Volume 2: Mao'er Mountain Chapter 72: Monsters

Xiao Yue looked at the village chief and said: "Although I don't know why you arrested me, I probably understand some truths, you must have ambushed a monster on the mountain, but I didn't expect to catch the wrong one, and I was a living person like me and caught it as a monster." ”

The village chief said, "So you're not a monster?" ”

Xiao Yue said: "Where do you think I look like a monster?" ”

The village chief said: "The monster is changeable, who knows if he has changed the appearance of others and deliberately came to coax us." ”

"This ......" Xiao Yue was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say.

The village chief said: "You said that you are not a monster, why do you make us believe you?" ”

Xiao Yue smiled bitterly: "I don't know how to explain it to you to make you believe me, but I said that if it's not a monster, it must not be a monster, and I may be able to help you catch monsters." ”

He paused and said, "The way you set up an ambush to catch monsters last night is okay to deal with people like me, but if you want to use it to catch monsters, it will definitely not work." ”

When the village chief heard Xiao Yue say this, his attitude had changed a little, and he said, "Do you have any better way?" ”

Xiao Yue smiled: "There is no way for the time being, but I have the ability to catch monsters." ”

The village chief looked him up and down with suspicious eyes and said, "I see that you don't think you can do anything for yourself. ”

Xiao Yue laughed and said: "I forgot to introduce myself, I am the nineteenth generation head of the Maoshan faction, and I left Maoshan to practice this time just to subdue demons and subdue demons." ”

Many in the crowd exclaimed.

The village chief's face couldn't help but change sharply, his eyebrows fluttered, and he looked at him with a half-believing look.

Xiao Yue said: "Don't you believe it? ”

The village chief hesitated and muttered, "This ...... This ......"

Xiao Yue said: "If I am a monster, have you ever seen a monster as embarrassed as me?" ”

It was only then that he noticed what he was wearing and how he looked.

Looking at this scene, it really doesn't look like a youkai, but like a flower child.

Some of the women couldn't help but laugh out loud.

But there are also people who are delicate and vigilant who suspect that he is a swaggering and deceitful wandering magician, specially pretending to be a Taoist priest with advanced Taoism, and defrauding people of money in the name of subduing demons and subduing demons, catching ghosts and driving away evil spirits.

In this day and age, there are a lot of liars, and it is not surprising that there are such suspicions.

The village chief mocked: "Our village also invited a Taoist priest a few days ago, saying that he is a famous and decent disciple, and he is proficient in catching ghosts and exorcising evil spirits, eliminating disasters and solving problems. ”

Xiao Yue also had a grudge against these fake warlocks who specialized in using the identity of Taoists to deceive, not only ruining the reputation of their true cultivators, but also attracting the scolding of the world.

But this kind of thing happens everywhere, and it has become a common phenomenon in the times, and he is helpless.

I had to smile bitterly and said: "I help people exorcise evil spirits, and I don't need money to subdue demons, and I don't need any return." ”

Everyone didn't believe it and said, "There is no such good thing in the world, and there is no such kind person." ”

Xiao Yue said with a smile: "You must not generalize, there are still warlocks in this world who really solve disasters for sentient beings without asking for returns, but you rarely meet such people, those who open and close their mouths to ask for money, in most cases are fake warlocks, the Tao is not high, only some tricks to confuse the world." ”

Everyone listened to what Xiao Yue said was reasonable, and they were silent, thinking: Could it be that he is really a Taoist who is sincere in doing good and accumulating virtue and seeking blessings?

The village chief suddenly turned around and whispered to several village cadres.

He said: "This person clearly said that he does not ask for anything in return, I think the seventh layer is true, it is better to leave him in the village for a few days, whether he is true or not, to see how he catches demons for us, if there is any suspicious behavior during the period, we are asking him to leave, it is the same." ”

Several cadres felt that the village chief's words were reasonable, and unanimously agreed, so they immediately told the villagers.

These villagers all trusted the village chief very much, and no one said much, so Xiao Yue lived in Zhenghe Village.

As soon as he asked, he found out that Zhenghe Village used to live a comfortable and peaceful life, but two months ago, some strange things began to happen.

At first, the people who went up the mountain to cut firewood disappeared from time to time, and the whole village searched all over the mountains and couldn't find it, and the thing happened strangely and terrifyingly, so no one dared to go up the mountain to cut wood.

It was quiet for ten days and half a month, thinking that similar disappearances would never happen again, but a few nights ago, a villager husband and wife got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, and were directly robbed by monsters, and there has been no news so far.

Xiao Yue wanted to know the specific situation, so she asked the family to tell some details about how their daughter was kidnapped by the monster.

The middle-aged man said with tears in his eyes: "At about two o'clock in the middle of the night, my daughter got up and went to the thatched house, just walked to the door, a black thing suddenly jumped out, hugged her body, she exclaimed and fainted directly, at that time my wife and I were asleep, woken up by her exclamation, scared that the shoes were too late to wear, hurried to the yard, it was too late, only to see a black shadow, so fast that people couldn't see what it was, only to see it over the wall, then disappeared into the darkness and disappeared, At that time, I was so anxious that I opened the gate and chased out, chasing for several kilometers, but I still didn't chase my daughter back, and I still don't know if she is dead or alive. After speaking, the middle-aged man couldn't care about the man's face and cried bitterly.

Xiao Yue was particularly sympathetic to what he was going through at the moment.

This incident is somewhat similar to the incident in Xiahe Village, but I don't know what kind of monster this is, listening to the description of the middle-aged man, this monster looks like some kind of beast.

But the beast would never be so shrewd, and would think of hiding in the toilet, waiting for the master to come out and go to the toilet, and then steal the person without knowing it.

This must be a certain type of mountain and forest beast that has become a jing, and with the help of the innate aura of the living, it cultivates the Tao.

In addition to this, it also happens from time to time during the day.

Because there are villagers' vegetable fields in this area at the foot of the mountain, when the villagers go to pick vegetables or hoe in the vegetable fields, the monsters take advantage of the situation and capture the people.

This kind of thing happened one after another, at first the villagers were very scared, and they didn't dare to go to the vegetable field, but the monsters were too rampant, and they frequently came down the mountain to take pictures, which angered the villagers, and organized a team under the leadership of the village chief to set up an ambush on the mountain in the middle of the night to catch the monsters.

They knew that if the monster wanted to go down the mountain to catch people, it would definitely pass through that road, but who knew that the monster didn't wait, but caught Xiao Yue.

Xiao Yue learned from the village chief that they didn't know the specific lair of the youkai, but they must be hiding somewhere in the mountains.

Xiao Yue knew that the lair of this kind of monster that had become a spirit in the mountains must be mainly caves.

He already had experience in searching caves in Xiahe Village, and he wanted to go up the mountain to find the monster's cave, but the villagers told him that he didn't have to go up the mountain himself, the monster would come down on its own.

And the reason why they set up ambushes and hunt demons in the mountains is just the terrain needs.

Xiao Yue didn't know what it meant, and the villagers said: "This monster will come to the village almost every day to watch and squat in a place that no one else can see, and as long as it sees an opportunity, it will attack people and catch them up the mountain." So, we don't really have to go up the mountain, just set a trap in the village and wait for him. ”

A villager said: "It's just that we don't know when the monster will come down the mountain, let alone where it will hide in the village." ”

Xiao Yue pondered for a while and said, "It's okay, leave this matter to me, as long as it dares to come down the mountain, I will make it unable to escape back." ”
