Chapter seven hundred and eighty first empty coffin

I quickly ran forward three or four meters. When I was walking in the Gang just now, the corpse ghost had already distanced from me three or four meters.

With a gunshot, the bullet hit something behind me. I didn't care about it. When I came to the corpse ghost, I stabbed the green steel sword.

Actually, I had expected that even under the pressure of star power, the corpse ghoul covered with hard shells should still be able to move, but when it really avoided the sword edge again, I was still angry.

Why is this thing so difficult?

I remember that the corpse ghouls that my master suppressed and formed at the time were not as hard as I am now.

However, the corpse ghoul seemed to have to take a lot of effort to move quickly. After avoiding my green steel sword, it began to move towards a place that was not covered by star power, but the speed was obviously slowing down. I followed it and it flashed again, dodging away.

I couldn't stab the corpse ghost, but the witch of Cidan got closer and closer to me. I didn't care whether he could understand me or not, so I shouted in the direction he was: "Don't come over!"

While Wu Lin ran towards me, he was still shouting something I couldn't understand, but the great wizard of Shidan had no intention of stopping.

If he runs into an area covered by star power, even if the ghoul doesn't do anything to him, the heavy star power can crush his old arms and legs.

But he rushed in after all.

When one of his feet was stepping on the edge of the star force field, a small part of the body of the corpse ghoul had already rushed out of the star force field, and I was following the corpse ghoul.

I think that at that moment, the corpse ghost and the witch of Cidan should have had a very short communication.

I'm not sure if that can be considered a kind of "communication". But when the corpse ghost passed by the great witch of Cidan, a feeling that made me feel very familiar.

That feeling, gentle and calm, was like the feeling that the green steel sword gave me when it was in my hand, or rather, it was like a treasure that saw its master, and the breath on its body became quiet in an instant.

At that moment, the corpse ghost actually stopped moving. I realized that this might be my best choice. I stepped forward without hesitation and slashed the corpse ghost's hard shell with a sword.

I hit it, and this time the ghoul did not dodge at all.

The hard shell was broken, and the star power was immediately poured into the soft flesh. In just a blink of an eye, the Qi field on the body of the corpse ghost was dispersed. It really turned into a pile of lifeless soft flesh and began to rot at an extremely fast speed.

Now the Great Witch of Cidan is standing less than one meter away from me. Although the light is very dark, I can feel the soul sealing talisman on his body stop there.

When Wu Lin ran toward this side, he picked up the torch on the ground. He came to me and shone the face of the Great Witch with the fire, saying something I couldn't understand.

The face of the witch Cidan had a very disappointed expression, and there were two lines of turbid tears on her cheeks.

In response to the feeling that the corpse ghoul gave me just now, I couldn't help but frown and asked Wu Lin: "What's wrong with him?"

Wu Lin looked at the corpse ghosts on the ground, sighed, and said to me: "The daughter of the Great Witch of Cidan is dead."

I looked at the great witch of Cidan, and then at the decaying corpse: "Is my daughter dead?"

Wu Lin nodded: "This guy's body has integrated Lazhen's soul. She is the daughter of the Great Witch of Cidan."

My brows frowned even more, and I stared at Wu Lin's eyes: "What the hell is going on? Didn't the corpse ghosts be brought by Luo Zhongxing?"

Wu Lin said: "The daughter of the Great Witch of Cidan died miserably, so after her death she became a demon. The one named Luo Zhongxing came in the name of eliminating demons. He let this thing suck Lazhen's soul away, even if it was eliminating demons successfully. The Great Witch of Cidan once said that he always knew that before Lazhen's soul had disappeared, it was imprisoned in the body of this thing."

No wonder the corpse ghoul gave me that feeling just now. I believe Lazhen had briefly recovered her mind when she saw her father.

The reason why the great witch of Cidan rushed here quickly when she was lost in her state of mind seemed to have noticed that Lazhen's soul was in danger of disappearing.

I don't know that this explanation makes sense, but after listening to Wu Lin's words, I think this should be the only reasonable explanation.

I asked Wu Lin: "Is the Great Witch of Cidan awake now?"

Wu Lin's voice seemed puzzled: "What does it mean?"

I said, "You and the Great Wizard of Cidan were both controlled just now, and you fired several shots during this period."

Wu Lin was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said to himself: "No wonder..."

He only said these three words and changed his language. He said something to the Great Wizard of Cidan. The Great Wizard of Cidan did not respond to him in words, but just nodded.

Wu Lin turned his head and said to me, "I'm awake."

After saying that, he stuffed the torch to me, then turned around and walked into the depths of the darkness.

Wu Lin should have gone to find his black copper lining.

I turned my gaze to the great witch of Cidan. He was staring at the ghoul with his expression on his face very confused.

After three or four minutes, Wu Lin came back. I saw that the side pocket of his backpack was bulging a lot more than when it came, so I raised my chin towards his backpack and asked him, "Have you found the thing?"

Wu Lin nodded at me: "I found it. Go out now?"

I said, "You go to the basement corridor to dress up first. The corpse refiner is very likely to come in from that location, and I'll go there and take a look."

While talking, I raised my hand and pointed to the left side of the stone chamber. There was a coffin with a cover, but the coverage of the light was limited and Wu Lin could not see it.

Wu Lin touched his chin and frowned and asked me, "If we don't open the basement door, it's impossible for the corpse refiner to come in, right?"

Isn’t this nonsense?

I looked at him in confusion, not understanding why such a smart person asked such a stupid question, but I nodded at him.

He nodded, saying, "Then you don't have to worry, I'll act with you."

I asked him, "Why follow me?"

I originally wanted to add a sentence later, "Do you don't trust me?", but when I thought about it, he didn't trust me, so I asked in vain if I asked. Besides, I didn't trust him, so I didn't say the second half of the sentence.

Wu Lin gave me the answer: "You have experience in activities like this than me. The probability of survival of the Cidan Dawu and I following you is higher. Although that corpse...what is there?"

I said, "Ghost."

Wu Lin continued: "Although you have solved the corpse ghoul, no one can guarantee that there will be no other emergencies here."

I have to say that Wu Lin's words make sense. This stone chamber is probably a huge tomb. In such an ancient tomb, it is indeed easy to encounter unclean things. Although the corpse and ghosts have been removed, no one can guarantee that there is nothing else deep in the underground where I cannot sense the Qi field, and no one can guarantee that those things will not suddenly come out.

Considering the safety of Cidan Dawu, I finally agreed to let Wu Lin act with me.

I have a feeling that although Wu Lin has a dangerous temperament everywhere, he is still a relatively reliable ally at present.

This time I walked in front, Wu Lin walked in the end, and the witch of the Stan was sandwiched between us.

On the way towards the coffin, I saw the bone whip that was hit by bullets in two pieces, so I squatted down and picked it up.

Wu Lin reminded me later: "Be careful, that thing may still move."

Without Wu Lin's words, I would be careful. I tried to weigh the bone whip and found that some of the arthropods were very light, as if hollow, and some were very heavy, and they should be filled with silver needles.

A rhizome was broken and the fire was shining through it, which could just illuminate its interior. I saw that there were many incomprehensible spells engraved inside.

Since I can't explain what the bone whip is powered by now, I can only temporarily determine that the reason why it can move is related to these strange spells.

But if the spells activate it, why can't these spells sense any qi field without lyricism, spiritual charm, and no qi field can be sensed?

I asked Wu Lin: "I remember you said, I caught it, but I couldn't hit it. What does that mean?"

Wu Lin: "Look at the end of it carefully."

I lifted up the half-bone whip in my hand, looked carefully at the arthropod at the end, and saw scratches on it, as if they were very thin steel wire.

Wu Lin said: "I used steel wire to cover it. I wanted to bind it in this way, but it kept twisting and I couldn't hit it at all."

So that's what it means.

I sighed, threw the bone whip on the ground, then held up the torch and continued to move towards the left part of the stone chamber.

A few minutes later, I finally arrived in front of the coffin.

It was just an ordinary sarcophagus, which was empty inside, without bones, and there were no burial objects, and the lid of the coffin disappeared.

I circled the sarcophagus twice, and found no abnormalities.

Wu Lin asked me: "What are you looking for?"

I shook my head and asked him, "Why are there any coffin here?"

Wu Lin said: "Oh, to reward the person who designed the power plant, the toast buried him here. This coffin belongs to the designer."

I couldn't help but frown: "What kind of reward is this? Where is that person's body?"

Wu Lin: "In this village, after the death of a civilian, the bodies of civilians can only be thrown into the river to feed fish. Only royal people can put the coffin into the soil. The person who designed this power plant was a civilian. The chieftain gave him such a coffin and kept his body. It was the best reward for him. I saw his body last time, but at that time only half of his body was left. It must be that the corpse ghoul treated him as food."

Although the explanations given by Wu Lin are considered perfect, for some reason, I always feel that the reasons he gave me are a bit far-fetched. No, not far-fetched, but... it seems that something is wrong, or something that seems to be unnatural in his words. But I can't tell for a moment what is wrong and unnatural.

I asked Wu Lin again: "Didn't the ghoul's food be coal?"

Wu Lin: "To be precise, its food is carbon, and the carbon element rich in the human body is also its food."

I continued, "Why do you know so much about ghouls?"

Wu Lin: "I don't know anything about that thing. These things were told by Luo Zhongxing, and the chieftain told the great witch Cidan, and then the great witch Cidan, and then the great witch Cidan, and the last time I came, the great witch Cidan hoped that I could get rid of the corpse ghosts, so I told me this information. After the corpse ghosts had eaten carbon, they would generate electricity every night. The stone chamber stored the electricity it emitted and passed it to the machines in the power plant. So for so long after the disaster broke out, the electricity on the Baoding side could still be used."

I thought about it and asked Wu Lin the last question: "Who is the person who designed the power plant?"
