Longevity begins with loose cultivation

Chapter 19
Early the next morning.

Lu Zhong got up with dark circles under his eyes, and the strange face of the paper man was still echoing in his mind.

Not daring to delay any longer, he scooped up a ladle of water to wash his face, lit the Lingshi and pushed open the door.

For some reason, the two paper figurines at the gate of Zhao Fugui Courtyard on the opposite side disappeared, only two white lanterns fluttering in the wind.

It stands to reason that after the Lantern Festival, the temperature will soon heat up.

However, walking under the sun, instead of feeling the heat, Lu Zhongfei felt the cold wind whizzing, gusts of cold air gushing into his body, as if he was in an ice cave.

"What's wrong with me?"

Lu Zhong felt something was wrong with his body, logically speaking, it is impossible for a monk to be so weak.

The current him is different from when he first came here. His body nourished by spiritual energy is not to mention strong enough to lift a copper tripod, but at least he is more than a mortal man in his prime. It is no problem to carry more than a thousand catties. Although the body has not reached the level of invulnerability from water and fire, it basically will not get sick from catching a cold.

There is only one explanation for this situation, something must be wrong!

When he was about to reach the entrance of the alley, a monk walked towards him.

When the two saw each other, they both stopped walking in a daze.

"How are you?"

The same words are spoken at the same time.

Lu Zhong hurriedly walked to the puddle of stagnant water beside him, and found that his complexion was terribly pale, with no trace of blood visible on his face, and he looked like a dead man's face.

The monk looked through the bronze mirror and found something wrong with himself.

"Ahhh!"

Suddenly, a miserable cry came from a distance.

When Lu Zhong arrived, there was already a circle of people at the scene, all of them looked forward with horror.

On a brick wall in front of everyone, there was a bright red corpse nailed to it. The skin on the surface of this person was gone, and the flesh and blood were exposed like this. He was still screaming terribly at this moment.

Judging by this posture, I'm afraid I won't be able to breathe for a while.

Lu Zhong frowned when he saw it, and thought to himself what kind of deep hatred must be, that he skinned a person and nailed him here, insisting that the other person wailed and died in extreme pain.

The physical fitness that the monk was so proud of was actually a torture tool for himself at this time.

Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a figure. It was his neighbor Zhao Lin who had just moved here. The other person was also watching in the crowd at the moment, but his expression looked a bit wrong, and his face was clearly smug.

Could it be that this is his handwriting?
Before Lu Zhong could think about it, he heard a "puchi".

An ice needle flew from a distance, just piercing the eyebrow of the person on the wall.

"Get out of the way!"

A group of people brutally pushed and walked to the wall. A cold-faced young man at the head looked at the corpse on the wall, his face became extremely cold, and his body was already trembling slightly due to anger.

Yu Qing didn't expect that he would encounter such a thing just after taking over the position of captain of the Qingliuxu Law Enforcement Team.

The man nailed to the wall was not an unknown person, he was actually the vice-captain of the law enforcement team he had just appointed, but he was brought to a miserable end without even thinking about turning his head.

This is clearly a provocation.

It was slapping Yu Qing's face wildly!

Suddenly, his eyes fixed on Lu Zhong.

Then Yu Qing seemed to have discovered something, his eyes swept across the crowd, his complexion changed slightly.Reaching out to touch his face, his hands trembled involuntarily.

Without speaking, he turned and walked away quickly.

Lu Zhongben was very concerned about his state. Seeing that even the disciples of Qingyang Sect looked like this, he felt bad in his heart. He immediately withdrew from the crowd and hurried towards the street.

Along the way, many passers-by passed by, and their expressions were not normal.

For some reason, these people don't seem to realize this.

On the side of the road, paper money floated at some point.

A chill welled up in his heart, and Lu Zhong ran up.

The place he is going now is the home of the talisman maker Li Dong.

After Qingliu Ruins was ransacked by demon cultivators, the shops that originally sold talismans closed down, and those that were closed closed. Even if they were going to reopen, they were still in the process of raising supplies and would not be able to open for a while.

Now if Lu Zhong wants to buy the exorcism talisman, the only choice is to go to Li Dong.

He didn't meet any pedestrians on the road, and the whole street was so quiet that it made one's heart chill.

"What happened to Qingliu Market? No, I have to go to Li Dong's house immediately!"

Just as Lu Zhong walked to the intersection of Dong Li's alley, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in front of him.

The footsteps sounded like an old man's, but they were messy.

After a while, a figure covered in blood appeared at the entrance of the alley.

His face was bloody and bloody, and it was full of signs of being eaten. There was a big bloody hole in his stomach, and all the colorful internal organs flowed out, and his whole body exuded a foul smell.

On the pale and bluish body surface, patches of purple-red plaques gradually emerged.

Shi Wangqi looked at it, and found that this person was covered in a layer of black air, and it continued to radiate in all directions.

As soon as the weeds on the roadside were touched by the black air, they withered and turned black.

"It's Yin Qi! This person has turned into a corpse!"

Lu Zhong's heartbeat accelerated suddenly, and at the same time he stepped back uncontrollably.

He didn't expect that there would be a corpse change in Qingliu Ruins, and while he felt absurd in his heart, he couldn't help but think of the mutation that happened to him, as well as Yu Qing's obviously abnormal behavior just now.

Touching the Fireball Talisman in his arms again, he subconsciously wanted to arouse it.

Fortunately, he calmed down in the end, so he didn't waste this life-saving talisman.

Looking at the newly transformed corpse again, Lu Zhong found that its joints were twisted abnormally, and it was walking in an extremely strange posture, the speed of which was even slower than that of an old man on crutches.

"It seems that it hasn't been long since the corpse changed, and the zombification has not been completed yet."

To be cautious, Lu Zhong still picked up a wooden stick at hand, and then tried to get closer.

"Shout!"

Seeing the living creature approaching, the living corpse let out a roar, stretching out its black nails and pounced forward.

However, its speed was so slow that just as it made a move, it was hit hard on the forehead by Lu Zhong with a stick. The thick wooden stick broke in response, and the skulls of the living corpses were knocked out.

White and yellow splashed all over the ground, exuding a disgusting and unpleasant smell.

There was a crisp clang, and a copper ring rolled to the ground.

When Lu Zhong saw it, he immediately picked up this ring that was shining with aura, which was not ordinary at first glance.

At this time, there was another sound of footsteps behind him.

He looked back and found that it was actually a whole group of living corpses.

There are too many to beat!
Hastily dropped half of the wooden stick in his hand, and rushed to Li Dong's house without looking back.

At the same time, Qingliu Market seemed to be frying.

There were screams and screams one after another, wailing and howling, and there were bursts of muffled sounds of spell explosions.

Lu Zhong ran hard, turned a corner and finally saw Li Dong's house.

But what made him feel cold was that at this moment, the door of Li Dong's house was wide open, and there were still two corpses lying at the door.

At this moment, only a bang was heard, and a burst of flames gushed out from Dong Li's house.

Immediately afterwards, a charred black corpse flew out and hit the opposite wall.

At this time, Li Dong held a blood-stained long sword and hugged a boy in the other hand, and walked out of the house.

Seeing Lu Zhong, his expression seemed a little hesitant. After glancing at the boy in his arms, the expression on his face became firm, and he shot out a talisman with his fingers.

"Put it on your body after it is activated, it can expel the Yin Qi in your body."

Lu Zhong did it without any hesitation, and he really felt the breath being drawn out of his body.

The sun shines on the body, and it finally feels warm again.

At the same time, the market became more and more noisy.

"Hoohoho!"

A breathtaking roar suddenly came from a distance.
