Chapter 11: Immortal Demons!
"Apprentice, go and make a fortune for the teacher!" Next to the ancient road in early autumn, Jiang Yu'er sat leisurely in the shade of the tree, and Xue Yueqing went to make fate for Jiang Yu'er with a smile on her face. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Since being trapped and free by the diamond bracelet, Xue Yueqing knew in her heart that she had to wholeheartedly protect Jiang Yu'er's safety, and only ten years later, after ninety-nine tribulations, could he regain his freedom.
Holding the bronze bowl, Xue Yueqing carried two knives on her back and walked all the way along a path.
After walking for a stick of incense, the road ahead suddenly opened up.
A clear river surrounds a small mountain village with an ancient meaning, and Xue Yueqing immediately noticed the abnormality.
Here, it may not be appropriate to say that the village is located, because there are already many very majestic palaces, lofts are horizontal, and the main road is also a bluestone street, and it seems that the villagers are living a rich life.
"Wild Town!" In front of the town, there is an ancient stone tablet with three large characters written on it.
In the town, Xue Yueqing walked for a long time, and she could hardly see a single person.
The streets are dusty, and the broken windows creak in the autumn wind; A cold wind blew, and the strange and silent environment made Xue Yueqing shiver viciously.
"Huh?" Suddenly, Xue Yueqing's expression froze, he suddenly turned around, and behind a window, he saw a pair of eyes and a swaying figure.
Such a big town, Xue Yueqing originally thought it was empty, and she never thought that it was really inhabited.
"Hello, I am a monk from Youfang, do you have a fast meal at home? Of course, it's even better if you have alcohol! Xue Yueqing snorted, but no one paid attention to him.
At this time, in a house in front of Xue Yueqing, an old man with gray hair, a wrinkled face, and trembling when he walked was talking to a black-faced young man with a tiger's head.
"Grandpa, this person can't be an evil dragon, an evil dragon will never transform!" The boy was seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed in coarse linen clothes, and his voice was loud.
"Then give him some food and send him away, there are too many dead people in our village!" The old man's voice was vicissitudes.
"Okay grandpa!" The boy took out two nests from the kitchen, opened the door and walked out.
"Hello, boy!" Looking at the young man, Xue Yueqing stepped forward to say hello.
"This is food, take it and leave!" The boy put his head in a bronze bowl.
"Okay, there will be no time in the future!" Serving the bronze bowl, smoke rises from the back of the snow moon and the thighs, and disappears without a trace in the blink of an eye.
He could feel that there was definitely something wrong with the Wild Town, and he could smell a gloomy demonic aura.
Now that Xueyue Qingxiu has been abolished, the dantian is slowly healing after the treatment of the old witch, and it won't be long before he can open up the inner world again, so he doesn't want to cause trouble.
When Xue Yueqing handed over the bronze bowl to Jiang Yu'er, it was already in the waning days.
"Apprentice, is there a village ahead? It's not early, let's find a place to rest! "After a day's walk, Jiang Yu'er is really tired.
"Master, let's go for a walk again, it's still early!" Xue Yueqing didn't want Jiang Yu'er, who was doing good things, to find out about the strange situation in Manghuang Town.
"You're a master, I'm a master?" Jiang Yu'er glared: "I said rest, rest!" ”
At that moment, Xue Yueqing had no choice, so she took Jiang Yu'er back to Manghuang Town again, and this time, it was the old and young who received them.
Jiang Yu'er is as cunning as a fox, and he discovered the strange situation in the barren town at the first time.
The sun sets, night falls, in the wooden house, the old man lights an oil lamp, the dim light is swaying, with the arrival of eternal night, Xue Yueqing and Jiang Yu'er can find an old and a young gradually trembling body.
"Old donor, is there a demon in the barren town?" Jiang Yu'er couldn't help it and asked out loud.
"Shhhh The old man hurriedly stopped Jiang Yu'er's next words.
"What the monk said is right, there are indeed monsters rampant in our reckless town!" The tiger-headed young man snatched the old man's words, and a thunderbolt burst out of his mouth.
"Are there really youkai? Isn't it amazing? Jiang Yu'er was so frightened that she was trembling, which made Xue Yueqing pouted disdainfully.
"Hey, the monk is not strange, Hu'er is straightforward and fast-talking, please understand!"
The old man's name is Li Nian, who is the village chief of Manghuang Town, and the young man with a tiger's head is called Li Hu, who is the grandson of the village chief.
"The village chief is out of the way, if you don't avoid suspicion, please ask the village chief to tell the deeds of the monsters, maybe we can help!" Jiang Yu'er waved his hand, the old village chief had no choice, and when the four of them sat around the dinner table, the old village chief began to tell the story about the barren town.
Five years ago, Manghuang Town could be said to be the most prosperous town within a radius of 100 miles, surrounded by mountains and rivers, extremely rich in resources, and people lived a happy and contented life, which was a real paradise.
The traffic of Manghuang Town is very developed, and there is a waterway around the town, it is a tributary of the Nine Heavens Falling Immortals, people come and go every day, there are all kinds of complicated goods stores, inns, Fengyue places, and auction houses in the town.
However, the happy life, on that day five years ago, came to an abrupt end.
Under the dim oil lamp, the old village sounded the vicissitudes of life, and explained the situation of that day vividly.
"In other words, five years ago, five miles away from Manghuang Town, there was a high mountain, called Magu Mountain!"
"Five years ago, on a sunny day, the original cloudless sunny day, suddenly covered with dense clouds, and the dark clouds that covered the sky at that time were black and oppressive, like an inverted black ocean, about to fall from the sky!"
"Dark clouds are rolling, and there are thousands of blood-colored lightnings, and the villagers of Mangbarren Town have never seen this situation!"
"The day after this strange weather passed, disaster happened!"
On the night of the second day of that strange vision, an extremely large evil dragon of about ten feet broke into the town and swallowed nine villagers alive that night.
"Monk, you can't imagine how terrible that evil dragon is, it is as small as a house, spewing dragon breath, its black scales are slippery, and it speaks to people, and it scares the villagers on the spot!" The old village chief's expression was still filled with deep fear.
"The evil dragon has told us to send two boys and girls to it every other month, or else, kill all the villagers!"
"In the first two years, we paid tribute on time, and the strong villagers in the village sent them to Magu Mountain, and most of their fate, as we can imagine, were eaten alive by the evil dragon!"
"After the first two years, up to now, the dragon does not want a boy or a girl, but asks us to pay tribute to its gold and silver treasures!"
"Five years have passed, the younger generation in the town is almost dead, and our hard-earned money has all been taken by the evil dragon for themselves, just today, it is a monthly tribute day, but we are not afraid of a copper coin, the evil dragon is likely to come tonight, we, the evil is more auspicious!" The old village chief sighed wistfully.
"Haven't you resisted?" Xue Yueqing asked.
"Why not!" The old village chief slapped the table angrily: "When the evil dragon first appeared, many young and strong men in the village formed an alliance and went to Magu Mountain to prepare to kill the evil dragon, but unfortunately, they never returned!" ”
"In the past five years, there have been many people who have gone to slaughter evil dragons, and there are many swords and guests who have mastered the power of ghosts and gods, but without exception, none of them have made it out of Magu Mountain alive!" This was Li Hu's words, which made Xue Yueqing's slender sword eyebrows furrow slightly.
When the story was finished, Jiang Yu'er's face turned pale with fright, and her lips were constantly trembling.
"Apprentice, or let's go!" Jiang Yu'er looked at the gloomy sky and said in horror.
"Let's go? Isn't it a good opportunity for us to travel through the wind, the moon, the big and the land, and to go through calamities? Xue Yueqing opened her mouth and smiled, which made Jiang Yu'er's heart awe-inspiring, and he almost forgot his sense of mission.
"If my guess is correct, the vision of the Heavenly General five years ago should be that evil dragon crossing the catastrophe!" Xue Yueqing said.
"Tragedy?" Jiang Yu'er, the old village chief and Li Hu all looked confused.
"Not bad!"
"Everything in the world, flowers, grasses, insects and birds, can be psychic!"
"Except for the human beings who are primates of all things, they don't need to cross the tribulation when they step into the cultivation realm, the rest of the creatures need to cross the tribulation!"
"I think, five years ago, the evil dragon should have absorbed the essence of heaven, earth, sun and moon, transformed into chaos, and had spiritual intelligence, so it fell thunder from the sky, it survived, and had a super high IQ and invulnerable dragon body, so it began to cause chaos in the barren town!" Xue Yueqing explained.
"But I don't understand why it wants to harm us. And we didn't offend it? Jiang Yu'er was puzzled.
"This question is very simple, let me ask, mortal, after suddenly having overwhelming power, will you be an honest person in a proper manner?" Xue Yueqing asked rhetorically: "Of course that's impossible; With the power, everyone, every creature, will definitely work hard, as long as it can make him happy, even if it is a loss of conscience, he will do it! ”
This night, the villagers of Mangbarren Town trembled all night, and the evil dragon in their mouths did not come to make trouble, which made the villagers breathe a sigh of relief.
In the early morning of the next day, Jiang Yu'er had a straight face and wanted Xue Yueqing to kill the evil dragon for the villagers.
Because it took ninety-nine eons to complete the merits, Xue Yueqing agreed.
On this day, the only dozen or so villagers left in Manghuang Town also came to help Xue Yueqing repair the tools for killing the evil dragon.
"First of all, I definitely can't do it alone!" In the old village chief's wooden house, Xue Yueqing looked at the villagers in front of her and said, "The evil dragon must have just faded from chaos, and its flesh and body can only be invulnerable at the moment, so it's a good opportunity to kill!" ”
"If you wait for another thirty or fifty years and let it master the Five Elements Dao Technique, it will be troublesome!"
"Little brother, what are we going to do?" An old man spoke.
Looking at the dozen or so villagers in front of her, all women, children, and children, Xue Yueqing held her forehead in pain.
Due to the evil dragons, all the villagers in Manghuang Town ran out, and the rest were some old people and children with weak legs and feet.
"First of all, we need to make bows and arrows, because bows and arrows ,,,!"
"Bang!"
Suddenly, at this moment, a child slammed open the door in a panic, and his face was full of fear, and he screamed, "The evil dragon is coming!" ”
