No, it's just a ghost in folklore, which originated in the Ming and Qing Dynasties and was found in Yuan Mei's "Woods Language" and Ji Xiaolan's "Yuewei Caotang Notes" in the Qing Dynasty. Before that, the explanation of zombies in China's ancient books only refers to the simple meaning of zombies. Zombies described in early classical literature are completely different from the jumping corpses we see in today's movies.

Zombie legend:

Ancient zombies died without being stiff, and they did not rot even after opening coffins for many years. The ancients thought it was related to the geomantic omen of the tomb and the death of the deceased. In fact, there is some truth in this.

For many ancient people, it was often necessary to stop for a long time before burial. At that time, in order to prevent the corpse from rotting, some anti-corrosion measures were often adopted. If the anti-corrosion measures benefit, it is possible that the body will not rot for a long time. Of course, this kind of thing will not be explained voluntarily, so some future generations mistakenly think that the body has become a zombie.

When dealing with the tombs of ancient nobles, anti-corrosion measures are often taken. Ma Wangdui and other female bodies are soaked in liquid. Liquid can effectively isolate the air, and it is also a preservative, so that the body will not rot for a long time. These tombs were discovered by later generations and were often regarded as zombies in ancient times when science was underdeveloped.
