Infinite Horror: The Strongest Zhongzhou Team

The girl looked at Qiu Sheng with a bright smile and advised him again:

"If you really have to leave, come in and have a drink to warm yourself up before you go."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Sheng's legs became completely immobile, especially with the wind and rain raging outside.

He has a bottom line, but it's really not a high one.

He even told himself, "Well, it's good to have some wine to relieve fatigue."

The rest of the story unfolded naturally.

The drugged wine, and that gentle, tender woman.

When Qiu Sheng was pulled into her arms, the woman took a deep breath.

A wisp of yang energy emanated from Qiu Sheng's mouth and nose. Upon seeing this, the woman lowered her head and kissed him without hesitation.

If Qiu Sheng knew this was the other party's purpose, he would definitely say that it was fine without the drug.

I can barely accept it.

The human and the ghost lay on the bed, embracing each other.

at the same time.

In mid-air, looking at Qiu Sheng's position.

Xiao Honglu fell directly down.

"The target's heart rate is rapidly increasing, and blood flow is accelerating."

Listening to Moss's report, Xiao Honglu gave a half-smile.

"Qiu Sheng is quite fast; this female ghost has really gone all out."

As he spoke, Xiao Honglu landed in an antique-style courtyard.

Green hills and clear waters, a garden of unique rocks.

It's clear that this time, the one who's come after Qiu Sheng is another female ghost with an artistic flair.

Otherwise, ordinary ghosts and monsters wouldn't bother with these things; even if they're fake, they'd at least look pleasing to the eye.

To ordinary people, the courtyard with its three arched gates was, in Xiao Honglu's eyes, a mansion that had squandered money.

Only this one room looked somewhat clean.

But in Xiao Honglu's eyes, it was filled with yin energy and looked like a ghostly mist.

The ability to "blindfold" is simply a very basic illusion.

Xiao Honglu pushed open the door and entered, making no attempt to conceal his intentions.

It's even as normal as going for a casual visit.

Push open the gate and walk through the courtyard.

Then they saw a woman with an outstanding figure and appearance standing in front of the inner room.

Xiao Honglu looked the woman up and down without any hesitation when he saw her suddenly appear and at an inopportune time.

Then he started saying nonsensical things.

"As I said before, Qiusheng is also a kind of gifted individual."

"Otherwise, how come it's always this level of quality?"

"If this were ancient times, he would be considered the next Ning Caichen."

"So it's fate? Or something else?"

"Character?"

As he spoke, Xiao Honglu shook his head to himself.

The woman was dressed in white, with a delicate and charming appearance, like a fairy.

But in his eyes.

The person opposite is a ghost, not a human. Although half of his body is stained with blood and surrounded by ghostly energy, his facial features, figure, and aura are all outstanding.

But think about it.

If this person didn't have a remarkable and moving story to tell, they would have been reincarnated in the netherworld long ago.

Qiu Sheng has no chance to enjoy the good fortune he has now.

The woman in white knelt down immediately upon seeing the composed Xiao Honglu.

"Senior, I..."

Xiao Honglu paid no attention to what the man in front of him was saying.

Even at the very beginning of our meeting, I had no desire to pry into their lives.

He flicked a dandelion he had just picked, and it hovered in front of him.

Just as the woman was speaking in a hollow voice.

Xiao Honglu blew a breath, and all the fluff on the ordinary dandelion in front of him was instantly blown away.

Upon seeing this beautiful scene, the woman who called out "senior" suddenly changed her expression and tried to leave in a flash.

Because of the next moment.

These soft downy fibers somehow transformed into long needles.

A terrifying gale suddenly arose.

The white fluff flying everywhere transformed into tens of thousands of long metal needles in the gale.

It hurtled towards the other side with a whooshing sound.

In just a moment.

As the wind blew by.

The delicate and fragile woman was already lying on the ground.

His body was covered in wounds from the flying needles.

However, the wounds on the surface and the marks left by the long needles and hurricane on the surrounding buildings are fading rapidly.

It's like time has turned back.

Upon witnessing this unbelievable scene, the man in white cried out in shock:

"This...this is an illusion?"

Xiao Honglu's face broke into a smile:
"Ghosts deceive people, and people deceive ghosts. What's wrong with that?"

"Senior said so!"

"I wonder what instructions you have, Senior?"

Seeing that all the wounds on his body had disappeared, the man in white stood up and immediately stood to one side with his hands clasped and head bowed.

He looked extremely nervous.

Xiao Honglu said:

"You're quite clever. How did you know I had something on my mind?"

The man in white knelt down immediately.

"Senior's cultivation is profound and his magical power is unfathomable. If you want to kill me, I'm afraid I won't even have a chance to make a move."

"Senior, there must be a reason why you took action to teach him a lesson."

Xiao Honglu nodded: "Smart, what's your name?"

"Qiu Sheng!"

Seemingly afraid that Xiao Honglu wouldn't believe him, the man in white quickly added:
"Senior, please understand that my name is Qiu Sheng, which sounds the same as Qiu Sheng but is a different name."

And that's not all; I learned at our first meeting that Qiu Sheng and I were born on the same day, in the same month, and at the same time.

"By chance, I met Qiusheng. According to Buddhism, we must have a karmic connection."

That's why we've been entangled with him until now.

Xiao Honglu said directly:
"Clever words and adaptable tactics."

"Whether it's true or false, I have no interest in discussing it. I was originally thinking about how to motivate Qiu Sheng, but now it seems I already have the answer."

"In this way, I can live up to Uncle Jiu's expectations. Three months is enough time for Qiu Sheng to be completely transformed."

The woman looked up, revealing a pitiful and endearing appearance:

"What are you saying, senior? I don't understand!"

"Do actors understand?"

"Senior, you mean, actors?"

As she spoke, the delicate woman stood up and waved her sleeves a couple of times, doing so with surprising skill, clearly someone with formal training.

Xiao Honglu's eyes lit up at the sight.

"It's just like the sky wanting to rain and a mother wanting to remarry—you can't stop it!"

"Looks like it's a good match for my major."

"He's just not honest. Oh well, I'm in a good mood anyway!"

After Xiao Honglu finished speaking, the door to her boudoir was opened from the inside.

The person who came out was undoubtedly Qiu Sheng.

Upon seeing this scene outside, Qiu Sheng rushed over without hesitation.

Without saying a word, he shielded the female ghost behind him.

Seeing Qiu Sheng's practiced movements, Xiao Honglu couldn't help but pull out a few more strands of hair.

next moment.

"Senior Xiao Honglu, please spare Xiao Sheng!"

"She said she was innocent!"

Upon hearing those familiar lines, Xiao Honglu's forehead tightened.

No wonder Uncle Nine has a bad temper; if he had encountered a disciple like this, he wouldn't have been able to handle it either.

Xiao Honglu looked up at the sky and was speechless:
"Uncle Nine isn't here, so I never thought I'd be the one to say those lines."

As he thought about it, his expression became serious.

Xiao Honglu frowned as he looked at the woman in white and said to her:

"Humans and ghosts cannot be together. Your clinging to him will only harm him!"

The woman in white pursed her lips as she looked at Qiu Sheng in front of her.

Qiu Sheng spoke up again: "Senior, please let her go!"

Xiao Honglu turned to Qiu Sheng and said with a disappointed look:

"If I let her go, will she let you go?"

"You handle it!" Xiao Honglu said, then waved his sleeve.

A peach wood sword with a yellow talisman attached was thrown in front of Jia Le!
"I'll wait for you outside. We have training tomorrow."

Then he turned his back and walked out.

Qiu Sheng helped the man in white up, and the two looked at each other.

"You knew all along that I was a ghost?"

Qiu Sheng nodded: "I am a Taoist priest. I knew you were a ghost the second time we met."

"You know I'm a ghost, so why have you come today?"

"I just wanted to come and see you since we live so close by."

As Qiu Sheng spoke, he kicked the peach wood sword on the ground away.

"Stop talking about this, just go."

"Luckily it wasn't my master who came, otherwise he wouldn't be so easy to talk to."

After Qiu Sheng finished speaking, the two stared at each other in silence.

Looking at the person in front of him, the man in white felt a mix of emotions.

Then he threw himself directly into Qiu Sheng's chest.

Qiu Sheng instinctively hugged that slender waist, which was as delicate as a willow branch.

They were so close that they almost became one.

When emotions run high, another round of communication naturally follows.

Fortunately, Qiu Sheng was aware of the situation.

A few minutes later, he walked out of the courtyard gate and followed Xiao Honglu back to the camp.

What Qiu Sheng didn't see was...

After he left, another Xiao Honglu appeared out of nowhere.

However, Xiao Honglu had changed his clothes compared to before.

He was dressed in all black.

When the man in white saw Xiao Honglu again, he immediately knelt down with a thud.

Xiao Honglu was also direct; with a flick of his hand, a dark black flag appeared out of thin air.

His eyes were fixed ahead.

She spoke softly, "Qiu Sheng, would you be willing to enter my soul banner?"

"I can guarantee that you will meet and get to know Qiu Sheng within three months."

"May I ask, senior, what about after three months?"

Xiao Honglu's expression remained unchanged: "After three months, it depends on the heavens and fate!"

"Are you willing?"

The man in white prostrated himself in admiration: "Three months is enough. I'm willing!"

The moment the word "willing" came out.

A cloud of black mist appeared out of thin air from behind and enveloped the white-clad figure.

Finally, a flash of black light disappeared.

It went straight into the flag in Xiao Honglu's hand.

Along with it, this quaint courtyard also disappeared at the same time.

However, Xiao Honglu's expression turned strange after he had done all this.

He stood still for a few breaths.

He then looked at the black banner in his hand and asked:

"You're not a woman?"

The banner remained silent for a long time before finally uttering a hollow and desolate sound:

"I was originally...I was originally..."

"Stop, stop talking!"

Xiao Honglu shook his head, carefully put away the Emperor's Banner, and flew directly into the curtain.

He had thought that this person's story was both moving and inspiring, but he never imagined it would be in this aspect!

Xiao Honglu could only say, "Qiu Sheng, oh Qiu Sheng!"
A long way to go!
-
Day 2 of training.

When Qiu Sheng gritted his teeth and rushed to be the first one.

Jiale was puzzled, Wencai was confused, and Jingjing was shocked!

The seventh day.

While others were still crawling on the ground, Qiusheng was already trying to stand up.

And it was successful.

The training progress has been pushed forward to the second stage.

A month later.

At an altitude of 3,600 meters.

The rear door of the hovering shuttle was wide open.

The four people, trembling uncontrollably, clung to the last remaining pull ring in front of them.

What does this height mean?

Looking down from above, the mountains and rivers are all within sight.

The white clouds that you used to have to look up to see are now right beside you.

Inside the shuttle, Xiao Honglu shouted loudly:

"Today's task is simple: jump!"

"The upper right corner of the arm simulation display shows the real-time altitude. Once the altitude is reached, a green light will illuminate, and you will need to manually open the parachute!"

"Remember, don't close your eyes!"

"Don't miss the time to open the umbrella!"

"You've already watched the instructional video, now let's start dancing!"

"Qiusheng, you go first!"

Xiao Honglu looked at the person who was trembling all over.

"I………"

Qiu Sheng wanted to say something, but the words were on the tip of his tongue.

Without uttering a single word, he willingly let go of the other three's hands amidst their incredulous gazes.

Even though Qiu Sheng's face was already as white as a ghost, he still jumped down resolutely.

A strong gust of wind suddenly blew him away, and he disappeared from the incredulous and shocked gazes of the three people.

Amidst the endless white clouds, one could only vaguely hear Qiu Sheng shouting something.

Xiao Honglu nodded approvingly and said:
"Alright, some people have already gone down. The sooner you go down, the sooner you can get some rest."

"Qiusheng broke his leg yesterday, but he's all better now, isn't he?"

"So don't worry!"

Jiale lowered his head, looking at the villages and towns that resembled ants, and his teeth began to chatter uncontrollably.

The more I look, the more frightened I become—that's exactly what I'm feeling right now.

Jingjing wasn't much better off.

To be honest, this was their first time flying, and to such a high altitude.

But they made them jump on the very first time.

Jiale was about to say something, but then he heard a scream, and Jingjing next to him also let go.

With his eyes open, he jumped straight in!
Jia Le didn't think much, his pale face contorted in a grotesque grimace.

With a twist of his upper body, he followed closely behind, using his feet to propel himself forward.

Two figures stood very close together, one in front of the other.

Xiao Honglu was also a little surprised to see this.

After all, he thought he would have to take some measures, but the result was beyond his expectations.

Is this the power of love?

Or rather, a role model?

Herd mentality?

In the blink of an eye, only one person remained out of the four.

Wencai wanted to kneel down, but if he did, the rope wouldn't be able to reach him.

So now Wencai looks like he's in his forties.

She was looking at Xiao Honglu with teary eyes.

This made Xiao Honglu feel slightly uncomfortable.

In his words, this is disgusting.

Under the pitiful, pleading gaze, Xiao Honglu pressed the switch on the side of the wall.

An arc of electricity leaped up from the shuttle.

Then, a series of "ah ah ah ah" sounds echoed from above the white clouds and resounded across the sky.

Xiao Honglu nodded in satisfaction.

"Moss, make a note of this. Change the time for the next skydive to the morning. That will be more refreshing."

in the coming time.

Endurance training, weight training, stress resistance training, strength training, obstacle course, water survival, extreme off-roading, and so on.

Interspersed among these activities were morning skydiving, midday hand-to-hand combat, evening melee combat, and midnight training.

With Moss's presence, Xiao Honglu had made the most of time and the four people's bodies.

Xiao Honglu only just discovered this.

Three months is exactly the right amount of time for basic training in the real world.

Wencai, Qiusheng, Jiale, and Jingjing also underwent dramatic changes at a visible pace. (End of Chapter)
