The little eagle that was nibbling on the rabbit's leg suddenly stood up.
"I'll go back to Linjiang City and kill that bastard."
"return……"
Gu Yuan stood up and stopped the little eagle who was about to turn back to Linjiang City.
"There are less than five days left for Yun Duoduo's mission. We must help Yun Duoduo complete the mission first. What's more, we have to rush back to the True Fire Hall as soon as possible to participate in the secret trial. We really don't have enough time."
"As for the Xue family, don't rush now, it's important to finish the business..."
Gu Yuan didn't say what he was going to do, but the three companions had already determined in their hearts that Mr. Xue in Linjiang City was destined to die.
After the four of them had rested, the team set off on the road again through the night.
Having learned from previous experiences, the four of them were extra careful along the way.
Fortunately, the accident did not happen again, and the four of them finally arrived in Jiahe County, Chenchuan County before it was completely light.
When the magistrate of Jiahe County heard that Gu Yuan and the others had arrived, he burst into tears of joy.
These days, the dragon-horned monitor lizard in Tianfeng Valley often comes to cause trouble near Jiahe County.
Several villagers have been devoured by dragon-horned monitor lizards. At the end of Jiahe County near Tianfeng Valley, countless fertile fields were destroyed by the dragon-horned monitor lizards that often wandered around and hunted. For a time, there were complaints, and the magistrate of Jiahe County was worried.
His hair is almost turning white.
"The four young heroes arrived just in time."
"If it had been two days later, I would have died to repay the imperial court."
The fat and fair magistrate of Jiahe County said such impassioned words, which made the little eagle beside him couldn't help laughing.
Others may be afraid of these court officials, but cultivators like Gu Yuan and others don't have to worry so much.
The little eagle smiled, and Li Cheng and Yun Duoduo on the side also laughed.
"You, the county magistrate, are quite interesting."
"This dragon-horned monitor lizard didn't attack the city, and you didn't lose Jiahe County."
"Why does the imperial court need you to die in retribution?"
After listening to Li Cheng's words, the fat magistrate of Jiahe County seemed to be greatly insulted.
"Who, who said that the dragon-horned monitor lizard didn't attack the city?"
"That monster climbed up the north wall of Jiahe County today and ate three soldiers and two government officials in the county!"
"Maybe it will crawl into our Jiahe County tomorrow."
The words of the Jiahe County Magistrate made several of Gu Yuan's companions stop laughing.
Gu Yuan, who had been silent until now, also frowned and looked at the fat Magistrate Jiahe.
"The dragon-horned monitor lizard climbed to the top of the county town?"
"When I entered the city this morning, I took a look. The city wall in Jiahe County is more than two feet long, right?"
"Yes, Jiahe County is Shangxian County, and the city wall is two feet and six feet high."
When the magistrate of Jiahe County said this, Gu Yuan, who was present, couldn't help but feel his heart sink.
The common size of the dragon-horned monitor lizard is about three or four meters.
When converted, it's roughly a little over one foot.
The dragon-horned monitor lizard was actually able to climb up the two-foot-six-foot Jiahe County city wall...
The little eagle on the side also realized something and quickly asked the magistrate of Jiahe County:
"How big is the dragon-horned monitor lizard?"
The fat magistrate of Jiahe County shook his head.
"This, I don't know this."
"When I arrived, the dragon-horned monitor lizard had already eaten people and left the city wall."
"However, Chief Xing of our county was at the scene at the time. I can call him to ask."
"Okay, call Capt. Xing quickly. We have something we want to ask him about."
The little eagle said impatiently.
The magistrate of Jiahe County turned around and left the county government hall, but returned a moment later with a tall and mighty man.
The magistrate of Jiahe County walked up to Gu Yuan and the others, pointed at the man who came in with him and introduced:
"Young heroes, this is Mr. Xing from this county."
"He was there when the dragon-horned monitor lizard went up the city wall."
The burly Xing Baotou, who was about forty years old, cooperated with the Jiahe County magistrate, hugged his fists at Gu Yuan and the others, and said loudly.
"Yes, I was in the city at that time."
"As soon as the monster came up, it swept me away with its tail. The pain was so painful that I almost fainted. It ate several people in a row and then left Jiahe County."
"How big is the dragon-horned monitor lizard?"
The little eagle on the side quickly interjected and asked.
Xing Baotou thought for a moment, roughly recalling the size of the dragon-horned monitor lizard in his mind.
Then he said in an uncertain tone:
"The monster must be at least five or six meters long."
"The city wall is so high, and that guy jumped up all of a sudden without any effort at all."
After saying that, Xing Baotou nodded heavily and emphasized again in a positive tone.
"Yes, it must be at least five or six meters."
"I, Mr. Xing, have lived for more than 40 years, and I have never seen such a big dragon-horned monitor lizard."
After listening to Capt. Xing's words, Gu Yuan looked at his three companions.
"Things are getting a little tricky."
"This dragon-horned monitor lizard is obviously much larger than what we knew before.
It seems to have mutated. I don’t know if this guy encountered some chance or other circumstances, or if it has any special abilities.”
The little eagle pondered for a while and then said:
"We have to think of a way. We can't wait for the dragon-horned monitor lizard to come again. That guy is so big, and his attacks can easily affect innocent people in the county."
Mr. Xing, who was on the side, quickly interrupted and said:
"If you want to go to the dragon horned monitor lizard's nest, I can show you the way.
I know where the monster is."
When the fat Jiahe County Magistrate heard this, he kept nodding his head and looked at Mr. Xing with admiration.
"I also ask some of you, for the sake of the people of Jiahe County, to get rid of the monster that is causing trouble as soon as possible."
Gu Yuan looked at his three companions inquiringly, and all three nodded in agreement without hesitation.
Only then did Gu Yuan promise to the magistrate of Jiahe County:
"Okay, let's rest for a long time first to recover our strength."
"When the rest is over, we will follow Xing Captou to the dragon-horned monitor lizard's lair."
The little eagle on the side also intervened and asked:
"It's best to get us something to eat. After traveling all night, I'm already hungry. If there's anything delicious, hurry up!"
"Of course, of course.
Several young heroes first asked to rest in the back room.
I will immediately ask my servants to prepare the meals and deliver them to you."
This dragon-horned monitor lizard has occupied the main road from Jiahe County to Chenchuan County and other cities.
It even injured many lives in Jiahe County.
The magistrate of Jiahe County has long been troubled by this dragon-horned monitor lizard. Ever since he asked for help from the True Fire Hall, he has been waiting for the stars and the moon every day to send someone from the True Fire Hall.
Now that Gu Yuan and the others are finally here, they naturally try their best to satisfy their requests.
He first asked Capt. Xing to take Gu Yuan and the others down to rest, and then he personally arranged meals for Gu Yuan and the others.
