Chapter 171(2/2)

"The villagers use sun fire to let the dead body experience the final life in the earth."

When raising corpses, the corpse keeper will become one with the soul of the corpse.

The Yuanxi people are able to raise corpses, perhaps because they are born with feelings for dead bodies.

Let the soul of the dead body escape from them, and the dead body will never stand up again.

After decades of raising dead bodies, how could they be willing to let them go at once? So, the villagers decided to let the dead bodies live another life in the world before leaving them completely.

"So that's it." Yan Yan lowered his eyes.

She misunderstood those dead bodies.

No wonder they sing and dance every night, even if they can't taste the food, they still cook it.

This is the last time they will stay in the earth.

"You two have great supernatural powers, but can you save me, Yuan Xi?" the middle-aged man asked with hope.

Yan Yan pursed his lips, and Bai Zhu wrote the word "no" on the middle-aged man's hand.

They are impermanent, ghosts from the underworld, and cannot meddle in the affairs of the human world.

All that can be done is to bring the departed soul of the dead body back to the underworld.

"That's it." The middle-aged man smiled, with a look of disappointment that couldn't be concealed in his eyes.

"Why do brain-eating insects appear in Yuanxi?" The researcher asked curiously, "I remember that there is a Yuanhe River, so the brain-eating insects cannot come here."

Here in Yuanxi, the eggs of brain-eating worms cannot hatch and die before they become adults.

The adults can only live elsewhere, but there is the Yuan River around Yuanxi, trapping the brain-eating insects outside Yuanxi.

The middle-aged man shook his head: "I don't know, but this is the only time in thousands of years that swarms of brain-eating worms have appeared in our Yuanxi."

"That time?" Yan Yan was confused.

The middle-aged man nodded and sighed: "It is said that there is a vision from the sky, but if it is also a vision from the sky this time, the world will be in chaos."

"Vision, what kind of vision?" Yan Yan asked Bai Zhu in a low voice.

"The yin and yang are reversed, but lightning and thunder appear in the clear sky. The day is like night, and the night is like day." Bai Zhu calculated, "It should have happened seven hundred years ago. You have no memory?"

Yan Yan frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head: "I may not even remember what happened a hundred years ago."

Bai Zhu said calmly: "To put it bluntly, in those years when all life was in ruins, I captured tens of millions of souls to become Bai Wuchang."

"Oh!" Yan Yan said in shock, "Then this time..."

"Not necessarily. This time is different from what happened seven hundred years ago. The appearance of brain-eating worms in Yuanxi may also be man-made."

The middle-aged man could not hear a word of the conversation between the two, otherwise he would not have discovered after his death that the black and white voices were very similar to the voices of the man and woman in front of him.

Yan Yan and Bai Zhu asked in detail.

The dead body needs to be immobilized with a corpse oil lamp and must sleep in a stone house to prevent the body from decaying.

After their souls returned to their bodies, their hearts could beat because their souls were stained with the Yang Fire of the Corpse Keeper. After that trace of Yang Fire burned out.

Out of the three souls and seven souls of the dead body, only one soul remains, which becomes a ghost floating in the world, and the body of the dead body will rot and turn into bones within an hour.

However, the life and death in the book of life and death in the underworld have been fixed. If they want the dead body to look like a living person, they must replace the life span and soul of the person who raised the corpse at the same time.

At the bottom of the Yuan River are the villagers of Qianhu Village. They temporarily soak their bodies in the water of the Yuan River to trap their bodies and souls.

When the dead bodies turn into bones, they can emerge from the bottom of the water.

And their life span will be cut in half.

Those villagers who are over forty or fifty years old may lose their longevity after coming out of the water.

The reason why the middle-aged man did not replace the dead body at the bottom of the Yuan River was because the dead body lost control and left Yuanxi not long ago.

It just so happened that a corpse keeper was needed to be left in the village to help the corpse control its body.

"Then Yuan Xi's dead bodies will all disappear?" Yan Yan said sadly.

She still remembered the zombie possessed by Qingmian, who was as cute as Qingmian...
