After the immortal disappeared

The window was not closed deliberately, allowing the evening breeze to blow in, but the smoke lingered above the tribute candle, gathering and getting thicker.

Just a dozen breaths later, the thick smoke gathered into a gray shadow.

If you look closely, you will see that the shape of the shadow looks like the wood carving on the table, but it only has seven or eight faces. The face in the middle even rolled its eyes and stared at the child soul below.

Although the child soul is ignorant, he instinctively knows that something is wrong, so he gives up the incense and wants to get back into the wooden ball.

Yan Ying pounced on it and swallowed it in one gulp.

Such a small and weak remnant soul is not even an appetizer to it, but instead arouses its appetite.

Its mouth opens and closes as if it is saying something to the caster. The curse master prostrated on the ground and said respectfully: "The mark has been made, please go and enjoy the rich sacrifice!"

Upon hearing this, the smoke shadow circled half a circle in the room and disappeared into the air in the next second.

The caster stood up and took a look, and saw that the number of faces on the wooden sculpture had been reduced by seven or eight accordingly.

…

He Lingchuan always slept well. Even if he didn't enter Panlong City, he could still have a sweet night.

This ability to lie down and sleep anytime and anywhere makes Master Shi Er envious.

In the northern part of Panlong Wasteland, several conflicts broke out one after another, large and small.

The coalition forces of Baling and Xianyou continued to test the border.

This is the sequelae of Panlong's army flying to seize Xixiang Kingdom.

As a result, the Broken Knife team was transferred to the northern battlefield and fought six battles in more than thirty days.

Two of them were extremely intense, with both sides becoming red-blooded and almost escalating from a local conflict to a full-scale war.

These two battles were particularly difficult. In one of them, there were fewer enemies and more enemies. The 300 strong wind troops relied on the terrain to hold off 2,000 opponents for two days and one night.

The entire Broken Knife team narrowly escaped death several times.

Relying on his immortality, He Lingchuan fought without regard for himself, suffered numerous losses, and served as a shield for each of Liu Tiao and A Luo.

Even so, the two new team members failed to stay and unfortunately died in the battle.

On the last day of the day, even He Lingchuan couldn't make it through. After vomiting the last mouthful of residual blood, he was forced to go offline.

Fortunately, he finally received good news the next time he fell asleep. Reinforcements arrived right after his death, and they attacked from inside and outside to repel the enemy.

When he fell down without breathing, Willow thought he was dead. It is said that this female warrior, who is tougher than men, burst into tears on the spot.

Of course, this is just a rumor, and Liu Tiao himself does not admit it at all, and will beat anyone who says so.

After several battles, He Lingchuan even got the nickname "Crazy Sword".

Not getting any benefits on the border, the Xianba coalition retreated angrily.

This was in line with He Lingchuan's prediction. The other party did not intend to invade on a large scale. They just wanted to force the red generals from the Eastern Expedition back to Panlong City, and take advantage of the lack of defense in Panlong Wasteland to seize some territory.

They only achieved the first goal and paid a lot of price.

Panlongcheng also withdrew its troops from the border and returned to the city to reward them based on their merits.

The Broken Blade team led by He Lingchuan was loyal, brave, agile and highly qualified. They killed the largest number of enemies and killed the enemy leader with the highest level. They contributed a lot to the victory of the northwest wing. Taking into account Xiqiao's military exploits, everyone received a generous reward.

As for He Lingchuan himself, he was promoted to brigade commander by two ranks, with a command of hundreds of people.

As his deputy, Wicker Door Panel began to assemble this hundred-man team after returning to the city.

After several battles, He Lingchuan benefited a lot.

The battlefield is indeed the most testing place. It is full of endless surprises and variables. One second you are killing everyone, and the next second you may be shot into pieces.

He walked out of the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood, walked out of the millstone of flesh and blood, learned to see all directions and listen to all directions, learned to judge the situation and preserve his strength, learned that the brave will win when encountering a narrow road, and also learned to remain clear-eyed at the critical moment of life and death.

Rookies who have just entered the battlefield may be frightened to the point of fighting, but after fighting for too long, they can easily get carried away by murderous intent and blood, forgetting that there is often only a thin line between bravery and recklessness, astuteness and cowardice.

That is the line between life and death.

The more crisis you face, the more you need to be calm and restrained. This is not a human talent, but the result of countless death tests.

After careful review and consolidation afterwards, He Lingchuan had a clear feeling:

My state of mind and sword skills have improved again.

Knife skills are becoming more and more practical.

My mood became calmer and calmer.

This kind of precious trial on the battlefield can only be provided by Panlonghunxiang for the time being. Dafanghu was also merciless towards He Lingchuan. While he was working hard to solve cases and mediate between all parties during the day, he also forced him into a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood at night, constantly tormenting him.

If he hadn't been determined, he might have suffered a nervous breakdown.

Well, after receiving such inhuman treatment, his soul seemed to become stronger.

In any case, Panlong Wasteland temporarily returned to calm after these bouts of turmoil.

At this moment, He Lingchuan is in the northwest of Chipa Plateau, capturing a strange creature for Alo——

Monkey bat.

According to Aluo, this is an invasive alien species that is omnivorous, but it is likely to carry barnyard tumor seeds that are harmful to plateau wheat. Once it falls to the ground, it will burrow into the soil and parasitize on the roots of the wheat to absorb nutrients. After the wheat withers, it will Grow and thrive.

The initial growth of this kind of thing is very hidden and difficult to detect and control.

Panlong City's Dan Bureau also shoulders part of the task of crop control, and is particularly vigilant against various invasive organisms.

Aluo also issued related tasks to the Pengcheng Department, but the soldiers seem to be very busy recently, and no one has taken up this task. So he simply came to He Lingchuan for help.

"Anyway, you are idle when you are idle."

These are Arlo's exact words.

So He Lingchuan came.

The monkey bat is very big, as big as a teal, but it has a sharp beak and bulging cheeks, and its face does look like a monkey.

Most bats move in groups, but monkey bats only work as a couple and cannot bring a bunch of cubs, so their whereabouts are relatively hidden and difficult to track.

He Lingchuan spent a whole day searching based on the clues provided by A Luo, and finally found the feces of monkey bats on the stalactite pillars of a cave.

We still have to go in. He looked at the dark pool in front of him and sighed. Was he blinded by lard? Why did he come to this invisible water even if he left his beautiful neighbor alone? Catching bats for Arlo in the cave?

Of course there was water in the cave, and it was living water, because he could feel the strong wind blowing against his face when he entered the cave.

In midsummer, the temperature here is only 11 to 12 degrees, and you will still sneeze if you stay there for a long time.

The still water is deep and only the shallows make a splash.

When He Lingchuan entered the cave, he could barely hear the sound of running water, so he knew that the water here was very deep.

He had no choice but to grab a pair of water cushions and put them on his body and jump into the pool.

Monkey Bat can fly in, he can only swim in.

There are many thieves on the fork in the road here, there are many thieves in the caves, and there are often unknown creatures in the water.

He Lingchuan swam for more than a quarter of an hour, relying on the illumination of fluorescent grass, and finally spotted the monkey bat on the top of the rock!

"This damn thing!" Catch it as soon as possible and go back to deliver the goods as soon as possible.

He Lingchuan didn't have eyes on the back of his head, so he wouldn't have noticed that there was a sudden flash of blue light in the depths of the pool behind him.

The monkey bat was hanging upside down on the rock wall directly above him. The whole family of seven was here. They were probably all full and sleeping with their heads covered.

How to catch this thing?

Of course, He Lingchuan had already thought about it before he came in. He grabbed two pairs of crypt spider webs from his body and tiptoed up the stalactites to tie them.

In Panlong City in this time and space, General Hong and Zhu Erniang re-revised the agreement. The Cave Spider will hand over the exclusive agency rights of its products to Panlong City.

In this way, Panlong City has one more competitive product for export, and the cave spiders don't have to worry about dealing with human profiteers.

Since then, among the equipment distributed by Panlong City’s warriors, as well as in the selection columns that can be exchanged and traded, there have been more special products made of crypt spider silk, such as nets, flying ropes and soft spider silk armor, and Well received.

He Lingchuan replaced his original rope net with a spider web because it was lighter, stronger and more durable.

These two nets surround the cave in the direction of exit, forming an "L" shape.

After laying it out, He Lingchuan grabbed a few stones and hit them in front of the monkey bat, making a few "dong dong dong" sounds.

The monkey bat woke up at the sound, spread its wings and began to fly away.

Of course, He Lingchuan also picked the right direction and drove them towards the net.

The spider web still retains the properties of spider silk. When the prey pounces on it, the more it struggles, the deeper it sinks.

According to Arlo's request, the more monkey bats are captured, the better.

After He Lingchuan threatened like this, four bats hit the net before and after him, and several others went in various directions.

He jumped over and caught them all.

When you're done, you can go out and do business.

At this moment, a dark wind suddenly rose from behind, and He Lingchuan felt a chill behind him.

Warning sign.

Without thinking, he took a step forward two feet, stopped on another stalactite, and then turned back.

When I saw this, I was surprised:

Where he was standing before, there was a man in ragged clothes.

It's a bit reluctant to call him a human being, because not only does he have sound limbs, but he even has several heads, some male and female, old and young, with a distorted face and more than a dozen eyes staring at He Lingchuan at the same time.

That look, probably... greedy?

Only a pack of wolves that had been hungry for seven days and seven nights would have such green eyes.

What the hell is this?

"Tribute!" the head on the monster's neck shouted, "come and feed me!"

He Lingchuan frowned, who was it calling tribute?

He raised his wrist and gave the opponent a sleeve arrow first: "Eat this."

"Eat! Eat! Eat!" This person didn't even hide, only a baby's head moved from his belly to his heart. The sleeve arrow would have passed through the heart, but when it opened its mouth, the arrow penetrated into the mouth.

The mouth seemed to be a bottomless pit, and the arrows did not cause any damage.

"It doesn't taste good!" Baby Face said angrily, "I want to eat meat!"

The head on his shoulder turned and he saw bats flying around. Suddenly he opened his mouth and spat out hundreds of bats towards He Lingchuan!

These bats are two sizes smaller than monkey bats, but they have human heads, green eyes, mouths full of sharp teeth, and front paws that look like human hands.

This cave is not big to begin with, but if hundreds of bats are squeezed in, the sound of flapping wings and piercing screams can be heard everywhere.
