C29 The Command of the Longevity Clothing
At this moment, Mr. Lai walked up from below and took the paper talisman from my hand. He snorted and said, "Spiralling talisman, you used it perfectly. It seems that the person who cast this talisman knows you very well!"
I looked at Bao and said, "Bao, you still say that no one is here. Could it be that I put the talisman on my head?"
Bao looked at Mr. Lai and laughed, "Lai, there is always a place for you to be. You old fart, can you tell me what you are planning to do?"
The moment I heard this, I felt that Mr. Lai and Bao seemed to know each other, and they seemed to know each other very well.
Mr. Lai laughed and said, "Bao, I am getting old first. What about you? You have already become a wise old man! If you didn't have the blood to support you, I'm afraid you would have died a long time ago!"
Blood? I was immediately stunned. I thought to myself, could it be that Bao and Mr. Lai were both people who should have died a long time ago, but they used some kind of heaven-defying method to survive? Blood to support them? Could it be that they relied on sucking human hearts to survive?
If that was the case, I could understand why his leg was so thick and thin. He must be relying on sucking human blood to survive. Oh no, maybe he was sucking the blood of the living corpses. Those living corpses were sent to the mental hospital, where Wooh would dig out the hearts of the living corpses and some other things. After that, he would transport the corpses here to Bao.
Bao, on the other hand, would just feed the two Corpse Kings in the basement with the blood of the dead!
At this time, Bao looked at Mr. Lai and laughed, then said, "I don't want to waste my breath on you anymore. If you are willing to stay here, I won't chase you away, but you must promise me that you are not allowed to enter my basement."
Mr. Lai said, "Bao, you have put in so much effort to raise a pair of Corpse Kings with your own daughter and Chen's corpse. What are you doing? The Corpse King will have its own thoughts sooner or later. What if it loses control? The Corpse King is very dangerous, do you know that? Be careful of raising the corpse to cause trouble! "
"You don't have to worry about that. Lai, you should focus on your research on the Exorcist Sect. Our Corpse Cultivation Sect and the Exorcist Sect are not on the same path, but our Corpse Cultivation Sect will definitely not do anything that will bring disaster to the world." Bao snorted and said, "Chen Youling, don't you know that Fragrant Orchid Mountain is not a place you can barge into? You better not get involved in the matters there. "
I said, "Corpse Cultivation Sect, Exorcist Sect, you two, I don't understand what you are talking about! What are you talking about? "
Mr. Lai said, "When the world was in chaos, everyone in the circle of Feng Shui and the Corpse Cultivation Sect knew about the Exorcist Sect and the Exorcist Sect. However, now that the country is prosperous and the monsters are hibernating, there are fewer and fewer people who know about Feng Shui and the ghosts and gods. We have declined."
Bao said, "Lai, I advise you to go back to your Ancestral Mountain. Although the Taoist temple is not big, it will still be able to protect your little life. If you continue to walk in this world, your life might not be there any time soon."
"Don't worry about me. I want to know what the hell you are doing in the Fragrant Orchid Mountain! That ghost of Wooh is quite experienced. Since when did the Corpse Cultivation Sect and the ghost teamed up?"
"Let me tell you, because of your appearance, it has already interfered with our big business." Bao said.
"My appearance interfered with your big business?" Mr. Lai snorted, "But you have to know what I do. My profession is to catch ghosts, but I didn't touch Wooh. Do you know why? It's because I feel that this matter isn't that simple. That old man is not a vicious ghost. And what are those two longevity clothes? Bao, can you give me an explanation?"
"I'll explain to you!" After Bao finished speaking, he turned around and left. After entering the house, he closed the door and didn't come out.
Just like that, the four of us stayed here until dusk. Mr. Lai decided to take us back to the Ancestral Mountain to hide the next morning. From his anxiety, I could feel the seriousness of this matter. It was indeed a matter of life and death.
We ate dinner at Bao's place, but Bao didn't come out. I went to knock on Bao's door, but Bao didn't open it. I laid on the door and listened to the sounds inside. I actually heard Bao's painful moaning in the house.
I took two steps back and wanted to knock on the door. However, the door actually opened with a crack.
However, Bao didn't come out. I held the handle of the door and slowly pushed it open. When I looked out, I saw Bao curled up on the bed. His body was twitching non-stop, almost turning into a dried corpse.
He said in a strange voice, "Are you satisfied? Did you see my miserable state?"
After saying that, he continued to twitch and moan on the bed. I looked at him like a balloon. In the end, he almost turned into a skeleton covered in skin. However, he stopped causing trouble. He got up and pulled out a box from under the bed. When he opened it, there was ice inside. He took out a blood bag from it and then tilted his head to drink the blood.
After drinking, his body became full again like a balloon. However, his left leg was still so dry. He got off the bed and said, "Chen Youling, you see my ugly state, right?"
I said, "Bao, what's wrong with you? If it wasn't for the fact that I have experienced a lot these days, I would have been scared to death by you."
"My life is over. Like Lai, I am already a dead man. I am just hanging on with my last breath." He said, "I drank human blood, but this left leg is already dead."
I said, "But I saw your legs are as strong as a young man!"
"I don't need to hide it from you anymore. That's because I ate the heart of a living corpse." He looked at me and said.
I immediately shouted, "Bastard, did your heart also get eaten by you?"
"Chen Youling, don't think that I want to be like a murderous devil. In fact, I have never killed anyone. Your heart is already rotten. What use do I have for your heart? Xiaoqian brought you to Wooh just to save you. Now, you have messed up everything. You shouldn't have participated in this matter."
At this moment, I looked into Bao's eyes and said, "Bao, look into my eyes. I'm telling you. Do you think I'm willing to participate in this? This is a damn birthday dress that ordered me to go to that damn Fragrant Orchid Mountain Mental Hospital. Otherwise, why do you think I would go to the mental hospital after eating my fill? Do you think I have a hobby of being a guard? "
"What? It told you to go to the Fragrant Orchid Mountain?"
I knew that there must be something fishy about this birthday dress. I said, "What? What?"
Bao's eyes rolled around and said, "Nothing, nothing. Since that's the case, I know what to do next."
"What secret does this birthday dress have?"
"As long as you know that this birthday dress will only save you and not harm you, and that you and Xiaoqian must not have any conflicts, because you two climbed out of a coffin, and the birthday dresses you two wear are for men and women." Bao said, "Do you understand? You are a pair!"
I shook my head and said, "Bao, what are you and Xiaoqian doing sneakily?"
Bao muttered, "To be honest, I don't know either. I just follow orders."
"Who gave you orders?" I asked.
"From the birthday dress. The birthday dress that Xiaoqian is wearing will give us orders one after another. It is also that birthday dress that arranged for us to go to Fragrant Orchid Mountain." Bao grabbed my hand and said, "Maybe Fragrant Orchid Mountain has a huge secret."
I had to go and talk to Xiaoqian. What exactly was going on? This was an outcome that I had never expected. I really could not imagine that Xiaoqian was the same as me, only receiving orders from a birthday dress. In other words, this strange thing had only started not long ago.
"Bao, then what's going on with the young man who is with Xiaoqian?"
Bao said, "That is the Sect Master of our Corpse Cultivation Sect. Those corpses were also raised by him. However, after receiving the orders from Xiaoqian's birthday dress, he said that it was the Corpse Soul's order. The formation of the Corpse Soul is very difficult to analyze logically, but it must be something very mysterious. After these two corpses that have been underground for thousands of years have a Corpse Soul, this Corpse Soul will attach itself to the birthday dress. Then, it will attract the yellow weasel or fox to take the birthday dress from their corpses and bring it to the ground. This way, they will be free."
I said, "I finally understand how this longevity robe came about. It must have been taken from the tomb by the yellow weasel or the fox, and then it was transferred to my hands. I just don't understand how I died?"
Bao said, "Not only did you die in a strange way, even Xiaoqian's death was also unclear. Someone must have wanted to kill you and take your life. Unfortunately, these longevity robes are for both men and women. You and Xiaoqian both have one set. These two sets of longevity robes protected your souls and guided you to attach to the two corpses underground. After that, you were resurrected."
I finally understood how I came about. I summarized the sequence of events.
First, the two corpses had the Corpse Soul.
Second, the Corpse Soul attached to the longevity robes.
Third, the yellow weasel or the fox took off the clothes and brought them to the ground.
Fourth, after a series of transfers, one of the two sets of longevity robes went to Xiaoqian's hands, and the other one went to my hands.
Fifth, someone killed Xiaoqian, and then someone killed me. However, these two sets of longevity robes brought our souls to attach to the corpses in the coffin.
Sixth, Xiaoqian and I were resurrected, but she seemed to have recovered very well. I became a guy that was about to rot.
Seventh, Xiaoqian accepted the instructions of the longevity robes and took me to Fragrant Orchid Mountain for a surgery. She removed my rotten heart.
"8. After I came back, I went to the Fragrant Orchid Mountain Mental Hospital to be a guard."
"9. After failing to save my sister-in-law, I returned to Bao's place."
It seemed that things were much clearer now. In this process, I discovered the existence of the Corpse Fiend and the existence of the Ghost Kid. I also discovered a faint Evil Spirit. Could it be that the Longevity Robe wanted me to know the existence of this Evil Spirit?
"Then, where is the Evil Spirit? What form will it take to appear in front of me? Maybe the Long Life Robe wants me to know who is chasing after me!"
"But in the end, I still have a question to ask. I said, "Bao, then who was the one who stuck the Bewildering Charm on my forehead just now?"
