Chapter 49: The Demon of Linshui Village (Part I)

Changning went back to the Sword Peak directly after leaving Liuxia Peak, Qi Yao was already waiting for her in the living room, he took care of most of the affairs, "Linshui Village is on the border of the southern country, we might as well go by boat, this is faster, and there is a place to stay in the village." I asked Senior Sister He, and she also agreed to take the boat. "Although monks don't have to think about food, clothing, housing and transportation like ordinary people, they still have to solve the problem of accommodation, and they don't have to rest and meditate to repair.

"Okay, I'd like to take a boat too." Dao Tong cultivated differently, Changning used Pegasus to hurry, it must have arrived overnight, but the others definitely couldn't keep up with her speed, she took out the map she brought from Liuxia Peak, "This is the map near the southern country that I found." The map in Changning's hand is not an ancient paper map, but a real image projection of the southern country, which was given to her by the master, "Senior brother, do you know the specific situation of Linshui Village?" ”

"Linshui Village is a small seaside village, and life has always been relatively stable, but recently the livestock in the village have been missing one after another, and the village chief sent several warriors to patrol in turn, but they didn't find any clues, so they reported to the nearby Xiaguan." Qi Yao recounted the matter in a steady tone, "I guess there may be some kind of little demon beast or wandering corpse in the village. ”

The other four Dao boys sitting in the living room all looked very happy, and they had the opportunity to take on the task, but they didn't want to be this kind of trivial matter of looking for domestic animals, and they would hit these little guys who wanted to do a big job. They also wanted to have a shocking demon, and they had a vigorous fight with it, and finally they were seriously injured and vomited blood, and their potential exploded, and they killed the demon with a sword.

After listening to Changning, he suddenly felt that it was not easy, it was really difficult for them to find this kind of task, the lower view of the Taishang Sect was all over the subject countries of the four directions, and each lower view had outer disciples stationed there, and those disciples accepted the worship of nearby villagers, and they also had to solve various problems for the villagers. This kind of trivial matter of the disappearance of domestic animals can't be solved in the village, isn't it okay for the state capital and the capital to look at it? In order to train them step by step, the gentlemen are also well-intentioned.

"If you want to do big things, you have to start from small things." Changning comforted the companions, "This time it seems to be a trivial matter, but if we don't finish it seriously, the gentlemen won't even do it for us next time." "Those who can sit in the living room are not ordinary children, after listening to Changning's words, the expression on his face changed from casual to cautious, Changning tapped the jade slip with his hand, the jade slip hung in the air, spewing out a clear light, and a mountain and river landform appeared in the light mist, "Linshui Village is close to the sea, there is a sea market nearby, if we can complete the task smoothly, we can go to the sea market to play for a long time." ”

Changning's words made everyone excited, "Senior Sister Shen, don't worry, we will definitely seriously investigate the whereabouts of the demon!" ”

Changning nodded with a smile, instructed them a few words, and let everyone go back to rest. Qi Yao waited for everyone to leave before asking Changning: "Senior sister, go to the sea market to ask for a sea boat, your ship is a sea ship?" Qi Yao asked.

"This boat was given to me by Aweng, and he said that he could travel the near sea." Changning said that her boat was the same boat she and her grandfather took when they rushed to Taishangzong, and Shen Jian gave this boat to Changning before going to sea.

Qi Yao nodded, seeing that Changning did not rest, but took out a piece of amber-colored wood and carved it, he couldn't help but ask strangely: "Senior sister, what are you doing here?" ”

"This is peach, I'm going to carve a few peachwood nails." Changning said, the monster is not afraid, a sword cut is, the zombie is more tricky, invulnerable to the knife and gun is not easy to damage, the door of the classics have said that the way to deal with zombies, to use peach wood nails or jujube kernels seven, nail into the back of the corpse, set fire to it, the sound of tsk, blood gushing bones.

Qi Yao also took out a knife to carve peach wood nails with Changning, the two didn't know how many zombies there were, Changning has always liked to be prepared, and Qi Yao carved seven seven forty-nine peach wood nails, and prepared the luggage and diet of six people overnight, Changning has opened the valley, but the others can't, and the two are ready to go back to rest when they are ready. They rested late, and He Wanran was not early, and she was the same as the two of them, and she only rested after preparing all the travel tools she could think of. There were a total of twelve people in their group, whether it was Changning or He Wanran's ship, it was enough for twelve people, but the two were still testing each other, and they couldn't fully trust each other, so they simply acted separately.

Early the next morning, there was still half an hour before the dawn, Changning took the Taoist children to the lake to meet, she didn't like to pinch the point, and she didn't like others to wait for her, but she didn't expect that when they arrived at the lake, He Wanran was almost the time to come, the two saw each other, first stunned, and then smiled at the same time.

"Senior Sister Shen, you came so early." He Wanran said with a smile.

"I like to arrive early, and Senior Sister He came early." Changning said with a smile.

He Wanran heard that she still called herself junior sister, her expression was a little helpless, she already knew from the master that Changning had a heavenly eye, and she saw the existence of her and Yanran, and she also understood why Changning still called herself Senior Sister He. She is half a month older than Changning, but Yanran has always liked to call people senior brother and senior sister, saying that this can make people let themselves go more, He Wanran can't understand her sister's thoughts, she is used to being a senior sister. But the title is a trivial matter, she didn't take it to heart, after everyone sat on the bamboo raft across the lake, she asked Changning: "What do you think about the demons in Linshui Village?" ”

"We haven't been there yet, so it's hard to judge, but I guess it's a little monster or a wandering corpse." Changning said yesterday's analysis with everyone.

Seeing her cooperating, He Wanran was sure in his heart that as long as Senior Sister Shen didn't anger her because of Yan, things would be easy to do, "I also think it should be these two demons that are responsible." Saying that, she told Changning about her plan yesterday, the plan was very detailed, and she didn't ignore it because it was a trivial matter, Changning listened very carefully, and after everyone got out of the cave, He Wanran took the initiative to board Changning's ship to discuss.

Shen Changning has been inexplicably found fault with He Yanran for so long before, although He Wanran does not feel guilty, but when she encounters trouble, she often bows her head first, which can be regarded as an effort to improve the relationship between the two. The two sat down and discussed for most of the day, and the original delicate and tense atmosphere was relieved a lot, and everyone could talk and laugh with each other.

He Wanran heard that Senior Sister Shen and the others had discussed going to the Sea Market after the matter was over, and couldn't help but smile and said: "Most of the Sea Markets here belong to the Beihai Dragon Palace, and the Sea Clans in the Sea Market like the novelty of Middle-earth, if Senior Sister has Middle-earth strange things, she will definitely be able to exchange them for a lot of sea treasures." ”

"Really?" Changning was moved when he heard this, it happened that the old patriarch of the Shen family was about to celebrate his eighty-second birthday, and she could exchange some health things from the sea market as a gift.

He Wanran saw that his companion heard that Changning was going to Haishi after that, he looked envious, thought for a while and smiled: "I am quite familiar with this place, if my junior sister does not give up, I can be a guide." ”

"It's best that my junior sister is willing to lead the way." Changning said.

When it came to playing, everyone relaxed, thinking about how to play in the sea market. He Wanran coughed lightly, "Play is secondary, and the task is the most important." ”

Everyone's expressions tightened, and they hurriedly responded seriously, Changning watched with a smile, thinking that it seemed to be the same when he was in elementary school before, no matter what task the teacher assigned, he would complete it as if it were the top priority in life, and it was still the simplest child.

He Wanran and Shen Changning are all internal disciples of Yuanying Da Ability, and the magic weapons used are all the best, everyone is talking and laughing while sailing towards Linshui Village, everyone does not take this small task in their eyes, but they also know the importance of livestock to ordinary farmers, there is no delay on the road, the cabin is full of spirit beads, and most of the day's work is there.

The village chief of Linshui Village and the owner of the lower view received the summons early in the morning, waited at the dock early, and saw the two magnificent boats coming to the dock, and were taken aback, and when the Taoist children in the door this time came, but they didn't want the two big boats to be together with a total of only twelve people, the two couldn't help but be speechless, and knew in their hearts that the Taoist children who came here must be extraordinary, otherwise it would be impossible to have such a big pomp.

"My brother and sister have worked hard all the way." Like the village chief, he had been a Taoist child of the Taishang Sect, but he did not pass the guΓ² entrance test and could not become a formal disciple, so he returned to his hometown to take care of the township while cultivating. The two were dark-skinned and strong, more like ordinary fishermen on the seashore than monks. Changning also knew why the sect had to accept apprentices once every ten years after seeing such a big industry as Taishangzong, and it was wide in and strict out, there were not so many disciples, and no one maintained such a large industry. In the final analysis, most of the Dao Tong and outer disciples can only be regarded as employees of the sect, and there are only a few people who can really enter the core.

"The two senior brothers are polite." Changning and He Wanran got off the boat, both of them were born in famous families, and most of the companions around them were from families, and the etiquette was in place, not to mention how the minor cultivators were, at least their words and deeds showed the demeanor of elite disciples of the big school.

The gentle and polite attitude of the people made the village and the master feel a lot better about them, the disciples of the family are pampered, and the pomp and circumstance of travel are not important, as long as they are willing to do things seriously. Everyone washes their hands with their faces, first follow the Lord to respectfully look at the statues of the gods, the statues of each lower courtyard of the Taishang Sect are different, the one in the center is the ancestor of the Taishang Sect, the one on the left is the ancestor of the Taishang Sect, and the one on the right is the land or river of the mountain gods around the lower courtyard.

"The junior sisters have worked hard all the way, do you want to go into the house to have a cup of tea and rest for a while?" The village elders are sophisticated, and they can see that among these Taoist children, Changning and He Wanran are the mainstays.

"No need, senior brother will take us to see what is going on." He Wanran has always acted vigorously and resolutely.

"Are the missing animals skeletal or are they left behind?" Changning also asked.

"To stay is to stayβ€”" The village chief hesitated.

He Wanran raised his eyebrows, "Senior brother, if there is any inconvenience, just say it directly." ”

"Those wreckage look terrifying, I'm afraid the junior sisters will not be able to stand it when they see it." The corpses of the animals of the village chief, if they really showed these two delicate-looking junior sisters, they would be frightened, they would not be able to afford to bear the guilt, and these two junior sisters would know that they were from extraordinary backgrounds at a glance.

He Wanran said: "Take us to see." The tone was completely unacceptable to the village chief.

The village chief looked at Changning again, and saw that although she smiled and didn't say anything, she obviously didn't take his words to heart, he glanced at the viewer, and said helplessly, We have all reminded you, if you are scared and crying, you can't blame us! The sect is also yes, how to send female dolls over, what can these little female dolls do? They are quite optimistic about the heroic Qi Yao, could it be that this child is cleaning up the mess for the two female dolls?

The village chief led everyone to a secluded place at the end of the village, "Those dead livestock have been temporarily resettled in an abandoned old house at the end of the village. ”

Changning's five senses are sensitive, and she smelled the unpleasant smell before she arrived at the old house, she frowned slightly, pinched a law, a small crane emerged from her fingertips, and rushed to the old house with a soft whistle, and when she arrived at the door of the old house, she turned into a red flame, and she didn't know what was ignited, and the smell was even stronger, and everyone covered their noses.

He Wanran frowned and used aura to separate the stench, "It's so thick, isn't it really a walking corpse?" She strode into the old house. There are a lot of shriveled animal corpses scattered in the spacious hall of the house, and these corpses have a common feature that they are shriveled and dry corpses, but their eyes are wide open, with the dilapidated and gloomy scene of the old house, it really looks like a haunted house. However, none of the little Taoist children who came were frightened, but looked at these animals calmly one by one.

Changning handed He Wanran a pair of gloves, she also wore a pair herself, and the two squatted down to look at the corpses of these animals, most of these corpses were pigs and cattle and other large animals, as well as many chickens, ducks, birds and birds, without exception, there was a laceration on the neck, "Senior brother, didn't you find the walking corpse nearby?" He Wanran asked, this wound looks like a walking corpse, can't the village chief and the Guan master control a walking corpse?

Changning printed the images of these animals one by one into the bamboo slips, and attached an objective description of the injuries, and the Taoist children she brought also went everywhere, and He Wanran motioned for her companion to go with her.

The village chief and the watchman were amazed to see them behaving in this way, for they were well trained. The viewer smiled bitterly: "Speaking of which, I am not afraid of the jokes of the two junior sisters, Lao Chen and I kept vigil day and night, and we didn't close our eyes for three days and three nights, and we didn't catch half a ghost, but let it eat three more pigs under our noses." Speaking of this viewer, I gritted my teeth with hatred, and it was a great shame.

The smell in the old house was really not good, and when everyone came out of the old house, Chang Ning said: "Maybe it's not a walking corpse, ordinary walking corpses don't have such a sensitive speed, and walking corpses with such skills won't be interested in the blood of domestic animals, right?" "They should love human blood more.

"Could it be some kind of demon beast that lives on blood?" Qi Yao thought for a while and said, "Could it be a bat demon?" ”

He Wanran's eyes flashed slightly, and a sword light emerged from her back, swimming in the village; Changning's eyes closed slightly, and his divine sense probed He Wanran inch by inch, and the sword light had not yet arrived. The village chief and the master of the two looked at each other and smiled bitterly, it is really better than people to die, and goods are still better than goods, they have not been able to do this for decades, these two little girls are more powerful than the other, and they underestimated them before.

After the two of them explored the vicinity of the village, Changning shook his head lightly at He Wanran, and He Wanran said: "There is no demonic qi here, only yin and evil qi." ”

"Is there really a great walking corpse?" The village chief looked solemn, "Let's report to the sect and let them send someone." "A walking corpse with superb cultivation is invulnerable and not afraid of the five elements, but it is not something that ordinary foundation building monks can resist.

The village chief's words made the little ones very dissatisfied, what do you mean by sending people, aren't they people sent by the sect?
