[75] Zhao Yan falls into a dream

When everyone heard this, they all said that Sun Chang took the blame for himself.Only Zhan Zhao frowned and asked: Isn't that one-eyed Taoist also in Sun's house?Besides, how could he let the zombie kill his nephew from the same clan if he was still a relative of the Sun family?Hearing Zhan Zhao's question, the old man shook his head and said he didn't know, and everyone was also puzzled.

The old man also talked about the other victims, they were all the same, but at night suddenly there were a few more zombies in the house, and the people in the house were bitten, and then died of the poison, even if they were buried in the ground after three days All the dead bodies will be gone.And if you want to see these corpses again, you can only see them at other people's homes at night.In this way, more and more people are killed one by one, as long as they are bitten by zombies, no one is spared.Hearing this, everyone in the room turned their attention to Xu Qing, and Xu Qing's face turned pale.Mu Yan went over and lifted the white cloth covering the wound, and saw that the glutinous rice covered on the wound had turned into charred black.Mu Yan nodded, washed the glutinous rice on the wound with rice wine, and applied new glutinous rice to bind it up.Looking at Xu Qing's tangled and distorted face, he said with a smile, "Don't worry, Third Brother Xu, you won't become a zombie. This method must be useful. You can see that the poison of the corpse is already gone."

Xu Qing was obviously worried and said with a distressed face: "Sister and brother, are you sure?"

Mu Yan was amused by his appearance and laughed straight: "Well, sure." Mu Yan thought, there must be no records of this method in ancient books, and the method used in modern third-rate zombie movies has been widely used by TV enthusiasts. As we all know, this method must have been handed down from ancient medical books.No matter how you say it, there must be a doctor in this town, right?Has the doctor not heard of it?

Zhan Zhao saw that there was something wrong with Mu Yan's expression, so he asked with concern: "Yan'er, what's the matter? Did you find anything?" Mu Yan said the question in her heart, and everyone nodded in agreement. "That's right, ordinary people don't know that this kind of prescription is possible, but the doctors in the town must know why so many people still die." Hearing the questions from several people, the old man replied: "There is only one medical center in the town. , was also opened by the Sun family, but I don’t know why the Sun family’s medical clinic has been closed since the first person died. Before, there were people who were bitten and wanted to be sent to the doctor, but Zhongmu County was too far away, and the doctor in Linzhen As soon as he saw this disease, the lion opened his mouth and asked for ten taels of silver for a pair of medicine. Who has so much money to pay, so they can only carry him back to wait for death. Today, after listening to my wife, I realized that the glutinous rice is not worth a few pennies. This kind of injury can be treated, the person who died before is really wronged."

Everyone sighed when they heard it, and they all said it was a pity, and they also scolded the doctor in Lin County for making money without virtue.Mu Yan asked the old man again: "Master, isn't there a family that can afford ten taels of silver?" The old man said yes, and it would be great if there were a few well-to-do families who went to treat it. I heard it was soup and medicine supplemented with external ointment It's not as simple as Mu Yan's two-pronged approach.When Xu Qing heard this, he became worried again, and hurriedly asked Mu Yan if it was useful to just apply glutinous rice like this.Mu Yan was annoyed by his question and said bitterly: "It's useless, your zombie teeth will grow out in a while." Sure enough, Xu Qing became nervous when he heard the words, and looked for mirrors all over the house, everyone couldn't laugh or cry.

After laughing, the topic turned to the case again.Everyone has doubts about the blind Taoist priest, the most urgent thing is to find that Yunyangzi first.Fortunately, the old man knew a few old folks in Sun's house, and these people still stayed at Sun's house to work, so the old man promised to bring those people to meet Zhan Zhao and the others.

Just after the time passed, the old man came to the post house with two people. The two people who were traveling with him were all about 40 years old. One of them was big and round, and he looked fierce. The old man said that his surname was Yuan and everyone called him Yuan Da. , who worked in the Sun family's kitchen, and was one of the few people who had seen Yunyangzi.After exchanging pleasantries, Yuan Da began to talk about Yunyangzi.According to him, Yunyangzi was very mysterious, and he hid in his room almost every day to play with pills. Sun Changxing set up a yard for him exclusively for Yunyangzi, and no one else was allowed to enter.Two meals a day were delivered by Sun Changxing himself. The only few times Yuan Da entered Yunyangzi’s yard was because he was given firewood and high-quality charcoal. Yunyangzi’s yard used a lot of firewood and charcoal. On average, it was delivered once every three days. Just two days before Sun Changxing's death, he delivered once. Seeing Yun Yangzi in the room where the pill stove was placed, although he had never spoken, he felt that the Taoist priest was a very gloomy person, every time he half-hidden behind the pill stove and watched him come in and go out.After Sun Changxing died, Yunyangzi never appeared again, and no one in the Sun family knew where he went, so Yuan Da never saw him again.

Everyone asked Yun Yangzi's appearance again, Yuan Da thought about it for a long time, scratched his head and scratched his head for a long time, but said he couldn't remember it.He also said that Yunyangzi always hid behind the alchemy furnace and only showed half of his face. He only remembered that there was a black mole under the right eyelid of the Taoist priest, which was very abrupt.Although Yunyangzi's portrait was not obtained, it was a breakthrough to have obvious features.

In the following days, several people successively rescued several people at night.Bai Yutang, who is proficient in the technique of Qimen gossip, built a small gossip array around the posthouse. Only those who are familiar with it can find the way in, and outsiders who don't know the way can only watch from the outside and cannot get in.In this way, all the rescued people and their own people are temporarily safe.Zhan Zhao and the four mice left Yangjia Town to inquire about Yunyangzi through friends in the rivers and lakes.

In the process of inquiring around, although Yunyangzi hadn't been seen yet.But by chance, I met Daoist Huaixin, the head disciple of Longhushan. After learning about Yangjiazhen, Daoist Huaixin explained to Zhan Zhao and his party why the zombies were a disaster.According to what the Taoist said, those dead people cannot be called zombies, because zombies are formed by the dead through a certain degree of stimulation and cheating corpses. Slapping a living person is an instinctive reaction to chasing anger, just like moths to a flame. Zombies have no IQ. Can't do complex actions like climbing the wall and opening the door.And Yang Jiazhen's seemingly intelligent ones, who can cooperate to kill people, should be zombies controlled by spells.Both Longhushan and Maoshan are masters of Taoism, and they have deep research on exorcising evil and avoiding evil. They immediately agreed to Zhan Zhao and the others to help subdue this group of zombies, and comforted Zhan Zhao and others by saying that the zombies should be responsible for Yunyangzi , but he must not have run far and should still be hiding in the Yang family town.As long as he puts down the altar to confront Yunyangzi, those zombies will lead them to find Yunyangzi.

Zhan Zhao and the Four Mouse returned to Yangjia Town together with Daoist Huaixin. The town was still as desolate as before, but fortunately, no one died.When the group returned to the post house, Bai Yutang welcomed them into the house. When he saw an old Taoist accompanying him, he thought that this person was Yunyangzi. He was wondering why Zhan Zhao and the others treated him so politely, and then listened to Lu Fang's introduction. Only then did he realize that it was the Taoist priest of Longhu Mountain who came to help, and he hurriedly put away his unruly look and treated him respectfully.

In the evening, Taoist Huaixin set up an incense table and set up an altar.After burning incense and talismans, the originally calm courtyard suddenly blew violently, and there seemed to be whimpering in the wind.The Taoist took out a piece of red rope dyed with cinnabar from his bosom, looped it into a slipknot, and threw it in the air. A strange thing happened, the red rope was suspended in the air and stopped moving.Everyone was amazed, and the Taoist priest explained that what was trapped was the soul of the deceased.

The red rope was tied in the air, Taoist Huaixin sat down in meditation, and it took about an incense stick for Taoist Huaixin to open his eyes and let out a long sigh.Mu Yan asked curiously: "Master, why are you sighing? Were you negotiating with the ghost just now?" Listening to Mu Yan's question, the Taoist smiled kindly and asked Mu Yan: "Madam, aren't you afraid?" Mu Yan shook her head and the Taoist priest said: "What the poor lament is, how many people died in Huangquan for the selfish interests of that Yunyangzi. After death, there is no peace, and the soul is incomplete and cannot be reborn." When Mu Yan heard that it was indeed Yunyangzi It's a trick, but why do you say that you are harming others for your own selfish benefit?What does Yunyangzi want a bunch of dead people for?

Hearing Mu Yan's repeated questioning, Huaixin shook his head and sighed endlessly: "From the point of view of the poor, this Yunyangzi should be trying to collect people's three souls and seven souls to refine immortality elixir. This kind of secret technique collects the three souls and seven souls of 81 people in Jiujiu, and with the help of secret elixir, they can gain longevity." 81 people?Not only Mu Yan, but even Zhan Zhao and the Five Rats were shocked. They dismissed the theory of longevity, and couldn't imagine that someone would kill so many people for such an unfounded thing.

Taoist Huaixin is also helpless: "From ancient times to the present, there are countless people who pursue longevity. But how many people can truly obtain immortality? But how many stupid people harm others and themselves for this illusory thing "Zhan Zhao asked in puzzlement: "Master Daoist, how did Yunyangzi bring the dead back to life?" Seeing his doubts, Taoist Huaixin explained his doubts: "That is a secret method of Maoshan. The Taoist method cooperates with the talisman to control the movement of the corpse. However, Yunyangzi's method is not very clever. A master can make the corpse not rot and even talk and act like a living person without being stiff. According to what you said, Yunyangzi is just It’s enough to make the corpse barely move, so it’s nothing to be afraid of.”

Mu Yan was speechless: "It's nothing to be afraid of. So many people have been killed at this level. If you are a middle-level expert, the entire town will be killed in one night." What Zhan Zhao and others are concerned about is how Can make Yunyangzi appear.Taoist Huaixin seemed confident about this, he stepped onto the altar and began to burn incense and chant mantras. After some magic spells, someone knocked on the gate of the post house.Huaixing signaled Zhan Zhao to open the door, and there were several zombies standing outside the door.But it seemed to be a little different. These zombies didn't show their teeth and claws to hurt people, but just stood outside the door with lowered eyebrows.Zhan Zhao turned sideways to make way, and several zombies slowly walked into the post house, and even knelt down in front of Taoist Huaixing, the whimpering sound in his mouth was exactly the same as the weeping in the wind.

Daoist Huaixing burned another talisman, bowed his head and said to the zombies: "Get up. When the poor Taoist finds Yunyangzi, he will save you and let you reincarnate as soon as possible." The zombies staggered to the the door.Daoist Huaixin motioned to Zhan Zhao and the others: "Let's follow." They followed closely behind until they reached a mass grave outside Yangjia Town, where there was a small shack where several zombies walked The surrounding areas of the mass grave refused to move forward, as if they were a little scared.

Daoist Huaixing nodded his thanks to the zombies.Zhan Zhao and the others surrounded him in the dark, and as they got closer, the situation of the small shack became more and more clear.Under the moonlight, there was a faint figure sneaking around in the shack.Several people gathered around, Bai Yutang took the lead and rushed in, followed by Zhan Zhao, and after a while of fighting, Zhan Zhao came out with one hand pushing a distressed old man, who seemed to be one-eyed, right-handed. There is a mole under the eyelid, this person is Yunyangzi.

In the court of Kaifeng Mansion, Yunyangzi confessed to the crime.Not only that, but he was also very proud of what he had done.Master Bao sternly asked: "Yunyangzi, Sun Changxing and you are related in the same clan, and as far as I know, he treats you very courteously, why did you kill him first?"

When Yun Yangzi heard Master Bao's question, he replied: "Father family, we are from the same clan or cousins. My father and his father are cousins. Back then, his father designed my father for a little family property. Later, my father became angry with me. But when I went to the court, Sun Changxing's heartless father bribed the county magistrate to beat my father to death in the court. I am not related to him but have enmity, so why can't I kill him? I think so Changsheng, if you use him first, you will save one innocent person from being killed." Yun Yangzi spoke eloquently.

Master Bao said angrily: "Shut up, you have killed so many lives for your own self-interest, and you are still arguing here. It is not enough for the people to be angry if the government does not kill you." After finishing speaking, Master Bao sentenced Yunyangzi to the dog serve.

Five days later, 81 Taoist priests headed by Taoist Huaixin and 81 eminent monks from Daxiangguo Temple set up an altar to perform salvation for innocent people who died. The magistrate of Zhongmou County, who was colluded with by the Sun family, was also severely punished by cutting officials and ransacking their homes and exiled them. official.

Walking with Zhan Zhao, I really learned a lot.Mu Yan is not a materialist, she has always been in awe of ghosts and gods, but this time she actually saw a living supernatural power.A piece of talisman can control the dead to move freely, which really gave Mu Yan, a good young man who was born in the new era and grew up under the red flag, a lot of insight.When Mu Yan killed Mu Yan in the 21st century, she liked to read metaphysics novels. She never thought that she would be lucky enough to participate in the ancient times. It was a worthwhile trip.After more than ten days of this incident, Mu Yan was still very excited. This day, Zhan Zhao was dragged by Mu Yan to tell a story. Poor Zhan Zhao's stomach full of stories has been cleaned up by Mu Yan in the past few days. Pulling Mu Yan to coax her, but he could only use his trump card to push Mu Yan down on her gums......
