Pushing martial arts horizontally: starting from depriving the mantis shrimp of its talent

Chapter 95 Human life is like a mustard

"Sir, Inspector, five more people disappeared this morning. No bodies were found. They may have been found."

Half a month later, a piece of news from Xiaoqinglong Mountain was quickly delivered to Wangjiang City.

After Xu Anmin got the news, he immediately came to a courtyard of the prefect's mansion and couldn't wait to report.

The door opened, and Ying Xuanji walked out with the demon-slaying sword behind him, Feng Lei said sternly

"Take me there right now!"

After gathering their troops, the group left the east gate and headed straight for Xiao Qinglong Mountain.

In Xiao Qinglong Mountain, a few miles away from the large crater discovered, a group of people rolled up smoke and dust in the sky and turned into a yellow dragon and rushed straight towards them.

In the forest, a group of ragged prisoners with the word "prison" painted on their chests were constantly searching, followed by soldiers carrying weapons, as if a big net was gradually covering the entire Xiao Qinglong Mountain.

From the height of a mountain peak, he looked at the crowds of criminals searching the mountain below. Ying Xuanji put his hands behind his back. Behind him were Xu Anmin and several powerful captains. Those who could follow them were all high-ranking officials in Wangjiang official circles.

"Have you figured it out?"

Ying Xuanji looked at the criminals searching the mountain below and asked without looking back.

Xu Anmin nodded and said
"After these days of continuous searching, the method of entry has been roughly confirmed."

"Only when the fog in the mountains has just risen and is about to dissipate, if you enter the thick fog, you have a chance of being pulled in."

"We conducted a special experiment in the morning. The official sent 200 people into the fog. When the fog dissipated, five people disappeared. No corpses or signs of attacks were found around them. They just disappeared out of thin air."

After hearing Xu Anmin's report, Ying Xuanji was expressionless, as if the lives of ordinary people were worth less than dirt in front of him.

"Too few! To let more people in, be sure to master the rules of attracting people in the ghost realm."

Xu Anmin looked troubled when he heard this.

"Recently, the official has increased the punishment for crimes in Wangjiang. People who have committed a little crime have been brought here. However, the probability of death of prisoners in the mountains is too high. No more people can be found."

Ying Xuanji turned around and looked over with a cold expression, and Xu Anmin shut up immediately.

"Aren't there many more people?"

Xu Anmin and several captains looked in the direction pointed by Ying Xuanji, and saw a series of flags standing at the foot of the mountain, surrounding the entire mountain to prevent criminals from escaping.

The expressions of several captains suddenly changed.

There are four captains in Wangjiang City, each captain is in charge of a thousand soldiers.

This time, according to Ying Xuanji's request, they surrounded the mountain and searched the mountain. The four guards came out of Xiaoqinglong Mountain and brought all the soldiers and horses.

Excluding those who were free of charge, there were nearly two thousand soldiers and horses at the foot of Xiaoqinglong Mountain.

These days, thanks to Xu Anmin's efforts, a total of [-] criminals have been brought in. However, due to various accidents and being dragged into the ghost realm, the number has dropped sharply, to less than [-].

According to Ying Xuanji's request, if more people are allowed to enter the thick fog, everyone will die soon.

"Sir Inspector, those are soldiers of my dynasty, please have mercy!"

A red-faced captain, nearly two meters tall, stood up, half-kneeling on the ground with his hands clasped in fists, and begged.

Ying Xuanji's face turned cold, and he suddenly grabbed a hand behind his back. The air was immediately gathered and compressed into an air bomb in his palm.

A palm shot out from the air, the air bomb exploded, and the powerful force turned the red-faced and majestic captain into a bloody mist.

Several other people's strong faces turned pale, and they shivered all over.

Xu Anmin's performance was even worse. He screamed and sat back on the ground.

"Whatever I say is what I say, you just have to do it!"

"Yes~"

Several captains were frightened and nodded in agreement.

Every evening and morning, when the thick fog in the mountains rises and dissipates, a large number of soldiers and prisoners will enter the thick fog.

Every time we enter the thick fog, many people disappear out of thin air after coming out.

At first there were only a few scattered ones, but later there were more than a dozen or dozens.

What's more, after entering once, less than half came out.

The prisoners and soldiers couldn't bear it anymore. Some of them immediately had a nervous breakdown and were about to run down Xiaoqinglong Mountain, crying. However, Ying Xuanji fell from the sky and struck out with a palm, instantly beating a small group of deserters into pulp.

"Go back! Otherwise it will be your wives, children and children who come next time!"

Under the cold threat, the prisoners and soldiers' eyes turned red and their fists clenched, but this did not affect Ying Xuanji at all.

The soldiers and prisoners had no choice but to retrace their steps and continue walking into the thick fog.

Some soldiers and prisoners who didn't care wanted to take advantage of the thick fog to leave from the other side of the mountain, but after entering the thick fog, they never came out.

When the thick fog dissipated, less than 200 of the 50 people who entered were left.

"Still hasn't come out yet?"

A trace of disappointment flashed in Ying Xuanji's eyes, and just as he was waving his hand to get ready for the next group of people, a staggering figure staggered out of the forest, holding on to the tree.

As he walked, loess shook off his body from time to time, and he fell to the ground as soon as he walked out of the forest.

"Quick! Bring him up!"

Ying Xuanji's eyes lit up when he saw this scene, and he immediately asked someone to come forward and bring over the person who fell on the ground.After being moved here, Ying Xuanji saw that his whole body was covered in black ash and the loess was constantly shaking down from his trouser legs, and he immediately had his clothes and trousers ripped open.

After tearing it apart, it was seen that the area below the knee of this person's thigh was completely covered with loess, and other parts above the knee were covered with black ash. Moreover, as time went by, the loess was rapidly receding and the flesh and blood was recovering.

Feeling the white jade around his waist gradually turn black, a smile appeared on Ying Xuanji's face.

"Wake him up. No matter what method you use, you must find out what he did inside and how he came out!"

A basin of cold water is poured down, and the unconscious person suddenly wakes up.

After Xu Anmin coerced and promised countless gold and silver treasures, the man looked at the dissipated loess on his feet, looked ecstatic, and immediately told his experience.

But just after he finished speaking, the moment the loess disappeared, a strong sense of coldness arose. Almost instantly, the expression on the face of the prisoner who had been so angry just now froze at the last moment.

A large amount of loess seemed to be generated out of thin air, continuously spurting out from the black and gray parts of the prisoner's body. A few seconds later, a grave mound appeared on the spot.

Several people around him were immediately startled, and they all backed away from the grave.

Xu Anmin handed the record to Ying Xuanji, and Ying Xuanji couldn't wait to take it and scan it.

I read the contents on the paper several times and recorded every content in my heart. Then I put down the paper, looked at the incompatible grave bag, frowned, and said

"Let someone dig up the grave!"

A few timid soldiers were called up and quickly dug up the grave.

I saw the prisoner who was originally covered in black ash, now lying with his hands and feet intact, and the black ash on his body had disappeared without knowing when.

"Throw it away, bad luck!"

Ying Xuanji saw this scene in his eyes, waved his hand, and asked the soldiers who were digging the grave to carry the body away and throw it down a cliff at random.

Ying Xuanji turned around and looked at the forest where this person came out just now, handed the record to Xu Anmin, put his hands behind his back and said

"Assign a group of people to try it for me according to this person's method."

Xu Anmin nodded and went down to make arrangements.

Because of training, only 50 people entered this time.

But after the thick fog dissipated, all 50 people disappeared. After a while, only three black ghosts escaped crying.

Without exception, these people are cursed by loess.

After recording the conditions of several people, three new graves soon appeared on the ground.

"Tell the remaining people that as long as they come out of the ghost realm safe and sound, they will have gold, silver, wealth, status and beauty, everything they want!"

Through waves of exploration, the first man's findings were constantly revised and improved.

But in the end, the remaining 300 people refused to go in no matter how hard they tried, even if they beat a group of people into a pulp.

Looking at the dozens of new graves in front of the woods, Ying Xuanji frowned.

"These ordinary people are still too weak. They can't last long in the ghost realm. They don't even see the weird, let alone contain and control the weird."

From the experience of these dozens of new graves, Ying Xuanji learned that after entering the heavy fog, a loess path will appear. Following the loess path, you will reach a cemetery.

However, this group of people didn't encounter anything strange at all after entering the cemetery. They followed the first person's method and found the remaining black powder in front of the tombstones of some graves. When they applied it to the area covered with loess, a stripe of black powder appeared in front of them. It's the same loess path as when you came here. Once you walk up it, you can come out.

However, black powder is not available in every grave bag, and the amount of powder is limited. If you want to apply it to areas not covered by loess, you need to find multiple grave bags.

The cemetery is very large, and the graves with black ash are distributed irregularly. After many people entered the cemetery, most of them died while searching for the black ash.

"If your body is covered with black ash, you don't have to walk on the loess path immediately and stay in the ghost land for a while. At this time, you can use it to find weird things and take advantage of them."

"Mortals are too slow."

Ying Xuanji's eyes flashed coldly, and finally his eyes were firm.

"It seems that it requires a warrior."
-
"What?! Xu Anmin wants one second-blood and five first-blood from each martial arts hall?"

"Is this the case with the aristocratic family as well?"

At the gravel boxing gym, Chen Chengtie Zhigang and others were called over again.

When Old Man Ma conveyed Xu Anmin's request, his face suddenly turned ugly.

"Hmph! What does Xu Anmin want to do? He arrested so many people indiscriminately before, and they still don't know whether they are alive or dead. Now he actually wants to target us."

"Damn it, does Xu Anmin not want the thing on his neck anymore?"

Among the disciples trained in the martial arts hall, the most talented ones are only one in a hundred, let alone the first and second blood.

These people are the mainstay of a martial arts gym, and each martial arts gym does not have too many of them.

Like Gravel Fist, there were only thirteen inner sects before Chen Cheng joined, only four at second level and nine at first level.

The strength of Gravel Fist is on the lower side in Wangjiang. The strength of other martial arts schools is stronger, but not too much.

Xu Anmin wanted one second-blood warrior and five first-blood warriors all at once, which meant that he was going to have three-quarters of the strength of the martial arts gym, and he didn't even say what he was going to do.

However, judging from the fact that so many people were arrested indiscriminately before without any news, I am afraid that the chances are worse than the worst.

This time there is one second-blood and five first-blood. Will they ask for third blood next time, or even the owner of the hall and the head of the aristocratic family personally do it?

Once he offended both the martial arts school and the family, even Xu Anmin, as a prefect, had to think about whether his head could withstand the fists of dozens of gym owners.
