Chapter 148 Mandrill (Fourth update! Please subscribe, please ask for a monthly pass!)
Now that he decided to live in Taoyuan Village, Zhao Xun naturally couldn't just put on a show.

He asked Zhou Yicheng to find a house with a relatively spacious house for lodging.

The houses in the mountains are not so particular, with thatched roofs and rocks piled into the walls.

From a distance, it looks gray.

There are no carved beams and painted buildings, brackets and cornices like the mansions of Chang'an, the capital.

It's not even as rich as the ordinary wealthy family, simple and mediocre.

But Zhao Xun just likes this simple feeling.

There is only one blind man named He Ergou in this family.

Both his parents have passed away, and he has not married a wife, so the earthen yard is only lived by one person, which seems very deserted.

With so many people rushing in suddenly, He Ergou felt very uncomfortable.

"Uncle He, don't be nervous, we are from the government, and we came to Taoyuan Village to help you catch monsters."

Zhao Xun tried his best to make his voice sound calmer, first to appease He Ergou, and then get along better.

If He Ergou has been so guarded, he will definitely be very awkward and twisted when getting along.

"Monsters... monsters are here, eating people... eating people..."

Unexpectedly, when he heard the word "Monster Beast", Uncle He's mood fluctuated greatly, and his whole body trembled.

"Don't be afraid, with me here, monsters dare not be presumptuous."

Sixth Senior Brother walked up to He Ergou, took out the compass, and the pointer automatically started to search for the direction.

This unique voice immediately attracted He Ergou's attention.

"Compass, it's a compass..."

"Uncle He, have you heard of the compass?"

Zhao Xun felt very curious.

"I heard from the old people in the village that the compass can point to monsters and find out evil spirits."

Zhao Xun secretly said in his heart, he couldn't see that Uncle He is still knowledgeable.

"Uncle He, tell us what kind of monster is raging in Taoyuan Village?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Xun felt a little ridiculous.

He actually asked such a question to a blind man.

But instinct told him that He Ergou was a stranger who could see unclean things.

You don't have to use your eyes to see things, you can also use your heart.

And people who are blind generally have more sharpened other senses.

"The monster... the monster hides at night and sneaks into the village to look for food after midnight. At first, it attacked livestock and poultry. Later, the children in the village began to be murdered by it. After that, women and the elderly .In the end, even young adults cannot escape the murderous hands."

He Ergou's voice was full of fear, and he said with a trill: "This guy is very principled when hunting. He only preys on one or two people at a time. Nearly 50 people have been killed in the past month. Let's go to the neighboring county Reported to the officials, but the county magistrate didn't care at all. In the end, it was Zhou Yicheng who came to help."

Hearing this, Zhao Xun was shocked.

Is this really a ghost like Shikui and Shiba?
You must know that these Yin objects are refined from corpses, and they are dead objects in essence, but there are still some remaining souls in the body, and their ability to think independently is limited.

But the thinking and executive power displayed by this monster is by no means what ordinary corpses and corpses can show.

It is very likely that it is really a demon and not a demon.

Zhao Xun has always been vague about the boundaries between demons and demons. This time, he may use this opportunity to clarify the difference between the two.

"Uncle He, don't worry, if this monster dares to come again this time, I will tell him to come and go."

Zhao Xun clenched his fists and swore secretly.

...

...

The moon is dark and the wind is high at night, killing people and setting fires.

The same applies to monsters.

A mandrill ghostly floated down from the mountain and landed in the col where Taoyuan Village is located.

Mandrills are a type of mountain ghosts that hunt birds and beasts in the deep mountains all the year round.

Generally speaking, mandrills do not take the initiative to hurt people.

But this mandrill is different.

He accidentally tasted the blood of a herb picker who fell off a cliff, and he became fond of hunting humans.

Compared with poultry and livestock, human flesh and blood are more suitable for mandrills.

From its point of view, human flesh and blood are more delicious and juicy, and it sucks the blood desperately every time until the corpse turns into a mummy.

Although people are delicious, the mandrill still maintains restraint and moderation.

Because he knew that if he went on a killing spree and killed all the villagers in Taoyuan Village, he would not be able to enjoy such delicious food for a long time to come.

From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality.

Mandrills have tasted human beings and are unwilling to hunt game or livestock.

He wants to eat these villagers slowly until the last villager is hunted down.

At that time, he will probably go to another mountain, find another village and start again, and the cycle will start again.

But that's clearly not the time yet.

"Hiss, hiss..."

The mandrill stuck out its tongue to feel the spirit of the man in the night wind.

So delicious, so mouth-watering.

The mandrill couldn't bear it anymore, not even for a moment.

He jumped a few times deftly and sneaked into the village.

This village is very popular, and the mandrill instinctively rushed to the most popular place.

Start hunting from the most popular place, so that you can continue to hunt.

strangeness…

When the mandrill came to this spacious stone room again, he frowned instinctively.

In his impression, he would never come to this house every time he came to the village, because the house exudes very little popularity, and there is only one blind old man.

Why is it so abnormal today?

The mandrill was very vigilant, he breathed out tentatively, and saw a wandering spirit floating in the yard, making a strange cry.

Sure enough, the courtyard suddenly shone with golden light.

A net made of golden filaments the size of a fishing net covered it from above, firmly suppressing the wandering soul.

The wandering soul was scorched by the golden net and screamed hysterically.

It didn't take long for the wandering soul to fly away.

The mandrill was shocked, there was indeed a fraud in this yard, it should be a rune master who is proficient in magic arts and set up a large formation, if he just broke in rashly, he probably would end up no better than that wandering spirit.

When something goes wrong, just run away.

The mandrill was about to run, but at this moment a silver-white flood dragon came whistling and blowing wind from behind.

He kicked his legs instinctively, and leaned back, even so, the dragon's claws still tore off a piece of flesh on his chest.

Blood dripped for a while.

The mandrill's blood was green, dripping down its body.

Enduring the severe pain, it fled backward desperately.

While running away from its wounds, it began to heal, and soon it was back to normal.

Mandrills are able to heal themselves from non-fatal wounds, and mandrills cannot die unless their heads are chopped off.

But it feels fear.

After living for 500 years, this mandrill felt fear for the first time.

Jiaolong chased after him and drove the mandrill away. Gradually, the mandrill found that his route was blocked.

Standing in front of him at this moment is a handsome young man, holding a treasured knife emitting white light in his hand.
