Chapter Fifty-Seven: All Things Are Not Weary

  Zombie, gathering the resentment of heaven and earth, born in obscurity. Not old, not dead, not extinct, rejected by the three realms of heaven, earth and man, outside the six paths of all living beings, wandering without dependence, drifting away from home.

  The zombies tire of nothing and also do not enfold all things.

  But Fu Chuan did not expect that Mitsui Hiro would become a zombie, and it seemed that he should belong to the higher-level zombies. Fu Chuan took out all the records about zombies written by the former head of the Fu family and carefully studied them.

  Zombies are also divided into levels, and looking at their eyes, Li Baobao said that Mitsui Hiro's eyes were green.

  Fuhe flipped through a handwritten copy of the "Records of Zombies" by his ancestors from 100 years ago, which recorded that green-eyed zombies were not afraid of humans or livestock, extremely fast, and only feared sunlight.

  Fukawa wondered what level of zombie Sanoya Mitsui was, but Fukawa was more curious about how Sanoya Mitsui became a zombie in the first place and what had transformed him into one.

  Fujiang saw in the zombie records that zombies are different from foreign so-called vampires, vampires are people who become vampires, while zombies are dead and become, is it saying that Mitsui Hiroshi is already dead, how did he die, and how did he become a zombie.

  Many things are unclear to Fugou, but now he understands one thing: it's already difficult enough dealing with a flower child, and on top of that there's someone even more formidable than the flower child, Mitsui Hiroya - what should be done now?

  Fujiang continued to look at those dusty books, he had been learning the spells of exorcism and zombie control since childhood, but he had never seen a real zombie all his life, so what should he do now.

  Fu Jiang saw in the book that the last time the Fu family saw a zombie was 90 years ago in Yunnan, when a Burmese copper-armored zombie was transported from Burma to China, killing countless people. Later, it was captured and burned by the Fu family, which was also the last time the Fu family saw a zombie, since then there have been no zombies appearing in the world.

  Fu Chuan felt a bit depressed in his heart, why would he encounter such a difficult thing at this time. The compass was already spinning beside Fu Chuan, it seemed that even more difficult things were coming one after another.

  Fu Chuan was fiddling with the golden silk sachet in his hand, while Xun Yi was quietly sleeping inside. He wondered if he really should use Xun Yi to purify the entire Jiahe Building. Xun Yi's power was enough to destroy any living thing within the building, including humans. Fu Chuan couldn't bear to take so many lives. It wasn't that he couldn't ask Xiao Liu for help, but who would leave their home without reason? He feared that in the end, they wouldn't be able to come to an agreement.

  Fu's head was about to ache, the ghost said: "A green-eyed zombie scared you, are you still a member of the Fu family?"

  Fu Chuan asked it: "I'm not afraid of zombies, but what should I do?"

  "It should be done as it should be done, no need to hesitate."

  Fujiang didn't know what he should do either, but some things should be rethought from now on.

  Fuhe knew that the Jiahe Building could no longer withstand Mitsui Hiro and Hana, so rather than letting them continue to cause trouble in the building, it was better to let them out. Fuhe actually wanted to see what they were going to do.

  Fu Chuan knew that the seal on the Jiahe Building would be broken in about two days, so he chose not to intervene and just wait to see what would happen after Mitsui Hiro and Hana came out.

  Fujiang found it ironic that Hanzi, who was originally a victim, had finally become powerful, only to be turned around by her own enemy in the end.

  Fu Chuan flipped through the book, which recorded an event that took place in those years seventy years ago. It was written by Fu Chuan's grandfather, who was then the head of the Fu family.

  This matter was during the war years, when the Pus were safe in a corner, but many people died, and many of their fellow apprentices had to survive, and at that time, people like them didn't have any other skills, so they still had to rely on their own craftsmanship to survive.

  The book records that in those years, a good friend of Fu Chuan's grandfather actually practiced corpse selling to a Japanese collector for five dou of rice. Practicing corpse refers to the production of zombies.

  Before, Guan Jiang had heard elders in his family mention that refining corpses was a matter that greatly reduced one's yang lifespan.

  It is said that the man did many evil things in those years, and later he colluded with the Japanese to refine corpses. He even planned to sell the refined zombies to the Japanese and transport them back to Japan. Some people who knew about this matter chased him all the way to Guangxi, and finally burned the unrefined zombies with lychee wood, thus avoiding a disaster.

  In the Maoshan school, there is a method of refining corpses, but it is something that each sect is most taboo to mention. Fu Chuan found that book of the sect leader because on one page of the book of the sect leader, there was a record of how to practice corpse refinement.

  The book records that the first is to select a corpse, which must be a person with a yin destiny, and the corpse died on a broken day or at a yin time, for the purpose of refining the corpse.

  The second is to stop the corpse, which means to place the selected corpse in a cool and dark place. The general time required is that it should not exceed ten days in summer, and can be longer in winter. During this period, the corpse must not be damaged at all. Later, the only requirement was that if the time reached, the stopped corpse had no odor of decay, it was considered qualified and could be used.

  The next step is the third step of bathing the corpse, which is to use clean water to wash the body of the selected corpse.

  The fourth is the most important step, choosing a place to raise the dead, which must be a four-yin place. Generally, in Feng Shui, it is a broken and defeated formation, a killing and injuring trend with strong Yin energy, belonging to the death gate among the eight gates.

  After selecting a suitable location, burn the earth talisman and recite incantations. Dig a pit three feet deep, then place the corpse inside. Take a rooster, kill it, and sprinkle its blood on the corpse. Next, place a yin bagua on the corpse's heart to help absorb the yin energy. Cover with soil, but the surface of the covered earth should not exceed the ground level.

  The Fifth Corpse

  After completing the above procedures, every day thereafter, three times in the morning, noon and evening, burn the corpse talisman and recite incantations at the burial site. Since noon is the time when yang energy is strongest, every day at noon when refining the corpse, a rooster must be killed, its blood splashed on the ground, and the burial site covered with fresh banana leaves to prevent yang energy from harming the corpse (when splashing blood, remember not to use dog's blood, because in Mao Shan Taoist rituals, dog's blood is used to break evil). After this work of refining, after a period of 77 days or 99 days, the entire process of refining the corpse can be completed.

  This is the practice of corpse refinement in Mao Shan, or in simpler terms, a method for creating zombies. Fu Chuan took out a string of copper coins from the bottom of the box, which were strung together with red thread to form a mask. The copper coins on it had already rusted. According to the book, after passing through the hands of over 10,000 people, the copper coins carried a strong yang energy. To suppress the zombies and control their movements, one only needed to hang the copper coin masks on their faces.

  Let's get back to the story. Fu Chuan looked at the records in the book, and it turned out that when his clansman tried to practice corpse refinement back then, he almost succeeded, but was ultimately bound by Fu Chuan's grandfather with a magical rope and burned to death. A zombie would only be considered complete if it could move on its own; if the practice failed and the zombie couldn't move, it would just be a dead body. That was also the last time someone from the Fu family saw an incomplete zombie.

  In that era, there were too many killings and disasters, so there weren't many zombies, but they could be found. The symbol of the zombies was disaster and plague, their appearance represented a desolate land, where people struggled to survive.

  Fukawa knew that killing Mitsui Hiroga was his mission, Fukawa continued to study the contents of the book.

  The Palm Gate Book records that many years ago, the Fu family collected zombies. This made Fu Chuan read it repeatedly without getting tired of it. In this life, Fu Chuan has a dream, which is to personally collect a zombie.

  But he has been the successor for so long, and he still doesn't have that kind of luck.

  Fu Jiang looked at the book, which recorded that a thousand years ago in the Tang Dynasty, his ancestors had once subdued a flying corpse. The flying corpse was a kind of zombie, but it was much more advanced than other types of zombies. They were almost all cultivated for thousands of years to become flying corpses. Flying corpses were almost indistinguishable from humans, with boundless magical powers, but they still needed blood to fill their bellies. Almost no living thing could rival them, except dragons, which were their only natural enemies. Their only flaw was that they couldn't speak, and even stones hadn't been cultivated successfully yet.

  The book records that the flying corpse was actually taken in by a peasant family as an abandoned child, and later married the daughter of the family who took him in, living a peaceful life. However, he couldn't speak, but later, strange events occurred in the village where people were bitten to death by unknown creatures. Although these events were a big deal in the isolated mountain village, everyone thought it was the work of wild beasts and didn't suspect the flying corpse until its thirst for blood finally led it to attack humans. Only then did they capture the monster, but it couldn't be killed by fire or drowning, and eventually escaped. On the night of the full moon, it came down from the mountain to take revenge, bathing the entire village in blood.

  At that time, China had long since lost the dragon. The dragon was recorded in the Palm Gate Book, and it disappeared more than 2,000 years ago. Two thousand three hundred years ago, the ancestors of the Fu family saw the last dragon die by the river with their own eyes. This matter is also very strange, but there is no excessive record in the Palm Gate Book.

  When Pofu's ancestor rushed over, the flying corpse had stopped its slaughter. At that time, he was holding his wife who had been bitten to death by him and crying, without knowing what he was thinking in his heart.

  When he and the Pheasant family fought, the heavens changed, the sun and moon lost their light. Many people died when they subdued this flying corpse, it's said that many of his fellow sect members fell in battle. Logically speaking, no matter how many people there were, they couldn't defeat the flying corpse. The power of a flying corpse is almost divine, humans don't have the strength to resist a zombie that has been excluded from the six paths of reincarnation.

  The book does not record how this flying corpse was finally subdued. The last word left in the book is: one word is hard to say.

  At this point, Fu Chuan wanted to scold his mother!

  The book finally recorded a creature, the highest level of zombies, without a name, but it can be seen that Fuhe's ancestors gave him many pens and inks, and there is no lack of praise, and also has regrets.

  The book records that this last kind of zombie can tread on waves and ride clouds, is not afraid of sunlight, and eats dragons. Even a divine beast like the Qilin is only suitable as its mount. They are as carefree as immortals, and they no longer need to rely on drinking blood to sustain their lives. They rival the sun and moon in brilliance, and they live as long as heaven and earth. It's said that this kind of zombie needs to cultivate for 100,000 years to become one. If Jiangshi is the god of war among zombies, then this zombie is the emperor of the zombie world.

  This zombie has been the only one since ancient times, and it is said that it was born between heaven and earth at the beginning of heaven and earth. Later, other zombies were all his descendants, and he is the ancestor of zombies.

  Fujiang has never seen it, and his ancestors probably have.

  However, when he turned to the last page of a book called "Zombie Strange News", there was a surprise, and Fu Chuan finally knew the benefits of reading more books.

  There are also records of this zombie in the real book. The book records that it appeared 4,000 years ago, and it is said that it was awakened by the war between Shang and Zhou. With just a light touch of its finger, tens of thousands of soldiers disappeared into the vast swamp.

  If Fu Chuan wasn't mistaken, this guy was definitely a god of death. Every time he appeared, it would inevitably lead to a massacre, and yet he didn't even realize it himself, then continued to sleep soundly.

  I don't know where this thing is hiding and sleeping now, the book records that this zombie once had a big battle with Nuwa's brother, Renwang Fuxi, and that heavenly cave was broken by his one punch.

  It is also said to be related to Fuxi and Nüwa.

  Fu Chuan thought he was watching a myth, but Fu Chuan thought it was great to watch. Although he estimated that he would never be able to see such mythical figures in his lifetime, he just treated it as a myth to watch.

  Fu Jiang finally finished watching and summarized that in the future, those zombies who were abused by the Fu family all had a very awesome ancestor, but they encountered even more awesome members of the Fu family.

  Fuhe has always been very interested in the history of the Fu family, but he can't get his hands on the Fu family tree that is kept in a bank safe deposit box because only when he has been the head of the household for more than five years will he be qualified to understand the history of the Fu family.

  Hospital

  After several days of recuperation, Li Baobao has recovered a lot. Ping'er has been taking care of her all along and feels that her master is really disappointed with Master Chuanshu. In the past few days, she didn't even ask about him, and now it's been several days, but she hasn't asked about him at all. Moreover, these days, Li Baobao either ignores her or pretends to sleep, making Ping'er shoo people away.

  "Master, can Master's wife defeat that zombie this time?" Tong'er brought up a topic to say, Li Baobao said he didn't know and also said: "Don't mention that person in front of me again."

  Li Baobao really didn't want to hear Fu Chuan's words and didn't want to keep thinking about Fu Chuan, so Ping'er finally stopped talking.

  Just then, the doctor walked in. The doctor was tall and handsome with a strong facial features, which made Li Baobao feel comfortable and pleased.

  "How are you? Have you felt better in the past few days?" the doctor asked.

  Li Baobao nodded, "I'm much better now, when can I be discharged from the hospital."

  The doctor smiled and said, "Don't worry, it will take some time."

  Bottle told Li Baobao that Dr. Jiang seemed to have a crush on Li Baobao, as he came in person every time and even changed the dressing himself.

  Li Bao was distracted and his gaze involuntarily drifted towards the door, but Fu Chuan had not arrived yet.

  Li Baobao has been thinking seriously about some things lately, just like she thought, not wanting to be a fortune teller anymore. She wants to do something normal, the property left by her family is enough for her to live without worries for several lifetimes. However, she can't always not work, so she wants to find a job. She has considered being a nurse, but she's too old. She thought about going to an office building to find a job, but apart from spending money shopping, she doesn't know how to type, and her typing speed is even slower than a bottle cap.

  She was also thinking about what she could do, it seemed that apart from fortune-telling and divination, she couldn't do anything else. If she really had to go out and find a job, she didn't know if others would hire someone who couldn't do anything.

  Li Baobao's long-held wish was to become Fu Chuan's wife, but now it seems that this wish is unlikely to come true. She can't force someone to marry her at the cost of their own life, she isn't that cheap or shameless, and doesn't have a thick enough face to insist on marrying Fu Chuan. Moreover, Fu Chuan is such a coward, he won't dare to marry her even if he loves her.

  Moreover, Li Baobao knew that she loved Fu Chuang in her heart, but she couldn't forget the things Fu Chuang had done with those women before.

  Inside the Baohua Building at this time——

  Fujiang read books for a whole night, got tired and fell asleep on the table. When he woke up, it was almost afternoon. He clearly remembered that he was supposed to go to the hospital to see the baby today, but now he just woke up and would probably be met with a cold face if he went now.

  Fuhe knew he would definitely be met with a cold face for a while, but he still had to go.

  After washing up simply, Fu Chuan changed his clothes and went out.

  As he pulled the car out of the parking lot, Fu Chuan was about to drive onto the road when he suddenly saw Mitsui Hiro standing on the opposite side of the street. Mitsui Hiro was wrapped up tightly, wearing sunglasses and a mask, and even holding an umbrella. He was afraid of sunlight. Fu Chuan stopped the car and got out.

  The location of Mitsui Hiroga Station is just below the Furong Building, he pointed to the Furong Building, his intention was already very clear, he wanted to be unfavorable to Li Baobao, this was a provocation to Fu Chuan.

  Fu Xiang was about to walk over, but just as he took a step forward, Mitsui Hiroga appeared in front of him like a gust of wind.

  He was very close to Fuyukawa, and Fuyukawa found that the old Mitsuya Hirosi no longer existed. He had become young, just like Fuyukawa.

  Even his skin and hair had become younger, the previous white-haired bun had turned into a dark color, he said: "Do you know how long I've been waiting for this day?"

  "I don't know." Fu Chuan pretended to be calm, but in fact he had never been in such close proximity to a zombie before. However, one thing Fu Chuan was certain of was that there must be something else inside Mitsui Hiro's body, and he was absolutely not a pure zombie. A pure zombie would never look like him.

  "Sixty years, a full sixty years." Mitsui Hiroga said, although with a mask on, his voice wasn't very clear, but Futakawa still heard it clearly.
