At this time, a disciple had already taken out a backpack and put the four zombie heads into it and hung them on the horse.
After a small harvest, everyone's face had a happy expression.
Their spirits were lifted and they didn't feel tired anymore.
But Lin Fan still decided to let everyone rest.
Conserve their energy.
So everyone sat down to rest.
They took out their rations to eat.
After seeing Lin Fan's power and wisdom, the twelve disciples were convinced by Lin Fan. At this time, they all took out their rations and shared it with Lin Fan.
Some brought biscuits, some brought beef jerky, some brought water, some even brought wine … they were all prepared.
Lin Fan didn't prepare anything and didn't bring anything. At this time, he didn't hold back, taking the beef jerky and drinking the wine.
While eating and drinking, he looked into the distance and didn't say anything.
"Brother Lin, following you is promising. It's only been a morning and we've already had a harvest.
Brother Lin, I heard that the copper-armored corpse is hidden in the Eagle Grieving Stream. Should we go there and do something big? "
A disciple took out an osmanthus cake and handed it to Lin Fan, saying excitedly.
Lin Fan took the osmanthus cake from his hand and looked at him, "It's just a rumor, it might not be trustworthy?"
That disciple was startled, "The Eagle Grieving Stream has always been the habitat of demons and ghosts.
The news shouldn't be wrong. "
Lin Fan didn't say anything.
That disciple said, "Brother Lin, are we going to the Eagle Grieving Stream or not?"
Lin Fan asked back, "What do you think?"
That disciple didn't answer, but another disciple already said, "The Eagle Grieving Stream's terrain is too dangerous and too complicated. The cliffs are high and the stream is deep. Even the sunlight can't shine in. There's haze and fog everywhere, and the bottom of the stream is filled with yin energy. The day is like the night, dark and gloomy. It's too dangerous …"
Another disciple continued, "There are only thirteen of us. If we go, it'll be like dumplings!"
Lin Fan didn't say anything else. He just glanced at the disciple from before and took a bite of the osmanthus cake. Then, he waved the osmanthus cake in his hand. "This osmanthus cake is really delicious. Where did you buy it?"
The disciple was so embarrassed that his face was flushed red. Seeing that Lin Fan had changed the topic, his face looked a little better. He then replied, "I brought it from home.
My mother made it. "
"In the future, if you want to eat your mother's Osmanthus Cake again, don't go to the Eagle's Sorrow Ravine." After Lin Fan finished speaking, he stuffed half of the Osmanthus Cake into his mouth and sank into deep thought.
Lin Fan felt that this information was probably true. The bronze-armored corpse should be resting at Eagle's Grieving Ravine, but they couldn't risk going there.
The Eagle's Grieving Stream was a well-known dangerous place. Even an eagle couldn't fly past that deep stream.
Not to mention humans.
However, the information provided by that disciple was still very useful. Even if they didn't go to the Eagle Worry Stream, they could still intercept and kill lone Bronze Armored Corpses on the way there.
Just as they thought of this, they heard a rustling sound coming from the side of the forest. This sound caused everyone's expression to change.
Lin Fan stood up with a swoosh and shouted, "Everyone get on your horses and follow me out of the forest."
No matter if they were fighting against humans or zombies, their equipment and equipment were not suitable for fighting in the woods.
Everyone quickly got on their horses and then rode out of the forest with Lin Fan.
At this time, the rustling sound behind them became louder. It was obvious that something was chasing them from behind.
They didn't look back and galloped forward. In order to increase their speed, Lin Fan pulled out his broadsword and chopped down the trees in their way.
Fortunately, the area covered by the trees wasn't large. After a short while, they safely left the forest.
However, they were dumbfounded as soon as they left the forest.
Outside the forest stood nine fellows with long hair and pale skin. They weren't humans, but were clearly hairy zombies.
At this time, they subconsciously turned their heads and saw that the rustling sound behind them, or rather, the ones chasing them, were actually six hairy zombies.
"Take care of them with the meteor hammer!"
Lin Fan didn't hesitate at all. After giving his instructions, he immediately pulled out the meteor hammer from his waist. The hundred-pound meteor hammer was very heavy, but when he swung it in his hand, it was as easy as swinging a ball.
Not only Lin Fan, but the twelve disciples also swung their meteor hammers.
These twelve people were selected to kill zombies, so their strength was naturally top-notch among the new disciples. Their cultivations were all at the Outer Forging Realm, and some of them were even higher than Lin Fan, so they were able to wield the hundred-pound meteor hammer with ease.
The meteor hammer was a soft weapon, but the force it exerted was even more violent than a hard weapon due to its speed. Moreover, as long as this fifty kilogram meteor hammer accurately hit the zombie's head, although it couldn't smash the hairy zombie's head, it could still knock it out.
Originally, Lin Fan asked everyone to bring the meteor hammer to deal with the bronze-armored zombies, but seeing that the number of hairy zombies exceeded their number, he decided to use it to reduce casualties.
Whoosh … whoosh … whoosh … whoosh …
Without waiting for the zombies to surround them, the meteor hammer had already been swung out.
In this round of attacks, seven of the thirteen meteor hammers hit the zombies' heads, and three hit the zombies' heads. Immediately, three hairy zombies were smashed to the ground, and four hit the hairy zombies' chests or shoulders, causing their bodies to tremble violently. They staggered and howled miserably as they covered their wounds. It was obvious that their injuries weren't light.
The zombies' cultivation was to refine their bodies.
Their body refining process was from the outside to the inside, using the corpse qi in their bodies to refine their skin, flesh, tendons, bones, nerves, and then internal organs.
Zombies at the level of the hairy zombies had only refined their skin and flesh. They hadn't even refined their tendons and bones, so their speed and reaction weren't fast.
As for internal organs, there was no need to even mention them.
Therefore, the hairy zombies weren't most afraid of sharp weapons like sabers and swords, but blunt and heavy weapons like hammers. If such weapons hit the body, it would cause real internal injuries.
Originally, this group of hairy zombies wanted to pincer Lin Fan and the others, but unexpectedly, before they could even reach them, three of them had already fallen, and four were injured.
The remaining eight rushed up from the front and back, and pounced on the thirteen people on the horses.
Hairy zombies didn't use weapons at all, their claws and teeth were the sharpest weapons.
Moreover, as long as they scratched or bit open the human's skin and flesh, and successfully forced the corpse qi in, then they would have succeeded in half. Next, they could just sit and wait for the human to freeze, and then take advantage of the situation.
Lin Fan had the ability to absorb corpse qi, but the other twelve disciples didn't.
Seeing the zombies pouncing, Lin Fan shouted to remind them, "Everyone be careful, don't let these beasts hurt you."
With that, Lin Fan jumped off the horse, and tried to use himself as a target to attract more hairy zombies.
For him, the hairy zombies weren't strong enough to hurt him.
The other twelve disciples were on the horses, waving their weapons, so the zombies couldn't hurt them, so they turned to attack Lin Fan.
Bang!
Without waiting for a hairy zombie to come close, Lin Fan rammed his head into it, and the Barbaric Bull's strength erupted, sending it flying.
A hairy zombie behind took the opportunity to sneak attack Lin Fan with its claws, but before it could reach him, Lin Fan grabbed its arm, and suddenly stretched out his head, and hit the hairy zombie's head. The Barbaric Bull's strength shook it, and the hairy zombie fainted.
Seeing that Lin Fan's strength was too strong, and unstoppable, the other zombies didn't pounce on him, but instead pounced on the other disciples.
Seeing that Lin Fan took the lead, and didn't care about his own safety, the other disciples were encouraged, and one after another, they dismounted and desperately fought with the hairy zombies.
After fighting for a while, the fifteen hairy zombies all fell down.
Lin Fan and the other thirteen people, three horses and three people were injured.
At this time, the three people and three horses all fell to the ground, rubbing their wounds and crying out in pain.
In fact, the wounds caused by the zombies weren't big, but the corpse qi was.
When the zombies attacked with their claws and teeth, they would carry corpse qi, and once a wound was created, the corpse qi would enter the body through the wound.
Whether it was a person or a horse, once the corpse qi entered the body, it would be extremely difficult to expel.
Only Qi Transformation Stage experts had the ability to expel the corpse qi, and of course, Lin Fan's panel ability was also included.
Lin Fan couldn't just watch as the three men and three horses fell to the ground.
He couldn't just watch them die.
Of course, the most important thing was that these people and horses could also earn points for him.
Most importantly, he couldn't bear to give up the corpse qi in their bodies.
"Give them the Golden Wound Medicine," Lin Fan said, pointing at the three horses and three disciples.
"Senior Brother Lin, I'm afraid they won't make it." A disciple frowned and said. Although this was a bit heartless, it was the truth.
"Less nonsense, give them the medicine." Lin Fan shouted.
"Yes." At this time, a disciple took out the Golden Wound Medicine he carried with him and wrapped it around the three injured disciples.
Lin Fan took the opportunity to walk up and pretend to check on the three disciples' injuries. He took the opportunity to extract the corpse qi that had invaded their bodies, but he didn't extract it all at once.
To treat them, he had to pay attention to the method.
If he absorbed all the corpse qi in their bodies at once, their wounds wouldn't be too big and their bodies wouldn't be too much of a hindrance. They could stand up at any time. This would be too shocking.
Although his extraction method was very subtle, it could still arouse suspicion.
After all, he was the one leading the group to kill the zombies this time.
If something strange happened in the group, the first suspect would be him, Lin Fan.
"Bind the medicine to the horses as well." When the disciple finished binding the medicine and was about to wrap it up, Lin Fan ordered.
"Senior Brother Lin, don't waste any more resources, it's useless.
Let alone three animals. "An older disciple at the peak of the Phloem Stage frowned.
"What did you say?" Lin Fan glared at the disciple.
The disciple immediately lowered his head, his face showing a timid expression. Although his cultivation was higher than Lin Fan's, the scene of Lin Fan dismounting his horse and charging at the zombies made him feel shocked and awed at the same time. He knew he wasn't a match for Lin Fan, so he said, "I'm sorry, Senior Brother Lin, I was wrong."
"As a person, you can't be so heartless."
Lin Fan said, and then the disciple in charge of applying medicine hurriedly bound the medicine to the three horses.
Lin Fan took the opportunity to approach and extract the corpse qi from the horses, saying, "They are our comrades. Not to mention you, even the Sect Leader wouldn't dare to call them animals."
Lin Fan didn't extract all the corpse qi from the horses, but also left some.
Then, Lin Fan pulled out his broadsword and personally cut off the heads of the fifteen hairy zombies, taking the opportunity to extract the corpse qi from their bodies.
This time, including the ones extracted from the humans and horses, he obtained a total of 623 points of corpse qi.
It was a great harvest.
The key point was that this battle completely established Lin Fan's prestige in the team.
"Senior Brother Lin, we should be on our way."
"Senior Brother Lin, what about them?" The senior disciple pointed at the three disciples and the three horses.
"Senior Brother Lin, don't worry about us. You can go." An injured disciple said sadly.
"Senior Brother Lin, you are a good person. In the next life, we will still be brothers." Another injured disciple cried. He was still young, only fifteen years old, and didn't want to die.
"We will stay with them." Lin Fan said.
"Senior Brother Lin, even if you carry them back now, you can't save their lives." The senior disciple said.
"Yes, Senior Brother Lin, you can't be righteous."
"Well, leave some food for them. Let's leave."
With that, Lin Fan glanced at them again, then turned over and mounted the horse.
…
The group of thirteen disciples was now left with ten.
Along the way, the ten of them were silent and depressed.
Although they had a great harvest this time, they also saw the horror of the zombies. Except for Lin Fan, their hearts were also full of fear.
According to Lin Fan's plan, they would no longer make a long-distance raid.
Taking the initiative to look for zombies was better than waiting for the zombies to come to them.
Lin Fan felt that the three injured disciples and the horses should be considered as a big bait, and should have a tempting effect on the zombies.
Therefore, when the team traveled about a kilometer, Lin Fan used the excuse of checking on the injuries of the three disciples to turn back.
After repeating this twice, the other nine disciples were a little annoyed. If it weren't for their own safety, they would have parted ways with Lin Fan.
But when they turned back in annoyance for the third time, they were pleasantly surprised. The ten hairy zombies attacked the three injured disciples and the horses.
Seeing this, the group was nervous and excited. They rushed over and shot a round of arrows from a distance.
Xiu Xiu Xiu Xiu …
Because of the distance, only three arrows hit the hairy zombies, but none of them hit the vital points and the hairy zombies didn't fall down.
When they got closer, they used the meteor hammer to hit another four zombies, but not all of them were seriously injured. Soon, another two zombies got up.
Then, they rushed towards Lin Fan and the others.
This time, Lin Fan didn't dismount from his horse, nor did he order the other disciples to dismount. Instead, he used the advantage of the warhorse's gallop and the meteor hammer's long-distance attack, intending to knock down the hairy zombies one by one before they could get close.
This method was very effective. After two rounds of attack, all eight hairy zombies were knocked down.
But at this time, they didn't lose the ability to fight, and some of the hairy zombies could even get up.
Lin Fan ordered them to repeat the same trick, still using the meteor hammer to attack from a distance until all the hairy zombies were smashed to death and knocked unconscious. Then, they finally dismounted.
Then, they beheaded the ten hairy zombies. Lin Fan took the opportunity to collect corpse energy. This time, Lin Fan obtained another 399 points of corpse energy.
"Take a break."
Lin Fan ordered. Then, he went to the three injured disciples and squatted down, pretending to check their injuries, and extracted all the corpse energy from their bodies.
The extraction process was hidden, so the three disciples couldn't feel it. So, they didn't use their qi to sense it, and didn't stand up. They just answered Lin Fan that they were much better.
Lin Fan came back to see them again and again, making them very touched. Especially this time, if it weren't for Lin Fan's return, their brains would've been dug out by the hairy zombies, and they might've even been roasted and eaten.
"Senior Brother Lin, today can be said to be a big harvest." At this time, the group of disciples was very happy, and they took out dry food for Lin Fan to eat.
Just as they were resting, the sound of horses neighing came from the distance.
Everyone was startled, and when they looked up, they saw a group of people riding horses on a wilderness path under the setting sun.
In the distance, they could see that the group of people were wearing black clothes, which were different from the Haitian Gang's clothes. They were most likely the Black Tiger gang members.
This time, the Haitian Gang wasn't the only one who received the order from the county government to kill the zombies. The Black Tiger also received the order.
