The Big Puzzle
"Haha, Xiao Yi, do you know how many vermins are in my body? There are 4,000 of them. I am a vermin, and the vermins are me. As long as one vermin is not killed, I can survive. Haha, do you know where this sewage pipe leads to? It leads to the sea. Haha, do you know what's in the sea? There are countless fish and shrimp. When the time comes, it will be the Zombie Curse all over the sea. Haha, then, the people of Hai City will be the only ones to die with me. Hahaha!" Xiao Pengbo laughed wildly as if he had nothing to fear.
Hearing this, Chen Yong's and Luo Yuechan's faces instantly changed.
Unexpectedly, there was such a monster in the world. As he said, it was not difficult to kill him. However, as long as there was a vermin missing, there would be endless troubles in the future.
The sewage pipe led directly to the sea. If the vermin were to flow into the sea, it would be an irreparable disaster.
It really couldn't kill him and couldn't let him go. What should they do?
"Hahaha, what's wrong? Are you having a hard time? Then you should think about it carefully. I won't keep you company. However, please go back and inform all your parties to arrest me. When you kill me, you must be careful, ah hahaha!" Xiao Pengbo laughed arrogantly. He slowly moved his body and walked towards the lower side of the pipe path.
"Mr. Xiao, what should we do? Are we going to watch him leave and harm others again?" Luo Yuechan asked urgently.
Chen Yong also punched the pipe wall with hatred. He didn't expect that the monster was right in front of him, but he was caught in such a dilemma.
Just as Xiao Pengbo's body was about to turn around the corner and fly away, his body was already on the verge of death.
But with a thought, Xiao Yi communicated with the flying sword in the Fire Dragon Cauldron.
That flying sword was already completely fused together in the Tai formation, perfectly fusing both the Golden Essence and Snow Crystal together. Only then did it possess the two attributes of extreme Yang and extreme Yin.
At the moment, two streams of light, one golden and one blue, were flowing on the flying sword. It looked extraordinarily handsome.
Once Xiao Yi communicated with it, the flying sword immediately flew out of the Fire Dragon Cauldron. Two bolts of lightning, one in gold and one in blue, flitted across the dark tunnel. At the same time, the two bolts of lightning radiated an invincible sword will that span heaven and earth.
"A Flying Sword! Oh my god, it's a Flying Sword!" Chen Yong screamed. His eyes widened in an instant, and his face was instantly filled with surprise and envy.
However, after Luo Yuechan's shock subsided, she cried out in shock, "That's not going to work, Mr. Xiao. If the flying sword were to land on Xiao Pengbo's body, the vermin would spread out."
Xiao Yi didn't pay any attention to Luo Yuechan's warning. Instead, he slightly pressed his lips together and waved his two fingers. He controlled his flying sword and immediately slashed it toward Xiao Pengbo.
"Ah, it's over, it's all over!" Luo Yuechan screamed. She covered her eyes, feeling despair inside.
She thought that Xiao Yi was so mad that he wanted to kill Xiao Pengbo regardless of the consequences.
However, a moment later, Luo Yuechan heard Chen Yong beside her exclaimed in surprise.
Luo Yuechan didn't know what exactly happened, but she also slowly opened her eyes.
However, the scene in front of her stunned Luo Yuechan.
Xiao Pengbo's corpse, which had been swaggering away in the sewage, had strangely turned into an iced chunk.
The deep blue ice even made Luo Yuechan feel a type of threatening coldness from such a great distance.
"Why? Why did that zombie turn into ice?" Luo Yuechan asked in shock.
"Yes, it was caused by Mr. Xiao's flying sword. The flying sword actually has two kinds of attributes." Chen Yong opened his eyes wide and said with a dull voice. At this moment, the shock in his heart had made his brain short-circuit.
"What? How many shocks are you going to give us, Mr. Xiao?" Luo Yuechan lamented. She had seen flying swords before but had never seen or even heard of flying swords with two attributes.
Luo Yuechan did not know that the Tai Formation inside the Fire Dragon Cauldron was a rare formation that could fuse Golden Essence and Snow Crystal. Most Yin and Yang substances were originally incompatible, but after being guided by the Tai Formation, these two opposite substances gradually fused. How could an ordinary person understand the profoundness of these substances?
Meanwhile, with a wave of Xiao Yi's hand, the huge iced chunk suddenly flew out of the sewage and landed in front of Xiao Yi and the other two.
This scene just now was naturally because Xiao Yi had activated the attributes of the Snow Crystal on the flying sword and instantly froze Xiao Pengbo. This was the unique function of the ice crystal flying sword. This time, no matter how many vermins there were in Xiao Pengbo's body, he would have to obediently suppress them within the ice.
At this moment, although Xiao Pengbo was suppressed in the ice, he could see everything outside. Naturally, he was very clear about his current situation. He hurriedly pleaded loudly, "Xiao Yi, I beg you. Please let me go. Anyway, I have a total of a year of life. One year later, I will be turned into ashes. Please spare me. I am your cousin. I promise, I will never do evil again..."
Xiao Yi glanced at Xiao Pengbo, who was wailing inside the ice gourd, but didn't pay any attention to him. If he were to believe Xiao Pengbo's words at this moment, then it would be a lie.
Xiao Yi immediately ordered Gu Lu to spew out a mouthful of Earth Yin Flame. A raging fire ignited on the dark blue ice.
When the ice melted, Xiao Pengbo was also reduced to ashes. Xiao Pengbo's sinful soul had also wholly vanished.
Looking at the pile of ashes, Xiao Yi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, especially when he thought of what Xiao Pengbo had said. To think that the Yinfeng Sect was so vicious, Xiao Yi's heart was filled with boundless indignation.
"Let's go!" Xiao Yi suddenly turned around and strode on the road.
A moment later, they jumped out of the mouth of the pipe.
"How is it?" Hei Feng and Huang Zhong were waiting anxiously. When they saw the three of them coming up, they asked in unison.
"It's settled!" Xiao Yi said flatly.
"Really? That's great!" Hei Feng was so excited that she clenched her fist tightly.
Huang Zhong smiled and said, "Haha, I knew it. With Mr. Xiao's strength, you'll definitely succeed."
After that, Huang Zhong couldn't help but glance at Chen Yong, who had been angry just now. However, he saw that Chen Yong's face had changed at this moment, and his face was full of shock and admiration.
Huang Zhong knew that this young man, who had always been arrogant, must have been shocked by Xiao Yi's methods.
Since this matter was over, Hei Feng decided to withdraw the team.
The soldiers of Wolf-tooth Troop were so happy that they didn't have to face the horrible zombies anymore. Naturally, they blamed Xiao Yi for their kindness.
Xiao Yi, Huang Zhong, and the others also returned to the scenic mountain building.
Chen Yong personally told the whole process of Xiao Yi's defeat of zombies in detail, and he could not help expressing his shock and admiration.
Lang Wang and others nodded again and again, not to mention Xiao Yi's appreciation in their hearts.
So far, the cause of the zombies had been completely settled.
Xiao Yi interrupted everyone's praise and said with a serious face, "Lang Wang, members of the Special Operations Group, the case of the Zombie Curse has basically been settled. However, the Yinfeng Sect has not been removed. If it is not removed, there will be another Xiao Pengbo and Huichun Hall in the future."
"Yes, what Xiao Yi said is absolutely right!" All the people nodded and agreed. However, how to wipe out the Yinfeng Sect had become a big problem.
"These evil cultivators are no different from ordinary people. They only show their true nature when they do evil things. Except for waiting for windfalls, I can't think of a better way." Chen Yong frowned and said.
"However, to wait for a windfall is to sacrifice the lives of ordinary people." Luo Yuechan said with a frown.
"That's right." Xiao Yi nodded. "However, it's not like we can do nothing if we want to find these evil cultivators."
"Oh?" Everyone looked at Xiao Yi.
"These evil cultivators love to harm people. What they love most is the souls of living people. For them, the significance of these souls is also different. Generally speaking, the people born on a lunar day in a lunar year are their key targets. If we can be the first to monitor these special groups, it is inevitable that they will be caught." After that, Xiao Yi briefly told them about the fake date of his birthday on purpose, which attracted the evil spirits.
The crowd's eyes lit up after hearing Xiao Yi's suggestion. This was undoubtedly a viable solution.
Therefore, Lang Wang immediately gave the order. First, he secretly inspected those special people in Hai City. Then, he secretly monitored them.
The crowd had another long talk. Lang Wang thought of Xiao Yi's sleepless days, so he quickly ended the long talk and ordered people to send Xiao Yi home to have a rest.
However, before Xiao Yi walked out of Lang Wang's room, the leaders of the city called him.
At the same time, there was a phone call from the President.
"Mr. Xiao, thank you. On behalf of the country, thank you! I know that wherever you are, you can keep a side safe." The President stayed up late at night just to wait for the news.
Compared to the case in the 1990s, the zombie crisis was equally overwhelming. However, it lasted a short period of time and created a miracle that no one died.
The creator of this miracle was obviously Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi had once again become the hero of Hai City! The saviour of Hai City!
After the noise, Xiao Yi went straight to Mu Qingwan's place. She was the one who didn't sleep well, just like him.
Mu Qingwan saw Xiao Yi and naturally asked about tonight's situation with concern. Xiao Yi gave a brief explanation, and when it came to Xiao Pengbo's final anger and resentment, Mu Qingwan was filled with emotions.
However, Xiao Yi hugged Mu Qingwan and said sincerely, "Qingwan, you're the one who created the special drug for treating the Zombie Curse. Without you, I wouldn't be able to hold out at all. Thank you."
Mu Qingwan smiled and leaned in Xiao Yi's arms. But she said with a smile, "We are husband and wife. Isn't your business my business? I am so distressed that you didn't sleep for a few days. Why am I so stupid? Why can't I immediately develop a special drug? Fortunately, I succeed."
Although Mu Qingwan understated the situation, Xiao Yi knew that there were many hardships behind this sentence.
Looking at the beautiful and tender face of Mu Qingwan, Xiao Yi gently bowed his head, kissed her lips, and tossed and turned.
Mu Qingwan snorted in a low voice. Her charming appearance reminded Xiao Yi of the last time when he was cultivating together with her. As soon as he held the Yu Feiyan fairy in his arms, Xiao Yi was about to go straight into the bedroom.
