The images and poems at the beginning are similar to the preface to the book, which mainly express the psychological state of Xuanjun when he created this book.

Next is the first chapter, written in large characters, about the great deeds of the Yellow Emperor.

Yellow Emperor?

As a native of China, Qin Zhibo is quite familiar with this person.

Huangdi, surnamed Gongsun and given name Xuanyuan, is regarded as the "first ancestor of humanities" and one of the ancestors of Chinese civilization.

As a Chinese, Xuanjun probably lived in the Eastern Han Dynasty in the second century AD, so it is normal for him to praise his ancestors' great achievements first.

But just when Qin Zhibo was thinking this, a picture appeared in his mind, and a messenger in a yellow robe appeared leisurely.

The tall and towering figure exudes a strong sense of weirdness, and the ragged yellow robe moves without wind.

That pale mask was covered under the low-hanging hood, hiding a face that was not of this world...

this……

Where is the Yellow Emperor here?

This is clearly the King in Yellow!

Qin Zhibo's pupils trembled and his eyes were filled with incredulity.

It was the last time since I last saw the King in Yellow...

Now seeing this familiar image again is still thrilling.

I saw the body in yellow robes standing quietly on the grassland under the night sky. There were stars in the sky, and the dark stars were extremely bright.

A group of people wearing coarse fabrics were kneeling on the ground from a distance, not even daring to raise their heads.

The leader, a man, knelt on his knees in front of the King in Yellow, seeming to be praying devoutly.

The screen flickered, and the King in Yellow raised his hand slightly, and some tiny tentacles emerged from the wide and dark cuffs.

These tiny tentacles burrow into a man's nostrils, ear holes, mouth, eyes like loaches...

The screen flickered again. The man was already bleeding from seven holes. Several tiny hands came out of the holes and rubbed the wrinkled skin lubricated by the blood.

At this time, explanatory ancient texts appeared again on the right side of the screen.

It turns out that these scenes are of the ancient Xuanyuan tribe conducting sacrificial rituals within the tribe.

Most of the ancient tribes at that time worshiped gods, including the Chiyou clan and the Jiuli clan who were opposed to the Xuanyuan clan.

The god Xuanyuan worships is called "Yellow Emperor".

"Yellow Emperor" is a supreme heavenly god who will come from the "Heavenly Palace" all the way in response to the calls of sacrifices and believers.

Every time he comes, the "Yellow Emperor" will take the lives of the sacrifices, but he will also leave behind some great knowledge and inventions.

For example, the yellow mark helps tribes communicate over long distances.

There are also spells and elixirs that can help the dead resurrect.

Among them, the talisman that helps the dead to resurrect is called the "Xiansha Soul Resurrection Basket", which is divided into two parts: the talisman and the curse.

Talisman: Mix cinnabar, black salt, and rock salt on yellow paper, and write the edict on it: the sun and the moon penetrate the spiritual sand.

Curse: Three souls and seven souls will return to their senses and turn into infants. Ascend to the supreme position and come to Qianling. The three souls are on the left and the seven souls are on the right. Listen quietly to God's orders, but you can't notice. No one can see you when you are walking, and no one knows when you are sitting.

Hurry like a law!

To truly achieve the resurrection of the dead, several conditions are needed.

Complete souls, complete corpses, and animals were used as sacrifices.

In addition, the "fairy sand" extracted from human corpses can be fed to the corpse and the caster, which greatly improves the success rate of spell casting.

Once the resurrection of the dead is successful, the corpse will be resurrected as an adult and have a second life.

However, if it fails, the corpse will turn into a walking corpse and become a "living zombie".

The spell can also be reversed, turning the corpse into a ghoul...

Qin Zhibo was shocked after reading the first chapter.

Is this how "Yellow Emperor" came about?

Xuanjun was from the Eastern Han Dynasty, so he certainly had no contact with figures from the ancient Chinese period, and there is no way to conduct research.

Maybe he made up this history just to make future generations believe in him.

It is easier for people to believe something if it is true or false, true or false.

But is this "Immortal Sand Soul Returning Basket" real?

At this time, Qin Zhibo was a little helpless. If he had known about the existence of such a spell, he would not have had to sneak into Kunyang and ask Satogua face to face about the resurrection spell.

However, this can also prove that "gods" do have the ability to resurrect humans.

No, it's the Old Ones...

Entering the second chapter, there is content that Qin Zhibo is more familiar with - corpse-eating rituals and ghouls.

Xuanjun first described the existence of ghouls in a classical Chinese passage.

He defined ghouls as human beings, but as "human beings who do not age and die of old age."

Ghouls will steal corpses, divide and eat them, and fill their bodies with blood. They use this practice to achieve immortality.

Xuanjun was wrong about this. It is only instinct for ghouls to eat corpses, and they are not limited to eating human corpses.

From an ecological perspective, ghouls are more like "decomposers".

However, just like the first chapter, Xuanjun introduced two more ghoul-related spells.

One is a manifesting talisman, which can sense the presence of ghouls in the crowd and forcefully instill a language that the ghouls can understand into their brains.

Curse: Zhu Geng was ordered to visit the Emperor of God

Talisman: The ghosts are in front, obeying the talisman to listen to the orders. The two qi of yin and yang are currently being followed. The corpse has yin and yang, which harmonizes with the ghosts and spirits. Listen to my words, and the divine soldiers are as fast as the law and order.

The exorcism talisman is used in conjunction with the manifestation talisman.

The effect is to disperse the surrounding ghouls and clearly identify the ghoul lairs near the cemetery and century-old houses.

The magic is a kind of blood brewing method, which has the effect of prolonging life and strengthening the body.

It can be brewed by using blood that has been separated from the body for less than an hour and the secretion of Black Tai Sui as medicinal ingredients, adding various medicinal materials, and using magic to catalyze fermentation.

But the trade-off is that the more blood brew you drink, the more afraid you will be of the sun, and may even develop the urge to suck blood.

Forehead……

Has this turned into a vampire?

Qin Zhibo glanced at the contents of this chapter and found that the most useful ones were the talismans.

But this is not very useful to me who has already made friends with ghouls.

The next two chapters introduce "Heavenly Ghosts" and "Earthly Ghosts" respectively.

The Heavenly Ghost is a creature under the throne of the Yellow Emperor. It looks like a crow, a rat, a nymph, and a corpse. It is a creature that can fly into the sky.

As long as you first pay homage to the Yellow Emperor and get his permission, you can use a special whistle called "Ji whistle" to summon the ghosts in the night sky when Aldebaran rises above the horizon.

With the blessing of the heavenly ghosts and the addition of "Emperor Flow Serum", humans can go to the "Heavenly Palace".

The incantation in this chapter is the "Inviting Emperor Technique", a spell that can summon the "Yellow Emperor" to come.

As well as the production methods of "Ji Shao" and "Emperor's Liquid".

The other "earth ghost", also known as "Jiao", is actually a giant earthworm-like creature with a group of tentacles in front of it.

When a local ghost appears, obvious ground vibrations can be felt for several kilometers.

Moreover, earth ghosts occasionally cast spells to control humans. In this case, another person can put a small amount of water on the face of the controlled person to wake him up.

Use "Di Gang Kao Zhao Lu" to summon it.

After reading these two chapters, Qin Zhibo remembered that he had seen descriptions of these two animals in "The Secret of Worms" before.

The sky ghost, named Bayaki, is an interstellar creature that can carry people flying.

Bayaki does not live on earth. Only by blowing a special whistle on a specific night can Bayaki be summoned from outer space.

Since the environment in outer space is not suitable for humans, if you want to fly into the sky, you need "golden honey wine" to assist you.

Earth ghosts, on the other hand, are earth-burrowing demonic insects.

The earth-boring devil insect is a creature that lives in the earth's crust. It is a huge gray-black bag-shaped creature. The front tentacles make it look like an oversized squid.

Earth-boring bugs spend most of their time underground in ultra-high temperatures, and only occasionally appear on the surface.

The largest individual among the Earth-boring Demonic Insects is also the supreme leader of the Ketonians, named "Sude Mel".

It is about a mile in length, and its huge destructive power can easily destroy a small city. It is also ranked among the Old Ones.

However, Qin Zhibo guessed that the Earth-Drilling Demonic Insect should have a weakness, that is, it is afraid of water.

Because my prop [fireproof suit] is made of Ketonian leather, which is fireproof but not waterproof.
