I thought of the time when I was in Fenling Village, Mr. Ghost, disguised as Uncle Ghost, wanted the bones of the City God.
"You mean, those people from the Corpse Exorcist lineage might be able to control the Bone Body of the City God?"
Liu Shan shrugged and did not answer me, but the meaning was already obvious.
And if so.
Then I think I roughly understand why the relationship between the Zhanshi lineage and Taishan Mansion Lord is so close. This relationship may be based on mutual use.
The zombie lineage uses the bones of the city god as the walking corpses they control.
Although the current City Gods are false gods, every one of them came from the Huangquan Road. In the final analysis, they have a close relationship with the Lord of Taishan Prefecture. Their bones and bodies cannot be touched by ordinary people.
Not only did the corpse-killing lineage touch, but they also took control of the city god's bone body to improve their own strength. Unless Lord Taishan acquiesced, how could they have survived until now.
This also explains something.
My trip to the Corpse Hunting Village was actually equivalent to entering the territory of Taishan Prefecture.
No wonder Tianshi Mountain and Maoshan both have such an attitude.
It is indeed a matter of life and death.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh. Seeing that Liu Shan didn't speak anymore, I didn't ask any more questions. I already knew everything I wanted to know.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
We finally arrived at the site of the Corpse Expulsion Line, but we did not reach the Corpse Expulsion Village. Liu Shan stopped Tie Gupada when we were still some distance away from the Corpse Expulsion Village.
Just as I was about to ask, Liu Shan pointed to the road in front of us and said, "The road ahead is the way to the corpse-eating village, but as you have seen, this road is very weird, so just go in by yourself."
Although I knew that Liu Shan's reason was just to prevaricate me, I did not refuse. After all, some of the things Liu Shan told me along the way actually had his own thoughts.
Or it's Li Bowen's idea.
Even if I don't want to admit it.
After getting off the iron knot, Liu Shan walked away directly. The next time we see each other, it will either be when I leave the zombie village, or maybe it will be when I am sent back to Niang'er Village.
I didn't look at Liu Shan more, but focused on the road Liu Shan pointed to.
At a glance, there was a person standing on both sides of the road, but each of those people's heads were covered with black cloth, and they stood there quietly, without any breath.
If nothing else, these people should all be zombies.
Any ordinary person might have been frightened by such a situation. After all, there were probably hundreds of zombies in these two rows. Walking among them, one would feel as if they were walking towards a dead end.
Even though I am used to seeing life and death, I still feel a little uncomfortable at this time.
Fortunately, these walking corpses should be left here by people of the excommunicated lineage through some means. Although they are a bit scary, there is nothing special about them other than that. Instead, they give people the impression that they were placed here.
, is used to shock or tell people who come here that this place is close to a corpse extermination village.
After walking for about ten minutes, there were no walking corpses on both sides, but instead there were two ditches. The water flowing in the two ditches was somewhat similar to the water in the Huangquan River, but it was more viscous.
From time to time I can see some floating things like stumps from above.
Looking along the ditch to the end, I finally saw some faint houses.
If nothing else, it would be a corpse-expelling village.
However, before I could continue walking inside, I heard the sound of a gong.
I turned around and saw an old man wearing a raincoat and holding a pair of gongs slowly walking towards me, and behind him were several figures with their heads covered.
Someone from the corpse-killing lineage?
I looked at him and subconsciously stepped out of the way.
I came here to find a coffin, but since I'm not familiar with this place yet, I don't want to expose myself too early.
When I saw him, he also saw me.
But he just glanced at me, then beat the gong and walked towards me.
It wasn't until the figures following him passed by me that he turned back to look at me and said, "Young man, if you have nothing to do, don't stay here."
"This is not the place you should come."
Hearing his words, I smiled and asked, "Excuse me, is this a corpse-expelling village?"
He looked at me a little surprised.
I continued to explain: "I have always heard about the corpse exorcism..."
"Have you heard?" Before I could finish my words, he sneered and said, "Those who know about the Corpse Exorcism Village are not ordinary people."
"Boy, where are you from?"
I was stunned for a moment, then continued to smile and said: "I'm from Zhongdong Gu Village."
"Zhongdong Gu Village?" He looked me up and down, "When did you bug farmers become interested in our lineage of killing corpses?"
"But even if you are from Zhongdong Gu Village, this is not the place you should come."
"I've arrested you for training before anyone else discovers it, so get out of here quickly."
After he finished speaking, he turned back and continued walking forward without looking at me.
I looked at his figure with some confusion, and I just felt a little strange about what he said.
Isn't he also a member of the corpse-killing lineage?
Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard heavy footsteps. When I looked up, I saw a strong man at least two meters tall rushing towards us.
His steps were not actually very fast, but every step almost made a hole in the ground.
Not only that, his face looked very pale and ferocious, and I felt an extremely strong aura of death from the moment he appeared.
This is obviously a dead man.
My eyelids twitched and I was about to take action, but the old man who drove away the corpse took the lead.
I saw him continuously beating the gong in his hand. As the sound of the gong continued to sound, the figures behind him also tore off the black cloth on their heads at the same time, and the same terrifying aura also followed from those figures.
The figure emanates from the body.
Astonishingly, they are all walking corpses that have not transformed into bones.
And as the non-bone-level walking zombies and the tall walking zombies struggled together, two more voices rang out.
One sound was also the sound of a gong.
The other one is the sound of suona.
Two voices came and went.
As the tall walking corpse kept roaring, the aura on its body suddenly became more and more powerful, and even made me feel an aura that was very close to that of a city god.
After a while, two more people appeared.
An old man wearing white clothes.
A shirtless child who looked to be no more than a teenager.
As soon as the two of them appeared, they both focused their attention on the old man in sackcloth.
"We didn't go looking for you, but you came to our door yourself."
