A stranger came from outside, heard what Zhang Hu said, and praised him.
Zhang Hu looked at the other person and saw an old man.
Long white beard.
He has the air of a hermit and an expert.
"Your Excellency..." Zhang Hu clasped his fists and asked. The origin of the other party was unknown and he could not be offended at will. Then, he saw the token on the old man's waist, his expression did not change, and he said hurriedly: "I didn't expect it to be the old layman Yunxiang. I'm here.
I'm blind and didn't recognize it, please don't blame me, the old layman Yunxiang."
The token around the old man's waist is engraved with an auspicious cloud.
It was given by the imperial court. I heard that the old layman Yunxiang saved a prince from the hands of a great demon, and the imperial court thanked him for it. It was a special gift. As long as the holder of the token can go in and out of any place, he will not bow to the official.
Wait for the privilege.
Old layman Yunxiang stroked his beard and asked with a smile: "You said before that the Thousand Faced Demon is really heading towards Qingyang Town?"
Zhang Hu said respectfully: "Yes, the Thousand-faced Demon has led the group of demons towards Qingyang Town."
Old layman Yunxiang smiled and said nothing, and then left. Zhang Hu was confused and didn't understand what the other party meant, so he didn't think much about it.
Outside.
After the old layman Yunxiang left here, he came to a mansion and recruited people to kill the Thousand-Faced Demon. Rumor has it that the Thousand-Faced Demon is the most magical of all demons.
It can accumulate the strength of the person being swallowed into the body, but the Thousand-Faced Demon cannot use it.
Therefore, if you can kill the Thousand-Faced Demon and obtain the object in the Thousand-Faced Demon's body that accumulates the strength of the swallowed people, you can become stronger.
He is confident that his strength is good.
Enough to face the Thousand Faced Demon.
And he can kill the thousand-faced demon, which is absolute confidence.
Qingyang Town, among the fields.
A figure planted the ground skillfully. As a beginner who has just started working in the fields, it is already very good to be able to do this step.
“Farming is really a joyful thing.”
Lin Fan turned over the soil and felt very contented, especially since the vegetables he had sown some time ago had sprouted, which was even more exciting for him.
He straightened his body and looked up at the sky. Although there was no sweat, he pretended to wipe his forehead, just like ordinary farming. When he was tired from working, he took a short rest.
"Mayor, we can help you farm."
The people loved the young mayor very much, not to mention that the mayor was so powerful that he was the patron saint of all of them. Seeing that the mayor was still busy farming, they seemed to dedicate their meager efforts to help.
The mayor takes care of the hard work.
Lin Fan smiled and said: "It's okay. I like farming. Farming makes me feel very happy."
When he devoted himself seriously to farming, he could feel the magic of nature. When the roots took root and sprouted, the natural scene had a slight impact on him.
It seems to be a kind of realization.
Some people cultivated good land and did not rush to leave. Instead, they stayed in the fields and chatted with the mayor from time to time, just to have more contact with the mayor.
To them, the mayor is really good. He is worthy of being the son of the former mayor. He is kind-hearted and friendly to others. He has never bullied anyone.
A few days later!
The quiet and peaceful Qingyang Town was broken.
A crazy and embarrassed old man broke into Qingyang Town.
"Help."
"Help."
"Don't kill me, it's too scary."
The old man rushed into Qingyang Town like a madman and shouted for help when he saw people. Seeing this situation, the people around him had only one thought, that is, he must have encountered a monster.
By chance, he survived from the demon's hands, but he also suffered a huge blow and looked crazy.
When the enthusiastic and kind-hearted people of Qingyang Town saw this situation, they naturally would not sit idly by and ignore it. Instead, they took care of the old man and asked someone to notify the mayor.
Mayor Lin is already the backbone of their hearts, and everything depends on how the mayor solves it.
soon.
When Lin Fan saw this crazy old man, he slowly walked forward and said gently: "Old man, what's wrong with you?"
Old layman Yunxiang shouted frantically, "Help, help."
It is difficult to communicate, and the other party is frightened and mentally disturbed.
Seeing the old man hugging his thigh, Lin Fan sighed, raised his hand, gently stroked his head, and whispered:
"Everyone has fear, but don't worry, you will be safe by my side and no one can hurt you."
Old layman Yunxiang opened his mouth and looked into Lin Fan's eyes.
A gentle smile.
A look that contains a special gaze.
For some reason, the fear in old layman Yunxiang's heart dissipated little by little.
It's like being wrapped in a ball of warm water.
Lin Fan's smile was bright, like the sun, bringing endless warmth and dispelling the fear in his heart.
For the old layman Yunxiang, it was as if he was close to the source of warmth, and his whole person was enveloped by an atmosphere of peace of mind.
Gradually.
He is awake.
"I……"
There is light in the eyes of the old layman Yunxiang.
Lin Fan said: "What have you experienced? Can you tell me about it? Maybe I can help you."
It is a terrible thing to think back on. It must not be simple to cause such panic to the old layman Yunxiang. But for the old layman Yunxiang, under Lin Fan's majestic glory, he has no fear in his heart.
"The Thousand-Faced Demon, I met the Thousand-Faced Demon. He was very scary. Everyone died tragically in front of me. It was all my fault."
Old layman Yunxiang cried bitterly. Thinking of that scene, he shuddered and suffered great trauma in his heart.
Confidence in one's own strength and underestimation of the Thousand-Faced Demon led to this tragedy.
"My condolences." Lin Fan consoled him.
He could only gently caress the head of the old layman Yunxiang, with skillful movements and showing concern. Alas, it turns out that all the elderly are just like Lao Zhang. Their hearts are so fragile and need the care of others.
"Who are you?" asked the old layman Yunxiang.
"My name is Lin Fan." Lin Fan smiled.
The people around said: "This is Qingyang Town, and this is our mayor. The fact that you can come here means that you are safe now. Our mayor is very powerful and can protect you. During this period, you will be here."
Let’s stay here.”
The warm-hearted people did not ask about his identity. Seeing his tragic experience, they all felt sympathy and would help him if they stayed here temporarily.
Old layman Yunxiang was stunned.
Qingyang Town...
It was the mayor whom the person I met in the city mentioned.
"Mayor Lin, let's go quickly and take everyone out of here. The Thousand-faced Demon is going to destroy this place. It is a terrifying super demon that cannot be resisted." Old layman Yunxiang said in a panic.
Thinking of the Thousand Faced Demon's strength, he shuddered.
Too terrible.
It's extremely scary, how could there be such a super monster.
Lin Fan smiled and said: "It's okay, I will protect this place. As long as I am here, no monster will harm everyone here."
In the circle of demon exterminators, Old layman Yunxiang is a well-known senior and master, but in Qingyang Town, no one really knows him. What he said made people who thoughtlessly worship Mayor Lin
To the people, it didn't pose much of a threat, and they all believed in the mayor.
At this time, the old layman Yunxiang wanted to say something, but when he met Lin Fan's eyes.
He could only sigh silently.
Why!
Now he is temporarily inseparable. The Thousand-Faced Demon remembers his aura. Even if he leaves Qingyang Town, he will still encounter the Thousand-Faced Demon, and the Thousand-Faced Demon's destination is Qingyang Town.
Staying here may help Mayor Lin.
He was very curious about Mayor Lin and followed Lin Fan during his stay in Qingyang Town, but soon he realized that something was wrong.
Mayor Lin's daily busy work is farming. When he has nothing to do, he will stroll around the town and play well with the children in the town.
He has a smile on his face every day, as if nothing ever bothers him, or even makes him angry.
Sometimes, when facing Mayor Lin's smile, he would actually feel a pressure and dare not look directly at him.
But the children in the town liked to hang around him and play playfully.
"This kind of life is indeed enviable."
"Unfortunately, under the threat of demons, everything that seems to be beautiful is only a matter of time."
Old layman Yunxiang shook his head sadly.
He was waiting to see why the Thousand-Faced Demon hadn't come yet, but he didn't think that the Thousand-Faced Demon wouldn't come. The demon would never let anyone go.
The next day.
The sun is shining brightly.
In a new day, the people are busy. For them, every day must be sufficient. The people in the fields are busy.
suddenly.
The sky suddenly changed, covered with black clouds, and a throbbing breath came.
The people stopped what they were doing and looked into the distance, as if they saw something dangerous in that distant direction.
"Ah! The demon is coming."
The people dropped their tools and ran towards the town, shouting as they ran.
"The demon is coming."
"The demon is coming."
Suddenly, the town became chaotic, and countless people picked up tools from home. Under the leadership of the mayor, they were going to fight against the demon to protect their town.
Old layman Yunxiang felt a familiar aura, his face turned pale, and he hurriedly followed the people towards the town gate.
The Thousand-Faced Demon, that’s the Thousand-Faced Demon coming.
The town gate.
The common people were holding various weapons and looking into the distance with solemn expressions. Old layman Yunxiang stood in front of the common people. He seemed very serious, but his trembling hands and fearful eyes were enough to show that he was very scared now.
"The mayor is here."
"As long as the mayor is here, we will be safe."
"Nothing wrong."
Old layman Yunxiang had an indescribable feeling when he heard that these people had such trust in the mayor. How could they know how terrifying the Thousand-faced Demon is? When you see the true form, you will know that that kind of fear comes from
Where did it come from.
Lin Fan was carrying farming tools, and Qinglian was by his side.
Everyone's expressions were tense, but Lin Fan's face was calm, with no trace of worry at all, as if to him, everything was just a simple matter.
"Mayor Lin, the Thousand-faced Demon is here." Old layman Yunxiang said.
Lin Fan said calmly: "Well, I know, I can feel that he is very powerful, but he is not the one I am looking for."
Old layman Yunxiang knew what Mayor Lin was asking about.
Demon Lord?
No matter how knowledgeable he is, he has never heard of a demon with such a name as Demon Lord.
Thinking at the same time.
What did Mayor Lin want to do with this demon lord? Could it be some kind of blood feud? This was the possibility he thought about, but the specific situation was unknown.
Gradually.
The true face of the Thousand-faced Demon appeared in front of everyone. It was a tall and terrifying body with faces with different expressions, including ferocious, angry, resentful, and wailing...
soon.
The Thousand-faced Demon stopped outside Qingyang Town and did not move. Even though there was no sound, there was a kind of coercion that enveloped everyone.
Old layman Yunxiang's body was shaking violently.
He is really afraid of the Thousand Faced Demon.
Once, when there was no conflict with the Thousand-Faced Demon, he was very careful and thought he could kill the Thousand-Faced Demon. However, it was not until he fought in person that he realized that he had overthought everything.
now.
He wasn't the only one scared.
The common people holding weapons turned pale with fear and swallowed their throats, thinking to themselves, this is what we can deal with.
The monster as tall as a hill, with its densely packed faces, is really scary.
"Wow!"
Some children cried out.
Lin Fan looked back, came to the child with a smile, and gently stroked his head, "I'm here, don't be afraid, go to mom."
Under normal circumstances, no matter who comes to comfort you, how can you say that you are not afraid if you are not afraid?
But when the child saw the mayor's smile and eyes, he instantly felt at ease. He obeyed Lin Fan's words and ran obediently to where his parents were.
After Lin Fan arranged for the scared children, he looked at the Thousand-faced Demon, which everyone was afraid of, and asked: "Hello, do you know where the Demon Lord is?"
moment.
A gloomy demonic wind swept over. This demonic wind was extremely sharp and could cut the hardest things.
Old layman Yunxiang was shocked. Just when he was about to stop the evil wind, he found that the evil wind seemed to be blocked by a mysterious force, dissipated out of thin air, and completely disappeared in front of them.
He looked at Mayor Lin in shock.
I saw Mayor Lin standing there indifferently, not moving at all, not taking any action at all, and he had no idea how he did it.
"Mayor Lin, you..." Old layman Yunxiang asked in shock.
Lin Fan waved his hand with a smile and said: "It's okay, everything is safe with me here."
If it were before.
Old layman Yunxiang might have some doubts, but now, he has no doubts at all. He feels that what he said is true, and Mayor Lin is really not as simple as he thought.
The Thousand Faced Demon was a little surprised, "Human, you were the one who killed my subordinates."
"Who is your subordinate?" Lin Fan asked.
The Thousand Faced Demon said: "Are you kidding me?"
Lin Fan shook his head and said: "I really don't know who the subordinate you are talking about is, but I can feel from your aura that you are very evil. You have killed many people. This is the place I protect. If you
Leave now and I won't argue with you, otherwise you will be beaten to death by me."
The place was very quiet.
The demons who followed the Thousand-faced Demon laughed wildly.
"Stupid humans."
"This is the biggest joke I've ever heard."
Even the Thousand Faced Demon was stunned by Lin Fan's words.
Then I saw the Thousand-faced Demon slowly bending down, approaching Lin Fan with its terrifying faces, and said grimly:
"Do you know what you're talking about?"
Every face was speaking, and the voices mixed together in a chilling way.
"You want me to beat you?" Lin Fan said.
The Thousand Faced Demon smiled, "You can give it a try."
