After the incident with the female ghost, the mortuary welcomed a short period of peace.
For the next few days, nothing else happened.
The atmosphere in the mortuary was also relaxed, and it was no longer as vigilant as before. In the courtyard, Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng were constantly playing, as if the peaceful days would last forever.
However, Ninth Uncle and Lu Yuan knew very well that these days were only temporary.
As long as that flying zombie didn't die, the people in the memorial hall wouldn't be safe.
Zombies were very vengeful!
This was especially so for a flying zombie like Old Master Ren. Its strength was not low, and it had drunk the blood of its own son. Its strength was extremely strong, so it could not be careless.
Therefore, although the mortuary seemed to be relaxed on the surface, Lu Yuan and Ninth Uncle would take turns to keep watch every night. One would stay up for the first half of the night, while the other would stay up for the second half.
The flying zombie's body was sturdy, but its body was light. It could easily sneak into the mortuary. If no one was on guard, no one would know that it had sneaked in. Ninth Uncle and Lu Yuan would naturally not make such a low-level mistake.
That night, as usual, Lu Yuan and Ninth Uncle were on guard for the first half of the night.
The Yin Qi was at its peak when it was close to midnight. All kinds of demons and ghosts would choose to appear at this time and wander around the human world.
Especially in the wilderness, where there were few people, evil spirits were even more unscrupulous!
But the mortuary was an exception!
Although the mortuary was located in the suburbs, it was under the protection of the ancestral temple of Mao Mountain. The evil spirits would avoid it, and there would definitely not be any ignorant things approaching.
Lu Yuan sat cross-legged in the courtyard. Beside him was a thick stack of talisman papers and several peach wood swords.
Talismans were consumables, so he naturally had to prepare more. As for the peach wood swords, they were too fragile. It was definitely not enough to prepare just one. Lu Yuan had also prepared a few more and placed them here in case of emergency.
Lu Yuan was still circulating the Innate Pure Yang Technique. The pure Yang energy was circulating in his body. Not only could it resist the cold air in the middle of the night, but it could also cleanse his meridians and temper his body.
Mao Mountain was a large sect, and the Innate Pure Yang Technique was the secret manual of Mao Mountain. It had many powerful aspects. The pure Yang power not only had great restraint on evil spirits, but it could also temper the body and make it sturdy.
However, Lu Yuan's cultivation time was too short, and his strength was still shallow. He had only cultivated to the second level, so he had not been able to unleash the true power of the Innate Pure Yang Technique. In the future, when Lu Yuan cultivated to a higher level, the brilliance of this technique would gradually appear.
It was late at night. Lu Yuan sat cross-legged and cultivated. He closed his eyes and focused. He seemed to be focused on cultivation, but he was secretly vigilant and checked his surroundings.
Suddenly, Lu Yuan opened his eyes and looked outside the courtyard wall with a stern expression. An ominous aura came from the boundless night!
The night was as dark as ink, concealing the demonic aura and evil aura. However, Lu Yuan was very sure that at this moment, there should be something spying on the outside of the courtyard wall. It was like a ferocious beast in the night, discerning the strength of its prey to see if it should directly attack!
"Lu Yuan, what happened?"
Ninth Uncle hurried over in a robe.
Something was spying on the memorial hall in the dark. Ninth Uncle was a light sleeper, so he noticed it immediately.
Ninth Uncle and Lu Yuan appeared in the mortuary together. The things outside the courtyard wall seemed to be intimidated. After hesitating for a moment, they finally chose to retreat and hide in the boundless night.
"There was something spying in the dark just now. It should be Old Master Ren!”
The flying zombie's speed was extremely fast, and it was very difficult to track it down in the dark. This was also the reason why Lu Yuan did not make a move.
Ninth Uncle frowned as he looked at the boundless night sky outside the courtyard and could not help but sigh.
The world was unstable, and zombies dared to take the initiative to spy on the mortuary!
More importantly, the zombies did not attack but chose to retreat.
A zombie that knew how to weigh the strong and the weak was harder to deal with than a zombie with low intelligence…
……
"Lu Yuan, since that thing has already retreated, you should go back and rest first. I'll guard this place.”
Looking at the time, it was almost time for the handover. Lu Yuan pondered for a moment and did not decline. He handed over the task of keeping watch to Ninth Uncle and returned to his room alone.
Although there was no need to keep watch, Lu Yuan was a light sleeper. If there was any movement, Lu Yuan would be alerted in time.
Fortunately, nothing happened that night. Even when the sky was just starting to brighten, the zombie still didn't sneak into the memorial hall.
Ninth Uncle stretched and let out a breath of turbid air.
The sky was already bright, and the sun was rising sunrise the east. The rays of the sun had already begun to awaken the earth. The zombies were afraid of the sunlight and would no longer come out to cause trouble.
Lu Yuan had also woken up early in the morning. He had always had the habit of running in the morning. Although he had slept well last night, Lu Yuan was currently a cultivator. The pure Yang energy was circulating mysteriously, so he did not feel tired at all.
"Good morning, Senior Brother!"
"Um…Morning!"
Having spent quite some time with Lu Yuan, Ninth Uncle had also begun to get used to Lu Yuan's strange way of greeting.
Lu Yuan looked at Ninth Uncle's strange expression and smiled. He was about to open the door and go out for a morning run when there was a hurried knock on the door!
Lu Yuan's smile disappeared, and Ninth Uncle's expression also paused. The two of them looked at each other and sensed that something was wrong. They hurriedly opened the door.
It was Ah Wei!
"Daoist Priest Lu…Ninth…Ninth Uncle…Something bad has happened…"
"Huff huff…"
Ah Wei had obviously run all the way here, and was panting heavily at this moment.
Ninth Uncle stepped forward and helped Ah Wei breathe. He said,"Ah Wei, don't be anxious.”
After a while, Ah Wei finally caught his breath."Something happened in Ren Town. Someone died last night. There were two deep bloody holes on the victim's neck, and there was no blood in the body!”
As soon as Ah Wei finished speaking, Ninth Uncle's pupils constricted!
There were two deep bloody holes on the neck, and the corpse had lost its blood…
The zombies had attacked and sucked their blood dry!
Zombies attacked Ren Town last night!
"A few people died. Where are their bodies?”
Ninth Uncle said hurriedly, his expression extremely solemn!
Zombies were extremely dangerous, mainly because the zombie virus could spread rapidly. If those corpses were not handled properly, they would quickly turn into new zombies and bite people everywhere. If they were not controlled properly, the entire Ren Town would become zombies!
Then, Ren Town would become a zombie town, with all living people dead, and there would not even be any living beings!
"Three people died last night. The bodies have been sent to the police station.”
Ah Wei had seen Ren Fa's corpse transformation before, so he naturally knew that there was something wrong with those corpses. He hurriedly transported them to the police station and placed them in the prison. He even locked them up, so they should be fine for the time being.
It had to be said that Ah Wei's brain was usually not very good, but this time, he was smart for once!
"Lu Yuan, there's no time to lose. I'll go to the town now and burn all those corpses!”
Although Ah Wei handled it well, those corpses infected by the corpse poison had to be burned as soon as possible.
