Chapter XVII: Accountability

Feeling the strong fluctuations, and then looking at its color, Ye Fan's heart shook.

Because it was voluntary by the master, coupled with the reason that the strength was pure, this drop of essence blood entered his body from Ye Fan's arm very harmoniously.

It was accompanied by a wisp of merit on Ling'er's body.

"This drop of essence blood contains the power of the inscription! After I deliberately suppressed it, the demonic energy in it has almost been removed, and even humans can easily absorb it! ”

"Thank you!" Feeling the sincerity of the other party, Ye Fan's heart couldn't help but feel a little moved.

With that drop of essence blood entering his body, Ye Fan suddenly felt as if there was another strange power in his body, which neither belonged to Fang Shi nor came with demonic energy, but it could be used for himself, Ye Fan was pleasantly surprised and immediately wanted to understand that power.

Quickly entered a meditative state, the golden Yuan Shen power and a wisp of cyan power intertwined on Ye Fan's body, at this moment Ye Fan seemed to have entered a very strange state, and at the same moment, a golden spirit bird rune on the back of Ye Fan's right hand flashed away.

Sacrificing a drop of blood, Ling'er's light and shadow immediately became very dim at this moment, as if he was much weaker in an instant.

"Anan!" Ling'er's phantom looked at Ye Fan's body, and when he saw that Ye Fan had successfully absorbed it, he looked at the young man on the side.

"Sister Ling'er! Are you going to sleep again? Seeing Ling'er's phantom with a little tiredness, Anan suddenly felt a little distressed.

"Hmmm! This kid has successfully absorbed my power, but it will take a while to digest it, and during this time, you will come to protect him, and there will be no big problems and you won't bother me! After the instruction, the light and shadow gradually faded and disappeared.

Anan's gaze turned to Ye Fan, who was meditating with his eyes closed, and said with a little sorrow: "Stinky boy! I hope you can give some strength when you pour, don't live up to Sister Ling'er's kindness! ”

After that, Anan found a corner, closed his eyes and recuperated, and started the Dharma protection work for Ye Fan!

.......

The next day at noon.

Hua'an County, on the bank of the river.

Hundreds of boats roamed back and forth on the river, as if trying to find something in the water, and the shore was crowded with people.

"Have you heard, last night's river lantern festival made a monster, a lot of people died, and the head of the Liu family, the organizer, was taken to the county office for questioning this morning! I've seen it with my own eyes."

"I heard that it was a fish spirit, and the officials found the body of the monster three or four miles from the shore this morning, and found that the fish was more than a zhang long!"

"Nonsense! It's clearly a cow spirit, I saw it with my own eyes yesterday, and it's more than a foot at all, that guy is simply a small mountain! ”

"Good boy! How the hell did such a big youkai die! ”

"It was destroyed by an immortal, I was still in the water, and I saw a wave of water a few feet high, and as soon as the immortal waved his sword, the monster and the water wave were wiped out!"

.......

Monsters appear to eat people, and immortals kill monsters.

Although it is nonsense, the simple message has made these ordinary people have a conversation with each other, and more and more people have been attracted to watch the excitement for a while.

Thanks to the fact that there are many officers and soldiers at the scene to maintain order, otherwise many curious people would have to go into the water to see what the dead monster looks like.

At this moment, yesterday Ye Fan was at the place where he was fighting with the monsters.

A big boat stopped on the river, and there were many figures standing on the boat, and the person at the head was the county magistrate of Hua'an County, Liang Ming!

When Liang Ming's gaze swept over the huge fish corpse, he was terrified in his heart.

He received the news that the monster appeared in the river lantern to eat people, it was already early this morning, when he was hurriedly dressed in civilian clothes, ready to ask Master Han to discuss countermeasures, but the second shocking news made him forget what he was going to do.

The mysterious young master has appeared and slain the monster!

After a short period of confusion, the first thing Liang Ming thought of was Ye Fan, whom he had met briefly that day.

Hua'an County can have this kind of strength, it is estimated that there is only that teenager.

It wasn't until noon today that Liang Ming finally confirmed his conjecture.

Liang Ming's side was Mo Lao, and Mo Lao also told everything he saw last night exactly what he saw.

"Heavenly Realm Fang?"

When he heard that Ye Fan turned out to be a Heaven Realm Fang who was hidden deeply, Liang Ming took a deep breath, and then ordered his subordinates:

"Command! The fleet will expand the scope of searching, and be careful, you must find Ye Fangshi, even if you are dead, you must see the body! ”

"Yes!"

An official immediately went down to deliver the message.

"Liu Jingzhong!" Liang Ming's tone was slightly angry, and he called out a person's name.

Immediately, a middle-aged man in a brocade robe walked out of the crowd behind Liang Ming, only to see that this person had distinct facial features, eyes with fine light, and a bit of Confucian elegance.

But at this moment, the middle-aged man had a trace of guilt on his face, came to the front of everyone, and confessed to Liang Ming.

"Lord Liang! This river demon chaos incident is all ill-conceived by Liu, and Liu is willing to bear the losses of everyone involved in this turmoil! ”

Liu Yingying, who was behind Liu Jingzhong, also stepped forward immediately.

"My lord! The people's daughter is also at fault, the organizer of this event is me, and please don't blame my father for all the blame, and there are some coincidences in the river demon chaos, and my father is also for the consideration of the people of Hua'an County to hold the river lantern festival, and I hope that the adults will be light! ”

Seeing that his daughter suddenly stood up, Liu Jingzhong immediately shouted.

"Yingying! Go down, there's no place for you to speak! ”

"But, Daddy!" Liu Yingying wanted to say something, but she was immediately pulled down by the Liu family on the side.

"In this incident, no matter what punishment Lord Liang has, Liu has no objection!" Liu Jingzhong also did not defend himself, with a look of blame and self-blame, and bowed his head and knelt.

Seeing Liu Jingzhong's attitude, most of the anger in Liang Ming's heart had disappeared.

"This official has repeatedly warned before that all activities in the river during this time must be vigilant! How can you be so careless when you are in an unknown danger! ”

"If it weren't for the fact that your Liu family has made a lot of contributions to Hua'an County in the past few years, you would have been imprisoned by now!"

In the end, Liu Jingzhong's tone was no longer aggressive, and there was a hint of intention to let Liu Jingzhong go in his tone.

Liu Jingzhong looked up in surprise: "My lord, this is forgiving me?" ”

Liang Ming nodded: "You get up!" Something has happened, your daughter is right, this matter is also a coincidence, and the official is also derelict in his duties! But since you have spoken beforehand, you must do a good job of the aftermath of the dead! Make up for it! ”

I thought that I would be imprisoned no matter what I said this time, but I didn't expect the county order to be so magnanimous for a while, Liu Jingzhong immediately kowtowed and thanked him again and again: "Thank you, sir!" Rest assured, I will personally supervise all the follow-up things, and I will never slack off! ”

Seeing that her father was not punished, Liu Yingying on the side was also relieved.

"It's not me who you should be thanking for, which Ye Fangshi should be thanking for, if he hadn't stepped forward and killed the monster! It's going to get even worse! ”
