They were all ordinary constables, and the leader was just a martial artist at the Flesh and Skin Realm. When they saw Zhou Qing and the others coming, they immediately trotted over, bowing and nodding.

"Greetings, Master Zhou, Miss Yun. My name is Lin Chong, and I am a candidate for the Dingwu Division. I have been ordered to seal off this place and wait for the three of you."

"With the three of you taking action, the iron mine will be easily seized, and any thieves will be brought to justice."

Dingwu Envoy is the ninth-rank official position within the Dingwu Division system, the lowest rank. No matter whether it is the ninth rank or the ninth rank, it is called this, as opposed to the Ghost Suppression Envoy of the Ghost and God Division.

But no matter how low the rank is, he is still a rank, which is equivalent to being on the official list and having his own status, and he is the backbone of the Dingwu Division.

A candidate for Dingwu Envoy like Lin Chong has no rank or grade. He needs to accumulate experience, merits, and seize the opportunity before he has a chance to be promoted and remove the word "candidate".

Some people wait their whole lives, but never get that day, and never get a job.

However, if one's own strength is strong, then it will be easy to become a regular.

Or maybe... you have someone above you, so you can have smooth sailing.

Rules are only used to regulate ordinary people, and regulations are also used to restrict people without background.

Zhou Qing used to be the latter, with Lu Qingmo above him.

Now Zhou Qing has... both.

If you are strong enough, there are people above you.

This is the right way! Because of this man's name, Zhou Qing looked at him twice.

"No need to be polite, just tell me what's going on inside," Zhou Qing said.

"Yes, yes, last night, an old man from Tieshi Village..." Lin Chong recounted the incident in detail, in much greater detail than Yun Duo.

He then took Zhou Qing and the others to see the bodies of the victims.

Just as Yun Duo said, his body became shriveled and all his blood and essence were lost.

Zhou Qing squatted down and looked at the small holes on their necks.

"It is indeed a tooth mark..."

But it is impossible to tell what creature the tooth marks were from.

I actively used my mind to investigate and found no remaining alien aura on these corpses.

But Zhou Qing discovered that the sizes of these tooth marks were not the same.

The teeth marks on the necks of those warriors were larger and deeper.

The tooth marks on the necks of other mortals were smaller and had different shapes.

Zhou Qing looked at Yun Duo and the other person. They shook their heads, indicating that they hadn't discovered anything either.

After thinking about it, Zhou Qing secretly passed the message to the two of them.

"Is it possible that zombies are harming people?"

"How did you know that?" Yun Duo asked curiously.

Zhou Qing was speechless. I didn’t see that. I just watched too many zombie movies in my previous life…

"It is indeed possible." Yun Yun replied.

"If they are really zombies, will they transform into zombies?"

"No, their essence and blood have been sucked dry. These corpses are now extremely fragile."

Zhou Qing called Lin Chong over and asked, "Have many people died in the iron mine?"

If there is too much killing, evildoers will inevitably be born.

He didn't even ask if anyone had died, he just asked how many there were.

There is no need to ask the previous question, it is obvious.

In Zhou Qing's previous life, technology was advanced, but mineral mining was still one of the most dangerous industries, not to mention a world like this.

You can't just rely on a small iron mine. It's better for warriors and monks to go down to the mine and mine it themselves.

Lin Chong hesitated for a moment and said, "It should be quite a few."

"This iron mine has been mined for quite some time."

Zhou Qing nodded and told Lin Chong to continue the blockade, and then the three of them walked towards the iron mine.

"Why do they want to blockade the area so far away from the iron mine? Wouldn't it be easy for something to be missed?" Yun Duo asked.

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "Because compared to the mission, my life is more important."

Several teams of warriors in the Tendon and Veins Realm died suddenly in the iron mine. How could Lin Chong, who was in the Flesh and Skin Realm, lead a group of ordinary people to get close to the iron mine? Of course, the farther away they were, the better.

The above orders must be executed, but your own life is also important, so you have to be flexible.

When we arrived at the small iron mine, the temperature dropped instantly.

Looking around, the trees are lush, blocking out the sun, and the wind is blowing, with the leaves rustling.

Most of the mines have been abandoned, are extremely desolate, and are covered with cobwebs.

After long-term mining, this iron mine is on the verge of exhaustion.

"It's a bit cold." Yun Duo muttered.

"Gold evil, Yin evil, and blood evil gather here. The feng shui is not balanced, the sun does not shine, and the yin energy accumulates and does not dissipate. It is an evil land."

Yun Yun said softly, "If a mortal lives here for a long time, he will become mentally distressed and physically weak after a few years, and his vitality will be greatly reduced. He will not live long."

"Especially at the bottom of the mine, there's no ventilation, no air is released, and it's extremely filthy."

"It's normal for evil spirits to be born in a place like this."

Zhou Qing didn't say anything. The mine was just like that and it was not something he could change.

"No, the evil energy at the bottom of the mine is too strong. It affects my mental perception." Yun Duo shook his head.

Gold, iron, stone and water have an obstructive effect on the spiritual power of cultivators, and this kind of mineral vein is even more so.

"Are we going down into the mines?"

"Don't worry, I have a solution." Zhou Qing said, "It's too dangerous to go down the mine without knowing the situation."

It’s a pity that the God’s perspective has been refreshed, otherwise it would be a lot more convenient at this time.

People are always missing the past.

Zhou Qing's eyes lit up slightly as he scanned the mines. Various auras appeared before his eyes.

Taoism, the art of observing qi.

A few days before Brother Shu left, he gave this Taoist magic to Zhou Qing. Now he possesses this "talent" forever.

However, he is still at the entry level in this Taoist art.

Natural golden evil spirit, Yin evil spirit...

Zhou Qing swept through the many auras one by one, and then four thick auras that were different from the evil auras of heaven and earth were locked onto by Zhou Qing.

The breath of zombies!

The spirit of humanity!

There are three of the former, but only one of the latter, and the two are related, with their qi entangled with each other.

The four energies were all quite strong. Comparing them with Yun Duo and the other person, Zhou Qing roughly judged the strength of the Lord of Qi.

Zhou Qing's eyes narrowed, and he gradually understood the truth.

This is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster.

"Have there been cultivators who practice the art of refining corpses and controlling zombies come to Black Cloud Town..." Zhou Qing thought to himself.

"There are monks and three zombies under the mine." Zhou Qing sent a message to Yun Yun and the others.

"The strength of the three zombies should be around the internal organs realm, and their realms are not high. And I think he has probably discovered us."

Those who practice corpse refining are all experts in controlling evil spirits. Normally, evil spirits are actually a help to them.

"Three zombies at the internal organs level." Yun Yun was shocked.

"Do you want to call dad over?" Yun Duo said hurriedly.

“…”

Is it so straightforward to shake someone's hand?

"It won't alarm the head of the Yun family." Zhou Qing stopped Yun Duo from trying.

"We can deal with three zombies at the Viscera level, but how can we force this cultivator out..."

You absolutely cannot go down into the mine. If a fight breaks out down there, you would just bury yourself alive.

Zhou Qing was thinking, but suddenly found that the Yun sisters were looking at him with strange eyes.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Zhou Qing wondered.

"Three zombies in the internal organs realm and a cultivator whose background is unknown, how are we going to deal with them?" Yun Duo asked honestly.

Yun Yun shook her head slightly, "I am no match for three zombies."

I know you are no match.

But with me, the two of us together, that's fine.

But it's understandable that you don't know my true strength, after all, I'm used to keeping a low profile.

"You can fight. I have a backup plan." Zhou Qing said seriously:

"It's a very powerful one, absolutely infallible."

Yun Duo's eyes lit up, "Did the teacher give it to you?"

"I guess so. Aunt Mo also has a share."

"Which mine is that monk in?"

"The third one from the left is closest to him."

Without saying a word, Yun Duo took out a dark green bead, controlled it with his mental power, and threw the bead directly into the left third mine cave.

Then she set up a mental barrier at the entrance of the cave.

"Okay, we just need to wait for him to come out."

"What's this?"

"Weasel Qi Pearl." There was something strange in Yun Yun's voice, and she didn't use telepathy.

"It's a small thing made from the gas collected from the weasel beast. The effect is..."

"Damn... ugh... ugh!"

A voice of frustration and retching was heard.

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

“It stinks.”

Yun Yun finished her words.

Zhou Qing also understood.

He looked at the clouds and asked, "How come you have this thing?"

Yun Duo smiled sheepishly, "I caught a weasel last time I went into Black Mountain. I thought it was fun so I made this bead."

Naughty kids are scary.

The mental barrier that Yun Duo had simply set up was broken, and four figures quickly flew out of the mine, bringing out a stream of dark green gas.

Zhou Qing and the other two retreated repeatedly, covering their mouths and noses, and wrapping themselves with mental power to avoid being contaminated by the weasel aura.

I'm so scared.

A young man dressed in purple, with an extremely pale face that now had a faint blue hue, stirred up a strong wind and blew away all the weasel aura.

Around him, there were three zombies guarding him closely.

Two of the zombies were covered with light green hair, had exaggerated bulging muscles, dark green eyes, hands that had turned into sharp claws, hideous faces, and long, sharp fangs.

The other one was covered in purple and green hair, but its body was quite thin, with flower-like patterns on its face and purple eyes.

The purple-clothed youth stared at Yun Duo fiercely, "Did you throw away the Itachi Qi Ball?!"

Yun Duo nodded honestly and asked curiously:

"What does it smell like? Is it really that bad?"

Of course she took precautions when making beads.

She thought it was fun, but not just for herself.

The purple-clothed young man's eyes revealed a desire to kill.

"you……"

Zhou Qing interrupted him, "Wait a minute, don't talk yet."

"Why?"

"It stinks. It makes me feel sick."

How is this different from talking shit?

The Yun sisters immediately laughed.

The purple-robed young man's expression immediately turned gloomy.

"you……"

"Wait a moment." Zhou Qing interrupted him again.

Are you done yet?!

"You attacked and killed people from the imperial court. Are you going to resist arrest now?"

"I have never killed anyone from the imperial court. What you are talking about has nothing to do with me." The purple-clothed young man said, "I am only using this place to practice, but you are the ones who disturbed me!"

None of your business?

Zhou Qing frowned, "Since you said you have nothing to do with this matter, then come with us to the Ghost and God Department. After we find out the truth, if you are really innocent, we will let you go."

"How can I have a good ending if I go to the Ghost and God Department with you?" The young man in purple sneered.

"Retreat immediately. If you continue to affect my practice, don't blame me for being rude."

"It's a bother." Zhou Qing shook his head. "Since you don't want to go with us, we have no choice but to ask you to go."

The fact that this person appeared here at such a time already made him extremely suspicious. It was impossible for Zhou Qing to let him go just because of his one-sided words.

"Taibai Zhouqing, Yun sisters, I didn't want to bother with you, but since you keep pestering me..."

The purple-clothed young man shouted coldly, "Then go to hell!"

The two green-haired zombies beside him leaped suddenly and rushed towards Zhou Qing and the other two.

"It's a green zombie! Judging from the color of its hair, it should be at the beginning of the internal organs realm."

Yun Yun looked solemn and said in a voice transmission, "Zhou Qing, what is Lu Duguan's backup plan? Use it."

Zhou Qing smiled and took out a sledgehammer.

"That back-up plan is both far away and right in front of us."

"That's me."

"I am your foolproof guarantee!"

Zhou Qing raised the hammer and smashed it down.

Thirty-six ways of blasting the sky! When fighting zombies, plants are the first choice.

There are no plants available now, so the hammer is perfect.

Looking at Zhou Qing's back, the Yun sisters were confused.

This so-called back-up plan is to let you feed the zombies, or even starve them to death? "Little sister, stay away and protect yourself."

Yun Yun was stunned for only a moment, then she jumped out with a sword in her hand to support Zhou Qing.

Although she was puzzled, she would not abandon Zhou Qing at this time.

But she had just moved a little distance when she stopped again.

What did she see? In front of him, Zhou Qing swung his hammer and swept two green zombies, sending them flying. He could even hear the sound of broken bones.

Looking at the domineering figure holding the hammer, Yun Yun's body suddenly stiffened, and then relaxed.

She gripped the sword tightly in her hand.

A foolproof guarantee?

The two green zombies fell to the ground, and when they stood up again, there was an obvious collapse in their chests.

Zombies, the dead bodies are revived, the evil spirits forge the bodies, the bodies are made of iron and steel, and they are painless and feelless.

In terms of strength, these two zombies are about the same as the ones that first entered the internal organs, but their zombie bodies are extremely hard and extremely troublesome.

But under Zhou Qing's iron hammer, even the green zombie's body with iron skin and bones could not resist.

With his tendons and veins fully developed, Zhou Qing's strength increased further, and the strong tendons and veins gave him even greater explosive power.

Yun Yun was silent, Yun Duo clapped excitedly, and the young man in purple was stunned, and then his face changed.

"Taibai Zhouqing, everyone underestimated you. You actually have the strength of the internal organs realm."

"You hid it really well!"

Zhou Qing came over with a hammer and ignored the man.

Hiding? You can't see it, so you say I'm hiding it, right?

"call!"

The wind was howling, and the zombie with purple and green hair beside the young man in purple also rushed over. A large amount of corpse mist spread out from his body and enveloped the mine.

At the same time, a soul force surged out of the zombie, distorting the area.

Within the corpse fog, the three zombies have been enhanced to a certain extent.

"Be careful, this is a ghost corpse!"

Yun Yun shouted, rushing towards the ghost corpse she mentioned with a sword.

"You do have some knowledge." The voice of the young man in purple rang out, reverberating in the corpse fog, with repeated echoes.

"But you still have to die! I will cultivate your corpses using the best corpse refining method, and use them to fight for me!"

"But before that, I can enjoy these two beauties."

"Zhou Qing, you are a rare genius. If you are willing to be my dog, I can spare your life and give them to you to play with."

I want to play, do I need your reward...

No, I am not the kind of person who plays with feelings and bodies? !

Two thousand monthly tickets soon!
