Only I Shall Be Immortal - 42. Chapter 42-Evil Ghoul (Part 1)

The Western Regions are vast and sparsely populated. After entering here, Hailong understands how naive he is. When he was in the Central Plains, he once thought that as long as he entered the Western Regions, he would definitely find the small village where he was born and raised. But when he got here, he knew he was wrong. The size of the boundaries of the Western Regions and the vastness of their territories are no less than that of the Central Plains. Moreover, there are sparsely populated people here, and most of them are like the village where he was originally, and have no understanding of the outside world. When he was in the Central Plains, he could still ask for directions, but when he got here, he could only find out on his own. Three days, three full days have passed, and the Western Regions Plateau seemed to have no margins. He didn’t know whether he was getting closer or further away from Lianyun Mountain. On this vast plateau, he felt that he was so small.

The sun was shining harshly on the earth, because it was located on a plateau. During the day, the air was extremely hot. If the sea dragon hadn’t had a certain amount of mana, perhaps he had already been sunburned. Taking out the water bag from Qiankun Ring and taking a sip, Hailong looked into the distance, crying secretly in his heart. He has encountered four or five villages or tribes, but the result of inquiries is that no one knows the place of Lianyun Mountain at all. Now that he has gone deep into the Western Regions Plateau, although he can distinguish between the southeast and the northwest, he doesn’t know how to go on.

At the moment when Hailong was lost, a figure entered his line of sight. The person was slowly advancing. Every few steps he would inevitably fall a somersault, but he would immediately get up and move on again, as if he had some obsession. It seemed to support his body. Suddenly seeing a figure on this empty land, Hailong couldn’t help feeling happy, his figure floated up, and greeted the man. As he got closer, he could see the appearance of the man clearly. He was a middle-aged man in his forties. He looked very embarrassed. He covered his face with a tousled hair like weeds. The clothes on his body looked like When Hailong met the Yuhua sisters, they were so shabby and turned into strips. The bare hands were all traces of sunburn, and the skin was dry and cracked with fine lines like a dead tree.

Floating in front of the middle-aged man, Hailong asked, “Uncle, what’s the matter with you?” The middle-aged man’s appearance has already aroused his compassion.

Hearing the voice of the middle-aged man, he raised his head violently. Hailong couldn’t help taking a breath when he saw his appearance. The middle-aged man’s face was covered with rotten sores, and the dry tawny traces looked very disgusting. . There was no expression in his cloudy eyes. When he saw Hailong, he suddenly shouted sharply: “Get out, get out of here, stay away from me.”

Hailong was shocked, stepped back subconsciously, and tentatively asked, “Uncle, what’s wrong with you? Can I help you? I have water and food here.”

The middle-aged man’s body trembled, and tremblingly shouted in his hoarse voice: “No, no, get out of the way, quick, stay away from me, I don’t need your help. Get out of it.” His voice was full of desolation. Looking at him in such a miserable situation, Hailong couldn’t help but remember his previous experience of being oppressed, and he could no longer hide himself. He strode forward to the middle-aged man and reached out to grab him. The middle-aged man seemed to have seen something terrifying, and his body retreated abruptly, but he was obviously already very weak. He staggered and fell to the ground, and Hailong’s grasp naturally fell through.

“Don’t touch me, stay away from me, do you want to die?” The middle-aged man’s voice became more stern.

海龙疑惑的道：“大叔，我没有恶意，我只是想帮助你而已啊！在这片广阔的土地上，如果你再继续走下去，会死的。”

中年人眼中流露出一丝凄凉，喃喃的说道：“死，是啊！死，我就是想死啊！你快离我远点吧。我中了尸毒，有很强的传染力，我不能害了你。如果被感染了，你也会变成像我这样的。别管我，赶快离开这里。”

“尸毒？尸体上的毒么？大叔，你能不能告诉我是怎么回事，说不定我能救的了你，我不过去，就在这里听。给，你先喝点水。放心吧，这水袋就送给你了，同样的我还有许多，你不必介意。”说着，他将自己的水袋扔了过去。

或许是感受到海龙发自内心的真诚，中年人似乎平静了许多，他确实渴了，一把抓起水袋，咕噜咕噜的喝了起来，半袋子水很快进了他的肚子。喘息声渐渐平稳，中年人又向后挪了几下身体，有些感激的看了海龙一眼，道：“年轻人，谢谢你。你是好人。”

海龙第一次听到有人称自己是好人，心中顿时升起一丝奇异的感觉，他本来并不是一个爱管闲事的人，但之前被中年人勾起了回忆，所以才下定决心要帮助他。微微一笑，道：“大叔，告诉我是怎么回事。我可不是普通人哦，说不定，我真的能帮上你。”为了显示自己的强大，海龙左手一挥，用血八卦发出一道红色的能量，顿时在旁边不远处的地面上炸出一两尺深的浅坑。

中年人惊讶的看着海龙，道：“你，你这是？好吧，反正我也快死了，就说出来给你听好了。不过，你要答应我，听完我的故事后，立刻用你刚才发出的光芒把我打到那坑里，然后用土把我埋掉，如果可能的话，最好用火先烧了我的身体。”

从中年人的语气中，海龙听出了他对尸毒的恐惧，不置可否的道：“你先把你的事说出来，然后我自然会帮你。”

It has eaten all my relatives, my teeth have bitten out blood, my whole body is constantly twitching, and my heart is bleeding! It was only at this moment that I found the bite wound on my hand. I knew that I was also infected with corpse poison. In order not to hurt everyone, I wanted to rush into the sea of fire and go with my relatives. However, everyone didn’t let me die and pulled me hard. The chief also comforted me, saying that if I was bitten only a little bit, it might not happen. However, I knew he was just comforting me. As long as the corpse poison is contaminated a little, it will spread all over the body immediately. Although I am not dead and I still have consciousness, it is impossible to get rid of the corpse poison on my body. The next day, I ran out when no one was paying attention. I just wanted to run far away. I didn’t want to hurt anyone! I hate the zombie that killed my eldest son. He ruined our family. I have been out for three days. I don’t know why, but I am not dead. Young man, kill me, kill me. . I’m so painful, help me end my life. ”

A cold light flashed in the sea dragon’s eyes, and he said in a deep voice: “Are there zombies around your village? Could it be a ghoul? If it is an ordinary zombie, it is impossible to return to the tribe after your eldest son is killed. It must be a ghoul. Hmph, I’ll go back to the tribe with you, and I will definitely help you kill that ghoul to get revenge.” In Lianyun Mountain, Hailong once heard Lingyuzi talk about ghouls. The so-called ghouls are actually humans, but in order to pursue mana cultivation, they use specific methods to turn themselves into zombie-like creatures, but they have wisdom. For ghouls, the anger of living people and the corpses of zombies are their means. This kind of evil cultivator, even those in the evil way, don’t bother to fight against them. Achieve a not-weak cultivation base in ten years. Only the most evil people will choose this kind of cultivation method. Once the ghoul’s cultivation reaches a certain level, it will inevitably lead to the spread of corpses and poison, which is likely to bring devastating disasters to ordinary people. The story of the sauce made Hailong’s heart full of anger, and he recklessly promised to avenge him. At this time, he did not consider whether his cultivation level was enough to fight against the ghoul.

Sa Si froze for a moment and murmured: “No, I can’t go back. I have become like this now. If I go back, I will spread the corpse poison to everyone. I can’t go back. Thank you, young man, if If possible, you can avenge me. You can see our tribe if you walk west from here. The ghouls you said may be nearby.” After speaking, he slammed a sharp piece of the ground. The stone pierced hard into his throat. The yellow-green liquid flowed out of the wound, and life was quickly escaping from the sauce’s body little by little. Sa Si looked at Hailong. Although he was about to leave this world, he received Hailong’s promise, and there was a look of satisfaction in his eyes. With hope of revenge, he has no regrets anymore. The body crashed to the ground, and he went.

Hailong Muran stood there. In fact, he had enough time to stop the sauce just now, but he didn’t do that. Sa Si’s body has been completely corroded by the corpse poison, and even if the Heavenly Dao Zun is here, it may not be able to save him. Moreover, what can he do if he survives? The most cherished relatives are dead, and instead of letting him live alone, it is better to let them meet underground.

A layer of faint cyan light emerged around the sea dragon’s body, and red light beams continuously rushed out of the blood gossip. The corpse of the sauce was deeply buried by the sea dragon, and a new loess appeared abruptly in this vast plateau. Above. Taking out a small iron rod from his arms, Hailong took a deep breath, pushing his mana to the limit, turning it into a phantom and galloping in the direction pointed by the sauce. In the air, there was a crystal drop of water. The water droplets fell on the loess and quickly penetrated in. Everything was calm again, and the majestic caressed it, bringing a bit of depression. Perhaps, a few years later, on this embryonic loess, plants will take root and sprout. The great sentiment of self-sacrificing sauce will nourish them to thrive.
