Poor Taoist Qiu Chuji

Chapter 147: Conspiracy and Betrayal
"Qiu Sheng! Try to see if you can hurt them with the talismans." Qiu Chuji said to Qiu Sheng.

Qiu Sheng nodded immediately, took out a piece of talisman paper from his sleeve, raised his hand and lit it on his fingertips, then pointed in the air at one of the two armored zombies.

puff!

The power of the talisman fell on the armored zombie, only burning a tiny scorch mark on its armor, and then the cold frost covered it, quickly erasing the tiny scorch mark.

Both zombies showed signs of waking up, but Qiu Chuji raised his hand and pressed them back.

Qiu Chuji took action and used the authentic Xuanxin talisman principles to cast the Maoshan corpse-suppressing talisman.

The two zombies immediately became completely quiet, and their already confused minds fell into complete chaos.

Most zombies have high physical defense and low magical defense.

Speaking of higher-level zombies, there is a real possibility that they might target Qiu Chuji. If they have some 'hybrid' characteristics, ordinary talismans and spells will hardly be effective. The powerful Maoshan talismans that Qiu Chuji learned will also be useless. If he encounters them, it might be a tough fight.

The two zombies in front of us clearly prove that the Fearless Association's creation of hybrid zombies is not accidental or coincidental.

They have really mastered the technology and can achieve mass production.

"Uncle master! It's useless." Qiu Sheng cast several talismans in succession, but the effects were almost zero. Finally, he had to give up.

"I saw it!"

"Take Charles with you, let's go to Qingyun Road in Zhabei!"

······
On Qingyun Road in Zhabei, Lin Jiu and his senior brother Shi Jian arrived here earlier. There are special ways of communication and positioning among the Maoshan disciples.

Lin Jiu insisted on asking Shi Jian to come out of seclusion because as the eldest senior brother of the current generation, Shi Jian had the authority to manage many of his peers and fellow disciples. He could dispatch Maoshan magic tools and locate the whereabouts of the fellow disciple who had gone astray.

Therefore, Lin Jiu and Shi Jian did not need to dig for clues step by step like Qiu Chuji and others, and they went straight to the point.

However, due to the lack of prior investigation, they did not know much about the hidden story behind the incident. They originally came with the intention of bringing charges against the culprit or persuading the culprit to return to the right path, but they accidentally stepped into a trap and fell into a deep dark cave.

The cave was damp and dark. It seemed that no one had looked at the map of the city's underground drainage system when it was excavated, so it was mixed with the city's drainage channels, causing sewage to flow throughout the cave, with the lingering stench of various things rotting and fermenting.

Lin Jiu and Shi Jian were both accomplished Taoist masters, and the moment they fell into the cave, they cast spells to protect themselves.

A ball of white light emerged from the palm of Lin Jiu's hand, the light was soft, while Shi Jian's was simpler, his whole body was shrouded in a faint blue electric current, turning him into a glowing human figure.

"Why are my feet sticky?" Lin Jiu said, lifting his feet to take a look.

Immediately, the hairs on his body stood on end, and even with his rich experience in exorcising demons, his scalp couldn't help but feel numb.

There was a dense mass of blood plasma under my feet, as sticky as grease paste on the ground. It was black with red, and red with purple. In the dim light, it seemed to be wriggling like a living thing.

If you don't look carefully, you might mistake it for a red and black carpet...

Shi Jian's performance seemed calmer than Lin Jiu's. He walked in front, and with every step he took, arcs of electricity spread and flashed, clearing out the surrounding blood plasma. The darkness and weirdness seemed to fade away under his not-so-tall figure.

"Follow up quickly!"

"This is not a place where living people should stay for long." Shi Jian's voice was a little sharp and came from the front.

Lin Jiu nodded and followed immediately.

Just now, he also figured out the layout of this place. It was not a secret room where the living lived, but a tomb where the coffins of the dead were placed.

This type of tomb must be connected to the underground Yin veins. If a living person stays in it for a long time, the smell of life will become weaker and weaker, and the three fires in the body will also become weaker. When the evil ghosts rush in, even if they have amazing magical powers, they will easily fall into disadvantage.

This is the so-called "game" in the Taoist battle. Lin Jiu and Shi Jian fell into a game set by others. They have no advantage in time or place, so they need to race against time and break the game quickly.

Going further in, some dark soil began to appear on the sticky plasma.

These soils are filled with a cold and gloomy aura and are definitely not ordinary things.

"Humph! It really is corpse-raising soil!"

"Qian Shun is a scum. I will definitely clean up his house this time!"

The so-called corpse-raising soil is mostly soil that has accumulated yin and is mixed with a large number of spiders, centipedes, poisonous snakes and other poisonous animals, corpses of plants and branches and leaves, which are ground into a mixture and carry evil spirits and poison.

Corpse-raising soil is rarely created by nature. The ones in front of us are artificially mixed by magic. Raising corpses with corpse-raising soil is more likely to cause corpse transformation, and the zombies raised are also fierce and cruel.

Zombies are actually just like animals, some are strong and some are weak, some move as fast as the wind, while others behave sluggishly.

This is related to the environment in which they were formed and the foundation on which they were cast.

If an ordinary person unfortunately gets infected with corpse poison and dies, turning into a zombie, it is the worst kind of zombie. It is only slightly stronger than an ordinary person, but its movements are stiff and its reactions are slow. Ordinary people can easily deal with it if they know some targeted methods.

Going further, you will see that the tomb chamber has the eight trigrams turned upside down and the heaven and earth are turned upside down, with a large number of roosters with their throats cut hanging in the air.

Some had been dead for a long time, while others were still bleeding slowly, obviously having been killed not long ago.

This is not the Maoshan method of corpse-preserving, but a typical evil method.

The rooster is a little phoenix, and hanging the rooster upside down to bleed it, combined with the pattern of turning the heaven and earth upside down and the eight trigrams inverted, is to inject more evil spirits into the zombies, so that they can overcome some of their natural defects, such as retreating and feeling scared when hearing the rooster crowing, because the crowing of the rooster means that the day is about to dawn.

The power of yang fire during the day has a restraining effect on 90% of demons and monsters. Among them, extremely yin creatures such as zombies and ghosts are most restrained by sunlight.

Seeing this situation, Shi Jian couldn't tolerate it anymore.

As he swung his fist, lightning flashed and arcs and sparks spread all over the ground, shattering all the situations that turned the world upside down and upside down.

Lin Jiu stretched out his hand to stop it, but it was too late.

“Brother! We haven’t figured it out yet. Wouldn’t it be too rash to act now? ” Lin Jiu advised in a low voice.

"Humph! If you don't destroy this unorthodox method now, will it work later?"

The two brothers had a disagreement before they even met the real owner of the place.

Going further, you will see coffins hanging in the air.

These coffins were carried on two colored benches, one red and one black, and all were three feet and three inches off the ground.

Some of the coffins have been opened, and the things inside are no longer there.

But more coffins were still tightly closed, and the gloomy and dark energy filled the space, making people feel their scalps tingling.

Wow!
There seemed to be sounds like pouring water.

A large amount of yellow mud poured down from a higher place and was about to flood the space.

At the same time, a huge amount of fresh air was forcibly taken in and injected into the suspended coffins. The coffin lid of each coffin began to beat uncontrollably.

"Such a strong vitality... This is a living sacrifice formation!"

"There should be a school or factory up there, where a lot of young people gather."

"Brother... you shouldn't have destroyed those structures just now! Now that the structures are broken and the living sacrifice formation is activated, the entire underground is like the bottom of a funnel. The people above will be drained of their energy and turned into nutrients for these zombies." Lin Jiu didn't just open his mouth to ask for accountability, at the same time, an eight-diagram bronze mirror flew out of his arms, hanging high in the air, and turned into a bright moon.

When the Bagua bronze mirror was hung high, the yin and yang here were temporarily balanced by Lin Jiu using his cultivation.

Almost single-handedly, he temporarily replaced the previous evil formation, and the fresh energy pouring down from the top of the sky immediately decreased sharply.

"Senior Brother! Please destroy all these zombies. I will take on this upside-down situation first... Hurry up!" The veins on Lin Jiu's forehead bulged, and he looked a lot shorter. The invisible pressure made his whole body twitch and swell with pain.

The electric light that was flashing all over Shi Jian suddenly surged for a moment, and then slowly faded away.

Shi Jian’s figure disappeared from Lin Jiu’s sight.

"I'll go find Qian Shun, root out the scum, and avenge you."

Shi Jian's voice came from the darkness.

Lin Jiu's heart sank, and he shouted with his last bit of strength, "Brother! I can die, but the situation here cannot be delayed. Otherwise, not only will the young people up there be in danger, but once these zombies are released, they will surely cause endless harm."

Shi Jian did not answer.

Since the advent of foreign guns and cannons, not only the archery and horse riding skills and warriors of the past have become worthless!
The same goes for Taoist priests!
Shi Jian was not Qian Shun's accomplice, but at this moment he chose to align with Qian Shun and maintain a kind of "tacit understanding".

When Qiu Chuji and Qiu Sheng took Charles hostage and rushed to Qingyun Road, a yellow paper crane flew out of Qiu Sheng's arms.

"Uncle-master! Master is in danger!" Qiu Sheng immediately said to Qiu Chuji.

"Where is he?" Qiu Chuji asked.

"It's right underground!" Qiu Sheng said, pointing at the ground.

Then he added, "Master told us to ignore him for now and disperse the people in the nearby school or factory first."

Qiu Chuji asked Charles beside him: "Is there a school or factory here?"

"Yes..." Charles replied in a low voice.

Qiu Chuji said: "Qiu Sheng! Take him with you and use his influence to disperse the crowd here. I will go and save Brother Lin!"

"Can you do this?"

Although Qiu Sheng has always seemed unreliable, sometimes we should choose to trust him.

After all, if the online movies that Qiu Chuji watched in his previous life could also be linked to the zombie world, then Qiu Sheng could be considered to have inherited some of Lin Jiu's skills, and he deserves the saying "Qiu Sheng is constant, but his literary talent changes with time".

"Yes...Yes! I can!" Qiu Sheng said loudly.

Qiu Chuji slapped Charles on the back and injected a stream of true energy into his body. If this guy dared to mess around, Qiu Chuji would immediately blow him into pieces.

Without having the time to say anything to Qiu Sheng, Qiu Chuji stomped his foot, creating a big hole in the ground, and then fell down.
