MTL - Celestial Immortal-Chapter 70 Mine King

  Chapter 70 Mine Corpse King

Before   , Daoist Xu Ping prevented Chu Chen from revealing his true strength. His purpose was to protect him. He didn't want him to get involved in the "Bone Empress" case and endure the danger he shouldn't bear.

  Now, the case of the White Bone Empress was closed, and Chu Chen was also promoted to the immortal official and became one of the people in charge of the county ghosts and gods.

  There is no need to hide his strength.

  Not only does it not hide, but it must be promoted vigorously.

  In this way, Chu Chen can sit firmly in the position of the 9th grade immortal officer, the deputy head of the third class of the commander, and can establish the prestige of the "talker" in front of the third class of inspectors.

  Otherwise, both the three deputy directors and the inspectors underneath would treat Chu Chen as a move away from the ranks.

  Tao Master Xu Ping considered this, and began to build momentum for Chu Chen, let him prove his strength and win the approval of the ghosts and gods.

  This suspected case involving the Ninth-Rank monster is the first step for Chu Chen to "establish prestige".

  "The deputy head of the chief, the case is like this. There is a village called Wagang Village in sixty miles from the east and west of the city. Yesterday afternoon, a villager reported to the Ghost and God Division that there was a corpse disaster in the village and zombies were infested."

"Last night, my subordinates and colleagues went to the countryside for field inspections. They did see the zombie with their own eyes, but the zombie can fly and spells. I am afraid that he is a corpse king. The subordinates did not dare to ask for a big one. They did not fight with them and came back overnight to report Ghost God Division."

  On the road, the ghosts and gods inspectors Wu Gang and Wu Yi brothers reported the case to Chu Chen.

  Chu Chen nodded after hearing it.

  The two brothers of the Wu family are ordinary monks and have not been admitted, but they have rich experience in handling cases, and they are very experienced in doing things. They are indeed cadres.

  If they are the demons, they will rashly, not only are they in danger, but they are also easy to stun the snakes and let the demons escape.

  Any monster is the best to kill the first time.

  Unresolved several times, other monsters are not fools, they will naturally become more refined and difficult to deal with.

  Just like fishing, the fish in a pond has been fishing for a long time, and the fish have learned to be smart, and it is not easy to get the bait, not to mention the awakened monsters.

   "How did the corpse king come, can you investigate it clearly?"

   Chu Chen asked.

  The two inspectors nodded and explained the cause of the matter one by one.

  In the early years, a large copper mine was discovered near Wagang Village.

  After decades of government mining, the rich ore was exhausted, the veins gradually became barren, and the mining cost became more and more unprofitable.

  So, the mine was closed.

  Some miners left, some did not leave at all, so they married and had children nearby and settled down.

As soon as there were more people living together, Wagang Village was born, and the once devastated mines have gradually turned into green mountains again.

After   Wagang villagers settled down, they lived here for generations, and occasionally encountered demons, ghosts, and persecutions. However, with the protection of the court and fairy courts, they were generally stable, and the incense of each family continued to be passed on.

  A few months ago, a strange incident occurred in Wagang Village where livestock disappeared inexplicably.

  In the beginning, the villagers didn’t care about it either, only that it was a wild thing in the mountains that was caught, or a gangster stole, and they didn’t think it was a monster and evil.

  The day before yesterday, a villager went to herd cattle in an ancient mine, and the person was missing. So yesterday the village chief organized a search for the villagers and finally found the dead bodies of villagers and old scalpers near the ancient mining area.

  Whether it is a human or a cow, the whole body's energy has been sucked dry by the zombies and turned into a skin.

  "The deputy head of the commander-in-chief, his subordinates believe that these zombies were originally miners who died in the mines. Over the years, the corpses have become stiff due to the temperature of the underground veins of gold and stone."

  Wu Yi and Wu Gang brothers spoke out their own judgments.

  Chu Chen nodded slightly: "If this is the case, I am afraid that this place is a place to raise corpses. When the mine was opened for more than ten years, there were not one or two miners who died in disasters. There are probably many zombies."

   "That's right!" The Wu family brothers nodded, then looked at the bookcase behind Chu Chen, and said:

   "The deputy head of the chief, the Wagangshan Mine is in front of you. Would you like to summon the little devil out first? We may meet the corpse king at any time."

  Speaking of this, Wu Gang and Wu Yi brothers looked a little bit cramped, for fear that they would offend the new "talker" of the ghost gods because of their own words.

  But, you can’t say it.

  The entire Guishen Division knows that the reason why this Duguan apprentice can be promoted to the official immortal staff, can become one of the county's Guishen Division's agents, is entirely dependent on background and luck.

  There are talents in others, and they entered the product at a young age, and no one dare to underestimate it.

  But it’s strength, no one is optimistic about it.

  After all, less than a month after I entered the Tao and I entered the product again, I haven’t mastered a few serious spells. What kind of magical powers can I have!

  Chu Chen, the deputy head of the general squad, is a fancy, not only inferior to the deputy heads of the various squads, even if many old-brand inspectors are better than him.

  This seems to have become the consensus of the county ghosts and gods.

  In the past two days, many colleagues have talked about him privately, with disdain in his words, sourness.

  Chu Chen laughed at this, without being irritated by it.

  It's mediocre to not be jealous. The competition has failed, and it's normal to be sour.

   "My master's ghost pet followed the master, and it didn't come today."

  The two brothers Wu Gang and Wu Yi looked down, and their complexions suddenly looked ugly.

  I didn’t bring the ghost pet that Xu Duguan was in charge of, so how to deal with the case?

  This is not another trip in vain.

  While shocked, the two brothers stopped and looked around, as if worried that the corpse king was nearby, jumping out at any time and killing people.

  Chu Chen turned his head and looked at the two in surprise.

   "Why don't you leave?"

  "The chief and deputy head of the team, here."

  The Wu brothers laughed more ugly than they cried, hesitated for a long time, and stopped talking.

  They want to live, but they don’t want to die, and they don’t want to feed zombies!

  Chu Chen smiled, guessing what the two of them were thinking.

  It’s no wonder that the master asked him to accept a case involving the Ninth-Rank Monster. If he doesn’t prove his strength, he won’t be able to hold his ground in the Ghosts and Gods Division.

   "Since you are not at ease, then go back to Wagang Village and wait. I already know the place and you don't need to lead the way."

  Chu Chen did not force the two of them, wasting their tongues.

   After finishing speaking, Chu Chen strode toward the original site of the mine.

  The Wu brothers looked at each other, showing embarrassment.

  If you follow your heart, the two will turn their heads and leave without hesitation.

  After so many years of patrolling, it is not a stunner who is not afraid of the sky, and if he does not fight an unsure battle, the two will not hesitate to protect themselves when they detect danger.

  After all, they can shake people when they come from public affairs, but they can’t fight by themselves, they can move to rescue soldiers, and they don’t need to be stupid to rush forward.

  But at this time, the two hesitated.

  The boss is on, but the two of them ran away. What is it like?

  If there is something wrong with the deputy head of the chief, the two brothers will definitely be unlucky.

  Even if they come back safely, the two brothers can't eat their pockets.

  After struggling, the two brothers gritted their teeth and finally caught up.
