The long fairy road is wonderful

Chapter 237 Mines

The messy traces at the scene all showed the panic at that time. So many tools and daily sundries were scattered around, and the people who fled in a hurry didn't even look at them.

The carriage continued to move forward along the trail, and Mei Li was holding the reins with one hand, while the other hand was always holding the spare weapon at her waist, ready to deal with any crisis that might come at any time.

But the last part of the journey was quite safe. It was so quiet all the time, so quiet that one's hairs stood on end. The birds and insects that should have been in the woods were completely gone.

Until the distance was shortened to about 100 meters, the mule and horse pulling the cart refused to go any further. In fact, it was able to walk all the way thanks to Meili's comfort. After all, the instinct of animals is much sharper than that of humans. .

Since the carriage did not move forward, the two got out of the carriage.

Meili tied the reins to a tree trunk not far away. Due to the aura of undead creatures, the nearby monsters and beasts had already disappeared, and there was no need to worry that the horse would be eaten when they came out.

——If they can't get out, then don't worry about the horse problem...

After settling the carriage, Meili took up a small backpack containing supplies, and took the epee she had been carrying in her hand.

Although it is true that it is a two-handed weapon, it is not a two-handed sword.Its blade is very wide, shorter than a two-handed sword, and looks a bit stubby like a door panel.

The point of the sword is in the shape of a pickaxe, with two triangular points rising from the outer edge.

The official name of this thing is the heavy sword. In Mei Li's words, it is an 'alien weapon'. The characteristic of this type of weapon is that it is very difficult to use proficiently, and it takes a lot of time to get used to it.

But the power is also worth the time spent.

In addition to the broad and thick blade of the epee, the part of the sword tip that resembles a pickaxe has a more powerful armor-piercing effect. When dealing with heavily armored targets, it can break through thick armor plates like a chisel. The blade can also be used as a shield.

The only problem, or shortcoming, is that it is too heavy, and it cannot be played without enough strength.

This girl's physical strength is really terrifying, Lin Tianci thought that wearing her armor would be difficult for her to even walk, let alone wield such a heavy weapon to fight.

Obviously, the body under the armor is not the kind of muscular girl who can run a horse with fists, why does that slender body have so much strength...?
This made Lin Tianci a little confused, but it was not too important.

The two slowly approached the entrance of the mine in sight. It was a double door sealed with thick wooden boards. The shape and craftsmanship were not to mention exquisite, but the emphasis was on being strong and durable.

And as the distance got closer, Lin Tianci could also clearly feel that the concentration of ghost air around him was gradually increasing, and soon broke through the standard value of the normal range.

Mei Li held the hilt of the sword in one hand, looked up and down the sealed mine, and planned to pull the chain and lock that locked the mine with the other hand.

Lin Tianci hurriedly stopped her:
"The concentration of ghost gas behind here is very high, and I feel some slight movement behind the door, beware of sudden attacks."

"Ghost energy? Oh, you mean negative energy levels."

Ghost Qi is called in Eastern China, and it is called negative energy in other places. Basically, the same thing is called Reiki in Eastern China, and it is called Magic Power in other places.

Mei Li is a fighter through and through. She likes magic, but Naihe has no talent in this area at all, and she can't feel any strange powers. It was getting colder and colder, as if someone was blowing on the back of the neck, a chilling feeling.

However, she knows what it means to follow the example of kindness, and leave things that she doesn't understand to experts.

And monks deal with ghosts...

What an expert.

Clutching the hilt of the sword with both hands, Meili nodded towards Lin Tianci, and then gave a low shout, the small door-like epee cut off the chains that locked the mine gate neatly without any resistance.

At that moment, the unbound door slammed open, and four whimpering dead bodies pushed and squeezed out from behind the door.

Their skin is shriveled, their movements are limping, and the lenses in their eyes have been completely solidified. If you look closely, you will find that their pupils are burning with blue undead fire.

Judging from the clothes on their bodies, these zombies should be miners who couldn't get out of the mine in time.

When everything happened, the gang in charge of the mine closed the mine as quickly as possible. Although in a sense it prevented the undead creatures inside from running out to make trouble, it also made it impossible for some survivors to escape. The four The miners should be the unlucky ones who managed to escape to the door, only to find that the door had been closed.

Mei Li took two steps back holding the epee, and with the relatively slow moving speed of the zombies, there was no need to worry that they would reach people in the next moment.

"Lin Tianci, can you show me the methods of your monks?"

She pointed at the four attacking zombies with the tip of her sword and asked.

This move is roughly equivalent to inspecting the goods. After all, no matter how nice the words are, you are just a keyboard man without real skills. After all, the church also spends money to hire people, and the money cannot be wasted.

Besides, if Lin Tianci is really the kind of guy who can only talk about it, it is impossible for Meili to take him down the mine, it would be too dangerous, no matter it is the same for anyone.

Lin Tianci knew what she was thinking. As a migrant worker in his previous life, Brother Lin was not incomprehensible to this kind of "inspection" mentality, which was equivalent to the internship period after joining the company.

"No problem, leave it to me."

After replying, Lin Tianci exerted strength with his feet.

Meili only felt a gust of wind flying by her side, and when she looked again, Lin Tianci had already rushed to the side of the flailing zombie.

Although Brother Lin said that he has a certain melee ability, and Mei Li has tested it herself, the concept of "all those who can move between planes are mages" in her mind is too deep. Seeing Lin Tianci rushing over There was a very strong sense of disobedience in an instant.

However, Lin Tianci is a monk after all, not a magician who has no power to restrain a chicken. He stopped suddenly, just in front of the zombie's chest.

Of course, the latter will not let go of the meat delivered to the door. Zombies are dead things without any self-awareness. They only act with hatred for all living beings, so when Lin Tianci appeared in front of him, the zombies reacted like a conditioned reflex. tried to grab him with both hands.

Regardless of the East or the West, zombies are characterized by great strength and slow movements.And what Lin Tianci is best at is speed and flexibility.

The zombie's hands suddenly grabbed the air, and its brain that had already started to rot must not be able to understand the reason. Mei Li, who was behind, clearly saw Lin Tianci's extremely fast movements, almost like a phantom in the four zombies. Shuttle between, it seemed that after only two breaths, Lin Tianci returned to his original position, as if he hadn't moved at all.

"You just... attacked them?"

Mei Li was a little uncertain, because she only saw Lin Tianci shuttle between the four zombies for a while, and the only action that could be considered as an attack was to pat them lightly on the waist or back with his hand.

That slapping movement was as slight as slapping dust, and if this was considered an attack, it would be too much.

She didn't know that Lin Tianci's movements were light because those zombies were too disgusting, he didn't want to touch them directly with his hands, he just picked a clean place when he patted them lightly.

Of course, a light pat was indeed not an attack, and the zombies still limped towards the two of them with a whining sound in their mouths.

At this time, Brother Lin snapped his fingers, and the zombie's movements visibly paused.The next moment, the places on their bodies that were photographed by Lin Tianci lit up with aura.

Mei Li took a closer look and found that there was a piece of yellow paper pasted on the place where the spiritual light was shining, and there were still unknown lines and words made of red paint on it.

——She doesn't know the talismans.

Almost at the same time as the aura lit up, the four zombies fell to the ground, and the faces distorted by the negative energy also returned to their original appearance, even with a relieved smile on their faces.

Meili stepped forward, poked the corpse twice with the tip of her sword, and confirmed that they would not get up again. She was a little surprised and said:

"Have you purified them all?"

"Purification? Well, this is the effect of the talisman, which can dispel ghost energy, which is what you call negative energy."

Lin Tianci unfolded the talisman in his hand like a folding fan and showed it to Meili, expressing that he still had a lot of it.

In order to deal with the ghost who kidnapped the purple-haired fox, Lin Tianci, with the mentality of being careful and making no big mistakes, made a lot of talismans of rebirth and talismans of celestial master's suppression of ghosts.

Meili took a piece of the past life talisman and looked it up and down. She really couldn't figure out that some patterns painted on yellow paper with red paint could have such a magical effect.

But as long as knowing the existence of Lin Tianci can greatly increase her chances of completing this task.

The mine has been closed for a long time. It took at least three months from the time the church got the news until Meili arrived. The air in the mine was naturally not good.

Moreover, the torches, kerosene lamps and other things originally used for lighting have long been unable to emit light because of the exhaustion of fuel. As long as they enter the mine less than ten meters away, it will become dark.

Lin Tianci took out the lighting wand he bought before again, and a magic light ball quietly suspended ten centimeters above his head to provide illumination.

"Aren't your monk's talismans used for lighting?"

Mei Li was a little strange about this, because Lin Tianci had been emphasizing that monks and magicians were different, but in the end he took out a lighting wand.

"Yes, yes..."

The lighting effect of the talisman of light is better than that of the light spell in magic. Not to mention the softer light, it can illuminate a larger area.

But there is a problem. The ball of light formed after the Talisman of Light is activated is 'sticky' and must be stuck to an object before it can be used, instead of floating above the head like the Talisman of Light.

Generally speaking, Lin Tianci would find a wooden stick or stick it on the scabbard as a torch to hold it, but the correct way to use this thing is to stick it on the top of his head, just like bringing his own headlight.

——But the image is really ugly...
