Chapter 35: The first time a demon kills a demon, it's very stressful
Chapter 35 The demon killed a demon for the first time, and was nervous .
The demon that was causing trouble in the South Island this time was a genuine demon.
He had been corroded by demonic energy for too long, and he was a demon from the demon realm, so his body had become unrecognizable under the influence of demonic energy.
When they arrived, the village chief was complaining to the disciples from other sects. The villagers had low spiritual power, and they had lost several young and strong laborers in a short period of time. So they quickly sent a letter for help to the world's largest sect and the nearest sect.
Yes, what you fear will come true. The disciple who came first was from the Tianyao Sect.
Chao Jianxue took a closer look and didn't take it seriously. These disciples were all strangers, and they didn't know him. Compared to him, Yu Wei was more famous.
He stepped to the side and tried to see the village chief's appearance, but Yu Wei blocked his view by leaning sideways.
It turned out that Yu Wei was more afraid of being targeted than he was. Chao Jianxue felt warm in his heart, and then compared the heights of the two in confusion.
Oh my God, Yu Wei was actually taller than him. Is this person a bamboo? It grows very fast in spring. Who is the senior brother and who is the junior brother?
The village head was still complaining: "There are not many young men in our village. The demon is entrenched here. Young people dare not go home. They all run out to work. The good place is about to fall apart!"
This village head, is it possible that the reason why the young people here run away is that there is no future in this remote and poor village?
The orchard on the side looked dying, and it was not as energetic as the pear trees in the snow-covered yard.
"Oh, the little immortals of Wuwei Sect are here too." The village head only then noticed that they were wearing the same moon-white sect robes, and his beard was curled up with excitement.
The three people from Tianyao Sect also noticed it. When they saw Yu Wei, the leader, they whispered to each other and knew each other. Who made Yu Wei's album so famous?
"We didn't expect to have such distinguished guests in such a small place like ours. I am so honored by this humble place!"
Chao Jianxue felt uncomfortable when he heard the old man's polite words. He followed Yu Wei's greetings and heard Yu Wei say, "Do you know what kind of monster you just mentioned?"
"I don't know! Who dares to go and see? Those who went to see it never came back. We have low cultivation bases. As long as we show our heads, our souls will be taken away by monsters. There were a few talented people in the past, but they all went to various sects to learn. They haven't come back for more than ten years!"
The old man was filled with anger and didn't say anything useful for a long time. The topic gradually turned from "monsters" to "the village has no money and power" and "can't keep people", which allowed monsters to wreak havoc here.
He didn't stop complaining, starting from his neighbor who sent away a talented child, and all the way to the yellow dog at the door that was scared away because it couldn't be tamed.
Nanshan muttered: "Is this the time to complain? Why doesn't he pick out the main points? His saliva is about to spray all over my face."
Chao Jianxue crossed his arms and said: "Look at how smart the Tianyao Sect is. He just ran away quickly. Tell my junior brother not to talk to him."
It is very likely that the village head has been talking to the disciples of the Tianyao Sect for a long time, and now he has caught them and diverted his saliva.
Qiushui shook his head: "The old man is quite pitiful. Maybe there is no one to talk to him."
Chao Jianxue said, "Hey, junior sister, you stay, we go first?"
Qiushui thought seriously for a moment, but still shook his head: "Forget it."
The three of them squatted or stood under the shade of the tree next to them. Qiushui pulled grass leaves for fun, Nanshan kicked small stones on the ground, and Chao Jianxue leaned against the tree trunk without bones. In the entire Fuxian Mountain sect, it seems that only Yu Wei has the most promising future.
He has an upright posture, the most immortal style, and is the most serious listener.
After listening to the old village head talking for an unknown amount of time, Chao Jianxue yawned several times, and Yu Wei came over and said, "There are two useful pieces of information."
"Go ahead."
"One, the demons will not appear during the day. Two, there is more than one demon."
Nanshan: "More than one? Then can we defeat them? If there were more, shouldn't the demonic energy have been rising to the sky? Didn't the Tianyao Sect find it?"
Yu Wei: "It means it is very good at hiding, or it is not strong."
"The former is finished, but the latter can be fought!" Nanshan said confidently.
"What are you afraid of!" Chao Jianxue was very confident, anyway, the protagonist was there, the sky would not fall, even if it fell, the protagonist's head would be there.
He said: "Anyway, the Tianyao Sect is also there, and when the time comes, I will run faster, and I can run back to get help. Besides, I still have many magic weapons to save my life."
Nanshan came up flatteringly: "Big Brother, can you give me some? Protect me a little?"
Chao Jianxue's tail was about to rise to the sky: "Of course I won't forget you!"
"I want you too." Qiu Shui also said coquettishly.
Yu Wei said, "... Let's get familiar with the surrounding terrain first."
Chao Jianxue took two steps forward and hooked his shoulders, smiling and said, "Do you want it? Can I protect you?"
If he told others about it later, he would be the one who protected the protagonist.
Yu Wei's ears were slightly red, and
he turned his head away: "No need..." His serious look made Chao Jianxue feel itchy. How could a person be so strict with himself and not say a word to make jokes? How boring his life must be.
"Junior brother, junior brother!" After spending a long time with Yu Wei, Chao Jianxue became bolder and pinched his face. Yu Wei panicked and dodged, like a pure little white flower who was taken advantage of.
They searched in the countryside where the demon was said to be haunted, but found no clues. The grass and trees were very lush, which meant that the demon did not like to eat vegetarian food.
After finally waiting for the night to fall, the red light of the setting sun faded, and the mountains were covered with shadows. A cool breeze blew from the forest, making people's scalps numb and shivering.
"Is it a demonic wind?" Chao Jianxue pulled his clothes together.
Yu Wei said, "It's just windy, senior brother, don't be nervous."
Because of the chilly spring weather, it's always especially cold at night.
Chao Jianxue summoned the Ming Qianli Sword, made a very defensive posture, and blinked his eyes: "I'm not nervous."
This was his first time to participate in killing a serious demon, how could he not be nervous.
It's just that there is not even a light in this place, it's so dark, and with the background setting of demons and ghosts, Chao Jianxue always feels that he will be killed suddenly from all sides.
The four people squeezed together, back to back, shoulder to shoulder, and walked cautiously in the forest.
They had already marked the tree during the day, and it was emitting a fluorescent reflection at this time. Chao Jianxue was frightened and took a breath of cold air.
"What's wrong?" Nanshan asked nervously.
After hesitating for a moment, Chao Jianxue said awkwardly: "Ahaha, I was scared by the mark I made."
Why did he draw a smiley face on the tree? I didn't expect that in this atmosphere, the faint smiley face was very weird.
Several people walked and stopped, and gradually, different footsteps sounded in their ears.
Tianyao Sect, who was wearing the black sect uniform, met them head-on. He had drawn his sword and was ready to fight the enemy, but he didn't expect to meet them. He put away his sword and said angrily: "So you are a fellow Taoist from Wuwei Sect, have you found any clues?"
Yu Wei said: "Not yet."
Chao Jianxue observed the other party carefully. The man in the lead had a particularly outstanding temperament, with sharp eyebrows and a high nose. There was a faint dark blue under his eyes. His back was straight, but he exuded a gloomy and frustrated temperament, like a sword hidden in a sheath waiting to be unleashed.
He swept his calm eyes over them and bowed, saying, "Why don't we go together?"
Yu Wei nodded.
Chao Jianxue looked at Yu Wei, then at the man, and was surprised: these two people are very similar.
He is quiet, handsome, and exudes an unparalleled aura of keeping strangers away from him. The only difference is that Yu Wei's coldness does not hit people, while the coldness of this Tianyao Sect disciple seems to be able to slap people in the face.
Since we know each other, how can we not know each other's names? Chao Jianxue asked, "What's your name, fellow Taoist? Which disciple of Tianyao Sect?"
Nanshan Qiushui was surprised that he dared to talk to Tianyao Sect, and then heard this Tianyao Sect disciple say, "Tianyao Sword Dao, Tan Zhou."
Sword Dao, that is the lineage of the head of Tianyao Sect. As for the name Tan Zhou, there is no record of it in the gossip of Xuanzhen Realm in recent years. But Chao Jianxue looked at his face and he definitely didn't look like an ordinary passerby.
He poked Yu Wei and sent a voice message to him, "Ask Mo Zezhi for me."
Yu Wei glanced at him sharply, as if to say "Don't commit suicide."
Chao Jianxue gave up the idea of finding out about his enemy's recent situation. Just seeing that Tan Zhou didn't pay much attention to him from beginning to end, he knew that he didn't recognize him.
The night was dark and windy, and the night crows kept crying. The wind carried a fishy smell and blew straight into people's faces, like the smell of soil and decay.
The spirits of several people were extremely tense, and suddenly one of them lowered his head with a startled cry. He looked down and happened to step into a puddle, which was waist-deep.
Chao Jianxue approached and smelled a fishy sweetness.
They worked together to pull him out of the pit. When he
looked up again, he saw several shadows of people hanging down from the trees above his head, like ghosts, with their feet constantly swaying.
"Fuck, what did you hear just now? How could they suddenly hang down!" The disciple of Tianyao Sect had just climbed out of the puddle and looked up to see it first. He was so scared that his face turned pale.
Even if they were distracted to pull people just now, with the hearing ability of the practicing disciples, they would be able to immediately detect any movement
around them. This made the appearance of these hanging people seem strange.
Yu Wei was the first to send out the sword intent and cut the rope tied to one of the gray shadows.
The man fell down and groaned sadly.
Leaning over to see his true face, he seemed to be the young man who had gone missing in the woods from this village, but he looked like he had been hungry for several days, with a pale face and thin body, and deep sunken cheekbones on both sides. I don't know if his stomach was filled with ascites, but it was morbidly protruding.
"He's still breathing." Tan Zhou said.
He also swung out his sword intent, and the sword light flew a circuitous arc in the night sky, releasing all the unfortunate villagers hanging on all sides.
Each of them was half dead and looked like they had suffered inhumane torture.
"It's not a good idea to leave them here like this, or should we move them out of the woods and put them in the wild field next to them?" Qiu Shui said, picking up a person and sighing, "So light!"
"Don't! What if it's a bait for the demon?" Nanshan nervously snatched the back of the person in her hand, and the collar was stuck on the villager's throat. Seeing his mouth half open, his eyes rolled up, a ghost was about to fly out of his throat.
Seeing this, Chao Jianxue said, "Hey, if you keep fighting like this, this person will die soon."
"Sorry, sorry." Nanshan quickly let go.
On the other side, Tan Zhou led people to check the pulse of these villagers and said, "There is no breath of demons. Let's send the people out first as this Taoist friend said."
Each person carried one person on his back, and Chao Jianxue just acted as a hands-off boss.
They walked back along the marks they made when they came.
The disciples of Tianyao Sect were frightened and said, "Who drew the positioning symbol? It's really ingenious. It looks like a tree man face."
The tree man face he was talking about is a kind of tree demon.
Chao Jianxue said nothing and just walked blindly.
He walked at the end of the team, and in front of him was Yu Wei, who was carrying a person on his back. Yu Wei just looked like he was carrying a bag, and his back was still upright.
As he watched, suddenly, this person seemed to tremble, and liquid flowed out of his two streams.
Chao Jianxue stretched his neck, looked at him in astonishment, and called out, "Junior brother..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the person on Yu Wei's back twisted violently.
"Ah——"
The shouts from the front echoed through the forest, and it was obvious that he had encountered the same situation.
Yu Wei immediately threw off the man on his back and turned his head to see that the villager was shaking all over, his limbs were weakly supported on the ground, and his belly was bulging high.
Then, there was a sound like a watermelon peel being cut open with a knife.
Groups of black spiders swarmed out from the middle of his belly.
