Chapter 244: Koike Town
The East China Sea Liubo Mountain, seven thousand miles into the sea, the road is far away, with the cultivation of Xu Ran and Lu Xueqi, it will take ten days for the sword to fly, which is not much, because they are located in the Central Plains, and they are thousands of miles away from the East China Sea.
Moreover, it is impossible to fly day and night, and it is extremely energy-consuming to fly for a long time, so every time you fly for two or three hours, you have to stop and rest.
At night, rest in the nearest town.
Along the way, a lot of time was spent enjoying the scenery along the way, but fortunately, not only did there be scenery along the way, but there were also beautiful women around me, so Xu Ran didn't feel bored.
Day 4, afternoon.
Xu Ran stood high in the sky, overlooking a small town below, turned his head to Lu Xueqi next to him and said, "Senior sister, we are about to approach the East China Sea, let's recharge here today, and let's hurry tomorrow."
After rushing for several days in a row, he didn't rest for long when he stopped, Lu Xueqi's pretty face showed a little more tiredness, and she didn't have any meaning to Xu Ran's proposal, so she nodded a little.
The two of them avoided attracting unnecessary attention, so they descended outside the town and followed a stone road into the town in front of them, and at the entrance of the town, there was a stone monument called Koike Town.
"Koike Town"
Xu Ran saw these three words and felt a little familiar.
After thinking about it carefully, I remembered that in the original book, Xiaochi Town made a monster, and Zhang Xiaofan got the Zhengu artifact Xuanhuo Jian of Incense Valley by chance here, which can be described as bad luck.
I don't know if Zhang Xiaofan came here in advance, if not, he might be able to get a treasure, no less than a treasure of the Dragon Slaying Sword, Xu Ran thought with his chin scrubbed.
"Senior brother, what's wrong with you" Lu Xueqi couldn't help but ask out loud when she saw Xu Ran groaning in place.
"Oh, it's nothing, let's go in" Xu Ran came back to his senses and said with a slight smile.
The two of them entered Koike Town along the path, and although the two of them changed into ordinary clothes before coming, the two of them came in, which also caused side notes from onlookers.
No matter how the two of them hide their ordinary, they can't hide the unique temperament of the cultivator, and Lu Xueqi's face is stunning, so it is difficult not to attract the attention of others.
The people of Koike Town were mostly dressed in coarse cloth clothes, and the folk customs were simple, and they looked at the two outsiders curiously.
The two of them walked along the path in Xiaochi Town, and finally Xu Ran faced an inn called 'Sanli Inn' and said, "Senior sister, let's settle down in this inn tonight."
"Senior brother, it's good for you to make a decision," Lu Xueqi pursed her lips.
The two walked into the Sanli Inn together, Xu Ran asked for two guest rooms, threw down four taels of silver, and the store happily went to decorate the room for Xu Ran.
After asking for a room, Xu Ran ordered some more food, and ate in the hall with Lu Xueqi, halfway through eating, the sound of clanging gongs and drums suddenly sounded outside.
"The mayor of the town called the people to assemble"
"Let's hurry over"
Then the two men saw many people running in the direction of the gong, looking eager.
"Shopkeeper, what are you villagers doing here," Xu Ran asked curiously.
"Hey, you're not a local, right?" the shopkeeper heard Xu Ran's question, so he said with a sad face: "Our Xiaochi Town, we have always been safe, but recently a monster has come, living in the Black Stone Cave ten miles away from our Xiaochi Town, and every once in a while, it will come to our Xiaochi Town to take away cattle and sheep, making us miserable."
The shopkeeper looked like he was spitting: "This monster has strong mana and profound Taoism, we as ordinary people, naturally we can't help it, recently this monster has become more and more unscrupulous, because we kidnapped our cattle and sheep, and we found out that we resisted, but killed the villagers of our Xiaochi Town."
"This monster has given us a headache, the mayor is gathering everyone to discuss how to get rid of this monster, hoping to find a way to get rid of the monster and give us a peaceful life," the shopkeeper said with a depressed face.
"Now that the righteous path is prosperous, the demons dare to come out to make waves and harm the people, and the crime should be changed and killed," Lu Xueqi said with a cold face.
Growing up in Qingyunmen since childhood, the master instilled the concept of Lu Xueqi slaying demons and destroying demons and doing the right thing for heaven, so when he encountered this kind of thing, the justice in Lu Xueqi's heart was stimulated.
In fact, every disciple of the Righteous Path has been instilled with this philosophy.
As for Xu Ran, he didn't think of getting rid of the demon now, but he was very surprised, if the expectation was good, the demon in Xiaochi Town should be the fox demon in the original book.
It stands to reason that this monster will be removed by Zhang Xiaofan and others, and the treasure will also be obtained by Zhang Xiaofan.
Could it be that his arrival changed the plot of Zhu Xian, Zhang Xiaofan did not pass here.
"Little girl, be cautious, that monster has great powers, don't let that monster listen to this" The shopkeeper saw Lu Xueqi and a little girl, and said this disgusting thing about monsters, and hurriedly said nervously.
The monster has already killed a few people, and the people of Xiaochi Town are panicked, where is the reason why the store is not afraid.
"Senior brother, let's go out and take a look, what kind of demon scourge is here" Lu Xueqi turned her head and asked for Xu Ran's opinion.
"Okay, let's go out and have a look," Xu Ran said after thinking for two seconds.
If the monster in Xiaochi Town is a fox demon, it is necessary to go this time, because in the hands of the fox demon, there is Xuanhuojian, which is regarded as an artifact in the world of Zhuxian.
If you don't go, wouldn't you lose an artifact in vain?
The two got up and walked outside.
The shopkeeper watched the two walk out of the store, shook his head speechlessly, just regarded the two as men and women who loved to join in the fun, and when they really saw the monster, they knew that they were afraid.
After the two of them went out, they walked a short distance, and saw a large group of people in front of them, including three or four principals, standing on a high platform, facing hundreds of Xiaochi Town villagers below.
"Villagers, the demon is really powerful, I and other ordinary people are far from being the opponent of the monster, a month ago, the monster did not hurt people, just kidnapped some cattle and sheep, and recently the demon began to hurt people, several people have died in the hands of the demon, today I am anxious for you to come, is to let you come up with ideas, how to subdue the demon in the black stone cave." A man on the high platform faced the villagers below and said impassionedly.
"Mayor Mare, what do you think we should do?"
"I feel like we can move out of Koike Town"
"But our ancestors have lived here for generations, and this is our roots, and even if we move away, where can we move to?"
"It's just, I don't want to move out"
The villagers had a heated discussion, some agreed to move out, and some did not.
"Everyone be quiet" The mayor pressed down with his hands, and said to everyone: "I discussed with Bao Chang Li and Fan Xiucai, posted a notice, and asked cultivators to come and catch demons, but this requires a large amount of money, so please also ask for your help."
"What do you think of my proposal?" after a pause, the mayor looked at the crowd and asked.
