Difference (from prior major revision) (no other diffs)

Changed: 3,4c3
In Chinese legends, corpses are transported over long distance to their home town for burial under the command of a wizard who can control the zombies to hop on their own feet. If a person were touched by a hopping zombie, he dies instantly. Imagine a column of zombies hopping along in the middle of the night. What a scary sight!
No one I know have seen such mode of transportation except in movies. However, my mother remembered there were such zombies passed by her village once in her childhood. Of course, she was too scared to go out to check what happened. Some people speculate that those zombies were just smugglers in disguise who wanted to scare off the law enforcement officers.
