The yellow talisman passed through Kong Xuyang's side, Kong Xuyang turned sideways and caught it with his two fingers, swiped the runes on it and snorted, "A low level Yin Corpse talisman?"

"Bai Liu is dreaming more and more beautifully." Kong Xuyang smiled contemptuously and coldly, trying to use a mere corpse charm to break free from the net I had set up, to turn around and control the yin creature I was driving?"

After Kong Xuyang's two fingers twitched, the two yellow talismans he held in his hands ignited without wind, emitting a blue-purple flame, and soon turned into ashes, he sneered: "You are simply delusional, such a small amount of Yin energy is too much to feed to the ghosts."

Yellow talismans kept coming out of the cracks in the tomb door, flying all around, only to be intercepted and then burnt by Kong Xuyang.

The disdain and amusement on Kong Xuyang's face became more and more obvious: "Dying for nothing, it's almost a quarter to twelve."

"Bai Liu, they're going to be trapped in the underworld forever, aren't they?" Yang Zhi stared at the gap in the tomb door, he should have been relieved, but for some reason he was getting more and more nervous, cold sweat was oozing from the corners of his forehead, his lips were white and dry, " Brother Kong, is there really no solution to that yin and yang charm?"

Kong Xuyang gave Yang Zhi a strange look, "You've played Yinshan Village too, don't you know that the Daoist use setting in this copy is about Daoism and karma?"

"According to the setting of this game, the Yin-Yang Crossing Talisman is an evil spell, if you use it, you are either lucky enough to escape at the exact moment when the Yin-Yang Crossing Talisman expires, but we are now guarding the tomb door, Bai Liu and trapped by my trap, it is difficult to fly."

"Either an extremely profound Taoist Maoshan Daoist has solved the charm spell, but such a person simply does not exist at this point in the progress of this copy, and according to the Taoist setting, those who have used the evil spell will definitely be reversed, like Bai Liu, who is now being reversed."

"We're about to win, what are you nervous about?"

Yang Zhi forced a smile as he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "As well."

Although Yang Zhi knew in his heart that this was indeed the case, for some reason the feeling of unease grew stronger in him.

Kong Xuyang, with a casual posture, watched with amusement as the corpse charm continued to burst out of the doorway, then didn't even bother to stop it, glanced down at his watch, hooked the corners of his mouth and began to count down slowly: "Ten."

"Nine."

Yang Zhi was so flustered that he couldn't help but interrupt Kong Xuyang's countdown, " Brother Kong, why don't we go first, in case Bai Liu ......"

"What if what if?" Kong Xuyang rolled his eyes impatiently, "I don't understand what the hell you're afraid of, there's no way Bai Liu will ever turn over unless there's a deeply Taoist and decent Taoist priest to help ......"

Bai Liu's unhurried voice came out of the tomb door, "Eight."

Yang Zhi and Kong Xuyang both pause as they slowly turn their heads to look at the tomb door.

Bai Liu counted down clearly again, "Seven."

Yang Zhi took a step back with a face full of horror and pointed at the tomb door, " Brother Kong, Bai Liu is also counting down!"

"Just bluffing, what's the point of running!" Kong Xuyang held Yang Zhi's shoulders down to stop him from stepping back and stared viciously at the slit in the tomb door, "I want to see what he's up to - four."

Bai Liu's voice was calm: "Three."

"Two." Kong Xuyang pooh-poohed, his tone grim, "Don't worry, we'll just wait to win."

Bai Liu said faintly, "One."

As the last countdown fell and the quarter past twelve was reached, a grey and gloomy colour spread rapidly from both sides of the tomb passage, and the baby-like giggles of the paper figures and the delicate laughter of the bride became piercing, seemingly from far away, through the tomb door.

"Treat your guests to the road to the underworld, live in a house of the underworld and become a household of the underworld!"

These shadowy creatures seem to be dragging Bai Liu and Mu Sicheng into the tomb, making the sounds of clothes rubbing together and the soles of their shoes stomping on the ground.

Mu Sicheng struggled, "Get out! Let go of me and Bai Liu!!!"

Kong Xuyang was overjoyed: "It's done!"

Yang Zhi breathed a long sigh of relief and was also overflowing with joy: " Brother Kong, we win ......"

Before Yang Zhi could finish the word "win", a red light burst out of the tomb door, and a deafening, loud sound came out of the door.

The sound jumped and jumped and jumped making the ground vibrate hard, like an object of great weight jumping up and down repeatedly on the ground, smashing the underground catacombs and shaking the ground from side to side.

Kong Xuyang and the others swayed several times with the shaking. Kong Xuyang held onto the wall in time to stabilize himself, while Yang Zhi was directly shaken and sat on his butt. What the hell is this? Is there such a thing in the tomb?

The gloomy grey that had covered the door of the tomb faded for a moment, and the paper figures and bride inside let out a thin, fearful discussion, before the sound of broken steps and paper rang out as if they were fleeing.

Kong Xuyang's expression changed dramatically: "What's going on? How did the Yin-Yang Roadmap talisman get unlocked? There is no way Bai Liu could have unlocked this talisman!"

"There's no living person in this book in Yinshan Village who can solve the Maoshan evil spell!" Kong Xuyang's mind was in turmoil as he took several steps back in front of the tomb door that kept appearing cracks, "The only npc Ma Daoist who could possibly give up his body to solve the evil spell was driven away by me in the opening chapter! What happened?!"

The brick door of the tomb cracked open inch by inch with the shaking, and a blinding red light cracked inside, and a hoarse, low roar, almost like a beast awakening, came from afar, and with it a chilling gust of darkness filled the back of the neck.

The tomb door shattered open and Bai Liu's pale face appeared behind it, two hidden fangs around his mouth as he looked at Kong Xuyang with a smirk: "You made a good trap, there are indeed no living Daoists here who can undo the evil spell."

"But there are Taoist ghosts that can undo evil spells." Bai Liu smiled, "Have you forgotten who this tomb was used to bury?"

Both Kong Xuyang and Yang Zhi were silent for a moment, then slowly, stiffly, they turned their heads towards Bai Liu.

Bai Liu held up the one that had been ridiculed by Kong Xuyang at first for the Yin Corpse spell, and smiled, "Such a little Yin ghost is indeed too much, but it is enough to awaken the master here."

Kong Xuyang looked incredulously behind Bai Liu at the approaching zombie dressed as a Taoist priest, leaping taller and taller with long, thick black nails on his flat hands.

The zombie was covered in freshly scribbled yellow talismans, almost all over its face, leaving only a pair of dark eyes and wrinkled, dry skin around the eyes, and those yellow talismans were none other than a nether corpse spell.

With just one look, Kong Xuyang knew that this thing was the most dangerous monster in the entire copy of Yinshan Village - the 100-year old Zombie Daoist.

The whole tomb with so many accompanying burials, so many village people died in Yinshan Village without entering the reincarnation, just to gather Yin Qi grievances to practice this one zombie.

Yang Zhi broke down first: " Bai Liu, are you crazy! Wake it up and we'll all die!"

"I know." Unmoved, Bai Liu shrugged his shoulders in regret, with an off-kilter smile on his face, "But I'm going to die anyway, and I figure it's better to drag you guys to my funeral since I'm here."

The paper figures, symbolising the gloom of the underworld, all scattered as the red glowing zombie daoist jumped closer, and when the zombie daoist was about to jump to the door of the tomb, a seemingly non-existent path crossed the path of the zombie's jump, stopping it from jumping further.

Kong Xuyang stared dead on, his heart leaping into his throat, "It's the Yin-Yang partition charm in effect!"

"Trap it!" Yang Zhi's face turned white with fear as she prayed with both hands that the talisman Bai Liu had drawn would work extremely well and trap the boss at the bottom of the level.

Damn, if this thing is really released, they still have nothing to play with, it's useless to run, wait for death!

The zombie daoist with yellow talismans all over its face exhaled a mouthful of white air visible to the naked eye, it slowly lowered its head for a moment, the pair of black and purple eyes looked down at the road, the nails of the index finger of the right hand turned slightly, looking at the movement seemed to draw talismans in the air and squeeze the trick.

"No way ......" Yang Zhi looked dumbfounded, "How does it remember all these daoist techniques even when it's dead?!"

"The Dao is profound, plus it is familiar with these feats." Bai Liu stroked his chin thoughtfully and smiled, "It seems to fit the bill for unlocking the charm?"

The watery diaphragm on that path broke after a final nod from the zombie daoist's nails, and, as expected, it sniffed the air twice and came this way towards Kong Xuyang without hesitation.

"Fuck!" Kong Xuyang cursed, pulling out a pile of yellow talismans and throwing them behind him while putting them on himself, turning and running, " Bai Liu, even if you get it out, you have no means of defence at all, you will be the first to die in a chase, not me!"

"I'll get through just the same when you're dead! Or I survive, or I win!"

Bai Liu's smile deepened and he asked softly in return, "Is that so?"

The next moment, as if he did not see Bai Liu and Mu Sicheng standing at the door, he jumped through the middle of them and went straight after Kong Xuyang and Yang Zhi who were running ahead of him.

Yang Zhi, who was chasing after Kong Xuyang, heard the sound of jumping behind him and turned his head to look at him. The vampire didn't chase Bai Liu and the others! It's coming straight after us!"

Kong Xuyang looked back, eyes wide, and couldn't hold back a scream as he frantically sprinkled yellow charms in his hands to stop the zombie who could have killed them with his fingernails if he had jumped again, "How could this happen?!"

Those yellow talismans would not have taken more than a few breaths in the hands of this profoundly Taoist zombie, and they too were all undone, and then proceeded to leap after them.

Looking at the distant backs of the zombie daoists and listening to the hysterical screams of Kong Xuyang and Yang Zhi, Mu Sicheng felt a little confused while feeling a sense of relief.

Mu Sicheng looked down in confusion at himself, who had completely returned to normal the moment the Yin-Yang Roadmap had failed, and turned his head to Bai Liu: "If this zombie daoist said it was after the living to kill Kong Xuyang and Yang Zhi, then why isn't this zombie daoist after us? We are now considered alive, and it is completely ignoring us."

"This Daoist zombie is not chasing after the living." Bai Liu looked calmly at the zombie daoist's departing back, "It's chasing after outsiders."

Mu Sicheng became more and more confused: "Outsiders? Do you mean people who are not from Yinshan Village? But if Kong Xuyang and the others are counted as outsiders, aren't we also outsiders?"

"Originally, we were outsiders too." Bai Liu's smiling eyes arched as he lovingly stroked Mu Sicheng's head, "But after you took more than thirty wives from Yinshan Village, we are no longer outsiders."

Mu Sicheng: "......"

Mu Sicheng pointed at the zombie's back and retorted in a stifled voice, "No, according to this, you didn't marry someone from Yinshan Village, right? You're an outsider too, so why didn't that zombie chase you?"

"What are you talking about, silly child?" Bai Liu's gaze grew more and more loving, "I officiated at your wedding, ate at your banquet, and haunted your bridal chamber, so of course I'm considered an elder in your mother's family, how can I be considered an outsider?"

Mu Sicheng: "......"
