Infinite Lucky Emperor
Chapter 71: weird
Although Cheng Huaiqian didn't have the talisman paper of this world, his sword had a devilish energy on it, which seemed to restrain evil spirits and could easily kill him.
Both of them found the correct way to deal with the enemies of this mission world, and they felt a lot more relaxed.
Seeing that Cheng Huaiqian could kill the evil spirit without sticking a talisman, the old white head was even more surprised and praised:
"Old Cheng is amazing, you don't even need an exorcism charm to hurt an evil spirit!" How much money would this save!
However, Cheng Huaiqian replied calmly, "It's nothing, I've run out of exorcism charms."
How did Lao Baitou know that even the word "exorcism charm" was just heard by Cheng Huaiqian from him? He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he was afraid that he would meet the legendary spirit-hunting warrior who cultivated asceticism, and respected that he did not rely on foreign objects to kill evil spirits.
At this time, the big-headed urn said angrily: "I have prepared spare exorcism charms. I can lend you them if you need them. You can also sell one of them to you."
Xia Ruize was still very curious about the exorcism, so he used a spirit stone to exchange a spirit expelling from the big head, and he pasted the exorcism on the Poyun Crossbow. Creatures will have additional damage].
The performance of this introduction in actual combat is that a crossbow nu arrow can kill an evil spirit, and it truly exerts the powerful attack power of the Poyun Crossbow as a yellow low-quality weapon.
It can be seen that there is still a big difference between sticking and not sticking the exorcism charm.
With this exorcism talisman, the evil spirits close by can be killed with a sword, the evil spirits farther away can be killed with a single arrow, and the evil spirits in the distance can be swept away by Xia Ruize's mental power.
The powerful strength that Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian gradually showed made Lao Baitou feel that he was lucky today, and the temporary teammates of this team were well recruited.
As they get farther and farther away from Ping An City, the number of evil spirits around them increases, and the Zhaoling lamp in Xiaonan's hands becomes bluer and brighter. Although it loses its warning function, it becomes a illuminating lamp. main force.
The light emitted by the lantern is blue, gloomy, and will outline the outline of the evil spirits, allowing humans to see the evil spirits around them clearly.
At the same time, due to the increase in the number of evil spirits, Xiao Nan also got the opportunity to attack, and even more cases of five people facing five or more evil spirits at the same time.
After seeing more evil spirits, Xia Ruize found that most of the evil spirits were not fixed in shape. To put it simply, they were irregular black shadows that grew into irregular shapes recklessly. Feelings are gone.
However, listening to the old baitou's words, these irregular black shadow-shaped evil spirits are the most common of the low-level evil spirits. They don't even have a special name, so they are called evil spirits. They can easily kill these low-level evil spirits. That doesn't mean it's safe outside the city at night.
When he realized that everyone in the team would encounter evil spirits from time to time, the old white man who was at the front slowed down his speed and took every step carefully.
He has always been cautious, not to mention that he brought his nephew with him this time, and he did not dare to be sloppy.
In comparison, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian, who were at the end, were in the most relaxed state.
The situation within fifty meters is under Xia Ruize's control. Cheng Huaiqian spreads out the demonic energy, and the area covered by his demonic energy is his attack area.
The two also gradually discovered several special low-level evil spirits mentioned by the captain of the defense team. After comparison, they found that the spirit stones and other low-level evil spirits exploded after the famous evil spirits were killed. It will be slightly different and more rounded.
Walking and walking, the old white head was puzzled. He was born in Ping An City and grew up in Ping An City. He is very familiar with the surrounding area. Even at night, he can roughly estimate how far he has traveled and where he is. .
According to his original speculation, reaching this position is the upper limit that their team can bear, and then they should stop and move laterally in order to find more evil spirits to kill.
But the actual situation is that he still feels at ease when he reaches the current position. Even if there are many evil spirits suddenly appearing, when he thinks that he will face a lot of pressure, the two teammates in the back will help solve it in time.
So that the old white head just slowed down his pace further, but did not stop continuing to move forward.
Unconsciously, the old white head saw a green line appearing on the ground in front of him. He looked surprised and quickly reminded:
"This is the cordon set by the city lord. After crossing this line, there may be intermediate-level evil spirits ahead. Shall we continue to walk?"
"Of course, keep going, it's still early."
Cheng Huaiqian replied as a matter of course, the low-level evil spirits were not enough for him to sharpen his knives, and he wanted to see the level of the middle-level evil spirits.
The old Baitou really hesitated. The spirit stones of the middle-level evil spirits are more valuable, and it is rare to find suitable teammates to walk here easily. It would be a pity not to continue to move forward.
And there shouldn't be many middle-level evil spirits near the cordon. If they don't go deep, it shouldn't be a big problem.
"I also support moving on."
The big-headed urn cast his vote angrily.
In the past, when forming a team out of the city, he was always at the forefront as the shield bearer, and he faced the greatest pressure from evil spirits, but today it was too smooth. When he was under a lot of pressure, not only did he not need to cover his teammates in the back. , the teammates in the back will help him share the pressure, so that the process of his battle tonight can be described as comfortable.
The opportunity is rare, and Datou is willing to continue to challenge it in depth.
Old Baitou made up his mind to move forward, but he still turned his head to observe the state of Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize, and repeatedly confirmed: "Old Cheng, Ozawa, you two are not one-star spirit hunting warriors, right now I feel the pressure. Is it big?"
"It's not too much pressure, you can keep going."
Cheng Huaiqian urged calmly.
The calmness of Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize gave Lao Baitou courage. He gritted his teeth and took the lead to cross the green line on the ground.
After walking for less than five minutes, a huge black shadow suddenly emerged from under Xiao Nan's feet and instantly completely surrounded Xiao Nan.
Cheng Huaiqian's long sword and Xia Ruize's long sword attacked one after another, and the old Baitou who reacted was in a hurry, raised the big sword and chopped it up, Hei Ying was successfully killed, but Xiao Nan was also frightened and sat on the ground, his teeth chattering constantly.
The little guy has not yet encountered a middle-level evil spirit in actual combat. After being entangled, he only felt cold and shivering.
Old Baitou deeply regretted that he was still greedy, and set up Xiaonan to go back:
"Everyone, let's stop here tonight, let's go back and forth."
"Want to go? I'm afraid it's not easy to go."
Cheng Huaiqian's tone was inexplicable, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he laughed playfully.
The upper half of his face was covered by a hood, and the smile on the corner of his mouth looked particularly eerie under the light of the firelight and the blue lantern. In this situation, Old Baitou froze in his heart, and immediately alerted Cheng Huaiqian.
However, Cheng Huaiqian threw the torch in his hand forward, and as the firelight passed by, everyone else saw that it was not the night that was particularly dark in front of him, but a dense array of evil spirits.
"We are surrounded by mid-level evil spirits."
In the panic of Lao Baitou, Xiaonan and Datou, Xia Ruize stated this fact in a flat tone.
Three minutes after crossing the cordon, Xia Ruize keenly noticed that the number of middle-level evil spirits around him suddenly increased.
He originally thought this was a normal situation, but it didn't take long to find out that the number of evil spirits they encountered in the low-level evil spirit area for nearly an hour, and they did not step into the middle-level evil spirit activity area five minutes later. They have a lot of evil spirits.
Xia Ruize immediately realized that this would not be normal.
"Everyone, I made a mistake in my judgment. If we can successfully escape back, I apologize to everyone!"
The old Baitou's voice was hoarse. He had always been cautious, and he never expected the current situation. The overwhelming middle-level evil spirits slowly approached them, and the outlines outlined by the blue Zhaoling lamp overlapped.
"According to your experience, shouldn't there be so many evil spirits here?"
It was clearly at a critical moment, but Cheng Huaiqian's voice was still unhurried, and asked with two points of curiosity, wanting to confirm the guess.
"Of course not! Don't worry about it, I'll start, let's rush out together!"
There was a little more urgency in Datou's voice, and he no longer used the exorcism talisman stingly. He pasted three exorcism talismans on his big shield in a row, and then signaled others to follow behind him, ready to rush out together.
"But you're looking in the wrong direction." Xia Ruize promptly stopped the big head who was about to rush forward, pointed to the ground under his feet in the eyes of the three aborigines, and explained, "There are evil spirits under our feet that will hold us here. The small area has turned around, so the direction you think of returning to the city is actually the direction of going deep."
As soon as Xia Ruize's words came out, Lao Baitou and Datou couldn't help shivering. They had fought against evil spirits for many years and had never heard of such a situation.
Common sense and trust in teammates clashed. Old Baitou and Datou looked at Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian, who were still calm in this situation, looked at each other, and finally decided to believe in years of experience. Under the current situation, they How do you see how you feel that your two teammates are a little weird.
Seeing that they insisted on rushing away from Ping'an City, Cheng Huaiqian laughed "haha", and Xia Ruize took his lover's hand soothingly and followed them together.
So, Datou opened the way with a shield in front, and Lao Baitou and Xiaonan followed closely behind and attacked hard from left to right, rushing forward together.
After that, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian released their weapons completely and launched a powerful attack on the surrounding evil spirits.
Before, the two of them had been walking behind their teammates honestly, and their movement skills had not been shown, but now after they let go of their hands completely, they were flickering among the evil spirits at a speed so fast that they could not even catch the evil spirits.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian did not retreat but advanced, and rushed straight into the surrounding evil spirits, and the middle-level evil spirits dissipated one after another.
Datou and Laobaitou ran fast for a minute, and after consuming one of the exorcism talismans, they finally realized that something was wrong. They were walking slowly when they came. According to their current running style, they should have seen that one long ago. Lu Yingying's warning line is right.
But in fact, they only saw more and more evil spirits around them, and they were shocked. Old Baitou and Datou realized that what Lao Cheng and Ozawa said might be true, and they were really unknowingly attacked by evil spirits. Confused about the direction.
Under the shock, the two subconsciously turned their heads to look for Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize. Fortunately, the two mysterious bigwigs did not abandon them, and their figures appeared and disappeared not far behind.
The reason why the figure of the big guy is hidden from time to time is because there are evil spirits blocking Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize from time to time, but they will soon be killed by them.
"Don't keep going?"
Cheng Huaiqian's voice came with a hint of regret.
The strength of the middle-level evil spirits is higher than that of the low-level evil spirits, and with more numbers, he is fighting to the point where he wants to continue to explore in depth, but the three seem to be sober and ready to return. .
Old Baitou and Datou heard black lines on their faces, but they still hurriedly ran in the direction of Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize, "Boss, let's go, let's go!"
"Let's go, go back early and ask where there are such exorcism charms, the effect is good, buy more."
Xia Ruize suggested to her lover in her heart. After the weapon is affixed with this kind of exorcism, the attack power of the weapon itself plus the effect of the exorcism will cause great damage to the evil spirits. It is very practical, and it is necessary to buy more spares.
Looking at the reactions of the old white head and the big head, the situation tonight was beyond their experience. Xia Ruize decided to restrain himself first out of prudence.
Xia Ruize spoke, but Cheng Huaiqian did not disagree. This time, the big head was still leading the way, Lao Baitou and Xiao Nan followed, and Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize were at the rear.
The so-called queen is to seize the opportunity to kill the surrounding middle-level evil spirits.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian were not uninjured. The result of the large number of evil spirits was that they would also be attacked by evil spirits.
However, the two have strong recovery ability, high physique, and high vitality. It is difficult for the evil spirit to cause too much damage to them. Even if the place where the evil spirit attacks will feel cold, but this feeling completely disappears within two seconds.
They dared to go straight to exchange injuries, but the evil spirits couldn't. The evil spirits were attacked, and their bodies became thin at light, and they were directly scattered in severe cases. They couldn't last the third round at all. Drop the spirit stone down.
While fighting, Xia Ruize had to take control of the overall situation and get back the spiritual stone that had fallen to the ground. He was really busy.
There were two big bosses blocking the evil spirits chasing from behind. Datou and Lao Baitou were running this time and saw the green cordon on the ground. Also less.
The two continued to run with Xiao Nan, and found that there were no evil spirits around. They turned their heads and found that Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian did not follow, and remained on the other side of the cordon, killing evil spirits continuously.
"Wow, Brother Cheng and Brother Ze are too strong. When can I be like them?"
Xiao Nan stopped following his uncle's pace, and cast envious glances at Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize. He also longed to be able to easily kill the evil spirits.
Old Baitou and Datou looked at each other, but they saw the bitterness in each other's eyes. This kind of strength cannot be acquired by time.
Although the two mysterious teammates did not take off their cloaks from the beginning to the end, they knew that they were young, yet so young and so powerful, talent and training were indispensable.
It might be the children of some aristocratic family who went out to practice, otherwise, the contradiction between the strength of the two, but the lack of experience seems to be inexplicable.
After killing the middle-level evil spirits who dared to chase after him, Cheng Huaiqian finally felt a little happy. He handed over the spiritual stone that he put away, and waited for the lovers to unify and then divide them up. Cheng Huaiqian encouraged the lovers:
"I don't think we need to go back to the military camp to continue training. It's better to kill evil spirits every day and get spirit stones."
Xia Ruize angrily took advantage of the darkness to pinch his lover's face. This guy said it nicely, but the main reason was that he didn't like that the barracks would restrict him from getting close!
Sure enough, Cheng Huaiqian took the opportunity to hug his lover's waist, and lowered his head to print Xia Ruize's exposed lips.
Relying on the darkness of the night, Xia Ruize let go of his lover. He pushed Cheng Huaiqian away until he was out of breath, turned and walked in the direction of Ping'an City, and said in a bad breath:
"Let's go, others are still waiting. I think the training opportunity in the military camp is very rare. If you can take care of it, try to take care of it as much as possible."
After the two of them cut through the night and walked into the range illuminated by the torches of the three of the old white head, the old white head immediately took the initiative to greet them.
"You two have worked hard! Thank you both for helping out."
Old Baitou took the initiative to hand over two exorcism charms as he spoke, and the team reward distribution was distributed, but the favors that should be accepted still have to be accepted. If it wasn't for the reminder and protection of Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian, they might have been trapped in the middle-level evil spirits tonight and couldn't escape.
Of course, the reason is because Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian are strong enough to make the old white head decide to go deeper.
Cheng Huaiqian unceremoniously accepted two exorcism charms, and the other side also sent two more.
"Where is this for sale?"
Cheng Huaiqian continued to ask.
This sentence alone is enough. The first thing every spirit hunting warrior looks for in the local area is the place that sells supplies. The two mysterious bosses didn't even find this. They must be very unfamiliar with Ping An City.
So on the next journey back to the city, the old white head chattered a lot about the situation of Ping An City.
Ping'an City is close to the Sea of Evil, and there are evil spirits active all year round outside the city at night, but the number of evil spirits is rare and most of them are low-level evil spirits. Only around the full moon of each month, the number of evil spirits will be slightly more.
Many spirit-hunting warriors in Ping'an City take advantage of this time to hunt evil spirits to obtain spirit stones.
The fullest month of August and fifteenth of each year is the time when the evil spirits outside the city are most active, and when the full moon robbery occurs every three years, the number and activity of evil spirits will reach their peak, and they will even invade. Safe City.
According to historical records, a long time ago, the full moon robbery was a nightmare for the city of Ping An. Until then, the spirit-hunting warriors continued to grow and develop. Human beings are no longer always on the weak and hurt side in the face of evil spirits, and even the spirit-hunting warriors began to greedily chase evil spirits. Frequent areas.
After that, the full moon calamity in Ping'an City every three years has become a challenge that attracts countless spirit hunting warriors to come to share a piece of the pie, both dangers and opportunities.
"I have been a spirit-hunting warrior for more than ten years, and I have experienced five full moon tribulations before and after. The ten to five days before the arrival of each full moon robbery is the peak period of my activities. At this time, I go out of the city at night, not only The most spiritual stones can be harvested, and the danger is also bearable.
But the situation I encountered today is the only thing I have ever seen in my life, and the evil spirits will design to frame us? Unheard of! I will report the relevant situation to the City Lord's Mansion tomorrow, this year's full moon robbery seems to be more terrifying than ever..."
Old Baitou was puzzled. He was so cautious and fell into the trap of evil spirits. When did the evil spirits become so smart?
"I think the big man above may have known it long ago. I heard that hundreds of temporary guard team members have been recruited this year."
The always silent big head suddenly interjected.
Old Baitou was stunned for a moment, then sighed:
"Who said it wasn't. Before the last full moon robbery, the temporary protection team number 50 was recruited. That full moon robbery was really dangerous. There were only half of the original defense team of more than 500 people. There are only less than thirty people left in the temporary team.
This time I heard that more than 200 temporary team members were recruited, alas... I should have thought of it. "
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian were speechless. Aren't they the unlucky temporary team members.
After getting a lot of information from Lao Baitou and Datou, knowing that even if they left the city during the day, Cheng Huaiqian had no choice but to follow Xia Ruize to continue training in the military camp.
After climbing over the city wall and returning to the city, Old Baitou led the way and brought the five back to the Homecoming Tavern.
This time, Xiao Nan was placed in the seat to allow him to have two drinks to suppress his shock. Old Baitou personally led Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize to a secret door in the tavern. After knocking on the secret door according to a specific rhythm, the door was opened.
The three walked through a long passage and entered a wide cellar. The cellar was brightly lit by candles, and there were various weapons and armors hanging around it. At first glance, it was a small hidden shop.
"Old Zhangtou, let me introduce two friends. It's believable. Don't cheat others."
Old Baitou went straight to one of the counters, and said hello to the person who was dozing lazily on the counter.
"I don't have a problem with someone you think you can trust, you two, what do you want?"
The teller glanced at Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize, and didn't mind that the two of them were still covered with hoods and couldn't see their faces, and asked lazily.
"I bought my weapons and talismans from Lao Zhangtou. He has all kinds of weapons and armors with carved patterns. The more patterns engraved on the weapons and armors, the more effective they can play the spirit-expelling talisman at critical moments. .
In addition, there are all kinds of things specially designed to deal with evil spirits. The most important thing is the exorcism charm. The exorcism charm can be attached to the weapon to increase the power of the weapon, and it can be attached to the armor to prevent the evil spirit from approaching. It is definitely not too much. Good things, other small objects and lighting lamps and so on..."
Lao Baitou also knew Lao Zhangtou's attitude, so he simply took the initiative to undertake the interpretation work.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian listened patiently and asked a few questions from time to time.
Old Zhang Tou saw that the two of them didn't seem to understand the market situation very well, so he could not help laying back lazily, listening with one ear but not the other.
Here, the old white head is introducing. There, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian kept discussing. Finally, the two kept three of the thirty-six low-level spirit stones and twenty-two medium-level spirit stones they got tonight, and replaced the rest with I bought 6 Illuminating Lamps worth 3 Spirit Stones and 60 Exorcism Talismans.
One middle-level spirit stone can be exchanged for three low-level spirit stones. Lao Zhangtou took over thirty low-level spirit stones and sixteen middle-level spirit stones with a face full of surprise. He had no idea what these two looked like. The country bumpkin who doesn't know it is actually a big customer, so generous?
Old Baitou was not surprised, just by looking at the skills of these two bosses, he knew that he would not be the master of the lacking spirit stone.
After making a big deal, Lao Zhangtou decided to give away two more fine-quality cloaks. Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian are wearing clothes that look like street stalls. It's really funny that spirit hunters wear cloaks of this quality.
After leaving the underground store, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian exchanged a low-level spirit stone from Lao Baitou for 100 coins of this world, a shell-shaped currency with high purchasing power. good-looking.
If Old Baitou and Datou made an appointment with the two, they will continue to form a team tomorrow, and then go home separately.
This night, Lao Baitou and Xiaonan got 14 low-level spirit stones together, which is almost equal to half a year's income.
In addition to the excitement, the old white head also had some worries in his heart. He even began to think about whether to leave Ping'an City before the full moon calamity this year.
After Datou's reminder, Old Baitou suddenly realized that there were too many temporary city guards recruited by Ping An City this year, and he felt a little uneasy. It seemed that the upper management had already known some bad news in advance, but it was not made public.
On the other hand, when Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian passed by the stall selling cloaks before, they threw 3 shells on it, 1 shell for each cloak, and the extra one was counted as compensation. The stall owner got 3 shells inexplicably, and quickly put them away in his bag, no matter what.
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian returned to the barracks. Because the sergeants who were guarding the city wall at night would change their shifts, there was always a small door on the side of the barracks. Phantom cover.
Compared with the Datong shop in the barracks, it is more comfortable to sleep in my own tent.
It was nearly twelve o'clock at this time, and they could sleep for four hours before getting up early the next day and training them. Cheng Huaiqian hugged his lover into his arms, and the two fell asleep almost on the pillow until the early morning trumpet sounded.
In the darkness and chaos, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian returned to the team in time, and no one noticed that their whereabouts seemed a little unusual.
The drowsy bearded man even teased Xia Ruize: "You're still a little baby who can't be weaned, so you still need your brother to sleep with you."
Although Xia Ruize's teammates didn't think it was too crowded to sleep at night, they still couldn't see that Cheng Huaijian had to tell his "younger brother" a short bedtime story before going to bed. Wouldn't it be so naive?
Xia Ruize turned his head expressionlessly, his lover must make him weave such a fantasy, he would be embarrassed if he could do anything!
The daily training still started with running around the city in armor. The day before, there were still soldiers who were not too concerned about training. Today is different. In order to obtain the spiritual stone, everyone is full of fighting spirit, but running Not long after the start, many soldiers cursed their mothers in their hearts.
Because today's running speed was even faster than the previous day, the soldiers who had originally calculated that they should be able to survive five laps as long as they persisted seriously, fell to the ground from the third lap one after another.
In the end, the number of people who successfully completed the running training mission and returned to the military camp was not as large as the previous day.
The training difficulty of the Spirit Shooting Crossbow in the morning also suddenly increased, from the need to shoot three humanoid cards in a row directly to the requirement of shooting five humanoid cards in a row.
The morning before, many people were able to complete the assessment by reluctantly shooting the third humanoid card by luck, but no matter how lucky they were, they couldn't shoot five humanoid cards in a row.
As a result, fewer soldiers had eaten lunch than the day before, and more soldiers could only work overtime and practice on an empty stomach, but they felt bitter in their hearts. It’s not a problem to be so hungry every day.
In the afternoon training, in addition to physical training, battle training was also added. The soldiers finally realized clearly that the official was trying to trick them, and many of them didn't even perform well the day before. Where can they get the spirit stone?
Sure enough, when they assembled in the evening, there were only a mere 30 soldiers who got the spirit stones. On the contrary, 12 members of the temporary protection team who had not eaten three meals for two consecutive days were eliminated.
