The Demon Soul is Coming
Chapter 289: Demonic shadows...
(, monthly ticket, recommendation ticket, meal ticket, vegetable ticket...)
As soon as Liu Sangfang turned over and stood up, Xiaohuang beside him suddenly screamed: "Master, don't, don't..."
Liu Sang turned her head and saw her waving her hands in her sleep, as if she was resisting something with all her strength.
Hey, what did I do to you in my dream?
Xiaohuang has been wondering why Fu Ma Ye touched her head, is it implying that I should take the initiative?He said he wouldn't bully me, but he touched my head again.
Just like at that time, he said that he would not do the kind of thing that hides the girls' clothes, but he obviously went to steal the girls' clothes, and then he touched my head and asked me to take my own Giving him obscene clothes...
The little girl thought too much, she couldn't fall asleep anyway, she raised her head quietly, and saw Fu Ma was sleeping soundly, she didn't know if he was pretending to be asleep, after a long time like this, she finally fell asleep in a daze , and started to have strange dreams, in which Master Fu Ma pressed her to the ground, and no matter how hard she struggled, she wanted to take off her clothes, so she screamed in fright.
Unexpectedly, Xiaohuang would be frightened suddenly, so Liu Sang quickly hugged her and comforted her.
There was a big hole in the wooden wall next to it, and the roar of Zhaowu's sister-in-law could be heard: "Brother-in-law, what are you doing?"
Liu Sang turned her head to look, and saw her sister-in-law wearing a skirt and a red cloak, standing at the entrance of the cave with an oil lamp, looking at him fiercely.
Hey hey, wrong, you are angry at the wrong person.
Apparently, the sister-in-law was awakened by Madam Yue's alarm, and turned over. Before she could figure out what happened, she heard Xiaohuang's scream.He thought he was going to rape Xiaohuang, but Madam Yue found out, so he kicked the wall bitterly.
The beautiful girl stared at him through the dim light, saw him sleeping on the ground with Xiaohuang, and Xiaohuang was struggling desperately in his arms, she believed in her own judgment, this dead brother-in-law, even if sister gave Xiaohuang to you, You can't disregard Xiaohuang's own wishes and bully her, you are too scumbag.
Put the oil lamp on the ground.Roll up your sleeves and go beat him up.
But Xia Yingchen's clear and faint voice came from above: "Zhaowu, stop making trouble, come to the deck."
That's right, why don't you hurry up?Want to hit someone before you figure it out?
Xia Yingchen's voice came again: "Husband... what did you do to Xiaohuang?"
Liu Sang was in tears... I didn't do anything.
Xiaohuang also woke up, her eyes wide open, she didn't understand the situation.
Liu Sang stood up in his clothes, took Xiaohuang, followed Xia Zhaowu, and hurried up to the rear deck.
The merchant ship was still going down the river.Mrs. Yue stood there quietly with her cloud bun, cotton skirt, and jacket.Watching the water behind.
Xia Yingchen held the thunder sword, standing beside her like a green bamboo.
Xia Zhaowu said: "Master, sister, what happened?"
Liu Sang said: "Do you even need to ask? Just now, an enemy wanted to sneak up from the bottom of the water and was discovered by Madam."
Madam Yue said indifferently: "There is a lot of monster energy."
Xia Yingchen walked forward: "Have they retreated?"
Mrs. Yue said: "They were going to attack the shipwreck, but before they approached, I warned them. They saw that their plan was not going to work. They didn't want to attack by force, so they retreated for the time being."
Liu Sang and Xia Yingchen looked at each other, thinking, did those monsters come here for a change of heart?
Liu Sang looked up at the sky: "It's almost dawn."
Xia Yingchen nodded: "Since they want to use sneak attacks and plots, they obviously don't have the confidence to win our side. Now that they have retreated, they should not come back in a short time. Even so, we still have to be careful."
The owner of the ship stumbled up and climbed up: "Guest officers, what happened?"
Xia Yingchen said coldly: "Don't worry about the boatman, you can just sail the boat and other things. We will take care of it."
The captain was sweating coldly, secretly regretting that he shouldn't have accepted the business in spite of money.
On the bank behind, snakes came out of the river. These snakes were thick and long, with their mouths open, and naked women came out.
The snake girl meanders ashore, and on the shore, an old woman with a double-headed snake body is waiting there, followed by a flower demon.
The flower demon is naturally Yanweilin's Ju Niang, she said bitterly: "Mrs. Yue is really powerful, she has not even gotten close, and she has discovered it."
Grandma Cen made a sound with both heads: "If she doesn't even have this ability, how can she make such a big name?"
All the snake girls fell in front of Grandma Cen, Ju Niang said: "Grandma, what should I do now?"
Grandma Cen said lightly: "It's not that I'm afraid of Mrs. Yue, it's just that we will fight to the death with Mrs. Yue and Xia Yingchen. The old spider monster, the mirror and other two groups are guarding behind, making the fisherman's profit, and we have no benefit."
Ju Niang snorted angrily, she failed to attack Xia Zhaowu, but was seriously injured by Madam Yue, she hated Madam Yue to the bone, but now that the three parties are entangled, they Yanweilin is really the weakest party, they wanted to take advantage of the dark moon , The shipwreck raided, snatched the turning point, and escaped by taking advantage of the great rivers and lakes here, so that the boss and others could not find their shadows. As a result, Madam Yue noticed them before they got close to the merchant ship.
She said: "Hei Wutian and Wantian Cave have helpers arriving again. If things go on like this, we will have no chance."
Hei Wutian and Wantian Cave are both powerful in Yangliangzhou. For example, the owner of Wantian Cave, Venerable Wantian, is one of the four famous demon kings in the demon world. The "Emperor" Jiang Kuangnan and Daqi's royal family were in command, and they didn't dare to make matters worse, so they could only send people to sneak in and plot secretly.
A ray of light shines from the mountains.
Grandma Cen suddenly sneered: "Who?"
A strange laughter came from the dark place: "Grandma Cen is really amazing."
A spider demon with eight long legs, a human face and a shell body crawled out slowly, followed by a dwarf boy with a big head and a small body.
Grandma Cen said coldly, "So it's the two of you."
The old spider monster and the mirror from Wantian Cave came.
Ju Niang snorted, "What are you doing here?"
The old monster spider said: "Old monster, I came here just to make a deal with you?"
Grandma Cen said, "What deal?"
The old spider said: "I know that grandma has strong magic power. Even Mrs. Yue from Lingwu Mountain may not be regarded by grandma. But Mrs. Yue is Mrs. Yue after all. No matter how powerful grandma's mana is, if she wants to take it away without anyone noticing. It is still impossible to turn the heart-turning lamp. As long as you make a movement, we and Hei Qutian will definitely find out that even if you snatch the heart-turning lamp, it will be a waste of work."
Grandma Cen said, "So what?"
The old monster spider smiled and said: "So, old monster, I plan to make a deal with you, and we will join forces. Let's grab the heart-changing lamp together."
Ju Niang sneered: "There is only one heart-changing lamp, but who does it belong to afterwards?"
The old monster spider said: "Of course it belongs to my Wantian Cave."
Ju Niang snorted angrily, and was about to get angry, but Grandma Cen stopped her, staring at the spider with both heads: "After the matter is done, what good will we have?"
The old monster spider waved his hand, and the dwarf boy named Mirror threw out a list, and Grandma Cen took it casually, and checked it carefully under the rising sun that jumped out of the mountain.
The old spider said: "This is after the work is done. Is the reward we gave Yan Weilin, grandma satisfied?"
Grandma Cen looked at the list.He secretly thought: "Wan Tiandong's skill is not small. The key is that if we don't cooperate with them, it will be difficult for us to get the heart-changing lamp. If we join hands with each other, although the heart-changing lamp belongs to them, we will eventually get it." Good point. However, they should have no choice but to cooperate with us. No matter how powerful Venerable Wantian is, he can't come to Yangzhou at this moment, and the strength of Heiqutian is far above Wantian Cave. If it weren't for Wantian Cave Venerable Wan Tian who rebelled from Hei Wutian back then was sitting in the town, and he had already been wiped out by Hei Wutian. The longer it dragged on, the more people Hei Wutian would rush to come, and the chance of Wantian Cave winning the heart-changing lamp became slimmer . have to cooperate with us first.”
The two heads smiled coldly: "Forget it, as long as you keep your word."
At the moment, the two parties are discussing together...
The sky was completely bright, and the merchant ship continued to head south.
Although those monsters will not attack during the day.However, Xia Yingchen and the others would naturally not relax easily, and kept vigilant at all times.
The point is, they still don't know where those monsters come from, whether their purpose is really a turning point, or there are other reasons.
When in Taoqiu, Yanweilin's Chrysanthemum once attacked Mrs. Yue and Xia Zhaowu, so is the enemy this time Yanweilin again?Or is it related to King Baishen and his mastermind behind the scenes?
There are too few clues to make a judgment. Even Liu Sang didn't know where to start the investigation, so he had to take a step at a time.
At noon, Xia Zhaowu was forcing Liu Sang again, telling him not to bully Xiaohuang.
Liu Sang said angrily, "I didn't bully her at all, okay?"
Xia Zhaowu put her hands on her waist: "Then why did she yell no no last night?"
Liu Sang said: "Is there anything I can do about her having nightmares?"
Xiaohuang said timidly: "Master really didn't bully me."
Liu Sang said: "Really? Even she said so."
Xia Zhaowu said bitterly: "She dare not say that she was bullied by you."
Liu Sang thought bitterly, if you wrong me so much again, I will bully your master... She dare not say it anyway.
In the evening, the merchant ship stopped at a small town by the Sanhua River.
Originally, he wanted to travel day and night, but now that he was being targeted by monsters of unknown origin, he naturally had to be more cautious. Humans and monsters have always been incompatible. In Daqi Township, where there is a large population, those monsters would not dare to be rampant.
While the others were resting, Liu Sang asked Xiaoying to carry him with her Sky Cherry Sword, flying around while searching.
Her Tianying Sword is really miraculous, it can actually transform into a ball of sword energy, wrap them around them, and fly quickly in the air, the Yu Jian in those swordsman novels, it is just like this.
Liu Sang is now certain that Xiaoying said that she was swallowed by a strange snake, and that was probably Yanweilin's snake demon, but what happened at that time, what did those monsters say around her, But she couldn't figure it out, and was eaten in a daze.
This is also impossible, the baby is really counted according to the time of birth, in fact, the age is not too young, she was born in the star realm more than 300 years ago, but most of the time, she was locked in the star realm alone, She can't come out at all, and occasionally she is brought to the world, like a puppet, she does what others tell her to do, she has no independent opinions, and once she leaves others, she can't do anything.
Sword Qi enveloped them. With a "whoosh" it landed on a hilltop.
Although I turned around a lot, I couldn't find the traces of those monsters. Although Liu Sang didn't have much hope at first, after all, those monsters didn't want to be discovered easily. They must have hidden very deeply along the way. It wasn't them. This way you can find it by turning around.
But you can't sit still like this.
Liu Sang really doesn't like this kind of situation where he is in the light and the enemy is in the dark, and he can't figure out the shadow of the enemy.I can only wait for the feeling of being attacked.
Thinking of this, his heart suddenly moved.
Monsters are monsters, and they are different from human beings in many ways. If Xiaoying had encountered those monsters before Meiyue, then they followed them, not once or twice, but they entered Taoqiu a few days ago and let them They just can't move.Only the flower demon Chrysanthemum can sneak into Taoqiu without anyone noticing by relying on the skill of walking on the ground, but she can't steal a chicken and lose a lot of rice.
If the tree is hidden in the forest.It is naturally difficult to find people hiding in the bustling city, but unlike Yangliangzhou, Yangzhou was not the territory of the monster race in the first place, and the difference between monsters and humans is too great. There are obviously not a few monsters, so many monsters.Impossible to hide nothing.
Where can I find them?
Thinking of this, Liu Sang immediately asked Xiaoying to take him back to the city.
In the city, in the backyard of the county mansion.
An old man in his 50s led Liu Sang through the back door and quietly entered the side room of the yamen where the documents were placed.
This old man is the master of the county government.
Liu Sang led Xiaoying around the study room. There were too many documents, and he didn't bother to check them one by one.Ask the teacher directly.
The teacher said: "Most of the nearby counties are peaceful, even fights and murders rarely happen. The yamen usually deal with them, but it's just petty theft. If you want to talk about big things..."
Liu Sang cut it off: "I'm not asking about big things. It's about strange things. Is there anything strange going on nearby, even if it's just rumors from the countryside."
The so-called money can turn ghosts, Daqi has been in power for decades, it is the most clear time, especially compared with Hezhou, which is currently in war, it can be called a peaceful and prosperous age, even so, greed for money is still a human thing. The nature of xing, especially this kind of dance, usually has no hope of making it to the list. In order to make a living, scholars who have fallen into the ranks of Sun Shan enter the yamen to work as masters. There is no room for promotion, and they are far more greedy than ordinary officials.
Now that the master has already collected the money, he will naturally do his best. After thinking for a while, he said: "If you talk about strange things, there have been two incidents recently. One is in Pu Village in the northeast. Someone saw two people who were struck to death by lightning. The fox, the villagers are ignorant, they all said that the two foxes wanted to cultivate to become immortals, but they couldn't survive the thunder disaster. The local village officials reported it as a strange incident, because it was the fox who died, not a human being, so naturally no one Treat it as one thing, but record it in a file, in case there is nothing to record in the county annals, add something to the chat."
Liu Sang thought in his heart: "I remember Tweety said that the so-called fox demon wants to survive the thunder disaster, but it is just a wild talk in the countryside. The foxes that were struck to death by lightning were basically killed by the natural enemy of the fox clan." Beast. Like the fox clan, thunder beasts have three souls and six souls, but compared to the fox clan, they are fewer in number and more hidden, and ordinary people don't even know that this kind of monster clan exists."
They took a map, checked it out, and found Napu Village, where they had indeed passed by in the past two days.
Could it be that there are thunder beasts hidden among those monsters?
Different from Baifeng Kingdom, Daqi implements the system of prefectures and counties, with one level governing the other. Although the city is not big, it is the only place where the north-south river must pass because it faces the Sanhua River, which leads directly to Zhenze. It is also designated as a county seat, and some surrounding counties and many villages are under its jurisdiction.
In these county towns and villages, when incidents occur, they must be reported level by level. In fact, in this peaceful and prosperous age, many villages do not have a few major incidents throughout the year, so most of the reports are trivial. No one noticed, just jotted down a file.
But for Liu Sang, these "little things" are exactly what he needs to know.
He asked, "What's the other thing?"
The teacher said: "A few days ago, a child disappeared in a village in the east. The whole village searched everywhere, but they couldn't find him. Later, a master of the Taoist Shenxiao Sect passed by and said that there was a demon spirit remaining at the entrance of the village. , that child might have been eaten by a monster."
Liu Sang's heart moved, and he asked, "Where is that expert now?"
The teacher said: "The tall man has a bad temper. When he found out that there was a monster, he immediately became angry and went searching for the monster. Although he doesn't know where he is now, he should still be in the east."
At that moment, Liu Sang took Xiaoying and left the county office...
The merchant ship was docked at the pier, but Xia Yingchen and the others stayed in the most luxurious inn in the city.
The reason why I chose this place was not only to live comfortably, but also because those monsters should not dare to do it in such a crowded place even if they have schemes.
Even if it is a monster, if it provokes anger and resentment in the territory of Daqi, and angers the royal family of Daqi, they will definitely not be able to please.
Liu Sang went back to the inn and discussed with Xia Yingchen behind closed doors. That night, he let Xiaoying carry him away from the city with sword energy.
On the second day, neither Liu Sang nor Xiaoying came back, and Xia Yingchen was not in a hurry, just wandering around in the city.
After two days like this, she waited until someone sent a letter, and then she started to set off, took her sister, Mrs. Yue, and the maid on board the boat, and went down the Sanhua River to Zhenze.
As soon as the merchant ship left the county, a few phantoms quietly left in the dark.
The merchant ship drove all the way on the river, and in the evening, it passed between the mountains and gorge.
Madam Yue and Xia Yingchen stood on the deck, looking at the cliffs on both sides.
Although it is the turn of autumn and winter, the sky is cold and the ground is cold, and most of the birds and animals are hidden in the caves, but it is really too quiet here.
Xia Yingchen sneered and said, "They really can't wait any longer."
Madam Yue said indifferently: "Those who come are not kind, and those who are kind don't come, it's better to be careful."
While speaking, a jet of water exploded ahead, like a giant dragon, charging straight towards the merchant ship...
……
As soon as Liu Sangfang turned over and stood up, Xiaohuang beside him suddenly screamed: "Master, don't, don't..."
Liu Sang turned her head and saw her waving her hands in her sleep, as if she was resisting something with all her strength.
Hey, what did I do to you in my dream?
Xiaohuang has been wondering why Fu Ma Ye touched her head, is it implying that I should take the initiative?He said he wouldn't bully me, but he touched my head again.
Just like at that time, he said that he would not do the kind of thing that hides the girls' clothes, but he obviously went to steal the girls' clothes, and then he touched my head and asked me to take my own Giving him obscene clothes...
The little girl thought too much, she couldn't fall asleep anyway, she raised her head quietly, and saw Fu Ma was sleeping soundly, she didn't know if he was pretending to be asleep, after a long time like this, she finally fell asleep in a daze , and started to have strange dreams, in which Master Fu Ma pressed her to the ground, and no matter how hard she struggled, she wanted to take off her clothes, so she screamed in fright.
Unexpectedly, Xiaohuang would be frightened suddenly, so Liu Sang quickly hugged her and comforted her.
There was a big hole in the wooden wall next to it, and the roar of Zhaowu's sister-in-law could be heard: "Brother-in-law, what are you doing?"
Liu Sang turned her head to look, and saw her sister-in-law wearing a skirt and a red cloak, standing at the entrance of the cave with an oil lamp, looking at him fiercely.
Hey hey, wrong, you are angry at the wrong person.
Apparently, the sister-in-law was awakened by Madam Yue's alarm, and turned over. Before she could figure out what happened, she heard Xiaohuang's scream.He thought he was going to rape Xiaohuang, but Madam Yue found out, so he kicked the wall bitterly.

Put the oil lamp on the ground.Roll up your sleeves and go beat him up.
But Xia Yingchen's clear and faint voice came from above: "Zhaowu, stop making trouble, come to the deck."
That's right, why don't you hurry up?Want to hit someone before you figure it out?
Xia Yingchen's voice came again: "Husband... what did you do to Xiaohuang?"
Liu Sang was in tears... I didn't do anything.
Xiaohuang also woke up, her eyes wide open, she didn't understand the situation.
Liu Sang stood up in his clothes, took Xiaohuang, followed Xia Zhaowu, and hurried up to the rear deck.
The merchant ship was still going down the river.Mrs. Yue stood there quietly with her cloud bun, cotton skirt, and jacket.Watching the water behind.
Xia Yingchen held the thunder sword, standing beside her like a green bamboo.
Xia Zhaowu said: "Master, sister, what happened?"
Liu Sang said: "Do you even need to ask? Just now, an enemy wanted to sneak up from the bottom of the water and was discovered by Madam."
Madam Yue said indifferently: "There is a lot of monster energy."
Xia Yingchen walked forward: "Have they retreated?"
Mrs. Yue said: "They were going to attack the shipwreck, but before they approached, I warned them. They saw that their plan was not going to work. They didn't want to attack by force, so they retreated for the time being."

On the bank behind, snakes came out of the river. These snakes were thick and long, with their mouths open, and naked women came out.
The snake girl meanders ashore, and on the shore, an old woman with a double-headed snake body is waiting there, followed by a flower demon.
The flower demon is naturally Yanweilin's Ju Niang, she said bitterly: "Mrs. Yue is really powerful, she has not even gotten close, and she has discovered it."
Grandma Cen made a sound with both heads: "If she doesn't even have this ability, how can she make such a big name?"
All the snake girls fell in front of Grandma Cen, Ju Niang said: "Grandma, what should I do now?"
Grandma Cen said lightly: "It's not that I'm afraid of Mrs. Yue, it's just that we will fight to the death with Mrs. Yue and Xia Yingchen. The old spider monster, the mirror and other two groups are guarding behind, making the fisherman's profit, and we have no benefit."

As a result, Madam Yue noticed them before they got close to the merchant ship.
She said: "Hei Wutian and Wantian Cave have helpers arriving again. If things go on like this, we will have no chance."
Hei Wutian and Wantian Cave are both powerful in Yangliangzhou. For example, the owner of Wantian Cave, Venerable Wantian, is one of the four famous demon kings in the demon world. The "Emperor" Jiang Kuangnan and Daqi's royal family were in command, and they didn't dare to make matters worse, so they could only send people to sneak in and plot secretly.
A ray of light shines from the mountains.
Grandma Cen suddenly sneered: "Who?"
A strange laughter came from the dark place: "Grandma Cen is really amazing."
A spider demon with eight long legs, a human face and a shell body crawled out slowly, followed by a dwarf boy with a big head and a small body.
Grandma Cen said coldly, "So it's the two of you."
The old spider monster and the mirror from Wantian Cave came.
Ju Niang snorted, "What are you doing here?"
The old monster spider said: "Old monster, I came here just to make a deal with you?"
Grandma Cen said, "What deal?"
The old spider said: "I know that grandma has strong magic power. Even Mrs. Yue from Lingwu Mountain may not be regarded by grandma. But Mrs. Yue is Mrs. Yue after all. No matter how powerful grandma's mana is, if she wants to take it away without anyone noticing. It is still impossible to turn the heart-turning lamp. As long as you make a movement, we and Hei Qutian will definitely find out that even if you snatch the heart-turning lamp, it will be a waste of work."
Grandma Cen said, "So what?"
The old monster spider smiled and said: "So, old monster, I plan to make a deal with you, and we will join forces. Let's grab the heart-changing lamp together."
Ju Niang sneered: "There is only one heart-changing lamp, but who does it belong to afterwards?"
The old monster spider said: "Of course it belongs to my Wantian Cave."
Ju Niang snorted angrily, and was about to get angry, but Grandma Cen stopped her, staring at the spider with both heads: "After the matter is done, what good will we have?"
The old monster spider waved his hand, and the dwarf boy named Mirror threw out a list, and Grandma Cen took it casually, and checked it carefully under the rising sun that jumped out of the mountain.
The old spider said: "This is after the work is done. Is the reward we gave Yan Weilin, grandma satisfied?"
Grandma Cen looked at the list.He secretly thought: "Wan Tiandong's skill is not small. The key is that if we don't cooperate with them, it will be difficult for us to get the heart-changing lamp. If we join hands with each other, although the heart-changing lamp belongs to them, we will eventually get it." Good point. However, they should have no choice but to cooperate with us. No matter how powerful Venerable Wantian is, he can't come to Yangzhou at this moment, and the strength of Heiqutian is far above Wantian Cave. If it weren't for Wantian Cave Venerable Wan Tian who rebelled from Hei Wutian back then was sitting in the town, and he had already been wiped out by Hei Wutian. The longer it dragged on, the more people Hei Wutian would rush to come, and the chance of Wantian Cave winning the heart-changing lamp became slimmer . have to cooperate with us first.”
The two heads smiled coldly: "Forget it, as long as you keep your word."
At the moment, the two parties are discussing together...
The sky was completely bright, and the merchant ship continued to head south.

Where can I find them?
Thinking of this, Liu Sang immediately asked Xiaoying to take him back to the city.
In the city, in the backyard of the county mansion.
An old man in his 50s led Liu Sang through the back door and quietly entered the side room of the yamen where the documents were placed.
This old man is the master of the county government.
Liu Sang led Xiaoying around the study room. There were too many documents, and he didn't bother to check them one by one.Ask the teacher directly.
The teacher said: "Most of the nearby counties are peaceful, even fights and murders rarely happen. The yamen usually deal with them, but it's just petty theft. If you want to talk about big things..."
Liu Sang cut it off: "I'm not asking about big things. It's about strange things. Is there anything strange going on nearby, even if it's just rumors from the countryside."
The so-called money can turn ghosts, Daqi has been in power for decades, it is the most clear time, especially compared with Hezhou, which is currently in war, it can be called a peaceful and prosperous age, even so, greed for money is still a human thing. The nature of xing, especially this kind of dance, usually has no hope of making it to the list. In order to make a living, scholars who have fallen into the ranks of Sun Shan enter the yamen to work as masters. There is no room for promotion, and they are far more greedy than ordinary officials.
Now that the master has already collected the money, he will naturally do his best. After thinking for a while, he said: "If you talk about strange things, there have been two incidents recently. One is in Pu Village in the northeast. Someone saw two people who were struck to death by lightning. The fox, the villagers are ignorant, they all said that the two foxes wanted to cultivate to become immortals, but they couldn't survive the thunder disaster. The local village officials reported it as a strange incident, because it was the fox who died, not a human being, so naturally no one Treat it as one thing, but record it in a file, in case there is nothing to record in the county annals, add something to the chat."
Liu Sang thought in his heart: "I remember Tweety said that the so-called fox demon wants to survive the thunder disaster, but it is just a wild talk in the countryside. The foxes that were struck to death by lightning were basically killed by the natural enemy of the fox clan." Beast. Like the fox clan, thunder beasts have three souls and six souls, but compared to the fox clan, they are fewer in number and more hidden, and ordinary people don't even know that this kind of monster clan exists."
They took a map, checked it out, and found Napu Village, where they had indeed passed by in the past two days.
Could it be that there are thunder beasts hidden among those monsters?
Different from Baifeng Kingdom, Daqi implements the system of prefectures and counties, with one level governing the other. Although the city is not big, it is the only place where the north-south river must pass because it faces the Sanhua River, which leads directly to Zhenze. It is also designated as a county seat, and some surrounding counties and many villages are under its jurisdiction.
In these county towns and villages, when incidents occur, they must be reported level by level. In fact, in this peaceful and prosperous age, many villages do not have a few major incidents throughout the year, so most of the reports are trivial. No one noticed, just jotted down a file.
But for Liu Sang, these "little things" are exactly what he needs to know.
He asked, "What's the other thing?"
The teacher said: "A few days ago, a child disappeared in a village in the east. The whole village searched everywhere, but they couldn't find him. Later, a master of the Taoist Shenxiao Sect passed by and said that there was a demon spirit remaining at the entrance of the village. , that child might have been eaten by a monster."
Liu Sang's heart moved, and he asked, "Where is that expert now?"
The teacher said: "The tall man has a bad temper. When he found out that there was a monster, he immediately became angry and went searching for the monster. Although he doesn't know where he is now, he should still be in the east."
At that moment, Liu Sang took Xiaoying and left the county office...
The merchant ship was docked at the pier, but Xia Yingchen and the others stayed in the most luxurious inn in the city.
The reason why I chose this place was not only to live comfortably, but also because those monsters should not dare to do it in such a crowded place even if they have schemes.
Even if it is a monster, if it provokes anger and resentment in the territory of Daqi, and angers the royal family of Daqi, they will definitely not be able to please.
Liu Sang went back to the inn and discussed with Xia Yingchen behind closed doors. That night, he let Xiaoying carry him away from the city with sword energy.
On the second day, neither Liu Sang nor Xiaoying came back, and Xia Yingchen was not in a hurry, just wandering around in the city.
After two days like this, she waited until someone sent a letter, and then she started to set off, took her sister, Mrs. Yue, and the maid on board the boat, and went down the Sanhua River to Zhenze.
As soon as the merchant ship left the county, a few phantoms quietly left in the dark.
The merchant ship drove all the way on the river, and in the evening, it passed between the mountains and gorge.
Madam Yue and Xia Yingchen stood on the deck, looking at the cliffs on both sides.
Although it is the turn of autumn and winter, the sky is cold and the ground is cold, and most of the birds and animals are hidden in the caves, but it is really too quiet here.
Xia Yingchen sneered and said, "They really can't wait any longer."
Madam Yue said indifferently: "Those who come are not kind, and those who are kind don't come, it's better to be careful."
While speaking, a jet of water exploded ahead, like a giant dragon, charging straight towards the merchant ship...
