Hualala!
The treetops surged, countless black shadows leaped and hopped above, and from time to time, they let out a few creepy roars.
My master turned a blind eye to this, as if the zombie hovering above his head was not a murderous and marrow-sucking zombie, but a ball of air. He walked towards the mountain leisurely, his long gown rustling, one man and one sword, like a lonely swordsman.
The crowd was originally unsure, but seeing him like this, they were greatly encouraged and followed him.
As soon as we moved, the zombies on the tree immediately became agitated and moved with us.
I don't know when Old Man Li came to my side. His thick cotton coat made him look extremely bloated. His hands were inserted into his sleeves, and he looked like an old farmer. His head was tilted up, and his white eyes were rolling. I have always been curious about this. Can you really see without pupils in your eyes? But out of respect for him, I never had the nerve to ask.
Suddenly, he said casually: "It's good to see blood. How can a ceremonial officer not see blood? Ask your elders how many people have they killed? Oh, yes, they should not be too embarrassed to record these things."
My heart twitched, and the discomfort that was originally thrown behind my mind for survival was awakened again. I subconsciously glanced at Old Man Li, but I saw that he didn't look at me at all, and kept watching the movement in the tree canopy. As for whether his words were encouragement or sarcasm, I couldn't hear it, and I didn't want to listen. I took two steps at a time and followed Brother Yaozi in front.
I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional. Soon, Old Man Li caught up again and kept walking side by side with me. This time he no longer looked up, and asked me with a crooked face: "Do you know how to kill zombies?"
I nodded.
There are three fatal points on a zombie. Needless to say, the first one is the head. Anything that cuts off the head will be destroyed. The others are the heart and lower abdomen. Because this creature is half dead and half alive, it has both living and dead air. The heart has a breath of living air, and the lower abdomen is filled with dead air. Once it is exposed, it can be killed.
"It's good to know, don't panic when the time comes."
Old man Li nodded, and then said: "People who practice seriously have righteousness and spiritual energy, which the corpses and demons don't like. When we gather together, these zombies will instinctively stay away from us, waiting for us to show our flaws. However, this kind of waiting has a limit after all, and they will come down sooner or later..."
This old man talked in a random way, and I couldn't keep up with his thoughts. I just asked directly: "What do you want to say?"
"The way up the mountain is still a long way..."
Old man Li looked into the distance and whispered: "Zombies are not scary, but they are scary..."
I asked what he was afraid of, and old man Li shook his head and said that he just hoped he was overthinking, and said no more.
As if to fulfill his crow's mouth, a zombie finally couldn't hold back, and suddenly jumped down from the treetop, like a goshawk swooping down to hunt, and pounced on us.
Swish!
Brother Yaozi's flashlight immediately shone on the thing.
For the first time, I saw the thing clearly. Under the strong light, it was covered with white hair like steel needles, its skin was red, its hands and feet had three fingers, shaped like the claws of some birds, its nails were extremely sharp, and its fangs were a finger long and extremely sharp. When it pounced, it made a deafening roar.
"Kill!"
My master shouted softly, and the ancient sword in his hand lightly slashed, a bright sword light flashed, and then, the zombie "poofed" in mid-air and split into two pieces of corpses falling to the ground.
This scene was so amazing that it completely overturned my cognition. From beginning to end, the zombie did not touch the sword in my master's hand, and was killed in the air.
The blood mist swept in the air, reminding me that all this was not false.
This is... the power of a half-step heavenly master?
How terrifying would a real heavenly master be!
For the first time, I had an intuitive cognition, the impact was too strong.
However, this move also completely broke this brief gaze.
In a moment, black shadows jumped down from the trees, like a heavy rain, drowning us in an instant.
I had no time to pay attention to my master's god-like appearance. A gust of wind blew behind me, and I slashed back with a knife.
Puff!
A stream of extremely smelly blood splashed on me. At the same time, an arm flew high. The zombie that attacked me paused after being chopped by a knife, and then rushed towards me again viciously. Although one arm was broken, the ferocity was not reduced at all. I was already a little frightened in my heart. I roared and stabbed it directly through its chest, and the opponent stopped.
But before I could draw my knife, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my back!
I couldn't help but scream, and was about to drop the knife to dodge, when I suddenly heard a light scold, and then a heavy "bang".
Taking this opportunity, I hurriedly pulled out the Baipi Knife, turned my head and saw Wushuang. Not far away was a zombie lying on the ground, with its chest completely collapsed, struggling constantly, and some rags still remained on its sharp nails, obviously torn from my clothes.
Wushuang saw me turn around, lowered his head and smiled shyly.
I was about to speak, but saw a zombie bypassing Old Man Li and rushing up from behind him. I immediately yelled "Be careful", pushed him away, and rushed forward, slashing the zombie's neck with a knife, but the blade got stuck on the cervical vertebrae.
This zombie was also extremely ferocious. The knife was still wedged in its neck, but one of its claws was reaching for my stomach. The pain in my back told me how sharp its claws were. If I was caught, I was afraid that I would be disemboweled immediately. I didn't dare to take the risk. I kicked it away with a flying foot, took back the knife, and chopped it on the head again.
This time I put all my strength into it and cut off half of its head with one knife. It fell to the ground and didn't move at all.
But what can I do even if I did that?
I risked my life and got injured, but I only killed two!
But how many are there here?
Countless!!
The trees are still jumping down like dumplings, and from time to time a bunch of them will pop out from the dense forest around us. We are completely surrounded.
To be precise, this is not surrounded, but drowned!!
We have been completely submerged. Everywhere we look, there are these things, which are more exaggerated than the ghost soldiers passing through the border. They are overwhelming...
Wan Niang'er has already controlled Zhang Xinya's body, and she and Brother Yaozi are walking together. Lao Bai is carried by Brother Yaozi, and Shunzi follows them.
The situation is extremely dangerous. Wushuang, Old Man Li and I have to stay together so that we can take care of each other's backs.
In the blink of an eye, dozens of zombies fell at my feet.
I was covered in blood and subconsciously raised my head to look forward.
My master was still walking in the front. In the fierce battle, his hair bun on his head had been scattered, his black hair was scattered, and his robes were stained with blood. He looked like an invincible fighting immortal. Every time a sword fell, one or even several zombies would be separated from their heads. Every step he took forward was stepping on blood and bones, but his gait was extremely firm. Even if there were thousands of people, they could not stop him.
Seeing this, my originally exhausted strength suddenly surged like a spring, and I roared with the pressure in my throat. I was burning with fighting spirit, and I cut off the head of a zombie with a knife, and rushed forward quickly!
When the fight was in full swing, a hand grabbed my arm without any warning.
"Wait!!"
Old man Li shouted: "Look, something is wrong here!!"
I was completely bloodthirsty, and after his reminder, I paused, held the knife across my chest to be alert, and gasped.
However, there were only zombies in front of me, and I really didn't see anything wrong.
"Look at those vines!"
Old man Li jumped up and down anxiously: "All the vines are dead!"
Hearing this, I looked down and saw that the vines entrenched on the ground were withering at a speed visible to the naked eye...
Seeing this, I hurriedly asked: "The vines are withering, is there anything special about this?"
"Hehehe..."
Old man Li actually laughed miserably: "Corpse beings become enlightened, and there are heavenly harmony, such as Hanba. Once it appears, there will be a severe drought in the surrounding area, and the vines here are all withering. What do you think it could be?"
Wushuang said directly: "Is there Hanba?"
"Drought fart!!"
Old man Li wanted to jump up and cut him, gritting his teeth and said: "There is a Zongzi here that has achieved enlightenment like Hanba!! My hunch was right, there is... Zombie King!!"
