Liaozhai: A scholar should draw a sword

Chapter 18 A mighty sword slays the wolf monster!

"Hahaha, I'm only thinking of leaving now, it's too late!"

Suddenly, an extremely strange voice sounded in the forest.

Zhou Yu had never heard such a weird accent, it didn't sound like a human voice at all, but what he said was barely understandable.

With a pale face, the old woman pushed Ying Ning violently, and at the same time hurriedly shouted at Zhou Yu:

"The wolf demon is here, sir, you quickly take Ying Ning and leave together, and the old man stops the wolf demon..."

Before the words were finished, a black shadow suddenly appeared: "Old guy, since you don't know how to praise, I will beat you to death."

"Bang~"

The old woman didn't have time to react, she was sent flying by the black shadow's paw.

"Aunt~"

Ying Ning called out sadly, and quickly ran over...

At this time, Zhou Yu finally saw the opponent clearly: a monster with the head of a wolf and a human body.

It would be a lie to say that I was not surprised at all.

After all, Zhou Yu had never faced a monster head-on, and he didn't know if what he had learned could really restrain the monsters.

"Hehe, I didn't expect there to be a human..." The wolf demon stretched out its scarlet tongue, and said with a smirk, "Then I will swallow your belly first."

Seeing the wolf monster rushing towards him with its teeth and claws stretched out, Zhou Yu took two quick steps back, at the same time he took out his scholar's pen and waved: "Fire!"

Miraculously, a ball of flames really gushed out, scaring the wolf demon to avoid it quickly.

This trick is exactly the exclusive skill: creating something out of nothing.

Under normal circumstances, Zhou Yu would not use it easily, after all, it would consume luck points.

Wolves have few natural enemies in nature, but they also have a weakness: they are afraid of fire.

But it was just an illusion after all, and it couldn't hurt the wolf demon.

So after scaring away the wolf demon, Zhou Yu immediately put away the scholar's pen and took out the Qinglian sword...

"Yingning, I'm fine, hurry up, go help Mr...."

On the other side, the old woman hurriedly gave instructions to Ying Ning.

"Oh~"

Ying Ning turned around and ran towards Zhou Yu.

"Learn the world, how can you allow you and other evil spirits to do evil!"

Zhou Yu yelled loudly, and then used his mighty nine moves to attack the wolf demon with all his might.

While dancing the sword, he read aloud: "The Master said: Those who know do not confuse, those who are benevolent do not worry, and those who are brave do not fear."

This is a bit similar to the Taoist saying "Heaven and earth are infinite, and the universe borrows the law."

Regardless of whether it was useful or not, in short, Zhou Yu felt that the power was pouring out continuously, which was much lighter and more elegant than practicing swords in ordinary times.

"Hugh hurts Mister!"

Ying Ning rushed forward fearlessly, and shot a shadow of the palm with Kong Kong's palm to attack the wolf demon.

It's a pity that her morality is not enough, even though she hit the wolf monster, it only caused a little trouble to the wolf monster, not much lethality.

However, this created an offensive opportunity for Zhou Yu.

"Benevolence, Righteousness, Propriety, Wisdom, Faith..."

The sword style moves one after another, like a torrential river.

Moreover, different from practicing swords at home on weekdays, the Qinglian Sword actually shone faintly, and the moves it used also formed faint handwriting out of thin air, forcing the wolf monster to retreat again and again.

At this time, Zhou Yu finally began to feel the presence of awe-inspiring righteousness.

A passionate, fearless belief hovered in his heart.

And this kind of belief turned into an invisible force, which made Zhou Yu extremely proud, and the wolf demon became small in his eyes.

Seeing her husband being so brave, Ying Ning was surprised and admired.

I want to applaud loudly, but I am afraid that it will affect my husband's mind.

So, he dodged behind the wolf demon and waited for an opportunity to sneak attack.

"Ying Ning, it seems that this gentleman's cultivation is not simple... It's just a little strange, his way is not quite like Taoism, much less like Buddhism..."

"Mother, sir is a scholar."

"Could it be that the power he exerted is really the righteousness of a scholar?"

As if to confirm her guess, Zhou Yu sang a song of righteousness while making moves: "Heaven and earth have righteousness, mixed with manifolds. The bottom is the river and the mountain, and the top is the sun and stars..."

"Shut up! Stop reading!"

The wolf demon finally couldn't take it anymore.

It wasn't that it was irritated, but that every word Zhou Yu chanted had a huge impact on it.

It was as if a needle had been pricked in his head, making it impossible for him to calm down and fight.

"Be careful sir!"

Ying Ning suddenly let out an exclamation, and at the same time waved her palm hastily.

Because, the wolf demon suddenly transformed into its real body, a huge gray wolf, almost three times the size of an ordinary wolf.

"I fought with you..."

The old woman couldn't help but start to shoot.

The white hair swept away like a tide, trapping the wolf demon in it.

"Ow~"

The wolf demon roared angrily, and violently waved its giant claws...

Seeing that he was about to get out of trouble, Zhou Yu rushed to the front with the Qinglian sword in his hand like lightning, and raised the sword high: "Hao Qi Slash!"

"call!"

A beam of brilliance poured out, like a blazing sun.

Then there was a rain of blood splashed.

With the power of the sword, he chopped off the huge head of the wolf monster.

However, the demon is a demon after all, and he survived after being beheaded. The body of the wolf fled towards the outside of the forest, and the head of the wolf flew up and bit Zhou Yu viciously.

"Be careful sir!"

Ying Ning slapped out a palm, sending the wolf's head flying to one side.

The old woman chased after the wolf, wrapping her hair tightly around it...

"Sir, cut quickly!"

"Boom~"

Zhou Yu swung his sword again and slashed down heavily.

This sword cut the wolf's head to pieces.

As soon as the wolf's head was broken, the wolf's body finally stopped struggling and collapsed to the ground like a puddle of mud.

The old woman was worried, and hurriedly said: "Ying Ning, hurry up, burn the body of this wolf demon quickly, and watch out for it to come back to life again."

"Oh~"

Ying Ning responded, dragged the wolf carcass over, and burned it together with the shattered wolf head.

When the flames came together, Zhou Yu let out a long sigh of relief.

The old woman came forward and bowed in awe: "Unexpectedly, my husband is a tall man, and my old man has no eyes. Please forgive me, sir."

"The old man is so polite..."

"Mr. must also know the identity of Ying Ning. She can be taught by Mr.'s side, so I feel at ease."

Ying Ning smiled and said, "Mother, sir not only taught me to read and write, but also taught me to practice Taoism."

"Well, then you will definitely practice hard, but don't let your husband live up to your expectations, and don't forget your life-saving grace."

Ying Ning nodded obediently: "I know Aunt, Ying Ning will never forget."

After a while, the wolf demon was completely reduced to ashes.

The old woman couldn't help sighing: "The wolf demon is dead, and I don't know when Xiaorong will come back."

"Don't worry, Auntie, Miss Rong will definitely come back."

At this time, Zhou Yu couldn't help asking: "Old man, why can't you reincarnate?"

The old woman smiled wryly and shook her head: "I can't tell what's going on, but in this world, there are too many lonely ghosts wandering in the world like Lao Shen."

"Old man, like this, I'll see if I can help you find a way later."

Upon hearing this, the old woman was very pleasantly surprised and thanked her repeatedly.

Zhou Yu smiled and waved his hands: "Don't be in a hurry to thank the old man, I'm not sure about this either."

"No matter what the result is, the old man is already very grateful for his kindness."

The old woman replied sincerely...
