My master is the coffin

Chapter 601 The Living Dead

Seeing that the sun is already westward.The thin man sighed, and said: "This formation has no size. As long as you stick to it for a day and a night, it will be considered as a pass."

The abbot asked very sensitively: "What will happen after passing? Can I go to your clan?"

The thin man shook his head, and said with some embarrassment: "Not yet."

The abbot clapped his hands: "Sure enough, I knew this would happen a long time ago." Then he patted the thin man on the shoulder, and said with some grief and indignation: "What else is there? Let's talk about it? Even if we let us die, we will die knowingly .”

The thin man opened his mouth, as if he didn't know what to say.Finally, he made up his mind and said, "The place where the living live is the city. The place where the dead stay is the coffin."

The abbot nodded: "There is no need to repeat this kind of nonsense that a three-year-old child knows."

The thin man ignored the abbot's rudeness.He said: "Our clan land is in this desert. But its location is not fixed. Therefore, even if outsiders pass through the big formation by chance, they will not be able to find it."

Fang Zhang asked, "What does this mean?"

The thin man said: "Originally, the clan land was a city. The reincarnated soul can find the city according to the map. Later, it was difficult to continue the pilgrimage. In order to protect the clan land from being taken by outsiders, we started to wander on this land. ...walking every day, in other words, the location is different every day."

At this time, even Bixi, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help saying: "Young man, are you kidding us? We came so far, tell me, you don't know where the clan is at all?"

The thin man looked at us who were furious, shook his head slightly, and said, "It's not difficult to know where the clan land is, but the difficult thing is the process in between."

None of us spoke. We just looked at the thin man and motioned for him to continue.

The thin man said: "There will be a desert in front of you. Under the yellow sand, I don't know how many dead bones have been buried."

I nodded: "There are many places here that are ancient battlefields, and it's not surprising that bones are buried in yellow sand."

The thin man hummed, and then said: "If there is grass, there will be cattle and sheep. If there are rivers, there will be boats. There are countless bones under the yellow sand. In this place, the corpse refiner was born."

We were taken aback and blurted out: "What is corpse refining?"

The thin man said: "Corpse refinement is to bring the dead body back to life. Of course, it doesn't really come back to life, but turns into a walking dead."

"Thousands of years ago, the art of refining corpses was popular here. It was first spread among the people, and then passed to the hands of the nobles. The person who invented this method may be a wife who misses her dead husband, or the mother of a warrior. They don't Knowing how many generations of hard work and how many failures they have experienced, their loved ones have finally stood up again. These living dead can't speak and have no memory, but they can walk, sit and lie down. Those who lost their loved ones see With them, you can relieve the pain of lovesickness."

"Later, these spells were improved by several experts. The nobles began to quietly form an army. These troops were composed entirely of dead corpses and were manipulated by corpse refiners. Corpses did not feel pain and were absolutely loyal. Come to war, unless you cut it to powder, if it has only one mouth left, it will bite you."

"This kind of army was built quietly. But it didn't have time to send it to the battlefield. The corpse controllers were too confident in their means, and they didn't expect that one day these corpses would get out of control. So these small countries, overnight , disappeared into history. Men, women, children, and none of them survived."

When I heard the thin man's narration, I could not help shivering as I thought of the city full of shouts and blood everywhere.

The thin man continued: "After all, the news of these living dead people spread. Everyone in the surrounding small countries was in danger, and finally united to strangle these living dead people. As expected, the fighting power of these dead people was Several times that of living people. After paying a painful price for a few of these small countries, they finally won."

"Everyone thinks that the corpse controllers have completely disappeared. The living dead have also been completely wiped out, but in fact they are still there, but they have been subdued by my people."

The abbot swallowed, and said with lingering fear: "Skinny man, don't you mean to say that these dead bodies are on the way to your clan's land?"

The thin man nodded: "On the only way."

The abbot wailed: "My God." Then he squatted on the ground covering his face.

Wushuang said: "No matter how powerful these corpses are, they are just ordinary people after all. With our strength, they shouldn't be able to stop us, right?"

The thin man nodded: "Of course they can't stop us. But there is a difficulty in this matter. We can't kill them."

We were surprised and asked, "Why?"

The thin man said, "Because only they know where the clan land is."

Looking at our shocked eyes, the thin man continued to explain: "As I said just now, my tribe has been wandering here since thousands of years. At the beginning, it was the corpses of the manipulators who migrated. Later, the god stone was discovered, and the tribe Most of the casualties, they finally abandoned the clan land and fled to the Central Plains. The corpses of the clansmen of the past generations were all packed in coffins. Carried by these dead corpses, they continued to wander in the yellow sand all over the sky. So in other words, those coffins, It is our clan land."

I imagined the scene of the dead body carrying the coffin in my mind, and I couldn't help saying silently: "It's really a crime."

The abbot said: "Thin man, things don't seem to be as complicated as you said. We find the so-called corpses, kill them all in pieces, and take the coffin back, isn't it all right?"

The thin man looked at the abbot like an idiot, and then said: "First of all, there are a lot of dead bodies. After all, they are composed of the population of several small countries. No matter how few people are in these small countries, there are always tens of thousands of people. You want to put I'm afraid it's not easy to kill them all. I guess, if you kill one, you will be mobbed. Besides, not all the dead bodies carry coffins. Sometimes, even if you kill all the dead bodies, you may not be able to find the coffin .”

The abbot asked helplessly, "Then what do you say?"

The thin man shook his head bluntly: "I don't know."

The abbot was anxious: "You don't know? Why don't you know about the affairs of your clan?"

Mrs. Zhang asked: "Is it because these memories have not been retrieved, so you don't know?"

The thin man shook his head: "At that time, the people in the clan were almost extinct. The people in the clan were only focused on fleeing to the Central Plains, and there was no time to clean up those coffins. Therefore, the situation today was just an accident. Since it was an accident, no one thought about it in advance. The solution."

Zhang Yuan frowned and thought for a while, then said: "There is no absolute in everything. Even if it is an accident, there must be a way."

Mrs. Zhang said suddenly: "I can use souls to make puppets. If these dead bodies can also be manipulated by me, then it will be much more convenient for us to do things."

After hearing Mrs. Zhang's words, we were not excited.Because everyone knows that the gap between a puppet made of soul and a dead body is really too big.

Wushuang said: "I remember the demon way back then, it seems that you can also manipulate corpses."

I nodded: "That's right, the demon can manipulate not only corpses, but also living people. Didn't the skinny Taoist priests of the past have been manipulated by him for a long time?"

The thin man said: "I remember the way the demon way manipulates people, it seems to use spells?"

We all nodded.The thin man said: "It's a pity that the charms of the Central Plains have never been spread to the Western Regions. I'm afraid the dead bodies here are not manipulated by spells. What's more, if the thousands of dead bodies are drawn with charms, what kind of monkey years and horses and months will be drawn?" "

The thin man's words made us worry again.

At this time, the red sun was setting in the west, and the sky gradually darkened.

The thin man said: "When you walk here later, if you come across those dead bodies, try not to kill them. They have been refined by the corpse controllers, and they already have simple thinking. Once they become enemies with us, things may be very serious. trouble."
