The whole Taoist temple looks quite simple and rustic, with a few wooden stakes placed in the yard.
"These poles are used for practicing martial arts..." said Ding Yunxuan. Although he also learned Taekwondo, he was sent to learn Chinese martial arts when he was a child.
These wooden stakes are used for practicing boxing. Ding Yunxuan looked at the marks left on them...
"This pile must have been practiced for a long time."
The wooden stakes are all traces of boxing left behind….
Does this mean that there are people practicing in this Taoist temple?
For a moment, everyone was confused. There was a main house and two side rooms in the Taoist temple.
Although the buildings in the Taoist temple have become old due to time, they still have an ancient and solemn atmosphere.
"Let's go take a look at the main house." Xiao Nuo said, looking at the main house in front.
The main door was closed and there were a lot of spider webs hanging on it.
"I didn't hear any zombie roars inside." Lin Xiajin said in a deep voice.
The two zombies that Zhang Yuan just killed were wearing ordinary clothes and were looking at the camera. They were probably the staff here.
This is a Taoist temple, so there should be Taoist priests here... or maybe the Taoist priests survived and didn't turn into zombies... or maybe they escaped.
Wang Han and Zhang Yuan kicked the door open at the same time.
bump…
A cloud of dust was stirred up, and when the dust settled... everyone could see the face inside clearly.
The room houses a bronze statue of the Three Pure Ones, the three most common deities in Taoist temples and the three supreme gods of Taoism.
They are collectively known as "The Three Pure Ones, the Three Realms, and the Three Treasures of the Heavenly Lord of Nothingness and Nature", referring to the Three Pure Ones realms of Jade Purity, Upper Purity, and Great Purity respected by Taoism, and also referring to the three gods residing in the Three Pure Ones realms.
There was also a futon on the ground, covered with dust….
The main house is very big, with statues of gods in the front and living quarters in the back.
"Come and see, there is a coffin here." Zhang Yuan said.
When Lin Xiajin heard Zhang Yuan’s cry, she followed him to the back of the statue, where a red coffin was placed...
“Isn’t this a Taoist temple? Why is there a coffin behind the statue…” Lin Xiajin was puzzled…
"That's right! That's why I'm a little curious." Zhang Yuan said.
"Oh no! Let's leave here quickly!" Wang Han said with a frown.
"What's wrong?"
Wang Han was born into a family of tomb robbers, so he knows something about Feng Shui and metaphysics…
"This coffin is wrong. Look, the whole coffin is made of black gold! Usually, black and gold coffins are only used to suppress powerful evil spirits." Wang Han said with a frown.
Evil creatures? The zombies out there are evil enough…
"Putting it under the statue is also to use the statue to suppress evil."
"That shouldn't be the case..." Lin Xiajin said. She doesn't believe in ghosts or gods...
"It's recorded here in the book, but I've never seen it with my own eyes..."
"But I seem to have heard my grandfather say that this evil thing is very evil."
"Zombies!" Lin Xiajin said.
There seems to be no difference between zombies and undead, right?
"You can't say that. The horror of zombies is incomparable to that of zombies!" said Wang Han.
Although he had never seen zombies in person, the descriptions of them in books were very terrifying.
This apocalypse is so strange... Humans all over the world have turned into horrible zombies, and only a few people have survived...
"Let's go!" Wang Han continued. Although he had never seen zombies, he had been exposed to them since he was a child. It was better to believe in them than not to believe in them! "I'm going to take a look somewhere else!" Zhang Yuan said.
In fact, this large square courtyard is quite suitable for them to live in. There is also a backyard behind the Taoist temple, where the kitchen and bathroom are built.
The murals on the wall are all about Taoism…
There was also a cellar in the backyard, which contained a lot of corn cobs! Lin Xiajin collected all the corn cobs and could make them into cornmeal later, but she needed a machine to do that…
They saw nothing else and prepared to leave…
Lin Xiajin looked at the bronze statue of the Three Pure Ones and bowed devoutly, hoping that she would have smooth sailing and be safe in the future...
When Zhang Yuan and Ding Yunxuan saw this, they also followed suit and bowed, regardless of whether they believed it or not.
Just as a few people were about to leave the Taoist temple, they heard banging noises, like something hitting something violently.
"What's that sound?" Lin Xiajin asked.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Others also heard it, and following the sound, Lin Xiajin and the others came to the coffin again...
Bang Bang…
"The sound in the coffin... ? Did I hear it right?" Zhang Yuan stared at the coffin in disbelief.
There was no movement above, but the sound came from inside.
"Let's run!" Lin Xiajin thought of what Wang Han said.
"It's too late..." Wang Han said in a deep voice.
Just as Wang Han finished speaking, the coffin made a loud crash and the black and gold coffin board flew out.
Everyone quickly dodged and ran towards the backyard...
"What the hell is this!" Zhang Yuan couldn't help but say.
"It might really be a ghost." Ding Yunxuan swallowed.
This world has not only reached the end of the world, but has also become mysterious? A burst of dust dissipated, and a dried corpse in tattered clothes emerged from the coffin...
But his eyes were tightly closed, his fingernails were very long, his body was extremely stiff, and he was half sitting in the coffin...
"Hey...this isn't a zombie." Lin Xiajin frowned and looked at Wang Han.
Wang Han frowned slightly. He remembered that to become a zombie one needs a place of Nine Yin. The place of burial is a corpse-raising ground. The land conditions need to help the corpse absorb Yin energy. There must be a locust tree next to the burial place. After the corpse is buried, it also needs to absorb the essence of the moon...
But this zombie is obviously not one of them... or maybe there is a mistake in the book!
"Zombies and zombies are all the same! Just treat them as mutated zombies!" Zhang Yuan said from the side.
"Why do you think this mutant zombie is not easy to deal with?" Ding Yunxuan said silently.
The zombie's robe was not damaged. It was a cyan-blue robe, and the zombie was wearing a cyan hat...? There was a long whip behind him. They had seen so many zombies, but none of them had hair! "Zombies are the result of the resentment of heaven and earth, and are born from the dead air and bad luck of heaven and earth. They are immortal, immortal, and have been rejected by the three realms of heaven, earth, and man. They are outside the six paths of sentient beings, wandering without support, and displaced. Their bodies are stiff, and they use resentment as strength and blood as food in the human world."
Wang Han silently read the original words from the book….
But even after reading so much, Lin Xiajin and the others still didn’t understand!
This mutated zombie just sat there with his arms stretched out, motionless...
"Let's go out the back door! This thing is resurrecting from the dead..." Lin Xiajin said silently.
Everyone nodded immediately and walked towards the backyard with ease.
However, the backyard gate was still locked, so Lin Xiajin could only force it open.
