Author: Really the younger brother among younger brothers
Chapter 114 That’s it? Nothing more than that
The buildings scattered around the slaughterhouse formed a temporary town, filled with heavily guarded monks.
The slaughterhouse in the center looks like an ordinary butcher shop, but the doors and windows are closed, and the lanterns hanging under the eaves sway in the wind.
Compared to the man-bear beasts at Caishikou, which roar every once in a while, the slaughterhouse is simply eerily quiet.
The occasional sound of sheep braying didn't sound like it came from a slaughterhouse.
The source is more like the warehouse in front of the slaughterhouse, which was used to store the corpses of strange beasts so that the slaughterhouse could decompose spiritual materials.
After some of the monks were evacuated one after another, Taoist Qingfang who was in the alchemy stage came out again. Seeing that there was no evidence of the animal disaster in the slaughterhouse, the monks in charge breathed a sigh of relief.
I thought that the stability of the slaughterhouse would last until the animal disaster was over.
But for some reason, the number of patrol agents is increasing day by day.
Their expressions were unusually solemn, and they kept their eyes on magic at all times, scanning their surroundings as if they were searching for something in the town.
When the police officers gathered at a certain shop on the outskirts of the town, they immediately attracted the attention of a large number of monks, who all speculated on the cause.
Ma Weigong frowned, and he could already smell the corpse stench before he even entered the store.
According to the rate of decomposition of the monks in the total horn stage after their death, the body should have been there for two days, and the strange beast finally escaped.
"Go and search every corner. Don't miss any traces."
Ma Weigong led more than a dozen detectives into the shop. At first glance, they saw the corpse lying in the house, with flesh and blood covered with maggots.
"The identity of the corpse?"
"Kou Gang, I know his name is Kou Gang."
Ma Weigong turned his head and saw a tall and tall monk at the door. He seemed to have a good personal relationship with Li Mo.
"Jin Li, my shop is not far away."
After Jin Li got Ma Weigong's permission, he also came to the body, but when he saw Kou Gang's miserable condition, he couldn't help but take a breath.
The cause of death of the corpse was a broken head, and there were traces of elephant feet on the ground.
The heart was empty, obviously eaten clean by strange beasts.
In Jin Li's impression, Kou Gang's strength is pretty good in the overall stage, so he shouldn't be unable to make any move against the monsters, right?
That monster's methods were probably very covert, and it knew the layout of the slaughterhouse very well, so it could do it quietly.
Jin Li secretly wrote down the information and planned to inform Li Mo afterwards that any abnormalities in the slaughterhouse might affect the calligraphy and painting hall.
A policeman walked out of the back room and said with a fearful face: "horse head, the traces have been there for a while. The monster left immediately after eating the heart of its prey."
"Check each store to at least confirm whether the monster is still in the slaughterhouse."
"yes."
Ma Weigong pinched the bridge of his nose, turned to Jin Li and said, "Fellow Daoist Jin is just laughing. A strange beast escaped from the slaughterhouse, but it has not reached the weak crown stage, so it is not difficult to deal with."
Jin Li could tell from Ma Weigong's anxious look that the matter was by no means as simple as the latter said.
It was probably very involved, otherwise the Yamen would not have mobilized so many people, especially since the deceased was only a chief executive.
The policeman put the body into a storage bag and left in a hurry.
Jin Li looked at the cold and damp shop and couldn't help but shudder. He took out the spiritual tablet and conveyed the story of the slaughterhouse to Li Mo.
As a result, there was a reply from Li Mo soon.
"Don't worry, the monster has left the range of the slaughterhouse."
"ah?"
Little did Jin Li know that Li Mo was facing that strange beast at this moment.
Li Mo stood on the top of the eaves and observed that the black goat monster was walking aimlessly in circles, lowering its head from time to time to nibble on the dead grass on the roadside.
He has completely seen the appearance of the black goat monster.
There is a huge horn on the top of the head, the eyes are cloudy and white, the left foot has a sheep's hoof, but the right foot has a human foot, and the aura is perfect in the total horn stage.
The most tingling thing is that the black goat monster's face is similar to An Gang's and has an indescribable weirdness.
Li Mo even noticed that the black goat monster's feet still had traces of iron chains, which were obviously from the clavicle sealing chain.
As for whether the black goat monster is related to An Gang, that is unknown.
"What..."
While Li Mo contacted the Yamen, he tried his best to delay the Black Goat Monster.
As long as the black goat monster shows signs of moving away from the calligraphy and painting hall, it will deliberately release its own aura to lure the opponent closer.
Li Mo felt that the black goat monster was not as smart as Jin Li said, and could not even compare to ordinary beasts.
Just the act of breathing in and out caused the black goat monster to circle around and keep wandering within two hundred meters of the calligraphy and painting hall.
The Yamen responded quickly and the dispatched police officers were on the way.
Li Mo originally wanted to deal with the black goat monster coldly. After all, it was related to An Gang, and it was impossible to kill it and throw it into the meat mountain as nourishment.
But then something unexpected happened to the black goat monster without any warning.
"What..."
The black goat monster tilted its head, its expression looking extremely painful, and then a bloody wound appeared on its chest and abdomen, which seemed to be caused by a sharp long horn piercing the flesh.
But there were obviously no monks around, so why was the black goat monster injured?
Li Mo's first reaction was that there was a puppet cultivator secretly stirring up the situation. He was afraid of affecting the slaughterhouse, so he opened his mouth and spat out a large number of poisonous bees.
Tens of thousands of poisonous bees surged out.
The thick fog is tainted with the sweet smell of poisonous bees, and the venom comes from the volatilization of toxins in the tail needles. As long as a mortal takes a breath, he will faint immediately.
The mist covered a thousand meters in the blink of an eye, but not even a trace of the spell was found, let alone a puppet cultivator.
The black goat monster fell to its knees, its whole body convulsing with pain, and then its injuries healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
But the skin and flesh that grew back were no different from those of ordinary men.
Under Li Mo's watch, the black goat monster gradually transformed into humans, but only its chest and abdomen, completely contrary to common sense.
Click, click, click...
The sound of bones colliding could be heard all over the Black Goat's body. His cultivation had reached the early stage of Weak Crown, and at the same time there was a hint of aura in his eyes.
"Mea."
Li Mo felt cold all over his body, not because he was afraid of the strange black goat, but because he was afraid of the strange and inexplicable rules of the slaughterhouse.
No wonder Tian Changwen would concentrate a lot of manpower in the slaughterhouse.
The black goat monster tilted its head and limped towards Li Mo.
The left and right legs are obviously uncoordinated, but the black goat monster walks without any movement, its two long and narrow arms constantly swinging.
"Mea."
A trace of greed flashed in the eyes of the black goat monster. The frequency of its movements did not change, but its speed suddenly increased several times, and then disappeared into the fog.
The shaking sound of the arrival of the Yamen just covered up the black goat monster.
Li Mo was still standing in the courtyard, and could feel the black goat staring at him, obviously attracted by the heart of the roe owl.
The Yamen stopped next to the Painting and Calligraphy Hall, and the two policemen hurried out.
Ma Weigong's attitude was respectful and he followed behind the old policeman with white hair and beard.
The old detective's name is Tang Wu. He has an exaggerated rosacea on his face and holds a cigarette in his hand. He is in the late stage of the weak crown.
He couldn't help but change his expression when he discovered that the black goat monster transformed into the weak crown stage.
Tang Wu took out the clavicle sealing chain, but he was afraid of disturbing the situation.
Li Mo glanced at the clavicle sealing chain and confirmed that it was refined by himself. It contained elephant bone spiritual materials and was used to deal with the black goat monster.
Tang Wu scratched the back of his head with his skull half exposed, "Junior, you should be Li Mo, who An Captou said is good at weapon refining, right?"
"I won't mince words, this monster is very special, don't harm your life...forget it, with your strength it shouldn't be possible."
"You should try your best to ensure your own safety and lure the monster out."
Li Mo couldn't help but tense his muscles.
With his reputation as a layman of mountains and seas, Tang Wu should have some idea. Could it be that the black goat monster has indescribable abilities?
Ma Weigong looked at Tang Wu, his mouth wide open as he hesitated to speak.
Tangwu is nearly a thousand years old. Due to the erosion of death disease, the possibility of forming elixirs has been cut off, so he has been sleeping in a coffin buried deep in the ground.
In other words, it is a dispute over orthodoxy, otherwise Tang Wu would rarely wake up.
It had only been half a year since Tang Wugang had regained consciousness. He had heard of Li Mo's reputation, but only as a disciple of Han Cai and a middle-grade weapon refiner.
Li Mo almost activated the Hunyuan Taoist body, but no matter how he looked at it, the black goat monster would not threaten him.
He tentatively suppressed the leak-free body, and the blood flowed in waves.
Tang Wu's eyes widened in disbelief. He noticed that Li Mo's aura contained at least two kinds of Taoism.
What monster?
"Mea."
The black goat monster couldn't hold it any longer, and its figure emerged from the thick fog.
Ram horns grew out of its palms, its mouth and nose were blocked by thick wool, and its feet swelled several times in the blink of an eye.
The elephant's foot stamped hard on the ground.
The black goat monster instantly approached Li Mo, and the horns in its palm pointed directly at the latter's chest.
Tang Wu was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he had underestimated the speed of the black goat monster, and Li Mo might be seriously injured because of it.
"careful……"
His expression was ugly. If Li Mo had damaged his foundation, it was hard to imagine that Han Cai would fall to the side of the puppet cultivator.
Li Mo looked like he didn't have time to react and let the horns of the sheep stab him in the heart.
Just before the goat's horns were close to his chest, he stretched out his arm with a strange expression. To be on the safe side, he transformed his arm into a golden toad monster, and chose to use his fists to confront the black goat monster head-on.
Bang!!!
The wind and sand rolled up.
The newly built courtyard wall of the calligraphy and painting hall flew hundreds of meters under the action of the shock wave.
Li Mo frowned slightly.
He was naturally unharmed, but the arms of the black goat monster were like twists, and the spine was broken into more than a dozen sections.
"Baa baa baa..."
The black goat monster let out a heart-rending roar and tried to get up several times, but it took time to recover from its injuries.
Li Mo canceled the transformation of the golden toad into a monster and spread his hands helplessly.
"That's it?"
Tang Wu almost pulled out his beard, his face turned black from holding in the pain and he couldn't even say a single word, and then he released the clavicle sealing chain to tie up the monster.
He carried the monster back to the Yamen, and Ma Weigong said hello with a grimace.
After a while, the Yamen moved quickly towards the slaughterhouse, and Li Mo also received Tian Changwen's mission, followed closely by the Painting and Calligraphy Hall.
The mission requirement is to strengthen the cage of the monster.
