Chapter 3251 Three-fold Defense

When the female wizard saw the situation of the Jin family, she knew that she couldn't handle it alone, so she came over to discuss with us what to do next.

The witch, who had been extremely arrogant before, now looked somewhat amiable.

Xiaopang and I couldn’t understand what the female wizard was saying. He was discussing this matter with Yang Tianxiao.

What the witch meant was that they should first find a way to carry the coffin down the mountain, find a safe place to properly place it, and then find a way to destroy it. It was raining so heavily now that it didn't look like it would stop for a while.

Yang Tianxiao asked for my opinion, and I also thought this method was feasible, so I agreed.

In the pouring rain, the bodyguards of the Jin family and the hired workers secured the coffin and tied it with ropes. Seven or eight people carried the coffin and then headed down the mountain.

The witch and her apprentices led the way in front, and we walked down the mountain with difficulty.

Because of the heavy rain, the mountain roads were slippery and everyone was soaked. We were relatively okay, but those who were carrying the coffins were in a miserable situation. If they were not careful, the coffins might fall to the ground and all the people would be in danger of rolling down the mountain.

There were dark clouds overhead, with lightning and thunder, and the rain was getting heavier. There was pitch darkness between the sky and the earth, and it felt like the rain would never stop.

The way down the mountain was very difficult. We stopped and walked along the way. It took two or three hours before we finally got down the mountain.

But after we got down the mountain, the rain showed no sign of stopping, and it was impossible to place the coffin directly at the bottom of the mountain.

At this time, Jin Yuanxun came over and told us that there was a deserted village nearby with many houses. We could temporarily place the coffin there and everyone could take shelter from the rain.

After going down the mountain, the situation was much better because many cars drove over. A group of people put the coffin directly on the roof of a car and slowly drove towards the direction of the village with the coffin.

After about twenty minutes, we arrived at the deserted village. It seemed that the village had been abandoned for many years and there was no one in it.

We parked the car in front of the gate of a large courtyard in the village, carried the coffin down and placed it in the hall of the house.

Everyone was in a mess and was soaked.

Moreover, after the heavy rain, the temperature dropped a lot and many people were sneezing constantly.

After putting down the coffin, the female witch found me and Yang Tianxiao again to discuss how to place the coffin.

With the help of Yang Tianxiao's translation, we can still communicate normally.

The witch's attitude towards both of us became much nicer, mainly because she was worried that she couldn't handle it alone.

What I mean is that we must use talismans that can control zombies to seal the coffin to prevent the zombies from transforming and allowing the evil creatures to escape from the coffin.

Yang Tianxiao said that he could set up a magic circle to serve as a defense.

The witch said that the coffin must be burned as soon as possible. The evil things in the coffin were unusual, and ordinary fire would not be enough. Her master once taught her a set of methods to refine the Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire. This kind of fire is indestructible and can melt steel in an instant. It is specifically designed to restrain evil things. However, the Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire must be refined tomorrow at the earliest. Tomorrow, the coffin and the evil things in the coffin can be burned with the Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire.

After hearing what the female wizard said, I really missed the sloppy Taoist priest. The method he practiced was of fire attribute. Not to mention the Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire, he could even produce the Ziwei Heavenly Fire.

Besides, the sloppy Taoist priest didn't have to put in so much effort; burning the coffin was just a piece of cake.

As the saying goes, every profession has its specialties. I don’t know how to refine this kind of flame, so I can only wait until the next day to burn it.

After the discussion, we started to divide the work and cooperate with each other. I took out cinnabar and a brush from the Dragon-Tiger Mirror and started to draw various runes to restrain zombies on the coffin, while Yang Tianxiao set up a magic circle around the coffin.

This magic circle is also for emergency situation.

If this zombie really jumps out of the coffin, it will be controlled by the magic circle, so we will have enough time to find a way to deal with this zombie.

As for the female wizard and her disciples, they settled down in a nearby courtyard and began to prepare to refine the Nine Heavens Mysterious Fire. It would take them until tomorrow morning to refine it, which was really tiring.

I used cinnabar to draw runes to restrain zombies all over the coffin. In the end, I still felt uneasy, so I took out the ink line and asked Xiaopang to cooperate with me to put black marks all around the coffin. Countless black ink line marks covered the coffin tightly, just like a lot of black ropes tied up the coffin.

I had just finished my work here when Jin Yuanxun and his father Jin Dayu came over. Jin Yuanxun said he had to go home first as he had just been caught in the rain. His wife seemed to have caught a cold and the old man was not feeling well either. He would come back early tomorrow morning.

Jin Yuanxun apologized for this matter and said that we would just have to endure it for one night and he would send someone to bring us some daily necessities later.

There was no need for people from the Jin family here, so Yang Tianxiao exchanged a few words with them and let them leave.

However, when Jin Yuanxun left, he left his bodyguards behind, saying that they would look after the coffin at night.

I was drawing talismans and working with ink lines just now, and I consumed a lot of spiritual energy. After finishing all the work, Yang Tianxiao and I left the yard. After returning, I had to change into clean clothes. My underwear was soaked and I felt very uncomfortable.

Even if I use my true Qi to dry it, it still feels a bit uncomfortable.

Before leaving, Yang Tianxiao specifically told Jin Yuanxun's bodyguards not to get close to the coffin. If there was any disturbance, they should call us over as soon as possible, as we lived in the yard next door.

After giving the instructions, a few of us went to a courtyard next door.

After I got back, I took out two sets of clothes from the Dragon-Tiger Mirror and gave them to Yang Tianxiao and Xiaopang respectively. I also changed into another set myself and immediately felt much more comfortable.

After cleaning up, I looked towards the yard. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, with no sign of stopping. It was accompanied by rumbling thunder. Every time there was thunder, I got very panicked.

I remember that the last time I overcame the tribulation, I was with Yang Tianxiao. Every time I go out with Yang Tianxiao, I feel that something big happens. It seems that I should go out less with this guy in the future.

Looking at the heavy rain in the yard, I always feel very panicked.
