C13 Sanqingshan Taoist

"Ah!" Pain pain pain pain! "Where is this?" After moving her body, she woke up in pain and discovered that she had been tied up. She saw Yin Chenglan, who had fallen down from the second floor of the inn just like her, also tied up.

Big Brother Zhang, you're finally awake! "Thank you for saving me at the inn, I implicated you in your capture." After falling down from the second floor of the inn, the unconscious Zhang Tian Shi and Yin Chenglan were brought by the black-clothed men to this room and tied up.

"Miss Yin, I don't blame you for this, but what's going on now?!" "Painful! Painful! Painful!" Zhang Tianzhi was about to free herself from the rope, but she ran into a wound.

"Big Brother Zhang, don't move. Your arm seems to have been scratched by a living dead person." Yin Chenglan said worriedly.

"Hey, hey, hey!" The two of you being intimate with each other, it's as if we brothers don't exist! " One of the two men in black who seemed to be neglected in front of Zhang Tian Shi said.

"Who are you!?" Why do you want us? " Zhang Tianzhi asked the black-clothed man.

"Haha!" Of course we're bad guys! Don't you remember us so soon, boy? A year ago, when he was playing hero in front of us and was kicked away by our leader, did he forget? " Another man in black answered.

"So it's you bad guys!" What did you capture us for? "AHH!" "Painful! Painful! Painful!" Zhang Tianxin recalled a year ago and was so excited that she was touched by the rope.

"We don't know either! However, you said that the leader held that broken sword and looked at it for a long time, but didn't seem to be able to get anything out of it! " One of the black-clothed men replied. Then, he looked at the broken sword on the table and spoke to the other black-clothed man.

If not for the fact that the head of the inn arrived in time, both the boy and the woman would have become living corpses. But you see, his arm has also been scratched by the living dead. Another man in black said.

"They probably don't even know where this broken sword came from." After listening to the conversation between the two men in black, Zhang Tianzhi began to mutter to herself. From this, she assumed that they still did not know the origin of the broken sword.

In a mysterious place —

"Lord, your subordinate was incompetent and allowed the Mount Shu disciples to escape. However, I accidentally caught the youngster with the broken sword and a female disciple from Mount Shu." The leader dressed in black said to the red robed mysterious man.

"Forget it, this experiment is a success. You just need to remember to send someone to take care of the main body. Making these unneeded living corpses is just to play with Mount Shu people. Since you captured that boy, then bring him and that broken sword over to me." The mysterious man said with his back still facing the leader.

Outside Peace Town —

"Brother, it's almost noon. That group of zombies saw us leaving Peace Town at dawn, so they stopped chasing us. I guess they really can't see the light of day. So, we should take this opportunity to see what happened to Brother Zhang and Sister Yin." After getting rid of the living dead, Fang Weixue, who was resting on the grass outside Peace Town, said to Ye Hua Qing.

"Yes, eldest senior brother!" Let's hurry back to save them! " Shangguan Li and any of the others also spoke at the same time.

"This... The living dead are too dangerous. Even though they did not chase us back when it was dawn, we managed to escape with great difficulty, so it is very dangerous to go back and find out about the situation. Therefore, when my black hawk hasn't come back to help inspect the situation, for the sake of your safety, we should continue to wait for the Black Hawk or the Sect Leader's rescue. " Ye Hua Qing said to the crowd.

In the room where Zhang Tian Shi was tied up — —

"Brother Zhang, are you alright?" They both seem to be asleep, and we'll see if there's any way to get out of it. " After seeing the two black-clothed guards fall asleep, Yin Chenglan whispered to Zhang Tianxin.

"The wound on my arm is so hot! Furthermore, there seems to be something crawling around in my mind, so I am unable to calm down and think of a way to escape. Zhang Tian Shi said with a pained expression.

"Big Brother Zhang, you won't become a living corpse. Calm down first, I …" Before Yin Chenglan could finish his words, he heard a loud "smack!" With a bang, two figures instantly appeared outside the door and killed one of the men in black. At the same time, the other man in black was roused from his stupor.

"Princess Shi!" Why are you here? "Ahhh!" The remaining man in black asked Princess Shi Mu. However, he had not finished his questioning when he died in front of Princess Shi Mu's blade.

"Of course I'm here to kill you!" Princess Lion said as she sheathed her blade.

Princess Shi Mu then turned to the man with him and said, "This stone has become so red here. That must be the reason why it was stolen by these men in black. I'll go take a look first. Little Leopard, go and release those two men."

The stone in Princess Lion's hand was obtained from the beast race's old patriarch, the Dark Night Banyan Tree. Therefore, this stone was also one of the magic treasures of the Dark Night Banyan Tree, so as long as the white stone absorbed the blood essence of the beast race, it would be able to find the beast tooth symbol of the beast tribe.

The closer the stone in Princess Shi Mu's hand was to the animal tooth pendant, the redder it became. However, she didn't know that the animal tooth pendant was with Zhang Tian Shi.

Ever since Zhang Tian Shi had picked up the animal tooth pendant a year ago, because it could help her cultivate and raise her concentration, she had kept it with her.

"So you are from the demon race. Thank you for saving us. I didn't expect to meet you again in such a manner in a year. We can be considered fated." Zhang Tian Shi looked at the two dead men in black who had turned into ashes before cupping her hands in a salute to Princess Shi.

Previously, the black-clothed man's reminder reminded Zhang Tianxia of the scene where she was kicked flying by the black-clothed man's leader a year ago. Now, when he saw Princess Shi and Little Leopard, he recalled that they were kicked flying to help them.

"One year ago? Eyebrows... Oh! "You're the idiot who was sent flying by the black-clothed man with a kick in order to become a hero a year ago!" After thinking about it for a moment, Princess Shi recalled the scene of her meeting with Zhang Tian Shi a year ago.

"I …" Zhang Tian Shi was left speechless by Princess Shi.

Just as Zhang Tianyi was preparing to leave with his broken sword and Yin Chenglan, a voice suddenly came from not too far away, "Quickly go check it out. There seems to be some movement over there."

"Their people are here. Let's hurry up and leave." Zhang Tian Shi said to Princess Shi and Little Leopard.

Soon after, Zhang Tianzhi and the others got rid of the pursuers and hid in an empty house in Peace Town.

"Ah!" "AHH!" "Ahhh!" As the sky gradually darkened, Zhang Tianxin, who was in the private room, also felt more and more pain.

"Brother Zhang, are you alright?" Looking at the increasingly painful Zhang Tian Shi, Yin Chenglan could only watch from the side without any other choice.

"Miss Yin …" You... If you hurry and take them away, I'm afraid I'll become a living corpse. " Zhang Tianzhi said to Yin Chenglan. He felt that it was becoming more and more difficult for him to speak.

"NO!" Big Brother Zhang, you are doing this to save me, I will not leave you behind! " Yin Chenglan looked worriedly at Zhang Tianyi, causing her to feel extremely conflicted and sad.

"Miss Yin, I can see that you're about to cry. Since I met you, I naturally wouldn't abandon you. But, I can't find a doctor now, and I don't think a doctor can help you with that, so let me think of a way to save you!" After Princess Shi Mu finished speaking to Yin Chenglan, he continued to speak to the pained Zhang Tian Shi.

"… …"

"Humph!" The sky is already completely dark, let's see where you can run to this time! " Because of Zhang Tian Shi's situation, the black-clothed man, who knew where they were, directed the twenty plus newly created living dead to charge towards the house they were in.

"Miss, it's bad!" The living dead are coming for us! " The leopard in charge of lookout shouted.

"Brother Zhang, leave quickly!" Yin Chenglan helped Zhang Tianyi up, and Princess Lion and Little Leopard once again began their escape.

"Miss Yin, you …" You guys go first, if this goes on, who's going to … No one can leave, I... I'll... I'll help you block them. " Because Yin Chenglan wanted to help Zhang Tianxia escape, the group of people didn't run as fast as the group of zombies.

"The living shall rest in peace, the dead shall rest in peace, and the heavens and earth shall be reincarnated." Just as Zhang Tianzhi was about to use the broken sword and the living corpses as the final battle, many yellow talismans suddenly floated down from the sky, accompanied by sounds.

Then, the crowd looked at the group of living dead that had been pasted onto the yellow talisman and suddenly stood still on the spot.

Soon after, when all the living dead were still, a voice came again, "Heaven and earth, six laws and nine chapters, heaven and earth limitless, the universe itself is fixed, drive!"

Then, everyone heard the sound of "Drive!" After he finished chanting, black smoke rose from the heads of all the living dead that were stuck with the yellow talismans, and they all fell to the ground.

Then, a slightly chubby man in a white and yellow robe jumped down from the roof of a nearby building and said with his hands clasped together, "You can all release your mind from sleep now."

"Many thanks for your help, brother. Are you here to help the citizens of Peace Town?" Yin Chenglan asked this Taoist who looked quite young.

"That's right. I am Wu Shenkun of the Three Pure Mountain Sect. I heard that there are living dead in the Peace Town, so I came here on my master's orders to check on the reason. I also came here to help the commoners." Wu Shen Kun replied to Yin Chenglan.

"So you're a Taoist. Then do you know what's going on with these living dead people?" Princess Shi asked Wu Shen Kun.

"Ahem, my name is Shen Kun, not Shen Ke [1]. Judging from the records of the Three Pure Mountain, these living dead should have been caused by a Blood Insane Silkworm from the Western Regions, which lives in the fire of the thousand-year-old Fire Dragon Cave in the Western Regions. It is difficult for even Sword God experts to easily enter that place, moreover, it would be very difficult to find this Blood Insane Silkworm even if they entered. According to legend, only six hundred years ago, the Demon Lord obtained this silkworm and placed it in a living person's body, thereby using it to absorb the lifetime of his cultivation technique to increase his own. The person who is sent to the silkworm will become the mother of his Blood Insane Scorpion, and at the same time become abnormally powerful and violent, and the person bitten by the mother will have the blood of his mother enter his body and become the living dead person you have seen. After they became living dead, they would transfer their essence, energy, and divine to the foster parents for cultivation. Then, they would continue to pass on the blood of the Blood Crazy Silkworm to other normal people. The living dead who have obtained the blood of the Blood Frenzied Worm will become berserk and bite and injure, while the foster parents can control them and make them obey orders through the mother's blood of the Blood Frenzied Worm, and they won't be able to kill them no matter what they do. Thus, they can only destroy the control nerves by piercing through the head, so I used a yellow talisman to place a spell on the head to destroy all of the living dead just now. And the mother cannot control the living dead in the sun, so they only come out at night. " Wu Shen Kun replied.

"Then this... This group of dead … A dead person was someone who had died from the very beginning... Then they would all die … "Dead?" Zhang Tianzhi asked Wu Shen Kun in great pain and difficulty. She also thought back to when her broken sword had pierced into her head, causing her to be unable to stand up again. The dead man's nerves had been damaged.

"Sigh!" That's right, they were drained of their life energy when they first became living dead, so they died when they first became living dead. Thus, I am just helping their souls to reincarnate. " Wu Shen Kun replied with a sigh.

After listening to Wu Shen Kun's explanation, Yin Chenglan became anxious again and asked Wu Shen, "Then Brother Wu, please come and take a look. Is there any hope for you?"

"Although he hasn't lost his mind yet, seeing that his wounds have turned black isn't a good thing. Therefore, I will try my best to cure him. The end result still depends on his luck." Wu Shen Kun looked at Zhang Tian Shi's wound and said.

"Heh …" Heh, what if … Since I can't save him, I'll just … I will also give reincarnation … "I guess so." Zhang Tianzhi said with a smile at the end. Then, she closed her eyes and thought back to many things that had happened in the past.
