Chapter 210: The first appearance of the demon trail (7k ask for a monthly ticket)
(I wrote until three o'clock in the morning. I was too sleepy. If you have any questions, please point them out. I don't know where my writing got messed up...)
Yongcheng, mountains and forests on the outskirts.
The boss was hiding in a cave with his dog at this time, not daring to make a sound at all.
dead.
All dead.
That demon python is obviously teasing everyone.
Just now, when the group of them returned, the first time they saw the demonic python, they were all frightened and stayed in place.
A cold air rose from their backs and spines, it was too big!
This monster python was more than ten feet long. No wonder the stone disappeared without making any sound.
At this time, the demon python opened its big mouth, and an extremely fishy sound came from its mouth, which made people sick.
And precisely because of this, they reacted and ran away like crazy. However, when the demon python saw this situation, he didn't panic.
It spat out snakes and looked at the hunters fleeing in all directions, unmoved at all.
There is indifference between the slender snake eyes.
Among these hunters, whoever runs faster will die faster.
After a while, the demon python seemed to have had enough of teasing these people, and disappeared in an instant.
And the first target it looks for is people who run fast, so no one can run away.
Just when these hunters were being chased by pythons, the desperate dogs were grabbed by the head next to them.
After Lao grabbed the dog by the head, he did not explain. He did not run directly, but rolled the dog to the side.
And just by rolling away like this, they were temporarily out of danger. This was because the veteran leader was rich in experience.
Although Gouzi was frightened, he completely believed in the old leader in a moment because of the prestige he had accumulated over a long period of time.
Because of Gouzi's trust, they were able to escape into a cave smoothly, and they did not dare to say another word after that.
The only sound left in the entire cave was their rapid breathing. They didn't dare to make any other noise. Who knew whether the monster python had gone far.
Immediately afterwards, they hid in the cave and heard several screams from around them from time to time.
I think these must be my companions who have suffered the poisonous hands of the demon python and are probably dead.
When the boss heard this, his first reaction was to press Gouzi hard and cover his mouth tightly, because at this time, they could not make any movement.
After so many years in the mountains, the boss has never seen such a big python. This python has definitely become a monster.
I don't know how long it took, but there was gradually no movement around, but the boss felt that it was better to be careful, so he waited for another incense, and then he felt a little relieved.
This demon python should have left.
He carefully poked his head out to make sure that there was indeed no movement around him, and then he pulled the dog and climbed out of the cave with slight movements.
As they walked on the trail, they could find pools of blood at regular intervals around them.
They didn't know which of their companions' blood was left behind, but one thing was certain, they couldn't go up the mountain anymore for the time being.
But who would have thought that on the first day of the Lunar New Year, when they worshiped the mountain god, they would encounter such bad luck.
"Go, go quickly."
The boss didn't have time to feel sad, so he directly picked up the dog and wanted to take the dog back to the village as soon as possible.
They must pass the news back here. With so many people dead, they should let the village know what happened, otherwise they don't know how many more people will be killed.
Therefore they must return alive.
So, the two of them staggered, supported each other, suppressed their fear and sadness, and hurried down the mountain.
But they hadn't run for long before the old man's heart arose again.
Oops!
The feeling of being spied on just now came back.
For a moment, Lao Baotou's face turned pale, and there was some cold sweat on his forehead unconsciously, and he stopped immediately.
Gouzi didn't know what happened yet, but when he saw Lao Dong's head stopped, his own steps naturally stopped.
"Uncle Boss, what's wrong? I can't run anymore? Then I'll carry you on my back. We have to run quickly."
"It's too late."
The boss's face was pale and he looked frightened. As soon as he said these words, the dog who turned around suddenly had his pupils dilated.
A chill rose up from his spine, and his expression was pale, leaving only complete despair.
That demon python is here again.
I saw this demonic python spitting out snake bites and staring at the two bosses with playful eyes. There was a distance between them, but its eyes were full of indifference.
The boss sat down on the ground at this time. There was no one else to attract the attention of the demon python, so the two of them couldn't run away.
But just when they had resigned themselves to death, the demon python actually spoke:
"Do you want to leave?"
For a moment, Lao Nao was completely stunned and motionless. This demon python was indeed a demon. Otherwise, how could he speak?
Seeing that the boss didn't answer, the demon python was not impatient and spoke again.
"I said, do you still want to live?"
The two bosses who had come to their senses at this time, of course nodded wildly. If they could leave alive, who would want to die?
"Very well, I can let you leave, but starting from today, you have to send someone up every half month.
If you don't keep your promise and don't send anyone up, then I will go to your village to find you personally.
At that time, you can guess how many people will die that night, and let you try what the consequences will be if you don't follow the instructions."
After saying that, the demon python didn't even wait for their answer, but turned and left directly.
Seeing this situation, Lao Baotou confirmed that the demon python had really left, and then he collapsed to the ground and took a big breath.
Survived.
I survived by myself!!
Gouzi's face looked very ugly at this time. He looked at the boss and asked, "Uncle Boss, what should we do next?"
"Go back to the village and tell the truth to the villagers. Our village is in big trouble."
"ah?"
When Gouzi heard this, he was a little confused, but the old boss who had come to his senses knew that this was the best choice.
After all, this has a bearing on the life and death of the entire village. Only by telling the truth can we survive the crisis.
As for lying, it can only be concealed for a while, but not forever. It is better to talk about this kind of thing as early as possible.
However, only God has the final say as to who will die and who will not die in the future.
Now the boss has only one thing on his mind, which is to go back and persuade the villagers to leave and explain the situation clearly.
Because they are ordinary people, this demonic python is not something they can deal with.
.....
In the mountains and forests.
The boss thought about the situation clearly. After taking the dog down the mountain, somewhere in the forest, the demon python that was showing off its power just now had its head on the ground.
The demon python looked at the middle-aged man standing opposite, with a look that was both eager and fearful.
"Yes, you did a good job in this matter. I will report it to the superiors. Especially you left a living person alive, frightened them, and used them as bait. It is really good."
Immediately afterwards, the middle-aged man turned back to look at the demon python, but there was just a line in his eyes, as if there were no pupils at all.
If anyone was around, they would be startled. At this time, the middle-aged man took out a pill from his sleeve and threw it directly at the demon python.
The demon python quickly stretched out his head, caught the pill, and then swallowed it directly. This small pill made the demon python full of excitement.
Then, the middle-aged man disappeared without even looking at the demon python, and the demon python also left with a satisfied look on his face.
After a while, the middle-aged man appeared again in this silent place, but this time his eyes were looking at Yongcheng.
"Secret land fusion, then I want to see if the Yongcheng god can sense the situation here, and what will he do next?"
After saying this to himself, the middle-aged man's figure disappeared again, and the place quickly returned to tranquility.
...
Fox Hill.
When the ancestor Hu Fei came back a few days ago, the other fox tribes were a little strange. Why didn't the little fox Qingqing come back?
The two servants of the Fox clan who were originally in Siguoya Siguo have also been shown mercy by the old magic stick and allowed them to come back and continue working.
Because this time, they can't really blame them. Although this seems to be an accident, it is actually inevitable.
This matter is related to the fate of the little fox Qingqing. If she can get through it safely this time, I am afraid that her spiritual path may be easier.
From the time we came back until now, which is what the human race calls the first day of the new year, Fox Hill has been the same as before, not particularly lively.
But at this moment, a demon clan that transformed into a boy suddenly ran in, with a strange look on his face.
"Old Ancestor, a visitor from Qingqiu said he wants to visit you."
"Qingqiu?"
Hearing this, Hu Fei couldn't help but stood up. After all, Qingqiu is the legendary place where the Fox Clan appeared.
However, after Hu Fei was stationed in Daxia, he almost lost contact with him there. So why did Qingqiu directly bring people to find him this time?
With doubts in his mind, Hu Fei decided to greet him personally. After all, this was not a big deal, not to mention that Qingqiu had always been the holy land of the Fox Clan.
However, when Hu Fei saw Qingqiu's appearance clearly, he couldn't help but frown, "It's so evil."
After all, Hu Fei is a demon cultivator. Although he is a very rare Qing cultivator, he has not cannibalized the human race. Their cultivation relies almost entirely on the essence of the sun and moon.
But the person standing opposite now is obviously different from the Huqiu Fox Clan. He seems to have eaten the human race as blood food.
Damn it.
There was no mutual agreement, so he already regretted meeting the Qingqiu Fox.
Because such a ferocious fox shows that he has a lot of lives on his hands.
.......
City God Temple.
Du Zhishan's face looked very ugly at this time. The spirit of He Mei told him some bad news early in the morning today.
Incidents of monsters hurting people occurred simultaneously in many places in Yongning Prefecture.
As for the river spirit spirit, after all, he is more sensitive to weird things like the underworld.
And these troublesome monsters are just because they have opened their spiritual intelligence, but they have not transformed into beasts, so they can be regarded as beasts.
Therefore, when the demon python bit people, the river spirit spirit did not discover the problem at the first time.
However, these are the evil spirits after upgrading to the world stage after all. The deeper the obsession of these souls who died in vain, the easier it is to turn into evil spirits.
Fortunately, the spirit of the river charm reacted quickly at that time and suppressed these evil spirits directly, banished them to the secret place, and then became the source of the secret place's yin energy.
However, it was precisely because of this that he was able to discover the anomaly in Yongning Mansion. As for Du Zhishan, his face became very ugly after he learned about the situation.
Neglected.
Unexpectedly, because of my concentration, almost all my perceptions were focused on the strangeness of the evil spirit. Unexpectedly, I ignored the demon because of this.
Once a beast opens its spiritual intelligence, it can be said to be transformed into a monster.
Those who have not transformed into beast bodies and throat bones are still in the category of monsters, but if they can transform into human form, they are monsters.
The old dragon is a demon, and the little Qingqing fox is also a demon. Precisely because they are both demons in their own right, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon, they have nothing to do with the human race.
This made Du Zhishan not pay attention to the appearance of monsters for a while, but just after the New Year, the incident of monsters killing human beings happened, which was not a small matter.
As soon as Du Zhishan received the news, he prepared to go to the forest where the incident occurred in Yongcheng, but he did not prepare to inform Liang Du.
After all, it was the first day of the Lunar New Year, and Du Zhishan didn't want to disturb Liang's New Year. Anyway, with the spirit of the river charm around, he didn't think anything unexpected would happen during his trip.
However, before leaving, he also used the characteristics of the City God's Temple to issue his own warning to several other cities where monster chaos was occurring.
After they get the information, there will be someone to deal with these problems. He doesn't have much worry about other cities.
After all, when the river spirit spirit detects the situation, all it sees are untransformed monsters.
As a master in the realm of Japanese travellers, Du Zhishan is more than capable of dealing with people like them.
He didn't know that the fox demon from Qingqiu had a hidden aura, and the river spirit spirit didn't pay much attention to it, so he missed it.
It can only be said that the demon has just revived, and the river spirit spirits still have too little experience, so they have taken advantage of it.
.....
Crow Yi Lane.
As soon as Du Zhishan left the Chenghuang Temple, Liang Du felt something in his heart.
However, because there were too many firecrackers yesterday and the New Year celebrations in Yongcheng were too lively, Liang Du once again took back some of his outside perceptions.
But he didn't know what happened, but after sensing Du Zhishan's departure, he couldn't help but feel a little strange.
Why did Du Zhishan want to go outside the city? Because of this question, he expanded his consciousness, otherwise it would be difficult for him to discover what happened just now?
After he let go of some of his perceptions, he frowned.
Unexpectedly, so many people died in one night, and it was not caused by evil spirits. This was much more complicated than before.
However, because of his respect for Hu Qiu and Hu Fei, Liang Du did not investigate Hu Qiu and missed the demon coming from Qingqiu.
This also made him relax some of his vigilance and not give him an immediate warning.
However, this sudden outbreak of many monster incidents is indeed a bit strange.
