Chapter 40: Dream Spell
"What's going on! Isn't the Blood Demon dead? How can he be in the city!" The city lord who was in charge of maintaining the security of the entire lockdown stood in a tent in the center of the Exorcism Guild Square and asked loudly, "President Tang, I hope you can give me an explanation. ”
"The Blood Demon was indeed killed by my own hands, as for why there are blood demons in the city...... I think the city lord should ask himself about this matter. Why did the Blood Demon suddenly appear in the city?" Tang Qiang sat on the tent behind the tent and looked at Zang Xing coldly: "Our Exorcism Guild is only responsible for killing demons and protecting the town from being harmed by monsters, but it is the responsibility of your city guards. ”
"Do you think this matter has nothing to do with your Exorcist Guild? How do you know if the person you came back from this operation was stained with the blood of the Blood Demon and brought it into the city? ”
Tang Qiang frowned, "I believe in those warriors who came back alive. ”
"Warriors, who knows if they are the culprits of this bloodbath?" Zang Xing sneered
"City Lord Zang, what's the matter with our Exorcism Guild here? If it's for commission, you can leave now. ”
"I'm not here to entrust you this time, but to give an order! As the lord of the locked city, I order you to dispatch all the exorcists!
"We exorcists are not like your army, where everyone has the right to choose what to do. Therefore, I cannot answer your orders. Tang Qiang raised his head and stared at Zang Xing in front of him.
"You're going to watch as the innocent people who died innocently because of your mistakes were mutilated by the Blood Demons?" Zang Xing quietly pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword. The six legion guards behind him stared fiercely at Cheng Yu and Xu Wei in the tent.
As soon as the city lord gives the order, they will immediately rush forward and subdue the three of them. After all, these exorcists look to their military as nothing more than a bunch of clowns.
Tang Qiang glanced lightly at the city lord's hand pressed on the hilt of the sword, "I don't want to watch innocent people being slaughtered, but I still can't accept your orders." We are exorcists, and our will is dominated by ourselves. ”
"Exorcist!" Zang Xing pulled out the saber at his waist and pointed at Tang Qiang, and the six guards behind him instantly surrounded him with swords.
Many people outside the tent heard the commotion coming from inside, but no one wanted to stand up for it. They are reluctant to do things that are not beneficial, not to mention that they are still facing the lockdown of the city at this time.
"Can you believe it now?" Tang Qiang asked with a smile.
"I really don't know why the king agreed to form an exorcist guild back then. Zang Xing shook his hand and threw a token at Tang Qiang, "When everything is over, you can send someone to the inner city to exchange the reward for this commission." ”
Tang Qiang took the token thrown by Zang Xing, and carefully checked it to confirm that it was true, "Now, as the guild leader, I officially undertake the commission of the city lord Zang. ”
Cheng Yu sent the city lord Zang away. ”
"No, you'd better dispatch as soon as possible, I don't want more innocent citizens to be killed. Otherwise, I will definitely wipe out your Exorcist Guild on the charge of demonicism!"
Zang Xing walked out angrily, and just happened to pass by Boro and the others who came over.
Looking at Song Bo, who was the leader, Zang Xing stood in place and thought about something.
"Isn't he a merchant Song Jiang, why did he appear here?" He knew a little about the affairs between Song Bo and the Exorcism Guild, after all, Song Jiang, as the oldest and most experienced merchant in the lockdown city, would occasionally send him a request for help.
"City Lord, where are we going now?" The guard asked.
"Go to Sun's house, since even the old guy Song Jiang has come forward, as a veteran figure of the three elements of the lockdown, he can't just sit idly by. ”
Tang Qiang sent Zang Xing away, turned his head and looked at Xu Wei and Cheng Yu, "What's the matter!"
"President, we don't know. ”
"Donald Ghost!" A familiar voice came from outside the tent, and Tang Qiang turned around and looked at Song Jiang standing in front of the door in shock.
"Old Ghost Song!"
The two old men hadn't seen each other since the last incident, almost five years later.
"Why are you here? Don't you ......?"
"Hui'er's death, I can't let it go. But this time I won't come, it's not okay, about the blood demon ......" Song Bo looked at Xu Wei, "What about your brother?"
"Xu Hong?" Xu Wei didn't know why the old man suddenly asked like this.
"Do you know that the reason why the blood demon appeared this time is all because of him!"
Xu Hong, he didn't participate in this operation at all. ”
"You don't have to see a blood demon to become a blood demon. "Song Bo looked at Tang Qiang, "The person who has become a blood demon is called Xie Fu." ”
"Thanks?" The chairman looked at Xu Wei, "Do you know this thank you?"
"He's my brother's friend, but he didn't participate in this operation to exterminate the Blood Demon. Xu Wei looked at Song Bo in shock, "Old man, what are you talking nonsense?"
The chairman raised his hand to stop Xu Wei, "He is a friend of the same era as me." Xu Wei, my current state has disappointed me a little. ”
"But the president...... How could my brother ......" Xu Wei didn't believe that it was Xu Hong who introduced the blood demon into the city, even if he was usually a little domineering, but he couldn't do this kind of thing.
"Do you remember the dream charm female fox back then?" Song Bo asked as he looked at Tang Qiang.
"Dream Charm Fox ...... That little fox that can make people lose themselves in dreams!" Tang Qiang seemed to remember that not long after he joined the Exorcism Guild when he was young, Song Jiang was already a famous local businessman. It will be a long time before he becomes the leader of the Lockdown Exorcism Guild.
"But does it matter?" Tang Qiang didn't quite understand, they did find a dream fox in the wasteland at that time, but instead of killing her in the end, they chose to let her go. At that time, people were not as afraid of the monsters that existed in the world as they are now.
"She can immerse people in dreams and make people feel death. And he will believe everything that happens in the dream world, so that people will do the same thing in the real world. Song Bo explained.
"But after all, it's just a dream, and it doesn't have the power of the Blood Demon Dark Curse, let alone make the dead turn into a revenant. ”
"What if someone planted a blood curse in a dream?"
"How is this possible, even if it is as you say, who planted the blood curse on him in the dream?" Tang Qiang didn't believe Song Bo's words, after all, these were just the little fox's words back then, and she couldn't do it herself to this extent.
Boro listened quietly to their discussion, recalling what had happened that night in the dimly lit cabin.
"I ...... Kill him in a dream......"
