It's still the same coffin at the beginning, it's still yin and yang soil, but compared to the shabby last time, this time it's a world of difference.

After parking this body and putting on another shell that had been practiced for half a year, he officially said goodbye to Brother Renyi and Da Bing, and then left the realm of the sect city with a caravan that was doing business with Yunxiao in the area outside the ground city.

If his calculations were correct, he would have about six and a half days left.

Taking advantage of this time, he was going to go to the ruins of Pingyang City.

Binh Duong City, once the economic flagpole city of Yunzhou, has the country's leading heavy industry base and is located in the transportation artery.

The original Tianjing City, the first city-state of Yunzhou, was the successor of Pingyang City, which collapsed due to the destruction of the magic energy power generation group, and was divided by Haotian, Yunxiao, and Liuyun.

For example, in the cloud area of the capital today, there are still people living, about 3,000, which is called the black street.

Black Street is currently the largest extralegal place in Yunzhou.

The rest of Haotian and Liuyun were all ruled by the Jiaocheng, and even Feilong and Jianning, together with their surrounding areas, were incorporated into Yunzhou, and the total area of Yunzhou was close to 37,000 square kilometers, which was almost the size of Taiwan Province.

It has now been more than three months since reunification, and the integration of all aspects is still proceeding in an orderly manner, including the fields of medicine and biology.

With this integration, a technology that was not expected has become tempting.

Clones.

Out of the dream of longevity, the human beings of this world have made technological achievements in the fields of bioengineering, genetics, etc., which are far higher than those of the origin world.

The data that analyzes the function of genes alone is of inestimable value.

From Xu Changqing's very shallow point of view, if these data are taken back to the earth and handed over to people in the professional field, it will not take about a few years for a completely practical genetic weapon to be born.

But if he wants to do something good, such as cloning a shell or shells for himself, it will be difficult.

He went to Pingyang City this time, just to go to the relevant equipment. Technology alone is not enough, but also equipment to implement technology. The Heavy Industry Park in Binh Duong City is said to be able to produce this kind of equipment, so naturally he can't bring it back, but he hopes to bring the blueprints back.

For this operation, he is also fully prepared.

Like the body used now, it is more fierce than the guard knife, the material comes from the Night Demon's Blue Horn King, and the attributes of wood, earth and gold are quite in tune with him, and he is ruthless, congenital and late.

Although the life is not even a year, it doesn't matter, it is a temporary house, just to feel what it is like to be close to Shouyuan.

Moreover, he deliberately stuck in time, even if he encountered an irresistible danger, as long as he used the items prepared in advance to get rid of enough time, he left.

His current appearance is a thin man with a white beard and hair, he looks like he is in his forties, his outfit is more mainstream, anti-cut clothing, anti-riot armor, overcoat, cross-knife and gun, leather bag on his back, cross-body kettle, most of the walkers in this area are dressed like this.

There are many examples of walkers traveling in tandem with caravanserans, and caravans are generally not driven unless they follow too much.

In this world, business is hard and dangerous work. Walkers are even more explorers, encountering all kinds of dangers, which have become a part of life.

They are all common partings of life and death, with that characteristic coldness and indifference, as well as simplicity, or indulgence. It often comes across as a bunch of boorish, unsympathetic bastards.

Getting along with such a person, the humble gentleman can't eat it, after Xu Changqing taught the two guys who were not inferior, the simple run-in ended, and he gained the respect and peace he deserved.

The convoy headed west, and Black Street was just one stop on their way.

On the return journey, the caravan carried mainly goods to dispel poison. Nowadays, the poison medicine in the city is very famous, and it can be sold at a good price when it is shipped back.

Affected by the magic crystal, the temperature of this world is about the same as the Xiaoice River period at the end of the Ming Dynasty of the Celestial Empire. This is similar to the north, with low overall temperatures throughout the year, low and concentrated rainfall, and long, dry winters.

It's late autumn, and the wilderness at night is only a few degrees Celsius, plus the gloom and night wind, which is cold and refreshing.

The convoy rests in a paddock.

The paddock is spontaneously and slowly taken care of by passers-by. It is a relay station between the city-states, characterized by a good wall, and there will be no ready-made houses inside, but it is relatively empty, but most of them have pillars.

Those pillars were used for pitching tents, which saved a lot of trouble.

There is no ready-made house, it is for safety, and the abandoned house is likely to become a shelter for evil spirits.

The main function of the wall is to prevent monsters, that is, all kinds of aberrant creatures, including people.

Demons can't be prevented, but demons are not common.

As a result, this time I was unlucky, and a monster appeared.

Or rather, luck is not ordinarily good, Xu Changqing is here.

It was already the second half of the night, the moon was bright and the stars were thin, and Xu Changqing, who was sitting on a floor slab in the ruins, suddenly opened his eyes,

Leaping to the ground like a leaf, he held the tip of the scabbard with his left hand and his thumb resting on the strain, and he headed west.

Bang! The wall of rocks and concrete exploded as if it had been stuffed with explosives, and stones the size of a basin could be splashed in all directions.

Actually, it was a hit.

In the smoke and dust, a deformed monster rushed out, exposed to the moonlight.

This monster looks like a minotaur in a magical world, with thick hooves and legs, knotted upper limb muscles, and a burly and unusually strong body.

However, this thing does not have the regularity of a normal creature, the body shape is not symmetrical, and there are also such and such details problems, such as the back of the tumor, the big and small eyes, the left paw is a double finger, and so on.

This is the typical aberration, and its characteristics, most of which are unique, do not form a stable inheritance.

However, Xu Changqing doesn't look at these, he is not a biologist, and when he encounters a creature that may be an enemy, the first thing is to measure its soul texture.

The one in front of me is very unique, at first glance the soul is at the level of the Yin Spirit, but the strength is very high, and the ordinary Yin Ghost may not be comparable.

"It's ...... A strong spirit state formed by plundering and devouring a lot? ”

There are very few strong spirits, because reopening the mind is the instinct of the Yin Soul family.

At first, it was the devouring of similar creatures and the instinct to seek good fortune and avoid evil, and then captured a trace of yang power, and began to embark on the road of enlightenment.

When he reaches the late state of Yin Spirit, his mind is like the state of a person when he is choking in sleep, his mind is confused, but he is clear, and he desperately wants to wake up completely.

And once you really 'wake up', you are a ghost, and the sign is that your self-consciousness is relatively stable.

Strong spirits go against this mainstream model, preferring to fall into a chaotic nightmare state, not seeking to break through upwards, but only willing to accumulate horizontally.

"There must be a reason." Xu Changqing thought so.

The aberrant shook its head as it broke through the wall, then lowered its head and slammed into it like an angry bull.

Seeing that he was about to be hit, Xu Changqing took a big step to the side, dodging the collision by a fraction of a millimeter, and at the same time there was a stone pile **** in his hand.

The stone pile cone thorn, with the magic weapon of the ability of the needle, when the sand is condensed into stone, it is etched with the text, divided into the soul, the spirit, and the ghost.

This is the technique that he obtained in the Dharmaless World in combination with the Second Daoless World, the techniques related to the Advent Project, the Technique of Tianyan, the Technique of Serving Ghosts, and the Technique of Talismans, and there are even some results of the study of the "Dao Pattern Record" given by Kukai.

This method has some characteristics of the Void Drawing, but because of the medium, it is not as expensive as the Void Drawing.

The distance is very close, there is no way to avoid it, and the cone pile is so long that it is 'sneering! With a thud, the self-deformed left ear went straight in.

The deformant let out a cry of pain and plunged headlong into the rubble in front of him.

At the same time, the caravan and other travelers were also alarmed, and gathered a crowd to surround this side.

They didn't see the aberrations too clearly, but they noticed the influx of beasts from the gap.

Doodle! Someone whistled.

According to the whistle, the caravan had a judgment, and they got out of the tent one after another and entered the temporary pack animal circle.

The pack beast circle is surrounded by vehicles against a broken back wall, and has the characteristics of a barrier, and the caravan people take advantage of the location at the same time, but also have to fill the gaps to protect the pack beasts.

Bang! Bang bang!

The scattered gunfire is the walkers, who are not as organized as caravan escorts, but their individual strength is often better and they are the first to attack.

The caravan escort was also soon joined, they were shooting on one knee, as well as standing sideways, in two rows in front and behind, in small positions, with dense firepower.

The scene was very much like the army of the First World War, and the characteristics of the weapons were similar, single shots, and the bolt of the gun needed to be pulled after each shot.

But if you pay attention to the details, you will find that there is no large amount of smoke when firing, which proves that the gunpowder burned well.

Several beasts sprang in under musket fire and tumbled to the ground, splashing dust flakes of dust.

Xu Changqing was relatively close to the gap, and an evil beast like a wild boar rushed forward, and he dodged and cut off half of the pig's head with a knife, but even if the black and red blood was pressed and sprayed directly by the heart pump, the evil beast still tried to launch a second collision.

Before it could collide, two black shadows swooped down, one low, with a faint hint of coordination.

However, as soon as the clear sword light rolled, the black shadow fell to the ground and turned into four sections, a large monkey and a snake the thickness of an adult's arm.

Evil beasts cannot be measured by the logic of animal behavior, and snakes do not hibernate even in the cold winter, and are far more powerful and crazy than ordinary animals.

They attack humans out of a thirst for the soul, and they are like forgetful and crazy food lovers who, when they are allowed to smell and see, whet their appetite and become desperate.

"Huh?"

In Xu Changqing's surprised gaze, the deformed body that had been stabbed by him with the Zhenling Pile actually stood up again.

"Whew!" He howled in the sky, and his body glowed with a poisonous green light, like a flame.

"Evil, demon!" The caravan's escorts and walkers were shocked.

The demon howled and immediately rushed towards the crowded guards, perhaps because of the confusion of his mind, the evil creature did not hold grudges, but was eager to slaughter and plunder.

Bang bang bang! Someone fired, but with little success.

Cha! Xu Changqing was half a beat slower, but he successfully slashed his leg, which had the best effect and affected the power of the demon.

Leaping high and falling heavily, the demon smashed down from the sky like a huge toad.

Rumble! LIKE A 120MM CALIBER SHELL BOMBARDMENT, MUD AND ROCKS SPLASHED, SMOKE AND DUST WERE SCATTERED, AND AN AREA WITH A RADIUS OF FIVE METERS WAS DIRECTLY SMASHED OUT OF A LARGE CRATER.

Unfortunately, they failed to step into the array of the guards, but only affected a few guards, and the strength was too strong, and the people were blown around, and the few who were closer were simply overturned to the ground, their internal organs were shaken, and blood was bleeding from their mouths and noses.

The demon missed the blow, and immediately struck again, clenching his fists and pounding the ground with both hands with a low roar.

Rumble! The ground rippled and fanned out, and the caravan guards rolled to the ground, embarrassed, and only two shots hit the demon.

At this time, Xu Changqing's pursuit arrived.

The evil demon was like an eye in the back of his head, and he suddenly turned around with a punch, and a ball of green fire came out of the fist, rushing at Xu Changqing.

However, the dust that had been raised by the energy of the demon smashed before was now densely formed into a shield, and it was burned by the green flame, and it suddenly became a crystallization with a glass texture.

The crystals shattered, and Xu Changqing's knife shone out from this shattering, and it was four consecutive slashes in one go, which was an improvement from the three consecutive slashes a year ago.

Cutting the arm, breaking the neck, cutting the waist, three consecutive slashes and a sudden stab, the blade of the knife was twisted again and again, and the blood in the heart suddenly gushed out along the wound.

The corpse of the demon fell, the blood burned in the air, and by the way, its corpse was also ignited, the fire was blazing, the temperature was extremely high, and the caravan guards who fell nearby almost crawled to dodge, even so, the clothes and armor were still scorched and hardened.

Xu Changqing flew back a few meters, frowned and reminded everyone: "Hide farther away, it feels weird." ”

Sure enough, the demon did not die, and the tentacles of light reached out from the flames, like a dancing long whip, entangled the people nearby.

Xu Changqing waved his knife again and again, and several rays of light slashed out, cutting off the tentacles.

The guards were rolling and crawling away, and some people opened fire or threw grenades, but with little success.

At this time, the fire was even bigger, and it revealed greenery, and more tentacles popped out, like random arrows, rolling towards Xu Changqing.

Xu Changqing danced and played the knife and the wild wind, and the knife light was practiced, like a winch, cutting off all the tentacles.

Wood makes fire, fire makes earth, fire overcomes gold, and water makes fire. The five elements are shengke, he occupies the wood, earth and gold, and he is the most helpless to the fire. The main reason is that this fire is unusual, the energy level is very high, and this place is dry and waterless, and the water vapor mobilized by the talisman alone cannot extinguish this fire.

This fire not only kept people from approaching, but also tempted the evil beast to get closer, Xu Changqing killed with all his might, but there were too many tentacles stretched out from the fire, and several evil beasts were still caught in the fire.

Soon after, the flames died out, and a humanoid monster appeared, with four arms, a snake body, and a human head, with a noseless face like Voldemort's, but with a vertical eye on its forehead and an orange glow from the inside.

"Demons!" People are growing fearful.

It's scarier than the ghosts that come out of the Styx Lake.

Xu Changqing also looked solemn. According to the Xu family's ancestral ghost science division, this kind of thing in front of you is called a ghoul. As the name suggests, a ghost sacrifices a corpse that is highly compatible with himself, which is the refining of the corpse, from which the refining ghoul comes.

But the path of transformation of the ghoul in front of him was obviously very different from the process of the ghoul refiner generation that he knew.

Until now, he had not been able to understand what had contributed to the change.

Thinking in his heart, but the spell was not slow, he directly took out the thunderbolt sticks prepared in advance, sealed the spells, and then pointed at the evil demons.

Click! A blazing white golden thunderbolt slashed down in the air, and the newly born demon was slashed to the ground, and the upper half of his body was scorched black.

Xu Changqing saw that he was not dead, and he made two Gengjin thunders in a row, among the five element thunders, Gengjin thunder had the most killing power, which was the thunder of destruction.

Bang! The evil demon exploded, turned into a sky-high fire, in the flames, a faint humanoid spirit body soared, turned into a mist of light and dissipated, and the bondage was freed, this is the spirit devoured by this evil thing, they returned to the light like a downward form, and completely dissipated in the heaven and earth.

It burned violently for five minutes before the fire was extinguished, and a stone the size of a thumb's belly floated in the sulfurized scorched pit. It has a color like imperial green jadeite, but it is self-luminous, and in the moonlight, it reveals a strange beauty.
