Chapter 8: The Way to Make Money (2)

In the evening of that day, Qi Yunguan set up a sumptuous feast for all the Taoist heroes and entertained them warmly.

Wei Daozi's master, the old Taoist of Qi Yunguan, also attended the feast. However, he was seriously ill, and after meeting with all the Taoist heroes and politely explaining a few words, he returned to the house to rest quietly with the support of Wei Daozi.

The Daoists ate and drank with their appetites, Jiang Chen and Jiang Wu have always been bad at drinking, so they only ate some meals. There were two Taoist heroes who were even drunk, and they didn't seem to take the next demon catching operation to heart.

Just after noon, before all the Daoists left the feast, suddenly a long wolf howl came from the back mountain, alarming everyone.

"The monster has appeared!" Wei Daozi immediately got up and saluted respectfully to all the Taoist heroes: "Please ask all the Taoist masters to catch the demon!"

"This monster is not at the right time!" muttered a Taoist warrior, who drank the remnants of wine from his glass before staggering to his feet. Before he could stand firmly, he sat down again. Jiang Wu shook his head secretly, this old way is almost drunk, let alone catching demons, even if he is allowed to walk, he may not be able to walk steadily.

The feast stopped, Jiang Chen took out a piece of oilcloth paper, wrapped half of the roast chicken on the table, stuffed it into his arms, and then said to Jiang Wu: "Hurry up!"

In the letter sent to them by Qi Yunguan, it was said that if they had merit in catching demons, they would also be rewarded with three hundred texts. Jiang Chen didn't want this credit to be snatched away by other Dao heroes.

The two brothers were the first to leave the feast and ran straight to the back hill.

Wei Daozi hurriedly persuaded: "Don't worry, two fellow Daoists, it's better to act together and gather everyone's strength to catch demons together!"

"This Taoist leader hasn't sobered up for a while, my brothers will go to explore the truth first!" Jiang Chen excused himself, and soon disappeared from everyone's sight with Jiang Wu.

After stepping into the back mountain, Jiang Chen snorted and said, "I don't want to share the credit with those 'Dao Heroes' who don't live up to their names. Although the two Dao heroes of Qi Yunguan kept saying that the monster was difficult, I had already inquired with the villagers and said that although the monster was terrifying, there had been no cases of killing or injuring villagers before, so there was no need to worry too much. ”

Jiang Wu nodded and said, "I guess it won't be too difficult to deal with!" However, there are some problems with the vision of Qi Yunguan's master and apprentice, you see that the few Daoists they invited to help are obviously indiscriminate, and even some of them are scum who swagger and deceive and ruin the reputation of Daoxia, these people are good at eating, drinking, and blowing nonsense, where can they catch demons!"

Jiang Wu's tone revealed a little anger. Daoxia is engaged in the act of slaying demons and eliminating demons, which is ethereal, and it is originally suspicious and not very acceptable to ordinary people. In addition, some charlatans pretend to be Taoists to deceive the people for profit, which makes many people even more hostile to Taoists, and even generalizes all Taoists to liars.

In the depths of the back mountain, Jiang Wu took out the demon mirror, dripped three drops of blood, silently recited the magic formula, and tracked the demon qi. The blood-red arrows that shine out of the demon mirror are clearly recognizable, pointing directly at a certain prescription position.

"The demon is nearby!" Jiang Wu held an iron sword in his hand, followed the direction of the blood arrow, and rushed over. Jiang Chen followed.

"Huh~" There was another long wolf howl, and judging from the sound, it was really ahead.

Jiang Chen and Jiang Wu rushed out of a dense forest and immediately found a demon - it was a demon beast with silver and white fur and a shape that looked a little like a snow wolf. However, the size of this demon beast was much larger than that of ordinary wolf demons, its body was as huge as an elephant, and its snow-white tail was fluffy, five or six feet long.

"What a big demon beast!" Jiang Wu was startled, such a big demon beast, its strength would definitely not be weak, and it would be very difficult to deal with.

When the demon beast saw the two of them, its blood-red eyes were fierce. It strode towards Jiang Chen and Jiang Wu, and with every step, the ground shook and the mountains shook, leaving deep huge paw prints on the ground.

A small tree the size of a bowl was hit by a demon beast, and immediately crackled and broke and fell to the side.

The demon beast suddenly roared, shocking Jiang Chen and Jiang Wu's ears, and the demonic qi that erupted from its mouth almost blew them down. Such a strong demon beast, if it is caught or bumped by it, I am afraid that it will be crushed.

"It's such a powerful demon beast!" Jiang Wu was shocked, this demon beast was much more powerful than he expected!

"Brother, you go first, I'll break off!" Jiang Wu shouted, he crossed his sword on his chest and protected Jiang Chen. The iron sword in his hand was not much different from the paper paste in front of the huge demon beast! As for the rune paper Dao seal, with Jiang Wu's current Dao attainment, it could only seal one-tenth of the power of this demon beast at most.

"Let's run together!" Jiang Chen grabbed Jiang Wu's arm, turned around and fled. The two brothers ran wildly for a while, but when they didn't see the demon beast chasing after them, they stopped holding on to the tree and gasping for breath to rest.

"It's good that this monster didn't chase after it!" Jiang Chen panted: "I really didn't expect that there would be such a powerful monster here!"

Jiang Wu said: "This demon beast is too powerful, even if you call a few other Dao heroes to besiege it together, it will definitely not be an opponent." Or tell the old Taoist of Qi Yunguan and ask him to send his disciples to the Sanhe River Pavilion to ask the famous Taoist to hunt demons. ”

"That's the only way!" Jiang Chen nodded: "It's a pity that you and my brother don't have the ability to earn that three hundred yuan at present!"

The two brothers then returned to Qiyunguan. On the way, Jiang Wu asked, "Brother, you are familiar with the "Ten Thousand Demon Spectrum", can you recognize what kind of monster it is?

"Let me think about it carefully!" Jiang Chen said. They were too frightened just now to look at the demon beast carefully.

However, Jiang Chen has an excellent memory, as long as he closes his eyes and ponders and recalls carefully, he can reproduce in his mind exactly what happened not long ago, or the phenomena he saw.

"It's huge, wolf-like, not exactly a wolf demon, with a fluffy tail. The silver-white fur is very good-looking, if it is sold for money, I am afraid it will be enough for you and my brother to run the gym for decades!" Jiang Chen closed his eyes and recalled: "And its eyes, red and red are vicious. There was also a lightning-like silver light at the center of his eyebrows......"

Saying this, Jiang Chen suddenly opened his eyes and exclaimed, "By the way, that silver light!

Jiang Wu recalled it carefully, and then nodded: "The demon beast seemed to see it when it rushed over! This silver light makes it look even more fierce. ”

"If there is really silver light!" Jiang Chen muttered, "Could it be that kind of demon beast?"

"What demon beast?" Jiang Wu asked suspiciously, he saw that Jiang Chen's expression was a little strange.

"I'm not sure yet, if I want to be sure, I have to go back and see that demon beast again!" Jiang Chen said.

"Go back?!" Jiang Wu was startled. That demon beast is very powerful and vicious, it was hard to escape, how dare you turn back!

"What are you afraid of!" Jiang Chen said: "If my guess is right, there is no risk at all for us to go back, even if I guess wrong, think about it, this demon beast has appeared in the village several times, and no villagers have been injured." When the demon beast saw us just now, it didn't chase and kill us, which means that it won't hurt people easily. ”

"Okay, I'll go with you!" Jiang Wu saw that Jiang Chen insisted on turning back, so he had to agree.

Jiang Chen said: "Okay! But you remember, don't make a move when you see the demon beast, let me deal with it!"

"You're going to deal with it?" Jiang Wu looked stunned: "Brother, you don't know how to do it!"

Jiang Chen pretended to smile mysteriously: "If my guess is right, to deal with this kind of demon beast, you don't need Dao Law at all!"

"Don't use the Dao method, what is it used for?" Jiang Wu was even more puzzled.

"You'll find out later!" Jiang Chen said with a smile.

It didn't take long for the brothers to return to the vicinity of the demon beast, and after following those huge paw prints, they quickly found the demon beast.

The demon beast roared, its eyes fierce and fierce, as if it was very angry at their departure and return.

Jiang Wu was very nervous, if it wasn't for Jiang Chen's order in advance, he was afraid that he would not be able to hold it back, and he sacrificed the rune paper dao sword.

Jiang Chen was calm. He slowly walked towards the demon beast, took out an oiled paper bag from his arms, threw it in front of the demon beast, and said, "Calm down, here are the things you need." ”

The demon beast immediately stretched out its claws to grab the oiled paper bag, and opened the oiled paper, which was wrapped in half a roast chicken.

The moment he saw the roast chicken, the demon beast's eyes flashed. Its size shrank instantly, turning into a silver-white puppy, no more than a foot long. The puppy munched on the roast chicken in ecstasy, whining contentedly, and flicking its fluffy tail with a very cute look.

Jiang Wu was stunned by this scene and was speechless for a long time.

"Haha, I guessed correctly!" Jiang Chen laughed. He explained: "This monster beast is called Silverquill, and it is greedy by nature, and only when it is hungry or angry, it will turn into a demon form, and it is like an ordinary small domestic dog on weekdays. You see, after it turns into a puppy, a lightning-like silver markings on the center of its eyebrows is its characteristic. ”

"Silverquill intimidates enemies with its huge size, but as long as there is something to eat, they immediately become very well-behaved, don't believe it!" Jiang Chen said, and actually stepped forward, squatting down, and reaching out to touch the fur on Silverquill's back.

Yinquill was still grieving on the roast chicken contentedly, not minding Jiang Chen's touch at all. The vicious and huge demon beast just now turned into a well-behaved and cute puppy in the blink of an eye, and this huge contrast made Jiang Wu shake his head again and again.

"So that's what happened!" Jiang Wu sighed, "No wonder no villagers were injured." Let's tell the elder Qiyunguan about this. ”

"Yes, there are still three hundred rewards to get!" Jiang Chen nodded happily.

Jiang Chen was about to pick up Yinquill, but the latter suddenly whined, and then rushed out with a roast chicken leg in his mouth.

"Don't run!" Jiang Chen and Jiang Wu immediately chased after him, but saw a person coming in front of him, and Yinquill rushed straight to the person.

"Wei Daozi?" Jiang Chen was stunned. The person who came was Wei Daozi, who held Yinquill in his arms and looked intimate.

"This, this is your dog?!" Jiang Chen's mind turned sharply, only to feel that there was an unknown secret behind this matter!
