Shi Mu left the small courtyard and half an hour later arrived near the courtyard where the demon clan lived.
"Shitou, why are you here?" Cai'er had been monitoring the snake demon man nearby and asked when she saw Shi Mu appear and land on his shoulder.
Shi Mu did not hide anything from Cai'er and briefly told Cai'er about his encounter with Leng Yuetong.
"There is such a secret technique to change the breath! In this case, I think it is better for you to do it now. These demon clans have occasionally discussed returning to Lingtian Peak in the past few days, and I don't know when they will leave." Cai'er
said.
"Has that Qing Cang left here today?" Shi Mu asked.
"Today he went to Wanjin Hall and seemed to want to purchase a batch of talismans, but he didn't buy any and came back early," Cai'er said.
"Then let's come back tomorrow." Shi Mu nodded and said.
…
Early the next morning.
A gray-robed snake demon man walked out of the courtyard and walked toward the shopping area of Chiyan City.
This person's name is Qing Cang, and he is an early-stage innate demon clan of the Earth Snake Tribe.
He came to Chiyan City this time with a heavy responsibility. He had to purchase enough supplies and return on time. The time limit for his return was getting closer and closer, but he still had a batch of talismans that he had not purchased, which made him a little depressed.
Speaking of which, mid-level and above talismans are not easy to buy even in Chiyan City. They are only sold in some barbarian cities farther east where there are more people and barbarians.
Qingcang cursed in his heart. He had no favorable impressions of the human and barbarian races. If this procurement mission was not for rewards, he would never set foot in these foreign cities.
With these thoughts in his mind, he soon came to a busy street in Chiyan City.
Qingcang looked at a large store. He found out yesterday that talismans had been sold here before and walked in.
A quarter of an hour later, he walked out, his face covered by a gray cloak showing some anxiety. He had gained nothing in this shop.
Qingcang took out a map of Chiyan City, looked at it for a few times, then put the map away and walked in one direction.
Most of the day later, Qingcang walked out of a not-so-large shop, feeling depressed.
After a busy day, the harvest was very small. I only bought a few low-level talismans. There was no trace of the mid-level talismans required by the clan.
If you fail to complete the task, the reward will be wasted.
"Shitou, you are really lucky to be able to buy these talismans at such a low price." A voice suddenly passed into Qingcang's ears.
Qingcang's nerves, which had been tortured by these talismans in the past few days, were extremely sensitive. As soon as he heard the word "talisman", he immediately turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound, and his expression was startled.
On the street not far in front of him, a young human man walked by, but it was a colorful parrot on his shoulder who spoke.
"Haha, it's just luck. That guy was in urgent need of spiritual stones, so he sold those talismans to me at a low price. With these twenty-odd mid-level talismans, I can have a good time in Shiwan Volcano." The young man
said.
The colorful parrot nodded repeatedly.
The two of them were talking, walking past Qingcang, and were about to turn around the intersection.
"Friend, please stay." Qingcang's thoughts changed rapidly, he suppressed his disgust for the human race and chased after him.
"What's the matter, Your Excellency?" The young man stopped and looked back. He found that the person coming was a demon clan, and his eyes were full of alertness.
"Haha, please don't get me wrong, I just heard you and this person... talking about the talisman, so I want to ask for advice." Qingcang forced a smile on his ugly face and said.
"You eavesdropped on our conversation?" The young man's face darkened.
"I happened to be passing by just now. I just heard it. I have no ill intentions." Qing Cang said, gritted his teeth, took out a medium-grade water attribute spirit stone, and stuffed it into the young man's hand.
The guarded look on the young man's face suddenly relaxed. He turned his hand and put away the spirit stone. A smile appeared on his face and his tone softened a bit:
"Haha, that's it. What do you want to know?"
"I just heard that you seem to have just bought a batch of medium-grade talismans. I wonder if you can tell me where you bought them. To be honest, I urgently need a batch of talismans, but it is really difficult to buy them in Chiyan City."
Qing Cang secretly looked at Shi Mu and said this.
"Oh, I bought it from a Taoist friend I know well. He is a talisman master and can draw medium-grade talismans, but I don't know if he still has any inventory on hand at the moment." The young man replied casually.
.
"I don't know where the Talisman Master lives. Could you please help me recommend him? I'd be very grateful." Qingcang said, gritting his teeth and taking out a middle-grade spiritual stone and handing it to the young man.
The young man was a little hesitant at first, but after getting the second spiritual stone, his hesitation immediately disappeared.
"Haha, it's a trivial matter. Your Excellency, please come with me." The young man chuckled, turned around and walked in the direction he came from.
Qingcang breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the young man's back, stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, and then followed him.
The two of them walked through the blocks one after another and gradually came to a remote area. On the way, the two of them chatted for a few words and said some indifferent words.
Qingcang glanced around for a few times, and his eyes fell on the back of the young man again, with a trace of hesitation flashing in his eyes.
"That talisman master friend of Taoist friend Shi seems to live in a remote place." Qingcang walked a few steps, caught up with the young man, and asked.
"Well, that man has a weird personality and doesn't like crowds. He said he needed a quiet place to draw talismans, so he moved to such a remote place. By the way, it's not far ahead." The young man smiled and pointed.
He said while looking at a small gray courtyard in front of him.
Qingcang nodded, a strange color flashing in his eyes.
The two of them came to the door of the small gray courtyard. The young man didn't knock on the door, just opened the door and walked in.
Qingcang glanced around the courtyard for a few times and then walked in.
At this moment, the scenery in front of him changed. Wherever there was still a small courtyard, large red lights appeared in all directions, turning into large seas of fire, covering the sky and the sun in all directions, and pressing towards Qingcang.
"No, it's a magic circle! Despicable human being, I'm going to kill you!"
Qingcang's expression changed drastically, and he gave a sharp shout. The black light on his body shone brightly, tearing the black robe on his body, forming a shield to protect his whole body.
At the same time, black scales appeared on his body, covering his whole body in an instant.
Just as the protective scales took shape, a fist with a red glove came from the side and hit Qingcang's protective light shield.
"Bang" sound!
The protective light shield in front of the red fist looked like paper and could be easily penetrated.
The red fist pierced Qingcang's back and came out from his back and chest. The black scales did not offer any resistance.
Qingcang's heart was broken by a fist, a mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth, his eyes were full of disbelief, and his aura declined rapidly.
He turned his head with some difficulty and looked behind him.
The young man just stood behind him and looked over expressionlessly.
Qingcang looked at the young man with malicious eyes, but the look in his eyes quickly dimmed.
The young man, Shi Mu, gently withdrew his arm, and Qing Cang's body fell limply to the ground.
He waved his hand, and a somewhat crude storage bracelet flew up from Qingcang's hand and landed in his hand.
At this moment, a black light flashed, and Qingcang's body gradually narrowed and elongated, turning into a black python, two or three feet long.
Shi Mu's eyes flashed, and he put away Qingcang's storage bracelet. Red flames ignited on his palms, burning away the blood on his hands.
He waved his hand, and the surrounding formation fire dissipated and returned to the small courtyard, but the outermost red shield did not disappear.
In the small courtyard, Leng Yuetong, Hu Sailei and Yu Yi are all standing here. This is Yu Yi's small courtyard.
"Brother Shi is really powerful. The innate demon clan has no power to attack you." Leng Yuetong glanced at the corpse on the ground and said in admiration.
"No need to say these words, let's do it quickly." Shi Mu turned over his hand and took out a golden dagger, stabbed it into the black python, took out a black demon pill, and handed it to Leng Yuetong.
"Brother Shi, follow me into the house. I'll cast the spell right now." Leng Yuetong took the demon pill and looked at it before his eyes, then turned and walked towards the house.
"You come in too. We don't have much time. Now, disguise me as that snake demon." Shi Mu said to Hussere.
Husse Lei quickly agreed and followed Shi Mu.
"This snake demon corpse is no longer of use, you should get rid of it and be careful not to reveal its flaws." Shi Mu thought for a while and then ordered Yu Yi.
"Yes." Yu Yi agreed.
Shi Mu and the other three walked into the house, and it took more than an hour until the sky was getting dark before the door was opened.
First a black figure walked out. He had a snake head and black scales on his arms. He exuded waves of demonic aura. He was no different from Qing Cang who had been killed before. Naturally, he was Shi Mu after his disguise.
Leng Yuetong and Husse Lei walked out immediately. Leng Yuetong looked a little tired, as if he had used a secret technique.
"How?" Shi Mu asked Yu Yi, who was walking towards here, with the same voice as Qing Cang.
"It's perfect, at least I can't see any flaws." Yu Yi looked at Shi Mu carefully and said.
"That's good." Shi Mu nodded, waved his hand and took out a gray robe, which was exactly the same as the one Qingcang was wearing before.
"Miss Leng, thank you very much this time. Just wait here for a while, which may be a year at most or seven or eight months at least. If I achieve my goal, I will definitely come back to help you." Shi Mu said to Leng Yuetong.
.
"The little girl naturally trusts Brother Shi, but sneaking into Lingtian Peak is extremely dangerous. Brother Shi must be careful," Leng Yuetong said.
Shi Mu nodded, looked at Yu Yi and Husse Lei, and said:
"You have worked hard these days. Take advantage of this time to rest and wait for news from me."
"Yes." After a while, Hussere agreed in unison.
Shi Mu nodded, turned around and walked out of the door, walking towards the distance.
Leng Yuetong looked at Shi Mu's back gradually blending into the night, feeling a little dazed. (To be continued.)
