Chapter 228 Entering the forest together
Tian Lin thought differently. How could he have so much money to buy a walking corpse?
After thinking about it, Tian Lin took the initiative to invite the brother and sister and said:
"The mass burial forest next to Huilong Village must be densely packed with walking corpses. Maybe we can think of ways to catch a few walking corpses from the mass burial forest."
Zhou Jin was a little hesitant, but his sister simply smiled and said: "Why do you have to take risks yourself when you can solve the problem with money?"
This is a good thing to say, but the problem in Tian Lin is the lack of money.
Zhou Mengjiao added: "If Junior Brother Tian is short of money, I can buy a walking corpse for you."
Tian Lin saw a smile on her face, and it didn't look like she was insulting her.
Tian Lin smiled and said: "That's no need. If I can't hunt the zombies, I can still buy a low-grade zombie by gathering together the spiritual stones on my body and selling some things."
He felt that Zhou Mengjiao didn't like him, so he and his brother and sister bowed their hands and headed towards Huilong Village with their swords.
Zhou Jin stood up, looked at his sister and said dissatisfiedly: "I no longer force you to marry Junior Brother Tian, why do you bother to hurt others with your words?"
Zhou Mengjiao smiled and said: "This person surnamed Tian is still in the early stage of foundation building, but he has chosen not to learn the high-grade magical powers of our sect, but to learn the high-grade magical powers of other sects that do not have auxiliary elixirs.
For such an ambitious person, my brother doesn't think much of him, right? If not, why would you not mention the marriage between him and me?
I just don’t want to see you waste time on him, brother. ”
Zhou Jin thought of Ju Yunhai, and also thought of Tian Lin's ability to be promoted from Class D to Class C so quickly, and Elder Jin's attitude towards Tian Lin.
He stamped his feet and said, "If we can't be in-laws, we can still be friends. There's no need to speak ill of each other."
After he finished speaking, he also chased Tian Lin with his sword.
It's just that although he and Tian Lin were walking in the same direction, he didn't know Tian Lin's purpose.
By the time he arrived at the mass burial forest, Tian Linren had already appeared at the entrance of Huilong Village.
The old man who was in the middle stage of foundation building in Huilong Village was named Ran, or perhaps everyone in this village was named Ran.
And that old man Ran, who was in the middle stage of foundation building, was both the village leader and the patriarch of the people with the same surname in the village.
Tian Lin did not conceal his movements when he entered the village, especially when old man Ran quickly walked out of the house.
After he recognized Tian Lin, he frowned and said, "What's the purpose of Fellow Taoist Tian's coming here? You can't be here to buy mummies again."
A few hours ago, a "mummy rain" suddenly fell from the sky above Huilong Village. The old man also saw two mummies that he had just sold.
He caught the two mummies and put them in an ancient well to raise.
He didn't know how Tian and Lin lost the mummy after buying it. But he suspected that Tian Lin came to them to ask for mummies.
"The elder in my sect has changed his mission. Now Tian doesn't want mummified corpses, but only walking corpses."
Old man Ran was stunned and then said:
"Fellow Daoist Na Tian came to the wrong place. We can't raise walking corpses in the ancient well in Huilong Village. Daoist Ruotian wants to buy walking corpses. I know a few families who raise walking corpses there. Maybe I can help you ask." .”
Tian Lin shook his head. He smiled and pointed in the direction of the mass burial forest and said: "Aren't there ready-made walking corpses there? You can buy them with your own money, so why not catch them yourself?
Are you interested, Fellow Daoist Ran, for you and I to work together to catch the walking corpses? ”
How could Old Man Ran not be tempted by the zombies he picked up for free?
He asked Tian Lindao: "Where is that fellow Daoist Zhou? Are the three of us joining forces together?"
Tian Lin said: "Friend Ran, you have the cultivation level of the middle stage of foundation building, plus me. You and I must be enough."
"Don't be kidding, fellow Taoist. If you want to catch the walking corpses, you have to go deep into the mass burial forest. But when you enter the mass burial forest, even I can't withstand the corpse poison inside. At that time, I won't be able to use my full strength to catch the walking corpses." It’s even more difficult.”
He cursed in his heart that if it were so easy to catch the zombies, he would have joined forces with several village chiefs from other villages to do it.
"You have to try to know whether you succeed or not. Are you still afraid that I will trick you?"
Old man Ran frowned, he was not confident about the character of Taoist disciples.
At this time, the villagers were also awakened by the noise. They recognized Tian Lin, so they were not too wary of Tian Lin.
When they heard that Tian Lin was not here to retrieve the mummy, but to make a fortune from their clan leader, many people became greedy.
"A low-grade mummy is worth hundreds of high-grade spiritual stones. If we can catch one, it will be enough for us to spend a year.
Master, the children in our village want to buy magical artifacts, aren’t they short of money? The opportunity is rare. ”
When a woman opened her mouth, people immediately followed her.
Old man Ran gave the village women a cold look, but he also knew that the village was short of money.
After thinking for a moment, Mr. Ran looked at Tian Lin and said, "Okay, I will go with you. It will make your heart feel better."
After he finished speaking, he went back to the house and took a lantern and a piece of clothing from the house.
Tian Lin saw that he had changed into mourning clothes and couldn't help but frown.
He took the mourning clothes thrown by the old man and gave the old man a puzzled look.
The old man said: "In fact, some of the corpses buried in the mass burial forest are old people from our village. If you wear these clothes, these old people will not attack you easily."
Tian Lin put his clothes into his storage bag, but was not in a hurry to put them on.
The old man couldn't trust him, and he himself didn't quite trust the old man.
At this time, several villagers changed their clothes and took wind lanterns, but the old man waved his hand and said: "It's so late at night, are you going to cheer for us? Go back." These villagers only have the cultivation level of Qi Refining. , it really can’t be of much help.
After the old man drove away the villagers, Tongtian Lin Yujian quickly arrived at the mass burial forest.
Not long after they landed, Zhou Jin, who was hiding in the bushes outside the mass grave forest, came out:
"I just said that Junior Brother Tian wouldn't do it without targeting. It turns out that he thought of a wonderful way to catch the walking corpses and invited experts from Huilong Village."
Tian Lin was also a little surprised by Zhou Jin's arrival. He was quite happy to return the gift to Zhou Jin and said:
"We want to catch the walking corpses, and we must ask the locals for help no matter what. Firstly, the locals know the local situation better, and secondly, fellow Taoist Ran has been chasing corpses for generations. In dealing with these corpses, none of us Taoists can compare with him."
He praised old man Ran and expressed his goodwill. Lest Zhou Jin's sudden appearance would make the old man think that the two of them were sincerely plotting against him.
But Old Man Ran is in the middle stage of foundation building, so he will not be easily murdered by Tian Lin and Zhou Jin.
Zhou Jin's appearance made Tian Lin less worried about being stabbed in the back by the old man.
After the three parties met, Tian Lin threw the mourning clothes in the storage bag to Zhou Jin and listened to him:
"If you want to catch the walking corpses, you must go deep into the mass burial forest. But once we enter the depths of the mass burial forest, our strength will be suppressed.
So the best way is to find someone to lead the zombies from the depths to the outside. Firstly, this way we will not be attacked by the zombies, and secondly, the walking corpses lose the nourishment of corpse energy, and we are no longer bothered by the corpse energy. The decline of the one and the increase of the other can subdue the walking corpses.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Third, let’s arrange the formation on the outside first, introduce the zombies into the formation, and turn the disadvantage into an advantage——"
After he finished speaking, Old Ran looked at Tian Lin unkindly and said, "Then according to Fellow Taoist Tian's plan, who will go deep into the depths to lure the zombies?"
Zhou Jin also looked at Tian Lin, thinking that Tian Lin was trying to force Old Ran with him.
But Tian Lin smiled and said: "I came up with the strategy, so of course I will lead the zombies."
Old man Ran looked at Tian Lin seriously, trying to see if he was speaking sarcastically.
Zhou Jin also frowned at this time and said: "If not, the three of us will go in together to attract the walking corpses?"
Tian Lin is in the early stage of foundation building. There is no reason for people in the early stage of foundation building to do such risky things.
But if he were asked to go in and attract the zombies, he would not be so willing to sacrifice himself for others.
In the final analysis, if it really didn't work out, he could just spend the spirit stones to buy a walking corpse, and there was no need to risk it.
"Senior brother, don't worry too much. I will run away if things go badly. Besides, if you give me two more antidote pills, everything will be fine."
Tian Lin looked at Old Man Ran and said: "I will lead the walking corpses, and you, fellow Taoist Ran, will support me from behind. As for my senior brother Zhou, he is guarding the formation outside."
Old man Ran thought for a while and finally nodded.
Zhou Jin also nodded to Tian Lin. He knew that Tian Lin put him on the outside, so he might not have the intention of guarding against old man Ran.
After all, if his two foundation-building monks died, wouldn't they just be two walking corpses picked up for nothing?
The three of them agreed on their agenda. Zhou Jin took six antidote pills and handed them to Tian Lin, and then handed the compass to Tian Lin.
Old man Ran thought for a while and took out a small box from his storage bag. He opened the small box and found a dozen dark and shiny maggots squirming inside.
"If you are injured by a corpse, you can put maggots on the wound to help heal it."
Tian Lin accepted the things handed over by the two men, smiled and said: "Okay, let's wait until dawn before entering the mass grave forest."
Daylight soon broke, and the three of them were full of energy.
They entered the mass burial forest hand in hand and quickly chose an open space outside to stay.
"The walking corpse has a little bit of wisdom, but it is not enough to see through the formation. So when setting up the formation, just set up the killing formation."
Old man Ran set up a few more small formations based on the formations set up by Tian Lin and Zhou Jin.
With everything in place, Zhou Jin stayed behind while Tian Lin and Old Man Ran continued to move forward.
The two of them were walking in front of each other, both of them secretly sizing up each other.
The old man's expression remained normal throughout the journey, and he seemed to be unaffected by the corpse aura. This was not what Tian Lin had expected.
After all, the old man is a corpse chaser, and he has cultivation in the middle stage of foundation building. If a little corpse energy makes the other party feel uncomfortable and needs to take detoxifying pills to detoxify, then why should he ask the old man for help?
But Tian Lin's expression remained normal, which was beyond the old man's expectation.
He couldn't help but ask Tian Lindao: "Did Taoist friend also learn the Taoist methods of the Corpse Exorcist Sect?"
Tian Lin shook his head and said: "My only connection with funerary science is probably the practice of earth-sealing art."
The old man was surprised and said: "The Xiangxi Sect's Earth-Sealing Technique? That is a magical power that is difficult to cultivate - but even if you practice the Earth-Sealing Technique, you shouldn't be so careless about corpse poison, right?"
Tian Lin didn't say anything, but just stuffed an antidote pill from his storage bag into his mouth.
The old man couldn't bear it anymore. Instead of taking the detoxification pill, he took an unknown pill and stuffed it into his nose.
"Further forward, we will reach the depths of the Mass Burial Forest. I am waiting here for good news from my fellow Taoist."
