Chapter 82 The Mystery of the Blood Demon
"It's really powerful! It's a blockbuster!"
Gu Xia stood up and looked back.
I saw a large pit with a diameter of more than one foot and a depth of seven or eight feet where the thunderball exploded in the palm of my hand.
If he were hit in the face, any golden bell or iron shirt would explode into a colander, and the body-protecting black energy would be violently penetrated in an instant.
The monster in the pool lay quietly at the bottom of the pit, with its spikes almost flattened by the thunder beads in its palm, and its extremely hard outer shell shattered, revealing the squirming flesh and blood inside.
Gu Xia walked over to check, and sure enough it was another blood demon.
He was a little surprised when he opened the cracked hard shell of the monster in the pool.
Gu Xia originally thought that the inside of this thing would be like a sea urchin, with internal organs or something, but now she took a look.
There is a skinless person curled up inside the hard shell of the monster in the pool. His flesh and blood are exposed, and his bones can still be seen, as if that layer of hard shell is his skin.
Recalling the previous human-faced frogs, these two blood demons seemed to have some human characteristics, but they were completely unlike humans. They were also not similar to the people who were transformed into blood demons by the blood disaster recorded in Chao Sha's practice notes.
"How did these blood demons come into being?"
"...Please...kill...kill me..."
Suddenly, the body of the monster in the pool began to speak human words.
"Can you speak?" Gu Xia asked.
"...It hurts...Father...Mother..." The demon in the pool murmured.
Gu Xia could see that it was wailing meaninglessly like the human face on the human-faced frog. Perhaps someone's emotions before death were revealed in the blood demon.
He stretched out his hand and used the blood-devouring technique again.
An hour later, Gu Xia roughly searched the village and found no other blood demons. It should have been cleaned up.
He also tried it with a bamboo pole. The blood pool was indeed quite deep, more than ten feet deep, but there was no boundless sea of blood underneath.
It was getting late, and just in case, Gu Xia did not dare to stay overnight in the village. Instead, he rode ten miles away from the village before finding a place to light a bonfire and stay overnight.
…
noon.
Gaoguan County Government.
County Magistrate Qi asked with some worry: "Is there any clue about how the rain will kill evil spirits and bring about monsters? Today another dozen watchmen were killed by monsters..."
"County Magistrate Qi, this monster is very cunning and not easy to find. But if you dare to kill people under the eyes of this evil-killing envoy, you are really tired of living.
Don’t worry, I will eliminate the demons in Gaoguan County within one month! "Yu Wusi replied.
Magistrate Qi saw his gesture and waved to the government officer beside him.
The yamen servant brought a tray with some fine jade, jade and pearls on it.
He said: "Thank you so much, Yuzhu Xieshi, for taking the worry out of our county! This is given to you by the sages and businessmen of our county as a token of gratitude."
Yu Wusi's eyes lit up: "I thought about it again, the new year is approaching.
In order to allow the people of the county to have a peaceful New Year, we will redouble our efforts and strive to kill the monster in half a month! "
"That's good! It all depends on you, Lord Zhu Xie!" Magistrate Qi felt more relieved.
The two said.
Outside the door, a member of the Zhuxie Division came in in a panic.
"Sir! The people who investigated the village are back! But..."
Yu Wusi: "But what!"
"Only one person is back!"
"Who is it? Tian Cong?" The first thing Yu Wusi thought of was his family. He was also the most experienced among the four people who went out.
The man shook his head: "No, it's..."
Yu Wusi walked out of the county government gate quickly and saw Gu Xia, whose clothes were in tatters and with many scars on his body, standing there in panic and fear.
"Zhu...Zhu Xieji...Sir, I'm back..."
"Where are the three of them?" Yu Wusi asked immediately.
"There are several monsters in the village...the village...senior brother! Senior sister! They are all...all...dead! Only...I am the only one...escaped..."
Gu Xia's face was dull, numb and mixed with fear, as if she was scared out of her wits.
"What!" Yu Wusi felt like a thunderbolt in his heart.
Monsters are extremely rare and usually only appear alone. He did not expect that there would be multiple monsters in the village even though there were already monsters in the county.
Now because of his poor decision-making, three people died at once. How to report such a huge loss?
Moreover, those three people are still his old team members, and Gu Xia, who he hoped would never come back, is back.
Yu Wusi couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, he picked up Gu Xia's collar and cursed.
"They are all dead! Then how did you come back? Did you run away from the battle, abandon your brothers and sisters, and live alone!"
"No...no...don't blame me...those monsters...killed senior brothers and sisters...and wanted to kill me...it was senior brother Angelica who gave me...a thunder bead in his palm...that's why I escaped..."
Gu Xia yelled in panic, even cried, and her whole body collapsed into a ball.
"waste!"
Seeing Gu Xia's performance, Yu Wusi didn't think too much.
After all, newcomers have never seen the world. If their teammates are killed by monsters and die tragically in front of them, they will indeed be frightened and collapse.
"Call everyone, let's go to Dijia Village now!"
Yu Wusi was going to avenge the three of them, collect the bodies, give an explanation to the sect, and investigate how they died.
"Wait a minute, Yu Zhu Xie Envoy." Qi County Magistrate was unwilling to let them go.
"What's the matter with the county magistrate?"
Qi County Magistrate: "I am very sad about what happened to the three heroes! I will definitely call on the village sages and wealthy businessmen to erect monuments for them and praise their merits.
But now that the evil has not been eliminated in the county, I hope that the rain will punish the evil so that we can prioritize the evil. "
Yu Wusi: "County magistrate, I will come back after collecting the corpses for my subordinates!"
Magistrate Qi: "Monsters like to bite people. Besides, it's winter now, so there's no rush."
What he meant was that the corpses under your hands might have been eaten. If it has not been eaten, it will not rot even if it is left for ten days and a half in winter now.
"I understand. We should put the people of the county first! Get rid of the demons in the county first, and then I will collect the remains for my subordinates." Yu Wusi's tone was rather unhappy.
"Zhu Xie understands the righteousness well, and thousands of households in the county will never forget your contribution." Magistrate Qi could only reassure him by hinting that there were still benefits.
Yu Wusi looked at Gu Xia, who was lying on the ground crying, and kicked him: "Did you find any clues in the village?"
Gu Xia cowered and pointed at a small flag on the horse, which he pulled from beside the blood pool.
Yu Wusi looked at it and his expression changed.
Magistrate Qi asked: "What's so special about this flag?"
Yu Wusi: "This is the flag of the Origin Demon Cult. This cult is extremely vicious and will cause a bloody storm every time it appears.
There have been many tragedies caused by them in Xianfu City, but I didn’t expect them to appear near Gaoguan County too! "
Upon hearing this, County Magistrate Qi said: "Then I hope everyone in the Zhuxie Division will not leak the news. It is enough that only you and I know about this matter."
He suppressed the news about the Origin Sect because he did not want to cause further panic in the county.
People in the county are already panic-stricken because of the evil infestation, and if it adds to the fire, something will happen, and then he will no longer need to be the county magistrate.
"Feng Wanbai, take the flag and travel day and night to return to Tianxuan Sect and ask the elders for help." Yu Wusi ordered a member of the Zhuxie Division.
"As you command!"
Yu Wusi added: "It may take five or six days for Qi County Magistrate's reinforcements to arrive. During this time, we will temporarily stay in your mansion.
Then call in the important and capable people in the county.
You mobilize some soldiers to guard the surroundings, and with our protection, we should be able to keep everyone safe. "
Yu Wusi thought.
This mission has already started badly. He killed three people first and then found traces of the Origin Cult. If the cultists are dangerous, he is not afraid. If all his men are killed, what should he do if the elders blame them.
But in the past few days, he had collected nearly ten thousand taels of money, and he had to do things without collecting the money.
It is better to ask for help from Elder Zhu Xie and call another Zhu Xie envoy to come over. Not only will it be easier to do things if there are more people, but it will also be easier to divide the pot if there are too many people.
He and others adopted a shrinking strategy to protect important people.
As soon as the reinforcements from Tianxuan Sect arrive, they will search house to house and screen everyone. If the cultists are found, they can be eliminated immediately.
