Chapter 66: Qinglian Swordsman
Lu Qingming was rarely relaxed for a while, and then became cold again, and he didn't say a word to Han Yun along the way, which made Han Yun almost think that everything just now was just a dream.
The two of them didn't travel far to a distance, only half a day's journey - they didn't go directly to the northern section of the Chaos Mountains, but came to a nearby place that had been attacked by zombies. No one would venture into the Chaos Mountains unless he was a fool or a man who lived in a secluded mansion. Whether it is a person who walks the rivers and lakes or a genius disciple of the sect, he understands that he does not know much about zombies at present, and he should investigate and judge the strength and behavior of zombies from more aspects, and make a series of self-protection countermeasures.
The first place the two arrived at was a small village near the northern section of the Chaos Mountains, where zombies were first discovered, and it was only from here that it was possible to deduce when the carrion disappeared and the zombies appeared.
Although Lu Qingming's personality is already changing, it is impossible to let him communicate with others at present, let alone this kind of inquiring about the situation, if he is allowed to go, he will definitely not be able to ask anything, and he may even offend many people because of it. So, Han Yun was the only one to move.
The village was gloomy and bleak, and there was a bloody smell everywhere, but the breath of living beings seemed out of place in it, and it was extremely unique. The houses here are dilapidated, presumably caused by the zombie invasion and fighting - although there are not many warriors in this world, they are scattered all over the place, and even in the dilapidated villages, there may be one or two warriors.
Ordinary people have almost become rare animals here, some of them are dead, some are injured, some are lucky to escape, and the rest are just some lonely people who survived but couldn't leave.
However, it was the locals who left, and now there are quite a few people here, all of whom are warriors who have recently come from outside to investigate the zombie incident.
Han Yun didn't bother to find the local survivors, but directly looked for those martial artists who arrived here first, they had been here for a long time, and they had already learned almost all the information, and it was enough to ask them to understand.
It's just that not every martial artist can be calm and kind to others, and most martial artists will not casually disclose news to others. However, Han Yun's identity is not simple, the core three disciples of the Xuanbing Pavilion, the famous top geniuses of the Luoxia Empire, although those martial artists are arrogant, but they must give Han Yun a face, which is equivalent to giving the Xuanbing Pavilion a face, because Han Yun's trip represents the entire Xuanbing Pavilion power - the news of the arrival of the elders of the Four Pavilions has not yet reached here, so in their eyes, Han Yun can represent the Xuanbing Pavilion.
"Shen Ming's senior. Han Yun shouted to an elegant man not far away.
The elegant man was stunned for a moment, slowly turned his head, looked at Han Yun in surprise, and then looked calm, and asked lightly, "Do you know me?" He glanced at Han Yun left and right, and immediately saw Han Yun's cultivation clearly, and also recognized Han Yun's identity.
"Shen Ming's predecessor has reached the Ning Yuan Realm at the age of twenty-four, and as a casual cultivator, he enjoys the reputation of 'Qinglian Swordsman' in the rivers and lakes, how could the junior Han Yun not know him?" Han Yun replied with a smile.
"Hehe, it turned out to be 'Ten Thousand Miles of Cold Ice Hand' Han Yun, compared to a genius like you, what can my Shen Ming's achievements be counted as?" said the elegant man Shen Ming chuckled and looked at Han Yun.
Then, Shen Mingyou looked at Lu Qingming not far away, his brows furrowed slightly, his eyes were like a sword, and he stabbed at Lu Qingming, and the sharp sword qi made the air extremely sharp.
Lu Qingming's eyes stared, looking directly at Shen Ming, and the same edge greeted him.
Two sharp auras disturbed the air.
Shen Ming is known as the "Qinglian Swordsman", he is also a pure kendo martial artist, and his cultivation has already reached the realm of Ning Yuan, and now he doesn't know what realm he has reached, his edge is not as small as that.
However, Lu Qingming experienced life and death, re-cultivated the way of the sword, killed three thousand, and his murderous aura was almost substantial, and his edge far exceeded the momentum of a martial artist of the same level.
After a while, sword marks appeared in the surrounding buildings, and the two finally stopped and retracted their sword momentum, and everything finally calmed down.
Shen Ming and Lu Qingming looked at each other for a while before they smiled and said, "I am 'Qinglian Swordsman' Shen Ming, and I have a first glimpse of sword intent. ”
Lu Qingming's expression was even colder, and he said coldly: "I am 'Devil Swordsman' Lu Qingming, and I have my first glimpse of sword intent. ”
"Yes, at such a young age, I have already caught up with the achievements that I have been immersed in for more than ten years. Shen Ming sighed from the bottom of his heart, he had to express his admiration for the young people of this generation, they already had achievements that others couldn't get by fighting at a young age, I really didn't know that they would eventually reach that point, he was really looking forward to it, "It's that the sword intent is too bloody and too sharp." You must know that it is easy to fold if it is too rigid. ”
Lu Qingming was slightly stunned, then nodded and said, "Thank you for your advice." ”
"Don't dare to be. Shen Ming knew that the other party had listened to his words, and he was satisfied, and waved his hand and said, "I'm really looking forward to your generation growing up." The great world is coming, geniuses are emerging in an endless stream, you still need to work hard, at least now the younger generation of Ning Yuan Realm masters are the target of your pursuit, especially Xiao Zheng of Jin Ling Pavilion, he has reached the peak of the early stage of Ning Yuan. Speaking of this, Shen Ming looked at Lu Qingming vaguely.
Lu Qingming touched his nose and admitted: "The junior is Lu Qingyu back then. ”
"Hehe, there's still work to be done. Shen Ming didn't have a good posture, but just encouraged him.
Han Yun hadn't spoken since the two swordsmen met just now, and he knew that he was able to say at this time: "Senior Shen, I don't know if you can investigate and deal with any clues?"
Speaking of exactly, Shen Ming frowned slightly and said, "Alas...... A little bit was found, but it was terrifying, and this zombie incident seemed unexpectedly terrifying. ”
"Oh?" Although Han Yun had heard the horror of the zombie incident from Lu Qingming a long time ago, he never believed it in his heart, and when he heard Shen Ming say this again, he had to be cautious.
"It is understood that this village originally had a population of three hundred, of which there were ten martial artists, and two of them were in the middle of the Ning Yuan Realm. However, in the face of the three-headed zombie that appeared for the first time at the time of the duel, it couldn't be delayed for even a moment, which shows the strength of the zombies. Shen Ming said.
Lu Qingming then thought for a moment and muttered, "Sure enough, mid-level zombies have appeared, and there are quite a few. ”
"But that doesn't seem scary. Han Yun asked suspiciously.
"Alas...... If only that were it. Shen Ming let out a long sigh and continued, "But, do you know what happened after that? More than a hundred zombies appeared, and two percent of them were mid-level zombies. And that's just what happened here, several other villages and towns also saw waves of zombies at the same time, many of them in the hundreds. After summarizing all the data, the number of zombies that appeared that day reached as many as 2,000, and the intermediate zombies accounted for more than 10%. ”
"Hiss......" Han Yun gasped, and after listening to Shen Ming's analysis, he realized that zombies appeared in multiple villages at the same time, so calculated, the number of zombies was really as Lu Qingming said, extremely many, and there were many intermediate zombies equivalent to Ning Yuan Realm, and even more so because of their almost immortal characteristics, such a force was very terrifying, at least the martial artists who had arrived so far were impossible to fight against.
The three of them fell silent for a moment.
