"How is it possible? I didn't see many people along the way."
"It's better to be careful. The security in Dragon Kingdom is getting tighter now."
The people in the tent were Bill, the senior executive of the Nine-Headed Bird Headquarters, and his men. Bill nodded and asked: "How far is it to Fengmen Village?"
The subordinate checked the electronic map and replied: "Boss, there are still about 150 kilometers."
Bill complained: "This wretched place doesn't even have a good road." He shook his head and continued to make arrangements, "Everyone take a rest, and the secret sentry will continue patrolling. If anyone approaches..."
Before he finished speaking, a bell suddenly rang. Bill instinctively turned off the flashlight and looked around, only to see a group of figures wearing black hoods and cloaks slowly approaching under the moonlight.
"What's going on? Where's the secret whistle? Why didn't anyone report it?" Bill and his men were frightened. "These people appeared so strangely that we didn't even notice."
Bill frowned and looked at the group of figures until they stopped to rest next to the big stone pier. He waved his hand to signal everyone to keep quiet, and then ordered softly: "Everyone is on alert!"
In another corner, Zhang Qilin caught a glimpse of a huge stone on the side of the road, so he slowed down, turned around leisurely, and the soul-inducing bell in his hand rang.
"Ring ring ring..."
The ringing echoed in the silent mountains, and the pale moonlight shone on every silent figure.
Zhang Qilin sang in a low voice while shaking the soul-inducing bell.
"Use the power of Tiangang Beidou to attract the light of Earthly Evil's Southern Star, and obey my orders!"
"Stop!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Qilin shook the soul-inducing bell again.
"Ring ring ring..."
Under the guidance of the bell, the ten figures behind them all lowered their arms that were originally raised flat.
Zhang Qilin breathed a sigh of relief, bent down and took off the yellow talisman paper on his trouser legs, looked at the moonlight for a moment, and said to himself.
"The magical talisman given by Shopkeeper Zhang is indeed extraordinary."
"The speed of chasing corpses has increased by more than ten times!"
"If we continue like this, we may be able to reach the military area tomorrow."
He recalled the scene where a van turned around and fled in terror when he was walking on the road with these figures, and he couldn't help but feel helpless.
“Although walking on the road is faster, there are so many people and it’s confusing.”
"In comparison, although the mountain road is rugged, it is more stable."
While he was thinking, Zhang Qilin suddenly shut up and moved his ears slightly, catching the subtle footsteps around him.
He carefully put the magic talisman into his pocket and scanned the surrounding weeds and trees with burning eyes.
This footsteps...
Could it be that someone is following you secretly? Zhang Qilin sat on the boulder and took a rest, not paying attention to the group of people because they were still far away and their breath was not enough to hit these figures.
He picked up a dead branch and traced it on the ground.
Bill, who was lurking in the dark, frowned and stared at the group of figures, filled with doubts.
Judging from their actions, it was obvious that they were not coming for their group.
But in the middle of the night, in the wilderness, how could such a group of people appear inexplicably?
Nowadays, everyone in the world cherishes their lives, and few people are willing to go out late at night for fear of getting into unnecessary trouble.
But these people...
"Boss, do you want to deal with them?" Bill's men asked.
Bill squinted his eyes and carefully observed Zhang Qilin and the figures beside him.
Zhang Hao once taught Zhang Qilin that when driving away a corpse, the corpse should be covered with a cloak or other covering. If it is not available, it can also be covered with weeds.
This can not only block the evil spirit emitted by the corpse, but also reduce the fright to passers-by.
Therefore, when Bill looked at the figure beside Zhang Qilin at this moment, he did not recognize that it was the killer of the Nine-Headed Bird.
He shook his head and said softly: "These people are a little weird. Let's not alert them first and see what their purpose is!"
The men looked at each other and felt that Bill was too cautious.
Although these people are weird, there is nothing special about them.
The only puzzling thing is that he didn't notice them when they appeared near him.
At this time, Zhang Qilin looked back at those figures, and suddenly stood up, as if he had thought of something.
"If these figures are affixed with magical talismans..."
"Will they go faster?"
Thinking of this method, Zhang Qilin hurriedly took out a pen, yellow paper and cinnabar from his arms.
He quickly drew the symbol of the magic talisman on the yellow paper, nodded with satisfaction, and then pasted it on a figure.
Then Zhang Qilin pointed to the figure with the magic walking talisman affixed, and the corpse exorcism bell in his hand rang again.
"Ring ring ring..."
"Use the power of Tiangang Beidou to attract the light of Earthly Evil's Southern Star. Listen to my orders and get up!"
As the words fell, the figure suddenly opened his eyes and raised his arms.
"Go forward!" Zhang Qilin shouted softly.
The figure with the magic talisman affixed to it immediately jumped forward after hearing the order.
However, this step was not as far as expected. It only jumped about one meter towards the corpse-catching bell in Zhang Qilin's hand.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Qilin couldn't help but shook his head and thought to himself.
It seems that the movement speed of the figure is only related to the corpse chaser.
The faster the corpse chaser is, the faster the figure will be. This magical talisman has no obvious effect when attached to the figure.
When the experiment failed, Zhang Qilin had no choice but to sit on the boulder again and continue to ponder the method of drawing talisman that Zhang Hao taught him.
The people in Nine-Headed Bird breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Zhang Qilin's series of actions just now.
"Boss, this person is either a charlatan or a charlatan. I think we are overthinking it!"
"Yes, boss, it's obviously not normal for me to be ringing bells and gongs in the middle of the night."
"Boss, should we deal with them directly? To avoid long nights and nightmares!" At this time, Bill shook his head. Now that he had determined that these people were neither from the military nor the police, he didn't take them to heart.
And judging from their behavior just now, Bill didn't think these people could pose a threat to him, so he said: "It's troublesome to deal with them. Even if he is a lunatic, if his body is found the next day, we will be more passive."< br>
"Where do you think this is? This is the territory of the Dragon Kingdom!"
"Since he does not pose a threat to us, then leave him alone and everyone quickly find a place to rest. We have to continue to Fengmen Village!" Bill waved his hand and gave the order.
The members of the Nine-Headed Bird responded one after another, quietly retreating, and after maintaining a certain distance, they set up their tents with peace of mind.
Due to Zhang Qilin's presence, Bill led the team away from that area, ensuring that he kept enough distance from Zhang Qilin, just in case.
"Boss, I always feel that the person just now gave me an inexplicable sense of familiarity. It's really strange!" A subordinate couldn't help but express his doubts to Bill.
Bill didn't pay too much attention. He got into his sleeping bag and responded calmly: "Can a mentally unstable person make you feel like this? If you are really worried, go back and check."
He then ordered: "Tell the people on patrol that smoking is strictly prohibited, and that both light and dark sentries must stay awake and change shifts every hour. The password tonight is 'There is someone under the moon.'" After speaking, Bill closed his eyes, and his men Then he muttered to himself that he didn't want to provoke that seemingly crazy person.
As Bill's order was conveyed, silence gradually returned to the tent.
After an unknown amount of time, Bill felt a hand pressing heavily on his chest in his sleep, making him breathless. He opened his eyes and looked drowsily, and was surprised to find a person lying next to him, and this person was his old acquaintance - the boss!
Bill sat up in horror, a series of questions running through his mind. He clearly heard that the boss had encountered an accident in Fengmen Village, so why did he suddenly appear here?
Bill, who was always cautious and ruthless, kicked the boss violently, but it felt as if the kick was in vain. He opened his eyes suddenly and found that he was still lying in the dark tent, and the boss had disappeared.
"Huh" Bill breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that everything just happened was just a dream.
"This boss is really not good for people even if he dies." Bill wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and prepared to continue resting. However, at this moment, he caught a glimpse of a tall black figure appearing outside the tent.
"Who?!" Bill woke up instantly and looked at the black shadow outside the tent warily.
The moonlight shines on the tent, making the dark shadows even more eerie. Bill pushed the man next to him, who also woke up from his nightmare and looked at the black shadow outside the tent in horror.
"Boss, what's wrong?" the subordinate asked.
Bill pointed to the dark shadow on the tent and said nothing. The men looked at the shadow in confusion, "Is this a patrol sentinel?"
Bill motioned to his men to go out and check the situation. The men carefully opened the zipper of the tent and stuck their heads out to check. However, what he saw was a strange figure wearing a black cloak, standing quietly.
The men immediately recognized the similarity between this figure and those strange characters they had encountered before. What surprised him even more was that the logo of their Nine-Headed Bird organization was revealed under the cloak of this figure!
"Is this the armband of our Nine-Headed Bird? Is it one of our own?" His subordinates were filled with doubts and uneasiness. However, when he tried to question this strange figure, the corpse suddenly opened its eyes, revealing a terrifying face.
The men were so frightened that they fell to the ground screaming. At this time, frightened screams were also heard from other tents, and the entire camp fell into chaos.
An ominous premonition arose in Bill's heart, and he quickly picked up his gun and prepared for battle. However, at this moment, he felt a dry, wrinkled, blue-black hand put on his shoulder. Bill slowly turned his head and saw the boss's terrifying face.
"Ah!" Bill screamed in horror, "Ghost!"
When Bill witnessed the horrific scene, his whole body trembled, and the gun in his hand slipped unconsciously.
Those figures are simply scarier than ghosts!
In an instant, everyone fled from the tent in panic, gathered together, and looked at each other. Someone said with a trembling voice:
"What a ghost. I just saw them in my dream, and when I woke up, I actually saw these terrible evil spirits!"
"Did you dream about it too? I thought I was the only one who had this kind of nightmare!"
"I dreamed about it too. Are we all the same? Are these things humans or ghosts?"
"Don't worry about it, shoot first and then talk!"
……
……
At the same time, Zhang Qilin stood up quietly not far away, glanced at everyone indifferently, and said to himself:
"Those who violate the rules of my inn will be punished."
At first, Zhang Qilin noticed that these people quietly evacuated and had no intention of pursuing them. However, the corpses he brought seemed to have some mysterious connection with them. Whenever these people get close, the corpse becomes extremely restless.
This made Zhang Qilin deeply confused.
So, he decided to release his hold on the corpse and see what they wanted to do. As a result, the corpses actually led him all the way to Bill's camp.
The corpses seemed to have some kind of close connection with these people, and Zhang Qilin couldn't help but recall what Zhang Hao once said.
Although the corpse is the product of death, if they have obsessions during their lifetime, it may cause the corpse to become immortal and influence the behavior of the corpse based on the obsession.
For example, if a person who drowns has obsessions after death, he will easily become a water ghost in the water, waiting for the next person to fall into the water.
These nine-headed birds died in despair, waiting for rescue from the upper levels. This may be their obsession.
Now, they finally saw the nine-headed bird, and the corpses naturally got close to them.
This scene convinced Zhang Qilin that these people were members of the Nine-Headed Bird.
Although they were wearing casual clothes, they were wearing Nine-Headed Bird's special sweatshirts with the Nine-Headed Bird logo printed on them, making them very easy to identify.
Naturally, Zhang Qilin didn't have a good impression of the Nine-Headed Bird. After all, they had broken into his inn before.
The purpose of these people is obvious. They come to Yin Yang Inn to cause trouble!
Now that he has encountered it, Zhang Qilin will naturally not let it go. He couldn't let them go to Yin Yang Inn to cause trouble.
Zhang Qilin reached behind his back and grasped the handle of the ancient black gold sword. But he hesitated and ultimately did not pull out the ancient black gold sword.
"Using the black gold ancient sword to deal with you is simply an insult to it."
"Moreover, the shopkeeper said that the corpse exorcists should not kill innocent people indiscriminately on the way to avoid corpses, so as not to suffer karma..."
Thinking of this, Zhang Qilin raised the corpse exorcism bell in his hand, shook it violently, and shouted loudly:
"Ring ring ring..."
"Tiangang Beidou, earth evil southern star, listen to my orders!"
"Corpse, get up!"
Today, Zhang Qilin is able to skillfully manipulate corpses to make some simple movements. Not just regular jumps and turns, but corpses can also be blasted and slashed.
On the boring road of driving corpses, Zhang Qilin often studied these techniques during breaks. Now, it is very easy for him to control all the corpses to chase the nine-headed bird.
"Run quickly, this is not a human being!"
"It's the boss who came back to us after they died!"
"I don't want to die, I don't want to be killed by ghosts...save me!"
When have the people of Nine-Headed Bird ever seen such a scene? When they saw the hideous-looking corpse rushing towards them, they were frightened to death. Thinking that these people have died long ago, why are they not ghosts now? (End of chapter)
