Chapter 81: Gold Man, Silver Man, and Corpse Man
It was already very strange to send the bride off at this time.
These people's reactions are even more incomprehensible.
How could a wedding procession just abandon the bride alone and run away?
Just looking at the way these people left, it didn't look like they were seeing off a bride, but rather like they were running for their lives.
It seems like there is something extremely terrifying going on.
Not long after these villagers left, a strange wind suddenly blew up out of nowhere.
Suddenly, a thick fog filled the air all around.
The already dark night became even more blurry.
Ahead, in the blurry darkness, two rays of light vaguely appeared.
One gold and one silver.
From far to near, it seemed to be approaching the lonely sedan chair at the entrance of the village.
There was a faint sound of strange music.
It's sharp and harsh, but it sounds very festive.
But it also makes people feel cold in their hearts and chills in their backs.
A strange wind blew by, slightly lifting the curtain of the sedan chair.
Revealing the bride in a red wedding dress.
Under the red veil is a beautiful but pale face.
With tears of fear.
“Woo woo…”
“Ya yaya…”
The weird music gradually became clearer and clearer.
The two balls of gold and silver light gradually revealed their true appearance.
There were actually two teams, one gold and one silver.
One team was dressed in golden clothes, and even their heads, faces, and limbs were all shining with golden light, as if they were made of gold.
One team was wearing silver clothes, and their heads, faces, and limbs were also shining silver.
The golden and silver men held suona, sheng, drum, gongs and cymbals and other musical instruments, playing them along the way while carrying boxes tied with bright red silk.
What is most frightening is the horses ridden by these golden and silver men.
It was clearly a paper horse.
The paper horses moved with strange and stiff steps, and the gold and silver teams slowly approached the sedan chair and surrounded it.
The gold and silver teams each sent out four people to lift the bridal sedan.
The golden man who was originally playing the festive and strange music suddenly stopped and the music suddenly changed.
It became miserable and extremely sad.
The bride in the sedan could no longer hold back her horrible sobbing.
The gold and silver men seemed to hear nothing.
Amidst waves of mournful music, the gold and silver teams split into two parts.
A group of people carried the sedan chair away.
The other group rode paper horses and slowly walked into the village.
As a team of golden and silver men and horses gradually sank into the dark fog, another team slowly walked into the village, and the strange funeral music gradually became inaudible.
The night returned to silence.
Suddenly, cheers broke out in the village.
On the open space in the village, piles of gold and silver appeared without anyone noticing, shining brightly and dazzlingly.
The surrounding villagers rushed forward...
…
The Jade Rabbit falls in the west, and the Golden Crow rises in the east.
In the Sujing Division, a ray of golden sunlight passed through the window of Jiang Zhou's room and shone onto the ghost corpse.
Suddenly, the corpse's throat began to vibrate, as if something was flowing through it.
The ugly and pale old woman's skin was like that of a dove, and her tightly closed eyes suddenly opened.
The gray and turbid pupils trembled slightly.
Jiang Zhou looked delighted.
He immediately recited the incantation, made finger gestures, and pointed at the body-refining ghost.
Then he saw his entire body stand up straight from the ground, turn around stiffly, and look at Jiang Zhou blankly.
Done!
However, the soul transfer has just begun. If you want to control this refined corpse, you must be able to pass the spell.
If you want to increase its intelligence and make it move freely, you may have to place it in a dark and evil place and use the corpse-driving talisman to raise it for a period of time.
This corpse-driving talisman may seem inconspicuous, but it also possesses the authentic characteristics of Taoism.
Follow the steps and the momentum will last for a long time.
After a period of time, this refined corpse can be transformed into an iron corpse.
Like the legendary zombies, they are extremely powerful and invulnerable to swords and guns.
Further up, there are bronze corpses and gold corpses.
When one reaches the golden corpse level, he can fly into the sky and hide underground, and is immortal.
Theoretically speaking, as long as there is enough time and a golden corpse is raised, even if one encounters a top-three rank expert, one would not be afraid.
A golden corpse can easily allow him to walk sideways.
But Jiang Zhou didn't have this idea.
Raising and refining corpses is time-consuming and laborious.
It is not easy to raise iron corpses and bronze corpses .
It would take an unknown amount of time to raise a golden corpse.
It would be fine if he had no hope, hiding and raising corpses is also a way to survive.
But he has the Atlas of Ghosts and Gods. Isn't it putting the cart before the horse to spend his time and energy on raising corpses?
This thing, as long as it is useful.
As for what it will become in the future, it all depends on fate.
Jiang Zhou pinched his fingers and said, "Tell me, where are those children you killed?"
The corpse turned its neck stiffly, slowly turned around, and took stiff steps.
It looks stiff, but it is very fast.
It only took three or two steps to get to the door.
Jiang Zhou quickly chanted a spell to make it stop.
This is Sujingsi. If a corpse runs around here, it would be strange if it is not treated as an invading evil creature and killed.
This thing has just started to gain intelligence, no more than a child of several years old, and can only be controlled with spells.
As for speaking, that is even more impossible.
It is already difficult to make a dead body move, and it is impossible to make it speak human language for the time being .
Now, only the remnants of its soul are left scattered in the body, forming a kind of physical instinct.
These memories must be extremely fragmented, and it is hard to say what can be left.
But the places they frequently visit are like the body's instinct, and they are likely to remember them.
The result did not disappoint him.
Jiang Zhou first went to find Jin Jiu next door and asked him to inform You Xu that the corpses had been refined and he was going to track the whereabouts of those children.
When You Xu received the report, he showed some surprise and hesitation. He didn't expect Jiang Zhou really had this ability.
In the end, he personally selected a team of demon-patrol guards and knife-bearers to follow Jiang Zhou.
There might be some taboos involved behind this case, and he was really afraid that Jiang Zhou might cause some trouble by himself.
It was almost dark when the group followed a refined corpse out of Sujingsi.
The corpse refiner indeed headed straight out of the city.
Surrounded by a group of demon patrol guards and knife-wielding men, he was not afraid to show off in public.
Even if someone noticed something was wrong, they would just think that the Su Jingsi was escorting a demon.
Although it is not commonplace, it will not scare people.
All the way out of the city.
The direction that the corpse was heading was actually towards Beidu Bridge.
It seems to be expected.
However, after crossing the Beidu Bridge, Jiang Zhou and You Xu both thought that it was heading towards the Youmen Valley.
But it suddenly turned to the west, exactly opposite to the Pylori Valley.
"That's... Xiaoxi Village?"
Jin Jiu, who was still injured, followed with his injuries.
Following the corpse refiner, we walked along sparsely populated paths and mountain roads.
After walking about thirty or forty miles west from Beidu Bridge, I saw a village in the distance.
You Xu took a closer look and said, "Xiaoxi Village? Where is it?"
Not everyone is as familiar with the cities and countryside of Wujun as Jin Jiu.
Jin Jiu quickly said, "It's a very ordinary village. Most of the villagers are hunters and not very wealthy."
"However, there is a wealthy family in the village, and they are somewhat famous in Wu County."
"That wealthy family was originally just an ordinary merchant. He made a small fortune by selling the furs and other items he collected from the villagers in the county town."
"but……"
