Gu Zhisang frowned slightly, "What level is that evil creature?"

Generally speaking, tombs have been buried underground for thousands of years, and the two most likely evil things to come out of them are: ghosts bound in the tomb and zombies.

Especially the latter.

The underground is a dark and damp place, which is most likely to harbor dirt and accumulate foul air, not to mention a tomb, a dangerous place that gathers evil and holds evil spirits.

If the location of the tomb is special Feng Shui, the corpse in the tomb will generally mutate due to the evil spirit after one or two hundred years, but these are the lowest level purple zombies.

Many people think that zombies are something very mysterious and hard to see, but in fact, the conditions for the formation of low-level purple zombies are not harsh, and they are unable to move or harm people. They are no different from ordinary corpses.

At best, the body is not easy to rot, and when the grave is dug up and directly contacted, it will be contaminated with some evil spirits.

Advanced zombies are rarely seen. The higher the level, the more difficult it is to form them, and the greater the threat.

Zheng Ruyu said with a serious expression, "It's a hairy zombie, but when our people tried to subdue it, they found that its movements were faster and more flexible than those of ordinary hairy zombies. When it was evading attacks, ordinary blazing fire talismans could not hurt it at all. I'm afraid it has already stepped half a step into the next stage of evolution!"

The so-called 'hairy zombie' is the fourth level of zombies.

After the purple zombies are the black and white zombies, which have some ability to move but are very slow, afraid of fire, livestock and sound, and pose almost no threat.

Later green zombies will grow green hair all over their bodies and move quickly. Apart from being afraid of sunlight, they are not afraid of fire and livestock, but instead like to suck blood.

Several decades ago, when the Xia Kingdom was first established, a green zombie haunted a certain village. It killed the chickens, cats and dogs in the village and sucked their blood, causing panic among the surrounding residents.

At that time, the authorities asked people from the Xuanmen sect to take action to resolve the problem. Until now, there are still legends left in that area.

After the green zombie is the hairy zombie, which has hair on its body and is invulnerable to swords and guns. Although ordinary fire and light cannot harm it, the "blazing fire talisman" used by the people in the spirit group in the tomb is not an ordinary item. It contains Taoist true fire, and ordinary evil spirits will be burned to ashes if they are contaminated by it.

Even the Taoist True Fire could hardly hurt that vicious creature, which meant that it was already evolving into a 'flying zombie'.

Flying zombies often need thousands of years to nurture. They are evil in nature and are extremely dangerous. Once they are born, they will inevitably cause chaos in a region.

No wonder the members of the spirit team in the tomb were so nervous that they had to seal off the tomb and inform their superiors.

Gu Zhisang was a little surprised. If she remembered correctly, the emperor's tomb was only about 600 years old, which was far from being able to raise flying zombies, so she asked more questions.

"The emperor is ruthless. When the imperial mausoleum was built, in order to prevent those skilled craftsmen from leaking the mechanisms and burial objects inside after leaving the tomb, the emperor wanted them to remain underground forever." Zheng Ruyu said helplessly:

"However, the emperor studied the art of longevity during his lifetime and was unwilling to enter the underworld to reincarnate. He did not succeed until he was old. So, with the advice and help of the Feng Shui master, he established the 'Mound of Life Sacrifice' technique above his tomb.

At the same time, in order to increase the evil spirit in the tomb and better nourish himself, he did not directly kill the craftsmen, but had the soldiers drive them to the more remote tomb chamber, take away all the tools, leave no supplies, and then have the chamber completely sealed..."

In this way, the craftsmen in the ear chamber would wait to die in despair.

In the first two days they were still able to shout, beg for mercy, curse, and try to dig open the ear cavity with their fingers, but it was of no use even though their nails were scratching them.

After the third day, they stopped eating and drinking, lost too much energy and were on the verge of death.

The extreme hunger and the sense of impending death caused them to start killing each other and eating each other.

Until the last person was dying, the entire ear chamber was filled with rotting, maggot-infested corpses and bones, and foul-smelling excrement everywhere.

He spent an unknown amount of time in this dark underground, eating human flesh and drinking human blood, and finally died with a tremendous hatred in his heart.

It was precisely because this hairy zombie had eaten humans in its previous life and had a grudge against himself in this place with such good feng shui that it took shape so quickly.

Hearing about such means, Gu Zhisang's dislike for the tomb owner instantly increased to eight points. She frowned and asked:

"According to what you said, the evil spirit in the underground tomb must be overwhelming. The tomb owner is located in a Feng Shui hole. Although there are corpses, they can also be raised. How can there be only one evil creature?"

Zheng Ruyu said: "This brings us back to the jade finger bone."

"I wonder if Miss Gu knows that in the history books and later historical records from 800 years ago, there was a record of a prince in the imperial dynasty at that time. Although he was never crowned as an emperor and was just an idle prince, he was well-known among the people because of his excellent poems and his contribution to the people's livelihood. He helped disaster victims many times during his lifetime.

The history books praised this king as "a man of great refinement and profoundness, and as kind as water."

There are not many records about this person in history.

According to research, this prince was weak and sickly since birth, but because he was the second son, of noble birth and with a good fate, he was quite loved by the emperor at that time.

When he was young, he was sent to a very famous Taoist temple at that time to recuperate for his illness and lived in the temple for nearly ten years.

Later, due to illness, he suffered from leg disease and was on the edge of the power struggle for his whole life. Finally, his brother ascended the throne, and he was treated better.

It stands to reason that such a member of the royal family has no research value and rarely appears in books. The reason why Zheng Ruyu and many people in the spiritual group know this person is because he has been recorded in the Xuanmen classics.

The Taoist temple where the sickly prince went out of the palace to recuperate was the Taoist temple of Junhong Taoist, the founder of Xuanmen.

The more Gu Zhisang listened, the more familiar it felt, and his expression gradually became a little strange, "So this finger bone?"

Zheng Ruyu: "From the golden scroll buried with the deceased, we know that this jade finger bone is his bone."

Gu Zhisang: ...

From Zheng Ruyu, she learned the origin of the jade finger bones.

According to the Feng Shui master who built the tomb, this idle king was struck by lightning when he was a guest in the Taoist temple of Master Junhong.

His legs were damaged by lightning, making him unable to walk. A hundred years after his death, the dynasty collapsed and his tomb was destroyed and pried open by tomb robbers during the war.

In the coffin in the tomb owner's chamber, the thieves found that the bones in the coffin were rotten, but only one finger was almost intact. After the tomb robbers destroyed the body, cut off the finger and scraped off the flesh, they obtained this finger bone that was as transparent as jade.

Because of the special identity of the tomb owner, who had lived with Taoist Junhong for a long time and had experienced bizarre experiences, it was rumored among the people and the royal family at that time that this finger bone had been tempered by heavenly thunder, and that if it was ground into a pill and swallowed, it would make one immortal, which triggered a scramble among people at that time.

In the end, the emperor at that time, who was also the owner of the imperial tomb, spent a large sum of money and obtained this finger bone from a wandering alchemist.

This emperor wanted to achieve immortality so much that he tried many "elixirs" but all ended in failure;

At that time, he had become a little crazy and asked a Feng Shui master to grind his finger bones to make an elixir.

However, the Feng Shui master said that the bone was an excellent Taoist magic tool that could eliminate evil spirits and dampness, and it was so hard that it could not be used to make elixirs.

After the emperor finally died, a Feng Shui master placed the jade finger bone on the chest of his corpse to purify the evil spirit. It was not until recently that it was excavated by an archaeological team.

Zheng Ruyu said: "What is certain is that this jade finger bone is indeed a very precious magic weapon. It can suppress the corpse of the tomb owner and prevent it from being raised into a very evil creature."

"After the archaeologists opened the coffin, they found that the body of the tomb owner had not been processed too much, but was very well preserved. The skin and flesh even had some elasticity. We have to believe that the finger bone played a role."

"But now both the jade finger bone and the hairy zombie have been stolen!"

Gu Zhisang asked seriously, "Do you know who did it?"

Zheng Ruyu said: "It was not clear at the beginning. The jade finger bone was kept by a special person. That night, the professor in the tomb was still studying the small words on it and deciphering the contents at the back of the Golden Thread Book. Suddenly, the bandit broke in and took the finger bone away, and injured the professor."

As she spoke, a trace of anger appeared on the woman's face:

"The old professor is already over 70 years old. He is a leader in the field of archaeology and is very knowledgeable. The thief was just trying to grab something, but he actually used his internal force to hit the professor's abdomen, causing him to bleed profusely on the spot!"

Although he was rescued, it was still an unexpected disaster for the old man.

The ability to have inner strength shows that this person is not an ordinary person, but a hermit.

That night, people around the tomb were shocked and angry because precious burial objects were taken away and the old professor was seriously injured. They never expected that something bad would happen again just a few hours later.

Zheng Ruyu continued, "Our team members who were guarding the tomb were attacked in the early morning and were all seriously injured. The thief opened the seal and released the hairy zombies. If other companions nearby hadn't heard the noise and rushed over in time, this team member would have been in trouble."

"When he was rescued by his companions, there was a row of teeth marks on his neck that were tainted with corpse poison! That thief actually let the hairy zombie suck his blood on purpose!"

Gu Zhisang's eyes turned cold, "He probably wants to keep the zombies alive."

"Yes, we thought so too." Zheng Ruyu said, "Then at noon today, the abbot of Huicheng Temple suddenly issued a wanted order to the outside world. Today, someone controlled a hairy zombie to break into Huicheng Temple, injured the monks in the temple, and took away the relics of Master Fang Ji of Huicheng Temple!"

"And you should know about the thief Miss Gu who is wanted by Huicheng Temple."

Gu Zhisang:?

"Who is it?"

Zheng Ruyu said, "Miss Gu, do you remember that a month ago, when you first participated in the variety show "Spiritual Matters", you helped the eldest grandson of the Gao family in Yuncheng break the two evil formations in the old house."

Gu Zhisang raised his eyebrows slightly: "Gao Zhi? I remember."

She is still in contact with Gao Zhi, and most of the time he sends her messages asking how she is.

She heard that there was a fierce fight within the Gaoshi Group this month. After the actions of Gao Zhi's uncle were exposed, many old people within the group could not accept it.

In addition, there were already turbulent times within the large group, and many people had long been enemies with Uncle Gao Zhi. Taking this opportunity, they helped Gao Zhi get back the shares left to him by Grandpa Gao, allowing Gao Zhi to successfully enter the Gao Group.

Thinking of something, Gu Zhisang frowned and said, "Could the thief and the wounder be the Feng Shui master who set up the formation for the Gao family?"

Zheng Ruyu nodded and said, "That's him!"

"This person is a Feng Shui master who came to the mainland from Hong Kong Province ten years ago. He was very famous in Hong Kong Province at that time. He looked at Feng Shui and created formations for many dignitaries.

I have heard of him, but because he is from a special region and he appeared to be quite law-abiding when he was on the mainland, I didn't expect that he was the one who not only set up the evil formation, but also stole the jade finger bone, kidnapped the hairy zombie, and robbed the temple's treasures! He is so arrogant!"

"And after our investigation, we found out that this person is actually the descendant of the Feng Shui master who built the imperial mausoleum for the tomb owner. No wonder he knows what burial objects are in the tomb and can avoid the mechanisms in the tomb."

With the hairy zombie, jade finger bones, and Buddhist relics, Gu Zhisang had some vague ideas while he was deep in thought.

This Feng Shui master must be trying to refine something extremely evil and sinister!

Zheng Ruyu looked exhausted and smiled bitterly, "The relic he stole is a treasure of Huicheng Temple. A hundred years ago, there was a great monk in Huicheng Temple, named Fangji, who almost achieved a golden body. After he passed away, he left behind three relics of his body, namely bones, hair, and flesh."

Bone relics are the condensation of Buddha's bones, and are white in color; hair relics are black in color; and flesh relics are the condensation of Buddha's flesh and blood, and are red in color.

Each relic is extremely precious and can ward off disasters, offset mistakes, etc.

And what the Feng Shui master took away was the flesh relic that embodied the power of the living Buddha’s ancient magic!

Zheng Ruyu said: "Originally, this tomb was excavated by the state, and the burial objects and evil objects dug out from the tomb should be handled by the state. But now that the jade finger bones and hairy zombies have been taken away, the masters of Huicheng Temple have also issued a wanted order to all the scholars outside the world. This matter is no longer under the sole control of the Spirit Group, and anyone in the Xuanmen can get involved."

The reason why she came to find Gu Zhisang was because neither the Spirit Group nor the official authorities wanted Xuanmen to get these two items.

At this time they thought of Gu Zhisang.

After thinking for a moment, Gu Zhisang said, "I can capture that person and get the things back to you, but I want a reward."

"I want the jade finger bone. If you agree, I will bring you the human, the hairy zombie, and the relic."

Zheng Ruyu frowned slightly: "This... I need to ask my superiors for instructions."

Suddenly she paused and her expression gradually became solemn.

It turned out that before she came to talk to Gu Zhisang, she had actually turned on the communicator, and the superior on the other side could hear her conversation with Gu Zhisang.

When Zheng Ruyu heard Gu Zhisang's request, he felt that his superior would never agree to it.

Because the jade finger bone has high research value.

But just now, the superior's voice suddenly sounded from the headset: "Promise her. We just received news that Mao Jiang appeared in Hunan Province in the afternoon, and boys, girls and children disappeared along the way!"

"If she can ensure the safety of the missing people and prevent the Mao Jiang from falling into the hands of the Xuanmen, we can agree to her request."

For the government, the safety of the people is the most important thing;

Moreover, if the people from Xuanmen were allowed to go ahead, there would be absolutely nothing left.

Zheng Ruyu's heart trembled. She didn't expect the thief to move so quickly!

Not only has it fled to other provinces, it has also captured so many ordinary people. If we had known earlier, the hairy zombies would suck blood!

Zheng Ruyu relayed his superior's words to Gu Zhisang, and Gu Zhisang nodded in agreement.

She knew the urgency of the matter and said, "I'll go upstairs and get something, and then we'll leave right away."

"Wait." Zheng Ruyu called her, "Miss Gu, can I ask why you want that finger bone?"

After a moment of silence, Gu Zhisang made up an excuse: "It looks good to me, so I'll take it and see if it can help with my practice."

The system in my mind said, "...Really, Sangsang, I feel like you are fooling me."

After a long while, Gu Zhisang finally responded.

"Yes, it belongs to an old friend."
