Netherworld Chapter 71: Saving People (2)
What is the emperor's corpse? I quietly asked the old Taoist priest.
There are many kinds of corpses, except for the five major zombies, all others can be considered a type of walking corpse. The emperor's corpse, nourished by the dragon energy of the underground imperial mausoleum, is somewhere between a living corpse and a walking corpse. Moreover, because of the dragon energy in the body, it is not afraid of the method of overcoming evil, and is very difficult to deal with.
Oh, I thought it was the emperor's body.
It is not only the emperor who can achieve this. The old Taoist priest said: As long as there is Yin Ming dragon energy to nourish the corpse, it can be called an emperor's corpse.
Over there, Gamu was still recounting the past: Later, the Wei family sent many people to capture the emperor's corpse, and I was able to find his body. But on the day I got the body back, I found that his face was black, and he had been poisoned. Only then did I know why he couldn't resist the emperor's corpse with his magic power comparable to that of the hall master, and was killed by it. All this is because we are not real members of the Wei family! The Wei family deserves to die! Those people deserve to die even more!
Gamu screamed excitedly, but his injuries became worse. Blood kept flowing out, staining his entire body and the surrounding ground red.
After much effort, I finally found the person who poisoned them. I killed seven members of his family, but was beaten by his grandfather. I barely escaped death before I could escape from the Wei family.
Even if he wasn't a member of the Wei family, there was no need to poison him to death. This person is too vicious. I was shocked when I heard this.
Because the man who died was his elder brother. The old Taoist priest's voice came: And their father was once the head of the Wei family.
If my father hadn't died unexpectedly... Hahaha, how dare they! Gamu laughed, ignoring his life-threatening injuries: If my father was still alive, my eldest brother was a rare genius in the Wei family, who would dare to touch him. For their own selfishness, they killed my eldest brother! In order to prevent our lineage from ascending the throne of the family head again, they wanted to kill us all! All this is just because my mother was born in a humble family and was not from the Tianshi lineage. False accusations, damn the Wei family!
So, I designed a plan to let the Zhong family and the walking corpse veins lure the Wei family to take the lead and release the ghost! Hahaha, it's a pity that the ghost resurrected and wanted to escape from Jiuyin Mountain, so I didn't kill them all!
Gamuruo acted like a madman, and I felt terrified listening to him.
This is the way of survival of a big family. For the sake of profit and to reach the top, any means can be used. And Gamu mentioned his mother, saying that because they were not born in the Heavenly Corpse Bloodline, the two brothers were not recognized by the Wei family.
I couldn't help but think of my grandfather. Could it be that the reason why his relationship with my father was so bad was because my father was not related to the Basuo lineage?
Think about it, my father is an ordinary person in every way. If these families with a long history really attach so much importance to blood inheritance, then my guess is not unreasonable.
So you stole the immortal fruit that belonged to the Wei family, and planned to use other people to further damage the vitality of the Wei family, said the old Taoist priest.
That's right, I want to destroy the Wei family forever and completely remove them from the Tianshi lineage! Gamu's eyes were a little distracted: I want my mother, who died of loneliness, to laugh in the underworld. I want my father to see that even if he is gone, our lineage will not tolerate bullying. I want my brother to come back to life, only he can revive our lineage, I want...
Gamu's voice became lower and lower, and the old Taoist suddenly stepped forward and walked quickly to him. While taking out a pill and putting it into his mouth, he drew an empty talisman: Five elements of the earth, spirit gathering, go!
This was the talisman that the old Taoist priest was tricked into using by several young men from the Du Sheng meridian, and which he later used to heal one of them.
At that time, the old woman with the only pulse also said that with this talisman, there was no need to worry about that person's life.
I looked at the old Taoist priest in confusion. He had previously called for killing Gamu. If it weren't for the complicated situation in Mingzhu Peak, Gamu would have been slapped into a rotten watermelon by him. Why is he saving people now? Is it because of what Gamu said just now that his animal instincts are aroused? No... Is it because of his maternal instincts? No...
I was just thinking about how to abuse the old Taoist priest, but he looked at me, as if he saw through my thoughts. I couldn't help but shudder, and quickly said in my heart: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but in fact, my father's instinct was too strong, you are my father...
After taking a pill and using the magic talisman to heal his wounds, Gamu finally recovered. He looked at the old Taoist priest and said weakly: Why did you save me?
The Corpse King has dispersed, and the matter of the Corpse Pill has come to an end. The old Taoist priest stood up and said: I killed you only because you wanted to refine the Corpse King and disregarded the lives of the people. But now it seems that it is not you who wants to refine the Corpse King.
But... the old Taoist turned and walked out: You and I will have nothing to do with each other from now on, life and death are determined by heaven.
As soon as the old Taoist priest finished speaking, he walked out of the cave.
I stood there in a daze, and suddenly understood what the old Taoist said: You have misjudged me, and I have misjudged you.
From beginning to end, the bronze-armored corpse did not appear. Gamu said that the bronze-armored corpse was actually his brother, and he took the fairy fruit to revive his elder brother. So I am sure that Gamu must have let the bronze-armored corpse take the fairy fruit away after entering the cave, because he knew that the old Taoist priest would definitely chase him and kill him.
The old Taoist priest had left, so there was no point for me to stay there. Anyway, it was just the two of them killing each other, and in the end, it had nothing to do with me.
Just as I was about to leave, Gamu suddenly called me. I looked at him and saw that he was pale and a little unnatural: Tell that old guy to apologize for me. Also, those two people are imprisoned in the old house of the Wei family.
I hummed and said, "Since he didn't kill you, he must have his reasons. You should take good care of your wounds, but... don't do this kind of thing in the future, it's very hurtful."
Gamu gave a bitter smile, sighed and said nothing.
After leaving the cave, I saw the Taoist priest standing at the entrance. I walked up to him and said, "The man is locked up in the Wei family's house. But, are you really not going to kill him?"
The old Taoist nodded and said: He only cheated me twice, it's not a big deal. Oh... let's go.
The old Taoist sighed and took me one step forward. We walked and stopped for a long time before arriving at the Wei family's house.
Seeing that magnificent building again still shocked me. This is a beautiful place with clear water and mountains, but they cleared such a large forest to build a house.
Unfortunately, after the battle at Mount Everest, the Wei family may never be able to regain their former glory. But if they can grab the last immortal fruit, they may still have a chance to turn things around.
The gate of the Wei family mansion, which used to be solemn and guarded by many people, is now so dark that not even a bird can be seen.
Everyone rushed to Mount Everest to fight for the rare treasures of heaven and earth. Now it was a dead place, so quiet that it made people feel strange.
Although there is no one guarding it, the Wei family is based on bronze-armored corpses, and there are many places where new corpses are hidden without anyone to control them. You stay beside me and don't go in recklessly. The old Taoist priest warned.
I said "oh" and asked him: Do you want me to use the Jade of the Underworld to help you find where they are hidden?
No need. The old Taoist shook his head and walked forward, his expression very relaxed: It’s just a small house, I want to find two people, even if they are hidden deep underground, they can’t be stopped.
The old Taoist priest always spoke sharply and domineeringly. I chuckled and followed him into the residential area.
The Wei family’s house is very large and covers a vast area. The old Taoist priest took me as if we were walking into a maze.
Last time, someone came to greet us before we even entered the door. But this time, there was no one. We walked along the various paths, and the old Taoist priest was like an old horse who knew the way, turning left and right without hesitation.
Soon, he stopped in front of a big house.
This house is only one floor and looks ordinary among many houses. I originally thought that the Wei family would hide the little beauty and her mother in the main building.
The old Taoist priest slapped the door with his palm. With a crisp sound, the solid wooden door, which was three meters high and nearly two meters wide, broke its hinges and fell to the ground with a loud bang.
The old Taoist priest stepped on the door and walked in, calm and composed, as if he was not worried at all that the other party would kill the two women at this time.
This large house is 200 square meters in size and looks very much like a reception area, with classical tea tables and chairs, and even snake head oil lamps inlaid on the walls.
The old Taoist priest walked forward a few steps and stopped. After a while, he started walking again, but stopped again after a few steps. This time, he drew an empty talisman and slapped it on his leg, shouting softly: Earth Five Elements, borrow the power of the mountain, shock!
As he said this, he stomped his foot, and the whole room shook twice as if it was stepped on by a giant. Before I could be surprised, I suddenly felt empty under my feet, my eyes went dark, and I fell into a basement.
It’s a bit inappropriate to call it a basement because it’s so big.
There were dim , but they couldn't illuminate all the places. A rough estimate showed that this place covered at least tens of thousands of square meters. This was a secret room dug under the Wei family's house. Fortunately, the landing place was not high, otherwise, I would have been broken into eight pieces.
The old Taoist priest's kick directly chopped off the half-meter thick stone slab, and a pile of rubble was on the ground. I was still shocked by the free fall, and the old Taoist priest didn't explain to me, but just walked forward.
I quickly chased after him and asked him: Where is this place?
The Wei family's corpse-keeping ground, the old Taoist priest replied.
