Hidden Mountain Demon

Chapter 15
At the southern foot of Da Cang Mountain, more than 20 miles above the ground is a small town on earth, dotted along the bank of the big river.

At first, it was just a small settlement gathered by fishermen and boatmen. Later, as more and more people came and boats came and went on the river, some people set up a pier by the river.

Over the past few years, a small town has gradually formed around the wharf.The town is small, without any high walls.

Under the night sky, the clouds were dense, and the moonlight was dim.

Not far from the town, on an inconspicuous piece of land, a mountain crow the size of a millstone lay quietly in the weeds.

Beside the crow's wings, there was a leopard the size of a cat and a gray old dog, all curled up, looking at the town not far away in a quiet and humane manner.

Although it was night, there were still many lights in the town, and the faint light from a few torches swam in the darkness.

Listening carefully, it seems that there are still people running and shouting. It turns out that many people are cleaning up the dried fish and parallel imports in the yard, fearing that it will rain at night and get damp.

Passing through the town is the mighty river, and a small pier stands quietly on the shore.

The birds and beasts on the ground are naturally Chi Zui, Ban Cang and his party originally planned to take a rest after passing through the town, Ban Cang changed into the smallest form, and flew over with Chi Zui on his back.

However, after two experiments in the mountains, it was found helplessly that although Ban Cang shrunk a lot in size, his weight did not decrease at all, and he tried his best with his bare mouth, but he only flew forty or fifty feet away on his back.What's more, now there is another dog monster.

If you swim over, look at the turbulent river, and probably feed the fish and turtles in the water halfway.

In the end, there was no other way, Ban Cang thought that there might be human boats docking at the pier at night to go back to the shed, or he could "borrow" a boat for use, scaring the two monsters who wanted to be eight feet away from humans now.

The route was finalized, and I found a night when it looked like it was going to rain. Thinking that there would be no people on the road, the three set off cautiously, but they didn't expect that those fishermen didn't go home in the middle of the night, and the three could only Crouching in the weeds and struggling next to each other.

In the middle of the night, the night became more and more gloomy, and the dark clouds became even lower. The people in the town finally went back to their homes to look for Duke Zhou.

Chizui flew into the air lightly, turned around, found nothing unusual, flapped its wings in the air a few times.After receiving the previously agreed signal, Ban Cang and Ma Hu didn't dare to delay, and quietly got out from the weeds.

Sneaking all the way, passing through the town, to the pier, a few shacks on the shore to watch the boats, there were long snoring sounds, presumably the people inside were already fast asleep.

The dog demon has the sharpest nose and ears, sneaked forward, sniffed against the night wind, pointed to several boats with people inside, and then, two beasts and one bird dived towards the remaining boats .

Jumping into a small canoe, the three of them looked around and saw nothing unusual. With a wave of Ban Cang's claws, they cut off the rope tied to the shore. The hull quietly sailed away from the pier.

Looking back, the night is dark, and the Da Cang Mountain in the distance looks more and more heavy in the night.

The three struggled to drive thirteen or forty feet away, watching the distance from the shore.Ban Cang asked Chizui and Mahu to withdraw their demonic aura, and supported the whole boat with his own demonic aura.

After doing this twice, watching the opposite bank approaching, only a few dozen feet of water remained.There was already a patter of rain in the air, completely covering up the sound of the boat breaking through the water.

All three were relieved. Although the ground on the other side of the river is wide, there are no large crowds. Just avoid it carefully, but it will take more time.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred. Standing on the bow of the boat, the mahu who was inflating his demonic aura whimpered, and his two front paws pressed his neck and began to roll all over the floor.

As soon as the demonic aura was withdrawn from this side, the pressure on the red mouth on the other side suddenly increased. He couldn't hold a few breaths, the demonic aura couldn't continue, and he collapsed on the boat with a "boom".

Ban Cang was at the stern of the boat, heard the strange movement, and hurried to the front, the demon dog barked and scrambled, his bare mouth seemed to lose all his strength, staring blankly at the water surface, not knowing what was going on.

Ban Cang asked, how could the weak Chizui answer, and raised a wing to point to the water surface.

Looking along, I saw a three-foot tall humanoid old man slowly emerging from the water, with a white beard almost hanging down to his knees, smiling eerily at the three people on the boat.

"kill him!",
Before Ban Cang understood the specific situation, a miserable cry came from behind, and it was the rolling dog Yao Mahu who yelled at Ban Cang.

Ban Cang glanced back, and saw that the dog demon was in a really troublesome situation. For some reason, the thick dog's neck became thin and long, twisting like a snake on the ship's plank, limp and terribly tight.

"Grandma's You Guang, kill him quickly."

The dog demon roared at the weird old man, his eyes were already bloodshot.

Ban Cang didn't hesitate any longer, spewed out a mouthful of evil spirit, swept across the river, rolled up a water arrow, and shot towards the old man.

The weird old man didn't move, his long beard rolled up the river, and he erected a thin transparent barrier in front of him.The water arrow disappeared within the barrier without a sound.

Ban Cang became more and more anxious, but he had no other means to use, so he could only summon up his evil spirit, rolled up more water arrows and shot at the old man.

The dog monster struggled to climb to the side of the boat, holding the dog's head in its two paws, and kept yelling "You Guang, You Guang" at the old man.

"You Guang, You Guang, hurry up and get out, I didn't provoke you." The dog demon barked more and more fiercely.

The old man was still smiling eeriely, without any movement.

All the water arrows shot were blocked by the barrier.The old man was still smiling grimly.Ban Cang wondered if the old man had any other expressions?The scene fell into a stalemate for a while.

Finally, Chizui managed to calm down the evil spirit, gathered a little bit, soared into the air, and flew to the top of the weird old man, and another wave of evil energy rushed down.

Ban Cang also increased his strength.The old man finally couldn't resist, and slowly floated to the surface of the water again.

"Just disappeared like that? What happened?"

Before Ban Cang and Chi Zui spouted some evil spirits to test it out, the dog demon roared anxiously, "Hurry up, hurry up, paddle to the other side, don't worry about it."

Unable to comprehend the strange situation that happened suddenly, seeing that the dog monster seemed to know something, he didn't delay, and listened to the other side first.

Ban Cang and Chi Zui swelled the remaining monster energy in their bodies, and rushed towards the shore desperately.

The weird old man did not appear again, the distance of more than ten feet is not too far, and he arrived in a blink of an eye. As soon as the boat docked, he did not talk to Ban Cang Chizui. The two hind legs, like a human being, frantically ran towards the shore.

Ban Cang and Chizui didn't understand the situation, so they also hurriedly chased after them. After running for twenty or thirty feet, they saw a pile of rocks, and the dog demon went straight over.

After the three hid behind the stone, Ban Cang and Chi Zui looked at the panting dog demon in front of them, not knowing what to ask.

This time, the dog demon's neck didn't grow any longer, it just hung limply.

Looking at the dog monster's breath, he decided, "What is that?" Chizui asked with lingering fear.

"You Guang, there are spirits born in the water. It's so weird."

"Ghosts?" In the mountains before, Mahu also said that there are ghosts in the world, but he only briefly mentioned them, without going into details.

Seeing that the two demons in front of him didn't understand, the dog demon paused, straightened his head, and continued:
"Spirits and monsters are the most weird, unlike plants, trees, birds, and beasts that become monsters. Most of the ghosts have no original image. I don't know where they get some energy, and they become climates, and they have ghosts. They transform into various appearances. The appearance is strange, Behavior and things are strange, and all kinds of abilities are also very weird."

Looking at the two monsters in front of him and nodding, he seemed to understand, and then said: "This water, as time goes by, will produce some ghosts. The deep springs and big pools in the mountains will have celebrations after a long time; There are male ears, there will be mountain crowns in the pond, and there is another kind that lives in the woods in summer and runs into the river in winter, called Zao Jian. The one I met today is Youguang, the worst temperament, when he meets humans and beasts, Then secretly blowing air on the neck, the neck grows when it sees the air, which is extremely weird."

Looking at the slender and soft neck of the dog demon, Ban Cang asked worriedly: "Then your neck?"

"It's pretty quick today. Thanks to what I've heard before, I recognized this monster and named it Po. With the help of my two elder brothers, it didn't take long. I guess it took two days for the neck to recover. These monsters are called Po. Names can usually be eliminated, but today's one, judging by the long beard, should be someone who has been around for a long time."

Although the dog demon is older, Ban Cang and Chi Zui are more capable than him, and the monsters only care about their cultivation skills, so the dog demon calls the two elder brothers in the mountains.

That's the way it is, but at this time Ban Cang also had a thought in his heart, he heard that there are many spirits and monsters in the world, and with strange methods, he might as well meet them in the future, if he doesn't know them, he will inevitably fall into the wrong way.The dog demon is a knowledgeable person, so I will ask more questions in the future.

Finally, there was no danger, crossed the big river, and walked about a hundred miles before entering the mountain.

The two beasts and one bird didn't realize that there was an inexplicable emotion in their hearts.

　It's inconvenient to type on the mobile phone in the car, so I will save it first.
