Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 53 The Knife in the Noodle Shop
Li Mazi felt something was wrong. Don't ordinary guests usually choose to sit at the nearest empty table? Why would they go to the corner table with someone else?
Without any hesitation, Li Mazi wanted to overturn the table and run away, but after he tried hard, he found that the table was firmly fixed on the ground and did not move at all!

With one hand pressed on the table, Li Mazi couldn't lift it with his little strength!

"Tsk, the reaction is quick, but it's a pity that he still has to die!"

Another person next to him spoke sinisterly while raising his hand to grab Li Mazi's throat. The nails on his hand actually popped out in an instant, becoming an inch long and shining like black metal.

Li Mazi also got angry, he touched his waist, a short knife came into his hand, and he chopped at the hand that grabbed him. At the same time, he kicked the table to make himself fall back, trying to gain some distance and wait for an opportunity to escape.

when!
Li Mazi's broken knife chopped on the opponent's hand, or it could be said that the opponent raised his hand and deliberately blocked his knife.

However, the scene of chopping that should have caused flesh to be torn apart did not appear. Instead, the dagger was held in the hand as if it were clamped by pliers, and was crushed to pieces in the blink of an eye!
Li Mazi was shocked and was about to get up and run away, but before he could turn around, another hand grabbed him!
I'm going to die!
Li Mazi cursed inwardly and watched the clawed hand grab his neck.

However, before Li Mazi could sigh about the moment of life and death, a flash of knife light suddenly appeared, and it came out diagonally from the side, arriving first, and actually cut Li Mazi's throat just before the sharp claws grabbed it.

Ah!
A scream was heard, and then purple blood spurted out from the broken part.

A flesh palm shattered a steel knife? That depends on whose knife it was!

Li Mazi's ordinary short knife was easy to break, but the oxtail knife, which was wrapped in true energy and chopped with perfect sword skills after being blessed with [Spiritual Light], was a different story.

No matter what kind of palm you have, it must be cut off!

Li Mazi was dazzled for just a moment, and then a figure in a black martial arts robe with red patterns appeared in front of him.

It’s Master Yang!
Master Yang is here to save me!

Li Mazi's heart, which had been doomed, suddenly became clear.

Before Li Mazi could react, Yang Qian, who had returned, was already fighting with two short and strong men in the noodle shop with a knife.

This was the first time that Li Mazi saw Yang Qian draw his sword and kill at close range, and he was really shocked. The two short and strong men who seemed to him to be extremely powerful and could break steel knives with their bare hands were now being beaten by Yang Qian, who was outnumbered by two.

His movements were strange, changeable and erratic, like a swirling evil wind, completely unpredictable.

Even if Li Mazi stayed out of the matter, he had no idea where Yang Qian would appear next, not to mention how the two short and strong men who had already started roaring strange noises felt at this moment.

Maybe it's like falling into a mud pit, with no strength left? Li Mazi thought.

But the truth is far more despairing than Li Mazi's guess of "being stuck in a quagmire".

The two short and strong men felt that no matter how they attacked or blocked, they could not escape the coverage of the terrifying long sword. The slash of the sword, which did not seem to be fast, would always suddenly turn and come at another angle that was completely unexpected at first.

Moreover, the true energy attached to the knife was extremely condensed. Once it hit anyone, their skin and flesh would be torn apart, making it impossible to block it.

In just a few moments, the two short and strong men were covered with wounds, some of which were three to five inches long, and purple blood was flowing all over the ground.

A normal person would have collapsed long ago after bleeding so much. But these two men were still screaming and wailing and refused to surrender.

At this time, Li Mazi had already figured out the clue. Whose blood was purple? These two guys were not human at all, they were evil bugs! Roar!

Finally, after Yang Qian cut off one of the short and strong men's legs at the knee with a knife, the other party let out a beast roar, and at the same time, his face, which originally looked normal except for the dark skin, immediately cracked inch by inch, revealing his true appearance underneath.

"Tsk, it turned out to be a monkey. No wonder the smell on its body is much lighter than other insects. You almost fooled me!"

Yang Qian kept the long sword in his hand and cut off one of the legs. Seeing that one of them revealed his true face and lost the ability to move, he would naturally not give up easily.

His body spun like the wind, and the oxtail knife in his hand was like an antelope hanging its horns, leaving no trace. The blade cut horizontally, breaking the skin and breaking the bones. Then with a flick, a black-haired monkey head the size of a grapefruit was chopped off and flew out a few feet, right into the arms of Li Mazi who was sitting paralyzed on the ground.

This is a lot of experience, much more than the dream corpse bugs, jumping dogs, and bandits that Yang Qian had killed before. No wonder he was able to break a steel knife with his bare hands just now. He must be much stronger.

After killing one, the remaining one had its arm chopped off by Yang Qian before, and was already at the end of its strength. Yang Qian's plan was to capture it alive and pry open its mouth to see if it was as he guessed, that the Song family wanted Li Mazi dead. With this piece of evidence in hand, many things would become easier.

But before Yang Qian could cut off the limbs of the remaining black-haired monkey and capture it alive, there was a sudden sound of dense footsteps outside the noodle shop, followed by a sudden and unexpected sound of a string!
Not good! When Yang Qian heard the sound of the string, he knew it was a large crossbow, not the hand crossbow used by government officials!

The crossbow arrows are half a foot long and as thick as a little finger.

The large crossbow was only used by the garrison soldiers, which was much larger than the hand crossbow. The crossbow arrow was as thick as an adult's thumb. The power of the two was very different.

A hand crossbow can only shoot people, but a large crossbow can penetrate armor!
Yang Qian had no way to block the powerful crossbow arrow, so he could only dodge it. However, the crossbow arrow was not aimed at him but at the black-haired monkey that was facing away from the arrow!

Is this a monster trying to steal my things?!

Yang Qian was furious, but it was too late. He could only use the knife in his hand to change from capturing to beheading, and just managed to chop off the black-haired monkey's head. The next moment, the crossbow arrow pierced into the black-haired monkey's vest, leaving a big hole and then piercing through the body from the heart!

Such power! Yang Qian's eyelids jumped when he dodged to the side. If he had insisted on capturing the black-haired monkey alive, he would have been shot by the crossbow arrow. He didn't know whether he would die or not, but he would definitely be seriously injured and there was no way he could escape!

Following the prompt on the experience panel, Yang Qian stared outside the door and saw a team of more than ten garrison soldiers arriving. A captain in the middle was holding a large crossbow and smiling at Yang Qian who was looking at him.

Before entering the door, the voices arrived.

"Oh, there are brothers from the government office in there. I almost hurt you by mistake. I'm sorry!

All right, now that all the evildoers have been killed, this brother from the government office and the man on the ground, come back with us to the garrison and briefly explain what happened today so that we can go through the formalities.

please!"
