Chapter 673: The Corpse Carrier

At this moment, Ye Xuan had already brought Zhou Youwei and his party to a plain.

It's said to be a plain, but it's actually not.

Because there are many graves on this plain.

The various tomb markers were shaking and looked very eye-catching.

"Brother-in-law, is this the corpse of the person carrying the corpse you mentioned?" Zhou Bingyi stood behind, a little scared and said.

"Yes." Ye Xuan nodded slightly.

The corpse-carrying man is an extremely ancient and mysterious existence.

In every major forbidden area, there are corpse carriers.

But the person carrying the corpse rarely appeared in front of the ten people.

Because they contain very strong corpse energy, once a living being is contaminated, it will be corroded.

Those with low strength may even lose their intelligence and turn into unconscious zombies.

It can also be called a zombie.

"Does this corpse-carrying person always carry corpses?" Ye Hao touched his chin and asked curiously.

To be honest, this was the first time he heard of such existence.

Following Brother Xuan into the Hengduan Mountains, I encountered too many magical things.

For example, the mountain ghost before, or the corpse-carrying man now.

Never heard of it before, let alone seen it.

Ye Hao's words also revealed the thoughts of others.

They didn't know much about the corpse-carrying people either.

Ye Xuan said slowly: "Do you think it's easy to carry a corpse?"

Everyone looked puzzled and asked, is it difficult to carry a corpse?

Ye Xuan naturally knew what everyone was thinking. He smiled slightly and said: "The corpse you are talking about is a mortal body. For example, if a normal person carries the corpse of a three-meter-long demon tiger, can he carry it?

?”

"For another example, can a normal person carry a mountain of corpses on his back?"

"Eh? Shan's body?" At this time, everyone who was already doubtful became confused again.

Are there still bodies on the mountain?

Huang Yue was the only one who nodded with deep understanding and said: "Shan's corpse cannot be carried on his back."

Others don't know, but as a person of the Shanshen Tao who deals with mountains every day, he knows better than anyone else that the corpse of this mountain really exists.

All things have spirits, and mountains are no exception.

When the mountain dies, there will naturally be corpses.

"The highest state of a corpse-carrying person is to carry a corpse to the sky." Ye Xuan said calmly.

"Back to heaven?"

Everyone was stunned again.

"Let me ask, who in this world can walk with a sky on his back? A person who can carry a corpse can." Ye Xuan said.

The inheritance of the corpse-carrying people is extremely ancient, not even shorter than the Mountain Shinto.

Even though everyone in the rear no longer understood the person carrying the corpse, they also understood a lot after hearing Ye Xuan's words.

Is this the person carrying the corpse?

Strong!

At this moment, there was a sudden noise from ahead.

When everyone heard the voice, they turned around and their eyes froze.

Not far ahead, I saw an earthen grave being dug up.

Immediately afterwards, a figure emerged from the earthen grave, and behind him, there was a corpse on his back!

"Eh?"

This scene is confusing.

"How did this corpse-carrying man climb out of the grave?" Everyone was very puzzled.

Even Huang Yue looked stunned.

This was the first time he had seen it.

Ye Xuan put his hands in his pockets and said with a smile: "The people who carry the corpse have a tradition. When they carry the corpse, they will dig up the grave, bury themselves in it, and bury themselves with the corpse for ninety-nine and eighty-one days. With the permission of the owner of the corpse,

Only under certain circumstances will they climb out with the corpse on their backs, and then walk around the world to fulfill the corpse owner's last wishes. The more wishes they fulfill, the greater the power they will gain from the corpse owner during his lifetime."

"To put it bluntly, this is a transaction. Otherwise, why do you think they would carry the body for no reason?"

Carrying corpses is actually a very unique way of cultivation.

Just like the Mountain Shinto, their cultivation methods are different from ordinary monks.

They rely on worshiping mountains and canonizing mountain gods to make themselves stronger.

As for those who carry corpses, they rely on carrying corpses to gain cultivation.

With the permission of the corpse owner, they will carry the corpse on their backs and walk around the world to fulfill the corpse's last wish.

The more wishes they complete, the greater their strength will be.

If a corpse-carrying person is powerful enough to help an emperor-level figure fulfill his last wish, then they will carry the emperor's body and walk around the world, eventually achieving emperor-level strength.

This is an extremely alternative way of cultivation.

But few people would choose to take the path of carrying corpses.

Because this road is very difficult to walk, and their own actions are to deal with the dead, which leads to them having a natural enemy.

Yin dog!

That is, the guide to the underworld.

In the world, those who lead the way to death are the two most hated types: corpse-carriers and coffin-bearers.

Putting aside the coffin bearers, the grudges between the corpse bearers and the guides to the underworld have lasted for countless eras.

From the moment the corpse-carrying man was born, this ending was destined.

In addition, they will also be involved in various causes and effects because they fulfill the corpse owner's last wish.

The most difficult thing to break in the world is the cycle of cause and effect.

Including Ye Xuan now, no one can escape the cycle of cause and effect.

If you want to become a corpse carrier, you must be prepared to be contaminated by many causes and effects in advance.

After everyone heard Ye Xuan's words, they all suddenly realized.

It turns out that this is the case.

Carry corpses and fulfill last wishes to gain cultivation.

This was completely beyond their knowledge.

"So, if someone comes to you in the future, don't be surprised. It must be the person carrying the body who is fulfilling his last wish. Of course, they will definitely not reveal their identity as the person carrying the body."

Ye Xuan said with a smile.

He spent a lot of time as a corpse carrier back then.

But this is all because of that guy, the Lord of the Buried Emperor. During those years, he couldn't control his body and could only obey the orders of the Lord of the Buried Emperor.

During those years, Ye Xuan also learned a lot.

He is very familiar with the lineage of corpse-carrying people.

Under the gaze of everyone, the person carrying the corpse in the corpse field climbed up from the earthen grave, carried the corpse on his back, ran wildly over the corpse field, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

You don’t need to think about it to know that the corpse-carrying man went to fulfill his last wish.

"Is this the person carrying the corpse..."

It was an eye-opener for everyone.

"What about the papermaker, brother-in-law?" Zhou Bingyi was very excited after seeing the legendary corpse-carrying man.

Ye Xuan told her too many things before.

The body bearer, the coffin bearer, the paper maker.

It is said that in Hengduan Mountain, in addition to the corpse carriers, there are also papermakers.
