Legend Of Zombie Country

C31

All his equipment had long since been lost in the water. The old Daoist took out a wet paper talisman from his bosom. With a wave of his hand, it turned into a ball of flame that persisted for a long time. He then threw it upwards, and it floated in the air, slowly drifting forward.

The old Daoist took out two more paper talismans and placed them in front of himself to guard himself. He then followed the flames and slowly walked forward to clear the way. We were soaked and supporting each other as we stumbled forward.

I used the flame to examine the cave.

This cave is below the Soul Gathering Array that we passed by. The further in we go, the wider this cave becomes. There were no marks left by the knife or axe, and it looked to have been formed naturally.

The howls of the Yin Corpses behind him grew further and further away, presumably he did not chase them.

Mr. Leng, who was carried by Lin Ziqiang, was still unconscious. Lin Ziqiang could not help but ask curiously, "Master, what did you encounter in the tomb? "Why is Mr. Leng unconscious?"

The old Daoist didn't stop and said without turning his head, "We encountered a Yang Soul attack inside, he was hit without even checking!"

Just when I was curious about the Yang Soul, I heard Lin Ziqiang exclaim, "The Yang Soul can only appear in the True Sun Land and is worshipped by fire. This Three Yin Tomb is a land of absolute Yin, why would there be a Yang Soul inside?"

The old cultivator paused and said, "This should be the center of the Three Yin Tomb. With how dense the Yin energy is, it must have been created by the owner of the tomb. As for the incense stick, it must have been brought in by the owner of the tomb."

Hearing the old Daoist Priest's words, Snowy couldn't help but furrow her brows and say, "This method is somewhat similar to our Yin Yang Sect's method? "Could it be …"

The old Daoist shook his head and said, "Impossible, an expert with this skill is definitely not a nameless person in my Yinyang Sect. Moreover, from the looks of it, the time in this tomb was before my Yinyang Sect was founded, so it shouldn't have anything to do with my senior!"

Lin Ziqiang was puzzled as well. He asked softly, "Master, do you know which expert gave guidance to this tomb? And who saved us? "

The old Daoist sighed and said somewhat dejectedly, "This Seven Evils Three Yin Tomb is completely out of my reach. I cannot compare to the methods inside this tomb, so the expert that saved us must understand it very well. However, other than the soul fire, he did not reveal any other methods."

After pausing for a moment, the old Daoist continued, "However, this person has been forcing us to move towards the center of the tomb. He must be trying to make use of us. Now, we finally managed to escape with our lives, one step at a time!"

Hearing the old Daoist priest speak in such a helpless manner, everyone's hearts also became sorrowful. They no longer said anything and silently advanced on their journey.

I held onto Snowy and walked forward slowly. However, I kept thinking about what had happened in the tomb. My mother told me those words as if the tomb was a conspiracy against me, but who had planned it? Why me? As I delved deeper and deeper into the tomb, the mysteries in my heart increased, as if I had fallen into a huge whirlpool.

The more I thought about it, the more confused I became. I didn't notice that something seemed to have stepped on my feet. I looked down and saw that it was actually a human calf bone!

At this time, Snowy also cried out in surprise. She pointed to the side and said, "Look!"

I turned my head and saw a complete set of bones beside me. After so many years had passed, these bones had already become extremely refined. However, there were traces of something heavy chopping into the skull. Presumably, he had been killed in this place while he was still alive.

The old Daoist stopped in his tracks and carefully examined the white bone. After a thousand years of baptism, these bones' clothes had long since turned to dust, and there was no way to find any clues from their clothing. This white bone was also severely weathered. With a light touch, the old Daoist Priest turned into dust.

Xiao Xue curiously asked, "What kind of person is this? Why would he die here?"

The old Daoist looked at it and said with a frown, "This white bone was killed here when he was alive. There is nothing to indicate his identity." However, in a place like the Three Yin Tomb, you actually did not get affected by the Yin Qi.

Lin Ziqiang was also curious. He asked, "Could it be that this cave can isolate Yin Qi?"

Hearing Lin Ziqiang's words, I was shocked in my heart. If it was really so, could this be the way out that my mother told me to go? But why were there so many bones on this path?

The old Daoist felt uncertain and said uncertainly, "This cave seems to be naturally formed, so there shouldn't be an expert's method of isolating Yin Qi. However, this Great Thousand World is full of wonders, so we might as well learn this place as a treasure ground!"

The crowd could not figure it out so they could only keep walking forward.

This cave was quite winding. After walking forward for about half an hour, we turned a few corners and were surprised to find that the bones on both sides of the cave unexpectedly increased in number.

There were only two or three at the beginning of the term, and the more he walked, the more there were. In the end, the entire cave was covered in bones, and there wasn't even a place to step down!

When the old Daoist saw this, he could not help but stop in his tracks. His brow was tightly furrowed, as if he had encountered some difficult problem.

Seeing this scene, we were all bewildered. Lin Ziqiang could not help but ask, "Master, is this not a burial ground for martyrs?"

The old Daoist shook his head and said, "The burial pit definitely won't be built under the main tomb. Moreover, we can't feel any Yin Qi at all. It can't be a burial pit!"

Xiao Xue couldn't help but ask, "Master, what should we do now?"

The old cultivator wasn't confident either, but there was no way back. He clenched his teeth and said, "Continue forward. I want to see why there are so many bones!"

Ever since we entered this tomb, we have been continuously chased. In order to survive, we had no choice but to keep moving forward.

The white bones on the ground have already weathered to a very serious state. We only needed to lightly step on them to turn them into bone dust that scattered in all directions. Regardless of whether the bone powder had poison or not, just the thought of sucking it into a person's bone made him panic. We covered our mouths and noses as we carefully moved forward.

The bones on the two sides increased in number. In the end, they were actually stacked layer by layer.

Just as I was carefully observing the white bones on both sides, I heard Xiao Xue's body shudder and grunt. I thought that there was something unexpected going on with Xiao Xue so I hastily asked, "What's wrong?"

The old Daoist Priest and Lin Ziqiang also stopped. The old Daoist asked in a deep voice, "Xiao Xue, what happened?"

Snowy frowned and said, "Something under my feet pricked me."

Wherever we passed, the bones would be turned into powder and we wouldn't be able to see our feet anymore. Hearing Snowy's words, I didn't care about being disgusted anymore as I hastily squatted down and started to search within the bone dust.

I hastily swept away the bone dust on the ground and unexpectedly, there was a palm-sized compass on the ground between us. It was the kind that was commonly used by Feng Shui, but this compass was already broken and covered with countless cracks, and a lot of the interior plate had already fallen off. The Heaven Lake's pointer was also bent, so the one that was pierced by Xiao Xue must be this compass.

As we looked at the compass, we were at a loss of what to do. To our surprise, the old Daoist's expression changed drastically as he exclaimed, "The Dingshan Compass!"

Seeing the old Daoist being so excited, Snowy was startled. Could it be that this compass had some sort of secret? Thus, he hastily asked, "Teacher, what is this Dingshan Compass?"

Forty years ago, there was a temple in Guangxi, and this temple produced a grand master with unparalleled skills. He visited every corner of the country, but didn't meet any enemies, and was known as the Monk of Dingshan. This compass was his personal treasure. "However, thirty-six years ago, this Monk Dingshan had disappeared without a trace.

He sighed and continued, "Monk Dingshan doesn't have any disciples. Ever since he went missing, the temple has no inheritances. It's normal that you guys don't know, but I didn't expect that monk Dingshan would come to this tomb."

When Lin Ziqiang heard this, he became curious and said, "Could it be that Monk Dingshan died here?"

The old Daoist still frowned and said, "That's not right. If Monk Dingshan had already died here, it would only be thirty-six years. His corpse wouldn't turn into a corpse like this!"

Lin Ziqiang said, "It's possible that this Monk Dingshan might have met with some sort of danger. Could it be that the Dingshan Compass was destroyed here, and then he died outside the inner cave?"

The old Daoist Priest was silent. What Lin Ziqiang said was reasonable. This compass had appeared too strangely, so he was temporarily unable to make a decision.

At this moment, Xiao Xue suddenly said, "Master, no matter what, this Monk Dingshan has been here before. Either leave this place or die outside. No matter what, this place might be the way out!"

Hearing Snowy's words, we were shocked. No matter if Monk Dingshan died here or outside, he must have walked through this cave. The end of this cave could very well be the way out.

The old cultivator's face lit up and he said, "Not bad. It looks like this is our only way out!"

Lin Ziqiang's spirit was also lifted as he said, "If that's the case, then let's hurry on our way!" Saying so, he subconsciously touched his chest. Everyone was currently in a happy mood, so they didn't pay attention to it.

Hearing this, my heart skipped a beat. This old Taoist acted as if nothing had happened to me, but the front had always wanted to kill me. If I could really get out, would this old Taoist kill me and silence me? Moreover, the Yin Corpses were right behind them, if they were to run, then where could they run to?

Thinking about this, my face darkened. Snowy seemed to see my worry. She tugged at the corner of my clothes and said softly, "Don't think too much about it. Master isn't that kind of person!"

I thought to myself, Your master is ruthless and views human life as grass. When the time comes, do you want to kill me or do you want me to keep this a secret? However, this old Daoist Priest was here. Moreover, Xiao Xue had a deep relationship with this old Daoist Priest, so these words could not be said out loud.

Lin Ziqiang turned his head and looked at me. He smiled strangely and said, "Kid, you haven't left yet. Let's think about how we can see the sun outside first!" She turned her head away from me.

Xiao Xue only looked at me, not paying attention to Lin Ziqiang's expression, but I was forced to laugh so hard that I felt uncomfortable. Lin Ziqiang has been in a bad mood ever since he came back, why is he still helping me in the dark? Or could it be that he was no longer Lin Ziqiang?

I felt like I was being swallowed up by a giant whirlpool. Countless questions lingered in my mind and I couldn't help but fall silent.

Snowy saw that I was depressed and didn't say anything more. On the other hand, the old Daoist acted as if he did not hear him. He did not say a word and only led the way, not knowing what to think.

No one said anything for a while. We just silently continued forward.
