Volume 1: Wrath of the West Chapter 85: The Changing Pavilion
…
Boom.
Thunder roared.
Look at the sky.
"Commander Luo, the terrain in western Hunan is complex and there are frequent sudden rains. If you don't want to get soaked here, we can only make do with the hotel."
"Damn it, this evil God is against us, Lao Luo."
Obviously agreed.
Chen Yulou turned his head.
"Brother Lin, please lead the way."
Lin Feijian nodded and walked towards the west.
Everyone followed.
Xu Rui looked thoughtful.
Judging from the changes in the Miao village, there must have been changes in the Zanguan as well.
But the arrow has and we have no choice but to go.
Be secretly vigilant.
If you can’t beat them, just run away.
After passing through mountains and forests, we soon came to a steep hillside with a valley below.
"Right there."
Look in the direction of the finger.
In the huge valley, a building similar to a courtyard house appeared in sight.
"The gate to heaven is blocked, the door to the ground is trapped, and the Tai Sui on both sides are blocking the door. This is truly a place where the four yins are blocked. No wonder such a hall was built here." Chen Yulou said.
Xu Rui doesn't understand Feng Shui and can't see through the ins and outs of this.
However, this hall is surrounded by mountains, with no water and no wind, so it is indeed not a good place.
"Let's go and take a look."
Coming down the hillside, the valley was covered with weeds and lined with wild rocks. The once faint sounds of insects and roars of animals had disappeared, and the silence was so frightening that it made one feel uneasy.
In the moonlight, the Zanguan in the distance looked like a giant beast, lying quietly on the ground. Countless ghosts seemed to be hiding in the huge shadow, coveting the passers-by coming from afar.
"Young Master, do you think there are no zombies in this museum?" Luo Laowai's voice trembled a little.
"have no idea."
"have no idea?"
Luo Laowai screamed .
Chen Yulou tilted his head, half-closed his eyes, and showed a look of disgust.
"Master Luo, I'm not a god. How can I know if there are zombies if I don't go in and take a look?"
"makes sense."
"Commander Luo, please relax. With our skills, we brothers can chop up zombies even if there are zombies inside." Liu Changfan patted the steel knife on his waist.
"Haha, that's true. We are now strong and powerful."
Although he said this, the fear on his face did not diminish at all.
Xu Rui looked at the pavilion getting closer and closer, and keenly sensed a sense of being watched, and the dark gaze was filled with malice.
"As expected, this place is not simple either."
While they were secretly on guard, everyone had already arrived at the door.
The red paint was mottled, revealing the dark wood.
The window frame was broken and the wind blew in, making a rustling sound, which seemed desolate and mournful.
There was a thick layer of dead branches and leaves mixed with dust on the steps, and it was obvious that no one had been here for a long time.
Above the door, on the black plaque, the two words "Zan Guan" look like the underworld under the dim moonlight.
Everyone looked around for a moment.
Chen Yulou was the first to step onto the stairs.
Everyone followed closely behind.
Open the door.
Squeak.
The hoarse friction sound was particularly clear in the darkness and the empty and silent room.
Look around.
In a room that is more than thirty meters long and more than ten meters wide, coffins are neatly arranged, and there are no less than sixty of them.
call.
A gust of wind blew past, and my back felt chilly. Combined with the environment here, it made me break out in a cold sweat.
"Young...Young man, why don't we go somewhere else? This place is too damn creepy."
Mr. Luo's mouth was a little crooked.
"Master Luo is in charge of thousands of troops and has killed countless people. Why is he afraid of these?"
"My dear boss, if you want to talk about killing people, I, Lao Luo, will never hesitate, but ghosts are invisible and intangible, so there is nothing we can do. Aren't we just afraid?"
"Don't worry, Coach Luo. We have brothers here. No matter if they are ghosts or monsters, we will deal with them all."
After saying this, he strode in.
Peaceful and quiet.
The old cat biting its ears that was supposed to appear in the plot was nowhere to be seen.
Coming out of the morgue is the central courtyard.
There are side rooms on both sides, and the main hall is directly opposite.
The stone-paved courtyard was overgrown with weeds, but there was nothing strange about it.
The group looked at the rooms on the left and right.
There was a storage room filled with broken tables and rotten benches.
The other room has a stove and is a kitchen.
However, as no one had lived there for a long time, the food in the jar had gone moldy.
Come to the main room.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a black leather coffin lying upright there.
"Damn it, it's just a broken coffin. Why put it here where we sleep instead of in the morgue? It ruins our mood." The frightened Luo Laowai cursed angrily.
"This is a museum, isn't it normal to put a coffin here?"
After saying this, Chen Yulou looked around.
"It just so happens that there is a bed here. Let's just stay here tonight and make plans tomorrow."
"By the way, check if there are any candles or oil lamps around and light them up."
The words haven't been finished yet .
Boom.
Lin Feijian stepped forward and knocked the coffin lid down.
Luo Laowai was so frightened that he almost jumped up. Just as he was about to get angry, he saw everyone gathering over and he hurried over as well.
"My uncle's grandma, what the hell is this?"
"Hey, Commander Luo, can we not be so startled?" Chen Yulou said helplessly.
"Brother, you can't blame me for this. Look, there's a rat demon lying in the coffin."
"She just looks strange. She is not a monster, but a human."
Chen Yulou could still distinguish between monsters and humans.
Looking at the corpse lying in the coffin, with a head like a mouse, a short stature, and wearing a gray-brown homespun dress, Xu Rui and others frowned.
He knew that there was an aunt named Haozi in the house.
But the fact that the person who was supposed to be standing stiff was now lying in the coffin was somewhat beyond his expectations.
"Close the coffin and carry it to the side room. Let her rest in peace tomorrow. This will be our way of repaying her for letting us stay with us," said Chen Yulou.
"Young Master, this person is dead but not decayed. Is he a zombie?" Zhang Wei asked.
"Zombies need the nourishment of the earth's energy to be formed. She was lying in a coffin on a bench, isolating herself from the earth's energy, so she couldn't be a zombie. However, I heard that the corpse-carrying people in Xiangxi have a secret medicine called 'Dead Wood Powder', which can prevent the dying from decaying if taken by the dying."
"The skin of this woman's body is purple, which is exactly the sign of taking 'Dead Wood Powder' as recorded in the book."
"I see. Young Master is very knowledgeable and well-informed. I admire you."
Chen Yulou waved his hand.
"Carry her away."
Zhang Wei nodded, called Liu Changfan and Zhou Hongwei, closed the coffin lid, and carried it to the next room.
"Today we will take turns to keep watch, two people in a group, so we can take care of each other." Chen Yulou said.
Naturally, no one objected.
"I'm in a group with Brother Lin."
Chen Yulou smiled.
Xu Rui understood what was going on and was most likely trying to take the opportunity to win over the other party.
"The three of us have always been together, so let's be a group." Zhang Wei said directly.
"In that case, Coach Luo, we can only be one group." Xu Rui said with a smile.
"Haha, Brother Xu is amazing. I feel relieved to have you with me, Lao Luo."
"Since everyone has no objection, let's do it this way. Brother Lin and I will go first, Zhang Wei and you will go second, and Brother Luo and Brother Xu will go third."
No one had any objections, as they were all tired after running around all day.
Next, those who need to keep watch will keep watch, and those who need to rest will rest.
The room soon became quiet.
