Chapter 1131 The corpse collection shop and the Holy Land of Inanimate Killing
As soon as the six people arrived at the upper ruins, they found that it was a large house that was split in two from the middle, with only half remaining.
From the courtyard to the lobby of the big house, there was an off-white powder that could not be distinguished from lime powder or dust, and black lacquer coffins were piled up in layers.
These black-painted coffins were stacked too densely. There were at least a hundred coffins. They were all stacked on wooden benches to isolate the underground air for raising the corpse.
The coffins here are different from the coffins that fell in the Fushou shop. The lids of the coffins are nailed shut, and there is a stick of incense stuck in the cracks of the coffins. It seems that there are suffering people living in each coffin.
"Let's go to the lobby and have a look. If there are clues here, the chances are better in the lobby." The eldest man took the lead and floated towards the lobby.
The three brothers and sisters still stood in the three-talent formation, protecting the three disciples in the center.
In fact, the lobby is no different from the courtyard. The ground is also covered with thick white ash, and there are many black coffins stacked on wooden benches.
The soul of the eldest man floated to the coffin to observe carefully, and then his expression became more serious as he looked at it. He called his two junior brothers: "See if these coffins have anything in common."
Before the two of them could speak, three young people answered first.
"I know Master, they are all placed off the ground."
"And they are all black coffins."
"And they were all nailed in the coffin."
The three of them answered each other one by one.
Maybe they wanted to use words to embolden themselves. After all, the coffins stacked high here were too scary and oppressive.
The middle-aged man who was the second junior brother shook his head and said solemnly: "These coffins are all sealed with five coffin nails!"
I don’t know what kind of taboo there is about five coffin nails. After the middle-aged man, the second junior brother, said this, the three other junior brothers all frowned with nervous expressions on their faces.
The nails in the coffin separate yin and yang.
When the coffin is closed, some coffin nails are nailed with seven nails, and some coffin nails are nailed with nine coffin nails.
Seven nails in the coffin are called offspring nails, which make the family prosperous. Nine nails in the coffin are called nine-nine nails, which are good luck and can lead to reincarnation early.
But you must not whisper seven, such as five coffin nails or four coffin nails.
A person has three souls and seven souls. Nail four and leave half, which means that seven or more nails must be hammered into the coffin. The nails cannot be nailed to the fourth coffin. It means that you must be measured in your life, not too extreme, and leave a message for future generations.
road.
But these coffins in front of me all have five coffin nails. These are called soul-sealing nails, which is not a good sign.
"Soul-Sealing Nail... Master, Master, what kind of person would use the Soul-Sealing Nail after death?" Although they already had the answer in their hearts, the three young people were still lucky and wanted to get a different answer from their elders.
.
There are so many coffins here, and only five coffin nails are driven into them. The pressure is too great, and psychological stress is a normal reaction for people.
"It doesn't matter if you die violently or in vain and your resentment persists."
As expected, this was the answer, and the young man's face turned a little pale.
"Look at how courageous you are. When we were your age, we followed your master into the mountains late at night and dug into the blind bear's den. Each of us tied up the body with a rope to help your master overcome the stiffness." A middle-aged man with a strong body.
He snorted coldly, scaring several young people into frowning and not daring to say anything easily.
The three brothers looked uneasy and checked the coffin inside and outside again. They found that there were indeed five coffin nails, all of which were hammered nails.
At this time, they found a plaque that had fallen to the side. The paint on the plaque was severely peeled off. It looked like it had been dropped for a long time and was in tatters. The words "Corpse Collection Shop" could be vaguely seen on the plaque.
"The body shop!"
The three of them looked at each other in surprise, and they all saw expressions of realization in each other's eyes.
"Dynasties change and wars continue. It seems that the appearance of this cadaver shop should be in the early days of the founding of the Kangding Kingdom. Only in special years can corpses litter the land, and cadaver shops and so many coffins appear."
A few people discussed it for a few words and immediately came up with an answer.
Things like corpse shops can only be said to be special products of a special era. Once the new regime stabilizes, there will be no need for it. It will soon be lost in the wheel of history. The Yizhuang emerged next, which is most commonly used by the people.
The main ones are still Yizhuang.
It’s no wonder that the coffins in the corpse shop are all five coffin nails, because the dead people who can be collected by the corpse shop are all unclaimed corpses that suffered misfortunes in the war. Since they are unclaimed and ownerless corpses,
If there is a thing, then use the soul-suppressing nail to nail it. It will be done once and for all, saving time and effort.
It is conceivable that the cadaver shop cannot exist for a long time. Once it loses its special purpose in a special era, the corpses are mostly cleaned after the war. This cadaver shop was abandoned and demolished within a few years of its existence, and then built on the original site.
Incense and candles are placed in Fushou Shop to suppress the negative energy in this place.
For several consecutive generations, people lived in peace and harmony, but I don't know why in the hands of this generation, this place became evil again. The collapse of coffins in the underworld can actually affect the sleep of living people in the upper world.
"Perhaps, the owner of Fushou Shop once passed through the underworld here and triggered some kind of accident, which caused the resentment and obsession in the underworld to entangle him."
"This matter can only be discussed in detail with the client after we finish the tour. The current situation is that we must first find a way to remedy the situation and close the loopholes in the corpse collection shop to prevent new coffins from collapsing."
The three brothers came to the hole in the courtyard, and while cautiously alerting the surroundings and asking the young people to follow them and not running around, they discussed how to fill the hole.
Several rows of wooden benches collapsed beside the cave, and the coffins stacked high collapsed like an avalanche, scattering them everywhere.
"Fortunately, the coffin nails in these coffins are still tightly sealed, and the bodies are not missing like the mountain of coffins in the backyard of Fu Shou Store."
"It seems that the body shop and the Fushou shop belong to two different worlds. As long as the coffin does not leave the body shop, the soul-suppressing nail will always exist."
After a brief discussion, several people had already come up with a countermeasure, and then called on the disciples to come over and help them. First, they had to rearrange the coffins without touching the ground.
Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened.
The three brothers shouted several times but no one responded. They turned to look behind them, only to see that only two of the three disciples who had been following them were left. The two stood there shaking with fear and did not dare to mess up.
He moved, with expressions on his face full of horror, fear, and nervousness. He was so scared that he could not speak, and his eyes were staring straight at the top of a certain mountain of coffins.
The three brothers felt their hearts pounding on the spot, and they secretly exclaimed something bad. They hurriedly turned around and saw that the disappeared disciple was crawling on all fours like he was possessed by an evil spirit. He was hanging upside down and crawling around in the dense mountain of coffins. He kept sniffing with his nose.
As if looking for something.
"Senior brother, something is wrong!" The second junior brother and the sturdy man both had serious expressions on their faces.
"What's going on? How could Ah Cai suddenly become like that?" the eldest man asked in a low voice.
The two disciples were so frightened that they couldn't speak. Their expressions were as if they were mourning, and they looked scared and wanted to cry but couldn't.
The eldest man held a cinnabar pen, recited the "God's Curse for Purifying Heaven and Earth", and drew a rune on each of their hearts. This calmed their souls, brought them back from the state of shock, and their expressions became much calmer.
He asked sternly again: "Did Ah Cai touch something he shouldn't have touched? You three are the closest, are you hiding something from us?"
The two disciples felt guilty and did not dare to look at the stern eyes of their elders, so they told the truth.
The capital city is very large, and this team of six people must be careful when traveling, so they have been staying in the capital city for several days, especially due to the sudden riot three days ago. They hid for two days, and only came out to continue their work when there was no movement outside.
.
It was during those two days of chaos that the disciple named Ah Cai accidentally picked up a 10 billion tael of ghost coins.
Ah Cai was blinded by the money, so he secretly hid this ten billion tael coin without telling his elders. He always felt that he had made a fortune and that things would turn around.
Since the three of them were similar in age and had a good relationship with each other as seniors, they were always close to each other. Therefore, although Ah Cai had concealed the secret coin from his elders, he could not hide it from his senior fellow apprentices.
"Ten billion taels of hell coins!"
"Are you sure it's really 10 billion taels of hell coins!"
After repeatedly confirming that it was really 10 billion taels of ghost coins, the three of them were shocked and took a breath. The burly man couldn't help but complain: "No wonder this guy Acai didn't tell us. If I had picked up such a windfall,
I have to keep it secret from you, senior brothers!"
His words caused the two of them to roll their eyes and signal that there were still juniors present, so they should pay attention to their elders' words.
"Ill-gotten wealth will bring disaster! It seems that Ah Cai was blinded by money and was obsessed by ghosts. He just didn't know which kind of evil ghost among the thirty-six ghost realms in the underworld was obsessed with him. He was possessed by ghosts.
What is the purpose!" The elder said worriedly as he looked at his nephew Ah Cai who was still crawling upside down among the coffins.
"What do you think Ah Cai is looking for?" Second Junior Brother asked.
The sturdy man said: "It doesn't matter what kind of evil spirit it is or what it is looking for. It's important to save people! Find an opportunity later. Second Senior Brother, you first use a dragnet to trap Ah Cai and restrict his mobility. Then I will go up."
Put a rope around Ah Cai's body to suppress the evil spirit in Ah Cai's body, and then, senior brother, go up and fight off the evil spirit that possesses him."
Unable to come up with a better solution for the time being, the three of them had to try this method for the time being.
"You two go to the next level first. We won't be able to take care of you if we fight with each other later! We will go back to deal with you after this trip to the underworld is over!" As soon as the elder finished speaking, the three brothers took out their respective elements.
The magical weapon began to slowly move towards Ah Cai.
In the hand of the second junior brother was a fine mesh rope woven with cinnabar and red rope, and the mesh rope was full of Five Emperors copper coins.
The strong man knotted the corpse-tying rope in his hand into a noose, planning to find the right moment to put it around Ah Cai's neck.
The oldest one took out the Eight Diagrams Mirror and Soul-Calming Bell.
The thing possessing Ah Cai was not a low-level evil spirit. As soon as the three of them took action, Ah Cai noticed it. He crawled in and out of the gaps in the coffin far away from the ground, not giving the three of them a chance to get close.
The three of them were chasing each other on the ground, while Ah Cai was running in the sky. After a few turns, Ah Cai actually disappeared.
The three of them swallowed nervously, even though their souls were out of control at the moment and had no saliva to swallow.
"Brother, I'm afraid we've encountered a ruthless character this time!" The three of them were back to back, looking around cautiously, and the strong man said.
"Shut up! Don't distract us!" The older man looked very solemn.
Suddenly a figure flashed above their heads. When the three of them looked up, the figure was gone.
Then a figure flashed to the left, and the three of them hurriedly turned their heads to look, but still didn't see Ah Cai.
Ah Cai's figure has been darting back and forth in the sky, so erratic that it is difficult to locate the exact location.
Second Junior Brother: "Brother, have you ever heard the story about dogs hunting rabbits? Rabbits will kick people when they are anxious, so dogs usually tire the rabbits until they are exhausted, and then finally get up and take a fatal bite."
The sturdy man: "Second Senior Brother, why do I feel that what you said is wrong? I feel that the ghost possessing Ah Cai never paid attention to us from the beginning. It doesn't seem like he is deliberately playing tricks on us, but it seems that he has been looking for us."
Thing...could the evil spirit possessing Ah Cai be one of the dead people who ran away from Fu Shou shop?"
The eldest man thought for a while, and then quietly ordered to retreat towards the entrance of the cave, in order to test what the ghost possessing Ah Cai wanted.
The three of them retreated back to back to the entrance of the cave when Ah Cai suddenly stopped and stared at them coldly.
The strong man had a cold expression on his face: "Sure enough, he doesn't intend to let us go! He is destined to fight us to the death!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of soaring teeth suddenly came from the corpse shop, and the sound of soaring teeth continued. The sound was like the friction of coffin boards, which made people's scalp numb.
It was really a leaky house and it rained all night. A disciple was possessed by an evil spirit in the past, and a coffin was collected to collect corpses. The three of them were really forced into a desperate situation this time.
"Senior brother, didn't you say that as long as the coffin does not leave the body collection shop, the soul-suppressing nail will not be ineffective? It seems that you may have made a mistake sometimes." At this critical juncture, the strong man did not forget to ridicule his senior brother.
The three of them suddenly noticed that Ah Cai in the sky no longer paid attention to them, but turned his head and looked around, as if Ah Cai was more nervous about the source of the voice than the three of them.
Ah Cai began to crawl slowly between the coffins, carefully searching for the source of the sound.
Finally, he stopped in front of one of the coffins in the lobby, and Ah Cai began to talk around the coffin, but his voice was unclear, as if there were more than a dozen men and women talking in one body.
Just as he was sniffing around the coffin and talking to himself, boom!
The side of a coffin next to him was suddenly pierced by an arm, which directly wrapped around his neck, and his rustling soliloquy was interrupted.
The three people standing in the yard looked surprised, and there was only one thought left in their minds. The dead man in the coffin was about to fight the evil ghost!
The second thought is whether they can save Ah Cai or not!
boom!
The coffin exploded into pieces, and a man's figure came out of the coffin. His cold eyes looked at the struggling Ah Cai who was tightly held by his palm: "I guessed it right, there are indeed many Wu Sheng Cult demons lurking in the underworld.
Capital City! You finally couldn’t hold back and started showing up!"
"Do you think you can hide from the outside world by hiding in other people's bodies without being noticed by others? You are naive! I have killed not ten but five or six demons in the Wusheng Holy Land. The special aura on your body will make you wipe the corpse.
Even oil can’t hide it!”
Wearing five-color Taoist robes!
A holy land of inanimateness in one mouthful!
Early twenties!
The three brothers in the courtyard finally recognized the identity of the "dead man who pretended to be dead" in front of them. He was the recently popular martial arts immortal! Jin An, the master of the Five Zang Taoist Temple!
The expressions on the faces of the three people changed drastically after they realized that they, a small folk sect, had unintentionally been involved in the dispute between the martial arts immortals and the Wusheng Holy Land!
