Chapter 181 Resurrection from the dead has a price
"Pengcheng is now firmly controlled by Peng Zu, the ancestor of the Great Peng Clan. All the people in the city are protected by him in a strange way... It should be considered that they are protected."
Ouyang explained: "I can't explain to you what kind of state this is. In short, it is safe at the moment. And I am not sure whether Peng Zu's behavior is considered protection, or it may be a hostage, because it is the first time with Peng Zu.
When we met, he hid a lot of things from me."
"What do you mean?" Xiong Zhong asked, "Did Peng Zu not only live for eight hundred years, but he is still alive today? What a long life this must have..."
As Xiong Zhong spoke, he glanced at the public transportation team beside him. The two of them showed expressions of shock and a hint of envy and yearning.
"No... if he looks like that, he shouldn't be considered 'alive', right?" Ouyang thought of the huge "City of Plants" and scratched his cheek awkwardly and said,
"He can't move, he can't walk, he can't eat, drink or sleep in the usual sense... He can no longer 'live' as a 'human being'."
"What did Peng Zu become?" Gongsun Chao interjected and asked, swallowing in shock.
"It turned into a very spectacular tree." Ouyang said.
"Eh?" Everyone was stunned for a moment, their minds unable to turn around for a moment.
"That's the kind, some are like a big banyan tree, some are like a willow tree, with a lot of twigs and rattans. But it's very, very big." Ouyang said and gestured with his hands, and then gave up when he saw the confused expressions on everyone's faces.
Already.
"I'd better take you to Pengcheng to find out about this kind of thing." Ouyang said, and began to disassemble the flamethrower, "Bring two flamethrowers and two teams, let's go to Pengcheng!
I need your help with something!"
"What's the matter?" Xiong Zhong was a little flattered: Did I hear you correctly? Mr. Ouyang, who is unparalleled in the world, actually needs us to help him?
"Yes." Ouyang nodded and looked at Xiong Zhonghe Gongshuban with a serious face, "I want to go to Pengcheng to meet Peng Zu again. He has been living since the emperor's time and knows far more than us. Maybe there will be
Some useful clues.
But he can no longer be considered a human being, so it is not certain whether he will always stand in the human camp. And regarding some of the things he has hidden from me, his attitude can only be known after a face-to-face confrontation."
"Is it too dangerous?" Wang Sheng was a little worried.
"Danger is always inevitable." Ouyang shrugged, "That's why I brought you with me. If I am trapped in there for more than an hour, you will use flamethrowers on Pengcheng."
"Burn the city with fire? Is this really possible?" Xiong Zhong asked, somewhat uneasy.
Because according to Xiong Zhong's common sense, the city is mainly made of stone. Although the houses inside can be burned, the entire city...
It shouldn't be possible to light it, right?
"You will know whether it can be burned when you get there." Ouyang showed a subtle expression and said with a half-smile, "Don't be too surprised when the time comes..."

King Chu stood on the city wall, looking at the zombies being cleared below, and showed a satisfied smile.
If we keep cleaning up at this rate, we will definitely be able to clean up the zombies outside Yingdu City before the snow melts away. By then, Yingdu City will be able to resume its normal daily life.
Live, work in the fields, and quickly recover from this disaster.
By then, it would be time for him to establish a new Chu State again.
All the Lions and Black Bees have telepathic connections with him and are extremely loyal. When the time comes, they can send this group of people out to either supervise the local chief executive or take over the power to manage the local area, and they can directly establish an unbreakable network.
Centralized empire!
By then, no matter the Jin State, the Qin State, the Qi State or the Yue State, it will be impossible for him to be as united as the Chu State. Of course, it will not be possible for him to live as long as the King of Chu - he has already learned from other lobster-like kings.
Among arthropods, longevity genes have been obtained.
In fact, as long as he can survive the molt once every ten years, he can achieve immortality.
This kind of power beyond the specifications is enough for him to create a regiment of super soldiers in a year. It can be called a push bug, a god-level plug-in in the community system.
The only thing I'm more worried about is the giant that appears out of nowhere.
Why do giants appear? And why do they attack cities? What are their physiological functions? How do their bones bear such a huge weight? Where do they come from? Why were they not known before? Will they appear next time?
Are there more terrifying giants? Or... could they be a certain species?
If there were dozens more such terrifying giants, even he wouldn't be able to bear them now.
The King of Chu was not unfounded. Even though he came from the era of information explosion, he could not figure out the origin of the giant. There was no data record, and it was difficult to explain it from a biological perspective.
Maybe there is another force at work? Maybe even these zombies were strayed from that force? King Chu secretly guessed.
Even the first generation of Chu monarchs had this kind of supernatural power created by using witches and Gu. How could the Emperor of Zhou at that time, or even the earlier, more mysterious Yellow Emperor, not be able to come up with something exaggerated?
He had read similar articles and visited many forums. There was a point in these forums and articles that there were records of "zombie" as early as the Huangdi era.
"The Book of Mountains and Seas: Overseas Northern Classic" records that there is Zhongshan in the west of Ichimu Kingdom. There is a god in Zhongshan called Zhuyin. He has a human face and a snake god. His body is red and he is at least a thousand miles long.
He does not need to eat. He does not eat or drink. Winter and summer are between each breath. He opens and closes his eyes, day and night.
As a real god, He is very advanced and has reached the level of being able to control the ecological environment of the earth. He can control the cycle of the four seasons and the flow of day and night, which is equivalent to "Gaia" in scientific hypothesis.
There is a "prince" in the Zhuyin Kingdom, his name is Yaoyao (Tongjia "Yayu"). It is said that a long time ago, he left the Zhuyin Kingdom and came to the Central Plains to be an "official".
Of course, for a god, being an official may actually mean being a god, descending to earth to be worshiped by others, and taking charge of the good weather of the world.
As a result, among the many tribes in the Central Plains, there was a leader named Er Fu, who was quite heroic and prestigious. Er Fu had a minister named Wei. Wei and Er Fu murdered Yaoyao.
But after murdering Yaoyao, Wei and Ershou did not destroy the body.
Why did Erhuai and Wei kill Yaoyao? Why did they leave Yaoyao's body behind? What is the use of Yaoyao's body?
The subsequent records in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" came to an abrupt end.
Doesn’t it sound a little confusing and confusing?
Don’t worry, you can’t read out of context when reading a book, so look for passages from other places and read them together as a whole.
It is recorded in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas: Hai Nei Xi Jing" that there is a place called Kaiming in the Ruins of Kunlun, and there is a group of witch doctors living to the east of Kaiming.
This witch doctor group was at the forefront of technology, culture, and medicine at that time. It could not only communicate with the gods, but also assist the king in governing the country and heal the people.
They sent six witch doctors, namely "Wu Peng, Wu Ding, Wu Yang, Wu Lu, Wu Fan, and Wu Xiang".
How about it? Does it sound familiar?
If you have played Gu Jian Qi Tan, you should be familiar with these names but also unfamiliar. They are the prototypes of the "Nuwa Ten Witches" in Gu Jian Qi Tan.
These six masters snatched Yaoyao's body from Erfu and Wei, and used their combined efforts to refine the elixir of immortality in an attempt to resurrect Yaoyao.
Why did the six witch doctors resurrect Yaoyao? Was Yaoyao successfully resurrected? Will the resurrected Yaoyao take revenge?
At this point, The Classic of Mountains and Seas comes to an abrupt end again.
Don't worry, keep looking for other paragraphs to read.
"The Classic of Mountains and Seas, Bei Ci Yi Jing" records that someone discovered a monster in a place called Shaoxian Mountain. This monster looked like a cow, with a red body, horse-like hooves and a baby-like cry. Love
eat human.
This monster is elusive and often attacks and kills travelers who pass by here, so there is a warrior who is willing to risk his life to kill this monster.
But when the warrior suddenly saw the face of this monster, he was shocked. This was the former Yaoyao, their former god!
It turns out that Yaoyao is not dead, but his body no longer exists. He is no longer the same person. Only a face or a head is left, and his identity can be barely identified.
Whether it was Er Fu and Wei who destroyed Yaoyao's body until only a head was left, or whether the six great witch doctors did some horrific experiments on Yaoyao, or whether the elixir had any terrifying effects, no one other than the person involved could tell.
People know.
But Erfu and Wei, as well as the six witch doctors, have long since disappeared. The only one who can reveal the truth has turned into a monster who only "squeaks" and eats people like a baby.
However, when did Yaoyao start cannibalizing people? And why did it do so?
Don't know all this.
The King of Chu knew only one thing, and that was that there was more than one monster that "eats people" in the "Book of Mountains and Seas", and Yaoyao was by no means an isolated case.
The foxes and nine tails of Qingqiu Mountain, as well as the aquatic beasts and vultures recorded in the "Shan Hai Jing Nan Shan Jing" are all "snarling and strange" beasts that love to eat people.
In "The Classic of Mountains and Seas: Beishan Jing", the roe deer owl has a sheep body and a human face, eyes under its armpits, tiger teeth and human claws. It is also a monster that "makes weird noises" and loves to eat people.
In "The Classic of Mountains and Seas: Dongshan Jing", the nine-tailed, nine-headed, tiger-clawed leech, as well as the duck-body human-faced creature with a yellow body and a red tail, are all monsters that love to eat people with their "strange screams".
In the world view of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", whether in Nanshan, Beishan, Dongshan, etc., there are some weird-looking monsters that sound like babies but like to eat people.
Is this a coincidence?
