Chapter 487 Zombie Mining
Lu Chengyun's voice was very light, but Mo Hua still heard it.
It's not uncommon to find someone to feed the map. Zhang Quan had done it when he was in the zombie village.
But Lu Chengyun's smile was too gloomy, which made Mo Hua very suspicious.
If it was just a general killing to feed the map, it shouldn't be a big deal for Lu Chengyun. His expression should also be indifferent, not showing the expression he has now.
Mo Hua touched his chin.
Find someone to feed the map?
Who is he looking for?
"Mine cultivator? Corpse cultivator?"
"Zhang Quan, and... me?"
Mo Hua was shocked.
Thinking about it this way, it seems to make sense.
Every evil spirit that jumped into his sea of consciousness said that his spiritual consciousness was a tonic, and it was naturally more suitable to use it to feed the visualization map.
Could it be that this Lu Chengyun had bad intentions from the beginning?
Mo Hua pondered in his heart.
Although it was just his own guess, he couldn't help but be on guard...
After Lu Chengyun's consciousness recovered, he drew the Lingshu evil formation again. At the hour of Mao, he sealed the bronze coffin and left.
After Lu Chengyun left, Mo Hua waited for another cup of tea to confirm that Lu Chengyun had left and would not come back in a short time. Then he quietly left the altar and came to the bronze coffin.
The bronze coffin was sealed again.
Mo Hua walked around the coffin, knocking and hitting, but still couldn't figure out how to open and close the coffin.
He felt a little regretful.
When Lu Chengyun came, he didn't notice how he opened the coffin.
When he left, he forgot to see how he sealed the coffin.
Now that he can't open the bronze coffin, he can't figure out the secret inside.
"Let's talk about it next time..."
Mo Hua muttered silently, and then quietly left the Ten Thousand Corpses Altar.
After returning to the room, Mo Hua immediately jumped onto the bed, sat cross-legged in meditation, and his consciousness sank into the sea of consciousness.
In the sea of consciousness, there was a void of white.
In the void white, there is a golden lock array, which locks a wisp of green smoke.
It is the mind body left after the Iron Corpse Elder was killed.
Mo Hua hurriedly manifested the Molten Fire Array, roasted the green smoke bit by bit, burned it bit by bit, refined it into pure divine thoughts, and inhaled it into his mouth.
Just "roast" and eat it.
Until the green smoke is roasted and swallowed.
Some bloodthirsty, greedy and evil thoughts emerged in Mo Hua's mind.
Mo Hua was very familiar with it, meditating and sitting in meditation, his mind was like a mirror, spotless, and he discarded these distracting thoughts and evil desires one by one.
The evil thoughts were gone, and a pure divine thought poured into Mo Hua's sea of consciousness.
Mo Hua's divine consciousness was strengthened a little bit.
This little enhancement made Mo Hua's divine consciousness go one step further on the peak of the twelve patterns, infinitely close to the thirteen patterns, but it was still a little short...
Mo Hua opened his eyes and sighed.
It's so hard to increase the consciousness.
He "ate" another foundation-building consciousness, but he still couldn't increase his consciousness to thirteen patterns.
Could it be that this foundation-building consciousness is too weak?
After being refined by himself again, the remaining consciousness is less, so it can't be "eaten" enough?
Mo Hua blinked.
Could it be that he must "eat" Zhang Quan's ancestors to make his consciousness reach thirteen patterns?
But how to eat?
Mo Hua's eyes turned, and he began to think of bad things again...
Zhang Quan's ancestor painting was collected by Lu Chengyun and regarded as a treasure. It was not so easy for him to get his hands on it...
Then he could only think of a way.
He might want to feed me the painting...
Mo Hua lay on the bed, with his legs crossed, thinking carefully...
As he thought about it, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have not communicated with his junior sister for a long time.
Some things need to be told to the junior sister and junior brother in advance.
Mo Hua got up quickly, took out a piece of paper, and spread it on the table.
Then he began to write down some key clues.
For example, Lu Chengyun's relationship in the Lu family.
The transaction between Lu Chengyun and the ancestor of the Lu family.
The ancestor of the Lu family was refined into a corpse.
Some situations of the Ten Thousand Corpses Formation... etc.
...
Mo Hua put the note away. At night, he quietly found the little tiger and stuffed the note into the little tiger's mouth, letting it crawl out and hand the letter to the little senior sister.
The next day, the little tiger crawled back with another note in its mouth.
This paper was white and delicate, with a light gold-plated pattern. It was often used by the little senior sister. Mo Hua knew it at a glance.
If there was a note coming back, it meant that the little tiger's letter had been delivered.
Mo Hua nodded, opened the note, and wanted to see what the little senior sister wrote.
But after opening the note, he found that there were only four simple words on it:
"Not coming back yet?"
There was also a little face painted behind it, frowning slightly.
Mo Hua was stunned.
He then realized that he had been in the corpse mine for quite some time without realizing it.
Junior Sister and Junior Brother must be concerned about him, so they are a little anxious.
Master and Master Kui... should not be anxious.
After all, Master is good at predicting, and he probably knows everything he does.
I just don't know how their food is when I'm not here.
Is there anyone making tea for Master, is there anyone frying pine nuts for Master Kui...
And Dabai, I don't know if Junior Brother feeds it good grass.
And Instructor Yan...
...
Mo Hua thought about it and suddenly missed Master and the others. He also felt that it was time for him to think of a way to leave the corpse mine as soon as possible.
And Lu Chengyun was gentle and elegant on the surface, but he was actually a ruthless person. Although he was polite to me, I guess he had bad intentions.
It would be better to get out of here as soon as possible, and not play with him anymore.
Mo Hua wrote back a note, which read:
"It's almost there!"
A little tiger's head was drawn on the back, with a tiger-like head.
Mo Hua used his spiritual sense to guide the little tiger to deliver the letter.
Then he began to think about what he should do before going back.
The Ten Thousand Corpse Formation, the bronze coffin, the corpse mine...
These must be destroyed, otherwise there will be endless disasters.
The corpse cultivators in the corpse mine, who killed people and refined corpses, must also be eradicated.
And the zombies inside must also be properly handled, and it is best to burn them all, so that they don't devour flesh and blood, and the corpse poison spreads, poisoning Nanyue City...
"But how many zombies are there in this corpse mine?"
Mo Hua only knew that there were a lot of them, but he couldn't really count them.
The ones in the stone hall, including those in the Ten Thousand Corpse Formation, should be only a part of them.
The Corpse Mine is larger than the Zombie Village, and the formation inside is more complicated than the Zombie Village. With Lu Chengyun watching, he was restricted and could not explore many places.
And there are mines outside the Corpse Mine, and there may be even more zombies in the mines...
Know yourself and know your enemy.
If you don't find out how many zombies there are, you can't do it.
Even if you are a foundation-building cultivator, if you are surrounded by hundreds of zombies, if you can't escape, you will definitely die.
What's more, there are many iron corpses in the Corpse Mine.
Even if the Dao Court mobilizes Dao soldiers to suppress the Corpse Mine, it is difficult to dispatch without knowing the inside story.
Mo Hua thought about it and decided to go to the mine outside first.
Outside the Stone Hall is the mine, separated by a gate.
On this gate, there is a bloody evil formation.
At the same time, there is also a key.
This key was discovered by Mo Hua later.
The key is made of bones and is placed on a corpse cultivator who is guarding the gate.
As for the formation, Mo Hua couldn't move for the time being, because he was afraid of alerting Lu Chengyun, but the key could be stolen.
Mo Hua took advantage of the time when the corpse cultivator who was guarding the door was concentrating on refining corpses and couldn't be distracted, and controlled the little tiger to steal his key, and then secretly used the key to open the door of the stone hall.
Outside the door was the mine.
It was dark, damp, gloomy, and the corpse gas was extremely heavy, but it was also very noisy.
Mo Hua walked out of the stone hall and walked along the mine for a while, and then came to a huge mine pit.
It was the same as Mo Hua guessed, but it was a little different.
The zombies were indeed mining, but there were too many zombies mining...
The mine pit was extremely wide, and it was densely packed with zombies.
They were ragged, their skin was rotten, and one by one, they all held pickaxes and mined in it!
They were dead people, but they were doing the work of living people.
Most of them were miners in their lifetime. After they died, they were refined into corpses, but they were still miners, even busier and more tireless than when they were alive.
Countless zombies are mining...
This noisy scene is like the human world and the underworld.
The monks in the mine are alive, but they are forced by life to be numb like zombies.
The zombies in the mine are dead, but they are enslaved by the Lu family and work like living people.
For a while, the miners worked during the day and the zombies mined at night. The two scenes overlapped in Mo Hua's mind, confusing and seeming true and false.
He couldn't tell what was real.
Mo Hua was shocked and stunned for a long time.
At that moment, he seemed to have an inexplicable understanding of life and death in this world and the lowest level of "human" way.
At the same time, another thorny fact was placed in front of Mo Hua.
There are too many zombies in this corpse mine!
In this huge pit, at a glance, there are tens of thousands of zombies.
According to the formations around, this mine is even bigger than he imagined, which means that there are many pits in this mine.
In each pit, there are countless zombies...
Mo Hua's scalp numbs just thinking about it.
If these zombies rush out of the corpse mine and form a corpse tide, and then infect with corpse poison, I am afraid that not only Nanyue City will be destroyed, but even the entire Xiaohuangzhou world will probably be devastated.
Xiaohuangzhou world will also become a Xiaohuang "corpse" world.
Mo Hua didn't read it any more.
Time is running out, so he sneaked back again.
The gate leading to the outside is a natural boulder, guarded by two second-grade iron corpses, and surrounded by thick mountain walls.
In a short time, he couldn't get away, so he could only go back first and make a long-term plan.
When Mo Hua went back, the corpse cultivator who was guarding the gate had not finished refining the corpse.
Mo Hua controlled the little tiger again, returned the key, and then returned to the room, frowning and thinking.
This corpse mine is bigger than he thought.
There are more zombies in the mine than he thought.
There are so many zombies, what about the iron corpses?
How many iron corpses are there?
In the Ten Thousand Corpses Formation, Mo Hua counted and found that there are about twenty-four iron coffins.
That means there are twenty-four iron corpses.
In the stone hall, some secret rooms also have the breath of iron corpses. Mo Hua roughly estimated that there are seven or eight.
There are also some iron corpses in the mine outside.
So, there are at least more than forty iron corpses in the whole corpse mine?
Among the iron corpses, there are a mixture of first and second grades. The first grade is slightly weaker, which can be considered a weak foundation building, and the second grade is much stronger, which can be considered a middle stage of foundation building.
Adding them together, there are nearly forty foundation building?
Mo Hua felt a chill in his heart.
With over forty foundation-building cultivators, they are the most powerful forces not only in Nanyue City but also in the entire Xiaohuangzhou Realm...
This strength is enough to look down upon the entire second-grade state realm...
Then Mo Hua was slightly stunned and a little confused.
Where did Lu Chengyun get the corpses to refine so many iron corpses?
To refine iron corpses, at least the corpses of cultivators at the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining and the foundation-building period are required.
Considering the success rate of corpse refining, the corpses required for refining iron corpses will only be more.
The corpses of cultivators at the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining are okay, but where did he get the corpses of foundation-building cultivators?
Even if he killed them, he couldn't kill so many...
Where did he get so many foundation-building corpses?
Mo Hua suddenly thought of the ancestor of the Lu family.
In the spiritual axis sequence of the Ten Thousand Corpses Formation, the ancestor of the Lu family is the "corpse king", with the highest sequence.
The corpse king needs to command the corpses.
Therefore, the corpse of the corpse king is very particular. It is either the head of the sect, the head of the family, or the head of the country...
Those who are under its control are either the disciples of the sect, the disciples of the family, or the people of a country.
The ancestor of the Lu family is the "corpse king".
According to the principle of corpse refining, the one who submits to it should be...the Lu family cultivator?
It is unlikely to be a mining cultivator...
Among the mining cultivators, there are almost no foundation-building cultivators.
Although the mining cultivators are exploited by the ancestor of the Lu family, most of them have resentment in their hearts. After death, the resentment does not dissipate. It is easy to get out of control if they are refined into zombies and made to submit to the ancestor of the Lu family.
It can only be the Lu family...
Most of these iron corpses are made of the corpses of Lu family cultivators, or in other words, the elders of the Lu family?
But Lu Chengyun is the head of the family. It's okay for him to kill one or two elders, but killing so many elders will definitely cause problems and will also be suspected by the Lu family.
He will not do such a thing as cutting off his own foundation.
So where did these corpses come from?
The corpse of the elder...
Mo Hua frowned.
Suddenly he thought of something and was shocked:
"This Lu Chengyun, will he dig up the ancestral grave of the Lu family..."
