Lord of the Tricks

Chapter 24

Yu Ziqing walked through the path outside the village, stood in the heavy snow, raised his head slightly, and watched the precious fireworks blooming in the sky. At this time, he really wanted to smoke a cigarette, it was purely because of the atmosphere.

Lao Yang has said more than once that a monk is a high-risk profession, and the death rate is much higher than that of ordinary people. Now he has seen it with his own eyes.

Able to use the escape method, the monks who come and go in today's wasteland are at least the third-level Qi-refining monks, and the second-level ones can fly with the help of some special magical weapons, but the consumption is too high, and they will not fly when it is not necessary. It is easy to use, and it will not consume a lot of power to fly around when fighting.

The monks who take other paths are not much different.

Oh, in addition to physical training, the specific point is the physical training of pure body training.

Physical cultivation who also cultivates qi is similar to a monk who refines qi, but physical cultivation that is purely physical cultivation must be at least at the fourth level before he can fly with the help of some magic weapons, and his speed is not as fast as running on the ground. When it is comparable to the escape method, it is only possible when it is at the sixth level...

The reason why the road of body training is not popular is that it is more or less in full bloom.

Yu Ziqing didn't have much obsession with flying. He always felt that the strong flew because they had the confidence, and the weak chickens jumped in the sky, which somewhat meant moving the target, which made people feel very insecure.

After watching outside for a while, when the fireworks show in the sky ended, Yu Ziqing silently estimated that there might be at most 48 Qi-refining monks at least at the third level who died in this confrontation.

Coupled with the heavy snow, the fireworks can still be seen shining, and considering that his eyesight has improved a lot after he started training his body, the place where those people fought should be within two hundred miles of the mine.

It's very close.

Instead of continuing to choose to be a weak chicken, he chose to train his body. Looking at it now, it is somewhat wise.

You can't bet that when those people fight, it won't spread to the village, and you can't bet that no one will fish in troubled waters and target the village in an increasingly chaotic situation.

Turning around and walking through the abyss of despair, it happened to be the beginning of a new cycle. When Yu Ziqing passed the bait woman and those cannibals, he felt an inexplicable sense of irritability.

With the movement of his heart, he punched out, and the qi and blood in his body began to surge automatically. The strong yang qi, mixed with the restlessness that emerged in Yu Ziqing's heart, punched through one of the cannibals.

In the past, they were all illusory phantoms, they couldn't be touched at all, they could only be watched.

But today, Yu Ziqing clearly felt that when he punched out, he did touch something.

The cannibal who was hit by him began to distort, as if it hadn't been loaded, froze there and kept flickering, and the entire operation of the Abyss of Despair stopped at this moment.

All the phantoms were frozen in place, motionless.

Yu Ziqing was slightly taken aback, and tried to punch the other cannibal again, but this time he didn't feel anything. His body passed through the phantom without any effect on the phantom.

Yu Ziqing looked down at his hands, and recalled the feeling of the casual punch just now, and tried a few more times, but there was still no response, and he couldn't feel the punch anymore.

Looking back at Sister on the hillside, she stood in place, but she was not stuck like those phantoms. She bowed to Yu Ziqing, trying to say something, but couldn't say it.

"You're welcome, to be honest, I don't know how I did it."

Yu Ziqing was in a good mood and waved his hand away.

"Since there is a first time that can affect the operation of this place, there must be a next time, with a bigger and stronger influence. Maybe when I become stronger, I can punch through this place and save you. .”

After saying a few words, those stuck phantoms continued to move, and everything returned to its original state, and Xiexi was dragged in again.

Yu Ziqing walked out of the abyss of despair, but his mood improved inexplicably.

Even if he knew in his heart that it could affect the abyss of despair, it shouldn't have much to do with his body training, Yu Ziqing also comforted himself.

When other monks are at the second level, they will definitely not be able to do this.

……

Three days later, a hundred miles to the east of the village, Dali's Raging Flame Warrior stopped to rest in a leeward place.

The leading strong man gulped down the flaming liquor and glanced west.

"If I remember correctly, it doesn't seem far from Jinlan Mine, right?"

A young soldier at the side took out a scroll from his sleeve and waved his hand lightly. The scroll spread out and floated in mid-air. On the map above, there was a flashing dot of light, which was their current location.

"My lord, one hundred miles to the west and south is the Jinlan Mine. Do we need to drop by?"

The strong man cast a sideways glance at his followers.

"You guys from the Shadow Division, have you found out what Dagan needs Jinlan ore for now?"

The young soldier's identity was exposed, his face remained unchanged, and he said calmly.

"No, we secretly obtained some newly made magical instruments, talismans, array discs, array flags, and even some pills.

However, the people from Lihuo Academy only found a small amount of Jinlan ore in some low-level instruments, and did not find any Jinlan ore in higher-level objects.

They have already come to the conclusion that although Jinlan ore is rare, its characteristics can only be used as a third-level metal material, and only some magic weapons such as flying swords can be blessed in a small amount. "

Shadow Division, just by the name, it is an organization set up by Dali to compete with Daqian Jinyiwei, and Lihuoyuan is also the Langyayuan to compete with Dagan.

This spy from the Shadow Department was placed next to the strong man, everyone knows it well, and now when he asks the question, the spy is just throwing the blame at the Lihuo Academy. They are members of the Shadow Department, and they don't have the responsibility to study things .

The brawny man could understand, he curled his lips in disdain.

Everyone knows that Lihuoyuan is not as good as Dagan's Langyayuan, and everyone admits it, but most of the time, the Shadow Division is on the same level as Dagan's Jinyiwei.

What he asked was whether the Shadow Division had found anything in a big way.

There are more than one place like Jinlan Mine, it's just that the geographical location is special.

If you find any material or anything, you have to take it back for research and research. If you don’t find it useful for a while, or if there is a better, cheaper, and large-volume substitute, then keep it as a spare, maybe there will be one in the future. What a new discovery.

But Dali didn't have such financial resources. Being caught in the middle of a big earthquake and a big cadre was already quite uncomfortable. Under the influence of various internal and external factors over the years, the treasury was becoming increasingly empty, and it had long since been unable to afford to spend money randomly.

The argument of not following Dagan and being led by the nose has almost become the mainstream in Dali.

The strong man generally agrees with these arguments, but he does not agree with adding Jinlan Mine to this argument. The location of Jinlan Mine is a relatively rare semi-blessed land, part of it is connected with the wilderness, and part of it exists alone .

There are also strange powers growing in it, which is considered a wasteland that is not suitable for monks to develop. Although this kind of place cannot be used, the materials that can be produced are generally relatively rare.

Even if the price is higher now, the output is scarce, and it can only be used on some low-level instruments, but who knows if there will be new discoveries in the future.

Just give up like that, the person who made this kind of decision is a real melon.

The brawny man is not confused, but he also knows that he has no right to speak about such things. If he is asked to lead troops to fight, the people above trust him, but he has no right to speak about other matters, and it will make people laugh. He can't kill anyone who makes fun of him.

Glancing at the Shadow Division spy next to him, the strong man pointed in the direction of the Jinlan Mine.

"I happened to be passing by, counting the time, maybe some big-time people will come and go around there, you go explore the road and see what you find."

It was just to scout the way, and the spies couldn't refuse, he was inserted, everyone knew, but his ostensible identity was just an ordinary entourage, the general who led the army gave orders, he disobeyed and was beaten to death It also deserves it.

The spy had no choice but to take orders, shrinking his body, and slowly turned into a phantom, submerged into the ground and disappeared.

The strong man frowned slightly, he really couldn't like these guys walking in the shadows.

"Let's keep going and see if there is a chance to accumulate some military merits for everyone."

After a while, the team walked away, and phantoms appeared in place, forming the figure of a spy. He drilled out of the ground, took out a pen, and wrote in the booklet he carried.

"General Miyazawa is particularly concerned about the Huangyuan Jinlan Mine, and as the rumors say, he has a great opinion of my Shadow Division..."

After the spy finished writing, he marked the time and place, put away the booklet, turned into a phantom again, and headed towards the Jinlan Mine.

Remember him, remember him, military orders still have to be implemented...

Walking all the way to the vicinity of the Jinlan Mine, the spy suddenly stopped far away. He revealed a pair of eyes in a shadow and looked to the southeast.

A lifeless procession is on the snow, walking on the snow, like a ghost, silently, all of them are wearing white robes, hoods covering their faces, the leader is a person, holding a white lantern , floating three inches from the ground, leading the team forward.

Suddenly, the team came to a sudden stop, and the white lantern in the leader's hand suddenly lit up with a white light, and the lantern rotated slowly, with a big "Dian" character on it pointing at the direction of the spies .

The originally lifeless team seemed to come alive at this moment, and the frenzied roar exploded in the cold wind.

"When the red sun is gone, the white sun will flourish."

The sound of howling wind and snow seemed to be suppressed, and the white light that bloomed in the white lantern quickly illuminated everything around, making the gloomy world suddenly brighter.

At the same time, the hidden shadow of the spy was also illuminated, revealing his body.

That group of ghostly figures quickly surrounded him in the wind and snow.
