Volume 1 Uncle Nine's World Chapter 10: Zombies in Yizhuang
Simu nodded upon hearing that, holding the peach wood sword in his hand. To be honest, Simu felt a little regretful now. If he had known that this trip would be so exciting, he would have brought his big sword with him.
"Jia Le, be careful, let's go in and take a look."
Jiale did not dare to be careless. He held the talisman in his hand and followed Simu closely.
boom!
The door of the charity cemetery was kicked open by Simu, but the scene that came into their eyes shocked them.
In ancient times, there were groups of demons dancing wildly, and now there are groups of corpses dancing wildly.
Inside the charity cemetery, there were two people, one big and one small, being chased by dozens of zombies. The big one was trying desperately to subdue the zombies, while the small one was helping. However, it seemed that the small one was not very smart and was making things worse.
However, these dozens of zombies did not look very powerful. Upon closer inspection, their momentum seemed not even as strong as that of the little ghosts. They were only slightly stronger than the corpses they sent this time.
Simu seemed relieved when he saw this and took out a stack of corpse-suppressing talismans from his pocket and handed them to Jiale.
"Hurry, help!"
Jiale immediately understood. Seeing Simu rushing forward with a peach wood sword in hand, Jiale also took a step forward to meet the zombies.
Seeing two more strangers rushing over, the zombies were also very excited. It was instinctive for zombies to absorb essence and blood, and human essence and blood were the best. If there were enough humans, it would not be impossible to create a zombie king.
But that being said, Xiangzhou is the territory of Maoshan, and thinking of the appearance of the Corpse King is wishful thinking.
Bang!
Jiale used his fists and feet to fight the zombies. After getting started, he became more certain in his heart. Sure enough, his feeling was right. These zombies did not seem to be that powerful. Even without the corpse-suppressing talisman, these zombies would not be able to do anything to him.
However, without the talisman, it is not easy to calm down these zombies.
Stepping on shooting stars, talismans were pasted on the foreheads of zombies, and the charity cemetery, which had been noisy and chaotic, finally became quiet.
The owner of the charity cemetery had noticed Simu and Jiale a long time ago, but because of the urgency of the matter just now, he had no time to greet them. Now that the situation was gradually under control, the owner of the charity cemetery finally breathed a sigh of relief and had time to speak.
"Brother Simu, thank you so much!"
Jiale subdued the last zombie and looked at this uncle-master, who also seemed to be over sixty years old and much older than Simu, but seemed to be in high spirits elongated horse face made him look a little serious. Now that he saw Simu, he forced a smile, which made his already weathered face even more eerie.
He is quite tall. To be honest, if Simu hadn't said that he was also a disciple of Maoshan, Jiale would rather believe that he was a martial artist.
As for the younger one next to him, who was about fourteen or fifteen years old, there was no trace of essence in his body. He should have not yet started formally practicing. He looked handsome, like a little boy. He was obviously frightened by the situation just now, and still looked shocked.
There is no order of precedence in learning; the wisest can be the teacher.
Jiale also noticed that the two uncles he met on the road were older than Simu, but they both called Simu "senior brother". Thinking of what Simu had said before about the rules of the cultivation world, he immediately understood that the cultivation world does not rank people by age, but by strength.
Of course, this is the rule when traveling outside. In Maoshan, the generation name is still important. However, Maoshan has a division into true disciples, inner disciples and outer disciples.
Outer disciples usually call inner disciples "senior brothers". People like Shi Jian, Jiu Shu and Simu are inner disciples. In fact, it all depends on their cultivation. In Maoshan, those who reach the Qi Refining Realm can become inner disciples, and those who reach the Refining Essence into Qi Realm can only be outer disciples.
Looking at the uncle in front of him, Jia Le had an idea in his mind. He estimated that this uncle and the previous uncle Jing Xiu should both be outer disciples of Maoshan.
"Haha, Junior Brother Zhang, it's been a while since we last met. What's the matter with you?"
It turns out that this uncle’s surname is Zhang.
After hearing what Simu said, Uncle Zhang also gave a bitter smile, "It's hard to explain in a few words, Senior Brother Simu, please take a rest for a while. I will come to you after I clean up the charity cemetery."
The four of them didn't bother to exchange glances for a moment. They just nodded and motioned for Jiale to follow them inside.
The size of this charity cemetery is even bigger than the one owned by Uncle Jingxiu, and the decoration is similar. Simu seems to be very familiar with this place and he took Jiale directly to a room inside. This room is much tidier and has not been messed up by the fight just now.
Simu poured himself some tea and started drinking it.
"This Junior Brother Zhang is called Zhang Tong. He is in a similar situation to Junior Brother Jing Xiu. He has reached the Qi Transformation Realm. However, in our Maoshan, if you don't enter the inner sect, you generally can't learn powerful spells. You can only learn some talismans and ordinary grappling skills. When dealing with demons, ghosts, and zombies, sometimes you can't defeat them even if they are of the same level. Just like those zombies just now, each of them is about the same as you, or even not as powerful as you.
But when the number increases, even Junior Brother Zhang is overwhelmed. It is not easy to make a living down the mountain."
Simu's sigh made Jiale realize a lot. No wonder there were so many disciples in Maoshan, but not many of them became famous. The true disciples were the most powerful, but they stayed in the mountains. The inner disciples did learn some magical powers, like Simu, but there were not many. The most were the outer disciples. However, it seemed impossible to let them support the reputation of Maoshan.
He refilled Simu's tea, "Master, what happened to the zombie ?"
Simu saw that Zhang Tong had not come back yet, so he simply continued, "Jia Le, today I will talk to you about zombies. People are divided into good people and bad people, and corpses are divided into dead bodies and zombies. The dead bodies are the ones we are chasing this time, and zombies are like the ones just now. The difference is that they are in one breath.
Bad guys have less righteousness than good guys, while zombies have more vitality than dead bodies.
This is what people call " not breathing hard". Some people, after they die, there are some things they are unwilling to accept and cannot let go of, but they can do nothing about it. The so-called death with eyes open and accumulated resentment is just like this. They are unwilling to swallow this last breath, and the resentment gathers in the throat, which can absorb the moon's yin energy. Such corpses are prone to become stiff after death and turn into zombies.
Some zombies may also transform into corpses due to being infected by corpse poison or changes in the feng shui properties of the cemetery.
However, the zombies that have just formed are generally at the walking corpse level, just like the ones we saw just now, which are at the initial stage of refining essence. Even some martial artists can take them down, which means their physical bodies are just a little stronger than when they were alive.
However, if these zombies suck the blood, they will be terrifying. Among them, the blood of humans is the most terrifying, especially the blood of relatives. After the zombies are released, if they suck the blood of their loved ones, they may be directly promoted to green zombies or even hairy zombies. Green zombies are okay, they can only come out at night to harm people, and they are afraid of the sunlight. Hairy zombies are terrible, not only they have iron skin and bones, strong attack power, and agile movements, they are not even afraid of the sunlight.
The walking dead, we also call it white zombies.
White zombies, green zombies, hairy zombies, flying zombies, and zombie kings correspond exactly to the stage of refining essence to refining spirit for our cultivators.
..."
Following Simu's explanation, Jiale finally understood what zombies were.
Simu also told Jiale about the characteristics of these zombies. It is very likely that they will encounter these zombies while driving the corpses, so they need to be more careful.
The white zombies are equivalent to the realm of refining essence. They move slowly, just like the ones just now. They are very easy to deal with. They are afraid of sunlight, fire, water, chickens, dogs, and even people.
Green zombies are equivalent to the Qi transformation stage. The corpse gas emitted by the corpse and the body of the zombie are green. Compared with white zombies, they jump very fast and are not afraid of people or livestock, but only afraid of sunlight.
Hairy zombies are equivalent to the Qi Refining Realm. Hair grows on their bodies. They are famous for their iron skin and bones. The higher their cultivation level, the stronger their bodies are. They are agile, jumping from roofs to trees, and leaping like flying. They are no longer afraid of ordinary fire, and they are not even afraid of sunlight.
Flying zombies are equivalent to the Spirit Transformation Realm. They are thousand-year-old zombies that have achieved successful cultivation. Some flying zombies are even good at spells and have intact bodies. Because this kind of zombie can fly, and its speed is much faster than that of cultivators of the same level, it is called flying zombie.
The last one is the Zombie King, which is even more terrifying. It is equivalent to the spirit refining realm among cultivators. Only the legendary Taoist master can deal with it.
It is very difficult to become a Corpse King. According to Simu, there has been no news of a Corpse King being formed in the cultivation world today . Of course, if there really is a Corpse King, according to Simu, they would have to stay away from it as soon as possible. That is not something they dare to think about.
After listening, Jiale summarized it into one sentence: when you encounter zombies, you must nip them in the bud.
"Brother Simu, sorry for the long wait."
