Chapter 42: Because of the Demons
Snort!
Suddenly, dozens of rockets were launched into it, directly igniting the fire oil in it.
Rumble!!!
The fire exploded, suddenly igniting the entire hall, and the rolling heat wave set off, blocking everyone's view.
"What a lot! Keep shooting until you finish the arrow in your hand!! ”
Wang Xu saw that everyone stopped, so he roared again.
Most of the Liu family's supplies were concentrated in the entire hall, and there were countless amounts of oil, bows and arrows, torches, etc., not to mention one night, they couldn't be used up in three nights.
Snort!
Another round of rockets went in, and the fire, which had been slightly weakened, skyrocketed again.
Bang!
The pillars on the roof were burned black and fell straight down.
The soldiers of the palace were all red-eyed, shooting the rockets in their hands frantically, and they didn't stop for a moment, until they touched it again and found that there were no arrows left on their waists, so they stopped, and looked blankly at the ruins.
Thankfully, it was only a close-range shot, otherwise these people's arms would have been unusable.
Wang Xu threw down the curved bow in his hand and looked ahead coldly, "Give me a knife." ”
"Brother Xu, I'll accompany you."
Liu Yidao stepped forward and handed over a horizontal knife, and the two of them paced forward, highly concentrated.
Wang Xu slowly pulled out the knife and calmed down to perceive that this was his Yunshen Sword Technique.
"All dead?"
He picked at the ashes under his feet with the scabbard, yes, the hall had been reduced to dust and ruins under the incessant and violent burning, otherwise the two of them would not be stupid enough to come forward and check.
Suddenly, Wang Xu saw a black hair next to him, his heart jumped, and he motioned for Liu Yidao to step back.
"Bring the torch and keep burning!"
"Yes!"
The five soldiers immediately ran over and threw the torches directly to the place where Wang Xu was pointing.
Bang!
A figure stood up directly, with fire flashing all over his body, and his long hair scattered, and pounced violently.
"Get out of the way!"
Wang Xu directly pushed away the stunned soldiers, and slashed straight down with a horizontal knife in his hand.
Clang!
His knife slashed directly into the figure's neck, making a sound of steel clashing.
"Brother Xu, stand back, this thing is too weird to cut in."
Liu Yidao also slashed at his legs just now, but it was the same, it was difficult to advance at all.
Wang Xu ignored it, dodged the purple claws of the black-haired figure, and directly slashed his head and slashed at the head.
"Die!"
The blue tendons on Wang Xu's forehead burst out, and the rejuvenating energy in his body instantly surged out, agitating endlessly.
Woooooooo
The blade of the horizontal knife quivered above the figure's head, sending out a piercing figure.
As if he was enraged, the internal force in Wang Xu's body suddenly stopped, and then rushed towards the knife.
Bang!!!
Under the two huge forces, the horizontal knife exploded directly, and Wang Xu's entire body quickly retreated, and he slid underground for several meters before being held up by the rain steward who rushed forward.
"You're wounded!"
The rain steward said hurriedly.
"It's okay!"
Wang Xu's face was red, his hands were shaking, he stood up, his eyes staring at the figure in the dust.
Roar!!!
The figure in the distance roared, took two steps forward, and fell to the ground with a bang.
Its head has been torn open by a tremendous force, revealing an empty skull.
Wang Xu breathed a sigh of relief, "Poof! A mouthful of black blood couldn't help but spurt out.
He spat out a mouthful of black blood, but instead felt better.
"Young Master!"
Liu Yidao stepped forward quickly and shouted anxiously, "Quick!" Bring the wound medicine! ”
Wang Xu waved his hand and sat down cross-legged directly, ostensibly using rejuvenation to heal his injuries, but in fact, he was preparing to use the power of existence to make up for the injured internal organs and meridians in his body.
"When?!"
He was surprised to find that the power of existence, which should have been a little bit left, suddenly increased a lot.
"Is it so?"
Wang Xu thought about it, but he only had the black-haired figure just now.
"Let's recover first."
On the one hand, he slowly transformed the power of existence into the internal force of rejuvenation, restoring the internal force of cultivation, and on the other hand, repairing the internal wounds of the body, as for the external injuries, he did not use the power of existence to directly repair them, and used the internal force to stop bleeding and heal.
"Whew-"
Wang Xu opened his eyes and exhaled ten breaths before slowly standing up.
"Brother Xu, how is it?"
Liu Yidao stepped forward and prepared to support him, "Bring water." ”
A soldier next to him hurriedly handed over a cowhide bag filled with water.
"No, give me a knife."
Wang Xu directly pulled out the knife of the person next to him, and then he felt relieved, he stepped forward, "Have you seen it?" ”
"Look, it's completely still."
Liu Yidao smiled bitterly, he didn't use it, but said that he couldn't move.
"Human ...... How can there be a demon here! ”
Steward Rain walked over and looked at the corpses on the ground with frightened eyes, his tone bitter.
"Human demons, this thing is human demons?!"
Wang Xu couldn't believe that the thing just now could be a human demon.
He had always believed that humans and demons were something more terrifying, powerful and dangerous.
Although that monster was so powerful just now, it had been burned for so long, and it had even caused him to be so seriously injured, but ......
"Human demons, I'm just hearsay, I didn't expect it to really exist."
Wei Qingfan also stepped forward, with a complicated expression.
Wang Xu felt even more inexplicable, as if a secret he knew alone was suddenly not a cheat.
He turned his head to look around and found that most of the people, including Liu Yidao, looked confused and didn't seem to know these things.
"That's right, it should be a human demon."
The rain steward reaffirmed.
He looked at Wei Qingfan and opened his mouth as if he wanted to ask something.
"Yu Lao, I've just heard that born from people, the inside and outside are extremely changing, and the heart desires, one thought becomes a demon, it is a demon."
Wei Qingfan shook his head, "I just heard a few words from my father, and I don't know anything else." ”
"Alas, the demons ......"
Steward Yu sighed, as if he didn't want to think about it, "I encountered a human demon once in my early years, but fortunately I was saved by a Taoist priest and a hero, otherwise I would have died that year." ”
"What exactly do you mean by a human demon?"
Wang Xu asked everyone's voices directly.
"People have resentment, hatred, and one of the three hatreds is human demons, not only people, but all things in heaven and earth can become demons, and once they become demons, they are human demons.
I met a demon of human skin, who loved human skin, and liked to peel his skin when he was at his most beautiful, and then eat his body alive. ”
Steward Yu said earnestly word by word: "Back then, the old Taoist said that if you want to get rid of people and demons, you must know why he became a demon, otherwise it will be difficult to destroy."
That heroic man fought fiercely with the demons, killed him several times in a row, but failed to completely eliminate him, it seems that the incident worsened, the power of the man and the demon increased greatly, and finally the old way found the cause of its demonization, so he completely eliminated him. ”
He pointed to the corpse in the distance, "Something like this, the old Taoist priest mentioned, although it is also a kind of human demon, but it is only the lowest level of resentment demon, there is no sanity, only knows how to wander around, and kills people when they see them." But it's not something that ordinary people can match. ”
