"It's a Daedric!" Yi Shuihan walked out of the woods, holding a small black rag in his hand.

At the moment when Wu fell to the ground, he had already recovered from the shock wave, and when he saw that there was a high pillow execution on the demon's side, he quickly chased in the direction where the black knife shot in the woods, trying to catch the assassin who was secretly assassinating Wu.

"Let him run away, but I found this on the leaves," Yi Shuihan showed everyone the rags in his hand, which were hooked from the needle-like hard leaves from the assassin who fled in panic, "This is the 'magic clothes' often worn by people in the Demon Cult, also called 'ink clothes', it is as black as ink, that assassin should be a Demon Cultist, it can't be wrong." ”

"What? It's a Diabolist! There are demons around the village again! A villager shouted.

"That fire beast must be a monster of the Demon Cult!" Someone said.

"Look! The Fire Beast has been killed! It actually took the form of a woman! Someone shouted at the demon who had been cut in two by the high pillow.

"Who's that? Does anyone know each other? Someone said in horror, he couldn't imagine that the terrible devil just now had turned into a young girl.

"Just now Wu said it was her daughter! Is this true? Someone asked in a loud voice.

"Nie Lao's daughter was sent out at a very young age and never came back. When I came back a few days ago, I didn't see her, and then I was burned...... "said a villager.

"I heard that their daughter was sent to the Qinglou in Yancheng, so she never came back......," someone commented in a whisper.

"Could it be that you met a demon cultist in the Qinglou, and then you were bewitched and became a monster?" Some villagers speculated.

“......”

"Guys, please stop arguing!" Gao Zhen suddenly clapped his hands and interrupted them, "You guys now hurry up and move the bodies of Nie Lao and Wu back to the village, and tell the village chief about the situation." We still need to do some spells here to overtake the demons, and there may be danger later, so please evacuate quickly! ”

After listening to his words, everyone chattered again, hurriedly picked up the bodies of the Nie family and his wife, and hurried to the village. They had all seen the horror of the fire beast just now, and they didn't dare to stay any longer.

"Qing Xuanwu!" Gao Zhen's hands made a seal gesture, summoning a ball of air wrapped in cyan true qi, which was slowly injected into Lai Ruoxue's scorched back to heal her.

"She'll be fine, she'll wake up with a rest." Yi Shuihan walked up to Gao Zhen and patted him on the shoulder.

Gao Zhen didn't speak, just concentrated on the treatment. He knew that if he hadn't been distracted, Ruoxue wouldn't have been hurt.

As the cyan true qi gradually consumed, Lai Ruoxue's frowning brows began to slowly stretch, and a trace of ruddy reappeared on her face. The high pillow made her lie on her side on the ground and helped her straighten out her messy sideburns.

"Why a girl? Is she really Wu's daughter? Yi Shuihan walked over to the dead demon. Although her body was severed, her hands were still restrained, so she did not fall to the ground. Yi Shuihan lifted her chin slightly, wanting to take a closer look at her face.

Suddenly, he found that the third eye on the woman's forehead lit up again, a dark red light burst out, a pair of magic eyes opened again, the golden light flowed, she opened her mouth suddenly, revealing sharp teeth, and bit towards Yi Shuihan's neck.

"Boom!" After a loud bang, Yi Shuihan shook his right hand, sighed, let go of the woman, and let her head hang down on her chest. She had a huge hole in her forehead that was completely penetrated and completely deprived of her vitality.

"I didn't expect her to bite me, so I could only blow her to death with one punch." Yi Shuihan said with a frown.

"Gao Zhen, have you ever seen this black knife? Which sect of the Demon Sect is the secret weapon? Yi Shuihan walked to Gao Zhen's side and spread out the handkerchief in his hand, revealing the black knife that was taken from Wu's neck.

"It's not a demon cult." Gao Zhen didn't even look at the knife, and said.

"Not a Demon Cult? Who is that? Yi Shuihan was a little puzzled.

"It's the Blazing Yuan Sect." Gao Zhen clenched his fists.

"Do you still remember the servant in Lu Caifa's house just now? It's the short man with the strip of cloth wrapped around his head. He is a member of the Blazing Yuan Sect, and after the appearance of the Fire Beast, he was sent by the Blazing Yuan Sect to Qiyu Village to do surveillance work. Gao Zhen explained to Yi Shuihan.

"He had a strip of cloth wrapped around his forehead, just to cover the flame mark that was exclusive to the disciples of the Blazing Yuan Sect. I deliberately slapped him from behind at that time, and the fire attribute true qi in his body was very strong, which made me even more sure that he was a member of the Blazing Yuan Sect. ”

"Just after we got out of the village, he came out with him and ambushed him in the woods next to him. That's why he didn't appear among the villagers who came. ”

But why did he do it? Who is he going to ambush? Ambush us? Yi Shuihan asked.

"The person he wants to kill is the Wu family. Nie Lao had already been killed by his daughter, and this secret was known only to the Wu family. Kill her before Wu tells the secret, and no one will know the secret anymore. Takatsu said calmly, as if he had known it for a long time.

"Secret? What secret? Yi Shuihan was a little surprised, he didn't expect things to be so complicated.

"When their daughter was very young, they sent her to the Blazing Yuan Sect. The reason for this may be that Nie's family is poor and can't afford to raise a daughter, but it was found that she has the physique of cultivating immortals. As far as I know, if the disciples of the Blazing Yuan Sect want to complete their cultivation and obtain the mark on their foreheads, it seems that they need to use the 'Awakening Furnace' and a strange beast called the 'Flame Bat'. ”

"But for some special reasons, Nie Lao's daughter had an accident when she awakened, causing her to fail to become a qualified immortal cultivator, but to degenerate into a demon."

"That dark red eye on her forehead is a sign of a failed awakening?" Easy water cold road.

"That's right. After she failed to awaken, she escaped from the Blazing Yuan Sect and ran back to her hometown. The people chased out by the Blazing Yuan Sect must have felt very strange when they found that she had no movement after entering Qiyu Village, but it was not good to search directly at the door, worried that the girl who escaped from the Blazing Yuan Sect would recognize them, and the girl's parents would also tell the truth, fearing that the matter of 'failing to awaken and becoming a devil' would spread to the rivers and lakes and have a bad impact on the decency, so they could only send one disciple to Qiyu Village to monitor. ”

What I didn't expect was that the girl who returned home actually suppressed the demonic nature in her body for some special reasons, and she didn't have an attack immediately. But at night, he may have been affected by the fire attribute true qi in the body of the disciple sent by the Blazing Yuan Sect, so he turned into a demon and burned down his room. ”

"I guess Mr. and Mrs. Nie must have found out about this, but they don't know why their daughter became like this, out of love for their daughter, they can only try their best to hide it, so they will make up lies to deceive the villagers and us."

"The loser's madness naturally attracted the attention of the Blazing Yuan Sect, but they couldn't do it themselves, so they suggested that the village chief who came to ask for help should go to the Qianxun Tower in Yancheng to issue a task and ask us neutral people to solve the problem. Out of compliance with the rules of the Thousand Quest Tower, we will not divulge the details of the mission, which just helps the Blazing Yuan Sect keep it a secret. ”

"The disciple sent by the Blazing Yuan Sect is a backhand, and when necessary, he will dispose of Nie Lao and the Wu Clan so as not to leak secrets. He deliberately put on a magic cloak and used a black knife just to throw the pot at the Demon Cult and make those crazy people bear the consequences for them. After all, this demon who failed to awaken must not come out of decency, but it has the atmosphere of a demon cult. ”

After Gao Zhen finished speaking, he told Yi Shuihan all his guesses and reasoning.

"Could it be that this Blazing Yuan Sect's exercises are related to the Demon Sect? Will you become a demon if you fail? Yi Shuihan thought about it for a moment, feeling that he had touched a dangerous territory.

"If you say this kind of thing, be careful that you will lose your head." Gao Zhen stretched out his hand and wiped it on his neck, and made a look of "can only be understood but not spoken" towards Yi Shuihan.

If there is a problem with the exercises of a righteous sect like the Blazing Yuan Sect that has been cultivated for hundreds of years, or even thousands of years, what kind of turmoil it will cause, I dare not estimate it.

The two of them used the fire attribute immortal technique to completely burn the girl's body, and then took turns carrying the unconscious Lai Ruoxue back to Qiyu Village.

The people of Prayer Village greeted them at the gate of the village and called them "Heroes of Prayer Village". The village chief was very happy, not only gave them a five-star review, paid the reward, but also asked the villagers to prepare a sumptuous banquet to entertain them.

The new servant of Lu Cai's family did not appear again, as Gao Zhen expected.

After they were full of wine and food, they rested in Qiyu Village for the night, and returned to Yancheng in the village chief's carriage early the next morning.
