Day and night tour

Chapter 119: The Method of Becoming a Zombie
A pale, dry human hand hung down from the hole.

Zhou Xuan put down the pipe pliers, stretched out both hands towards the hole, and made a "please look" gesture.

Lao Yang: "..."

Lu Mingkun said sarcastically: "This room is too clean!"

"Don't make any noise, I'm thinking."

Old Yang only felt that the sounds and movements around him were very harsh.
Even though Lu Kunming only said one sentence and Zhou Xuan didn't even say a word, he just felt it was extremely noisy and harsh.

Zhou Xuan picked up the pipe pliers again and continued to poke at the ceiling, twice to the left and twice to the right, until many cracks were made in the ceiling. The wall could no longer bear the force, and the corpse crushed the wall and fell straight down.

This corpse,

The limbs are intact, the head is intact,

But a strand of black hair has grown between his eyebrows.
At the same time, his abdominal cavity was opened and his internal organs were removed cleanly.

The death is "horrifying"...

Zhou Xuan threw away the pipe pliers, jumped down from the cabinet, and looked at the corpse carefully.

Lv Mingkun took the opportunity to bargain: "Boss Yang, you just agreed that if this room is not clean, it will be three hundred a month."

"I can't afford the rent!"

Lao Yang was really unwilling to give up six hundred for three hundred, so he started to cheat. But he didn't cheat often, and when he started howling, his face turned red with shame, and there was even a faint blood color at the roots of his ears.

Lu Mingkun could tell at a glance that Lao Yang was not the kind of person who would play tricks, so he started to have a good argument with Lao Yang. If not to mention three hundred, he would at least try to get the price down to four hundred and fifty.

Before he could finish his words, a sharp woman's voice came from the door.

"Hey, isn't this Mr. Zhao, the pockmarked Boss?"

The four people in the room looked outside and saw that it was Sister Cui.

Cuijie was making wontons diagonally opposite. When she heard the clanging noise in the room, she came over to see what was going on. She saw a corpse on the ground with its internal organs dug out.

She recognized the corpse; it was the previous owner of this store, Zhao Mazi.

"Old Yang, didn't you say that Boss Zhao closed the business because he felt that cleaning was tiring and unprofitable?" Sister Cui asked after she had calmed down a little.

"You run a snack stand, what do you know!" Old Yang was so angry that he reached out and closed the door.

Zhou Xuan finally understood.

He stood up and said to Lao Yang, "We are not the kind of people who like to take advantage of others. How about this, as you said just now, three hundred a month."

“……”Old Yang.

Isn't this taking advantage?
"Can I rent it?"

“I can’t rent it!”

"Forget it if we can't rent it. Let's part ways in peace." Zhou Xuan said, "But, I'm a bit of a big mouth and can't keep secrets. If I were to walk along the street, every household would tell you that Zhao Mazi died in your house, and died a very miserable death..."

"How much did you say per month?"

"three hundred."

"Two hundred and eighty!" Old Yang lowered the price on his own initiative, saying, "But you have to keep this matter about Zhao Mazi a secret, and don't tell anyone about it."

"Sign the document." Zhou Xuan struck while the iron was hot.

Others are afraid of making a dirty house, but he is not. Even if the house is dirty tonight, he will only ask one question - does the sneak in this house have four incense sticks?

If so, I can pay back the "debt" to the Blood Well tonight.

"I'll go back to the house and get a pen."

"I have!"

Zhou Xuan took a pen and paper, and without giving Lao Yang a chance to regret, he wrote the document and signed his name.

"Your name is Zhou Jun? Your handwriting is really beautiful."

Old Yang praised Zhou Xuan's calligraphy, and he meant it sincerely. In an age where handwriting is needed everywhere, good handwriting can not only be used to cultivate one's sentiments.

"Boss, please make two copies. Please sign and put your fingerprints on them." Zhou Xuan used a pen to paint the tip of his thumb black and pressed it on the document.

Lao Yang also put his fingerprints on the document and Zhou Xuan paid the money.

Pay six and deposit two, the total amount to be paid is two thousand two hundred and four. Zhou Xuan counted out the full amount of money and handed it to Lao Yang.

Old Yang was about to take it, but Zhou Xuan retracted his hand, pointed at the ceiling, then at Zhao Mazi's body, and asked, "We need to find a mason to repair the ceiling wall, and find someone to clean up Boss Zhao's body. Will it be you or me? As for the cost?"

"You can take it. I don't want to cause trouble, so I can charge you less." Lao Yang calculated the bill and said, "It's fifteen dollars to repair the wall, and it's more expensive to deal with the body, so I'll charge you fifty or sixty-five. Just give me sixty-five less."

"That won't work. I have to find someone myself. It's time-consuming and laborious, and it has to be converted into money." Zhou Xuan pulled back a green bill.

The banknotes issued by Jingguo have a maximum denomination of one hundred yuan and are issued by the "Jingguo Reserve Bank" with green as the base color.

Seeing that 2,240 yuan had turned into 2,140 yuan, Lao Yang took the money with tears in his eyes. Before leaving, he said bitterly, "Zhou Jun, right? You write such beautiful words, and you are not ambiguous in bargaining."

"Junior brother, I heard from Fourth Brother last time that you are very aggressive in business. I didn't expect that you could rent a house so flawlessly." Lu Mingkun praised in a low voice.

“Life has taught me a lot.”

I can’t say anything else about the young people in my previous life, but when it comes to renting a house, they are all very experienced and have all fallen into one pit after another.

Zhou Xuan thought of something, and walked out again, calling Lao Yang: "Lao Yang, the shop has been rented, but the house has not been rented yet?"

"Oh, that's right." Old Yang turned back and said, "This shop has two floors. The first floor is the shop, and the second floor is a long-term rental apartment. The stairs are at the back door. The rent is cheap, 100 yuan a month. I won't bargain this time."

Zhou Xuan counted out another six hundred and handed it to Lao Yang: "I won't negotiate your price, but since the room and shop are integrated, I won't pay any extra deposit."

"..." Lao Yang. Lao Yang took the six hundred yuan, found the house key from the key bag, handed it to Zhou Xuan, and said with a sigh: "Forget the deposit for the house, I'll make you my friend."

This is not just a compliment.

Lao Yang handles countless rental deals every year. Most of the tenants he meets are very picky, but they want to bargain but are too embarrassed to say it out loud, so they have to hide the price and let the tenant guess.

"I play mahjong for hundreds of dollars a minute, why would I waste time guessing with you guys?"

Lao Yang likes people like Zhou Xuan, who bargain openly and logically.

He felt that such a person was definitely good at doing business, and he would definitely expand the store in the future and could have long-term cooperation with him.

"Okay, you guys take your time. If you have any problems, come find me at the Da Si Xi Mahjong Hall... Of course, it would be best if nothing happens."

Old Yang put the money in his pocket and walked to Cuijie's snack stand in small steps. He had to take care of Cuijie's business and give her some change so that Cuijie would keep her mouth shut and not spread the news about Zhao Mazi outside.

For a big landlord, reputation is very important.

……

After returning to the house, Zhou Xuan wanted to do some ideological work on Lu Mingkun and Xiao Fuzi.

After all, it is a house that has been dirty before. Although I am not afraid of its noise, it is still a bit uncomfortable to live in it.

He had already organized his excuse, which was nothing more than "When you're away from home, you don't have much money with you, so save as much as you can. If your business accidentally expands, you can move to a better house."

Before he opened his mouth, he saw Lu Mingkun suddenly changed from his usual calmness, opened his arms, and breathed the air in the room with great enjoyment.

"Fifth Brother, what are you doing?"

"It's a great bargain. I definitely made the right choice for this house. It's worth fifteen thousand a month!"

“……”Zhou Xuan.

Zhou Xuan was even wondering if Lu Mingkun was speaking in a sarcastic way. Why did it sound a bit harsh?

"Fifth Brother, this is a dirty house."

"It's good to make a fuss. The bigger the fuss, the better."

Lu Mingkun turned to Zhou Xuan and said, "Little Junior Brother, don't forget, I am a Yin person, and you... at least the hall you are cultivating now is a Yin person."

"Is there anything special about this?" Zhou Xuan asked.

“It’s very particular.”

Lu Mingkun said: "It is one thing for Yin people to save incense, but... living in a Yin evil place is also helpful for incense. It does not increase rapidly, but increases slowly over a long period of time. Even though it increases a little every day, the incense saved by this method is the purest.

The evil energy in this room is so strong that it can breed black-haired zombies."

At this moment, Lu Mingkun really felt like he was back home. He reached out and stroked Boss Zhao on the ground, as if chatting casually, and said, "Before you dug up this body, I felt that there was really no Yin energy in this shop, but after it was dug out, the Yin energy overflowed and moisturized my whole body, making me feel comfortable.

Do you know what it feels like? It’s like we’re soaking in a hot spring pool, and every pore of our body is expanding.”

Zhou Xuan frowned, as if he saw another side of Lu Mingkun!
So you are this kind of Fifth Brother.

"This yin energy is coming out from the ceiling. There is something wrong with the design of this house. The feng shui is not good. In addition, this place is a funeral street, which itself has a lot of yin energy. As a result, a yin eye has grown on the ceiling of this house."

Zhou Xuan looked up at the ceiling and didn't see any eyes.

"The Yin Eye is just a name. It is actually like the dragon in Feng Shui. It has spirit but no form. Let's just live here. It will bring us great benefits."

Lu Kunming became more and more excited as he spoke.

"Brother Lu, you may be very excited, but I just have one question. What did you say this corpse was?"

"Black-haired zombies are a type of zombie, and they are quite ferocious."

"There are zombies?" Zhou Xuan has been in Jing Country for so long, but he has never paid attention to the term "zombies".

"Yes! After a person dies, the body can become stiff. There are two most common reasons for stiffness. The first is called Yin Qi Yang Blood, and the second is called Yin Sha Di."

This is another blind spot of knowledge that Zhou Xuan has never heard of.

He pulled the small stool in the room, sat down and listened carefully. Xiao Fuzi knew nothing about ghosts and gods, so he asked for the key and went to the second floor to clean.

Lu Kunming said: "What is Yin Qi and Yang Blood? Soon after a person dies, the soul begins to become unstable and is in a state of being about to leave the body, but not yet leaving the body.
At this moment, if you use nine drops of blood from between the eyebrows of a living person and drip them on the lips of a dead person, the dead person's yin energy will merge with the blood of the living person to form a barrier, sealing the soul in the body, and the person will become a zombie!

However, this living person's blood cannot be found randomly. It must come from someone who had a bond with the deceased during his or her lifetime, whether it be a spouse, a family member, or even an enemy. The emotional bond must be extremely strong.

Nine drops of blood between the eyebrows seal a body of love, hatred and obsession! "

"The second type is to raise zombies in a Yin Sha land. Any place with heavy Yin energy is a Yin Sha land. After the thick Yin energy wraps around the corpse, it will go through three stages:
The first stage is called entering the corpse. Yin Qi will penetrate into the blood, bones, skin, and flesh of the corpse. Growing hair and fangs, and the skin, flesh, and bones becoming as hard as iron are all manifestations of this stage.

In the second stage, the corpse is awakened. As the Yin energy becomes more condensed, it begins to develop intelligence and will actively harm people.

The third stage is called old zombies. They begin to actively absorb Yin Qi and practice from it, gaining many skills and abilities..."

Zhou Xuan understood.
"That is to say, there are two main types of zombies. Which is stronger, the zombies with Yin Qi and Yang Blood, or the zombies with Yin Evil Land?"

“Everyone has their own strengths.”

Lu Mingkun said: "The stiffness formed by Yin Qi and Yang Blood also has three stages, but the time between stages can be shortened artificially. In addition, his intelligence is high in the early stage. As long as he is properly nourished, he can start practicing in no time.
But once the zombies raised in the Yinsha Land have grown to a certain level, they can understand the way of heaven and earth!"

One is vigorous in the early stage, the other is strong in the late stage.

Zhou Xuan pointed at Zhao Mazi's body and said, "Then he should still be in the corpse stage of the Yinsha Land zombie, right?"

"Well, it's a small black-haired zombie, not very powerful. We have to deal with him!" said Lu Mingkun.

"How to deal with it?" Zhou Xuan asked Lv Mingkun...
