Octagon's most volume demon slayer

Chapter 13 New Year's Eve
Wang Juan took over the firecrackers, but he was still a little puzzled by Yao Wei's statement: "Aren't the fireworks and firecrackers in the legend expelling the Nian beast? I remember that the name of New Year's Eve came from that. Why do you use firecrackers to attract the Nian beast?" beast?"

Yao Wei explained: "Fireworks and firecrackers are naturally from Nian Beast. But now Nian Beast can't hide, I can't lock it. I need to use firecrackers to make it move, and then I can easily find it."

Wang Juan nodded, expressing his understanding.It's good to leave professional things to professional people, he just needs to cooperate.

Yao Wei took Wang Juan to find an empty and deserted place, and then lit the firecrackers.

There is also the custom of setting off firecrackers on New Year's Eve in Yingzhou Prefecture, but they are always set off at Zishi.It's not time yet, so Wang Juan and Yao Wei had no choice but to do it by themselves.

Wang Juan ignited the firecrackers hanging on the bamboo shoots, held up the bamboo poles, and watched the firecrackers "crackling" and shining, as if he had returned to his childhood in the previous life in a trance.

At that time, his New Year's Eve was always so leisurely, taking advantage of the gap between singing in the Spring Festival Gala, he went out to set off fireworks.

Of course, firecrackers hung on bamboo poles and whips have long been eliminated, but now, he can only play with such things, and the long-pole fireworks in his hands have become "the smoke of the past".

"Wang Siwei, what are you thinking?"

Yao Wei's voice suddenly brought Wang Juan back from his thoughts.

Wang Juan was stunned for a moment, and said, "What's the matter, have you found the Nian beast?"

"How can it be so fast?"

Yao Wei shook her head and said, "It's just that I saw Wang Siwei staring at the firecrackers in a daze, and I was a little curious."

Wang Juan said: "It's nothing, I just remembered some past events."

While talking, the two finished setting off a piece of firecrackers, then changed another string, hung it on the bamboo tip, and lit it.

"Is it your childhood sweetheart?"

Yao Wei asked curiously.

Wang Juan was speechless: "Yao Jimo, what are you thinking?"

Yao Wei said: "That's what it says in the books."

"..."

Wang Juan didn't expect Yao Jimo to have such a hobby, "Yao Jimo likes reading?"

Yao Wei said: "Yes. But I don't like to read serious books, I only like to read miscellaneous books that are not on the table."

Wang Juan nodded and said, "I see."

Yao Wei asked, "Wang Siwei, what are your hobbies?"

"I?"

Wang Juan thought for a while, and said, "I like working... just running errands."

In his previous life, he liked to read books and play games. There was a bookcase at home, and the hosts of the Yusan Family had also been collected.But what is there to say?It's all a thing of the past.

Yao Wei just pretended that Wang Juan didn't want to talk about this topic, so she didn't ask further.

As for Wang Juan's answer, she didn't believe it.

Who likes to work hard if it's not their duty?
"Appeared!"

Yao Wei suddenly collected her mind and looked in one direction.

Wang Juan followed Yao Wei's gaze, but saw that the night was dark in that direction, with no stars and no moon, the outlines of houses and streets were pitch black, and no movement could be seen.

But he still believed in professionalism, and followed Yao Wei in that direction.

They ran for two streets, and almost reached the base of the city wall of Huicheng County, only to see a shadowy thing not far ahead, which became more and more indistinct in the dark night.

Wang Juan seemed to see the distorted air when there was a fire burning.

"Finally found you, come out."

Yao Wei's voice sounded like a resentful wife who had finally found a scumbag who had been in chaos for years.

She stretched out her hand to hold it, and the air in front of her was twisted accordingly, connecting with the shadow of the twisted air in front of her.

Then something was pulled out from the twisted mass.

——It was a golden monster with a face like a lion and a tiger, with horns on the top of its head, and its body was bigger than two horses. Its golden fur moved with the wind, giving people the feeling of running extremely fast.

Is this the Nian Beast?

Wang Juan felt unwell when he saw Nian Beast appearing, as if something was going wrong, and his body became weak, as if a sickness had struck.

"Calm your mind and keep your spirits in check."

Yao Wei grabbed Wang Juan's hand.

Wang Juan felt a heat transfer from Yao Wei's hot palm and exploded inside his body.The uncomfortable feeling instantly weakened by half.

He hastened to follow his words, calmed down, held his original position, and suddenly understood what Yao Jimo meant by the catastrophic disease and time chaos that Yao Jimo had said before.

He seemed to have missed a lot of time just because of this trance, Yao Jimo had let go of his hand at some point, and fought with Nian Beast in one place.

Yao Jimo took out two thin thorns from nowhere, and the thorns shone with dazzling golden light when she swung them.

The Nian beast tossed and turned, it was very agile, and it opened its teeth and claws, and it was also very ferocious.

The movements of Wang Juan's Guannian Beast are beyond the reach of Yao Jimo.Yao Jimo always has the feeling of dancing on the tip of a knife when facing Shangnian Beast, which is full of dangers.

But Yao Jimo bumped the double thorns, and the golden light flourished, sparks were sparked.Whenever Nian Beast faced Sparks, he always seemed to be very frightened, and quickly dodged away, which made Yao Jimo save himself from danger every time.

Wang Juan watched from afar, wanting to come forward to help.But after watching it for a long time, he found that there was no room for him to intervene in this battle.

The strength of Nian Beast far exceeds any monster he has ever encountered, and the realm of Yao Jimo's strength is also much higher than him.

If he joins in without authorization, he will be just a food delivery man, and he can do nothing but trouble Yao Jimo.

Even if he finds an opportunity to use the introversion field, it will not have any effect.

I drove here with Yao Jimo, but I was just responsible for leading the way.Yao Jimo didn't expect that he could be of much help either.

Wang Juan saw the facts clearly, and felt rather unwilling.

But what if you are unwilling?Honestly be a war correspondent.

The battle was fierce in front of him, sparks flew everywhere, and big holes were smashed out on the nearby city walls and ground in a short while.The city guard who guarded the gate came over, but he was too frightened to go forward.

The surrounding residents heard the movement, opened the doors and windows to take a look, and then quickly closed them, too frightened to dare to bubble.It seems that the Huicheng County Government will spend a lot of effort tomorrow to deal with the aftermath.

Gradually, Wang Juan noticed that Yao Wei had the upper hand.She didn't know what supernatural power she had cultivated. The double thorns danced more and more anxiously, and the sparks became stronger and stronger. It seemed that a dazzling sun rose on the ground, and it circled round and round, squeezing the space for the Nian beast to move.

The firelight illuminated Yao Wei extremely brightly, like a fairy dancing in the sun.

"Ow—"

Nian Beast suddenly let out a roar, turned around and jumped out of the city wall.It already had wounds on its body, and it kept bleeding golden blood. Seeing that it couldn't be beaten, it wanted to run away.

Without saying a word, Yao Wei jumped up, pierced the city wall with the double thorns "Ding Ding", and helped her climb over the city wall with two or three strokes.

Seeing this, Wang Juan hurriedly followed.

"Please open the city gate."

The state of Qi training period does not allow him to move around like Yao Wei, so he had to ask the city guard for help.

"oh oh!"

The city guard was a little frightened, but at least he recognized Wang Juan's demon slayer's soap coat, and hurried to open the city gate.

Wang Juan rushed out immediately, but saw Yao Wei standing outside the city, looking in one direction with annoyed expression.

"what happened?"

Wang Juan stepped forward and asked.

Yao Wei said angrily: "It took me three years to find a way to restrain Nian Beast. Now Nian Beast can't beat me, but it runs too fast, I can't catch up!"
