Chapter 86 "The Murder Weapon"
Actually, I didn't tell the truth. The mummy was basically dead, because it had lost all its corpse qi, and it was just an ordinary dead body. But there were certain variables. It still had a chance to revive when it encountered the stimulation of evil spirit. But the old Zongzi was different. I didn't want to get rid of it completely from the beginning, not to mention that I ran out of ammunition and food yesterday, so it was not that easy to kill it. I kept it because I wanted to use it as bait to lure the blue-eyed human fox.
Although the Yin veins between them are broken, they have been sleeping on the same ground vein for a long time, which makes them like each other. As long as they meet, they will "rekindle their old feelings"! Last night, when the blue-eyed fox came to the cellar, he walked outside the wooden box and turned back. I guess he was afraid of the mummy inside, so he didn't dare to get close. Tonight is different. The old zongzi was carried out, and the blue-eyed fox was waiting for this moment. If he wakes up the old zongzi, the two of them can work together to harm people.
Since the old Zongzi was able to wake up despite being suppressed by the mason's cone, the red rope and the corpse-suppressing talisman, it means that it was definitely done by the blue-eyed fox!
It might be hiding nearby right now, or it might be mixed in with the crowd!
I quickly stuck my head out and searched the crowd. As expected, the dead woman was standing against the wall behind the crowd. She was wearing clothes and had long hair. She looked very charming. Everyone was so scared of the zombies in the yard that they completely ignored the strange woman standing behind them.
Lin Yuxi followed my gaze and looked in that direction. She had seen this woman's face yesterday, so even though she didn't show her green eyes, she recognized her at once. She was so scared that she covered her mouth and almost screamed.
Xiao Pang was still mumbling, "What are you looking at?" He looked over there for a long time but couldn't figure out what was going on . I whispered to them, "We have smeared moxa oil on our heads, so as long as we don't make any noise, the foxes won't be able to see us. From now on, quickly set your cell phone to vibrate or turn it off, and don't talk anymore."
They both took out their cell phones, which would make sounds even if they were turned off, so they both switched to silent mode. I looked at the woman and said, "It will definitely not let us go, and it is standing in the crowd to cause trouble, just to lure us out. No matter what happens, you hide here and don't move or make any noise." The two nodded. In fact, I didn't need to tell them that they were very well behaved.
I was particularly worried about the current situation. According to Bian Hongming's ability, he couldn't deal with the old zongzi, and if I didn't lead the blue-eyed fox away quickly, I was afraid it would hurt the villagers. There were too many people here. I wanted to lead the fox away, but I was afraid that the old zongzi would hurt people. When I was in a dilemma, I heard a person's scream coming from the old house.
"Director Lu, Director Zhang, please get out of here! The old man is going crazy and he's going to eat people!"
Two people immediately ran out of the old house, one was Mr. Lu Jingyue. The other was a fat middle-aged man with a corrupt belly, probably Director Zhang. There are so many directors and bureau chiefs now. It is said that a unit has six directors and eight directors, but only three soldiers!
Director Zhang turned around and shouted, "Don't be superstitious. This could just be a temporary revelation. How could it eat people? Bian Hongming, don't confuse the people. Find a way to get rid of the body!"
The three of us couldn't help but laugh at each other when we heard this. This director is so cute. He is actually an atheist and doesn't believe in zombies. But the old man in the courtyard will really eat you.
Bian Hongming had no ability to knock down the old Zongzi. As soon as Director Zhang finished speaking, the guy ran out screaming, covered in mud and grass on his head. It was hard to see what he looked like. The old Zongzi followed behind him, causing a scream. The alley was like a chicken coop, and everyone ran away. Only the blue-eyed fox, the dead woman, still stood there, but her left eye had begun to faintly flash green light.
My heart skipped a beat. I was afraid that the blue-eyed fox would take advantage of the chaos to attack me, so I didn't care about anything else and drew out the Qiankun Sword and rushed out from behind the corner of the room.
Lu Jingyue was running over here with Director Zhang. When he saw me, he grabbed my hand and shouted, "Master Ding, my grandfather is dead. Please help me..."
I said with a sullen face, "Didn't you find Master Bian? I'm afraid it would be inappropriate for me to interfere."
"He, he, he can't do it, so you should do it. The reward will be the 150,000 agreed upon before, not a penny less." Lu Jingyue was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, grabbing my hand and shaking it.
I shook my head: "Under the current situation, 150,000 is not enough."
"Then name your price..." He said as he turned around and saw Bian Hongming running towards the opposite alley, while Lao Zongzi jumped after him, his face turning pale with fright.
"At least three hundred thousand!"
"Okay, three hundred thousand is three hundred thousand." Lu Jingyue said and left me and ran forward.
When Director Zhang heard that I wanted so much money, he didn't even run away and said to me: "Young man, this is extortion. You guys are playing tricks, cheating, deceiving, ..."
The old Zongzi came very fast, jumping in front of me, but its target was its own offspring, it didn't even bother with the birds, and jumped past us. I made a spell with my left hand, raised the Qiankun Sword with my right hand and stabbed its chest, causing it to hold its breath temporarily and freeze.
It was cool to use the Qiankun Sword. If I had used other copper coin swords, I would have been smashed to pieces by the old Zongzi's powerful momentum. I looked up at its forehead and saw that the talisman was gone, and the red rope was gone. I looked sideways behind it and didn't see the mason's cone. I guessed that it was either pulled out by Bian Hongming or pushed out by the corpse qi.
Director Zhang continued to grumble: "…It would be fine if he could just swindle 3,000 or 5,000 yuan, but he actually blackmailed Director Lu for 300,000 yuan. This is too shady. Aren't you afraid of being sued in court…"
I didn't have time to pay attention to him. I quickly took out a corpse-suppressing talisman and stuck it on the old Zongzi's forehead. Then I raised the Qiankun sword and stabbed it in the eyeball. From here, it penetrated the brain, which was basically a death sentence. But the dead woman, the blue-eyed fox, didn't give me this opportunity. I don't know when she stood aside quietly and pulled the old Zongzi away, so my sword stabbed into nothingness.
Just now I was hiding in the dark, it couldn't see me, but now I'm under the light, it can see everything clearly. If I hadn't protected Lao Zongzi just now, I don't know how many times I would have killed me. I was immediately scared and broke out in a cold sweat. I gritted my teeth and swung my sword at the blue-eyed fox. The Qiankun Sword really has the power to subdue demons and monsters. How dare this woman confront me head-on? She dodged and hid aside.
Unexpectedly, Chief Zhang grabbed me and said, "Hey, you so-and-so, why did you just deal with the corpse? Why did you hit a little girl? I have to tell you, I am from the police station..."
Damn it, I don't have time to listen to your nonsense, so I swung my arm and threw him to the left wall. With my left hand, I made a thunder seal, chanted a silent spell to exorcise evil spirits, and stabbed the blue-eyed fox between his eyebrows with the Qiankun sword in my right hand.
Seeing that Director Zhang liked to meddle in other people’s business, the woman dodged the stab and ran behind him, holding her head and shouting, “Big brother, save me! This lunatic wants to kill me. I’m so scared!”
"Don't be afraid! I'm the deputy chief of the police station. Can't I control this lunatic?" Chief Zhang patted his chest, then glared at me and shouted, "You bastard, put down the weapon quickly and come back to the police station with me to confess your crime!"
I almost fainted. What's that look in your eyes? Can a copper coin sword be called a murder weapon? Are you blinded by the pair of "murder weapons" behind you?
