Chapter 42 Black Coffin
"Can we find him now?"
The method of retracing back consumes too much mana, so Huang Daxian Gu rested for a while before propping herself up with her limbs: "The only way is to go back to Wuxian Cave and ask Liuxian for help."
Zheng Wenjie took out a green magatama and remembered the green smoke that would be produced when the green magatama transmitted sound, which might lead him to find Baidu.
Recalling the snake head and body of Baidu in the art of retrospection, a green smoke rose from the green magatama, carrying the "Baidu" spoken by Zheng Wenjie, and flew through the roof. Zheng Wenjie's mind moved, and the green smoke retreated back into the house.
Huang Daxian Gu looked at the magatama in Zheng Wenjie's hand and couldn't help but say, "Let's go find Baidu directly and not meet this family. This man's soul has been eaten by the thing in his stomach. By the time the thing in his stomach comes out, he will be dead."
"This has nothing to do with you, why are you ashamed?" Zheng Wenjie ignored Huang Daxian Gu's opinion, picked her up and walked out of the house. Zhang Tianlu and Liu the Hunter were boiling water and killing chickens in the yard. When they saw Zheng Wenjie coming out, they thought it was over and were very happy. Just as they were about to speak, they were interrupted by Zheng Wenjie: "I'm sorry, the person can't be saved. The person is not crazy, but was harmed by a monster."
Both of them were stunned by these words, and Liu the Hunter's original excitement also dissipated: "Is my wife going to be like this in the future?" Zheng Wenjie shook his head: "No, she will die, and she won't live long. Now she is just a walking corpse. All I can do is to help her get revenge and kill that monster."
Liu the Hunter didn't know whether he should be sad or relieved. He had no feelings for the wife he married through a matchmaker, but she went crazy the very next day. No one could stand this.
Even if he goes crazy, you still have to support him, otherwise the reputation of the whole neighborhood will be ruined and the whole family will not be able to hold their heads up. But all the troubles, burdens and encumbrances will be solved once and for all if he dies, and you can also marry a normal wife.
Zhang Tianlu was unwilling to accept it. How could such a good person just die like this? But since Zheng Wenjie had said so much, he could only sigh: "Huang Xian, brother, what should we do next? Wait?"
"Her soul has been used as food by the monster. The best way now is to send her off so that she doesn't suffer any more." Huang Daxian said, and buried her head in Zheng Wenjie's chest.
"It depends on your opinion. Should I help you send her off, or you should do it by yourselves, or wait until she turns into a walking corpse." Hearing this, Zhang Tianlu looked at Liu the Hunter. Liu the Hunter's eyes were staring at him. Liu the Hunter had already made up his mind. No matter what kind of monster it was, the most important thing now was not to bear this trouble.
Zhang Tianlu was helpless. Hunter Liu had made up his mind. He was afraid that if he spoke up, he would spread the news and make him bear the reputation of killing his wife. "Although Liu's wife is like this, she is still alive. We can't kill her. We can only ask brothers for help."
Huang Daxiangu turned her head and looked at the two of them. This was different from what she expected. She thought there would be crying and begging again, but the two of them accepted it so calmly.
Zheng Wenjie took Huang Daxiangu to talk to the two people and returned to the house. Looking at the woman on the kang, Zheng Wenjie looked at Huang Daxiangu and said, "Come here."
"No, I can't kill ordinary people. My cultivation is not something I cultivated myself. My grandmother said that if I kill someone, I'm killing myself."
After being rejected by Wong Tai Sin Gu, Zheng Wenjie had no choice but to say sorry to the woman and covered her mouth and nose with his hands. He wanted to leave the woman's body intact and did not want to leave any traces on her body. However, although he could use his zombie power freely, he did not know any skills like shooting a cow from a distance. This was the best way, and the woman would not have a bad reputation after her death. Although it was definitely not voluntary, if the baby in her belly was born, the villagers would not care whether the woman was a victim or not.
He closed the woman's eyes, withdrew his hand, and asked Huang Daxian Gu: "Can you still fly?"
"Not yet. I will recover quickly after the moon comes out tonight." Zheng Wenjie took Huang Daxian Gu out of the yard, nodded to the two of them, and left. He ignored Liu the hunter's concern about monsters and Zhang Tianlu's attempts to keep him, and left Changlong Village.
If he were Liu the Hunter, he would have made the same choice, but seeing Liu the Hunter make the decision so quickly, he still felt uncomfortable. Zheng Wenjie also knew that he was being hypocritical.
Qingyan was swaying in front and leading the way. Zheng Wenjie walked for a while holding Huang Daxiangu. Seeing that it was the same road they came from, he became a little annoyed and no longer concealed his identity. He opened the fangs in his mouth and stared at Qingyan, who was no longer restrained, with his green pupils, as she flew away like a meteor. He increased his speed, leaving a few afterimages behind as he chased after it.
Bai Du was lying on a black coffin, breathing slowly and deeply, sleeping soundly. He had discovered this tomb by accident more than 30 years ago. It was empty except for a coffin, with no funerary objects. There were some strange murals on the wall, but Bai Du's lazy nature did not arouse any curiosity. Every time he came to the coffin and curled up, he felt refreshed all over. Bai Du felt that he could no longer live without this coffin. For more than 30 years, except for the necessary eating and drinking, he had been sleeping lazily on this coffin.
Suddenly he raised his head, shook his head and looked around for a while before lying back down. It must be because his ancestor hit his head yesterday, and he actually heard someone calling him.
Watching the green smoke disappear into a snow-covered hill, Zheng Wenjie stopped on the hill and stroked Huang Daxiangu, who was trembling with fear because of his sudden change in aura. With green pupils, he looked down at the ground and said to Huang Daxiangu, "Run away, don't let anyone hurt you by mistake."
As soon as Huang Daxian Gu touched the snow, she ran away. She was so scared that she kept saying in her heart, "How scary! He is not a human. I am scared to death."
If Zheng Wenjie hadn't had such exaggerated strength and speed, he would have been no different from an ordinary person. But suddenly he became like his natural enemy. If he collided with Zheng Wenjie, his own strength would be reduced by 10% or 20%.
That is not coercion, it is simply the suppression of lower blood by higher blood. Unlike the human race, the most intelligent creatures in the world, who feel little suppression of their racial blood, the demon race has always been pursuing the evolution of their blood. Reversion to the ancestors is what most of the demon race dream of. Only the demon race understands the pain of an ordinary demon who has practiced for five hundred years being hit on the head by a higher blood race who has practiced for a hundred years.
The surrounding space shook for a while, Bai Du was awakened by the sudden movement, stood up, muttered how the earth dragon turned over, and hurriedly drilled out through the exit. But suddenly he felt a panic, Bai Du himself didn't know what to think, turned his head to look at the coffin, ran back and opened his mouth, swallowed the coffin with the mustard seed technique, and then felt satisfied, feeling that the tomb space was no longer shaking, but still walked out of the tomb. He must have been scared by the ancestors yesterday. Today, he didn't feel as comfortable as when he woke up in the coffin before, so he might as well fill his stomach.
Looking at the forest outside in the early morning from the cave, Baidu shook his head again. He thought that since the earth dragon had already turned over, he might as well lie down here and take a nap before filling his stomach, so he curled up into a ball again.
Zheng Wenjie was a little annoyed. He could no longer rely on Huang Daxian Gu. He was ready to use his fists to smash a passage or force the snake demon out. After two punches, the whole hill shook like an earthquake. Where the fist hit, only a small hole was made. Ninety-nine percent of the force was transmitted to the entire hill. Zheng Wenjie understood that the snake demon must have used magic or some formation to make the entire hill a whole.
He wanted to continue smashing, but he sensed that the snake demon was so timid that it actually started to escape. Zheng Wenjie used the magatama to transmit a message to Huang Daxiangu. Zheng Wenjie followed Baidu and came to another hill. Zheng Wenjie found a cave under a small hill not far away. It should be the exit. It was obvious that Baidu was going to come out of this cave as well.
Zheng Wenjie stood above Baidu with his arms crossed, waiting for it to come out of the cave. After a while, Huang Daxian Gu appeared in his sight. The snake was still lying in the cave. Although Huang Daxian Gu's magic power was only one tenth of what it was, she could still smell Baidu's location with her natural sense of smell. She was not afraid and rushed into the cave. She used her little claws to punch Baidu's head, which was sleeping on the snake. Baidu was hit in a daze and was knocked unconscious.
Seeing clearly that it was Huang Daxian Gu, he quickly shrank back a few times and said, "Huang Daxian Gu, what are you doing? I was sleeping soundly, why did you hit me?"
Huang Daxian was so angry that she was speechless for a while: "You haven't returned to Wuxian Cave for so many years, just to practice evil methods. How many people have you harmed? You still dare to ask me what's wrong? I tell you, come back to Wuxian Cave with me and be punished, otherwise I will peel your skin first."
Zheng Wenjie felt a little unhappy after hearing this. What did it mean to go back to Wuxian Cave to be punished? He killed someone in love, but he didn't have to pay with his life, just be punished and that was it?
