Botmaster

Mouth glows...

Yan Jingchen and Cheng Lie glanced at each other, and they read something clear in each other's eyes.

Yan Jingchen was silent, but the village head's wife saw that they didn't believe her, so she moved closer and said in a low voice, "Really! My son said, that dead man is still talking!"

"Speak?" Cheng Li coughed and asked, "Auntie, is it possible that that person didn't die completely? From a scientific point of view, there is indeed such a thing as 'fake death'. saved."

"How can it be, the big rock rolling down the mountain crushed it, and half of my head is gone!"

Orange Lu: "..."

The wife of the village chief said again: "I know that you are scholars from the city. You talk about science all day long, and you don't believe what my old woman says. Hey... Anyway, the old woman reminds you, beware of that dead man cheating on you and biting you." Yo."

Yan Jingchen: "..."

Yan Jingchen, who has a real zombie at home, said that all fake corpses that are not zombies are hooligans.

The village head's wife gave them some more instructions, and she left when there was some noise in the back room, presumably it was her frightened son who made the noise.

Seeing that it was getting dark, the brothers and sisters couldn't sit still.

"Brother, why hasn't the village chief come back? Why don't we go and see for ourselves? Otherwise, we won't be able to leave the village today."

"Hmm..." Yan Jingchen pondered for a while, thinking about it was all right, and just about to nod his head in agreement, the village chief came in from the outside and apologized to them.

"Mr. Yan, Mr. Chen, I'm really sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. The couple at the end of the village started fighting again..." the village chief said in a babbling manner, taking a sip of tea from the large tea mug on the table .

"It's okay, it's okay, since the matter is settled, the village chief will take us to see the corpse."

"Hey!" The village chief glanced out, "It's getting dark, why don't you two take your time today, have a light meal and sleep overnight, and go see it tomorrow?"

The attitude of the village chief was obviously evasive, and the two of them didn't want to get entangled with him, but after all, the matter of Kunlun Mirror could not be delayed, so Cheng Li said: "No, no, we have to go back to the unit after watching it in a while. I'm thinking about my wife at home..." At the end, he laughed a couple of times in an unclear manner.

"Oh~ I understand, I understand!" Seeing that he couldn't hold back, the village chief no longer insisted, and led the two of them out.

This multi-ethnic inhabited area was originally relatively closed, because few outsiders came, and the roads in the village were also potholed and had not been repaired for many years. The village head took Yan Jingchen and Cheng Lie to the east of the village. Walking, Yan Jingchen took a look at the layout of the village by the way, but found nothing special.

"Here we are." After 10 minutes, the village chief took them to a stop in front of a courtyard that looked bleak.

The wall of the yard is made of loess, the kind of earth wall that looks like it will be washed away when it rains. Inside, the shelves that should have been used to dry vegetables are empty, and white cloth is hung on the door frame. It looks like a funeral look like.There was no light in the room, and it was very dim. Yan Jingchen and Cheng Li had good eyesight, so they could clearly see a simple coffin facing the door.

The village chief sniffed, frowned and said, "This is the old Lu's house."

"Let's go in and have a look?" Yan Jingchen asked the village head for his opinion.

The village chief said: "This... I'd better not go, I heard that your forensic doctors work to cut up the corpse..." At the end of the speech, his tone was a bit awkward.

Yan Jingchen nodded to express his understanding. Some areas are very open to the handling of corpses, while others are not.

The village chief signaled them to go, while he huddled at the foot of the earthen wall of Old Lu's house, lighting a cigarette in the cold wind.

Yan Jingchen and Cheng Li entered the house. To their surprise, there was no one in this simple adobe room, only a coffin in the middle facing the door, supported by a tiger stool, and an incense burner at one end. , the incense inside has long been burned out and no one continues to refill it.

"Village chief, why is there no one in the house?" Cheng Li caught Yan Jingchen's eyes and shouted out.

"It's no one. The family members have been scared away. It's okay. You guys check it out. Don't be afraid if I'm here!" The village head thought they were afraid of causing trouble, so he told them to do it without worry. Anyway, when the old Lu's family really came Trouble, he also has a way to deal with it.

In fact, the village chief didn't want to enter the house, and the old Lu's family was not there. This was exactly what Yan Jingchen wanted, and what he said just now was just a show.

The two pushed open the coffin lid, and the not-so-strong smell of corpses came out immediately, and Yan Jingchen heard the village chief retching outside the door.

"..."

Of course Yan Jingchen and Cheng Li, who have experienced many battles, are not afraid of this smell, but the reaction of the village chief must have been too great!

As the village head's wife said, half of the head had been smashed, so of course it didn't look very good. In addition, it had been left open for a few days, and even in winter, the rot and smell could not be stopped.Yan Jingchen first looked at the corpse by the light of the flashlight, and there was nothing unusual on the surface.

Yan Jingchen stretched out his hand to touch the corpse, and then mixed his spiritual consciousness with a trace of inner palace freshness, and circled around the corpse's head.

At this time, a strange thing happened.

I saw that the motionless corpse suddenly trembled violently, as if convulsed all over, and then the corpse suddenly sat up, with a crackling sound from its throat, as if its neck had been pinched and broken.

There was a bit of a commotion, Cheng Li immediately placed a Dao talisman on the door, and no sound could be heard.

At this moment, the sitting corpse slowly opened its mouth, the clenched teeth gradually loosened, and something shone brightly in his mouth.

The blue star-like light, Cheng Li recognized it, and Yan Jingchen would not admit that it was a fragment of the Kunlun Mirror!

Cheng Yan wanted to reach for it, but was stopped by Yan Jingchen.

"Senior brother?" Cheng Li was puzzled, there was no reason to hesitate.

"Wait a minute, I have something to ask him."

"Oh……"

Yan Jingchen asked the corpse, "Did you get killed?"

The corpse's eyeballs rolled rapidly, but it was unable to speak.

"Is it the village chief? Or someone else?"

When asked this question, the corpse first shook his head stiffly, and then the eyeballs rolled faster, the frequency was so high that it seemed that the eyeballs would pop out of their sockets in the next second.

"Is it because of the stuff in your mouth that someone wants to kill you?"

The corpse couldn't nod, it could only squint its eyes hard, as if it glanced at Yan Jingchen, and then the eyeballs rolled uncontrollably again.

Yan Jingchen no longer asked questions about his death, but said to the corpse: "The fragment of the Kunlun mirror in your mouth is mine, can you return it to me?"

The corpse shook his head.

"I know that your death is strange, and it's a crime of being pregnant, but now that people are dead, it's useless to leave the Kunlun mirror fragments on you. If you don't change your obsession, it will also make you lose the chance of reincarnation. What do you want to do?" Alright, it's hard to be a lonely ghost..."

The corpse fell silent immediately, and after a few seconds, the tongue loosened, and after sending out the Kunlun mirror fragments, it fell straight back into the coffin.

Cheng Ling hurriedly caught the fragments, cleaned them with the snow water from Kunlun Mountains that he carried with him, and wrapped the fragments up and handed them to Yan Jingchen after the dirty air attached to them dissipated.

Yan Jingchen collected the fragments, tidied up the clothes of the corpse, and pushed them back to the coffin board. He said to the corpse: "The person who harmed you will be dealt with by heaven. You can go to reincarnation with peace of mind."

When the two of them cleaned up and left the house, there were cigarette butts all over the village chief's feet under the wall.

"How is it?" the village chief asked tremblingly.

Yan Jingchen shook his head, "It looks like it's not as simple as slipping and falling, can you tell me where he went and who he met before he died?"

"Hey!" The village chief sighed, "Let's talk at home."

"Talk while you walk."

The village head did not refuse, and took the two of them to the entrance of the village, talking about what happened the other day.

It turned out that the person who died was the son of Lao Lu's younger sister. The younger sister never came back after marrying in the next village, but the uncle and nephew often met. These days the nephew came to play and knew other young people in the village. They made an appointment to go on a night trip to the mountain in the west of the village. It was said that there were ghosts in the mountain at night. Maybe they could meet a beautiful vixen and pick up some treasures.

Yan Jingchen was speechless when he heard this, these young people are not doing their business, and they probably read a lot of miscellaneous cultivation novels, otherwise, how could they have such daydreams, how could it be so easy to become a prince with their hair in their mouths?

A few young people didn't know the seriousness, and after entering the mountain, they laughed loudly and uttered wild words one after another.

A few young people in this village love to make trouble, and they instigate Lao Lu's nephew to go to the forbidden area in the mountains, saying that there are many treasures there, but only those who are capable can get the treasures.In order to prove his ability, Old Lu's nephew went alone with a flashlight. He wandered around Heisuo's forbidden area by himself, just when everyone thought he died inside, good guy!The lad came out.

Not only did the person come out, but he actually brought back a treasure.

He took out what he touched and showed it to everyone. It was a stone with no visible material and cold to the touch. It shone like stars in the darkness.

A group of idle young people suddenly became jealous and asked Old Lu's nephew to hand over the stone.

Of course Old Lu's nephew refused, why?He took this thing out of the forbidden area by himself, and the other people present were too timid to enter it, so now they come to take credit for it?

At that moment, Old Lu's nephew got into a fight with several young people in the village.

I don't know who said something: "Yang Cao, you thief, steal things from our village."

For a while, everyone echoed: "Yes, this thing was found from the mountain behind our village. Why do you take it, hand it over, hand it over!"

At this time, they all forgot their timidity and cowardice. For a strange and beautiful stone, they began to speak out and slander old Lu's nephew, that is, the young man named Yang Cao.

It seems that beating and scolding is not enough, someone moved a stone and threw it hard at Yang Cao's head...
