Chapter 9 [Refining Corpse](1/2)
After waking up, I realized that the skin on my body was covered with a layer of dark yellow pungent oil.
Gu Changsheng knew that this was the dirt that the true qi was removed after he broke through to the first level of Qi training.
After quickly going to the backyard, washing away the dirt attached to the body with the clean water from the ancient well, then I began to observe the changes in my body.
The eyes can see more clearly, and you can see the roots of the willow leaves ten feet away.
My ears are also more sensitive, and I can hear the chirping of crickets in the front yard and the shouts of some breakfast stalls outside.
His sense of smell has also improved greatly. The dirt that was discharged from his body just now almost made him faint.
You should know that Gu Changsheng could have touched the corpse in a foul-smelling place like the mass grave all night, and his nose must not be so delicate.
Then he felt that his body was stronger. If he was not as strong as ordinary adults before, he would have overtaken directly after being transformed by true qi, and could deal with three or five adults alone.
I'm more energetic.
Although it cannot be compared with the two Taoist priests he killed before, Gu Changsheng believed that as long as he persisted in practicing hard, he would one day surpass them.
More importantly, after Gu Changsheng broke through to the first level of Qi training, Xiaoqing, who had previously worried him, completely disappeared.
In fact, since he entered the practice seven days ago, Xiaoqing's backlash has gradually weakened.
Although Xiaoqing's backlash problem completely disappeared after breaking through the first level of Qi training, Gu Changsheng did not relax his vigilance.
Because Xiaoqing was on the verge of breaking through to the snake dragon at this time, this is like their practitioners breaking from the Qi training stage to the Foundation Establishment stage. It is a breakthrough in a great realm and their strength will be greatly improved.
So he needs to make himself stronger so that he will not immediately suffer backlash after Xiaoqing breaks through to the snake dragon.
After getting used to it, Gu Changsheng and Xiaoqing rushed to the charity village.
The Yizhuang is in the southwest corner of the small town, and the haunted house he lives in is in the west of the small town, and the distance is not far.
After a quarter of an hour after arriving at the Yizhuang Village, Gu Changsheng finally saw a more desolate place in the small town than the ghost house he lives in now.
I don’t know if it was specially prepared for the charity village, and there is no house within a radius of twenty or thirty feet.
The Yizhuang was built on a dilapidated temple. The plaque that Gu Gu Changsheng saw when he came to the Yizhuang was written as "Pufa Temple".
The original meaning is: to save all sentient beings and promote Buddhism.
Gu Changsheng looked at the plaque on the door strangely, and entered it after a while.
The first thing that caught my eye was the coffins in most of the yard, with more than twenty pieces.
A unique smell of rotten smell of corpses hits the face, which makes ordinary people vomit, but only makes Gu Changsheng frown slightly.
Although there are few coffins in the room, they are denser than in the yard.
It’s just that I’m with that kind-hearted Buddha statue, and it feels a little inconsistent no matter how I look at it.
The person guarding the Yizhuang Village was an old man who was nearly fifty years old. When he saw Gu Changsheng, he was stunned.
"The little brother is also guarding the Yizhuang?"
The reason I asked this was because he felt the smell of the corpse on Gu Changsheng.
"almost."
Gu Changsheng did not give a clear answer, but looked at the old man carefully.
It was also inappropriate to call the other old man. For some reason, he felt that this person's actual age should not be as old as he looked on his face.
"Why do you have so many coffins here? Who stored them?"
"There are all kinds of people, temporary storage, unburying, abnormal deaths, etc. Every once in a while, I will pull some unburned bodies to the mass graves outside the city." The old man said with all his knowledge.
He is the only one in the charity village all year round. People who come usually come and go in a hurry. Few people like to chat with him.
What's more, the old man treated Gu Changsheng as his colleague, so he said what he said.
Gu Changsheng didn't expect that the Yizhuang would be crowded, so he continued to ask: "How come there are so many unburyed corpses?"
"There are many reasons. The main reason is that our Wu Kingdom was first established and we encountered drought, which led to rampant bandits and public security in the city was getting worse, so there were naturally more people who died."
"How often do you go to the mass grave? How many bodies are there each time?"
After briefly asking about the whole story, Gu Changsheng went straight to the point.
"Two to three times a month, about ten times a time?"
"Little brother, do you want to take on this job?" the old man asked in surprise.
The ordinary clothes that Gu Changsheng wore were now in the thin Taoist Xu Beihe storage bag, but he was not like those who had no money to eat and do such dirty and tiring work.
Gu Changsheng, who was looking for a reason, did not expect the old man to ask this question, so he agreed directly:
"yes!"
"The cost is second, mainly to make some money on the corpse."
And give the old man a look you know.
This is very clear to the old man who deals with corpses all day long, because he has done this too.
But now as I get older and my physical strength drops so much, I gradually stop.
"Well, for the sake of my fellow travelers, I will give you a chance, three times a month, one body and one copper coin, how about it?" The old man said after pondering for a while.
"One word is determined."
After the finalization was made, Gu Changsheng asked how many ownerless corpses were in the charity house. When he learned that there were only four, he discussed with the old man and decided to try it tonight.
The reason for this is that when transporting dead people, it is unlucky, so it can only be put in the middle of the night when it is late at night.
Of course, the old man would give Gu Changsheng a sign to prove his identity, otherwise the patrolers would find that they could not explain clearly and could not leave the city gate at all.
After getting rid of the corpse, Gu Changsheng quickly purchased the auxiliary items for corpse refining.
Some commonly used items have been bought, and the rest are some strange things.
For example, Yin Kui Blood is the sunflower blood of women born on Yin year, Yin month and sunflower. This kind of thing is not something you can buy just by wanting to buy. You need to find such a person first.
There are many such things, such as black cats, corpse oil, purple river carts, etc.
When the purchase was fruitless, Gu Changsheng could only hold a high-priced purchase in various stores. As long as he could buy it, it was worth spending a little more.
His confidence is his silver notes of more than 3,000 taels in the storage bag.
However, as the purchases gradually increased, I realized that this was a bottomless pit. The huge sum of more than 3,000 taels could not withstand such tossing and spending most of it in less than a month.
Of course, this is just a later story.
After running around the various stores in the city, Gu Changsheng then returned to his residence with the corpse-refining auxiliary items he bought.
Research the method of refining corpses, wait until the corpse is transported over tonight before refining.
After the four bodies were transported, they were already in the middle of the night.
There are three men and one woman, both men are in their thirties and forties, while the women are in their twenties.
This time, what Gu Changsheng was preparing to refine zombies and zombies.
The zombies are the lowest, with weak attack power and can only appear at night and have no requirements for the corpse.
Zombies are not the case. They not only have sharp claws and canine teeth, but also have corpse poison. They are the most powerful beings among many corpses.
Even practitioners in the Qi training stage will be unable to resist without certain effective means of response.
At the same time, it is relatively difficult to refine.
There are also requirements for the refined corpse, and there are six steps: selecting corpses, stooping corpses, washing corpses, raising corpses, refining corpses and psychic communication.
Generally, it takes 7749 days.
However, there are also ways to speed up corpse refining, which only requires more corpse refining auxiliary objects.
Therefore, Gu Changsheng practiced at night and refined the corpse during the day, and lived a simple and fulfilling life when he was full of corpses.
It was the increasingly diminishing wallet that made him feel a little painful.
Although this money is easy to come, I didn’t expect it to be so unbearable to spend it!
Even so, Gu Changsheng did not give up on purchasing auxiliary items for corpse refining, but only slightly reduced the expenses of big fish and meat every day.
At the same time, I was also thinking about how to escape the situation of being besieged by many Taoist priests in front of me.
The known situation is that people are guarding the gates of four small cities, and there must be something that can be found.
In Gu Changsheng's opinion, the most likely thing is the unique aura in everyone.
For example, a puppy can find its owner through the smell among hundreds of people.
Although the enemy's chance of tracing Xiaoqing was greater, he himself did not take it lightly.
......
After Gu Changsheng found the corpse and was busy refining the corpse, Wang Yaohai and his group, who were guarding the gates of various cities, were a little impatient.
"We have been guarding for ten days. When will we have to guard this end?"
While Feng Qiming complained, he also made a secret decision to return to the sect tomorrow.
"Senior Brother Wang, do you think that kid will die in this small town and not come out?"
