Chapter Ninety-Three: The Demon Appears
The area of Anli City is not small, and it is divided into several areas.
The south of the city is the dirtiest and messies, and it is full of all kinds of thieves and bandits, plus a large number of civilians live here, and it is a well-known slum in Anli City.
A group of more than ten people left the school field and walked towards the south of the city.
Along the way, there were people on both sides of the street from time to time looking at everyone, with strange eyes, Lin Ran These people, wearing military armor, had a high-spirited temperament, and they looked like the people and horses of the Wind Patrol Army.
In Anli City, the status of the Wind Patrol Army is very special, and they have to compete with demons, sects, and bandits at the same time, and the Yuan Shi of An Li City hate and fear them, after all, the strength of the Yuan Shi of the army must not be underestimated.
Before we got close to the south of the city, the surrounding environment began to become dirty, and the roads were lined with feces and black bloodstains.
Lin Ran walked here with a frown, and led people directly to the place where the Skin-Peeling Demon had appeared yesterday.
In the Wind Patrol Army, there is also a special intelligence department, similar to the secret agents, the information of this skin demon is reported by these secret agents, there is no Yamen patrol in Anli City, and no one dares to come, and all the troubles of this kind of devil are solved by the Wind Patrol Army.
Of course, the Wind Patrol is not in vain.
Killing demons, bandits, and the children of the sect who cause rebellion is considered a military feat, and there is also a reward in the state pastoral city.
"My lord, this is it!"
In the middle, an agent joined in, led everyone to a remote alley, pointed to a deep alley and said, after speaking, the man left quietly.
"Go in and have a look. ”
Lin Ran walked into the alley with ten old soldiers, this alley is very narrow, only two people can pass through, and there are tall stone houses on both sides, densely packed, and there are many people living there.
In the depths of the stony alley, a pool of blood appeared here, and looking at how dry the blood was, it appeared yesterday.
"My lord, there are no clues on this pool of blood, this ......," said a soldier beside him.
Indeed, there are hundreds of people living around here, and it is so difficult to find a skin-peeling demon who is good at hiding here!
"It's really hard. Lin Ran nodded.
He is not a detective, nor is he the head catcher who is proficient in the pursuit of the yamen, it is too difficult to find this demon!
That captain Lan Gu has already been calculated, if Lin Ran returns in vain, not only will he be disgraced, but he will also have to punish the crime, even if he finds the demon by mistake, and returns to the realm of the late Yuan Dynasty by peeling the skin of the demon, he can also borrow a knife to kill!
Lin Ran groaned for a while, and said to an old pawn next to him: "Sun Kang, you are more familiar with the Skin-Peeling Demon, tell me your opinion." ”
Sun Kang was the soldier who said the information of the Skin-Peeling Demon, and hurriedly said: "I also heard a captain of the Streamer Legion talk about it before, I heard that this Skin-Peeling Demon has a dark body, and likes to eat blood marrow the most, and after eating, he wears a human skin and blends in the crowd, and can talk like a normal person, which is difficult for ordinary people to see!"
Hiss!!
The people next to him gasped and felt a chill in their backs.
These demons are terrible!
Think about it, the person who talks and laughs with you on weekdays may actually be a demon in human skin, who may eat you in the next moment......
Lin Ran's eyes flashed, and he whispered a few words to one person, and the soldier nodded and ran outside.
Then, he said to the remaining nine people: "I can only use stupid methods, in a short period of time, there are spies around to stare at, it is impossible for the skin-peeling demon to escape far, you gather all the people around here in the open space in front, I will investigate them one by one!"
"Yes!" the crowd took the order.
The nine veterans are all battle-hardened strong men of the Wind Patrol Army, with extraordinary skills, and there are hundreds of people around here, all of whom are of the three sects and nine streams, but they are not everyone's opponents, and they are all driven out one by one.
"What's going on, why did you kick us out?"
"It's the Wind Patrol!"
"I'm a member of the Imperial Sword Gate, you dare to do something to me, I'm impatient!"
Among these people, there are sects, civilians, and bandits, and they are all clamoring one by one, and their faces are not good-looking.
The nine soldiers drove everyone to the open space, and then returned to Lin Ran, and everyone knew at a glance that it was the non-commissioned officer of the patrol army in front of them, so they stopped talking and looked at Lin Ran.
"I'm under the command of Captain Li Yang of the Wind Patrol Army, and I was ordered to come to investigate yesterday's Skinning Demon, if you don't want to die, stand up for me!" Lin Ran said slowly, lightly.
Skinner!
Hearing this, the faces of these hundreds of people changed, and their eyes looked vigilantly among the people around them, seeing that everyone looked like skin peelers. These people are also people who are afraid of death, and they are naturally afraid of such fierce things as skin-peeling demons, so they no longer speak.
"How are you going to investigate?" asked a small sect disciple aloud.
There are hundreds of people in front of him, each of them seems to be ordinary people, how can they distinguish the evil demons?
"Don't worry, we'll see later!"
After a while, a soldier in green armor hurriedly walked over, holding a wooden basin in his hand, covered with white cloth, and nodded to Lin Ran, signaling that the matter was done.
"Hong Cheng, put this thing in front of everyone, pay attention, and pass it one by one. Lin Ran walked up to everyone and said to the blue-armored soldier.
Hong Cheng answered, and lifted the white cloth on the wooden basin, and it was a basin of fresh demon beast blood mixed with various marrow bones, steaming, obviously just released, extremely bright!
The crowd below pinched their noses and watched the soldier walk by.
Lin Ran was highly concentrated in front of him, his eyes staring at everyone who walked by in Hongcheng, paying close attention to their demeanor, limbs, and eyes. The Skinning Demon is very fond of the blood marrow, and he wants to eat people at every turn, and the blood marrow of the demon beast also contains vitality, and the temptation of the Skinning Demon is too great.
Once these fresh blood marrow appear in front of you, even if they are hidden in the human skin, it is difficult to withstand the temptation and reveal the flaws!
Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly there was movement in the crowd.
Hong Cheng was carrying the marrow of blood, and when he passed in front of a man of medium stature, the man's eyes were full of blood, his breathing became short, and he roared something in his mouth, which was extremely weird.
"Haha, it really appeared!"
Lin Ran's eyes lit up, his spirit was uplifted, he stretched out his hand and sucked in Yuanli, absorbed Hongcheng to prevent him from being killed by the skinning demon, and walked over with a big laugh.
"Roar!"
The wooden basin in Hong Cheng's hand overturned, and the blood marrow showered on the man's body, and the medium-sized man suddenly let out an inhuman roar from his mouth, and a long tongue stretched out from the depths of his throat to lick the blood marrow, and the skin slowly cracked, and a pitch-black demon was revealed, with one eye in blood, surrounded by four thin and black arms, emitting black smoke, and it was extremely weird.
"Strip ...... Skinner!"
"Run!"
This demon was revealed, and the people around him were frightened, their faces were frightened, and they fled with urine, even the sect disciple who was shouting for the Imperial Sword Sect just now also fled with a pale face.
"Assemble a snake formation!"
Sun Kang drank lowly, and led Hong Cheng and the other nine people to form a battle formation, tightly surrounding the Skin-Peeling Demon inside, and the spirit condensed into a strand, forming a big snake phantom around it.
Unlike ordinary people, these ten people are all veterans of the battlefield, and they have never seen any scenes, although the skin-peeling demon is weird and powerful, it can't make them afraid.
The Skinning Demon stood in place, staring at everyone with one-eyed scarlet eyes, dripping with blood all over his body, looking very hideous!
"Wild wolf!"
Lin Ran's hands quickly sealed, the speed of the spell movement was several times faster than before, and the door to summoning opened with his head overhead, and the three-foot tall desolate wolf leaped out.
This skin-stripping demon has extremely keen senses, and it has been hiding in the crowd all year round to cause its cautious temperament, and the moment it sees the desolate wolf, it knows that something is wrong, and leans forward to kill Lin Ran.
Suddenly, the black shadow above its head pressed down, and its body was hit hard in the back, and ten old pawns shot at the same time, Rao couldn't stop falling forward with its strength in the late stage of returning to the Yuan.
Great opportunity!
The desolate wolf flickered a few times, and its huge body rushed straight towards the skin-peeling demon, opening its mouth and spewing out of green gold flames.
The skin-peeling demon was beaten squarely, and he was crushed by the heat and fire poison of the flames, and a bloody light burst out from his single eye, extinguishing the flames, and roaring and waving four black thin arms with sharp nails, and a sharp light flashed, tearing apart the phantom of the coiled snake in an instant.
"Roar~~~"
The inhuman roar resounded throughout the southern city.
In Lin Ran's surprised eyes, this peeling demon turned into a red and black mixed blood light to bypass the flying wild wolf, and went straight to Lin Ran, obviously this devil's wisdom is not low, and he knows that Lin Ran is the master who manipulates this giant wolf.
On the four thin arms, the sharp nails were glowing black, this was planning to peel Lin Ran and suck the blood marrow dry!
