Shushan: Extinction

Chapter 17

When Chief Qin opened his mouth and pounced on Manager Hu again, the latter struggled frantically out of his survival instinct, pulled out his dagger and stabbed Chief Qin five or six times.

But at this moment, Chief Qin was like a bloodthirsty beast. The pain and injuries seemed to have no effect on him. He bit Manager Hu's neck again and then sucked hard!

After just a few seconds, the unfortunate Manager Hu's eyes turned white, his body twitched violently, and then his feet kicked away and he became completely stiff.

Then, Chief Qin threw Manager Hu's body away and began to look around with his red, bloodthirsty eyes.

Suddenly, his nostrils twitched and a heavy gasp came from his throat. He then looked to the side and immediately strode forward towards an ice mound.

Immediately, one could see a frightened figure jumping out from behind the ice mound. The figure looked quite slim and it was none other than Zhao Zi!
It turned out that after Qin Shanzhang brought his men here, they immediately took control of the situation. Zhao Zi and Zhou Zhizhong were completely controlled in terms of both strength and power. The two were already running away in a panic like stray dogs, so they could not even ask for a share of the spoils, and could only be driven away in disgrace.

Zhao Zi was a bold and ruthless woman. She knew that the more dangerous a place was, the greater the opportunities would be. So, like Gong Tianwu, she chose to follow and watch the battle from a distance.

However, what she thought about most was how to help save Chief Qin Shan and make him owe her a favor. Unlike that bastard Gong Tianwu, who was only obsessed with touching corpses, she could only sincerely thank nature for the gift.

Zhao Zi, who was being stared at by Chief Qin at this time, was of course shocked and angry. She asked herself how she could be found by Chief Qin even though she had hidden herself so well and even held her breath?

Seeing that he couldn't get rid of the mad Chief Qin Shan at all, Zhao Zi didn't want to end up being sucked dry of blood and die.

As her mind flashed, her eyes turned cold, and she flew to the side. Of course, Chief Qin chased her. As a result, when she passed a piece of ice rock next to her, she suddenly attacked!

Zhao Zi grabbed a man from behind the ice rock, then pointed him at Chief Qin Shan behind him and pushed him hard.

The person caught by Zhao Zi was none other than Gong Tianwu.

He had heart paralysis, so he had to rest after running for a while. So when he saw Manager Hu carrying Qin Shan on his back and running for a long distance, he couldn't catch up in time, so he could only rush in this direction.

Gong Tianwu had never expected that not long after he arrived here, when he was still secretly thanking himself for not being too late, he was actually tricked by Zhao Zi, this bitch! !

At this life-and-death moment, Gong Tianwu simply took out a fist-sized cloth bag from his trouser pocket, and then threw it at Qin Shanchang, who was bloody and grinning in front of him.

The mouth of the cloth bag was not tied tightly, so after it was thrown up, a yellow mist enveloped Qin Shanchang's head and face. The key point was that Qin Shanchang seemed to dislike this yellow mist. He staggered back a few steps and waved his hands repeatedly!

Seizing this opportunity, Gong Tianwu decisively dodged and ran away, then congratulated himself in his heart that his judgment was correct:
It looked like Principal Qin Shan had already begun to turn into a corpse, so the cloaking powder was indeed useful - just as if a person's face was suddenly covered with feces, the first reaction would definitely be to wipe his face with his hands.

Of course, Zhao Zi didn't know that Gong Tianwu had such a way to save her life. At this moment, she was like a frightened bird. The only thought in her mind was to run away quickly, while she kept looking back to see if the monster was chasing her.

After all, this woman is only in her twenties. In fact, she has been able to remain calm before, which has actually surpassed 99% of her peers. It is remarkable that she only showed panic now.

But when it rains, it pours. The ship was late and encountered headwinds! The consequence of Zhao Zi's frequent looking back was that she actually ignored the danger ahead. An ice corpse was attracted by her hurried footsteps, suddenly broke through the ice, grabbed her left foot and was about to drag it into the water.

At this critical moment, Zhao Zi let out a shrill scream, suddenly raised her hand and pulled the trigger of the hidden arrow.

Suddenly, a sleeve arrow pierced the ice corpse's forehead. The ice corpse raised its left hand and slapped it without any hesitation. Zhao Zi's raised right arm was immediately fiercely opened, and the sound of the sleeve arrow mechanism breaking came from inside.

Zhao Zi groaned in pain, and then saw that the sleeve arrow nailed on the ice corpse's forehead became hot and red, and then exploded with a loud bang, and smoke spread!
A few seconds later, the smoke slowly dissipated, and the head of the ice corpse had evaporated, leaving only the headless torso standing there. After a few seconds, it fell to the ground, twitching constantly, but its right hand still tightly grasped Zhao Zi's ankle.

Zhao Zi calmed down at this time and suddenly felt a pain in his flesh.

You know, in order to exchange for this sleeve arrow, Zhao Zi even used her own marriage as a bargaining chip, and let the man send it as a betrothal gift!

The most special thing about this sleeve arrow is that its shaft is wrapped with a talisman written in cinnabar, which makes it go beyond the category of ordinary weapons and can be classified as a Taoist weapon.

Not only that, the magic sleeve quiver on Zhao Zi's hand was also a fine product from Zhongjing. It cost him the price of ten acres of land to buy it, and it was also directly destroyed.

Although the ice corpse's head had been blown off, its right hand was still as strong as an iron clamp. Zhao Zi even cut off three of its fingers before he got rid of its grip. After standing up, he felt that his left foot was all black and it hurt so much that he moved it.

However, at this time, Zhao Zi could only grit his teeth and limp forward. As a result, he had just walked more than a hundred meters and looked back. He was immediately frightened to find that Qin Shanchang, with blood all over his face, was chasing him again!
There is no doubt that Zhao Zi has burst out with great potential under the pressure of death at this moment. She gritted her teeth and ran forward desperately. She could also feel that Qin Shanchang's movement speed had obviously decreased.

After all, Chang Qin is still a human being, but he is in a state where the corpse poison is attacking his brain, which means that his mind has been completely eroded by the side effects and desires brought by the corpse poison. If someone can help him expel the corpse poison at this time, then Chang Qin can still survive.

Seeing that he was about to be caught up, Zhao Zi took a deep breath, chose an ice hill and started playing "King Qin Circling the Pillar" with Chief Qin Shan.

She now calculated very clearly that there were seven or eight wounds of varying sizes on Qin Shanchang's body, all of which were bleeding. How much blood could one person bleed? So time was on her side!
Facts proved that Zhao Zi's judgment was not wrong. After only a cup of tea, it could be seen that Chief Qin's movements had obviously slowed down a lot, and even his steps staggered - dawn was just around the corner!

But at this moment, a figure suddenly rushed out from the side and hit Zhao Zi hard!
The two of them instantly turned into rolling gourds and fell to the ground in a very embarrassing manner.

The person who rushed out was none other than Gong Tianwu!

Zhao Zi let out a shrill scream immediately after she fell down, because the bastard Gong Tianwu was actually going for her injured leg. After rushing out, he grabbed Zhao Zi's left ankle with both hands and twisted it violently, then put all his body weight on it.

Suddenly, even Gong Tianwu heard a clear and creepy "click" sound!

Zhao Zi was in so much pain that tears streamed down her face. Her sphincter twitched so much that she almost peed. She instinctively kicked out with all her strength with her left leg and hit Gong Tianwu in the chest!

Gong Tianwu was feeling proud when he was hit hard, but his eyes went dark all of a sudden. He rolled over seventeen or eighteen times and hit the ice next to him heavily.

Both sides suffer losses!!!

Almost half a minute passed before Gong Tianwu recovered. He found breathing very difficult and could only take deep breaths.

Only then did he realize that Zhao Zi, with a broken leg, had already crawled about ten meters away, gritting his teeth. The look in his eyes was vicious but also mixed with a hint of excitement!
As soon as Gong Tianwu turned around, he understood what Zhao Zi meant. It turned out that Chief Qin Shan was already three meters behind him. This guy was limping as he walked. A lot of blood was pouring out of his trouser legs. His face was still bloody and hideous, his eyes were rolled back, and he seemed to be chewing something in his mouth.

Obviously, in Zhao Zi's mind, Gong Tianwu would be pounced on and eaten alive by Qin Shanchang, sucking his blood to death, and she could take the opportunity to escape.

This is undoubtedly a replica of encountering a bear in the forest, where you just need to run faster than your companions!!
However, Gong Tianwu was very calm at this time. He raised his finger and shook it at Zhao Zi, with a sarcastic smile on his face.

Zhao Zi was stunned, and then her eyes suddenly widened, because after Qin Shanchang came near Gong Tianwu, his nose twitched a few times, and he actually bypassed this bastard and limped towards her.

"How is this possible? What is going on??!!"

Zhao Zi suddenly trembled all over, and then began to drag his left leg and crawl away, but his speed was definitely far slower than Qin Shanchang's.

In desperation, Zhao Zi looked around and found a crack in the ice next to her, so she gritted her teeth and crawled in. However, the length of the crack was only more than one meter, barely enough to accommodate her.

After Qin Shanchang rushed up, he made a "ho ho" sound from his mouth, his eyes rolled back, and he started trying to attack Zhao Zi directly. When he found that he couldn't reach her, he started to attack the surrounding ice wall.

The ice wall was not very thick, and after being hit several times in a row, it made a "cracking" sound and cracks appeared.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Zi was so frightened that her soul flew away, and she screamed hurriedly:
"Tian Dachun, now that you have saved me, I will give you one hundred acres of land and one thousand silver treasures!!"

Gong Tianwu sneered:

"You should give up."

Zhao Zi gritted her teeth and said:

"Okay, it's fine if you don't want to save me, but tell me why Shanzhang Qin doesn't eat you, so that I can understand the truth. Otherwise, I will become a ghost and haunt you even after I die!"

Gong Tianwu smiled complacently and said:

"That's because I've sprinkled corpse-repelling powder on my body, and you smell of blood! So as long as we're present at the same time, in the zombies' perception, you're like a fragrant roast chicken, while I'm a steamed bun covered in shit. Who else should I chase if not you?"

"Hahaha, do you think I'm betting my life with you? Actually, I'm sorry, I cheated! Hahahaha!"

Zhao Zi said angrily:

"Impossible! How could I smell like blood? I don't have any bleeding wounds on my body."

Gong Tianwu said sarcastically:
"Really? You've been particularly irritable these past few days, and the cup smells like a mixture of brown sugar and ginger. Sometimes, you can smell blood without getting hurt!"

Zhao Zi's whole body suddenly froze. She had never expected that this seemingly nonchalant, shameless and despicable rogue in front of her would actually notice such details!

Looking at Zhao Zi's appearance, Gong Tianwu laughed wantonly. Seeing this arrogant and shrewd woman in front of him being humiliated was undoubtedly an extremely wanton and enjoyable thing for him.

But at this moment, Zhao Zi's sharp and sarcastic voice also came:

"Is the wine in my house good these days? Is the braised fat good too?"

Gong Tianwu suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart, and said in a deep voice:

"You... you poisoned the wine?"

Zhao Zi said sarcastically:

"Is a scum like you worth the lives of several servants for me to poison you?"

"Go read some medical books yourself. Anyone with heart problems should be pure-hearted and abstain from sex with women, fatty foods, alcohol, and all hot and spicy foods! Have you recently felt that everything you do is very difficult, and you are having chest tightness and shortness of breath?"

"Look at your lips, they're as black as the bottom of a pot. You're not far from death, you bastard. Ahh ...

The moment he was bitten, Zhao Zi felt severe pain and the pungent smell of blood from Qin Shanchang's body.

She struggled desperately, but it was of no use. Gradually the pain in her neck disappeared, but her strength also disappeared with it. It seemed that the whole world was spinning and moving away, and her hands, feet and body were twitching unconsciously.

The only thing Zhao Zi could do was to open his mouth wide, breathe hard, and then face his own death.

But at this moment, she suddenly felt that Qin Shanchang's whole body shook violently, his distorted face returned to normal, and his eyes gradually became clear.

Zhao Zi tried her best to turn her head to look behind her, and saw Gong Tianwu standing behind her with an expressionless face, slowly raising the long sword in his hand again.

It can be seen that the long sword is very sharp and must be expensive. It should have been taken by Gong Tianwu from the body of a dead coach.

The blade of the long sword was already stained with blood!

It was obvious that Gong Tianwu had already attacked Qin Shanchang from behind.

This was a move that had to be made. Gong Tianwu knew very well in his heart that once Zhao Zi died completely, Chief Qin would definitely be his next target.

Shit-smelling chocolate is still chocolate after all.

So this was also an extremely fatal blow. Under the pressure of death, Qin Shanchang entered a state of last breath, and the huge power he burst out suppressed the corpse poison that invaded his brain.

Qin Shanchang turned back with difficulty, his lips stammering:

"You can't kill me. I am"

Gong Tianwu groaned, dark red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and he swung his sword down fiercely again!

The hard practice of 500 swords every day these days has formed a solid muscle memory. The sword swung by Gong Tianwu chopped off Qin Shanchang's head with lightning speed.

Not only that, the tip of the long sword still had some force left, and it even cut a deep bloody line on Zhao Zi's fair neck! !

Zhao Zi's eyes gradually dimmed, and then his head tilted to the side. The blood line quickly turned into a terrible crack as his neck slid.

One knife kills two people!!!

Gong Tianwu was gasping for breath, and he felt his vision go dark. His heart was beating as if it was going to jump out of his throat. For a moment, he even had difficulty standing.

But at this moment, his eyes suddenly widened, because the font suddenly appeared on his retina:

"You killed Qin Heng (named Youzhi). He was transferred to Tianmai Mansion at the age of 28 and became the leader of the Shen Ce Guard at the age of 34. He played a major role in the succession struggle of Lelang State. After Qin Heng died at your hands, the next ruler of Lelang State will most likely change."

"Your karma points increase by 8!"

"You killed Zhao Zi (Qingfeng Sanren). This woman had a fortuitous encounter when she was 25 years old. She helped the Cangjiang Water God escape a disaster. As a result, she was able to obtain a copy of the Water Cloud Art and successfully enter the world of cultivation. However, due to her limited qualifications, she was ultimately unable to establish her foundation."

"After she dies in your hands ahead of time, the power of the Cangjiang Water God will be reduced by at least 30%. Therefore, it is very likely that 3,400 refugees will be spared from the Cangjiang flood in 17 years."

"Your karma points increase by 3."

"Your karma points are currently 13/22."

Suddenly, Gong Tianwu felt something in his trouser pocket getting hot. He took it out and saw that it was the Diabolo Monk Bell Seal that he had searched from Qian Fei. Then it slowly turned into powder in his hand.

The prompt appears again:

"You successfully decomposed a Tianhuang stone seal containing the essence of heaven and earth, and obtained a Zhenlong point."

Then, Gong Tianwu looked at the pearl hanging on Qin Shan's long neck. It was actually shining slightly at this moment, giving people a flickering and elusive feeling.

When he first saw this pearl, Gong Tianwu had a unique impression of it. Now that he had the chance to get it, of course he would not let it go. He grabbed it and intended to pull it off.

As a result, after his finger touched the pearl, a prompt appeared in front of Gong Tianwu's eyes again:

"Pearls are intertwined with jade, and corals are intertwined with wood."

"This thing that looks like a pearl is actually an eye. Before it was crudely refined, it grew on the body of a beautiful python that was over 200 years old."

"Because you are still very weak now, absorbing it can increase your Zhenlong points."

Faced with such a prompt, Gong Tianwu was stunned and couldn't help asking:

"I am still very weak now? Well, what if I become stronger in the future?"

The reply came quickly:

“It has no effect.”

After reading the reply, Gong Tianwu realized that he felt a strange sensation on his fingers. He looked down and found that the pearl he was holding had quietly dissolved and turned into a pool of light blue liquid, which was quickly absorbed into his body.

Immediately afterwards, Gong Tianwu felt dizzy, weak all over, and his heart was beating wildly!
So he could only hold his chest in pain, slowly sit down on the ground, and at the same time take out a black pill from his arms and put it under his tongue.

Suddenly, Gong Tianwu's mouth was filled with a bitter and spicy taste, and a large amount of saliva was secreted and swallowed, and there seemed to be a burning sensation spreading down in the throat.

When this burning feeling reached my chest, the pain as if my heart was about to jump out of my chest was immediately relieved.

This is a tiger and wolf medicine made from herbal medicine. It was very effective when taken when the disease recurred before. But now, although the effect is still there, the heartbeat speed only slows down for a while, and then speeds up again.

It felt like a few violent horses were dragging an out-of-control carriage towards the cliff ahead!

"Oh my god." Gong Tianwu covered his chest and cursed in pain. A lot of black blood began to ooze out of the corners of his mouth. His chest heaved like a broken bellows, and then it seemed as if something tight suddenly broke.

Gong Tianwu's whole body trembled, and a sense of relief instantly spread throughout his body, but he also collapsed limply.

And in the next second, he found that his Zhenlong points had become 6 points. Not only that, he also gained enlightenment, and his soul lifespan increased by an extra two years!
At the same time, the fonts are visible again on Retina:

"Converting the Eye of the Beauty Python into Zhenlong requires a lot of physical strength. I'm sorry that I didn't take your current health condition into consideration."

"However, the identity of Qin Heng, whom you killed, is very important. Even if you can continue to live, there is a high probability that you will die before the sunset today, and there is a small probability that you can survive until the sunrise tomorrow."

"Of course, you are also lucky. Before you completely rotted away in this world, you realized the true meaning of your life and officially gained my recognition."

"The personal attribute column is officially opened!"

"The talent system is officially open!"

"The passive bonus of the divine object is activated."

"Passive ability of the divine item: Soul Healing, which increases the healing effect of the soul-bound object by 15% (if it can be increased), and increases the recovery speed of injuries by 20%."

"Passive ability of the divine item: Passive ability of the divine item: Resurrection. At the cost of consuming causal points + soul life, the object bound by the soul can ignore the mystery of the womb and continue to reincarnate, resurrect, etc."

"Passive ability of the divine object: Talented. When the bound object learns any technique or skill, the training speed will be increased by 10%."

"So, say goodbye to your current life and prepare to start your fourth life!!"

After reading this information, Gong Tianwu began to feel that his whole body was becoming light, the pain quickly disappeared, and his perception of the outside world began to become blurred.

At the same time, some corresponding images and instructions appeared on the retina:
"Your actions changed Tian Yun's fate: she would have been driven out of her home and frozen to death in a snowstorm three years later."

"Zhou Zhizhong's death caused his father Zhou Lu to be extremely sad. He died of illness one month later. The new head of the village had a grudge against Zhang's (Tian Yun) in-laws and forced the Zhang family to serve the Xianmen corvee. In the end, the family was broken up and everyone died."

"When Tian Yun took his children to the county town to seek help, his son was noticed by a group training instructor who practiced Tongbiquan. The instructor thought that his hands were longer than his knees and that he was gifted, so he accepted him as his last disciple. As a result, Tian Yun had no worries about food and clothing and died peacefully."

"Your actions changed the fate of Luo Jiang (Master Luo): Luo Jiang would have been promoted to the head of the mountain, but died of plague twenty-one years later."

"Qin Heng's death caused his master to be furious. He just wanted to teach his disciple a lesson and let him suffer a little setback, so he personally came to investigate the matter. Luo Jiang was affected and suppressed, and then many of his evil deeds were exposed. He was beheaded the following year."

"Your actions changed Xie Qing's fate: he would have been marginalized by Luo Jiang, and then angrily went to the capital to look for opportunities. As a result, he contracted dysentery during the journey and fell into the toilet and died."

"But as Luo Jiang was suppressed, Xie Qing became even more powerful in martial arts. Three years later, he was hanged on the city gate after being found out for his ambition and corruption."

When he saw this, Gong Tianwu finally couldn't hold on and fainted.
