casket of old days

Chapter 13 Demon Slaying and Demon Qi

Looking at the back of Zhang Da leading the people away, Chu Qiguang thought to himself: "In this way, they should not have the energy to trouble me for at least three to five days." '

Chu Qiguang heard from Qiao Zhi that Qingyang County has always had a strong martial arts style, and there are many people who participated in the martial arts examination to obtain fame in this dynasty.

Nowadays, there are five or six families in the county that have high officials in the imperial court or have become officials. One of them, the Hao family, has their eyes on a property of the Wang family.

Now if the Wang family hears what he said, they will definitely think that the Hao family must be using this official method. It's tough.

But Chu Qiguang originally just used this information to drag a tiger's skin for a while to avoid the troubles in front of him.

That night, Chu Qiguang lay on the kang, waiting for his mother and sister to fall asleep.

He felt that his stomach was so hungry that there was a chill rushing back and forth, and he felt uncomfortable and awake at the same time.

After enduring it for a long time, he felt that his sister and mother should have fallen asleep, so he climbed up cautiously.

Suddenly a small hand grabbed him, Chu Qiguang looked down, and found that his sister was looking at him with wide eyes: "Brother, are you too hungry to sleep?"

As she said that, she stuffed half a piece of noodle cake over: "Don't drink cold water bro, my stomach hurts and I pulled my pants down after drinking too much, here's for you."

Chu Qiguang was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect that the other party was not willing to finish his dinner, and there was still half of it left.

Resisting the urge to eat the bread in one bite, he pushed the bread back: "Eat it yourself, I'm not hungry."

Sister: "Mother said that you are the male of the family, you need to eat more to work."

Looking at his younger sister who was giving him bread and staring at it with pursed lips, Chu Qiguang sighed softly, took the remaining bread and divided it into two: "Then we each have half."

The younger sister didn't refuse anymore, and licked the quarter of the baked pancake bit by bit, as if she was afraid that it would be gone soon.

After comforting his sister to sleep, Chu Qiguang touched his stomach, and secretly said in his heart: "It's no fun to live like this anymore, we must improve quickly."By the way, Qiao Zhizhi commanded so many animals, it shouldn't be difficult to hunt and eat some meat, right? '

……

On the way to the back mountain, Chu Qiguang was thinking about what he had seen and heard during the day while walking.

Ever since the management of the Wang family, the head of the village, and Zhang Da, the neighbors around today are a little strange. After Chu Qiguang greeted them as in the past, most of them did not respond, obviously for fear of annoying the Wang family.

"Today, when Qiao Zhi and Qiao Zhi invited coach Wu, we made a plan to deal with the Wang family by the way. '

Still climbing up the steps according to yesterday's route, towards the platform where Qiao Zhi taught the little monsters, but this time, not far away, he heard the roars of all kinds of birds and beasts. With a little fear and panic.

"what happened?"

Chu Qiguang quickly ran to the direction of the platform, and before he arrived, he saw two wild cats who had led him the way before standing in front of the bamboo forest. The man stood up and waved at him with his paws raised.

Chu Qiguang ran up to them and asked, "What happened?"

The two wild cats meowed at him a few times and waved their paws anxiously. Seeing that he couldn't understand, they simply turned around and seemed to lead the way again.

Chu Qiguang followed the two cats all the way and ran in another direction, when suddenly he heard a loud noise coming from the stone platform where he was going.

"Monster! Trying to get away with saying a few human words while hiding? I have already seen that you are not human!"

Then there was Jie Jie's strange laughter accompanied by Qiao Zhi's voice in the night sky: "Taoist! So what if I'm not a human being? The monsters on the mountain are under my supervision, and they don't do any harm. On the contrary, the villagers at the bottom of the mountain go up the mountain, often Killing my race, are you willing to kill demons and eliminate demons?"

The male voice said coldly: "Since ancient times, human beings and monsters have always been incompatible. When people want to open mountains and deforestation, they will naturally meet monsters and slay monsters. The so-called natural selection of the fittest survives. Who would have thought that you, an old monster, would be so pedantic?"

Qiao Zhi: "Stinky Taoist priest! Today I will show you my abilities, my ancestor."

While speaking, there were bursts of air blasts again, and the sound of falling trees and bamboo forests sounded again and again, mixed with the roars and wailings of animals, getting farther and farther away.

Chu Qiguang was taken by two wild cats to hide in a crevice of a mountain.

Recalling the voice he heard just now, Chu Qiguang didn't know who came to kill demons and demons, and felt a little uneasy.

The two wild cats turned around in a hurry, their tails drooped in fear, and were caught between their legs, looking very flustered.

I don't know how long it took before two dim lights lit up from outside, and Qiao Zhi's voice came along the night wind: "I lured that stinky Taoist priest away, come out."

The two wild cats cheered when they heard this, rushed out and circled around Qiao Zhi.

Chu Qiguang also breathed a sigh of relief, and after crawling out, he asked, "Master Qiao, who was that man just now? Why did he fight with you?"

Qiao Zhi sighed when he heard the words, and said quietly: "That is the prison of the Taoist temple in Qingyang County, called Taoist Qingling, who is in charge of all the rituals, and is also a strong hand at killing demons. In the story you heard at the entrance of the village yesterday, it is He happened to be a guest in Boxing County that day, and stabbed the scholar to death with a sword."

'It turned out to be him? Chu Qiguang's eyes moved, and he asked again: "Master, in the story of the corpse case, do you think the scholar is devoted to Taoism and dreamed of by Taoist priests, or is he cast sorcery and dreamed by Taoist priests?"

Qiao Zhi shook his head: "I don't know, but..." He narrowed his eyes slightly: "This stinky Taoist priest has a demonic aura about him, there must be something wrong with him."

Chu Qiguang was surprised and said, "Monster Qi?"

Qiao Zhi nodded: "The demonic aura is the aura of yin and yang. It is an inhuman aura that the demon has transformed into a human, but it has not yet been perfected. It should only be present in a demon with a human form."

Chu Qiguang still didn't know much about the monster system in this world, but when Qiao Zhi took the initiative to talk about it, he simply asked.

During Qiao Zhi's explanation, Chu Qiguang learned that there are two types of monsters in this world, monsters and monsters.

Most of the so-called monsters live in the deep mountains and great swamps, and most of them have the same temperament as wild beasts, but their power is far superior to ordinary beasts, and they have wisdom not inferior to human beings.

After Chu Qiguang's inquiry, Qiao Zhi mentioned some well-known types of monsters, such as Ba Snake, Mountain Ghost, Xuanhu, Guhuo Bird, etc., all of which are ferocious beasts that can easily hurt and eat people.

Monsters are some animals that are born with intelligence and have awakened their spiritual wisdom. If such monsters can persevere in cultivating the Tao, they will be able to cultivate a human form after entering the Tao, almost no different from humans.

The blood of Taoist monsters has been reproduced from generation to generation, and there is a chance that they will have spiritual wisdom when they are born, and some can even have a human form.

When the number of such monsters increases, they become a group, which is called the monster clan.The seven most famous monster clans in this world are collectively called the Seven Great Monster Races.

After listening to this, Chu Qiguang said: "The Qingling Taoist has a monster in him, either he is a monster cultivated by himself, or he was born from a monster clan. But he can transform into a human form without becoming a Taoist. Naturally, he came from a certain Are you a monster?"

Qiao Zhi said: "It's very possible. I don't know how he, a monster from the monster race, got into the Taoist temple, and even learned the martial arts and Taoism of the Taoist temple."

Chu Qiguang asked strangely: "Qingyang Temple often presides over folk affairs such as slaying demons and eliminating demons, so why can't you tell him?"
