The night was deep.

There were dark clouds floating in the night sky, obscuring the moonlight, and the stars twinkling, and occasionally the starlight struggled to break through the dark clouds, hanging alone in a corner of the night sky, and did not bring much light to the night.

The world still looks a little gloomy.

Yes, in the eyes of Lai Sen, the county magistrate of Linzhang County, this familiar county government compound, this familiar Linzhang night sky, is so gloomy, and there is a great terror in his heart that is pressed like a boulder, making him unable to kick his breath, just like in a nightmare that can never wake up, his mind is so clear, but he can't wake himself up.

The entire Linzhang County is silent.

It was a kind of silence, as if all living beings had fallen into a dream, without any sound.

In the past, even in the silent night, there was the chirping of insects, and from time to time you could hear the barking of dogs and chickens, and occasionally the footsteps of people returning from night echoed on the bluestone slabs of the streets.

At some point, there was no such sound.

There is only the sound of breathing, with or without the sound of breathing.

This is a closed courtyard, located in a corner of the county government, by the firewood room where the kitchen is located, is the county government's servant residence, this is still Lai Sen in Linzhang County for four or five years, in this county government after living for so long for the first time to enter, in the past, he didn't know this place at all, yes, as a Shangguan, he is also a three-grade gate valve, and has a great Zhou Tian's perfect cultivation, naturally will stay away from ordinary people.

Today, this small courtyard is crowded with people.

The entire county government was crowded into this courtyard, even if Lai Sen, as the county magistrate, could not occupy a house alone, in this small house where the subordinates lived, in addition to him, there were also county officials, lords and other officials.

Of course, the environment is much better than other crowded places.

In the whole courtyard, even if there are hundreds of people, there is only the sound of breathing, all of them are like puppets, they have not changed their posture for a long time, only the open eyes have eyeballs turning, and the eyes looking at each other are full of fear.

The entire county government, the entire Linzhang County, at this moment, only this courtyard is relatively safe.

Here, there is a demon suppressor who has set up a talisman array with great effort, and he can barely keep the evil and strange aura out, it is indeed reluctant, and there is still a breath that penetrates in, making everyone frightened and unable to move.

Tonight, the entire county of Linzhang is shrouded in boundless fear.

Such a terrifying aura proves that the evil monster that is about to be generated is extremely terrifying.

Ryson looked to the northwest, blocked by a wall, and could not penetrate the back garden that fell northwest of the county office, where his residence was located, but now, it had become the place where the evil spirit was about to be born.

Hopefully this catastrophe will be avoided!

At dusk and sunset, the remnant sun hanging on the west hill reveals a bit of strange atmosphere, the sunset is bright red like blood, flowing between heaven and earth, such a vision, so that everyone is suspicious, the blood-red sunset, faintly filled with a smell of blood.

Subsequently, a few horsemen galloped and entered Linzhang before the city gate was closed.

These horses are from Handan, there are warriors, there are mages, and there are novices who are rarely seen in the northern land now, among them, Lai Sen has two acquaintances, one is an official from Handan County, this clerk Lai Sen has dealt with him a lot, although this official has no grade, Lai Sen does not dare to treat him with the attitude of an official, and when getting along, he even puts his position lower.

The reason is very simple, this official's surname is Li.

In addition, Lai Sen also knew another person, that person was also surnamed Li, had no official status, Lai Sen had never dealt with him, and on two occasions he had only seen each other from a distance, but he did not dare to come close to say hello.

He doesn't have that qualification.

It was a demon suppressor, a demon suppressor from the Li clan of Zhao County.

Such a big man, even if he is a county magistrate, is actually not qualified to approach.

The magic circle in this small courtyard was arranged by the demon suppressor named Li Yuan, and without this magic circle, everyone in this courtyard would be unconscious in fear like everyone else in Linzhang City.

That's not a good thing, even in a coma, they are still overwhelmed by terror and can't break free.

After this group of people entered the city, they came to the county office, and Li Yuan went straight to the point, saying that there was an evil spirit coming to Linzhang tonight, and the place of arrival was in the back garden of the county office, Laisen's residence.

If it were someone else, Ryson would certainly not believe it.

However, these words came from the mouth of the demon suppressor Li Yuan, and he did not have the slightest doubt.

Of course, his first thought was to run away from the door and leave Linzhang, the farther away the better, but he didn't do it, not because he didn't want to, but because he couldn't, there were guards from His Royal Highness King Zhao in this group.

Flee from the battle, be killed!

At first, he thought that it was Li Yuan who led the team, but later found out that it was not, Li Yuan also acted according to orders, and it was the little novice who was only seven or eight years old who gave the order, and it is said that this little novice was the companion of His Royal Highness King Zhao.

This time, there was an evil ghost and a strange coming in Linzhang, that is, His Royal Highness King Zhao obtained the Heavenly Dao induction and had a judgment in advance, so he sent this little novice with the law name Huiyuan to Linzhang, assisted by the demon suppressor Li Yuan, to kill the evil strange.

Suddenly, there was the sound of drums.

It was a very violent drum beat, and the drum beat was getting heavier and heavier, almost shattering the eardrums.

This is?

At this time, Lai Sen found that the county and the lord Bo looked at him with fear, he was in a trance, and his heart was shaking, and he suddenly had a realization......

What kind of drum is this, it is clearly your own heartbeat.

The next moment, he immediately retracted his mind, concentrated on his own breathing, concentrated on the operation of the true qi in his body, the true qi struggled to run slowly in the dry meridians, and his mind condensed, so that the sound of this heartbeat came down.

In a trance, he almost hit the trick.

That's coming!

He had a clear sense.

Bless the gods and Buddhas!

In the back garden, next to a dry well, the demon suppressor Li Yuan's face was pale, and he was holding a green jade Ruyi in his hand. You know, half an hour ago, this wishful blue light was still extremely dazzling, and the entire back garden was shrouded in it, but now, it was suppressed by some inexplicable breath and became what it is today.

It's like a candle that is about to go out at any moment.

So, his face looked like this.

In fact, he also has apprehension in his heart.

Just yesterday, he was still cultivating in the manor, and in the early hours of the morning, he received an order from the patriarch Li Dan, saying that there was an evil spirit, so he set off quickly and went to Linzhang County with the people from the county town to eliminate demons.

He asked how the casualties were in Linzhang County, and what type of evil and weird it was?

After all, there are many evil spirits, each with its own characteristics, it must be targeted spells, and the equipment required is also different.

However, the reply he got was that this evil and strange thing had not yet appeared, but His Royal Highness King Zhao had a sense and knew that this thing would come to Linzhang County at midnight today.

When he heard this, he had only two words in his heart.

Fart!

The reason why the evil monster is terrifying is that in addition to the evil qi that it carries that is harmful to the martial artist, it is also because there is no law in the generation of this thing, and it is the same when it appears and disappears, so it is difficult to guard against.

For tens of thousands of years, countless demon suppressors have studied and there is no way to come to a conclusion, only knowing that everyone has a dark side, and this evil and strange is generated by the dark side of everyone infected with the void air.

The so-called chaotic times produce demons.

Because the world is unstable, people's hearts are also unstable, in this way, the dark side will increase, and the evil and strange will also be infested in large numbers, which means that the troubled times are coming, if there is a demonic disaster, that is, the void demon comes, not only will change the dynasty, the rules of heaven will also change, and human beings may even be extinct.

Pre-sensing the arrival of an evil spirit?

If it weren't for the patriarch Li Dan who was speaking, Li Yuan would have to reprimand him.

What about His Royal Highness King Zhao? What about the nobles?

Even Zhang Tianshi of Longhu Mountain didn't dare to say that he could sense the strange arrival of evil spirits, and it was a day or two in advance, not only so long in advance, but also thousands of miles away.

However, although he had doubts in his heart, he did not speak out, after all, Li Dan is not only the patriarch, but also the strong grandmaster, such a figure cannot be deceived by others, since he believes that His Royal Highness King Zhao must have his own reasons.

It's just that since you don't know what type of evil spirit is, you need to be ready to come!

You shouldn't have come in such a hurry.

However, Li Yuan still didn't talk much, didn't complain, and didn't question.

This time, the main force of the demon eradication is Xiao Shami Huiyuan, who is just an assistant.

He still didn't say much, just acted silently, even if he was apprehensive.

On the rivers and lakes, all the old and weak women and children who dare to walk alone must not be underestimated, and if they don't put this kind of people in their eyes, most of them have become roadside corpses.

Li Yuan couldn't find out the peculiarities of the other party, which made him even more jealous.

Here it comes!

The blue light suddenly goes out!

Li Yuan's body floated backwards like a fallen leaf, and in the sea of consciousness, a soul lamp flickered, and runes were faintly generated, and only one thought could be stimulated through the green jade ruyi in his hand.

In front of him, there was black smoke.

Evil!

The smell of this evil qi was very strong, and it was a powerful evil qi that Li Yuan had never seen before.

At this moment, the light of the soul lamp in his sea of consciousness was flickering and extinguishing, and the generation speed of those runes became stagnant, and it was difficult to generate, and as for the ability to activate spells in a single thought, it had become a delusion.

It's amazing!

Li Yuan's heart sank, and he couldn't help but look at Xiao Shami Huiyuan, who was sitting cross-legged next to the dry well.

He did not retreat like Li Yuan, but remained by the dry well, treating the evil qi that was thicker than the darkness as nothing, and allowing those evil qi to sweep in like this, enveloping his body.
