At the entrance of Chen Mansion, the two wrought copper doors are still tightly closed.
Just a few steps away from the gate, near a flowerbed, a skinny old man with white hair and beard was lying on a snowdrift.
The clothes on his body were in tatters, and there was no clothes to cover his exposed skin, which was completely pale.
When Chen Hai arrived here, there were two servants in the mansion trying to drag the skinny old man's body away from here and find another place to put it.
"It's so cold. There's no human here. It's just a piece of ice that will never melt!"
Among the two servants, the one named Dazhong, as soon as he came into contact with the body of the skinny old man, he screamed and retreated several steps.
His hair, eyebrows, and the outer parts of his body were covered with a layer of white frost in just this moment.
The other servant, because of what happened to his companion, the big hand he stretched out quickly shrunk.
But even so, before he really came into contact with the skinny old man's body, his whole body still shivered several times involuntarily.
"Master!"
"Dong...dong...dong's house!"
Seeing Chen Hai coming, the two servants quickly saluted him.
The servant named Dazhong had a layer of white frost covering his face. His teeth kept chattering when he spoke. He hesitated for a while before he finally said the two simple words completely.
"You knew that this corpse appeared strangely, but you were so careless that you dared to go over and touch it!" Chen Hai glared at the two servants angrily, and Chen Hai sighed.
"My boss, our move is indeed a bit abrupt!"
"Actually, we just want to dispose of this body as soon as possible to avoid causing trouble to the mansion!" One of the servants quickly spoke and explained.
As the saying goes, it takes a thousand days to raise an army, but it takes a while to use it.
Although Chen Hai spent real money to buy these servants in the house, he had already torn up the deeds of personal sale and so on. On weekdays, he treated these servants in the house very well.
It was just a trivial matter such as disposing of the corpse, and they couldn't help. It was like this. The two servants were very embarrassed, and they also felt guilty in their hearts.
Of course, the servant named Dazhong did not express his opinion at this moment. After all, he was covered in white frost and his whole body began to tremble violently. Under the constant erosion of the terrifying chill, he wanted to speak.
It's already hard to say it out loud.
"You two guys, forget it, I won't do it next time, remember not to be so rash in the future!"
While talking, Chen Hai walked up to Dazhong in a few steps.
After looking him up and down, he gently patted him on the shoulder.
Then, a ferocious mouthpart extended from the palm of his hand and pierced into the flesh and blood of Dazhong's shoulder.
When the magical power of Devouring Touch was first developed, Chen Hai's way of using it was still a little rough.
After so many years, whether it is the Eye of Greed or the Touch of Devouring, Chen Hai's control over these two magical powers has already reached a state of perfection.
….
The mouthpart extending from the palm of his hand and piercing Dazhong's shoulder, under Chen Hai's deliberate control, did not swallow his flesh and blood, but only swallowed the terrifying chill that invaded his body.
.
In just one breathless moment, all the hoarfrost on Dazhong's body had receded, but he still looked sluggish, as if he was seriously ill.
To put it bluntly, without Chen Hai's help, it is very likely that he would have died under the constant erosion of the terrifying chill.
"My boss, I...I..." He felt ashamed, but for a moment, Dazhong didn't know how to speak.
"Okay, just leave the corpse matter to me."
"Dazhi, help Dazhong go down, take care of yourself first
Take a rest!"
Without making a move, Chen Hai had already put away the mouthpiece and withdrew the hand from Dazhong's shoulder.
The ambition he mentioned was the name of the other servant.
Chen Hai waved his hand at him and ordered.
Dazhong and Dazhi looked at each other with shame on their faces. When they thought of staying here, it seemed that they really couldn't help Chen Hai in the slightest. After that, they sighed, saluted Chen Hai, and finally turned around and left.
.
It was only then that Chen Hai's eyes really fell on the body of the skinny old man near the flower garden.
"Master, this corpse is very weird. Dazhong almost froze to death just by touching him!"
"How about we set a fire and burn it directly!"
The person speaking at this moment is called Xiao Si, the servant dressed like a servant who sent Chen Hai a letter before.
When Chen Hai rushed here, he naturally stayed with him and followed him closely.
At this moment, besides Chen Hai, he was the only one left beside the flower garden at the gate, still staying here.
"The coldness above this corpse is so severe that ordinary flames will be extinguished without waiting until they get close."
"If you want to burn this corpse, use the true fire of Samadhi. Maybe there is still some possibility."
"How to deal with this thing, let's wait and see the situation before deciding!"
After thinking about it for a while, Chen Hai responded.
He can actually control the Taoist true fire of Samadhi True Fire, but he has not made a decision yet on whether to burn the corpse directly.
After all, the appearance of this corpse was too strange.
The door of the mansion was always closed. If he fell from the sky, there would be no chance that there would be no movement at all.
Silently and suddenly appeared in this mansion. If Chen Hai guessed correctly, he felt that this corpse should have come out of the ground.
If the facts are as he guessed, then this corpse may still retain a little vitality and is not really dead. Otherwise, how can a dead corpse have the ability to come here from the ground?
Of course, it is not ruled out that this skinny old man emerged from the ground and after appearing here, he was exhausted and died suddenly on the spot. However, the probability of such a thing happening should not be high.
After thinking about it, Chen Hai took a few steps forward and squatted down near the snowdrift where the skinny old man was lying. Then, he stretched out his big hand and grabbed the skinny old man's wrist.
"Master, you can't..." When Xiaosi on the side saw this scene, his expression changed and he exclaimed.
After all, Dazhong, who had just touched the skinny old man's body, was an obvious example. He did not want his boss Chen Hai to end up like that when he went to Dazhong's retreat.
"Don't worry, Xiaosi, just this little chill can't hurt me!"
"Didn't you see that the chill that invaded Dazhong's body was easily resolved by me?"
"I'm just checking the general condition of this corpse to prove some of my guesses. If the situation is really wrong, I will definitely stop immediately and take it back!"
After being slightly startled, Chen Hai realized what he was doing. He turned around and smiled lightly at Xiaosi.
Casually, the big hand he stretched out had been directly clasped on the wrist of the skinny old man.
It's hard to find a suitable word to describe the extremely cold and biting feeling.
The whole body of the skinny old man seemed to be completely frozen, completely immersed in silence.
Despite carrying the biting and terrifying chill, Chen Hai vaguely felt that there seemed to be a glimmer of life in the old man's body wrapped in endless coldness, which had not yet been completely wiped out.
Like me, I rely on blind practice to practice Taoism
