Chapter 56 Taiyin Slingshot
After seeing Elder Baoping's combo, Mu Fei immediately praised: "The elder is still agile!"
Tan Xiao suspected that he was the only one in the world who didn't know that Elder Aquarius was a cat. He said that why the "elder" always brought the cat with him wherever he went, even when he fought. In fact, he had already had doubts, but the "elder"'s Taoist and immortal appearance was really too deceptive.
Elder Aquarius took light cat-like steps, repelled the Schnauzer, and then quietly guarded his position. The Schnauzer was confused and looked at it with fear, not daring to move for a while.
"Um... then what should I call him?" Tan Xiao didn't know how to call the old wizard who had been holding Elder Aquarius. He looked at Mu Fei who was a little confused, "No one told me that Elder Aquarius is a cat!"
"Ah, this?" Mu Fei realized that Tan Xiao had always thought the elder was an ordinary orange cat. This was a huge misunderstanding. The elder had practiced silence and had been practicing for many years, so there was no evil spirit on him. The misunderstanding had only lasted for a few months. "The one holding the cat is the boy under the elder, Master Qingfeng."
Tan Xiao: "..."
What a classic boy’s name, Qingfeng Mingyue, right?
Besides, the boy is already this old, how old are you, elder?
"...Elder Qingfeng, do you think Fang Zhu is unconscious?" Tan Xiao asked loudly.
Qingfeng had already pulled Fang Zhu to a safe area, so he went to knock on his shell. Fang Zhu's shell opened slightly, and the soft flesh reflected a faint light under the moonlight. He groaned softly, "I'm having a miscarriage, and I can't move."
Everyone: “!!”
Tan Xiao was anxious. He had never thought that monsters could also have unstable fetuses. "How can you still have a miscarriage? Are you going to have a miscarriage?"
"...With such a large diameter, if it falls, it will result in two deaths." Fang Zhu said with difficulty. He did not expect the Schnauzer to rush over and cause his fetus to move. To be honest, although the Mirage Clan has the tradition of pregnancy pearls, the situation is rare and he does not have much experience.
"Then take a deep breath and stay calm." Tan Xiao continued to look at the Schnauzer, thinking to himself that he should beat this guy first, and then... then go find a veterinarian? Or a veterinarian from the aquatic company?
Fang Zhu obediently began to take deep breaths, inhaling and exhaling the moon's energy.
The Schnauzer barked a few times, knowing that the situation was urgent for both sides and that they had to break through as soon as possible. It did not rush through the barrier immediately, but howled to the sky, just like the Husky: "Awoo - Awoo -"
The moon energy that was difficult to detect with the naked eye was sucked into its mouth. It crouched down and pounced towards Elder Aquarius!
Elder Aquarius narrowed his cat eyes and asked, "You still dare to come?"
The schnauzer pounced on the orange cat, and the two balls of fur rolled around. The dog tried to hold the cat's head in its mouth, and the cat's claws scratched the dog's face. The most shocking battles often take place in a simple and unpretentious way.
Tan Xiao looked at his slingshot at the side and felt that the scene was more down-to-earth, but he didn't care about that. He aimed at the dog's leg and assisted Elder Aquarius.
The rune-wrapped projectile shot towards the two tumbling fur balls, and blood blossomed from the tip of Elder Aquarius's ear, bouncing away silently—
Tan Xiao's pupils shrank. He was sure that he had not shot Elder Baoping by mistake!
Looking at the Schnauzer again, it was also wailing and rolling on the ground. There were burn marks on its hind legs, with faint rune patterns left on them. It was clearly hit by Tan Xiao's bullet.
Mu Fei was about to go forward to catch the dog, but with a "bang", a deep hole as big as a fist was punched on the cement ground in front of her feet, which almost hit her head, full of intimidation.
Tan Xiao looked towards the northwest. It came from that direction!
Mu Fei stood there, still in shock.
The next attack came in a flash, and Fang Zhu pounced out and stood in front of Mu Fei. The shell was deeply dented and a metal object fell to the ground. Everything could be seen clearly. The thing shining in the moonlight was the bullet shell.
"That's it... that's it..." Fang Zhu said in a muffled voice, "I was hit on the shell by such a long-range attack..."
Mu Fei was shocked. They were actually in the same group as the Demon-Slaying Pan that had chased Fang Zhu before. The guns and ammunition that could beat Fang Zhu's shell into this state were definitely not ordinary guns and ammunition!
Huodou is also a big demon, and has the devouring nature of Tengu. They all thought they were capable of planning all this, and even developed the so-called "long-range attack", but they never expected that there were other accomplices. Judging from their actions, they are even better than Huodou.
The knowledge that there is a sniper in the dark who is powerful enough to kill the Yunmeng Great Mirage made everyone present scared, and they felt that their lives were in extreme danger!
The opponent remained silent after Fang Zhu blocked the attack. Perhaps he was observing, or perhaps he was choosing the next sniper target...
Looking at the howling Schnauzer at this time, everyone thought of a saying: When beating a dog, you have to look at the owner first.
Who wouldn't want to temporarily avoid the spotlight?
Tan Xiao looked down at the slingshot in his hand. Compared with the other person's sniper rifle, it looked more like a toy. His heart beat faster and faster...
"Spiritual Master? Spiritual Master?" Liu Qingquan called out to Tan Xiao in a low voice, but found that Tan Xiao looked dazed in the face of such a crisis. Tan Xiao was the planner and main executor of this plan, but he was a high school student after all. Let alone him, how many people had been targeted by sniper rifles, and it was still a combination of modern hot weapons and the terrifying power of evil spirits.
The dogs were barking, the cats were enduring, and the clams were crying.
The shot just now made Fang Zhu, who was already having a miscarriage, completely unable to bear it. "No, I, I'm going to give birth! What should I do! What should I do! Please help me quickly!"
Mu Fei wanted to say that she also couldn't deliver a clam, and with the enemy at her doorstep, she held back and didn't say it out loud to disrupt the morale of the troops. "Okay, don't worry, it'll be done right away."
"Sister Mu, take out his mirage pearl. Have you seen the video of opening a pearl?"
Tan Xiao suddenly said.
Liu Qingquan looked over again and was surprised to find that Tan Xiao had an extremely calm expression when he raised his face. This high school student who was usually always relaxed and a little slow even made him feel a sense of strangeness.
Mu Fei recalled the video she had watched, and didn't care about the sniper in the dark. She went around to the side and reached into Fang Zhu's body. She felt something slippery between her hands. She gritted her teeth and asked, "Where is it?"
Before Fang Zhu could answer, the mirage pearl in his body jumped through the soft flesh, as if responding to Mu Fei, and also further confirmed that Mu Fei was really the child's mother.
The Schnauzer limped to his feet and was about to walk towards his owner. Everyone hesitated. The first shot was at the cat's ears, the second shot was at Mu Fei's feet, and the third shot was at Fang Zhu. Each shot was so frightening. Where would the next shot be?
“Boom!”
Tan Xiao slapped the thunder drum with his palm. The drum skin seemed to be connected to his heart. The Schnauzer staggered and fell to the ground, howling towards the northwest.
The next moment, accompanied by the sound of breaking through the air, the bullet came straight towards Tan Xiao. With a loud "bang", the drum skin of the thunder drum was shattered!
The long-awaited bullet finally arrived.
Tan Xiao was unharmed, and there was a piece of thorn on the ground besides the broken drum skin. Liu Qingquan then realized that from the beginning to the end, Tan Xiao not only used the hiding method, but also used the unique skill of the Chu witch, the thorn branch to replace his body. He also hid the thorn branch in the drum to exchange his body shape.
And it was with this attack that Tan Xiao had clearly seen what he wanted, which was the direction from which the bullet came.
He raised his childish slingshot, aimed at a window on a high floor of the unfinished building and shot a projectile. The projectile was wrapped in a yellow talisman with the words: Dare to change the world.
Naturally, a projectile cannot fly as far as a bullet, but the rune has spontaneously ignited, and its energy has stirred the yin and yang of heaven and earth, shaking like a tide, and shaped like thunder and lightning, rushing towards the unfinished building!
With a "whoosh", the metal railings of the unfinished building made a loud noise due to the invisible force.
And the sniper in the unfinished building was no longer able to make any sound.
Tan Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. This was the first time he felt horrified, but when facing it, he became calmer and even had a spirit of unwillingness to admit defeat. At that moment, he just wanted to face the enemy head-on.
Liu Qingquan felt that if he were alive, he would be drenched in sweat. Not only him, but no one expected that Tan Xiao would counterattack so decisively. If there was more time to discuss, no one would agree with Tan Xiao using a slingshot to snipe against the man in the door!
Liu Qingquan sighed in a low voice: "Spiritual masters are still contestants in competitions. The more dangerous it is, the more potential fighting spirit is stimulated."
At this time, Mu Fei also gritted his teeth and took something out of Fang Zhu's body. In his palm was a huge white mirage bead emitting a faint misty light. Looking closely, it was found that the mirage bead was born with a circle of runes engraved around it.
"Great, it's a girl Zhuzhu." Fang Zhu said weakly.
Everyone present had a devastating thought in their mind: How did you know that?
The Schnauzer whimpered, as if it had sensed something, and staggered away to the northwest, very tenaciously.
They didn't expect that this evil spirit would be so stubborn. Everyone wanted to step forward to stop it, but they saw Fang Zhu finally regain his human form. He climbed up and snatched Tan Xiao's slingshot while crying, and then grabbed the mirage pearl from Mu Fei's hand and shot it at the evil spirit!
This shot was filled with grief and indignation for revenge.
This shot was also quite inaccurate...
The mirage bead fell directly on the ground more than two meters away from the Schnauzer.
Mu Fei: “…”
Is it the biological father? ?
And you, you are weak after giving birth, forget it, let Elder Baoping come...
Even the Schnauzer turned his head and looked at him with disdain.
But the mirage bead bounced up from the ground and hit the dog directly on the forehead, causing its head to collapse and the dog fainted.
The Mirage Pearl rolled back by itself and stopped at Mu Fei's feet.
Everyone: “…………”
...What kind of automatic aiming and automatic recovery system is this!
I was originally thinking that Fang Zhu was abusing the newborn, but now it seems that he only has a little understanding of his own race. Looking at Fang Zhu again, the husband had fainted with relief.
"Oh my god, she's a civilian like me." Mu Fei rubbed the circle of runes and turned to Tan Xiao and said, "Are you still hiring at Lingshi Culture Co., Ltd.? I think my daughter is very suitable to work for you."
"Another nesting doll? I'm working part-time for 404, and then your daughter works for me, right?" Tan Xiao complained, but it must be said that this thing looks really useful, and Fang Zhu's accuracy was wasted.
Didn't you see that he was able to knock out the Huotou in one blow? Apart from the fact that it was the precious Mirage Pearl, it definitely had something to do with the runes on his body. This half-blood really got to the essence of the game.
Mu Fei helped the fainted Fang Zhu up, Tan Xiao picked up the Schnauzer, and Qingfeng also picked up the injured Aquarius Elder.
Elder Baoping pointed at the unfinished building, and Liu Qingquan immediately said, "I'll go clean it!"
He wanted to see where this sniper came from.
The others quickly cleaned up and protected the scene, picking up the shell casings. "Could it be that the sniper rifle has become a spirit? If it is a sword or a weapon that has become a spirit, it would be born with a very fierce and evil aura."
But if there is such a creature, it makes sense that it can suppress the evil spirit, as if it were treating it as a hunting dog.
But when Liu Qingquan came back, he only had a few pieces of wood in his hands, which were stained with blood. "…Escaped."
Tan Xiao was not particularly surprised, and even had a vague premonition in his heart. He was no longer a newcomer involved in supernatural cases. After this period of experience, he could almost understand the effects of his talismans and formulas.
The talisman he brought today, combined with the Taiyin slingshot, was designed for hitting dogs.
But this also gave Tan Xiao some more experience. He had to be thorough in everything. He looked at the bloodstain and said, "It's okay. Since there are traces left, we can check. There are still bullet shells here.
"That's right. I'll contact my servants to check the bullet and its trajectory." Mu Fei also said. The case had taken a lot of twists and turns and was directly linked to Fang Zhu's Demon-Killing Disk. She had a strong feeling that she would have to work overtime.
"Um, is Elder Baoping okay?" Tan Xiao quietly looked at Elder Baoping, who was licking his fur in Master Qingfeng's arms. He nodded slightly to indicate that he was fine.
Mu Fei recalled that Tan Xiao had mistaken Elder Baoping, and found it a little funny. She explained, "The elder happened to be the one who transformed from the Emperor Liujiang one hundred and twenty years ago. He is an absolute veteran of the Old Plum Temple and currently has the highest seniority."
"Excuse me..." Tan Xiao said softly, "I just didn't expect that Lao Mei Temple also accepts non-humans." He thought that only the 404 Office could accommodate all kinds of people. After all, Lao Mei Temple looked like a relatively traditional secular religion.
"It is true that he has been unconventional for a long time. Elder Baoping also made steady progress since he was a boy, and devoted himself to learning and enlightenment, before he was recognized by the sect." Mu Fei said with emotion, "Elder, elder, first of all you have to live a long life, and Elder Baoping has finally made it."
Elder Baoping nodded slowly, indicating that he had also suffered.
"And even at this age, the elder is still contributing to the sect. Not only does he accept 404's dispatches, but he also usually plays with tourists..."
Mu Fei was halfway through her words when Elder Baoping looked at her seriously. She quickly shut up and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Elder."
Having said that, Tan Xiao also brought all the internal organs used for fishing dogs today. The elder had been sniffing these today. He said to Master Qingfeng: "Then use these to nourish the elder's body. The elder doesn't eat vegetarian food, right?"
Master Qingfeng nodded and bowed to him quietly. It was unclear whether it was because he had been with the elder for a long time or because he was just a taciturn person.
Tan Xiao: "Oh, then I don't know whether the elder feeds the cat with raw bones and meat or fully cooked cat food..."
…
The group of people, some fainted and some injured, returned to Office 404. They left Fang Zhu to the medical staff, Mu Fei went to prepare data, and Tan Xiao borrowed the kitchen of the Laomei Temple to cook cat meals. He wanted to see how big the appetite of a cat over 120 years old could be.
Mu Fei asked A Jin to retrieve the information while she discussed with her colleagues how fierce Tan Xiao had just been. She was the one who felt the most deeply about this since, after all, she was the first one to come into contact with Tan Xiao.
"You won't believe this. I went to No. 1 Middle School to find him and asked him what he thought a spiritual master was. He said it was a brilliant and magnificent folk art. I was almost dumbfounded."
"Tsk tsk tsk...the result..."
Ah Jin said calmly: "This is called a cool article."
After everyone laughed for a while, Mu Fei looked at Jiao Guangquan and said with great interest, "I originally asked you to cosplay Peacock God today, but you didn't have the chance. Why don't you change now and let me see how similar you are."
Jiao Guangquan was also a young and fearless person. He had never seen Kong Xuan before, so he immediately turned into the image of Kong Xuan in the memory card. As expected of the 45 million pixels, it was exactly the same.
Just like this, even Zhong Da Huzi would pee when he saw it.
The only thing is that the clothes are a little different, but the 404 office has Kong Xuan's information, and it was filled out by Tan Xiao. Later, he also submitted his ID photo, so he just needs to make the changes accordingly.
Now, no one knows whether Zhong Da Huzi urinated or not, but A Jin’s body is definitely hot. Just for this, he has eight hundred related searches.
"Tell me, if Tan Xiao sees Jiao Guangquan transformed into the Peacock God, how long will it take him to recognize him?"
"It's hard to say. They look so similar that I might not recognize them until school starts..."
Mu Fei knew that Tan Xiao had a problem with face blindness, but the clothes, hairstyle and appearance were exactly the same. "Well, it's really hard to say."
…
Kong Xuan was originally scheduled to stay until the first day of school, but after he knew that Tan Xiao had prepared good things for him, he couldn't hold back and returned to school a few days early.
Kong Xuan found the 404 office. He hadn't seen him for a long time, so he deliberately didn't show up, thinking about how to suddenly appear and scare Tan Xiao. Then Tan Xiao might slap him, or poke him with his arm, or even be bold enough to glare at him.
But after a long while of excited imagination, he suddenly became depressed, because he thought that if he was dressed like an ordinary person, Tan Xiao might not recognize him at first sight, and there would be no surprise like he imagined...
He suddenly felt sad. Although Kong Xuan had known about Tan Xiao's problem for a long time and knew that Tan Xiao would recognize it as long as he showed the exclusive accessories, this did not stop him from imagining it.
His expression changed, and he didn't know what appearance he should show. If he deliberately put on the key chain and hairpin, would it make him look incompetent as the sect leader?
While he was thinking, Tan Xiao had already walked to the office with the cat food. When he opened the door, he saw a man with long hair and fancy clothes looking at him. He smiled at him and said, "Happy New Year."
Tan Xiao was suddenly dazed when he saw this bright color...
Kong Xuan was even more shocked when he saw it, and almost swiped the fake one away. What the hell is this! Send it to wish you a happy new year!
What made him even more panic was that this thing was dressed exactly like him. Tan Xiao might go up and touch this fake guy right away! Then, when Tan Xiao touched the fake guy, he would realize that he had made a mistake, but it was too late. He had already touched him and made a mistake! !
The more Kong Xuan thought about it, the angrier he became, and he wished he could catch Tan Xiao immediately.
When Tan Xiao saw this man, especially the familiar color scheme and the gorgeousness of his whole body, he felt that he was indeed very confusing. He was dazed for a moment, but before Kong Xuan could grab him, he smiled and said, "Jiao Guanghuan?"
Jiao Guangquan's eyes widened: "...How did you know?"
This simply challenges its dignity as a camera.
"You are cosplaying as Kong Xuan, right?" Tan Xiao had just realized that he seemed to be able to identify or even confirm Kong Xuan not only by his clothes and hairstyle, "He is definitely not as kind as you."
Jiao Guangquan said loudly: "But he and I look exactly the same!"
"...I'm sorry, I can't tell." Tan Xiao said innocently. The part that Jiao Guangquan resembled the most was exactly the part that he couldn't tell the most. And knowing Jiao Guangquan's ability, he could even guess who was cosplaying Kong Xuan.
Everyone: “…Great.”
Mu Fei couldn't help but applaud.
This is also a cow in another sense.
Ah Jin couldn't help but sob, yes, he can do the Shura Field, he can do pure love too.
"Haha, isn't Elder Baoping here?" Tan Xiao originally came to deliver cat food, but when he heard that it was in the outer yard, he retreated. But when he turned around, he saw a man standing under the eaves, wearing a middle school winter uniform. When he caught a glimpse of him, he secretly glanced over and quickly turned back.
Tan Xiao walked over and patted the man on the shoulder: "Kong Xuan, look at how many red envelopes you received during the Chinese New Year."
Kong Xuan turned around reservedly and said nothing, but he could not hide his pride at being recognized. He said calmly: "Why do I need red envelopes at this age? I hardly visit relatives." He emphasized that he was an adult peacock who did not want red envelopes, and he was one step ahead of Tan Xiao.
Kong Xuan was originally filled with emotions mainly of satisfaction and a bit of showing off, but suddenly he felt something was wrong. When he got closer, he seemed to smell something... There was even a little bit of residual dust on Tan Xiao's sleeves.
"What is this?" Kong Xuan sniffed it from close to Tan Xiao. When he identified it, his eyes were blazing with anger. "Whose incense ash is this?! It's not mine. Who did you secretly offer it to!!!"
Tan Xiao was confused, and it took him a long time to remember that he seemed to have helped Master Lu hold the incense burner... How could he smell it?
