Chapter Fifty-Six: Horror!
Days went by in a flash.
In the past few days, according to the requirements of the Demon Eradication Hall, the joint search of the military police and patrol has come to an end, and there has been no valuable gain.
The consequence of scaring the snake is that the enemy hides deeper, and Yue Zheng, who learned the result through Lianghu, is not very surprised, and is still immersed in his daily hard practice.
In the past few days, he has been on duty step by step every day, following Xu Liang and Ghost Tooth at night, and the daytime is all used to practice "Bagua Wandering Dragon Step" and "Thunder Cannon Fist". Whether it is the change of pace of the 8864 hexagrams, or the cannon fist fight, under his hard practice, he has quickly become proficient with an extremely astonishing efficiency.
Under this kind of hard work day and night, even his parents and sisters who were settled in the Demon Removal Hall could hardly see him during the day.
However, the only thing that made Yue Zheng a little regretful or a little impatient was that he had been on duty in the East Third District for so many days, and there had been no abnormal incidents, so he had not been able to verify whether the out-of-control mutant could get the chance of the Destiny Point.
This situation lasted until the sixth day of his night duty.
The night breeze was slow, and the city was quiet under the darkness, Yue Zheng stood on top of the three-story tower, and the vigil with him was another member of the team, Ah Dong.
"Ah Yue, I heard that after you were taken away last time, the Demon Slaying Hall compensated you with a Soul Cleansing Pill?"
The long night was long, the night was boring and boring, Adong asked casually and boredly:
"I see that the changes before and after your special training are not ordinary, and the effect of that thing seems to be very good?"
Ah Dong is a demon slayer who joined the Demon Slayer Hall a year and a half ago, although he is still a reserve demon slayer, but he has a lot of experience. In the past few days of vigil, the two have gradually become familiar with each other from being unfamiliar at the beginning.
Faced with his question, Yue Zheng smiled, and said with a blushing face and a heartbeat:
"Of course, I also think it's incredible, Deputy Lieutenant Tiger said that the effect of this thing varies from person to person, maybe my physique is more special. ”
"Alas, you're lucky kid too, I know that several official demon slayers are accumulating merit and silver dollars, and they all want to change their necks to one of these things, and reserve demon slayers like us can't even touch the sidelines. ”
Ah Dong sighed enviously:
"I knew that there was such a good thing, and I also wanted to be captured by the ghosts and gods once......"
After a few days of getting along, Yue Zheng knew that Ah Dong was just joking, and replied casually:
"Don't talk nonsense, you have really saved enough money and merits, are you willing to change the Spirit Cutting Pill for yourself?"
Ah Dong pouted: "Of course I won't change it, if I have so much money and merits, I will definitely ask the higher-level demon slayer to buy the best healing secret medicine, and cure my mother's illness first." ”
Yue Zheng turned his head, his gaze moving slightly:
"Just because of your filial piety, your mother's illness will definitely be cured. ”
The demon slayers who are on the front line of the battle and often have to face unimaginable dangers are mostly people with excellent talents but ordinary family backgrounds. The Ah Dong in front of him was originally just the son of a carpenter, but there was an old lady in the family who had tuberculosis and had been sick in bed for several years.
And in the entire Demon Eradication Hall, there are not a few people who have a similar situation with Adong.
"I've borrowed your good words. ”
Ah Dong confidently patted the handle of the knife on his waist, and looked at the forehead guard tied to Yue Zheng's forehead:
"It doesn't matter how you're doing, right?"
The breathing method has a special suppression effect on the evil eye of the eyebrows all the time, Yue Zheng almost forgot that he was a deviant person, he subconsciously touched the center of his eyebrows, and laughed at himself:
"No problem for now. My only concern is that I guess when I die, I'll have to wear this forehead guard with me. ”
Ah Dong sighed: "Don't worry, even if there is a mutation, it won't be ......."
Whoosh——!
Before Ah Dong's words were finished, a clear scream floated from the night sky, Yue Zheng suddenly turned his head, and saw that in the sky above the dark city area that was about 5 kilometers away from the tower, a shining signal flare suddenly rose, radiating scarlet light in the dark night sky!
"Everyone, there is a situation!"
Flares are the means of warning the Night Watch, and generally only those who have a terrorist incident or have discovered an out-of-control mutation will issue such a warning. Ah Dong quickly rang the bell on the tower, and in just a blink or two of an eye, Xu Liang, Ghost Ya, who were resting on the first and second floors of the tower, and another team member named Xu Dali, walked out quickly.
"Let's go!"
The range of the signal flare was in the jurisdiction of himself and others, and there was not much communication, after confirming the direction of the signal flare, Xu Liang and Ghost Tooth let out a low shout, and their figures jumped down and rushed out.
Once a variant is discovered, it must be sealed as soon as possible to avoid the spread of harm and panic. Yue Zheng and the other two teammates were not much slower, they were like cheetahs running in the dark, and they all rushed towards the block below the signal flare.
However, unlike the cold and serious of other teammates, during the wild run, the night wind blew in his face, but Yue Zheng's eyes flashed with the brilliance of anticipation.
Because this is also his chance to verify the true way to obtain the Destiny Point!
The distance of less than a kilometer is about a minute or two for the demon slayer with strong physical speed, and soon, Yue Zheng and the others, who were running wildly on the dark avenue, came to the city under the light of the signal flare, and faintly heard the sound of rapid shouting and musket shooting:
Bang bang bang!
"Be careful!"
"Don't come closer!"
"Ahh
Whew!
Whether it was Yue Zheng or the others, the figure was like an electric shot, and it took the shortest time to find the sound through the alley on the left, and then found the source of all the chaos.
In the dimly lit block, the doors and windows were closed, and in front of a small courtyard with a collapsed wall, there were five or six men in night patrol uniforms, frightened and inexplicably aiming muskets at the courtyard, and not far from their feet, three figures lay on the ground, motionless, unknown whether they were alive or dead.
Only the black and red liquid diffusing from under them, and the extremely strong smell of blood in the air, revealed their fate.
"You retreat!"
"Block the yard!"
Most of the polluted people are not something that the night patrol team can deal with, knowing that there is something terrible in the courtyard, Xu Liang and Ghost Tooth immediately shouted, and rushed to the front of the small courtyard in a few steps; Yue Zheng's movements were not slow at all, and he strode out after him, and formed a situation of entrapment support with the other two teammates, completely blocking the small courtyard.
"It's ....... inside!"
But when Yue Zheng's gaze looked in through the half-collapsed courtyard gate coldly, his pupils suddenly shrank.
At this moment, the signal flare bloomed at a low altitude, draping the block with a scarlet veil, but in the small courtyard, there stood a lonely woman in a white single dress with a beautiful figure.
No, Yue Zheng didn't know if what he saw could be called a woman. Because in addition to the fact that the other party's body looks like a human, the face that should be considered beautiful has been completely opened and cracked from the corner of the mouth, almost to the root of the ear, forming a huge mouth that can be called terrifying.
And what is even more terrifying is that countless flesh buds in her open mouth squirmed viciously, stretching out fleshy tentacles as thick as an adult's wrist, these tentacles squirmed wildly outside the woman's body like a living python, exuding incomparable twisting, evil, and madness!
