People are in the division of eliminating demons, and martial arts have evolved by themselves

Chapter 126
In the deep and gloomy woods, there are only dim candles and the silhouette of the pale moonlight.

The cry of a weeping woman came from not far ahead.

"Woooooo~~~"

The woman's cry was mixed with the miserable howling mountain wind, it was miserable and chilling.

"It's strange, how come there are still women crying in the middle of the night?" Lao Huang couldn't help frowning.

However, Lao Huang, who is honest and honest by nature, didn't think too much, thinking that it might be a traveler who got lost in the mountains.

After all, the terrain and environment here are complex, if you are not a local, it is really easy to get lost.

In addition, in the middle of the night, in the wilderness, not to mention a woman, even a grown man like myself is a little timid, and it is easy to understand that I was scared and cried.

Lao Huang carried the lantern and walked forward.

through a dense jungle.

A thin woman in white was seen half kneeling on the ground, covering her face and crying.

The cry was so sad that one couldn't help feeling pity in his heart.

"Miss, are you lost?" Old Huang asked kindly.

The woman turned her back to Lao Huang, and when she heard his voice, she stopped crying and murmured: "My child is dead, my child is dead."

When Lao Huang heard this, he couldn't help but sigh.

It seems that this woman's child may have passed away in some accident, which made her unacceptable, so she ran to the wilderness in the middle of the night.

"People cannot be resurrected after death, so please be patient. Do you want me to take you down the mountain?" Old Huang said warmly.

"My child is dead. My child is dead."

However, Lao Huang's kindness did not receive any response, and the woman kept repeating this sentence as if she had lost her mind.

Lao Huang tried a few more words of persuasion, but the woman kept repeating that her child had died.

Men and women are different, and Lao Huang can't just pull her away, he can only leave helplessly.

It didn't take long to go.

His steps stopped suddenly.

In front, there was another weeping woman crying.

Lao Huang's heart was a little hairy, the cry should be behind him, why did it appear in front again?
He took a deep breath and walked cautiously towards the cry.

This time, Lao Huang finally found that something was wrong.

This forest is too quiet~
There was no sound of insects chirping or birds chirping, only the woman's weeping cries kept echoing in the gloomy and dark forest, mixed with the mountain wind like howling of an evil ghost.

Icy.

Repressed.

It seemed breathless.

The seeds of fear germinated in Lao Huang's heart and continued to grow.

He went through a jungle again.

A tingling scene appeared in Lao Huang's eyes.

The woman in white, with her back to him, kept crying.
All of this made Lao Huang feel extremely creepy.

"Ahhh!!!"

He couldn't help screaming in fear, turned around and ran away!
Something is wrong with this woman!
However, in panic, Lao Huang didn't pay attention to his feet, and a pitch-black branch tripped him to the ground.

"Damn!"

Lao Huang held back the severe pain and got up, the terror in his heart made him temporarily forget the pain, just when he was about to get up!
! ! ! !
A woman's face as pale as frost, like white paper appeared in his eyes.

The woman's eyes were full of tenderness, as if she was looking at her own child.

"Son, so you are here."

"This time, I won't let you go~"

The woman's voice was so gentle and kind, but it fell into Lao Huang's ears, like the whisper of an evil ghost.

"No!!!!"

Lao Huang's screams stopped abruptly.

The forest returned to dead silence.

In addition to the eerie whistling mountain wind, there was also the sound of chewing bones, echoing in the forest.

Three days later.

Tianshui Mansion Yagong Hall was solemn and quiet.

Fang Zhongzheng, the prefect, was a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, with an extraordinary appearance, and he sat on the main seat with his brows tightly frowned.

On either side sat a demon slayer.

It was Zhao Changkong and Lu Yu, the only two middle-level demon slayers left in Tianshui Mansion.

Originally, even though there were no high-level demon slayers, there were still six intermediate-level demon slayers.

But two years later, only these two remained.

Among them, Lu Yu was later promoted from a low-level demon slayer.

In the past few years, the Department of Exorcising Demons of Huangzhou has only sent over a dozen low-level demon exterminations, and now they are all dead.

"Brother Zhao, Brother Lu, the water monster issue has just been resolved, but something happened at the Tianshui Mine." Fang Zhongzheng sighed slightly.

Frowning for a long time caused deep nasolabial folds on his forehead.

Zhao Changkong had already expected it in his heart, and said softly, "What's going on?"

"In recent days, dozens of miners have mysteriously disappeared on their way back."

"On the first night, only two or three miners disappeared, but they didn't attract attention."

"But on the second night, more than a dozen miners disappeared at once. In order for the mine to continue to operate, the supervisor of the mine insisted on suppressing the news."

"But on the third night. That is, last night. More than 30 miners disappeared directly. Now even the supervisor panicked and fled back to Fucheng. Those villages composed of miners were also panicked, and they were willing to go to the mines at all. field work."

"Just now. In order to prevent any further accidents, I have sent people to evacuate these miners' villages and place them in the open space in the south of the city."

"But the mine is the mainstay of the Tianshui Prefecture's economy, and if it stops working for a day, it will cause heavy losses. This matter must be resolved as soon as possible."

After Fang Zhongzheng finished speaking so much in one breath, he was a little out of breath.

On this day, the water mine is rich in iron ore, and the quality is excellent.

Zhao Changkong pondered and said: "Lu Yu was seriously injured by the water monster and has not recovered yet. Let me handle this matter."

Lu Yu's face was pale, and his body smelled strongly of medicine. He said, "Brother Zhao, don't be careless. This monster swallowed dozens of lives overnight, and at least it is a Yin-level existence."

Zhao Changkong also understood this truth, nodded and said: "Don't worry, I'm just going to investigate the situation first, and if there is any danger, I will retreat immediately. I will make plans after your injury improves."

Only then did Lu Yu feel relieved.

The day.

Zhao Changkong went to the mine alone.

But the next day, he still didn't come back.

Lu Yu felt something was wrong, so regardless of the injuries on his body, he took someone to search for them himself, and finally found Zhao Changkong who was unconscious and seriously injured in a village.

After being brought back to the government office, after being treated by a doctor, Zhao Changkong was finally relieved of the danger of his life, but there was no sign of waking up.

When Fang Zhongzheng, who came to visit for inquiries, heard the news, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his expression was dull.

Originally, there were fewer demon slayers.

Today, one of the two main players is seriously injured and the other is unconscious.
The matter of the mine needs to be resolved urgently.

He found Lu Yu, and the two came to a secret room to discuss countermeasures.
