Chapter 484 ; Qingyuan County, the scourge of mountain demons
The thunderbolt talisman is the most powerful of all the talismans, although Xu Fan gave Lin Jia an ordinary thunderbolt talisman, not a super talisman such as a thunderbolt rune, but it is not bad.
When the spell was activated by Lin Jia's mana, it directly turned into thunder and lightning and slashed towards Xu Fan, but when the thunder and lightning were about to slash Xu Fan, Xu Fan turned around and dodged it.
Rumble!!!.
The thunder and lightning suddenly slammed on the ground, splitting a two-meter-wide charred black pit on the ground, which shows the power of this blow, if this is split on the body of some monster, even if it can't be split, it is estimated that it can be split half to death.
"Senior brother, is that you? Are you okay. Seeing that it was Xu Fan, Lin Jia's face suddenly turned white and he immediately looked apologetic.
Then he walked directly towards Xu Fan, wanting to see if Xu Fan was injured.
"What's wrong with you, why are you so pale." Xu Fan shook his head, Lin Jia wanted to hack him, unless he was willing to hack Lin Jia, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to hurt Xu Fan at all.
"Is there one?" Lin Jia wondered.
Seeing Lin Jia deliberately pretending to be stupid, Xu Fan still didn't understand, this girl was scared like this, no wonder after he landed, this girl threw the thunderbolt charm over without looking at it, probably treating him as a monster.
And looking at the cold sweat on her forehead that had not yet been wiped off, it was not difficult for Xu Fan to imagine how intense her mental activity was just now.
This is the so-called victim paranoia, a very normal thing, as if a person has been in a dark place for a long time, he will think of ghosts, suspicious of ghosts, feel as if there are ghosts around him, and scare himself.
And Lin Jia estimates that this is the case, but thinking about it, under the cliffs deep in the dense forest, it is dark everywhere, although it is daytime, but the light is not very good, it looks a little better than the night, staying in such a quiet environment, timid people, there are indeed some easy to be nervous.
And Lin Jia, no matter how you look at it, doesn't look like the kind of person who is particularly bold.
"By the way, Senior Brother Zhou, are you okay, I didn't hurt you just now."
"Don't worry, you didn't hurt me, if I can be hurt by you, then I can be considered a fool all these years." Xu Fan knew that the girl was deliberately diverting the topic, but Xu Fan didn't care about this, so he followed her words and took the topic away.
"What about the monster?"
"The monster has been killed by me, we can go back."
"Slashed, so fast?"
"Why, you don't believe in my strength."
"Where, I'm just a little surprised." Lin Jia hurriedly shook his head and said.
She wouldn't believe in Xu Fan's strength, she could draw talismans in the air, and she could draw them one by one, such a skill, it is estimated that even her master would be difficult to do.
Where would she not believe in Xu Fan's strength.
As for why Xu Fan was injured by that monster at the beginning, in her opinion, it may be that Xu Fan was careless.
Moreover, Xu Fan also said before that his strength has been improved in the battle with that monster, and he is already even more powerful, and it is not impossible to kill that monster.
"Then let's go back."
"Okay."
When the two returned to the village and told the old village chief that the weasel spirit was dead, the news quickly spread throughout the village, and for a while, the whole village, men, women, and children, were all smiling.
The sad face that was originally on his face can no longer be seen.
For this reason, the village chief also specially asked the women in the village to make a big banquet together and entertained Xu Fan and the others.
Next, Xu Fan and Lin Jia stayed in Huangcun for three more days before leaving.
The reason why the two stayed for three days was to reassure the hearts of the people in the village.
In three days, nothing strange happened in the village, and the people of Huang Village were immediately relieved.
However, when Xu Fan left, the old village chief still had a cheeky face and asked Xu Fan for a few evil charms.
Xu Fan didn't skimp on a few spells, and gave them to Huang Ming, as long as they were posted at the entrance of the village, ordinary little demons would basically not make trouble in Huang Village.
Subsequently, Xu Fan and Lin Jia left amid the gratitude of the villagers.
"Daoist Zhou, they are really good people."
"Yes, these days, I don't want to be paid after doing things, it's really almost rare."
"Yes, it's okay if you don't want to be paid, you even pointed us to make a fortune, what a good person."
"Village chief, you say, if our village is rich in the future, do you want to set up an elephant for Zhou Daochang, so that Zhou Daochang can enjoy the incense?" Someone spoke up.
"Looks like it's okay."
On the other side, Xu Fan, who left, didn't know that the people of Huangcun were discussing building a temple for him, if he knew, Xu Fan would probably only cry and laugh.
Because the tributes in the temple are all immortals, even if they are not immortals, they are still dead people, and making statues to a living person is not a curse for early death.
"Senior brother, where are we going next, are we going back to Longhu Mountain?" On the way, Lin Jia asked Xu Fan.
"Back to Longhu Mountain? Don't worry, by the way, where is your home, you don't just plan to follow me like this. ”
"People.... People don't have it. ”
"Then you say, where is your home, and now I know your name with you, and I don't know anything else, don't you plan to tell me."
"It's not.... Isn't that time? If my brother knows, I will definitely say, I am from Suzhou, and my family is ..... The family is in business. With Lin Jia's narration, Xu Fan knew that the identity of this girl was not simple.
Her father is a well-known Jia merchant in Suzhou, and his family is very wealthy.
And Lin Jia is Lin Jia's only daughter, yes, only daughter, in ancient times, it was difficult to meet an only daughter, especially a rich family, with only one daughter, basically can't see it, after all, in this era when you have money, you can have three wives and four concubines, it is normal for seven or eight daughters to have seven or eight.
But Lin Jia is an only daughter, there are three elder brothers, and two younger brothers, but the daughter, she is the only one in the Lin family, and it is precisely because of this that she is particularly favored.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for her, a girl, to join Longhu Mountain.
Although the Tang Dynasty is now prosperous, the law and order are much better than the troubled times, but no matter what dynasty it is, the law and order cannot be so good that no crime will happen, Lin Jianeng worshiped in Longhu Mountain, if there was no Lin Jia's father to do it, Xu Fan would not believe it.
After all, Lin Jia's talent is not particularly good.
It took two years to reach the Qi Induction Realm, and the talent is not excellent, but it can only be regarded as a little better than ordinary people.
"What about you, Senior Brother Zhou?"
"Me, my family is from Chang'an City."
"Chang'an City?"
"Yes, Chang'an City." Subsequently, Xu Fan didn't say too much else.
"In this way, I will send you back to Suzhou first, you go back alone, it is not very safe, and when I send you back to Suzhou, I am going back to Chang'an City alone?"
"Is that okay?" Lin Jia's eyes suddenly lit up, and her face was surprised.
She originally thought that she was going to drink Xu Fan and separate, but she didn't expect Xu Fan to take the initiative to send her home.
As for Xu Fan coveting her family's money or something, she didn't think about it at all.
How can she say that she is also a rich lady, Xu Fan's clothes, can't others see her back? .
The material of Xu Fan's clothes is not something that ordinary people can wear at all, and in combination with Xu Fan's family in Chang'an City, she can almost be sure that Xu Fan's family background is not simple.
"What's not to do, you've called me senior brother for so many days, and I, the senior brother, won't send you, so what's the matter." Xu Fan chuckled.
In fact, Xu Fan wants to walk around more and see the things of this world.
As for the matter of returning to Chang'an City and returning to Tiger Mountain, there is no hurry.
Anyway, the exercises of Dragon Tiger Mountain, his master had also passed it on to him, and he was not in a hurry to return to Dragon Tiger Mountain when he had not broken through to the realm of transforming gods.
Moreover, he did have some worries about Lin Jia's girl going back alone.
After all, this is a world where gods, demons and demons exist, and it is still quite dangerous for her to be a girl and go on the road alone.
"Then thank you Senior Brother Zhou, when we arrive in Suzhou City, I will take you to eat our Suzhou food, let me tell you...... We ........ in Suzhou. ”
…………………………。
Qingyuan County.
It is a small county town that is not very wealthy.
But even if they are not rich, because of the cessation of war, after the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the world is peaceful, and the population is slowly developing, and the kind of thing that you can't eat and go hungry is slowly disappearing.
After all, when there was no longer a war, the people began to cultivate the land.
Although I don't say that there are big fish and meat, but fortunately, I don't die of hunger, and for most people, being able to eat enough is already a very happy thing.
Therefore, even if you are not rich, in Qingyuan County, you can often hear laughter.
But this disappearance, since three years ago, has become less and less.
Because of the mountain demon.
In folklore, there has always been a legend about mountain demons.
These mountain demons like to come out at night, and what they do is to steal children, as for what they are doing stealing children, then they need to ask? .
And Qingyuan County, since three years ago, there have been mountain demons infested.
The number of lost children in Qingyuan County has also increased from one three years ago to more than 40 today.
The loss of so many children is the pain of more than forty families. The pain is hard to describe.
It is precisely for this reason that Qingyuan County has invited Taoist priests or monks who have subdued demons more than once to get rid of demons.
But the people who were invited were either gone forever, or they were halfway through the road and ran away without even asking for money.
This also made the people of Qingyuan County distressed.
The county magistrate was even more worried about this.
The only thing worth being happy about is that the mountain demon will only act once a month, and each time he acts, he will only steal one child, if he steals a lot of children every time, it is estimated that with his inaction, he would have been torn apart by the people of Qingyuan County.
Qingyuan County is calm on the surface, but in fact, it has already been an undercurrent.
The anger of the people may erupt at any time, so the county order has to issue a manifestation, looking for a cultivator who can subdue demons and subdue demons.
And in order to recruit people as soon as possible, the county order also made a bloody investment this time, and directly took out two hundred taels of silver as a bounty.
Whoever can solve the problem of the mountain demon, the bounty of two hundred miles of white eyes is his.
Two hundred miles, which is equivalent to two million RMB, is definitely a huge amount of money.
