There is a trick

Chapter 96: Yuwu Box Cannon (4K)

"I originally wanted to use the evil spirit of this 'uncorrupted corpse' to suppress the corpse.

Now it seems that it was all in vain.”

Yang Xifeng jumped down from the edge of the copper coffin, turned around and looked at the purple-red corpse water dripping around the wooden coffin, and smiled bitterly: "We, the corpse-driving team, had high hopes for this incorruptible corpse, but we didn't expect that when it met your corpse, it was like a cat meeting a tiger, and it couldn't shake off its majesty at all.

Instead, I was so scared that I peed all over the floor."

"A lion that is stiff needs to rely on the evil spirit from a corpse?
So you guys would spend a lot of money to buy this incorruptible corpse from Wang Guotou?" Zhou Chang looked at the purple-red corpse water dripping from the wooden coffin, his eyes moving slightly.

The 'Wang Guotou' he referred to was the caravan leader Wang Tiexiong.

"Guotou" is mostly a name for the head or leader of a caravan.

Zhou Chang's fingers unconsciously turned the red rope on his wrist.

——The red rope has accumulated enough power in the underworld, but so far there is no sign that it has been able to drag a coffin to Zhou Chang's biological mother's grave.

It had been dormant until then.

Until now, wisps of red air began to flow out from Zhou Chang's wrist.

For some reason, after floating and lingering in the entire central hall, these wisps of red air gathered around the bronze and wooden coffins that imprisoned the corpses of the dead and the uncorrupted corpses, and swirled back and forth.

At this time, Yang Xifeng replied to Zhou Chang: "Corpses can gather evil spirits, and after being processed by our corpse-driving team with special methods, they can emit corpse hair.

This kind of corpse hair is also one of the raw materials used by Baizhifang to make Taishi.

Depending on the color, it is divided into different grades. Baizhifang recycles corpse hair and has different prices.

Furthermore, it is indeed as you thought - our zombie lions need to rely on corpse poison and corpse evil to blur their minds. This kind of strange and poisonous substance, when inhaled into the body of the corpse driver, can use special means to grow long hair on the corpse driver's surface, and then "communicate" with the lion.

Only in this way can you control the lion. "

Zhou Chang looked at the wisps of red air surrounding the bronze and wooden coffins. He was moved and asked Yang Xifeng, "What is the origin of this incorruptible corpse?"

As he spoke, he walked towards the coffin.

After being dealt with by the corpse drivers, the incorruptible corpse in the coffin became quiet again.

Rusty copper coins were passed through square holes with red ropes and spread out on the wooden coffin, forming a fine net.

Under the net, the gaps in the wooden coffin were all blocked by a layer of steamed glutinous rice, and outside the glutinous rice layer, the gaps were outlined with cinnabar ink.

The coffin containing the uncorrupted corpse was wrapped in such a way that it seemed sealed.

Now Zhou Chang couldn't open the coffin, but he wanted to check the uncorrupted corpse inside to see what it was like and why it was attracted to the red rope on his wrist.
"You'll have to ask the original owner of the uncorrupted corpse."

Yang Xifeng smiled and pouted behind Zhou Chang.

When Zhou Chang turned around, he saw Wang Tiexiong leading a few caravan brothers, carrying Mauser rifles and surrounding them.

He also heard the conversation between Zhou Chang and the other man, reached out and patted the lid of the wooden coffin, and said with a smile: "This female corpse was found when our caravan happened to pass through Xiangxi and encountered a mountain torrent. It lingered in the area for a few days.

After the mountain flood, we passed through the mountains and forests and saw the female corpse outside a cave.

At that time, the corpse had a beautiful face, like a blooming flower, and there was a constant scent emanating from the body, which made people feel eerie at first sight.

The local guide said that this was the wife that the "Seventy-two Caves Mountain God" married home, also known as the "Fallen Flower Cave Girl".

Now that she has been washed out of the cave, it must be that the mountain god no longer wants her.

If she stays there, she will bring disaster to the local area.

So we wanted to do a good deed and put the female corpse into the coffin and brought it here.”

"This incorruptible corpse turned out to be a female corpse?" Zhou Chang was stunned when he heard this, and his desire to continue exploring this incorruptible corpse faded a little.

He saw red ropes emitting red gas, surrounding the coffin.

I secretly guessed that the incorrupt body in the coffin might be a "shell of life".

But now Wang Tiexiong bluntly said that the corpse in the coffin was a woman - based on the few life shells he had seen before, none of them was a woman's.

The possibility that the uncorrupted corpse is a living shell is greatly reduced.

There may be other reasons why the red rope was tied around her coffin.

Zhou Chang turned his gaze to the bronze coffin next to him.

The corpse drivers worked together to seal the copper coffin, but they only wrapped a large net of copper coins and red thread around the outside of the coffin. They did not seal the coffin completely like they did with the wooden coffin for an incorruptible corpse. Even the gaps were filled with glutinous rice juice, cinnabar ink and other things.

Yang Xifeng stood with his hands behind his back, looking at his busy subordinates, and explained to Zhou Chang and Wang Tiexiong: "Now your corpse has a new evil spirit, the corpse hair has just grown, the dryness is strong, and the fire is too strong.

If it is sealed in a copper coffin like this, the fire will continue to accumulate inside the coffin, which will cause the corpse to degenerate further.

This is equivalent to giving it a chance to refine its fire nature in the coffin, and eventually the copper coffin will be refined into copper liquid. When it is worn on its body, it will inevitably turn into a 'general's corpse' or a 'copper-armored corpse' born with evil power and destiny - this is also an extremely ferocious demon!

Therefore, the copper coffin cannot be sealed nowadays. Every night at midnight, something must be thrown into the coffin to kill its dryness.

At midnight on the first night, one hundred and eight raw eggs were thrown into the coffin;
At midnight on the second night, pour cow blood into the coffin;

At midnight on the third night..."

Yang Xifeng has led a group of corpse-driving brothers and has traveled the world for many years. He has his own mature methods for dealing with evil corpses.

He explained to everyone what needed to be done at midnight during the seven nights after the corpse was collected.

Zhou Chang nodded earnestly and agreed: "The corpse is different from other evil corpses. Once this corpse is full of food, it will definitely change. Even now, it seems to be imprisoned in the bronze coffin, but it may have other secret means to kill people.

Therefore, I will be watching over you at midnight during these seven days to ensure that the 'corpse suppression ritual' goes smoothly."

This corpse has been designated as 'Nanatian' by the God of Wealth. Zhou Chang doesn't know if the God of Wealth has any other tricks up his sleeve.

At this critical moment, he was naturally extra careful.

After he finished speaking, Yang Xifeng and Wang Tiexiong looked at each other and nodded: "Okay."

"The Uncorrupted Corpse also stops here. Even if it cannot use its evil spirit to suppress the vicious nature of the Corpse, it can always absorb some of the food energy here, and also compete with the Corpse for food.

It’s a good thing for us that the corpses have nothing to eat.” Yang Xifeng said again.

Wang Tiexiong frowned when he heard this.

Although he did not have the skills of the corpse driver, he intuitively felt that the other party's arrangements were selfish.

However, what the other party said makes sense.

Moreover, if the incorruptible corpse is moved to another place, people will have to be assigned to look after it. If we have to take care of both ends when an emergency occurs, we will be caught in a dilemma.

So Wang Tiexiong thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Zhou Chang naturally had no objection to this.

"I thought there would be a lot of trouble on the first night of collecting the corpses.

It might take several deaths for the corpse to settle down, but I didn't expect that Brother Zhou was capable enough to suppress the corpse's counterattack by himself. "Wang Tiexiong looked at Zhou Chang with a smile, and waved to his brother behind him, who immediately came over quickly holding a red silk cloth box.

Wang Tiexiong handed the red silk cloth box to Zhou Chang: "It's just a small gift, just to thank Brother Zhou for saving Lao Si's life.

I have always wanted to give Brother Zhou something as a token of my gratitude.

After much thought, this is the only thing that can express our feelings.

Brother Zhou, please accept it."

Zhou Chang did not accept the gift immediately after hearing this. Instead, he asked Wang Tiexiong, "Is the fourth brother's condition more stable?"

"I sleep more peacefully now.

I guess he must have overcome that obstacle this time." Wang Tiexiong opened the red silk cloth box, and inside, a shiny black Mauser pistol was lying on the silk cloth, with a piece of red cloth attached to the end of the pistol.

Next to the Mauser pistol was a brown-red cowhide holster carved with intricate patterns.

"Foreign guns..."

Zhou Chang looked at the guns inside, and a light flickered in his eyes.

“Sheep gun?
It's a bit of a waste to use this gun to kill sheep.

This gun is on his waist. When Brother Zhou travels around the world, the bandits will be much more obedient when they see this thing. The reputation of "Jin Ting Steel Box Gun" and "Yuwu Box Cannon" is still very loud in the world.

Although the Tamaya box gun is useless against ghosts and gods, it is enough to kill people. "Wang Tiexiong took out the 'Mauser pistol' from the cloth box, pointed the muzzle diagonally at the empty space on the side, and handed it to Zhou Chang, "Come on, Brother Zhou, try it out!
I'll have them give you the bullets later so you can practice on your own!"

Zhou Chang respectfully obeyed and took the gun as instructed.

As soon as you hold the gun, you will feel its cool and heavy feeling, which gives you a sense of security.

However, Zhou Chang frowned as he held the pistol: "Jin Ting Steel Box Gun? Yuwu Box Gun... Is this the name of this gun?"

This does not match the name of this type of firearm that he knew about at the time!
Wasn’t this type of firearm manufactured by the foreign Mauser Arsenal?
The official claim is that it shouldn't be a Mauser pistol?
Isn’t “foreign rifle” the common name for this type of firearm?
Jinting steel box gun, Yuwu box cannon... Although the box cannon and box gun sound vaguely familiar, what special meaning do the Jinting and Yuwu in front of them have?
"Yes." Zhou Chang's expression made Wang Tiexiong confused. "All the guns in the world that look like the ones in your and my hands are called Jinting Steel Box Gun and Yuwu Box Cannon. What's the problem with that?
The prototype of this firearm was discovered from a hidden mine called the 'Jinting Military Museum'.

The hidden mine there was named "Jinting Mine" by the big man who controlled it.

Later, a 'Jade House Cave' was discovered in the Jinting Mine. During the parade of ghosts and gods, more than a hundred people in the prospecting team died in the mining area. In this Yin Mine, only the prototype of the box gun was discovered.

Later, firearms of this type were named Tamaya box gun and Kinting box gun.

Brother Zhou rarely goes out, so it seems he doesn't understand what's going on outside."

Zhou Chang lowered his eyelids, as if he was carefully observing the 'Yuwu Box Cannon' in his hand, but his pupils suddenly shrank - Wang Tiexiong's words, which sounded ordinary to Yang Xifeng, set off a huge wave in Zhou Chang's heart!
"In other words, this gun was not obtained through trade with foreigners?
It was taken from the Jinting Military Museum..." Zhou Chang suppressed his turbulent emotions, kept his voice calm, and asked Wang Tiexiong.

His words, on the contrary, confused both Wang Tiexiong and Yang Xifeng.

"What is a Sheepman?"

"If a person has horns on his head and square holes in his eyes, then that would be a sign of him becoming a ghost, or even a demon. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to call him a sheep ghost?
However, this type of firearm does come from the mining area of the Jinting Military Museum."

The responses from the two made Zhou Chang's heart surge even more violently.

These two people are well-traveled people in the world. If there were foreigners in the world today, they would definitely not fail to understand what Zhou Chang meant by "foreigners"!
Unless, in today's world, there are no foreigners at all!
"Foreigners are those people whose hair and skin color are different from ours, and whose language is different from ours." In order to confirm his guess, Zhou Chang asked the two again, "Haven't you seen them?
I also read in some books that there are such people in the world..."

"I've never seen it, let alone heard of it!" Wang and Yang shook their heads at the same time.

Yang Xifeng even called in Luo Budongzhu, a peddler from the secret Tibetan area who used to frequent upper-class places in Shanghai, and asked him whether he had ever seen the kind of person Zhou Chang mentioned.

Luobudongzhu asked for an exorbitant price, but after being slapped several times, he finally calmed down and shook his head, saying that he had never seen the "foreigner" that Zhou Chang mentioned.

Foreigners don't exist in this world at all!

On the contrary, it is the 'Yin Mine'——

Zhou Chang still remembered that there was a medicinal ingredient in the "Bangui Pill Recipe", which was the "Blood of the Yinkuang Ox".

He didn't pay attention to it at the time, but now it seems that this "yin mine" hides a big secret!
According to Wang Tiexiong, the so-called "Jinting Military Museum" is just one of the many hidden mines.

Although Zhou Chang had never heard of the name of this "Yin Mine" before, he felt a sense of familiarity when he heard it now!

Could this Yin Mine come from his previous world?

Is it possible that all the Yin Minerals that appeared in the world came from his previous world? !

“I have lived in Tsing Yi since I was a child and have never traveled far away.

My understanding of the outside world is limited to those people who came to Qingyi from outside, or a little bit of it from books - what exactly is this "yin mine"? I have never heard of it.

In addition to the Jinting Mine, do you know of any other hidden mines?

Such a gun is exquisitely made and its power is probably not weak. It turned out that the prototype was obtained from the Yin Mine and then imitated and produced... The big man who controls this Yin Mine must have made a fortune just by casting this gun.

It can be seen that Yin minerals are valuable.

I wonder if it is possible for a small person like us to explore a Yin mine?" Zhou Chang calmed his mind, pondered for a long time, and asked several questions to everyone.
