Chapter 142: Capture the Demon
Zhao Gang found the fake old man as bait, just to confirm his discovery and speculation, and he didn't mean to kill the fake old man, otherwise he wouldn't have jumped out and shouted loudly when he saw the black shadow of the suspected murderer appear on the legal platform.
But the monster's courage was far beyond Zhao Gang's expectations, and after hearing his roar, he didn't panic at all, he was extremely calm and self-assured, and he knocked on the brain of the fake old man, and ate the brain as if no one was around.
If you want to say that the fake old way is also very wide-hearted, relying on the ambush in the courtyard on all sides, with Zhang Gang and many other catchers to protect him, he fell asleep with peace of mind on the legal platform, and even had a smile on his face before he died, and he didn't know what kind of sweet dream he was having, maybe he was counting the thousand taels of compensation that Zhao Gang promised him in his dream, but he died without pain.
Although it is said that the fake old man is greedy and selfish, has done many immoral things, and there is nothing to regret when he dies, and it can even be said that he deserves it, but after all, he was killed in front of himself, and he was killed when he spoke out, Zhao Gang felt that he had been nakedly provoked and insulted, and he immediately became angry and thundered.
"Slaughter it for Lao Tzu!" Zhao Gang roared angrily.
Whoosh –
With Zhao Gang's order, the archers who had already been in ambush immediately fired arrows, and the sharp arrows pierced the night sky and shot overwhelmingly at the long-tailed monsters on the altar. The Dharma platform is seven or eight feet tall, and the long-tailed youkai standing on it becomes the best target.
Seeing that the arrows were reaching his body, the long-tailed youkai didn't dodge, but only cared about eating his food.
Zhao Gang and the others couldn't help but secretly rejoice in their hearts, but the next moment the expressions on their faces suddenly stiffened, and they saw a dense number of arrows shooting at the long-tailed monster and sparks splashing around, as if they were shooting on steel armor, and they were all bounced off.
"Shhhh
The long-tailed monster seemed to be enraged, and slammed into the edge of the platform, grabbed the edge of the platform with its front paws, and poked out its head and roared at Zhao Gang and the others under the stage. Its roar is very special, hoarse and sharp, like the sound of a poisonous snake spitting letters, and it is uncontrollable to listen to the ears and make people feel frightened.
With the faint light of Mars, Zhao Gang and the others saw the whole picture of it clearly, and it was exactly the same as the rumors, with scales all over the body, bulging eyes, outturned nostrils, no upper lip, and a mouthful of fine and sharp teeth, which was very scary.
"Net!" Zhao Gang ordered again.
Four catchers obeyed the order to cut off four thick ropes in the four corners of the courtyard, and a large net with barbs fell from the sky, holding the long-tailed monster and the entire altar.
"Hiss-" The long-tailed monster rushed left and right in the net, roaring, and claws and teeth, but the net rope was extremely tough and strong, and no matter how hard it tried, it couldn't tear it apart and bite constantly.
The rope of this large net is specially made, which is mixed with a lot of dragon tendon grass, and has been soaked in a special medicinal solution for half a year, which is specially used to arrest high-level cultivators.
"Good!"
"Beautiful!"
Seeing that the long-tailed monster was caught in the net and could not break free, the group immediately let out a cheer of victory.
Click-
The long-tailed monster's claws were very powerful, and with one claw, it smashed the magic platform and drilled down the broken hole, trying to escape from below.
"Hmph!" Zhao Gang snorted coldly and shouted, "Pull!"
With a few bangs, a net broke out from under the ground below the altar, and the four sides hung together with the large net buckled from above, forming a huge net cage, enveloping the entire altar and the long-tailed monster together.
The long-tailed youkai hid in the shelf of the Dharma platform and did not move.
"Zhao Tou, what is this? Is it a monster or a ghost? A catcher quickly approached Zhang Gang and asked, a relieved smile on his tired face.
"I don't know what it is, I've never heard of it. Zhao Gang shook his head, with a long-lost smile on his face, and then ordered: "Just in case, add two more nets to this beast, and fix them with iron rods on the sides, one for two steps." A fire was lit, and a corner and a fire shone brightly for me. Don't touch it tonight to prevent it from escaping with unknown tricks, and let it have nothing to hide when the sun comes out tomorrow. Tomorrow morning, I will go to report to the lord of the city and ask him to go to the city defenders to borrow an octagonal crossbow and shoot this beast to death before talking about anything else. ”
Hearing Zhao Gang say that he was going to go to the city defenders to borrow an octagonal crossbow, everyone couldn't help but be taken aback. The octagonal crossbow is a weapon of great lethality for attacking and defending the city, and the large octagonal crossbow of ten people can easily shoot through the true yuan power defense of cultivators below the sixth heaven of the sea realm, and the giant octagonal crossbow blessed with spiritual power is said to be able to break through even the half-step true yuan power defense of the nine heavens of the sea realm.
Someone couldn't help but say, "Boss, as for using the octagonal crossbow?"
"Heh-" Zhao Gang's eyes widened, and he glared at the man: "Why don't you go in and catch it for Lao Tzu?" ”
The man suddenly shook his head like a rattle, and said with a bitter face: "My thin arms and legs, it's not enough to stuff it between its teeth when I go in, so let's avoid it." ”
"Get out of here and get to work!" Zhao Gang scolded with a smile.
"Boss, this credit can't be snatched away by the miscellaneous minions of the Special Operations Division. Someone reminded.
"Dog's day!" mentioned that Zhao Gang of the Special Operations Division was angry and shouted: "Cheer up Lao Tzu and guard it, never allow the miscellaneous pieces of the Special Operations Division to approach, and if you don't listen to the dissuasion, you will directly do it for Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu will be responsible for the crippled and dead!"

Suddenly, there was a sound of something breaking in the cage, and everyone followed the sound, but their vision was blocked by the Dharma platform, so they couldn't see what the long-tailed monster was doing. But the sound of chewing and sucking that followed made them think of a creepy image. They looked at the top of the altar, and the corpse of the fake old man was indeed gone, and they didn't need to think about it to know that they had been dragged into the platform by the long-tailed monster.
"Bastard!" After hearing the voice and reacting to what the long-tailed monster was doing, Zhao Gang suddenly jumped like thunder, asked for a bow and arrow, pulled the bow and arrows, the sharp tip of the arrow flashed with blue light, and with a whoosh, it broke through the air and shot through the magic platform.
Bite!
There was a screeching crash.
Hiss –
Then came the roar of a long-tailed youkai.
Click-
The long-tailed youkai smashed the wooden plank and escaped from the altar, but was blocked by a three-layered net.
Under the bright light of the fire, the full picture of the long-tailed monster was clearly displayed in everyone's field of vision, making everyone's scalp tingle and hair standing on end.
"Holy shit!" Zhao Gang drew his bow and arrow again, and shot a sword at the long-tailed monster, but it only sparked on the scale armor of the long-tailed monster.
"Haha-what an invulnerable beast!" Zhao Gang threw away his bow and arrows, laughed angrily, and said: "Wait for Lao Tzu to borrow an octagonal crossbow to see if you can still be arrogant! Dog's day, you beast has killed so many people, Lao Tzu will definitely peel you and cramp, chop you up and feed the dog!"
"Chief, this beast's scale armor is invulnerable, and it can make two good pieces of soft armor for protection!" one of them stared at the long-tailed monster's fine scale armor and made an idea.
"Good idea!" Zhao Gang also lit up when he heard this.
Hiss –
The long-tailed monster roared at Zhao Gang and the others, turned around and rushed back into the altar, and soon remembered the creepy chewing sound inside.
"Give Lao Tzu a good look! Lao Tzu will go to the city government and ask him to go to the city defenders to borrow an octagonal crossbow!" Zhao Gang said a sentence indignantly, turned around and strode away.
Out of Liaoyuan Lane in the east of the city, Zhao Gang turned onto the avenue and went straight to the mansion of the lord of the city government in the north eight cities. Walking through the wide streets, there was a dead silence all around, except for the sound of his own footsteps echoing in the streets.
Zhao Gang has been hunting for many years, often in contact with dead people and corpses, and has long been trained to be a tiger guts, so he is not afraid at all when walking on the dead street, but he suddenly felt that the back of his neck and shoulders are a little sore, and he raised his hand and pinched and beat it twice, but there was no relief at all. I think it's because of overwork these days, and I think that after this case is over, I will go to Zuimenglou to find a woman with excellent skills to massage and enjoy it, and the corners of my mouth can't help but hook up a touch of arc.
Today is the second day of May, and there is no moon in the sky, only stars.
Under the dim starlight, on the dead street, Zhao Gang suddenly stopped, two bloodshot eyes staring at the ground, and an extremely frightened expression appeared on his face.
There was a vague shadow on the bluestone ground, which was reflected on the ground by the starlight, and the terrible thing was that there was a shadow on the head of his shadow, with a round head and a long tail, as if a monkey was holding his head and squatting on his shoulder.
Hiss –
