The next day, the sky was slightly bright, Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong had a simple breakfast, and then went out of the city together.

According to the information obtained by Huo Ang, Xia Meng's army had already set up camp in a place five hundred miles outside Lujiang City, and the reason why they had not launched an attack on Lujiang City was that they seemed to be waiting for something.

According to calculations, Xia Meng's army is likely to be preparing for the puppet army, when it broke through other parts of Lujiang County before, it was the puppet army that opened the way in front, and all the way down, the puppet army also suffered serious losses, and now it is approaching Lujiang City, so Xia Meng's army is likely to want to capture more people to expand the strength of the puppet army.

These days, the villages near Lujiang City have often been attacked, and then the villagers of the whole village have disappeared, and according to the clues left behind, they found that all of them were secretly taken away. Through Huo Rui's patrol outside the city, some clues have also been found, and those people are likely to continue to capture villagers in nearby villages, and then refine them into the most basic puppets, and then put them on the battlefield on a large scale.

The situation is urgent, if these people really all become puppets, then it will be a huge blow to Lujiang City, after Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong left the city, they also immediately launched an investigation, and according to the previous clues, they began to look for more villages one by one.

Because Xia Meng's army was only five hundred miles away from Lujiang City, the two of them did not dare to go too far out of the city, and could only patrol one or two hundred miles outside the city.

Along the way, the two also found a lot of empty villages, not only was there no one in the village, but even the livestock had disappeared, and all the food at home had been emptied.

Almost every village, is like this, the two have seen more than a dozen villages, large and small, the preliminary estimate is nearly a thousand people, if these people are really all taken away and become puppets, the consequences are unimaginable, although they can only be refined into the most base puppets, but because of the large number, these puppets are attacking the city in front of them, as cannon fodder, it is also difficult to resist.

After a day of inspection, every village I saw was in the same situation, with no people in a radius of 100 miles.

The two did not give up their patrol, and it was not until late that they finally came to a small village in the middle of nowhere.

This village is not large, with only a few dozen families and a population of less than 300, and because of its remote location, it is not easy to find.

In order to prevent someone from infiltrating the village, the two pretended to be ordinary people, and after entering the village, they came to the village chief's house, saying that they had fled from another village, and asked the village chief to take them in for the night.

The village chief took in the two very warmly, and now it was time to eat, so he invited the two to stay and eat together.

After taking a general look in the village, the two of them didn't find anything abnormal, and they relaxed their vigilance, and when they were eating, Chu Feng asked about some things in the village.

"Village Chief, have there been any other strangers in your village recently?"

The village chief said: "Our village is relatively remote, and no one comes in at all on weekdays, except for the two of you, two people came to our village last night. ”

"Village Chief, who is it?" Feng Yuerong hurriedly asked.

The village chief said with a smile: "They are people from the city, and they said that they were sent by Lord Huo, because it has been very peaceful here recently, and there are often demon beasts that come out to hurt people, so they came to our village to subdue demons, and also help us resist demon energy." ”

"Demonic spirit?"

Chu Feng said with some doubts, looked at Feng Yuerong, and said, "What kind of demonic energy, why didn't we feel it?"

The village chief said: "We are all ordinary people, of course we can't feel the demonic energy, only those monks with high mana can feel the demonic energy." In the past few days, every time in the middle of the night, there will be the roar of demon beasts outside the village, and these demon qi are brought by those demon beasts. Those two people are strong monks, and when they came to our village, they helped us to subdue the demons. ”

"Did you catch the demon beast?" asked Feng Yuerong.

The village chief said happily: "I caught it, it turned out that it was the pig demon who was making trouble, and after the pig demon caught it, those demon qi had not yet dispersed, so the two adults gave us holy water, so that we could resist these demon qi." ”

"And holy water, why have I never heard of it?"

Feng Yuerong felt a little outrageous, on the way here, she neither saw a demon beast, nor did she sense the demon qi, why did a demon beast suddenly appear?

The village chief hurriedly asked his wife to bring a jar from the back room, and after opening it, he pointed to the reddened water inside and said, "You see, this is the holy water that the two adults gave us, and after drinking it, we will be able to resist these evil spirits." ”

Chu Feng was puzzled and said, "Village Chief, can you let me take a look?"

"Of course, I'll pour you a bowl too. ”

The village chief poured a bowl of holy water, and after Chu Feng took the bowl, he looked at it carefully, and couldn't tell that it was holy water at all, and there was no spiritual power at all, but there was still an evil spirit aura.

"Chu Feng, is there anything wrong with this water?" Feng Yuerong asked.

After Chu Feng saw it, he put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, and said, "Village chief, don't drink this water for the time being." ”

The village chief was very puzzled: "Why is this, if we don't drink holy water, we will all be infected with demonic energy." ”

Chu Feng said: "Village chief, there is something wrong with this water, it is definitely not holy water, you still don't drink it." ”

The village chief looked at the holy water in the jar and thought that Chu Feng was talking nonsense: "Don't talk nonsense, this is the holy water that the two adults gave us with a lot of effort, and the people in our village have all drunk this holy water, and they all feel that their strength is much greater than before, and they are also more energetic." ”

Chu Feng exclaimed, "Have all the people in the village drunk?"

"yes, we all drank it, and there was no problem. The village chief nodded.

Seeing Chu Feng's anxious face, Feng Yuerong hurriedly asked, "Chu Feng, what's wrong, what kind of water is this?"

Chu Feng frowned, and said worriedly: "I feel that this water is a little strange, it can't resist the demonic qi at all, and besides, there is no demonic qi around here at all." ”

When Chu Feng said this, the village chief was a little reluctant, and said: "You can't say that, the two adults gave us holy water, and after we drank it, we really felt that our bodies were much better and we had more strength, how could it be ineffective, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand." ”

Chu Feng explained: "Village chief, I have studied medical skills, these waters, there is really no effect, there must be something in it, so that people will feel strong after drinking it." ”

The village chief asked, "Then you say, what's in here?"

"I haven't found this yet. However, village chief, if you give me one night, I will definitely find out. ”

The village chief was a little displeased, then poured the holy water in the bowl back into the jar and said, "I was kind enough to give you holy water, but you are talking nonsense here, and you don't want to drink it, so forget it." ”

Chu Feng said in a good voice: "Village Chief, you misunderstood what I meant, I didn't talk nonsense, this holy water is really ......"

"Daddy, Daddy, those two adults are here. ”

The village chief's son ran over in a panic.

The village chief was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Let's go, let's hurry over to greet us." ”

The village chief's family hurriedly went out to greet them, Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong glanced at each other, and also walked out.

When I came to the door, I saw everyone crowding around two people in Taoist uniforms, cheering.

One of them said, "Village Chief, have you drunk all the holy water I gave you?"

The village chief nodded vigorously: "Drink, we all drank it, my lord, your holy water is really useful." ”

The man smiled slightly and said, "That's good, this holy water needs to be drunk three times a day, for three consecutive days, to ensure that you will never have demonic energy in your body in the future." ”

"Thank you, thank you, thank you. ”

The village chief and the others all bowed to the two of them.

After the village chief invited the two to come to the courtyard, he happened to see Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong standing in the courtyard, and the two of them were also slightly surprised when they saw Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong, although both of them were dressed in plain clothes, and there was no true qi fluctuation on their bodies, but compared to these rough people, they were more like rich children from the city.

"Who are these two?" asked the village chief.

"They fled from somewhere else, and when they came here, I took them in," the village chief said. ”

Then the village chief said to the two, "This is what I told you, the two adults who saved all the people in our village. ”

"Hello two adults. ”

Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong pretended to be very enthusiastic and saluted the two.

One of them looked at the two of them carefully, smiled happily, and said, "Yes, since you have come here, let's stay here." ”

After everyone entered the house, one of them said, "Village chief, we are looking for you this time because of something. ”

"Your Excellency, please tell me that if there is anything we will do, we will do our best. ”

The man nodded with satisfaction and said: "Tomorrow is the third day for you to drink the holy water, in order to let the people in the village not be in the demon qi in the future, so that everyone can resist all diseases, we have specially refined the elixir, tomorrow, you will gather all the people, let everyone take the elixir, so that in the future, all the villagers will not be sick, and they can live a long life." ”

"Great, really good, two adults, the great benefactor of our whole village, on behalf of all the people in the village, I kowtow to the two adults. ”

The village chief was extremely happy and knelt directly on the ground and kowtowed to the two people, and the others also kowtowed to thank them like the village chief.

Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong on the side looked at this and were also surprised, in the hearts of these villagers, these two people were simply reborn parents.

Seeing that Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong didn't move, one person walked up to the two of them, took out two small bottles from his arms, and handed them to the two: "In this bottle, I have carefully refined the holy water, now give each of you a bottle, after you drink it, you can not be afraid of the demonic energy here." ”

Chu Feng and Feng Yuerong looked at each other, and after comprehending it, they took the bottle.

"Thank you, sir, for the holy water. ”

The man smiled with satisfaction and said, "Tomorrow, you will follow the village chief, and I will give you the elixir." ”

Then, after the two of them explained a few words to the village chief, they left here under the respectful send-off of the village chief and others.
