Chapter 16: Demon Mask Upgrade, Black-Haired Zombie

The scene seemed a little quiet at this time. Yang Ye, Wang Changye and others came to the scene one after another. They looked at the corpse on the ground and fell into shock.

"Huh..."

Yang Ye took a deep breath, walked towards the corpse of the corpse ghost, squatted down, checked the condition of the corpse, and the shock in his eyes could no longer be stopped.

"This... this..."

Yang Ye opened his mouth, and he was a little difficult to accept for a while, "One sword beheaded! This corpse ghost was beheaded by a sword master with one sword."

"One sword!"

"Just one sword!"

"What?!"

Wang Changye widened his eyes. After hearing what Yang Ye said, he was also a little shocked. He walked over quickly, squatted down, and checked the corpse of the corpse ghost.

"It really was a sword that cut off the head."

Wang Changye also saw it, "There are probably not many masters in the outer city of Qingbei Town who can have such swordsmanship and cut off the head of a corpse ghost with one sword."

"Yes."

Yang Ye nodded, "The incision is so smooth. There are indeed not many people in the outer city of Qingbei Town who can do such swordsmanship."

"Xu Qing."

Yang Ye raised his head, looked at Xu Qing, and asked, "You are the first person to arrive at the scene. Did you see other people when you came?"

"No...no."

Xu Qing shook his head He shook his head, his eyes were blank, his expression was blank, "I actually just came a little earlier than Captain Yang and you guys, I just arrived, and you guys have already arrived."

"And."

"When I came here, I didn't see anyone else, I only saw the corpse of the corpse ghost on the ground, I didn't know anything."

"What a pity."

Yang Ye shook his head, "If Xu Qing, you can see it, we can also figure out which senior master took action to solve this corpse ghost disaster."

From beginning to end.

Everyone present.

Yang Ye and Wang Changye and others did not suspect Xu Qing, they naturally could not think that Xu Qing was the 'swordsman master'.

However.

Only the two members following Xu Qing were slightly confused. In their opinion, with Xu Qing's speed and pace, he should have arrived here earlier than them.

Of course.

They did not continue to think deeply.

The next day.

Early morning.

Although a murder occurred in Hongye Street and a family of three was slaughtered by the corpse ghost, the corpse ghost had been eliminated, so Yang Ye and his team had made contributions.

Therefore.

When Xu Qing left today, he received twelve taels of silver. In addition to the original salary of two taels of silver per day, there was also a bonus of ten taels of silver.

"Not bad."

Xu Qing nodded with satisfaction.

Before going back.

Xu Qing went to the Cangying Martial Arts Hall and spent another thirty taels of silver to buy three catties of Tai Sui spirit meat. Then he returned to his residence and started practicing today.

Time passed quickly.

Today is the third day of patrolling.

In the evening.

"Huh..."

Xu Qing slowly exhaled a foul breath.

[Bajiquan LV5: 140/160 (……)]

"There is still twenty experience points missing."

Xu Qing pondered, "Forget it, I won't go on patrol today, and continue to practice martial arts. It only takes four hours for Bajiquan to be upgraded to another level."

Thinking of this.

Xu Qing continued to calm down and began to practice Bajiquan. With the wind of the fist sweeping over him, Xu Qing was already immersed in the mysteries of Bajiquan.

[Experience +1]

...

[Experience +1]

...

On the other side.

It was almost dark.

“Where are the people?”

Yang Ye’s face was ugly. Today was only the third day of patrol. Except for not being late yesterday, Xu Qing didn’t even come today.

"Captain Yang."

Wang Changye sneered and said, "I guess Xu Qing was scared by the corpse ghost yesterday, so he didn't dare to come today."

"What a waste."

Yang Ye took a deep breath and cursed, "If it wasn't for the face of Captain Zhao, he would have dared to be late on the first day. I will definitely make him pay."

"Today he didn't even come."

"Okay, okay."

Yang Ye glanced at Wang Changye and said, "Wang Changye, from now on, you will replace the position of deputy captain Xu Qing, and you will be the deputy captain."

"Thank you, captain."

Wang Changye's face was overjoyed.

In this way.

He can get twenty taels of silver tomorrow.

"Is Xu Qing really scared?"

"Tsk tsk..."

"Going through the back door is going through the back door. He really has no ability and is so timid. He just encountered a corpse ghost yesterday and didn't dare to come today."

"That's right..."

Other members were also talking about it, with sarcastic tone.

Time flies.

Late at night.

"Drink!"

Boom!

Xu Qing punched out with a loud bang. He looked out the window and saw that the sky outside had completely darkened. Many families had blown out their candles.

[Bajiquan LV5: 160/160 (upgradeable!)]

"Upgrade."

Xu Qing said softly.

Buzz!

The All Things Atlas flashed with a glow. In front of Xu Qing's eyes, countless little people seemed to appear. These little people were between illusion and reality, constantly practicing Bajiquan, and flooded into Xu Qing's mind.

Boom!

Xu Qing's mind was shaken, and his consciousness seemed to have entered a mysterious space. In this mysterious space, he continued to deduce Bajiquan and practice the martial arts secrets of Bajiquan.

Gradually.

Bajiquan became more advanced and mysterious in Xu Qing's hands.

[Bajiquan LV6: 0/320 (This is a profound boxing method that combines fighting and training methods. The movements are fierce, unpretentious, quick to exert force, and extremely explosive. It can condense the power of the flesh, blood, muscles, and bones of the whole body. Penetrating the muscles and bones, the dark strength is self-contained)]

Bang!

Xu Qing punched out, and a ripple-like vibration was faintly produced on his fist. The dark energy in his body became stronger, and his physical fitness and strength, as well as his own strength, also improved.

"call……"

Xu Qing exhaled a breath of turbid air, feeling the changes in himself, and nodded with satisfaction, "Bajiquan has been upgraded to the sixth level, and the dark energy in the body is also stronger."

"It's getting late."

Xu Qing looked at the sky again and said, "I found a reason to ask Yang Ye last night. The Yamen will probably find me out soon."

"Count the time."

"Tomorrow is the eleventh day since I joined the Goshawk Martial Arts School. It's less than half a month. Originally, I planned to show off my Goshawk strength in half a month."

"Now it seems that we can move forward a few days."

"As for the position of the night patrol team, it is just a transition for me, and it is also to inquire about the situation and news of the Yamen."

then.

Xu Qing planned to go back to the bedroom to rest.

"ah!!!"

Sudden.

Xu Qing had just been lying in bed for less than half an hour, and had just rested for a while, when he heard a shrill scream coming into his ears.

"Um?"

Xu Qing quickly opened his eyes, with a look of shock on his face. He climbed up from the bed, and with a flash of eyes, he found an iron sword and an evil ghost mask from the bedside.

The evil ghost mask was something Yu Chen got for Xu Qing before.

"Include."

Xu Qing's eyes fell on the evil ghost mask in his hand, and his consciousness communicated with the Illustrated Book of All Things. With the flash of the fluorescent light in the Illustrated Book of All Things, a white light that only Xu Qing could see flashed on the evil ghost mask.

[Evil Ghost Mask LV1: 0/5 (This is a mask made from clay by a skilled craftsman.)]

at the same time.

A piece of information appeared in Xu Qing's mind, and he immediately knew how to gain experience points from the Evil Ghost Mask.

“Wear it and you’ll get it.”

Xu Qingdao.

then.

Xu Qing put the evil ghost mask on his face.

In a blink of an eye.

One minute later.

[Experience +1]

"Wear it on your face for one minute and you'll get a little experience."

Xu Qing thought in his heart.

"Walk."

Xu Qing put on a gray cloak, wore an iron sword around his waist, used the snake movement technique, and rushed to the scene of the incident as quickly as possible.

"arrive."

Four minutes later.

Xu Qing came to the scene of the incident.

at this time.

[Evil Ghost Mask LV1: 5/5 (can be upgraded!)]

"upgrade."

Xu Qingdao.

Buzz!

A white light flashed on the evil ghost mask.

update completed.

Vaguely.

Xu Qing seemed to have witnessed the process of remaking the evil ghost mask.

[Evil Ghost Mask LV2: 0/10 (This is a mask made by a skilled craftsman with a lifetime of effort. It has the effect of hiding his face and covering his own breath, but it is easier to see through.)]

"oh."

Xu Qing's eyes flashed, and there was a hint of joy on his face, "I didn't expect that this evil ghost mask would have such an effect after being upgraded to one level. It's not bad."

"This suits me very well."

Roar! Roar! Roar! ! !

can be seen.

On the streets of Hongye Street, the surrounding houses were tightly closed, and only some brave people dared to watch secretly through the cracks in the doors.

Xu Qing saw a total of three ghouls. These three ghouls were all strengthened by eating fresh flesh and blood just like yesterday.

besides.

Behind these three corpse ghosts, there is another corpse monster covered with black hair.

It is the black-haired zombie.

Generally speaking.

When a corpse undergoes transformation, it is just a ghoul at first. After eating new flesh and blood, the ghoul can be strengthened. After eating enough blood and flesh, and absorbing enough Yin Qi and Corpse Qi, it can become a corpse. Advance to become a 'black-haired zombie'.

Black-haired zombies are not something ordinary Ming Jin warriors can deal with.

On the battlefield.

Yang Ye, Wang Changye, Qin Daniu, and ten other members. Among them, three members had died tragically on the spot, and the other seven members were more or less injured.

Yang Ye, Wang Changye, and Qin Daniu also looked pale.

"When will support arrive?"

Wang Changye shouted and asked.

"Hurry, it should be here soon."

Yang Ye replied.

"We're afraid we won't last long."

Qin Daniu said.

There are black-haired zombies plus three enhanced versions of corpses. On Yang Ye's side, there are only two Mingjin warriors, plus a dozen people, who are no match at all.

Fight till now.

Everyone was more or less injured, and three people died.

If this continues.

Yang Ye and the others are afraid that they will all be wiped out.

"What happened in the outer city?"

Xu Qing frowned, "This time, three enhanced corpse ghosts appeared, and there was also a black-haired zombie. Is the government unable to control it?"
