I'm looking for longevity in Liaozhai

Chapter 8 Sticky Rice Zombie
"Are you an expert? I don't know what skills they have? Pay attention later!" Wang Zhe secretly observed the two people.

When everyone came to the village, the two masters invited by Huang Shen immediately inspected the scene. After discussing it, they went to the county captain. They wanted to enter the mountain, and hoped that the county captain could send arresters to help.

Not long after, several carriages also entered the mountain village. The carriages were filled with wine jars, a few large nets, and a torch tied with linoleum. They asked Huang Shen to prepare these.

In addition, they also bought two sheep from the village and planned to take them up the mountain together.

When they heard that they were going to go up the mountain to search for the monster who killed the villagers, these police officers were very resistant.

"What are you afraid of, you cowards, it is our duty to protect one party's safety!" Zhu Xiao, the headhunter, spoke impassionedly and righteously.

But it was useless, and everyone was still unwilling to enter the mountain.

"Enter the mountain, 50 taels of silver per person!" The white-faced man only said a word, and the eyes of these fast arresters lit up.

Money and silk touch people's hearts, 50 taels, it's worth their salary for several years.

"The two of us walk in the front. If you really encounter a monster, you can run away at any time."

This sentence more or less dispelled some people's worries.

"Anyone who doesn't go will take off his clothes when he goes back!" The county captain said coldly.

Threats and temptations, everything is done.

So these few policemen followed those two up the mountain, each with a wine jar on their backs, Zhu Xiao held a steel knife, and followed behind those two men majestically.

Wang Zhe secretly handed a bag of rice to Lao Hou.

"What is this? Glutinous rice, it's still raw, what are you doing with this?" Lao Hou was stunned as soon as he opened it.

"I heard that this thing can ward off evil spirits. If it works, it won't weigh you down."

"What kind of monster did you say that murdered?"

"I don't know." Wang Zhe shook his head.

Bloody footprints were left at the scene, and there were scratches from fingernails on the wall. The most likely thing was zombies!

As for whether this glutinous rice is effective against zombies, he doesn't know, what if it is effective?
"I just don't know if those two guys are capable, but don't take these people in!" He raised his head and glanced at the two people walking in front.

"What's in the wine jar we're carrying?" Hou Zhu pointed to the back.

"It should be kerosene!" Wang Zhe said.

Although the mouth was sealed outside, Wang Zhe could still smell a faint smell of kerosene.

"It seems that those two people have already guessed what the murderous monster is and have thought of a way to deal with it.

I just don't know why they care about it.

Eliminate demons and defend the way?It must not be that noble, and it is estimated that it can get some benefits from that monster.

"Hiss, Ah Zhe, why do I feel that this mountain forest is eerie."

"Psychological effect."

"Hey, I said you must be careful where you are later, and run away immediately if you feel something is wrong. It's not ashamed, it's important to save your life." Lao Hou said in a low voice.

Well, Wang Zhe nodded.

As he walked, he looked back.

"What are you looking at?" Hou Zhu followed suit.

"Our catcher!" Wang Zhe pouted.

Just now, Zhu Xiao, who was walking in front majestically and looking very brave, unexpectedly reached the back of the team at some point.

"When did this guy run to the back?"

"After the county lieutenant went back, the captor quietly fell behind. I think he was going to be the queen for us." Wang Zhe said.

His five senses are very sharp now, and he pays close attention to the movement around him. He naturally saw Zhu Xiao's little movement just now.

"This guy, bah!" Hou Zhu spat.

The two tall men led the way, stopping to look at their feet and surroundings from time to time. They had obviously found a path for the zombies to travel.

In addition to leaving footprints where the zombies passed by, the grass and trees were all withered, which was a sign of being corroded by corpse poison.

"Don't touch, stay away!"

Seeing Lao Hou looking curiously at the blue and black scratches on a tree trunk, Wang Zhe gave him a tug.

"Keep an eye on those two people, I always feel that they have no good intentions!" Wang Zhe pointed to the person in front.

Yes, yes, Lao Hou nodded.

Wang Zhe looked around as if nothing had happened, quietly took out a few grains of glutinous rice, and threw them on the footprints left by the zombie. In an instant, those grains of rice turned green and black, as if they were burnt.

"Really useful!"

They climbed over the mountain, descended to the valley between the two mountains, and walked a long distance along the valley.

At first I could still hear some birds chirping, but gradually I couldn't hear any birds chirping or insect chirping.

Wang Zhe saw a very strong black air wafting from a forest in the distance.

The two people walking in front stopped and signaled the people behind to stop.

The tall man took out a dagger, cut a hole in the two goats, blood flowed out, and then drove the two goats towards the direction of the cave.

Baa, the goat let out a cry of distress.

After approaching the cave, a black figure suddenly rushed out of the cave, and then grabbed the two goats in without even seeing what they looked like, and there was no movement after a while.

All the arresters who saw this scene were dumbfounded.

"monster!"

I don't know who shouted, and then they retreated unconsciously.

They have seen the miserable situation of those families in the mountain village, and they don't want to become like that themselves.

"Don't be afraid, it is afraid of sunlight and flames, and dare not come out during the day!" said the tall man.

"Azhe, is what he said true?" Lao Hou's face also turned very pale.

"Even if it's true, look at this day, and look around us, how many rays of sunshine can you see?"

Wang Zhe pointed to the sky, where the sun was covered by clouds, and then pointed to the surroundings, where the trees were lush, and the mountains in the distance blocked part of the sunlight, and they were in the shadow of the mountains.

"Do you remember the way you came here?"

"remember."

"Run immediately if something goes wrong, and don't care about anyone." Wang Zhe urged.

"What about you?" Lao Hou couldn't help asking after hearing this.

"Don't worry, I will run faster than you!" Wang Zhe grinned.

At this moment, the tall man asked everyone to untie the wine jar from their backs, gathered together, raised his hand and threw it towards the cave, with a bang, the wine jar shattered, and then he threw a torch past.

With a bang, the flames exploded, instantly igniting the surrounding vegetation.

The white-faced man took out a piece of yellow paper from his pocket, murmured something, and threw it away, the yellow paper burned in the air, and then a wind blew in the forest, and the wind blew the flames straight into the cave Chung.

There were faint roars coming from the cave.

The flames were swept into the cave by the wind, and the flames in the forest continued to intensify.
