Wu County is located in the eastern part of Jiangyang Province, and on the outskirts of the county is a mountainous area called Qingyang Mountain. It is precisely because of the location of the Qingyang Sword Sect that this mountainous area is named Qingyang. This sword sect is famous for its Qingyang swordsmanship, and the disciples in the door have a deep kendo cultivation, although it is only a second-rate force in the rivers and lakes, but because the disciples of the Qingyang Sword Sect are kind and generous, it has an excellent reputation in Wu County, and is deeply loved by the people of Wu County.

The moon is high in the dead of night.

The three disciples of the Qingyang Sword Sect, Wang Xiaomin, Zhang Zhang, and Zhao Quezheng, were in charge of patrolling a narrow mountain road of the Qingyang Sword Sect.

Wang Xiaomin was blown by the cold wind and shivered, as if the skin was cut by a piercing steel knife, in order to resist the cold mountain wind, the three of them had no choice but to use their strength at any time to protect their bodies, but unfortunately, the martial arts of the three did not arrive home, and they could only relieve the cold for a while.

He couldn't help but complain: "Why is the wind so cold today!" It's my turn to patrol the mountains again, and it's really unlucky. ”

Zhang Zhang next to him persuaded him: "Xiaomin, don't complain, complete today's mountain patrol honestly, and next time we can change to other tasks." ”

"That's right, then we can change the task of going down the mountain to the county seat to collect items." Zhao Que also helped respond, and at the same time showed envy, "It would be great if you could go to the county seat to do tasks, see all kinds of new things and make friends in the rivers and lakes like Senior Brother Chen Mu." ”

Wang Xiaomin nodded after hearing this: "Yes, then let's go together, it's too cold." ”

Sand ~ Sand ~ Sand ~

Suddenly, there was a strange noise in the grass on one side.

The three of them turned around suspiciously, stretched out their torches to the lawn, and found nothing but sound.

"Anything?" Wang Xiaomin asked a little frightened.

Zhao Que suggested: "Let's go in and have a look together." ”

As soon as the words fell, the three of them tacitly took out the sword weapons in their hands, Zhang Zhang took the lead, pushed aside the bushes, and walked in, the environment in front of them was even darker, and even the torches could only illuminate one meter in front of them.

The three of them took a turn and found nothing.

Wang Xiaomin muttered: "It can't be a small animal, such as a snake?" ”

Suddenly, a swift gust of wind blew in the grass, just a whirlwind swept away, directly blowing out the flames of the torches in the hands of the three people, and suddenly darkness shrouded the three of them, and they couldn't see their fingers.

Panic continued to spread in the hearts of the three men.

Wang Xiaomin, who was at the end of the line, had already stepped back in fear, but at this moment, a hand grabbed his shoulder.

Wang Xiaomin, who was grabbed on the shoulder, trembled, and asked in a trembling voice: "Zhao Que, what are you doing patting me on the shoulder?" ”

Zhao Que beside him defended: "I didn't pat you on the shoulder." ”

was about to turn to Zhang Zhang, but Zhang Zhang had already preemptively replied: "Neither do I!" ”

At this time, Wang Xiaomin's panic reached its peak.

And Zhao Que next to him also found something, his eyes widened, his chin opened wide, and his trembling fingers pointed at Wang Xiaomin's back, unable to speak.

I saw that at this time, behind Wang Xiaomin, a pair of eyes with dark eyes and blood-red pupils were revealed, like a cannibalistic abyss, and Zhao Que's mind was taken into his eyes, and he was terrified.

At this time, Wang Xiaomin also realized that there was someone behind him! Hurriedly attacked the rear with the sword weapon in his hand.

However, the monster behind him was much faster than him, just a pounce, and the big mouth full of sharp teeth had bitten Wang Xiaomin's neck, and his whole person was like a deflated balloon, which became shriveled at an alarming speed, and was quickly sucked dry.

But the monster behind it was not satisfied with this, and ate the dried corpse one bite at a time, and the sound of the bones chewing made the thighs of the other two tremble, and the whole person stood still.

"What are you!!"

Zhao Que raised the sword weapon in his hand with a trembling hand and pointed at the thing in front of him that only showed blood-red eyes.

The monster didn't answer, it was another flutter, and before Zhao Que could react, he was thrown to the ground, bitten by a sharp tooth in the neck, and soon followed in Wang Xiaomin's footsteps.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Zhang directly threw away the torch and ran out, he knew that if he didn't run, he could only become food for monsters.

It's a pity that the monster's speed is too fast, and just when he was only one step away from stepping out of the grass, the monster had already caught up, and Zhang Zhang was pounced on by the monster.

"Yes...... Yes! Zhang Zhang exclaimed in surprise and let out a final scream.

The weak and helpless Zhang Zhang could only make his last sound, but this voice also came out, causing the other patrolling disciples of the mountain path to notice and start to move closer here.

The man-eating monster, with blood flowing from its mouth and a terrifying "clucking" sound, crawled on all fours towards other mountain trails, the speed was terrifying, and the glowing claws made people tremble.

Soon, the disciples who were patrolling the mountain in the distance died one after another, letting out bursts of sharp screams.

Slowly, the screams began to spread to the inner courtyard of the Qingyang Sword Sect.

Screams, screams, scolding, cries for help, begging for mercy, one after another.

Finally, there was an exclamation from the head of the Qingyang Sword Sect.

"Damn, you're heaven..."

After that, the entire Qingyang Sword Sect was dead silent, and several streams of blood flowed out of the cracks in the gate of the sect, staining the entire mountain road in the Qingyang Mountain area, and the smell of blood was overwhelming.

-------------------------------------

The sun is in the sky, and the warm sun shines on the streets of Changxing County.

Chen Jiuyou was standing at the corner of the street, leaning on the granite pillar next to him, squinting his eyes and lazily basking in the sun, no one dared to make trouble under his nose anyway, and he was happy to be idle.

Suddenly, a signal flare sounded in the sky above.

Chen Jiuyou opened his hazy eyes, stretched out a lazy waist, and commanded the void: "You continue to patrol, I will come when I go, don't take it lightly, be serious and responsible for patrolling the streets, I'm leaving." ”

After saying that, he picked up his light work and disappeared ghostly in the crowded streets.

Soon, Chen Jiuyou came to the branch of the Heavenly Shogunate in a hurry and walked straight to the meeting room.

At this time, in the living room, Cai Kun and Gan Tian had already sat down in their respective positions. Chen Jiuyou bowed to the two of them, Gan Tian also bowed in return, Cai Kun nodded, and Chen Jiuyou, who finished greeting, sat directly next to Gan Tian, closing his eyes and recuperating.

After a while, Lu Yuanming, Yin Wen, and Niu Jun came one after another, and Lu Yuanming smiled when he arrived, and greeted Gan Tian, Chen Jiuyou, and Cai Kun one by one.

There is only one Duanmu Lei left who has not yet arrived, but it seems that Cai Kun does not care about this person, as if he regards this person as air.

Seeing that the basic people were all there, Cai Kun coughed and was about to speak.

"It's a big deal to call all the general flags here."

Speaking of this, Cai Kun looked around, and when he landed on Chen Jiuyou, he showed an inexplicable look, and he spent a longer time watching Chen Jiuyou.

Chen Jiuyou saw Cai Kun showing an inexplicable look at him, and was curious, what made Cai Kun show that kind of look to himself?

Soon Cai Kun came back to his senses and continued with a heavy heart: "Everyone knows the three counties next to us, that is, Wu County, Shanxian County, and Liu County. During this time, there were shocking cases of extermination in the three counties one after another, and the 300 population of the Qingyang Sword Sect in Wu County, the 280 population of the Feng family of the Wulin family in Shanxian County, and the 530 population of the Tiger Martial Arts Hall in Liu County were all killed. ”

"These three earth-shattering cases have made the entire Sanxian martial arts unstable, and many people in the rivers and lakes have fled from the three counties, which is the place of right and wrong, and at the same time, they have also alarmed the Jiangyang Mansion Tianshogun, that is, our superiors. Now those martial arts families and sects are afraid of becoming the murderer's next target to destroy the sect, so they use this to exert a lot of pressure on the Tenshogunate, so the superiors gave a death order to solve the case within two weeks. ”

"However, the strength of the Tenshogunate in the three counties is weak, and it is difficult to solve the case, so I asked the surrounding counties to form a special team of ten people to be responsible for this extermination case, so that you can come, mainly to ask which of you is willing to go."

After Chen Jiuyou heard this, he was extremely surprised in his heart, and said secretly, "Sure enough." ”

Some time ago, he learned from Shen Hongfei that the Hades Palace had actions in Wu County, Shanxian County, and Liu County, and Chen Jiuyou knew at that time that something big would happen in the three counties, but he didn't expect that it was this amazing door destroying case, but was this door destruction case really done by the Hades Palace? This is also too audacious. Chen Jiuyou didn't know either.

Cai Kun was shocked when he saw that everyone heard his words, and looked around again, taking in everyone's faces.

"Since no one took the initiative, I ordered it myself."

Hearing this, everyone looked at Cai Kun, and it is estimated that everyone was silently chanting in their hearts, "Don't click me, don't click me." ”

"Jiuyou, it's you, I'll leave this matter to you." Cai Kun pointed at Chen Jiuyou with his finger, "Each of your other teams will draw one person and join Chen Jiuyou's team, there are just ten people, so let's settle it like this." ”

Although Chen Jiuyou didn't want to take on this task and didn't want to cause this trouble, since Cai Kun had already named him, he could only accept it.

Stood up, took a step forward, and replied: "The subordinates will definitely complete the task." ”

Cai Kun nodded with satisfaction, and looked at Chen Jiuyou with meaningful eyes: "Jiuyou, remember to be careful in everything, ensure your own safety, and don't rush in, but you must also complete this task seriously and responsibly." ”

Chen Jiuyou nodded, indicating that he knew. At this time, he also knew in his heart that the reason why Cai Kun chose him as the captain was mainly because of the actions of the three counties of the Hades Palace mentioned by Chen Jiuyou and Cai Kun some time ago.

Yin Wen and Niu Jun showed gloating expressions, and they must have cursed Chen Jiuyou in their hearts for being killed by that murderous murderer.

Cai Kun looked at the expressions of the two, sneered, and continued to command.

"Okay, since the matter has been arranged, let's end the game, the rest of your teams remember to draw one person to report to Chenjiuyou, and the strength level must reach the seventh level of the day after tomorrow. Nine tours, you will leave tomorrow. ”

Niu Jun's face changed greatly after hearing this, only his nephew Niu Guangsheng had reached the seventh level of the day after tomorrow in his team, how could he be willing to let his nephew take risks as if he were his own, and hand it over to his political rival Chen Jiuyou, wouldn't he push it into the fire pit?

Cai Kun shook his sleeves with an ugly face, and reprimanded angrily: "This task is not trivial, of course, we must concentrate on dealing with it, and if I am unwilling to obey, I will take off this flying fish suit!" ”

Niu Jun dared to be angry after hearing this, his whole face was red, and he was about to speak.

Yin Wen had already grabbed his big hand, shook his head at him, and then apologized to Cai Kun: "Commander Cai, Niu Jun is also confused for a while, we will do what you ask." ”

Cai Kun snorted coldly, and walked directly into the inner room without looking back.
