Chapter 53: Ambush and Corpse Training
The rain gradually lightened when it was dark, but it might not be safe for them to continue their journey today.
The head of the Thousand Crane Road and Boss Huang discussed whether to take a day off for the time being, but Boss Huang sternly refused.
In desperation, they had no choice but to continue on their journey, but the rain that had been falling in the middle of the night had not stopped until now, and the road was muddy, and the speed of the journey was not only slow, but also very laborious.
At this time, the Kari people in the mountains are okay, they are originally vegetative, and the rain is not a bad thing for them.
The other wave of people was more tormented, although there were caves to shelter from the rain, but they had to be on guard against flash floods at all times, and they did not have a good night.
Finally, it was dawn and the rain was light, but due to the heavy rain, the road was difficult to walk, and the speed of the Chizuru Road became slower, and they might have to stay in the mountains for a few more days.
The Ninth Uncle and the Four-Eyed Daoist were hurrying in the rain at this time, both of them were very embarrassed, and their faces were relatively tired.
"Senior brother, I didn't expect you to learn to ride a horse for so many years, it seems that after being kicked for the first time riding a horse, you shouldn't have been learning." Four eyes teased.
"Do you still need to learn something as simple as horseback riding? I just don't have the time, otherwise how could I cultivate to a small realm higher than you. Uncle Nine choked on his eyes.
Speaking of which, the fact that two big men rode together made it difficult for the good-faced Uncle Nine to accept, if he wasn't worried about the safety of his junior brother and disciple, he would never have done such a shameful thing.
At noon, the sun finally appeared in the sky, but it had just rained, and now it was sunburning, and the air was full of humidity.
"The weather is finally clear, and the weather in autumn is like this, unpredictable." After Qianhe saw the sun come out, he said a word to Hu Xiaofei.
Hu Xiaofei grinned and didn't laugh.
It seems that Uncle Chizuru was also shadowed by this heavy rain.
At this time, Boss Huang also came with a smile on his face, looking at the muddy water on his legs, he was walking quite fast on the way here.
"Chizuru Michichi, now that the weather is clear, do you want to speed up?"
Hu Xiaofei has been with Boss Huang a few times in the past few days, but people have been ignoring him, and they still greeted him with a smile the next day, which made Hu Xiaofei embarrassed to give people any more faces.
Even if he is still wary of this now, he must always maintain a superficial harmony, after all, people also give money.
The chief of the Thousand Crane Road is easy to speak, since the gold lord has spoken, then hurry up.
The roads in the mountains are covered with a layer of soil on the surface, and the bottom is full of stones, so the water seeps very quickly, otherwise you can't still walk when it rains.
You must know the weight of the copper coffin, if it is all yellow mud, it is estimated that the wheels will sink into the mud and the book will not come.
Boss Huang saw that the Taoist of Qianhe did not object to his opinion, and even the kid who often sang against him did not refute it, and he smiled at the moment, and when he walked back, he felt that the muddy water on the road was particularly pleasing to the eye.
The head of the Thousand Crane Dao was pleased, it seems that his nephew has also grown up.
The guys and coachmen who have quickened their pace of travel have no time to chat and fart and complain at this time.
There was an eerie silence in the procession, and only the sound of wheels and stones could be heard.
It was another dark day, and the crescent moon was a little exposed.
There were no problems in rushing for a few days, which made Hu Xiaofei also begin to relax his vigilance a little.
Just when everyone was tired of a day and was sleeping, a group of men in black quietly appeared at the edge of the forest.
Most of the men were armed with rifles, and their steps were light, even though they made a sound through the overgrown woods.
The leader observed the situation of the camp and was basically sure that there were no night watchmen in this convoy, so he made a gesture to the people behind him.
Behind him, more than a dozen black-clothed men with bows and arrows came up, and these people lit the arrows and began to shoot arrows at Hu Xiaofei's tent on their side.
When the first arrow was fired, Hu Xiaofei woke up, saw the fire outside, and hurriedly cast a talisman spell on himself.
This spell is not very good for zombies and ghosts, because whether it is a zombie or a ghost, they have special abilities, such as zombies' corpse qi, ghosts' resentment and yin qi, etc., which can break the defense of the talisman.
However, only ordinary swords and firearms are not very powerful against this charm.
This charm is mainly used to deal with people.
"Be careful, don't run around, hide behind."
At this time, a coachman ran in the direction of Hu Xiaofei, but he didn't run a few steps before he was hit in the head by a bullet.
Looking at the confusion in the man's eyes and his reluctance to this world, Hu Xiaofei had nowhere to vent his evil anger in his chest for a while.
Looking at the edge of the woods, the fire brought out by the shooting, Hu Xiaofei pulled out the small sword behind Shen and quickly approached the edge of the woods.
At his speed, that distance was only a few seconds.
As for those gunmen, let's not talk about whether they can hit or not, even if they do, it will be no problem for Hu Xiaofei to carry a few shots with the talisman on his body.
Seeing that Hu Xiaofei rushed to this side so quickly, the leader hurriedly retreated, and at this time, two zombies with defeated faces and fangs came out from behind him.
But these two zombies are different from ordinary zombies, there is no talisman paper on the door of the head, but there is no harm to anyone.
Seeing these two zombies, Hu Xiaofei remembered a technique that his master had told him, called corpse training.
After the two corpses saw Hu Xiaofei, they directly waved their claws and flew up, moving quickly without the slightest stiffness.
Seeing the two corpses approaching, Hu Xiaofei didn't care about chasing those gunmen anymore, and hurriedly swung his sword to meet them.
The sword light flashed, sliding over the arm of a corpse, although a hole was made in the arm of the corpse, and jet-black blood flowed out, but it could not stop the pace of his attack.
When Hu Xiaofei saw this, he had no choice but to quickly retreat, take out the corpse suppression talisman from his arms, and throw it at the two corpses.
However, the corpse practitioners didn't seem to be too afraid of the corpse suppression talisman, and although there was a little fire on their bodies after being hit, they just took two steps back and wrapped themselves up again.
The Chizuru Daoist also noticed the situation here at this time and shouted loudly.
"Xiao Fei, use an evil talisman to deal with the corpse."
However, as soon as he spoke, he caught the attention of the gunners, and several black-clad gunmen turned their guns to shoot at him.
But fortunately, he also has spells such as talisman charms, and he was not harmed, but he was suppressed by the gunman, and it was difficult to rescue Hu Xiaofei.
When Hu Xiaofei saw this, he felt that it was better to deal with these gunmen first, otherwise their killing power would be too great.
"Fortunately, there are two evil charms drawn, which can solve the urgent needs of the moment." Hu Xiaofei secretly rejoiced.
The black-clothed man in the lead also heard the words of the Thousand Crane Dao Chief, it turned out that the young man in front of him didn't know the weakness of corpse training, and actually wanted to use the corpse suppression talisman to suppress corpse training, it seemed that he was a novice in Taoist cultivation.
Even if he knew that he was afraid of evil talismans, how much talisman paper could he have, because when he went out, ordinary Taoist priests rarely brought evil talismans.
Besides, he was originally a master of corpse training, how could he not know the weakness of corpse training.
Seeing Hu Xiaofei throwing the talisman at the corpse practitioner again, the man in black also took out one or two talismans from his arms and threw them towards the corpse.
The talismans collided in mid-air, and after a dull explosion, they both spontaneously combusted, turning into ashes and falling to the ground.
Seeing Hu Xiaofei throw over two talismans again, the man in black waved his hand.
Another explosion.
"Haha, boy, let me see how many evil charms you brought with you when you went out."
