I heard it's not good to be a magic stick

Chapter 60 The Second Mission

This is a pure black sandy beach, the setting sun is about to fall, the dark blue water becomes darker brown, blurring the boundary between sea and land.

Five men, armed with weapons, walked briskly on the beach.

The fine wind swirls around the black sand, tentatively moving forward bit by bit, like a sand net, with a soft voice, dancing enchantingly around the men, sculpting their waists, passing over their faces , playing and chasing each other, wanting to envelop them in this gentle town, but they dare not touch their weapons.

No matter how gentle the wind and sand is, the men have no intention of stopping.Chai Ziyang walked in the front with a black whip in his hand, his eyes seemed to have just woken up from a frozen lake, with extreme chill.

Followed by Cao Lianwei, who is high-spirited and arrogant, he seems not nervous at all, holding a short halberd hastily in his right hand, and the tattooed dragon on his arm is opening his teeth and claws as he swings his arm, as if looking to the outside world. Demonstrating, and wanting to laugh at it, looking at everything outside, very frivolous.

Yan Xi and Li Jingxing walked side by side in the middle, their weapons were in their waists and backpacks respectively, and they were wrapped in black cloth and did not show their faces.Yan Xi withdrew his usual gentleness, observed the surroundings vigilantly, his face lost his smile, his usual kindness and kindness disappeared without a trace, while Li Jingxing's face was full of sternness, his eyes were surprisingly sharp.

Hanging at the end was Jiao Yun, a member of the White Tiger Division. His hands were tightly clasped on the mechanical bow, his eyes were watching all directions, his ears were listening, and he was extremely sensitive to any noise.

A few people walked a few steps, and the wind and sand suddenly became bigger, as if the gentle girl couldn't keep her sweetheart, and turned into a manic bitter woman, rolling in front of them, and soon formed a barrier as high as one person.

"Bump your head against the wall," Yan Xi said.

Hitting the head wall is caused by the accumulation of resentment and evil. People who practice Taoism can see it clearly, but ordinary people can't see it.Once someone accidentally breaks through the wall, it is tantamount to bringing evil spirits into the body, and the brain will soon produce some reactions. When the luck is not good, it is very likely to cause emotional instability and make impulsive and irreversible decisions.

This kind of bumping wall is most likely to appear in high-rise buildings, roads, and waterfronts.

"Heh, it's a small skill." Cao Lianwei snorted disdainfully, took a quick step, came to the front of the crowd, picked up the short halberd and chopped it off.

Li Jingxing noticed that there was a dragon's head hovering on the short halberd, and there was a spell engraved on the handle, which meant "call all gods, gods and ghosts."

If it was an ordinary weapon, it might not have any effect in front of the wind and sand wall, but when the Taoist short halberd with the effect of suppressing evil was thrown out, the wind and sand wall collapsed instantly as if someone had been stabbed in the middle.

Cao Lianwei buried his head and walked through the sand wall that was about to be scattered. The wind and sand struggled, and was crushed into the palm of Chai Ziyang's palm while intertwined to keep him.

"Have you smelled it?" Cao Lianwei sniffed the smell in the air, "The smell of decay."

The lifeless fine sand flowed from his fingers, and Chai Ziyang sneered mercilessly, in exchange for everyone's attention.

Jiao Yun's muscles have been tense since he came here. He raised the mechanical bow in his hand and kept vigilant.

Li Jingxing squatted down slowly, grabbed a handful of black sand, rubbed it with his hand a few times, put it under his nose and sniffed it.

Yan Xi asked: "What?"

"It smells fishy."

"Fish smell?" Yan Xi frowned in thought, but Jiao Yun interrupted impatiently: "This is the seaside, so of course it smells fishy."

"It's not the fishy smell of the sea." Li Jingxing stood up and put the black scalp film in his hand in front of Yan Xi's eyes.

"This is......"

Li Jingxing nodded lightly: "Be careful, the enemy may know that we are coming, so be prepared."

Chai Ziyang didn't care, raised his chin, and walked in front alone.

Cao Lianwei looked at the rest of the people and said, "Let's go, it's useless to stay here, it's better to meet them."

Li Jingxing and Yan Xi exchanged glances, and followed Chai Ziyang.

Jiao Yun was in favor of being more conservative, letting the opponent show up first, finding out the enemy's strength before attacking, the chances of winning were better, but before he had time to express his opinion, the others left.

Seeing that everyone was moving forward, he naturally didn't want to lag behind. He only hesitated for a moment before following the big team: "What is the strength of our opponent?"

"What opponent, a mob." Cao Lianwei said casually, full of confidence.

Jiao Yun quickened his feet and asked Chai Ziyang, "Then where are you taking us?"

Chai Ziyang continued to walk forward with his head held high, deaf to Jiao Yun's words, his facial features were profound, with a particularly deep sense of beauty, and a sharp arc.

Yan Xi watched from behind. This Chai Ziyang has always been frivolous. Even Yan Xi felt a little embarrassed looking at Jiao Yun who was poor at words. There are clues."

"Yun?" As a first-level team member Yueqian ago, Jiao Yun was able to react to Yan Xi's reminder.He looked up, and sure enough, he saw a large dark red cloud, right in front of them.

In the entire sky, except for this piece of dark red cloud, there is only one solitary setting sun.

The few people walked several hundred meters, and there was a vast arc of the coast in front of them. The sea roared violently, and wave after wave issued a deterrent warning sound. Down even more crazily covered by the back waves.

"Are these villains still planning to not show their faces?" Cao Lianwei couldn't help feeling anxious, wishing he could clear up the situation quickly so that he could go back and claim credit.

"Maybe they really don't intend to fight head-on." Yan Xi looked around, no one was there.

The quieter it is, the more disturbing it seems.

Jiao Yun said angrily, "Are we waiting here?"

While everyone remained silent, Li Jingxing said lightly, "Send some evil spirits here."

Although his tone was not fluctuating, this sentence attracted the attention of other people. Chai Ziyang looked at Li Jingxing with narrowed eyes, and said with a sneer, "I thought you couldn't find out?"

"It's just one step faster than you." Li Jingxing had a faint smile on his face, his eyebrows were cut like a knife, and he usually had an aura of keeping strangers away, this faint smile added a bit of confidence.

When all the people were paying attention to the movements around, Chai Ziyang had already smelled a strange and indifferent smell along with the sea breeze. Just as he was about to answer the conversation, Li Jingxing's reaction was faster than him.

Chai Ziyang's words just now had a sour smell of dissatisfaction. He never thought that Li Jingxing, who had always been silent, would take up the rebuttal with such pride.

Is this provocation?

Chai Ziyang also laughed, but on the contrary, his words became more and more cold: "Wait a while and see the real trick."

"Okay." Li Jingxing's face was indifferent and calm.

This tense atmosphere made Cao Lianwei and Yan Xi a little uncomfortable.

After Xuanming lost the Xuanwu Talisman, he has been in a backward position in the fourth part of Xuanji. Even the Xuanming headquarters does not wait to see the Xuanming Guard. Yan Xi, a poor commander, has been working for several years. The state of dawdling in drought and flood.

And Suzaku has always thought highly of himself, not to mention Xuanming, the other branches may not be able to compete with Suzaku, and the central part of Xuanhui always entrusts Suzaku with important tasks, Cao Lianwei is even more complacent.

And Chai Ziyang, as the veteran of Suzaku, is also the only member of Xuanji at the daily level, which really made Cao Lianwei look bad, let alone the other branches.

But since the military division decided to reorganize the Xuanming Guard, the newly recruited personnel of Xuanming are almost another Suzaku. When going to Cambodia to perform missions, Xuanhui only sent Suzaku Chai Ziyang to the mission, but sent three Xuanming The team members went, this decision made the people in charge of the fourth department somewhat confused. Among them, Cao Lianwei was the first to bear the brunt.

When is it the turn of Yan Xi, the prodigal son, to be proud?Cao Lianwei must rush to attack this time. In the process, it would be best if he could give Yan Xi and Li Jingxing a blow.

However, Yan Xi is a kind person, and Li Jingxing is not a persimmon.

Cao Lianwei is not a person who can suffer from being dumb, let alone holding back his breath, and turned his head to teach Li Jingxing: "Young people have too few missions, so it is inevitable that they overestimate themselves. New players will have problems such as arrogance, but the truth will be Teach you how to behave."

The last sentence, he said meaningfully.

Yan Xi was about to respond, but was cut off by Li Jingxing: "Too much nonsense."

"What did you say?" Cao Lianwei was so angry that he almost ran away. He was the person in charge of Suzaku, the head of the four ministries. How dare this brat be so disrespectful.

Li Jingxing said unceremoniously: "Didn't you notice that the evil spirit is very close by just trampling on your own people?"

"Where is it?" Jiao Yun asked this question. He was still watching a good show just now, expecting Suzaku and Xuan Ming to turn their faces on the spot, but Li Jingxing's words made his hairs stand on end.

Yan Xi silently put her hand on the needle pocket at her waist.

Chai Ziyang sat on the wall and watched the whole process. He folded his arms and looked in the direction of the sea.

Li Jingxing pointed to the direction of Chai Ziyang's gaze: "There are foreign objects in the sea."

The sun has been submerged by the ocean current, and the auspicious clouds are surrounded by darkness, only the red edge is still struggling to support the little bit of light left.

But in the sea, there is nothing.Only the waves are bigger, rolling violently, rushing to the shore more arrogantly than before, and fading away weakly.

Jiao Yun took out a folding bow and arrow from his backpack, and the bowstring was drawn against his cheek, aiming at a 45-degree angle upward, and as soon as he let go of his raised index finger, the arrow quickly flew to the surface of the sea and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

In the noisy sea waves, he listened carefully to identify the sound.

Li Jingxing glanced at him, guessing that this person's natural spiritual power is wind-like and ear-like, and with this folding bow with high accuracy, great power and extremely long range in his hand, he is indeed quite capable.

However, this man was so accurate in shooting arrows that he was actually blocked by Chai Ziyang when he attacked Zhang Linle earlier. It seems that Chai Ziyang's skill is even more difficult to evaluate.

When Jiao Yun heard the sound, he looked extremely puzzled, and hesitantly said, "Wood."

"Wood?" Cao Lianwei thought for a while, "The wood floating on the sea, is it a ship?"

"I'll try again." Jiao Yun took several bows and arrows and put them on the bowstring, pulled with all his strength, and the arrows formed a sharp arc in the air.

After shooting all the arrows, he listened carefully again. The others saw that he was listening carefully, so they didn't want to disturb him. This time, Jiao Yun's expression was even more strange: "One of the arrows missed."

"Does this prove that the wood is not big?" Yan Xi concluded succinctly.

Jiao Yun nodded: "According to the structure of the ship, the sound of the swords would not be so neat, it is definitely a wooden plank."

Cao Lianwei frowned, and couldn't think of a clue for a while, so he could only mutter to himself: "If it's not a boat, what could it be?"

"Maybe it's a coffin." Li Jingxing said.

Li Jingxing's words reminded others that a large number of planks that can float on the sea will not be a ship.

"You mean the floating coffin on the water?" Yan Xi frowned.

Chai Ziyang's proud and pointed chin finally lowered a little after these words, and he gave Li Jingxing a sideways look.

Cao Lianwei was obviously more anxious, and said inconceivably: "The floating coffin on the water is an early method of trapping souls. After death, people pay attention to burrowing into the ground for peace. It can make the soul unable to rest in peace, endure endless pain, and turn into a murderous corpse after being soaked in water, which is very likely to harm the living."

"Over time, it will affect the feng shui magnetic field, and it will also affect the fortunes of the descendants of the deceased," Yan Xi sighed, and continued, "The descendants of the deceased may have a short life, and may not die well."

Jiao Yun didn't know Feng Shui, and was not interested in this set of theories, so he interrupted their discussion: "What we do is hunting souls. If ghosts are afraid of us, come and kill a pair to make them look good."

Yan Xi shook her head: "Of course a few murderous corpses are not scary, what I'm worried about is coming..."

Jiao Yun really listened carefully, Yan Xi suddenly stopped talking, Jiao Yun said anxiously: "Team Yan, you should talk..."

As he spoke, he followed Yan Xi's gaze and was suddenly taken aback, but didn't speak the second half of the sentence.As far as the line of sight can see, there are already densely packed dark things, like dozens of light boats on the sea.

It's so far away that I really can't see what it is.

"Is it a coffin?" Jiao Yun took a breath.

No one can answer his question. This day's natural spiritual power is given by the patriarch to eat. I can't give you a good ear. There is also a clairvoyant who will pair up with you to fight monsters, right?

No one could see clearly, and naturally no one could answer him.

"Everyone, have you brought a flashlight?" Yan Xi asked.

When the others were asking questions, they also noticed that the sky was getting dark and the sea was rapidly rising.

There was still a distance of a hundred meters just now, and the sea water was overwhelming, and now it is only less than 30 meters away from everyone.

And the purple auspicious clouds coming from the east in the sky were also covered by the night, and the black clouds were overwhelming, as if God had closed his eyes.

"Crack, click, click." Everyone turned on the bright flashlights and fixed them all on their wrists. As long as they kept raising their hands, they could see things in front of them.

I don't know if these hundreds of "light boats" are drifting closer, or the sea tide is rising faster, or both. Finally, several people gradually see the tricks on the sea.

"It really is a floating coffin on the sea." Yan Xi sighed.

The floating coffins are large at one end and small at the other, with a coffin lid, and the thick corners are so rotten that an adult can kick a hole open with a little force.

The floating coffins came along with the bumps of the sea, and as we got closer, we found that these coffins were obviously much wider than ordinary wooden coffins. Each coffin could fit three or four people in it, and the edges were curved, following them in a haphazard manner. The waves rushed towards several people.

"Are these coffins swollen by sea water? Why are they so big?" Jiao Yun's brows furrowed.

"This is the Shuangxian Coffin." Yan Xi said, "In ancient times, people who died abnormally had no time to make a coffin, so they would put two corpses in one large coffin, commonly known as the Shuangxian Coffin."

"Immortal?" Jiao Yun had a questioning expression on his face.

"It's just a kind of good wish among the people. People can't be resurrected after death, but they can return to heaven. Death is like life. A good coffin gives a meaning of blessing. I hope that the deceased can live a happy life in heaven or another world. "Yan Xi explained.

What's more, it has something to do with Feng Shui, Jiao Yun is not interested, he is more curious about what's in the coffin, and hastily asked: "You mean there are two dead people in one coffin?"

He roughly estimated that there were at least forty or fifty coffins rushing towards them one after another. If there were two corpses in one coffin, there would be nearly a hundred evil spirits fighting with them.

It's just that ordinary evil spirits are easy to deal with, but this fierce corpse on the sea is trapped in soul and has become a ghost. It has been refined by the essence of the sun and moon for a long time, so it may not be so easy to deal with.

"Dead people are not scary, what's scary is that we don't know our opponents." Yan Xi pointed to the floating clouds in the sky, "Look, even the auspicious clouds of the military division are gone."

Li Jingxing felt uneasy for a while, and had a faint idea. He looked at Yan Xi, who shook his head helplessly at him: "I can't care about this much anymore, if it comes, let it be safe, and when water comes, soil will cover soldiers to block it."

Li Jingxing immediately cast a sidelong glance at Chai Ziyang, Chai Ziyang was expressionless, rubbed his thumb against the head of the black whip a few times, and suddenly squeezed it tightly.

"let's hit."

The latest batch of coffins has landed on the shore. The lids of the coffins were lifted vigorously, and rotten corpses crawled out of the coffins. The corpse was glued together, two heads and multiple limbs could be vaguely discerned, the white breastbone protruded, and seaweed was still hanging on the leg bones, making it extremely ugly.

The bodies of the murderous corpses were dripping with water, their mouths were wide open, but their tongues were missing. They let out hoarse howls from their salt-pickled throats, and rushed towards them in groups.

Yan Xi's voice was the first to grab the attention, and he chanted Taoism and flew a row of needles in his hand. When they were inserted into the body of the murderous corpse, they nailed the corpse to the ground like coffin nails, and soon melted into putrid mud.

Yan Xi is a Taoist priest of the Quanzhen Sect, while Li Jingxing is a Taoist priest of the Orthodox School of the folk.The former is more capable of explaining Taoist concepts in a traceable way, he has learned the Tao Te Ching backwards, and he is also proficient in scientific rituals and rituals.

Li Jingxing, a folk Taoist priest, has learned a very practical set of spells, and he has almost mastered the essence of most of the Taoist skills of killing demons and exorcising evil. When Yan Xi tried out the trick just now, he knew that Xuanming's captain used The Bone Transformation Method blesses the needle, so the moment the needle flies into these corpses, it will have this power.

More murderous corpses stepped on the rotting corpses on the ground and rushed over. Jiao Yun drew the bowstring and attacked from a distance, and several corpses fell down.

More corpses pushed and bit the corpse in front of them, scrambling to get closer to the five people.The black whip suddenly circled the head of a corpse, and Chai Ziyang's hand moved hard, and the head of the corpse moved.

When these extremely ugly water sticks got very close, it was Cao Lianwei and Li Jingxing's turn to show their skills. They rushed to the front line, wielding the golden dragon bayonet, inserting the coiling dragon short halberd, and immediately killed in full swing.

Cao Lianwei just picked and killed one, looked at the carrion on the halberd, and said, "Is it just a trick? They think they didn't die thoroughly enough, just right, I'll take it as a vent."

Li Jingxing kept a cold face and said nothing. When Cao Lianwei shouted, he had chopped up five or six corpses in a row.

"Wait a minute, they are changing, no, they are reborn!" Jiao Yun roared.

Chai Ziyang turned his head and watched the carrion on the ground grow rapidly again, as if splitting, and quickly turned into a murderous corpse again, standing upright.

He couldn't help cursing inwardly, this group of people repeated their tricks again, what kind of weird sorcery is it?They used their abilities to defeat one hundred, or even five hundred of these stupid corpses, but every time they killed, they got more divisions. The opponent obviously wanted to use the sea of ​​corpses tactics to drag down their strength.

If it goes on like this, can it be finished?Can it be destroyed?

They're not iron men. When everyone's strength is exhausted, aren't they surrounded by these low-level evil spirits?What a shame.

Yan Xi's weapon is more suitable for long-distance attack. He stood behind and observed for a while, and said loudly: "It's useless to use oppressive Taoism. Burn yourself with five thunders."

"Yes, with fire, they must be smashed to ashes to avoid future troubles." The whip in Chai Ziyang's hand turned scarlet again, like blazing lava overflowing from the black volcanic rock, ready to erupt at any time.

Li Jingxing protected the others behind him, calculating in his heart that the scope of the Taoist yang fire to be burned this time was too wide and needed enough support from Taoism.

When the folk Taoism is applied to the critical moment, in order to ensure the skill, it is necessary to observe the teacher silently.To put it simply, before using Taoism, you need to think about the face of the master, and get the spiritual power with a sincere heart.

Li Jingxing's master was his grandfather, he was deeply impressed, he only needed to concentrate a little bit, and he completed the step of observing the master silently.Afterwards, he immediately recited Wuleihuo: "Emperor of Heaven, Emperor of Earth, the light of fire in the disciple's hands... I am in a hurry as ordered by the Supreme Lord." An order came over.

Suddenly, Li Jingxing's Wuleihuo and Chai Ziyang's Firewhip launched an attack at the same time. The two relied on each other to build a three-meter-high wall of fire.

The two walked forward at the same time, and the wall of fire also advanced layer by layer with the steps, like a sandstorm with fire, expanding and spreading wantonly, sweeping the entire coastline in an instant.

The blazing flames burned into darkness, rolling and roaring, becoming more and more intense, with the potential to soar into the sky.The murderous corpses were like twisted paper in the flames, and they were instantly engulfed by the flames, making tiny explosion sounds.

"Well done!" Cao Lianwei praised.

His voice was too low in the sea of ​​flames, and the two who were in the midst of the battle didn't hear it at all. Li Jingxing and Chai Ziyang were determined to burn all the coffin boards washed ashore.

Yin and yang interact with each other, and flames cannot burn underwater, even the Taoist Wuleihuo. There are still a few coffin boards floating on the sea surface, and it is impossible to burn them all with one fire.

"Forget it." Yan Xi ran to Li Jingxing's side and pressed his shoulder.

Li Jingxing accepted the Taoism, his forehead was covered with sweat, Yan Xi took advantage of the other party's opportunity to wipe away his sweat and whispered: "Take some strength, I have a bad feeling."

"God, what is this?" Jiao Yun shouted hysterically, pointing to the distance.

As members of the Xuanhui, they can be anxious, calm, or even ruthless, but they can't be frightened.

If even Jiao Yun lost his sense of proportion, it would definitely not be a good thing.

"Dragon!" Jiao Yun roared palely.

In people's conception, dragon is a mythical existence. "Shu Yi Ji" has records of dragons in charge of the four seasons, and "Shan Hai Jing" has descriptions of dragons.There are many folk legends about dragons, most of which are people's illusions about gods in ancient times. They prefer to believe in "Guang Ya": Winged dragons are called Yinglong.

Many people think that a dragon has two wings, a scaled body with spines, a big head with a pointed snout, big eyes and high eyebrows, slender eyebrows, sharp teeth, protruding forehead, sharp claws, and a long tail tip, just like a winged dragon. The giant snake soars in the sky.

Jiao Yun's concept is exactly the same. Although he is engaged in the most mysterious work, he also believes that it is impossible for dragons to exist in this world.

But the scene in front of him was so similar to his previous imagination of dragons, it almost refreshed his three views, Jiao Yun pointed at the magical creature in the water, and shouted again tremblingly: "Oh my god, this is a dragon! It's a dragon!"

The wind was strong, and the last cloud in the sky was blown away, and the darkness spread in all directions, revealing an ominous look.

It seems like the dawn will never come.

The author has something to say:

Liver explosion is over, take a day off tomorrow, and continue the day after tomorrow.
