The night is dark and windy, and it's a night to catch monsters.
The entire inn was cleared early and was silent. In the middle of the inner courtyard of the inn, there were four or five fat roosters in a chicken coop, which made a few flapping sounds from time to time.
Not a single person could be seen around, not even the shop waiter who usually patrolled in the middle of the night. But if you look closely, you can find that there are several people lying on the roof, under the eaves, behind the door, and even among the flowers and plants in the courtyard. Individual figures, all staring at the dozing chickens in the yard with full concentration and motionlessness.
An hour passed...
Nothing happened.
Two hours have passed...
There was dead silence.
Three hours have passed...
"Ah!" Gu Yue couldn't help but sneeze, and received dozens of swiping looks of condemnation. He had a thought in his heart, damn, he was crazy so he stayed up in the middle of the night and followed these mentally retarded people out to cause mischief. .It’s been so long and I haven’t even seen a single monster hair.
"Okay, okay, you're almost done." He pushed Shen Ying next to him. He really didn't want to lie down on the roof. He said that such a stupid plan would not work. Those foundation-building disciples would not restrain their breath at all. A few monks full of spiritual energy couldn't see the monster because they were blind. "It's all your bad idea. The monster will come because there is a ghost."
"Here we come!" As soon as he finished speaking, a disciple's low-pitched cry came from below.
A cloud of black air suddenly fell straight down from the sky.
Gu Yue: "..."
(⊙_⊙)
Damn it! There really is a blind demon!
The black air fell to the ground and rushed towards the chicken in the cage. Several chicken crows suddenly sounded in the courtyard. After two breaths, the chicken disappeared. There seemed to be a ball of yellow stuff among the chicken feathers on the floor of the cage. .
"Um..." The black air trembled, as if he had burped, and his body grew bigger, and floated up again, as if he was about to fly away.
"Catch her!" Cheng'an shouted, and the formations in the courtyard suddenly lit up, and the disciples who had been ambushing them rushed over with weapons.
The black energy seemed to be frightened, and quickly turned around in a circle, and began to jump up and down under the moves of the disciples. Perhaps the inner courtyard was too small, and there were so many disciples from the Xuantian Sect. The crowd was so crowded that the demon managed to escape for a moment.
"Don't be chaotic. Junior brothers and sisters, please guard your own formations!" Cheng'an is the eldest disciple of the sect leader after all. Seeing that he couldn't take it down for a while, he began to instruct everyone to use formations to restrain the monsters first.
The confused group of disciples retreated, but just as they retreated, the black energy instantly emerged from the crowd, seizing the opportunity to rise into the air and rush out to the right.
"Fuck!" Chengan was anxious. When he looked up, he saw that the black air had rushed out of the range of the formation and flew directly to the right, and what was guarding there was...
Shen Ying, Gu Yue, Yi Qing: "..."
Cheng'an paused, then remembered that this was their experience, and immediately shouted loudly to Shen Ying, "Junior sister, stop it!"
Ah? Ah!
Shen Ying was startled, but that ball of black air had already flown in front of her. It was a chubby ball, with two black tails trailing faintly behind it, swinging back and forth. She subconsciously stretched out her hand to grab it, and gently moved towards it. Next pull.
Meow...
A scream suddenly pierced the sky, and the mass of things fell on the roof with a bang. The black energy on his body dissipated, revealing a young man dressed in black, with two black ears on his head and two swings behind his back. A big chubby tail.
Uh...cat COS?
"Twin-tailed civet cat?!" Gu Yue took a step forward in surprise. Isn't this a sixth-level monster? What about the eighth-level monster as promised?
The transformed raccoon cat looked about ten years old. It might have been hurt by the fall. It hugged its big tail and blew air pitifully. Its green eyes were filled with tears, as if it was about to cry in the next second.
"Meow..." He raised his head and glanced at the three of them weakly. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, turned around, took out a ball of yellow stuff from his bag, and pushed it in their direction.
Gu Yue took a closer look and found that it was actually a piece of gold!
(⊙_⊙)
Hey! What do you mean? Bribing them?
Seeing that they didn't move, the civet cat was stunned, took out another bag from the bag, and placed it side by side with the previous one.
Three people: "..." This is a 'sensible' civet cat.
Seeing that they still didn't move, the civet cat demon simply gritted his teeth and poured out all the gold in the bag. Suddenly, seven or eight pieces of gold fell from the roof. He looked at them weakly and said, "No... it's gone."
Meow."
"..." Gu Yue's mouth twitched, he didn't think it was too little! Where did this monster who eats chicken without forgetting to pay come from?
"Tell me, why are you hurting people?" Trying to ignore the pile of gold, Gu Yue took a step forward and pointed directly at the civet cat on the ground with the jade flute in her hand.
"Meow!" The civet cat trembled in fright, tears suddenly welled up, and it shook its head vigorously, "Excuse me, please forgive me, meow, I don't have one? Although I am not a vegetarian, I am a pure domestic cat.
A good, harmless meow."
"Don't even think about making excuses." Gu Yue's voice sank, "How dare you say that the riots in this town are not caused by you."
"I...I ate a few chickens secretly! That's because I'm hungry, meow." The civet cat cried louder and louder, with a look of grievance on his face, "But...but I paid for everything! Really.
, I didn’t harm anyone.” It pointed to the golden knots on the ground, and then counted them with its fingers, “I also cured Uncle Wang’s back injury, Uncle Li’s foot pain, Uncle Zhao’s rheumatism, and Sun Yat-sen’s.
Auntie’s sunflower water is not right…”
"Stop, stop, stop!" You, a little civet cat demon, know a lot about all this nonsense, "The dozen or so people who died in the town, and the golden elixir monk who had his heart disemboweled, you
What’s the explanation?”
"Then...that was all done by the eighth-level fox demon from before." The civet cat seemed to have thought of something and trembled all over. "I passed by here more than ten days ago and saw it harming people. It also wanted to rob someone.
Meow can't defeat meow's things, so I have to hide in the town."
"Hide?" Gu Yue was stunned for a moment, then opened her eyes wide, "You said the town's protective formation is still there!" Thinking of this, he immediately made a secret, and a bright light flew out from his fingertips and rushed into the sky.
In less than a moment, a transparent protective shield appeared over the town, covering the entire town. It was really there!
In any town protected by Xuantian Sect, the sect will set up protective formations in the town to prevent demons, beasts, and demon cultivators with evil spirits from entering and harming mortals. Therefore, it is impossible to enter the town without breaking through this layer of protection first.
.When he received a request for help from this town, saying that there was a demon causing chaos in the town, he subconsciously thought that the protective formation had been broken long ago, so no one thought to check it, but he did not expect that it was still there.
The reason why this civet cat was able to come in was probably true to what it said. It had never harmed anyone, so it didn't have any blood evil energy in it, so it didn't touch the formation.
