As soon as the door was opened, the one that appeared in front of me was a female Qing Dynasty corpse. Her face was purple and blue, her fingers and nails were slender and sharp, her eyes were rolled up, and her tiger teeth and fangs were very long, which looked like a typical purple zombie.

In addition, there was a huge iron ball tied to her feet. It seemed that she should have been a prisoner imprisoned before she died.

This kind of evil corpse has no power. As soon as Liang Houzai's evil-proof talisman was pressed against her forehead, she became soft and then collapsed on the ground, and her body began to rot rapidly.

But when the female corpse fell down, the scene behind her made us stunned.

Looking out from the door, under the moonlight, all the zombies at the edges were beyond my sight. I looked at them roughly and saw that these zombies were all purple zombies.

It is indeed not difficult to deal with purple zombies, but such a number is really shocking. Hu Nanqian said before that there were only a hundred evil corpses in Wang Ermazi's ancestral home, but now we only see more than this number.

When we opened the door, these zombies probably smelled our anger and became restless one by one. They walked significantly faster than before. A zombie had arrived at the door of the house. Liang Houzai threw out an evil-proof talisman and was instantly stunned.

Liang Houzai looked at the two falling purple slags, looked out the door, and immediately ran to the kang to pull the light rope, and turned off the lights in the room.

As soon as the lights went out, I noticed that the zombies outside seemed to have become a little slower. Not only did they slow down significantly, they seemed to have lost their direction. Many of them just walked towards us turned around the moment they turned off the lights and hit other zombies.

Liang Houzai ran back and said to me, "Brother Dao, these purple zombies seem to be attracting light."

After hearing what he said, I realized that at two or three in the morning, every household in the village turned off the lights. The only place with light was probably our room.

The reason why they were restless just now seemed not because they felt angry, but because the light became clearer when we opened the door.

But this is the first time I have heard of zombies seeking sight. I don’t know if purple zombies have this characteristic.

Liu Shangang took my shoes over. I put them on, and took them out of the house and ran straight towards the small mound about twenty meters away from the fence wall. On the way, there were occasional Zi Zang making trouble, and Liang Houzai was suppressed with spiritual talismans.

After climbing the mound, I realized that the outside of the village was surrounded by purple zombies, and the number of these zombies was almost incalculable. They were spread like dense ants in the fields, mounds, and gullies outside the village.

I saw that there were many holes on the land, and the diameter of the hole was just enough to accommodate an adult through it. These zombies seemed to crawl out of the ground.

This area within a radius of ten miles of the village seems to be a corpse-raising site with a huge coverage area.

It's strange that there were so many zombies outside the village who were acting together, causing great noise, but the villagers seemed to be unable to hear it at all. Every household was closed. I looked at the village and no one turned on the lights.

When a normal person hears a strange noise near the village, he will definitely get up and take a look.

The villagers' reaction seemed to prove that they knew what the sound came from.

At this time, Liang Houzai said to me with concern: "There are too many zombies, and there are not enough evil-proof talismans."

I looked down the hill, and no zombies approached us at this time. Since the lights in the house went out, they began to wander around the village aimlessly, and seemed to have no interest in us, the living people.

I said to Liang Houzai: "It's okay, I guess I won't be able to use it for a while. These zombies are not interested in us."

Liang Houzai also looked down at the foot of the mountain for a while, then turned around and asked me: "What should I do now? Are these zombie towns or not?"

I thought about it and said, "Wait and see, if they are still active in the village when the sun comes out, they must be kept in the trap."

The dawn of summer comes very early. At four o'clock, some light appears in the night sky. After a while, it is the time for the most active yang energy in the day. The purple zombies inside and outside the village gradually dissipate. Wherever they come and go, I saw with my own eyes that many purple zombies have re-drilled the holes on the ground. What I find difficult to understand is that when these mentally unconscious purple zombies are retracting back to the ground, other zombies passing by from behind will help them fill the holes again.

Walking at the last one, since no other zombies helped fill the hole, he did not drill back to the ground, but walked straight into the depths of the gully on the loess slope, not knowing where he went.

Judging from the actions of these zombies, they seem to be a social group with detailed division of labor, just like an ant colony.

At five o'clock, the sun rose and all the purple zombies disappeared. It was not until dawn that Old Man Zhang hurriedly pushed open the door. He saw the three of us standing on the mound and watching from afar. Then he ran to the mound and shouted at me: "Why don't you stay in the house and run outside?"

I told him very directly: "There were a large number of corpses in the village last night."

Old Man Zhang blinked at me: "What...you?"

I said, "It's a zombie."

Hearing my words, the expression on Old Man Zhang's face changed a few times, and he asked me in confusion: "Isn't it God of Joy? Why have you become a zombie?"

God of Joy?

When Old Man Zhang said these two words, Liang Houzai and I looked at each other.

The word "Happy God" is extremely familiar to people from the corpse-driver lineage. Although it has the word "God", this word does not refer to some god, but a corpse.

I asked Old Man Zhang tentatively: "Grandpa Zhang, what is the God of Joy you are talking about?"

The old man thought for a while and said, "We have never seen it before, and I don't know what it is, but Mrs. Ma said that God of Happiness is something that we mortals cannot attract. This village is very biased and weird. It has to make trouble for God of Happiness every night, and no one outside knows it."

Speaking of this, Old Man Zhang suddenly had a smile on his face: "Oh, are you guys seeing the God of Joy? You are not mortals. Wife Ma said that when a mortal is dead, even if a mortal is coming, even if the Golden Immortal of Daluo comes, you will be three points shorter when you meet the God of Joy."

Daluo Jinxian? It’s really a pity that this wife Ma dares to say it!

When he finished speaking, I continued, "Grandpa Zhang, do you know the zombies in the village... Why doesn't the God of Joy hurt people?"

"Oh, come on, come on, come on, let me show you something." Old Man Zhang said, heading towards his bedroom.

The three of us went down the mound and followed him into the house. He pointed to the door beam of the house and said, "It's this. Wife Ma asked every household to put one, saying that she was specifically for the protection of the God of Joy. At that time, there were a few young and strong people in the village who refused to let go, but everything happened."

I looked towards Old Man Zhang's finger and saw a very thick silver needle inlaid on the door frame. The needle was about one foot long and the female finger was as thick as that. At first glance, it looked like a slender rolling pin, but there were some spell marks on the silver needle.

Liang Houzai whispered to me, "It's the curse seal of the corpse-driver."

In fact, when Old Man Zhang said the word "God of Joy", I had a premonition that Mrs. Ma was related to the lineage of the corpse-driver.

I nodded to Liang Houzai and asked Old Man Zhang again: "When did that witch Ma come to the village and where is her home? Can I go and see it?"

Old Man Zhang said, "Oh, she came very early. She was in this village when I was a child. Her family lives opposite Wang Ermazi's ancestral house. There is a lonely mountain and a lonely house. You will see it when you go. Alas, don't go out to play first. It's time to have a meal later, and have a meal first."

As the old man was talking, his wife lifted the curtain and went to the kitchen.

We were not willing to refuse, so we washed up and waited for dinner.

That morning, Old Man Zhang and his wife heated the steamed buns and heated the sauce that they had not finished eating last night. They simply made a few Jiamo and made Hula soup.

After breakfast, we headed towards Wang Ermazi's ancestral home. Before leaving, I brought the Qinggang Sword and Fantian Seal, and asked Liu Shangang to carry his big backpack.

I plan to just take advantage of the fact that the old house is corpse today. In the remaining days, I can help Old Man Zhang clean up the house and do farm work. It is not easy for an old couple to live in the village.

After leaving the village entrance to the east, I first went to the gully under the loess slope and looked at it. This place was the last place where the purple zombie fell.

The depth of the ravine was very dark. After we reached in, Liu Shangang took out a flashlight and slapped it at the bottom of the ravine.

With the light of the flashlight, I found that there were a large number of corpses piled up at the bottom of the gully, and almost every corpse showed dense patches of spot-like substances, which were spots produced after the deposition of corpse qi.

It is certain that all the corpses here come from evil corpses.

Among this corpse, I also saw the purple zombie that appeared in the village in the early morning. The corpse energy on its body had dissipated in large quantities at this time and was about to turn into an ordinary corpse.

Liang Houzai squatted on the ground, pinched a small handful of soil on his nose and sniffed it, and then said to me: "The soil here has been touched and I can't feel the Kun Qi."

So that's it.

At night, these zombies are exposed to the moonlight and are nourished by the charm of the moonlight. They can also ensure that the corpse qi will not dissipate. During the day, they bury themselves underground and prevent the corpse qi from leaking out. However, once there is no moonlight, no soil protection, and there is not enough Kun Qi to replenish the corpse qi that continues to radiate out of the body, these purple zombies are only dead.

Liang Houzai stood up, clapped his hands, and said to me: "It seems that every time these purple zombies are collectively dispatched at night, when the next day it is getting dark, one will choose to sacrifice itself. But one thing makes me unable to understand how these mentally unconscious purple zombies formed such a social group."
