Chapter 708: Sand River Town Demon Elimination (II)
Yin Kuang "snorted" and said, "With that strength and idle effort, you might as well use it to deal with that willow tree demon." β
Everyone went up to the roof, but it was convenient to move. With the jumping power of the crowd, it is completely possible to run between the rooftops with ease. So the crowd jumped from house to house and went straight ahead. It's a lot better than going around down there. Even Yin Kuang sighed in his shared consciousness: "It's rare to have a time when you're confused." β
Below, a crowd of shouting people still chased after each other, burrowing through the tunnels. Some children also hit Yin Kuang and others with slingshots. Although it looked funny, Yin Kuang and the others couldn't laugh in their hearts.
And when everyone jumped over one rooftop after another to reach the central square, standing on the roof and looking down, they saw a rather amazing scene.
I saw that the square in the center of the town was densely packed with people. According to preliminary estimates, there must be thousands of people. Like those who came before them, everyone has a "web of scars" on their faces. And in their hands, they all grabbed hammers, nails, rakes, hoes, and kitchen knives, and there was a mess of everything. When Yin Kuang and the others appeared, thousands of people below stared at each other's eyes. Rao was in the minds of Yin Kuang and others, and he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.
Of course, in addition to the black heads of thousands of people that attract attention, the willow tree in the center of the town is equally eye-catching. I saw that the willow tree was as tall as two adults, with a graceful and soft body, slender and soft wicker, and the whole exuded a vibrant green halo.
Obviously, the team of thousands of people was actually protecting the willow tree.
Yin Kuang and the others became more and more confused: Could it be that the willow tree demon is really a good demon? But if it's a good demon, then why are all the people in the town covered in scars? Is it difficult or is it not the customs here?
Yin Kuang glanced at the people around him, and then jumped off the roof with everyone. The slow descent of the crowd, which completely defied the laws of physics, made the team of thousands of people restless. Yin Kuang vaguely heard someone exclaiming: "Is it really an immortal?" β
When Yin Kuang and the others landed, the group of people obviously took a few steps back, and they all stayed away from Yin Kuang and the others as if they were ghosts. However, their eyes were still staring at Yin Kuang. It's just a little less vigilant, a little more fearful, and a little bit of awe.
At this moment, there was another shouting and noise from behind. It turned out that the townspeople who had attacked Yin Kuang and the others had arrived. In this way, Yin Kuang and others can be regarded as dumplings.
I saw the shirtless man before tearing away the crowd and said, "The big guys are side by side, there are only so many of them, we slaughtered them all and sacrificed to the 'Willow Goddess'." The song behind him shouted "oh oh" and raised the "weapon" in his hand, and was ready to rush up to fight.
"It's all quiet!"
At this moment, an old but imposing voice rang out. Hearing this voice, those who were encouraged by the bare-chested man to prepare for the fight instantly extinguished the flames.
Yin Kuang and the others looked over, only to see that a gap suddenly parted in the team of thousands of people, and an old man with long white hair walked out of the crowd step by step with a cane, standing at the front of the crowd, and standing about ten meters away from Yin Kuang.
Needless to say, the old man was probably a character like the mayor of the town. Although he looks too old and his eyes are very cloudy, his eyes are quite cold and have a majesty. Combined with the scar on that face, it gives people a sense of horror.
Without waiting for Yin Kuang and the others to speak, the old man arched his hand above his head and said, "Everyone! Xiao Lao'er is the mayor of this Qinghe Town. The surname is Zhang. β
Yin Kuang stood out of the crowd, arched his hand at Mayor Zhang, and said, "Under Yin Kuang." is an exorcist. β
At this time, a shout suddenly sounded in the crowd: "We don't have demons here." I don't need you to exorcise any demons. Get out of our town. β
"That's right! Get out. Otherwise, you will be good-looking! β
Mayor Zhang pushed his crutches to the ground hard, and his voice was not loud but easily shocked the excited crowd quietly, "It's against you!?" Is there still me as the mayor in your eyes? One by one, they hooked their heads and shrunk their shoulders, as if they had done something wrong and had been reprimanded by their parents.
Mayor Zhang said: "Let you see the smile." However, there is no wrong thing to say. The mayor of Xia Tian is the mayor of this town, and he knows everything about the town, and he knows everything in his eyes. But the old man had never heard of a demon haunting the town, scourging the townspeople. Exorcists, you're in the wrong place. In addition, the town does not come into contact with other places, and outsiders are not welcome, so please leave early. Go to the place where there are demons to get rid of them, don't waste your time in a small land. β
The mayor of the town is unceremoniously expelled.
At this moment, even Yin Kuang couldn't help but feel that this time he was a bit nosy with rats and salty radishes. The mayors of a town have said it so bluntly, and with such a big battle to "welcome" everyone, it seems that everyone really has no position to exorcise any demons. You are kind, people may not accept it!
But at the same time, everyone's curiosity has also grown. Obviously, this town is full of abnormalities, and there are indeed demon vines just now, and the mayor of the town is still talking nonsense with his eyes open, so many people are also here to protect the willow tree demon, what is this for?
"Are we just going to leave?" Pan Longtao said worriedly.
"Withdraw?" Wang Ning sneered, "Hmph! I really want to see what kind of youkai can have such great power! So, Wang Ning walked out, a black and a gold blade showing off his wealth above the palm of his left and right hands, and sneered: "Drive us away?" It's not that easy! Today, I'll take a look at what kind of demon is so capable of hanging at the bottom. Get out of the way, get in my way, and send you all to the western heavens! β
"What a big breath. You think we're going to be scared of you, huh? β
"Yes. I advise you to get out of here as soon as possible, and don't lose your good lives. β
Someone in the crowd shouted indignantly.
"Quiet!" Mayor Zhang shook the crowd again, then looked at Wang Ning and said, "Young man, if you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer in front of you." Listen to the old man's advice and leave early. There are many demons in the world, why do you bother us in Qinghe Town? β
Yin Kuang noticed that Mayor Zhang mentioned "Qinghe Town" for the second time. The first time he heard it, he thought that Mayor Zhang had made a mistake, but now he said "Qinghe Town" again. A "Shahe Town" and a "Qinghe Town", although Qinghe Town is more in line with the reality here, the name of "Shahe Town" is indeed determined by the government, and it should be "Shahe Town". In addition, even the archway at the entrance of the town is written "Shahe Town". What is the reason for this?
Wang Ning sneered and said, "Old guy, if we don't leave, how can you tolerate us?" Wang Ning pointed casually, and when he heard a "poof", the ground in front of Zhang Zhenchang's toes cracked a cut horizontally. Mayor Zhang took two steps in shock, and his cheeks were flushed with anger, "You guys...... You guys are unreasonable! β
Tang Rou asked Yin Kuang with consciousness and said, "What should we do now?" Yin Kuang said: "I've come here, and I've made a lot of doubts." If you don't solve this mystery, can you leave with peace of mind? It's a shame to do good deeds and do this. People in other places hate youkai, who would have thought that this town would be so non-mainstream? β
So Yin Kuang said: "Mayor Zhang, it's not up to you to decide whether there are monsters or not. We are professional exorcists. We exorcists have the high hopes of today's saints, and we intend to wipe out the demons in the world and return the people to a prosperous future. And there are demons in this Shahe Town, which has also been confirmed by the government, and many exorcists have died here. Mayor Zhang, how much do you obstruct, could it be that you are in a gang with demons? Or are you being deceived by demons? β
In fact, Yin Kuang could see that those people were not confused at all. The reason why he said this was to paraphrase them.
When Mayor Zhang heard this, he poked the ground with his crutches and said angrily: "Don't mention any official mansion or saint to me!" What else can those dog officials and corrupt officials do besides intensifying their looting of us poor people and making a fortune? Today's emperor is also a faint king, so he raised a group of dog officials. When our mayor suffered from a great drought, instead of relieving us, they came to us to rob the women and men, and beat them to death with sticks if they did not comply, so that the babies had no milk to feed, and the old people had no children to take care of. In the great drought, there was no harvest, and everyone dug up the roots and ate them. How can you understand the misery of that day!? Since then, we no longer rely on any government, we rely on ourselves! Qinghe Town can have today's appearance, do you know how much blood and sweat our generations have paid? All, I will not allow anything to endanger our home. If there really is a demon, it is all those who intend to destroy our town! It's you, you're the demons! β
"Kill the demons! Get rid of demons! Get rid of demons! "The crowd is indignant and shouts angrily!
Whewββ
A cold wind suddenly rose, and I saw the willow tree that emitted a green halo writhing violently. Gradually, the green halo slowly lingered on a faint layer of blood red. m
