Chapter 71: Demon Hunting

Li Xiang even guessed what the people said, and he could barely understand some of them.

However, one of the men dressed as a scholar was right, shook his head and read the content of the reward, and then sighed with a compassionate look: "Lang Lang Qiankun, monsters are troublesome, hateful little students have no three-foot Qingfeng, otherwise they will behead the demon and eliminate harm for the people!" ”

"Good!"

The crowd applauded the scholars.

Even if it's just an empty word, such pride can still be inspiring.

Li Xiang's heart moved, and he couldn't help but walk up to the scholar, arched his hand and said: "This brother, passing by here on the next road, I heard that the cat demon was in trouble, I don't know if Brother Tai can tell me the details?" ”

The scholar took a closer look, and couldn't help laughing: "Others can't avoid it, talk about demon changes, it's good for you, and you made a special trip to inquire about ......."

"Hehe, I just listened to my brother's bold words, and I think I am also a person of temperament, why don't you make the east from the bottom and drink a few glasses?"

The scholar was also refreshed, and immediately accepted it.

The two of them went to the tavern together, ordered food and drinks, and began to talk.

Through conversation, I learned that the scholar was Xiucai, named Wanxing, a native of the city.

Xiucai met Xiucai, and he was polite, drank a few glasses of wine, and finally began to talk about the topic.

According to Wanxing, this cat demon appeared about two months ago, first on the outskirts of the city, and then even entered the city to harm the people.

More than a dozen people have been harmed, and the deaths are all heart-wrenching.

The victims were all young men and women, between the ages of their teens and thirties, which shows that this cat demon is not killing people indiscriminately, but is targeted and looking for young and energetic people.

As a result, the people in the vicinity were panicked, especially the young people, who did not dare to go out when it was dark.

The faint-hearted even go far away to relatives and friends to avoid evil spirits.

At first, the government thought that it was Jiangyang's thieves, and sent officers and soldiers to search for it. As a result, one night, a few night watchers witnessed the cat demon harming people......

In desperation, a reward order was issued to hire a master to destroy the demon.

"As far as Xiao Sheng knows, there were three masters who tried to catch demons, but the results were ...... Two died in Huangquan, and one went crazy and didn't know where to go. ”

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Li Xiang couldn't help frowning.

So, this cat demon is not shallow?

Thinking about it, Li Xiang didn't plan to leave. As a cultivator, I don't say anything about compassion for the world, but if I encounter this kind of demon that is in trouble in the world within my ability, I should destroy it in order to accumulate merit.

……

Early the next morning, Li Xiang heard a chaotic commotion coming from downstairs.

When I went down, I learned that there was another death in the city......

This time the victim was the son of a well-known wealthy merchant in the city, who was 18 years old and unmarried.

The important thing is that there are four daughters on the waiting list, but only one son.

When he was in his fifties, he took a concubine, and finally gave him a son, so you can imagine how much he was loved.

At the beginning of the demon, the waiter planned to send his son to Jinhua Mansion to avoid it, but in the end, he was not worried that he was alone, so he spent a high price to temporarily hire a few nursing homes for personal protection.

I didn't think about it, but something happened......

Li Xiang inquired, and immediately ran to the waiter's house.

When I came to the waiting house, there were two catchers standing outside. As soon as he saw Li Xiang coming over, he asked vigilantly, "Who are you?" What do you do at the Waiting House? ”

"In Xia Li Xiang, I heard that the demon in Houfu came to take a look."

"See?"

"That's right, I know some ways to catch demons......

Hearing this, the two catchers couldn't help but glance at each other, and then smiled.

"Look at you, you're a scholar from out of town, right?"

"Let's go, let's mess around again, beware of arresting you!"

Li Xiang lazily replied to the two of them, and his figure flashed, and he entered the hospital.

"What's the situation?"

"How did he get in in the blink of an eye?"

The two catchers were taken aback and turned their heads sharply to look over, but they didn't find a human figure.

"Something is wrong!"

"Quick, you can go in and have a look."

On the other side, Li Xiang had already entered the inner courtyard.

In the courtyard, the waiters sat on chairs with withered faces, like dying old men.

A woman stood aside, mourning and weeping.

A few maidens were pale and stood to the side with their hands down, and the atmosphere was quite depressing.

A head-catcher led three of his subordinates out of the back wing, walked to the outside of the waiter, and sighed: "Master Hou, please mourn ......"

The waiter raised his eyes, and his voice was unusually hoarse: "Jin Zhutou, you say, how should this demon be caught?" ”

"This ......" Jin Zhutou pondered for a while, and then said: "Master Hou, it's not that we are ineffective, it's really ......."

"Can you let me see the scene below?"

A man's voice suddenly sounded in the courtyard.

A group of people subconsciously glanced over...... Then, you look at me, I look at you.

Jin Zhutou was puzzled: "Master Hou, who is this?" ”

The waiter was also confused: "Not your people?" ”

"Lord Headcatcher, he ...... He broke in on his own......"

The head catcher standing outside the door finally ran in out of breath.

"What?"

Jin Zhutou was taken aback and subconsciously pulled out his knife.

"Don't be bored, I'm here to catch demons."

As soon as he heard the word "monster hunting", the cloudy eyes outside the waiting staff finally had a hint of brilliance: "Gold catches heads and slow!" ”

The woman who was sobbing couldn't help but glance at Li Xiang......

"Presumably this old man is waiting outside, right? In Xia Li Xiang, I heard that Ling Gongzi was killed by a demon, so I came to find out what was going on, so I could find out the whereabouts of the cat demon. ”

Hearing this, Jin Zhutou couldn't help frowning, and said coldly: "Looking at your appearance, you should also be a scholar from other places." You are a reader, how can you ......"

Before he finished speaking, the catcher who chased in after him said in his ear: "Lord Catcher, this person is a little strange, he forcibly entered the courtyard at first, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye. ”

"Huh? Is there such a thing? ”

"It's true!"

Saying this, Jin Zhutou's face couldn't help but become solemn, and he looked at Li Xiang carefully.

However, the waiter was too lazy to pay attention to other details, and he had only one thought, that is, to destroy the cat demon and avenge his son.

So he trembled and said: "Jin Zhutou, please take this master to see ......"

"Okay!"

Jin Zhutou answered, and together with two subordinates, he led Li Xiang into the room again.

The room was filled with the smell of blood and a wisp of demonic aura that had not yet dissipated......

The bed was splattered with blood, and in a pool of blood lay a young man, his face twisted, and he thought that he had experienced great pain and horror before he died.

Li Xiang stepped forward to check, and it was indeed as rumored that there was a bloody hole in the deceased's chest......

In addition, there were several external wounds on the body, but they were not fatal.

In the end, Li Xiang also found a few hairs that had fallen from the demon cat on the bed, and put them away silently.

Judging from the demonic energy remaining in the house, this cat demon is indeed not a little demon, and has a certain Taoism......
