Liu Shan glanced at it, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, but the surprise quickly disappeared, and he shook his head and said, "What is this?"
"How can I recognize anything from you people?"
I said angrily: "Okay, stop pretending."
"Do you really think I'm a fool?"
Liu Shan glanced at me and then sighed: "You are just a fool."
I was stunned for a while and then retorted: "I was just pretending."
"Then only you know." Liu Shan said, took the Bell of Rebirth, looked at it for a while and said, "I am even willing to give this thing to you."
"But I advise you not to take this thing out directly when you arrive at the corpse removal village unless you have to."
"Why?" I asked doubtfully.
"This thing is extremely important to the corpse exorcism lineage."
Liu Shan no longer pretended to be stupid this time, and explained bluntly: "It was made by the first ancestor of the zombie lineage. It not only has great control over the walking corpses, but is also a symbol of status."
"If someone from the corpse extermination lineage gets this thing, it means that the entire corpse extermination lineage can be given orders."
"If you take it out directly, it will definitely attract the attention of the Corpse Exorcist Lineage. Even if you are not weak now, there are still many secrets in the Corpse Exorcist Lineage."
Having said this, Liu Shan handed the death bell back to me.
"But it's not impossible if you want to use it."
"When you confirm the existence of the Coffin, you can use it to command the walking corpse to find the entrance to Huangquan Road for you."
"At that time, this thing will have a protective effect on you."
"It seems you know a lot." I put away the corpse-clearing bell and said with a smile.
Liu Shan looked around, and then asked doubtfully: "What did I just say?"
I didn't bother to pay attention to his pretending to be stupid, and continued: "The Lord of Maoshan gave me this thing because he wanted me to find a place for Maoshan to stay after returning to Niang'er Village."
"You agreed?" Liu Shan returned to his serious look.
I nodded and said, "I agree."
Liu Shan narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a moment and said, "It's okay to agree."
"Apart from this, he didn't make any other requests, right?"
I shook my head.
"there is none left."
"Yes." Liu Shan yawned, "Take a rest, and we will continue our journey to the Corpse Removal Village early tomorrow morning."
I looked at Liu Shan, who had continued to close his eyes, and then looked away after a moment.
At present, Liu Shan's identity is definitely not simple.
Then you can be sure.
This game set up by the old smoker started after the old madman left.
Because before the old smoker came to Niang'er Village, I had already met Liu Shan once.
I just don’t know what role Liu Shan plays in this.
After sighing slightly, I didn't think much more, leaned back on the seat and began to close my eyes and meditate.
The night passed like this.
In the early morning, Liu Shan and I ate some dry food, and then we continued our journey to the corpse removal village.
But before leaving, I took another look at Maoshan.
What surprised me was that in just one night, the Maoshan I saw had undergone earth-shaking changes. At first glance, it looked very ordinary, like a low mountain.
It's like what I saw before was all my imagination.
As if he saw my doubts, Liu Shan said calmly: "Maoshan has always been like this."
"Pretending to be mysterious."
"It's just a cover-up."
"No need to make too much fuss."
I glanced at him, and he closed his mouth again and continued to drive the iron knot seriously.
I was a little helpless, thought for a moment and asked: "How much do you know about the corpse exorcism lineage?"
Liu Shan pondered for a moment and said: "The current line of corpse exorcism is quite special."
"Originally, the Corpse Exorcist lineage was divided into three branches."
"They are respectively refining corpses, controlling corpses, and driving corpses."
"Among them, the corpse-refining lineage has the largest number of people. Their method is to refine corpses into walking corpses, which can be regarded as serving the other two lines."
"Conquering corpses and driving corpses are actually similar. They are one lineage divided into two branches."
"It's just that the zombie masters are more domineering. They almost completely erase the consciousness of the zombies, leaving them with no possibility of going any further."
"The most orthodox method is to drive away corpses."
"The zombies they drive will continue to advance. The powerful can control the zombies without turning into bones, and there are many of them."
"Of course, this is the original."
"Today's corpse extermination lineage should be the only orthodox one left."
"Both corpse refining and corpse control are controlled by this lineage, which also makes today's corpse extermination lineage's methods complicated."
"But it's also stronger."
"After all, the more means you have, the more abilities you have."
"The strongest person can control the body without turning into bones?" I asked in surprise.
If only.
Then the corpse-killing lineage won't put so much pressure on me.
"That's just the surface."
"And there is a difference even if the bones are not broken."
"The bones of the City God are not ordinary bones that cannot be transformed."
