Chapter 177: Senior Sister 19
Outside the cave, the villagers who led the way heard a voice coming from the cave and shouted to the cave: "Immortal Chief, is this the lair of the demon beast?" ”
This nest was discovered by accident, and the villagers only found the blood stains at the entrance of the cave, and did not enter the cave to explore, which is more important than curiosity.
"It's a monster's lair." Du Ziteng replied.
The crowd continued to search the cave.
In the depths of the cave, a pinch of black hair was found.
"This seems to be the cat's hair?" Bai Nuo looked at it, and smelled the hair again.
"Isn't Ying Cat very timid? How did it end up here? ”
"Why can the demon beast come out, eat people! Not all the monsters we encountered before were like this. ”
Xi Jiang looked around, there were a lot of blood stains on the ground, and some scattered feathers, and said: "There have been no injuries in the village, and these blood stains are not human, but birds." If this cat is really here to eat people, it's been three months, why hasn't it started yet? ”
"That's right! The villagers are ordinary people, and it is impossible to be Ying Mao's opponent. If it's really to eat people, why should the cat still aggrieved himself to catch birds? Liu Hongqiao agreed.
"Could it be that the cat is injured and can only catch birds?"
"Birds are harder to catch than villagers, right?"
"Since you don't know, let's meet the cat! When the time comes, everything will be understood. Xi Jiang decided to lure Ying Mao out to see what was going on?
After a while, everyone came out of the cave and returned to the village.
When he returned, he was standing on the thatched roof, his eyes closed, and his consciousness spread out to his surroundings. The surrounding villagers didn't understand what Xi Jiang was doing, but there was an immortal watching from the rooftop, and they felt a sense of security.
Du Ziteng, Liu Hongqiao and Zhang Zhihe sat on a small table in the courtyard, eating Xiaoyun melon seeds bought from the villagers.
This kind of melon seed is a local specialty, and only this one piece can be cultivated, and it cannot be eaten anywhere else.
"What are you doing, my sister?" Du Ziteng put a small bowl in front of him, there were some peeled melon seeds in the bowl, and he kept peeling new melon seeds in his hands.
"I think Senior Sister An Ling must be cultivating. I have only just built the foundation, Senior Sister An Ling has built the foundation in the late stage, and she can still fight the early stage of Jindan. Liu Hongqiao looked at Xi Jiang and felt a little discouraged.
She held a handful of melon seeds in her left hand and one in her right hand ready to put in her mouth.
Zhang Zhihe turned around, looked at Xi Jiang on the roof for a while, and swore solemnly: "I think An Ling must be studying how to lure that Ying cat out." ”
"Where the cats need to be studied, a few fresh live fish are used."
Xu Yixuan walked over, sat in the vacant seat, and also joined the army of peeling melon seeds.
On the roof, Xi Jiang suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the villagers in the distance, his eyes stained with doubts.
"Senior Sister An Ling, what were you doing just now?" Liu Hongqiao saw Xi Jiang open his eyes and asked.
Xi Jiang flew down from the roof, "I checked the surrounding situation, and the aura around here is not quite right. ”
"Something is wrong with the aura?"
"Hmmm! There is a lot of aura around here, but there seems to be something else inside. Xi Jiang replied.
"What's that?" The melon seed quartet was a little confused.
Reiki is aura, either evil or demonic, but these three are not intertwined in the air, and any monk can clearly distinguish them.
Xi Jiang frowned lightly, and said uncertainly: "I don't know, maybe I feel wrong." ”
Her cultivation is not high now, and her exploration of her surroundings is not accurate, and there is a possibility that she will make mistakes.
In the afternoon, the villagers who had gone to the nearby market to buy fish returned. Xu Yixuan asked the fish to be killed and placed at the entrance of the village, and Xi Jiang set up a trap around the fish.
The fishy smell of the fish quickly dispersed, and Jiang Xi and the others dispersed and hid nearby, waiting for the cat to appear.
A cat's thirst for fish is like a man's thirst for a woman, as long as the cat smells the fishy smell, there is nothing that is not excited, even if it is full, it can take another bite.
It didn't take long for Ying Mao to appear.
It silently approached the tempting smell of fish.
This is supposed to be a large cat, about the size of a large Alaska. And he was very cautious, he looked around for a while, and stretched out his claws around the fish, constantly probing, making sure that there was no one, and then crawled close to the fish and feasted.
Xi Jiang immediately recited the mantra silently and stimulated the trapped formation.
Ying Mao was suddenly trapped, a little nervous and kept pulling the wall, kept making warning sounds in his mouth, and bared his teeth at everyone.
"The little thing is not very capable, but the temper is not small. What's going on? Do you still want to eat me? ”
"This cat is fluffy, so cute!" Needless to say, this is what Liu Hongqiao said.
The villagers knew that Ying Mao had been caught, and they all gathered around. Looking at the huge cats in the trapped array, the villagers were a little scared.
"Immortal Chief, how many levels of demon beasts are this?"
"This is a first-level demon beast, almost second-level." Jang Zhihyuk replied.
Zhang Zhihyuk's answer made the villagers suddenly happy.
"The first-level demon beast is good!"
"This cat is really big, the fur can be sold for a good price, and there is blood."
"I heard that someone in Blackwing City collected cat blood and internal organs."
"It's still a great immortal! It's so easy to catch the cat. ”
"Yes! Oh, yes! ”
The compliment of the villagers opposite, Xi Jiang was not happy, but tightened his brows.
In the trap, Ying Mao's whole body bowed up and kept making a piercing warning sound.
It's scared.
Xi Jiang felt the breath on Ying Mao's body, and there was no evil breath, but some bloody gas. But it's normal for carnivores to have such a bloody aura.
And this Ying cat is very smart, and the aura on his body is faintly surging, and it seems that he is about to advance.
There are two ways for demon beasts in this world to advance, one is normal advancement, and as cultivation increases, intelligence also increases.
But there is also a kind of demon beast, due to various coincidences or its own strong bloodline, it can be advanced into a spirit beast.
Spirit beasts, like the most gifted monks in the human race, are favored by the Heavenly Dao. Compared with ordinary demon beasts, they are smarter, more pure, and their number is extremely small, accounting for less than half of the number of demon beasts.
And the vast majority of spirit animals don't eat people.
Many immortal cultivators like to raise spirit pets, and even make life and death contracts with spirit beasts and fight side by side, just because spirit beasts are wiser and more spiritual than demon beasts.
The villagers did not notice anything unusual about Xi Jiang, and they were still excitedly discussing how to distribute the benefits of selling Ying Mao.
I didn't think about it at all, this cat was caught by a few people in Xi Jiang, and what had to do with them.
Although immortal cultivators generally don't take this kind of low-level demon beast with them, isn't it too natural for the villagers to behave like this?
Xu Yixuan and the others were silent and did not speak, and they were happy to catch the demon beast that caused the disaster. But this cat has never killed anyone, and how can the villagers talk and laugh so much in the face of an innocent creature.
