Chapter 8: Tsk tsk, the demon heart is sinister!
"Division... Master, the time is ...... Is it there? ”
In the moonlight, the bluestone tiled roof glows silvery-white. And bear the two figures, one fat and one thin, the light of the moonlight and the light of the tiles intersect on the gray robe, and it seems that the two figures are particularly dedicated.
And the speaker is the "Yan School" demon hunter, the thirty-ninth generation disciple - Yan Qingshan.
"Apprentice, this is the second time that the teacher has tested you, the last time you caught the snake demon, you left a shadow in your heart, so this time, the teacher will personally accompany you."
The slightly chubby figure pulled away the arm that was being held tightly by his futile child, and moved to the side with some difficulty.
"Master..., I'...... Still a little scared! ”
"Don't be afraid, the cultivation of the two little demons this time is not high, and there is a teacher by your side to guide you, you will definitely be able to do it."
"But... But I'm still afraid. ”
The stammering voice was even quieter, and there was a hint of crying in his tone, which meant that he was reluctant and did not dare. But there is no way, since ancient times, it is difficult to disobey the master's order, not to mention, he is still the only disciple of the master.
"No matter how scared you are, you have to go!"
Maybe it was unbearable, the man who was called the master, scolded, scared the little stammer, reflexively got up, in the moonlight, and said, "Obey the order." ”
"Well, that's pretty much it."
Someone nodded in satisfaction, and flew away with a small stammer.
"It's dry, watch out for the candles!"
The night watchman struck the gong three times, from far to near, and then from near to far. Yan Qingshan and his master took advantage of this opportunity to sneak into a certain inn and wanted to do something. And the inn is where the two demons of Mei Xiaoxian and Hua Xiaofox live.
That's right, as soon as he came to the mortal world, he was targeted by the demon hunter.
It was midnight, and there was already a snoring sound in some rooms, and Yan Qingshan followed behind the master, and his heart trembled several times with every step.
It's not that his skills in catching demons aren't good enough. It was the scene of the battle against the snake demon three years ago that made him still have palpitations. Back then, the master took all the brothers to catch the monsters that were in trouble in the world, saved the common people, and made a lot of contributions to the world.
But the good times didn't last long, and they were planted in the hands of a snake demon with advanced cultivation, and the snake demon was extremely vicious, specializing in making enemies with demon hunters, and almost all demon hunters were wiped out in the shortest possible time, and "Yan's" was no exception.
In that battle, Yan Qingshan watched his brothers and sisters being swallowed by the snake demon one by one, at that time, he was only thirteen years old, and the bloody scene has never been forgotten to this day. Otherwise, the master would have tried his best to save him, I'm afraid he would have filled the belly of the snake demon a long time ago............
"Don't look back, don't think wildly!"
The master's words sounded in his ears like a reassuring pill. Yan Qingshan swallowed his saliva and gradually calmed down.
"Since... Having chosen this path, that... Only... Be sure to go... Go down. ”
Giving himself a sigh, Yan Qingshan pulled out the demon slaying sword on his back. In an instant, a blue light flashed through his pupils. This demon sword is held by each generation of the head of the "Yan faction", and when it came out this time, Yan Beimo gave it to him.
Yan Qingshan understood that he was going to inherit the "Yan Clan" faction.
"Go ahead, the master is here to protect the Dharma for you."
Yan Beimo pointed a little bit, just pushed open the door of the room where Mei Xiaoxian and Hua Xiaofox lived together, with his cultivation, it was not a problem to catch these two little demons at all, but he had to cultivate Yan Qingshan, because he was his only hope.
"In vain obey."
As the words fell, Yan Qingshan clenched the demon slaying sword in his hand, and walked towards the house step by step, getting closer and closer... Getting closer and ......closer, Yan Qingshan could almost hear his heartbeat, and the palm of his hand was already wet.
As soon as he arrived at the door, a fox that had been red flew out from inside, and with a "bang", he pounced towards Yan Qingshan. Yan Qingshan was nervous, screamed, and aimed at the fox. With a sword, the fox was safe and sound, but a piece of the door of the inn was shattered in an instant.
"Okay, Qingshan, go on, pick up the demon sword!"
Yan Beimo was standing beside the pillar not far away at this time, inspiring his disciples while examining the situation. He was a little surprised, weren't there two demons? How only one!
"Ahh
Yan Qingshan heard the master's encouragement, and shouted again, so he slashed towards the fox. This time the fox did not dodge, but waited for Yan Qingshan to come over, and when he was about to approach, the red fox bared his teeth and flicked his tail over.
Yan Qingshan was defenseless, and before Yan Beimo's "careful" sounded, he was hit by the fox's tail, and the whole person fell straight from the second floor of the inn, and the demon slashing sword was also thrown aside.
"Aoyama!"
Yan Beimo flew down, caught Yan Qingshan, and looked up again, where was the shadow of the fox.
"Not good, Demon Slayer?"
By the time Yan Beimo reacted, the upstairs room was already empty, and the fox and the demon slashing sword were nowhere to be seen.
"Division...... Master, I'm sorry, Aoyama is useless. ”
Yan Qingshan "pounced" and knelt in front of Yan Beimo.
"Alas, get up, because the teacher's expectations of you are too high."
Yan Beimo shook his head and helped the people on the ground.
"I ......."
When they were frustrated, the others were woken up by the sound of fighting, and opened the door to check with a curse. The innkeeper and his men also came, they looked at everything messy on the ground, the broken door, and didn't listen to the explanations of the master and apprentice, they had to compensate for the losses, but there was no way, Yan Beimo had to give all the money bags that were already shriveled to the innkeeper.
Yan Qingshan's demon hunting assessment ended in failure again. And took the demon sword...
At the mouth of the silent street, a slender figure flashed, plus a fox, and the two of them moved extremely neatly, floating like a light wind.
After running for a long time, I came to a remote place.
"Oh my god, but I'm dead, I've never run so fast from the mountain."
Mei Xiaoxian put her hands on her waist, panting.
"That's not bad, if you get caught by that monster hunter, you'd rather run to death."
The little fox spit out the demon slaying sword in his mouth to the ground, stretched out his legs, returned to his human form, touched his mouth and muttered:
"It's burning me."
"You said you, run back and run, what are you doing with other people's swords?"
"You don't understand this, this is called treating others the way they do. The demon hunter has no demon sword, I see how he catches demons. ”
Hua Xiaofox looked at Mei Xiaoxian triumphantly. Waiting for her compliments.
"Is the Demon Slaying Sword really that powerful?"
Mei Xiaoxian had never seen the Demon Slaying Sword, so when she took it in her hand and looked at it carefully, the hilt of the sword looked good, but as soon as she touched the sword body, she was almost burned by a blue light. Frightened, Mei Xiaoxian threw her sword and complained about the little fox.
"What? You're in for it. ”
"I'm here to let them know what a demon heart is!"
Hua Xiaohu pulled a piece of cloth from himself, carefully wrapped the demon sword, and then carried it on his back.
"What are you doing? Don't throw it away. ”
"Thrown? That's a shame. Look at me, do you look like a swordsman in the world? ”
"Alright, let's go, lest those two nasty fellows catch up again."
"Indulge in a sword, goodbye to the rivers and lakes, hahaha......."
In this way, the two left while fighting.
By the time the sky was white, Mei Xiaoxian and Hua Xiaohu had already left far away, but they forgot one thing, the demon hunter was good at tracking, not to mention, Hua Xiaofox still had his demon slaying sword on his back.
Besides, the master and apprentice of Yanbei Desert lost his wife and soldiers, and all his belongings were compensated, and the demon sword was taken away by the little fox, which really touched the sky.
"Master, am I particularly useless?"
Yan Qingshan lowered his head and followed behind Yan Beimo, particularly depressed.
"Well, it's useless."
Yan Beimo's voice was very low, almost as low as if it came directly from his throat.
"Ah...... that apprentice still won't be a demon hunter, so as not to lose the master's face."
Yan Qingshan was even more depressed, and his head was lowered. He understands that the demon hunter was stolen by the demon sword, what a shameful thing it is, if this is known by other demon hunters, the master's name of "Divine Swallow" will be completely ruined. He was thinking, perhaps, that he was not born to hunt demons.
"What? After going to the thatched house, let the teacher wipe your ass? ”
"No, no, no, the apprentice doesn't dare, the apprentice just feels that his talent is dull and has dragged the master back."
"It's been delayed."
"The master will punish the apprentice severely, and the apprentice will not complain."
"There will be punishment, but not now."
"Huh?"
Yan Qingshan was surprised again. He was so stupid that he forgot to get his stuff back.
"It's not too late to recover the demon slaying sword, and it's not too late to punish you."
Yan Beimo glanced at Yan Qingshan coldly, stretched out two fingers of his right hand, and swiped them across his eyes. He was chasing Mei Xiaoxian and the others.
"Yes, in vain."
"Let's go, ten miles ahead, there is a gazebo, my belongings, should be there."
Yan Beimo put away his fingers and walked forward quickly, and Yan Qingshan hurriedly followed.
Ten miles away, a simple gazebo. One or two horses, two or three guests.
"Boss, a pot of tea and two side dishes!"
Sure enough, as soon as Mei Xiaoxian and Hua Xiaofox's buttocks landed, they shouted for food and drink, and walked all night, and the two of them were hungry at this time.
"Okay! Wait a minute, two guest officers! Coming soon! ”
A familiar and crisp voice, while greeting, busy.
Mei Xiaoxian was thirsty and tired, and she drank a few sips of the tea that had just come up.
"Hehehe, Xianxian, slow down."
What the little fox is worried about is adding tea and wiping the corners of his mouth. He's a good fit for that.
"Uh-huh, I'm dying of thirst."
The two rested in the gazebo for a while, intending to continue on their way. At this time, four horseback riders came, judging from their costumes, they should be people walking the rivers and lakes, each carrying a sword.
When she passed by Mei Xiaoxian's side, the person in front of her deliberately looked at her twice.
Hua Xiaohu suddenly intuitively felt that there might be a small episode.
