Chapter 202: Generals, the ancestors of zombies? (Please subscribe and vote monthly!)
This is a very hidden cave.
It is hidden at an angle to the ground, almost 80% of the way up one third of the cliff.
The cliff protrudes from above, blocking the possibility of others discovering it from above.
At the bottom of the cliff, there are also extensions and bulges like river dams.
People passing by the bottom of the cliff will also be unable to notice it.
The location of this cave looks like the inside of a big mouth.
In addition, the mountain wall is steep and difficult to climb.
There is simply no way for ordinary people to get there easily.
The weirdo who once lived in the cave.
In other words, the Qimen Taoist who is hiding in this mountain forest and studying zombies diligently.
It was only through the zombies he refined that he could travel back and forth between the outside world and this cave.
The space inside the cave is very large.
Lin Zheng's six people, plus the White Witch's total of seven, are more than enough to stand among them.
Then, at the deepest position, there are two sizable coffins!
Both coffins are completely black and made of wood.
Although the area around the coffin is very dry, you can still feel the dampness and coldness when you walk next to it.
Cao Desheng walked around the coffin and looked at it for a while, but he couldn't tell what kind of material it was.
"The two coffins contain the zombies that the weirdo refined before."
The voice of the White Witch came from behind. She stood in the distance and explained everything in the cave to Lin Zheng and others.
"There are two zombies again. Why does it feel like the zombies have been having a meeting since last time?" Cao Desheng widened his eyes and reached out to touch the surface of the coffin.
It just felt like touching extremely cold ice, and my whole body couldn't help but shiver.
The White Witch's warning sounded at the right time: "This coffin has also been refined. In addition, the material itself is unique and has a strong yin energy. It is best not for ordinary people to touch it."
Cao Desheng immediately widened his eyes and took back his right hand as if he had been stung by a bee. He quickly turned around and asked, "What would happen if I touched it?"
The white witch looked at him and spoke in an indifferent tone without any emotion: "As long as the yin energy enters the body, the illness will last for a few days. If the contact time is too long, the yang energy and blood energy will probably wake up the zombies inside."
Cao Desheng quickly moved back a few steps, a little further away from the coffin.
The White Witch continued: "Of course, nothing will happen to you. You... are all cultivators."
Cao Desheng's expression immediately stiffened, feeling a little embarrassed.
Even the White Witch's entire face was covered by hair.
But Cao Desheng still felt that this corpse might be laughing at him now.
He glared at the other party, walked to his teammates angrily, and complained: "This white witch looks cold and cold, just like Sister Zhang. I thought she would be a good person, but she turned out to be bad."
Zhou Xinyi glanced at him sideways: "So you think Zhang Xirou is a good person?"
"Hiss..." Cao Desheng pondered for a few seconds, and then said: "How should I put it, because she is too cold and her words are not pleasant. I may have misunderstood her a little before.
And recently, Sister Zhang is no longer as cold as before, and she often talks and laughs with Director Lin."
Cao Desheng pursed his lips towards a short distance away.
In that direction, I saw Lin Zheng sitting on a stone bench, holding the Taoist book in his hand.
I was looking through it carefully.
Zhang Xirou, on the other hand, was standing behind Lin Zheng, also frowning, reading there.
It just so happened that the two of them might have said something funny, so they both pursed their lips and laughed.
How could Zhou Xinyi not notice it?
From the very beginning, she had always stared at Lin Zheng and Zhang Xirou.
At this time, when I heard Cao Desheng's words, I almost rolled my eyes to the sky.
She was not willing to respond, she just looked away and snorted coldly.
Cao Desheng immediately noticed something was wrong and cast a doubtful look at him: "Why are you so cold? Are you imitating Sister Zhang?"
Zhou Xinyi took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and almost turned around and struck out with the mighty Tianlong.
She turned away and walked to the side, away from Cao Desheng.
If I can’t afford to offend him, can I still afford to hide?
Cao Desheng looked at Zhou Xinyi's back, then glanced at Lin Zheng and Zhang Xirou not far away.
Suddenly his brows furrowed, and then his eyes lit up, as if he had discovered some new world, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.
He immediately chased after Zhou Xinyi, with a puzzled expression: "By the way, why haven't I seen you pestering Director Lin to talk to me recently? Weren't you very nymphomaniac before? You don't look like you anymore."
Zhou Xinyi didn't react at all.
Just pretend that you didn't hear anything.
Cao Desheng had no intention of stopping. He lowered his voice and said to Zhou Xinyi in an extremely exaggerated tone: "Could it be that Director Lin and Sister Zhang are getting too close and you are jealous?"
Zhou Xinyi turned around and glanced at him with suppressed anger: "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute!"
"No, I'm serious!"
Cao Desheng immediately put on a look of hatred and said: "You are defeated now? Do it with her! Why are you afraid of her?
Although you are indeed not as beautiful as anyone else, you have not had the same parents as you have known Director Lin for a long time, and you are not as elegant as anyone else. But you have to believe in yourself, understand?
Our fourth team members will never give up!"
Zhou Xinyi was furious after hearing this, her arms were shaking, and she almost wanted to beat Cao De Sheng directly.
Fortunately, Li Changsheng, who had been beside him, finally couldn't listen anymore.
He turned his head and looked at Cao Desheng with a warning look: "Cao Desheng, really, shut your mouth. If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."
As the captain and now the minister, Li Changsheng's words are somewhat intimidating.
Cao Desheng let out a breath, lowered his head, and argued with some grievance: "I am thinking about the lifelong happiness of our teammates and the future of our team! Captain, do you want to watch Director Lin be snatched away by Sister Zhang?
"
But naturally no one paid any attention to him anymore.
Zhou Xinyi's eyes were still on Lin Zheng and Zhang Xirou not far away.
The expression on his face was slightly sad.
Ever since she returned from the Japanese Psychiatric Hospital, she had been deliberately keeping a distance from Lin Zheng.
Although before, Zhou Xinyi had always been very proactive and heroic.
But her relationship experience was ultimately just that of a single mother.
In Zhou Xinyi's view, the last time she forcefully kissed Lin Zheng, she had already expressed her feelings.
But afterwards, Lin Zheng did not show any obvious feedback.
This undoubtedly made her a little frustrated.
I feel that Lin is using this method to reject himself.
At the same time, after having "expressed my intention".
She could no longer use joking excuses to justify her actions.
In addition, Zhang Xirou and Lin Zheng appear to be closer than before.
As a simple girl, Zhou Xinyi naturally couldn't do it, and she still took the initiative as before.
And Lin Zheng, in terms of emotional experience, is not much different from Zhou Xinyi.
Therefore, no changes in these details were found.
I just feel that getting along with Zhou Xinyi is still the same as before.
Just like now, he and Zhang Xirou were talking and laughing.
They didn't notice at all that there was a sad look looking at the two of them from behind.
Li Changsheng also ignored Cao Desheng.
Instead, he looked at the White Witch, and after thinking about it for a long time, asked: "Excuse me, do you... drink human blood?"
This is an issue that Li Changsheng has to be concerned about.
After all... Judging from the current situation, it seems that Lin Zheng has no intention of getting rid of the White Witch and Yang Xiaohua.
Yang Xiaohua was okay, it was weird after all.
But this white witch is definitely a zombie.
If the other party has been killing people secretly, Li Changsheng would have to raise objections to Lin Zheng.
After all, zombies are different from weird ones.
Weirdness has no entity and does not require energy replenishment. Even if it cannot kill anyone, it can still live well.
There will never be a situation where you are too hungry to kill anyone.
It doesn't seem to be governed by the law of conservation of energy.
But zombies are different. No matter what, a zombie is a real corpse.
According to Lin Zheng, zombies suck blood and eat meat, in addition to strengthening themselves.
The biggest reason is to "fill your stomach" so that your body can remain active and have the power to move.
And relatively speaking, zombies always prefer human blood.
Therefore, this body has always existed in Huangshi Ghost Town.
And every two days, there are zombies who help Yang Xiaohua perform the "hero saves the beauty" drama.
Does it live by sucking human blood or just sucking the blood of animals?
This is something Li Changsheng must figure out.
The White Witch was about to speak, but at this moment, Lin Zheng's voice rang out.
"It doesn't need to suck human blood! In other words, it doesn't need to suck any blood."
Everyone turned to look.
I saw Lin Zheng holding the Taoist book, which looked a little old but still clean and well protected. His eyes never left his eyes and his mouth kept moving at the same time, explaining: "It is not an ordinary zombie.
They are Yin-Yang zombies among special zombies.
The 'food' of the Yin-Yang zombie is not blood, but the brains of animals. However, when the Yin-Yang zombie sucks the brain, it will get part of the other party's memory.
If you take too much, you will even lose your mind due to memory confusion, and become a machine that only knows how to kill by instinct. Only its owner can control it.
Therefore, judging from the current situation of the White Witch, she should not have absorbed too many other human brains, otherwise she would not be able to maintain such a clear sanity."
Lin Zheng raised the book in his hand, shook it, and asked with a smile: "Am I right?"
The white witch nodded.
What Lin Zheng said is indeed correct.
Back then, when she and Yang Xiaohua had just killed everyone in Huangshi Town, they instinctively ate some of their brains.
But I immediately felt something was wrong.
So after that, I always controlled myself.
At most, we only eat the brains of animals, because the memories in the brains of animals are relatively small and unorganized, so the impact on them will not be great.
After hearing what Lin Zheng said, Li Changsheng was immediately surprised: "So, is this Yin-Yang zombie a born good zombie?
In order not to lose their minds, they can only control their appetite?"
Lin Zheng shook his head: "That's not true, this Yin-Yang corpse is not born, but refined.
And those who created the Yin-Yang Corpse did so just to get the best tool.
Therefore, they would rather hope that the Yin-Yang zombies would eat more people's brains, so that the more memories they have, the more they will know.
As for whether the Yin-Yang corpse will lose its mind and how it will feel, they don't care at all."
These things were all seen by Lin Zheng from that book.
He had just glanced at a few pages and had to admit that the contents of this book were indeed very precious.
Especially some knowledge about zombies and various related spells.
He didn't even get it in the system.
In the book, there are even four cultivation routes for zombies to master after they become zombies.
And as for that map.
It also surprised him very much.
What was recorded on the map turned out to be the residence of generals, or zombies with the blood of generals.
The person who drew this map probably wanted to get the blood essence of the generals to make the zombies he refined stronger.
Lin Zheng could only say he admired this.
After all, generals are, after all, the ancestors of zombies in myths and legends.
Even with so many years of skill, he never thought he could provoke him.
Therefore, Lin Zheng is not very concerned about the authenticity of this map for the time being.
He just put it away.
Anyway, before he was sure, he would definitely stay away from this kind of existence that sounded dangerous at first sight.
Li Changsheng and others fell silent, and their eyes changed slightly when they looked at the White Witch.
They didn't expect that this terrifying-looking zombie was actually a victim.
There was silence for a short while in the dark cave.
Li Changsheng decisively changed the topic, looked at Lin Zheng, and asked: "Then what should we do next?
There are two zombies in this cave, so we can’t really leave them alone, right?”
Lin Zheng nodded, then looked at the White Witch: "What levels are these two zombies at?"
The White Witch was about to answer, but at this moment, Yang Xiaohua, who was floating aside, suddenly answered: "I know this, it's all Mao Zang!"
The White Witch also nodded.
Lin Zheng pondered for a moment, handed the book to Li Changsheng, and said: "When we go out later, call someone over and take away the two bodies.
With the methods in this book, we can also control the battle between these two zombies. Although there are risks as long as they exist, they are still controllable.
For the current Blade of Destruction, these combat powers that can be used immediately are very important.
The corpse energy on the zombies is also a type of energy that can destroy the objects on Weird's body. Moreover, they have no souls and are not controlled by Weird. They are one of the existences that Weird is most afraid of encountering."
Zombies without souls, Weirdness has nothing to do with them.
The previous White Witch was entirely affected by the memories in her mind.
Master Huang's cry only played a catalytic role.
At the beginning, Li Changsheng was still a little reluctant to agree.
But after hearing that zombies can destroy strange objects, they are not affected by strange things at the same time.
He immediately stopped objecting.
Although Lin Zheng is powerful, he is only one person after all.
And the current Blade of Destruction department does still need a long period of development.
After hearing this, Cao Desheng also looked surprised and couldn't help but said: "In this case, then if we turn everyone into zombies, don't we not have to worry about strange resurrections?"
Li Changsheng immediately turned his head and glared at the other party fiercely.
Even Lin Zheng couldn't help but cast a look of admiration. He really couldn't understand how Cao Desheng came up with some of his words.
After solving the two strange things, Lin Zheng looked at Yang Xiaohua and White Witch again, and said: "You two must have understood by now that we are officials... er, people from the imperial court, and we are solving various strange incidents everywhere.
Logically speaking, we should get rid of all the troubles, but in my opinion, the two of them are not bad, so I can make the decision and save their lives.
But there is one condition, that is, you must leave here with us and come under our supervision."
Lin Zheng wanted to take away the White Witch and Yang Xiaohua no matter what.
One is, of course, as he said, for supervision.
The second reason is that the book is Yang Xiaohua's gift.
Destroying it would kill Yang Xiaohua, and the contents of the book would also be destroyed.
Many of the things recorded in it are very useful, and there are a lot of them. Some of them look very complicated, and Lin Zheng himself can't even identify them.
If you want to copy it, it will take a while.
The White Witch replied very simply and coldly: "We have no right to refuse."
On the other hand, Yang Xiaohua hesitated for a while, then looked at Lin Zheng and said, "I want to stay in the town..."
Lin Zheng thought for a while and asked: "Is it for Huangshi Town itself, or for the people in the town?"
Yang Xiaohua was silent for a while and said uncertainly: "It seems... there are all of them. This is the place I am most familiar with. Those people... although they may have done bad things before, they are also the people I am most familiar with."
...and I always feel that they still have to continue to be punished."
"Hey...that's okay, I have a way." Lin Zheng thought for a while.
Then, he looked at Li Changsheng, shrugged easily, and said with a smile: "Okay, everything is settled now.
Call those people outside and ask them to bring our props. We can also officially start shooting a new movie!"
