Changsheng: My experience in patrolling the liver

Chapter 296: Izumo Province, a swordsman! (Two in one)

The appearance of the two green-eyed corpse puppets was actually quite different from what Song Changming remembered.

But Song Changming recognized at a glance that the two corpses in front of him were his two brothers.

Having lived with her for more than ten years as a child, Song Changming believed that he would not make a mistake.

However, now he has become a corpse puppet. He is both his brother and no longer his brother.

At least the corpse puppet didn't recognize him.

In other words, the corpse puppets are being controlled, their self-awareness is completely suppressed, and they are now just two combat puppets that follow orders.

Song Changming flew to the ground and put away his knife. Seeing the corpse puppets chasing him, he stretched out his hands like lightning and grabbed the arms of the two corpse puppets that were stabbing with guns.

The two green-eyed corpse puppets, which were equally powerful, were unable to shake Song Changming and were thrown out again.

Then Song Changming turned around and reached out his hand towards the waterfall and grabbed it in the air.

Without the protection of the jade talisman, Lou Baoqiu was dragged out by Song Changming using his innate internal energy.

"If your corpse moves again, I will tear your neck apart." Song Changming grabbed Lou Baoqiu, his eyes filled with endless coldness.

Lou Baoqiu felt cold all over and quickly ordered the corpse puppet in his hand to stop.

"So strong!" Hu Yan watched from the side as Song Changming subdued Lou Baoqiu in just a few moves. He was amazed at how Song Changming had trained himself to have such a strong body that he was much stronger than their green-eyed corpse puppets.

In fact, there is a huge gap in strength between the Green-Eyed Corpse Puppets.

The two green-eyed corpses that Lou Baoqiu carried with him were at least two levels stronger than his previous two green-eyed corpse puppets!

But when facing Song Changming, Lou Baoqiu's two green-eyed corpse puppets were still unable to do anything to Song Changming and protect Lou Baoqiu, the corpse refiner.

It can be seen that Song Changming's strength is even better than he imagined.

No wonder he was so bold and presumptuous. Even though he knew Lou Baoqiu's identity and background, he still dared to arrest him.

"Sir, I am the descendant of Elder Lou of the Corpse Refining Sect. You can want whatever you want, but my father will not give up if you kill me." Lou Baoqiu threatened cautiously.

"Stop talking nonsense and don't resist. I won't kill you for now." Song Changming was unmoved. He enveloped the few people and the corpse puppets with his innate energy and flew away.

This place was still too close to the Corpse Refining Sect, so to avoid any complications, he had to go farther away to deal with the matter.

Two days later, in an uninhabited mountain somewhere on Cuibai Road.

Song Changming killed all of Lou Baoqiu's other corpse puppets, leaving only the two green-eyed corpse puppets.

"Release your control over them." Song Changming ordered Lou Baoqiu.

Lou Baoqiu hesitated. Once he let go of the control over the last two corpse puppets, he would completely become a lamb to be slaughtered.

Song Changming didn't want to waste time, so he snapped his fingers and a stream of innate energy instantly pierced through Lou Baoqiu's chest, missing the heart by only a few centimeters.

Lou Baoqiu looked as if he had been hit hard, his face distorted, and no one knew whether it was due to the pain or excessive shock.

"Do you think I dare not kill you?" Song Changming raised his finger to Lou Baoqiu's forehead.

"No, no, you misunderstood!" Lou Baoqiu hurriedly did as he was told, focusing his mental power and giving up control of the two corpse puppets.

Although the connection between him and the two corpse puppets still exists and it is impossible to completely cut off control, as long as his mental power does not affect or disrupt the corpse puppets as much as possible, the corpse puppets' hidden self-awareness will be revived.

"Long, long bright."

Just the next moment after Lou Baoqiu did as he was told, Song Changming heard a hoarse murmur coming from behind, as if it could not wait and was about to come out.

Song Changming felt a shock all over his body and his heart seemed to skip a beat.

He himself couldn't remember the last time his emotions fluctuated so drastically.

He turned his head and looked at the two corpses.

The green in the original pupils seemed to have faded a little. The face of the corpse puppet was still stiff, without any expression, and lifeless, but Song Changming could feel the subtle changes in the corpse puppet.

"Brother?" Song Changming walked closer.

"Really? It's you." The other corpse puppet seemed a little incredulous.

Just as Song Changming recognized the two men as his brothers at first sight, the two men also recognized the grown-up Song Changming at first sight.

The blood-thicker-than-water kinship still connects life and death and has not yet been severed.

"It's great to be able to talk to my brother again." Song Changming murmured with a smile on his face.

I just feel that all the previous efforts are worth it.

"Chang, Changming has grown up." The eldest brother Song Changping's voice became smoother, and one could hear his excitement.

"Changming, why are you here? Am I dreaming?" The second brother Song Changan still finds it hard to believe.

The self-consciousness trapped in the corpse puppet is like being drowned in deep water for a long time, never seeing the light of day.

During this period, they would occasionally see the situation outside through the perspective of the corpse puppets, but more often they would just sleep aimlessly in them until the day when their souls and consciousness completely dissipated.

During this period, they would also dream like they did when they were alive, often dreaming about the past, dreaming about returning home, seeing their parents, their sister, and Changming.

But waking up is all empty.

Decades have remained the same, until today, Song Changming's appearance is no longer just a dream, and this excitement is inevitable.

"Is everything okay at home now?" Song Changping suddenly asked.

Song Changming was silent for a moment, then said: "A lot of things happened."

He didn't go into detail about the family affairs.

Right now, he had only one question to ask his two brothers.

"Brother, do you want to live?"

He sought a way to bring the two relatives back to life, but what was more important was the wishes of the two parties themselves.

It is important to know whether they are willing to continue to exist in the world as inhuman zombies.

If they don't want to live like this, Song Changming can only respect their decision and let them be free.

He would not force them to stay.

Song Changming explained the whole process, including the corpse-transmigration method that was still in the ancient tomb.

"If you want to live, brother, I will do my best to help you master this technique!" Song Changming said seriously.

After hearing this, the two brothers looked at each other, both a little hesitant.

"Changming, is this matter dangerous? I think we should just forget it. My second brother and I are already dead, and returning to the west should be the best ending for us." The eldest brother Song Changping said.

He listened to what Song Changming said and knew that Song Changming had made so many efforts for them, and he was moved.

Giving up hope of living so hastily seemed to be a betrayal of Song Changming's previous kindness.

But on the other hand, they didn't want to become a burden to Song Changming. Song Changming had come this far and deserved a better future. Why should he continue to worry about these two dead people?

"Brother, don't worry about anything else. As long as you are willing, this is a different way of cultivation with unlimited development possibilities. In the future, you may be able to get rid of this corpse-like body and reach the ultimate realm."

He saw that his elder and second brothers were hesitant, and he also saw that this hesitation was due to their desire to live, not their desire to seek liberation.

In this way, he had already made up his mind.

"Changming, Second Brother is willing."

Suddenly, Song Changan spoke after a long period of silence and thought, his tone becoming much firmer.

If given the chance, he would not be willing to leave the world just like that, as he still has many things he wants to do.

He wanted to resist, to kill all the evil people in the Corpse Refining Sect including Lou Baoqiu, to compensate those who had been harmed by them in the past few decades, to help Song Changming and fulfill his duty as a brother, to go home to see his deceased parents and his third sister who was in her old age,
Song Changping sighed, looked at Song Changming, and said nothing.

Song Changming nodded, already understanding his brother's thoughts, and turned to walk towards Lou Baoqiu.

"this."

Lou Baoqiu was panicked and before he could open his mouth, Song Changming slapped him unconscious.

Looking at his two brothers again, they did not go berserk because the corpse refiner lost consciousness, and their self-awareness was still there.

This makes things easier.

Lou Baoqiu cannot be killed for the time being, but he can be kept unconscious.

In this way, he could not control the corpse puppet temporarily. Song Changping and Song Changan even gained control of a small part of the body, and for the first time in decades, they had a certain degree of autonomy.

This was also because he deliberately released the restraints on the corpse puppet before being knocked unconscious. Otherwise, even if the corpse puppet was unconscious, it would not be able to move independently.

"I can move." Song Changan looked at his raised hands.

Rough lines, cracked skin full of folds and keratin, and thick black fingers.

In all these years, he had never been able to take a good look at his body like he did today.

It can only be described as ugly, but no matter how ugly and strange it is, the feeling of having a body still fascinates him, and he really doesn't want to go back to the cage without daylight.

and so.

He looked at the unconscious Lou Baoqiu, and murderous intent suddenly rose in his heart.

"Second brother, once you have mastered the magic and gotten rid of your identity as a corpse puppet, there will be a time to kill him." Song Changming said.

Song Changan tried hard to calm the murderous intent in his heart and put his raised foot down again.

"Changming is right. There is no need to rush."

Hu Yan, who was far away, couldn't hear what Song Changming was saying to the two corpse puppets. He waited for a while alone, but became impatient and wanted to go forward to seek an antidote.

However, before he could open his mouth, a beam of purple-gold flame fell on his head from afar and burned it into dry bones.

"We have finished our business here, so what's next?" Song Changming looked into the distance.

Next, it’s time to go to Izumo Prefecture!
Yunzhou is so large that it has a total of thirty-six territorial boundaries, thousands of large cities, and a total registered official population of over five billion!
If you want to cross Yunzhou, it will take countless years on foot.

If you want to quickly cross the borders of mountains, rivers and states, flying is the only way.

Outside of Yunzhou, to the east are the Thirty-Six Caves of Southern Xinjiang, and to the west are the Three Thousand Sacred Mountains.

A long canyon road, along the river, with three big horses walking along it.

Two of them immediately showed tall and burly figures, wearing large white robes that covered their faces and were extremely low-key.

On the horse in the middle was riding a young man, and his appearance was revealed. It was Song Changming who had left Cuibai Road.

Song Changming looked at the content displayed on his personal interface.

Sword-Practicing Madman (Blue): A madman who was born for swords. He has a very high level of comprehension in the way of swordsmanship, often has unique insights, and has the potential to be pioneering. His sword-practice efficiency and sword-drawing power are improved, and his self-created sword decisions and sword techniques have certain bonus effects.

This was the award he chose after the annual summary last night.

During his one year in the army, he experienced marching missions of all sizes and received high evaluations in all aspects.

Especially the large-scale task of guarding the spirit crystal vein has raised the evaluation score a lot.

As a result, this year's rewards include an additional feature upgrade option, and it is a reward of choosing two out of four.

Fortunately, he was able to choose two rewards, allowing him to select one more life as a reward. This way, he could satisfy the 3,000 lifespans required for the upgrade feature reward without affecting the guaranteed one life.

"A sword-practicing maniac, a madman who was born for swords." Song Changming looked at the new features of this blue-grade weapon that was upgraded from 'sword-practicing expert'.

Looking at its introduction, I always feel that this new feature is extraordinary and will bring him considerable benefits in the future.

Whether it is the potential to create a precedent or the bonus when creating one's own sword technique, these are extremely precious characteristic effects that made Song Changming think about it more.

Those martial arts masters often have the ability to create their own style.

And now, Song Changming seems to have touched this ability.

In other words, this new feature, to a certain extent, gave Song Changming the potential to become a martial arts master.

If one truly achieves the status of a Grandmaster, he will be qualified to found a school in the ancient country of Guyuan and preach and teach martial arts!

Of course, the specific characteristics, power and effects can only be known after he develops it further.

At the moment, he only felt that he was swinging the sword more freely and smoothly, and when he performed martial arts, he could often burst out with greater power and destructive force than before.

There are often moments when an idea suddenly strikes my head, which I didn't have when I was swinging the knife before.

In terms of his talent in swordsmanship, he was indeed elevated by this new feature.

Just as he was thinking about it, a carriage came from behind and slowed down slightly when passing by Song Changming and the other two.

In the carriage, a young man with a bookish air lifted the curtain and first looked at the two masked men beside Song Changming, and then his eyes fell on Song Changming, the only one who showed up.

"Brother, where should Tiandaoyuan go?"

"Sorry, this is my first time here and I don't know the way." Song Changming shook his head.

"Oh? Brother, are you also going to join the sect on Lingshan Mountain? Congratulations. My name is Li Lu Zong, from the Li family of Shangli Dao. This time I am also going to join the Tiandao Temple on Lingshan Mountain." The young man bowed.

"Congratulations." Song Changming did not explain much, nor did he introduce himself.

The young man was quite tactful. Seeing that Song Changming didn't want to say more, he didn't bother to argue any further and said goodbye and left.

"Changming, tell me why when you arrived in Guyuan Country, you did not choose a Lingshan sect to practice, but chose to join the army." After the carriage went away, one of the masked men in white robes beside Song Changming suddenly spoke.

This was none other than his elder brother, Song Changping, who had been traveling with him.

"I don't have freedom in the sect, so I joined the army and served the government, which is more suitable for me." Song Changming smiled.
