Chapter 401 Neither alive nor dead
Lin Qingzhu?
Cui Heng frowned when he heard the name. He thought of the scene he had seen in the Juntian Palace on the Nether Sea Star.
That was a shrine full of memorial tablets.
One of the memorial tablets read "Tomb of beloved wife Lin Qingzhu".
Is this Zhou Juntian's wife during the Daoyi Sect period?
How could she be in heaven?
Tang Quan and Xu Xun on the side were also stunned.
Isn't this the Plague Department Supreme of the ancient heaven?
How did she become the so-called Lin Qingzhu of Daoyi Sect?
What kind of power is Daoyi Sect?
At this time, the woman in white who called herself Lin Qingzhu fell into a state of near madness again.
She grabbed her hair and rubbed it randomly, then suddenly stood up, and thick gray-black smoke came out of her body again. She was about to rush up to the sky, as if she wanted to escape from here, far away from here.
But as soon as she left the ground, the golden chain that had been unlocked appeared again out of thin air, tied her up tightly, and restricted all her movements.
"Be patient." Cui Heng's gentle voice rang out, and the golden chain dissipated, but the woman in white did not continue to escape, but just stood there in a daze, motionless.
"Sir, her condition is a little strange." Hui Shi said on the side, "When I used your decree to suppress her earlier, I didn't sense any spiritual power at all, but she was still able to move and speak."
"She really has no spiritual power." Cui Heng nodded lightly, slowly walked to the front of the woman in white, and said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, we don't mean to hurt you, nor do we mean to harm you."
His voice seemed full of charm and contained extremely strong appeal. Even a stubborn stone without a life force could be touched by this voice and feel like a spirit.
The woman in white was obviously also affected by this voice. She gradually calmed down, and the power fluctuations of the whole "person" also tended to be stable.
"I, I am innocent..." The woman in white suddenly spoke again, her voice lacked the madness and unwillingness, but contained more grievance and confusion.
This time, Cui Heng did not respond to her, but raised his hand and slowly lifted her hair covering her face, allowing her eyes to see the light of day again.
The woman in white, whose face was originally covered by long hair, finally revealed her face.
It was a pale face that was bloodless and a little stiff, but the facial features were extremely delicate, the eyebrows were picturesque, and the lines were soft, as if she was a peerless beauty who grew up in the water town of Jiangnan.
But such a beautiful face did not have a single bit of life or vitality.
Moreover, although her eyes were open, they were lifeless, dull and extremely empty, just like the pupils of a person who died with his eyes open.
Anyone who took a look at her would know that this must be a dead person, a corpse.
If placed in front of an ordinary person, just this look alone would be enough to scare the soul out of the person.
Cui Heng looked at her calmly, and after a quick look, he nodded slightly and said: "Not only is her soul gone, but even the most basic true spirit is gone. She is now just a flesh and blood shell.
"But this shell has undergone some changes in the long years, and has become a dead body that can move independently, seemingly neither alive nor dead. Perhaps it can also be called a zombie."
"Zombie? "Hui Shi was surprised when he heard this, "Sir, a strong man of this level will actually turn into a zombie after death?!"
Generally speaking, the body of a human immortal will not decay after death. Even after a long time, it will only turn into dust and will not transform into a zombie.
"Under normal circumstances, it shouldn't happen." Cui Heng shook his head lightly, "but the tomb where she was buried is filled with many crystals containing alien power.
"These alien powers can transform living beings and make the dead move and become weapons. Putting so many alien crystals in the target is most likely to turn her body into a zombie."
"Senior, this is unlikely." Tang Quan, who was standing aside, couldn't help but say, "The Supreme of the Plague Department was rehabilitated by the Lord of Heaven and buried by his own hands. Why would he want to cultivate her body into a zombie?"
"Why not?" Cui Heng asked back.
"That's the Lord of Heaven!" Tang Quan answered subconsciously.
But soon he found that he seemed to have fallen into a misunderstanding, that is, he thought that the Lord of Heaven would definitely not be detrimental to the heavens, nor would he weaken the power of the heavens for no reason.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly apologized to Cui Heng and bowed, saying, "Senior, I was wrong just now. Even the Lord of Heaven may not be able to consider everything."
If he could really consider everything, the Heaven would not be in such a state now.
"Well." Cui Heng nodded lightly, "It is unknown what the purpose of the original arrangement of the tomb was, but her body became a zombie, which should be related to those crystals containing alien power."
At this point, he looked at the woman in white again and asked in a deep voice, "Do you still remember what you have experienced and why you have become like this now?"
Cui Heng was not sure whether she could answer these questions.
After all, the woman in white is now in a zombie state. The soul and true spirit in her body have long disappeared. The vague consciousness now is just the unique perception ability of the zombie body.
Through the traces on her body and the faint sense of her soul, she can indeed obtain some information about her life before her death, but the amount obtained is extremely limited.
It is even possible that she can only say two names.
After hearing Cui Heng's question, the woman in white stood there for a long time, as if she was trying her best to think.
After a long time, she slowly opened her mouth and whispered in a low voice: "The powerful people from all over the world have come to slaughter the Dao Sect... I was framed, I am innocent, I am not wrong!"
It was still a vague clue.
"It looks like, if we really want to find a breakthrough in the information on her, we still have to let her recover more memories."
Cui Heng said to himself, "It would be best to find her soul, or take her to the Juntian Palace on the Minghai Star to see if she can remember more information there."
Thinking of this, he said to Hui Shi: "Go find Nanxun and come back, let her stay with this person first, and keep an eye on her changes in condition."
"Yes!" Hui Shi immediately said goodbye and left after hearing this, and went to Huangtian Sect to find Zheng Nanxun.
"Sit down first." Cui Heng looked at the woman in white and said in a gentle voice.
This kind of infectious voice can make the woman in white act accordingly. After listening to it, she found a place to sit down nearby.
Sitting there quietly, lowering her head and not saying a word, she looked very well-behaved.
"What are you two doing here?" Cui Heng looked at Tang Quan and Xu Xun on the side again, "You two have high cultivation bases, so you must not be here for nothing."
