Chapter 1023 Are there really demons?

"Boss Zhao, we have received education, so it may be easier for us to make a living in the city."

"Okay, then follow me into the city, but there is a severe food shortage in the city, and you may have to work hard to get enough to eat."

The road from Huinan Town to Huinan City was not far, and sentry posts had already been set up, so it was relatively easy and safe during the day, so the few of them started chatting.

"How did you find the demon?"

"We have learned the Taiping Dao method and refined some magical instruments, although most of them have no effect, but look at this..."

Dong Da raised the mahogany ring in his hand and said
"As long as a demon comes within ten feet, this peach wood ring will heat up."

"Then why didn't the demon you talked about last night appear?"

"This... We are not sure either. Maybe everyone has woken up and the demon has realized that there is no chance to attack."

"Can you sell me this ring?"

“Yes, but this thing sometimes works and sometimes doesn’t.”

Several people thought that the Dong brothers and sisters were just wandering around, but for Zhao Wuji's sake, they stopped talking about random things and told some interesting stories.

If Zhao Wuji did not have the memory reset skill and secretly knew that the two siblings were able to make the peach wood ring work because of their unique physiques, he would also think that they were liars.

"It's okay, sell me a few and I'll consider it as my sponsorship of your living expenses."

Zhao Wuji didn't want to spy on Sagittarius' reaction to blocking the player connection, so he didn't know whether these two were plot players. Therefore, he gave all the proceeds from hunting wolves to the Dong brothers and sisters like a native.

Zhao Ji and the others thought that it was Zhao Wuji who took care of the brother and sister in distress, so they didn't care.

"After all, he is the one who can open an inn in the city."

"You guys will just be helpers here for the time being. Just follow their instructions on what to do. Although the pay isn't high, it's enough to have enough food to eat."

"Thank you, Boss Zhao"

Seeing that the innkeepers showed Zhao Wuji great respect, the Dong siblings probably understood that he was the boss. Zhao Wuji knew that this was the former property, so it was not difficult to arrange for two people.

"Write me a brief summary of your understanding of demons. This is your reward."

Zhao Wuji handed over a few more taels of silver.
"Boss, this is too much."

"It's not much. Once you finish writing, just give it to the second boss."

Zhao Wuji arranged for the two of them to work as waiters in an inn.

"From now on, it will depend on your own efforts" "Thank you, Boss"

After Zhao Wuji said goodbye to everyone, he changed his clothes and returned to the City Lord's Mansion through the back door.

"My lord, you came back so soon. Did you find good farmland?"

When Mi Lan saw Zhao Wuji, she asked with a little surprise.

“I didn’t find good farmland, but I almost encountered a demon.”

Zhao Wuji raised the peach wood ring in his hand and walked towards the safe house while speaking.

Seeing Zhao Wuji's hurried look, Mi Lan left without saying anything else.

Through his understanding over the past few days, Zhao Wuji roughly understood that Mi Lan was indeed a character set by the system.

"Hui Nan City, the City Lord's Mansion, the safe house, and Mi Lan should be bound together, so Mi Lan cannot leave the city."

"Oh, my lord?"

Zhao Wuji lowered his head to think and accidentally bumped into Zhang Xiu.

"My Lord, why did you come back so soon?"

"Um"

Zhao Wuji was not sure whether Zhang Xiu was a plot player or a plot character, so he had to stop and chat with him patiently for a few words.

“I didn’t find good farmland, but I almost encountered a demon.”

"Meet a demon?... My Lord, I don't believe there are demons in this world."

"Well, you and Zhao Ji are both from the military, so it's normal for you not to believe in demons, but I still choose to believe in them. For example, Zhang Jiao can mobilize thunder from the sky."

"My Lord, although I don't know how they can use the power of thunder, I still don't believe in the existence of demons."

"Well, I don't believe it all. Go ahead and do your work."

"Um"

Although Zhao Wuji wanted to analyze it, he didn't dare to reveal the inside story of the system, so he had to enter the safe house vaguely.

"It seems that this wise leader is a bit too cautious."

Zhang Xiu thought secretly in his mind, and when he saw Zhao Wuji enter the "bedroom", he disappeared into the darkness like a ghost and continued to guard the city lord's mansion.
