Forty years ago, the two races of humans and demons had not yet fought a big war, and the Three Realms were at peace. Although there was a secret realm in Li'er Country, the capital at that time was full of spiritual energy, and the secret realm was not uncommon. It is the secret realm of the country of Li'er, which is not in demand.

Lizhu sat down at the head of the country, and his gaze became distant: "Back then, as the princess of the Lin family, I came to the country of Li'er with my relatives and became the queen of the country of Li'er. ”

At that time, because the local secret realm had no advantages, the tourism industry had not yet developed, and there were very few monks who came here to visit. When Princess Lizhu first married in Li'er Country, nothing went wrong, and she and the old lord lived a period of respectful and loving life. Although a long time has passed since then, Princess Lizhu still has a sweet and nostalgic look on her face when she talks about it.

"However, starting in the third month after I married in the country of Li'er, young women began to be killed in the city." Princess Lizhu's gaze sank, "As you saw tonight, the dead were all drained of blood. The lord of the kingdom sent many additional city defenders to patrol day and night, but nothing was achieved. There are still women killed, the monster is extremely arrogant, and the lord of the country has also invited monks who can subdue demons to exorcise evil spirits, but those monks can't find any traces of monsters. ”

"Later......" she paused, "the monster entered the palace. ”

"Entered the palace?" Pu Zhuqi said: "Didn't you say that even the monks who exorcised evil spirits couldn't find any traces of the monsters? How did you know that this demon had entered the palace? ”

Princess Lizhu was silent for a moment before replying: "Because at that time, I always felt that someone was peeping at me in the dark. ”

At that time, the old lord was still a young man, as handsome as a golden statue on the coast, and he was busy with state affairs every day. At first, she thought it was her own delusion, until late one night, Princess Lizhu woke up from her dream, and saw that the window of the dormitory had been pushed open at some point, and in the crack of the window, a cloudy and yellow eye was staring at her intently.

Princess Lizhu's scalp was numb for a moment.

She summoned the guards and kept them by the door of the dormitory day and night, trying to catch the monster, but there was no trace of the monster. But the feeling of being watched in the dark has not changed, and Princess Lizhu is going crazy.

"Princess, mean, the monster is eyeing you?" Hairpin couldn't help but ask: "Then during this period, are there still others killed?" ”

Princess Lizhu shook her head: "No, so my husband and I both think that the next target of that monster is me." ”

In those days, strange things often happened in the royal palace of Li'er Country, when someone heard the sound of monsters crying at night, the teapot would automatically float in the air, blood would flow from the trees in the courtyard in the middle of the night, and there would be a maid who was tapped on the shoulder when she walked, but when she turned around, there was nothing...... In short, it's like a haunting, and it makes people panic.

"And then?" Mendong swallowed nervously, "How did you catch it?" ”

"The husband invited a famous master to exorcise evil spirits for me, the palace is full of demon charms, and there is also a demon extermination array in the palace, if the monster comes, it will inevitably fall into the formation, and the soul will be scattered." Off the bead road.

"The Demon Slaying Array is not something that everyone can pose." Rong Yu, who was holding Mimi, whispered: "I once heard Master say that only a rune array master who specializes in cultivating demon exorcism arrays can put it on the table. ”

"That's right," Pu Yu also nodded: "Besides, forty years ago, the Three Realms were still peaceful, and there was no war between humans and demons, and the Demon Extermination Array was a very cruel means of exorcising evil spirits. If it weren't for the most heinous monsters, the monks would not use them easily. ”

Tan Tianxin snorted: "I've killed so many people, how can it not be considered a great crime, if you want me to say, this demon extermination array should have been used a long time ago." It's a pity that our Chihuamen doesn't cultivate the rune array, otherwise put a few demon extermination arrays, and within three days, the demon will be obediently caught, and there is no way to live, how can you still do evil in the world? ”

"You'd better listen to what the princess has to say first." Nie Xinghong shook her fan: "And then?" Which runes work? ”

Princess Lizhu looked into the distance, as if recalling: "After those talismans, the strange things in the palace have indeed stopped. However, my husband was still worried about my safety, so he asked his personal guards to stay by my side every step of the way. One night, when I was returning to my dormitory, I heard someone shouting outside that the demon had been caught. ”

"Did you see the shark?" Mu Jiexiao asked.

Princess Lizhu did not speak.

She still remembers that night.

It is hot all year round, regardless of cold or heat, and it seems that every night is a summer night. It was a sunny night, with the moon hanging in the night and cicadas chirping in the trees. She heard the nervous shouts of the soldiers in the front hall, and she was worried, so she picked up her bow and arrow and ran into the front hall, and saw the monster imprisoned in the middle by the demon extermination array.

It was a silver shark.

He had a magnificent silver fishtail, but the upper half of his body was human, and his long blue hair fell to the ground. The scales on his body were mottled and incomplete, and there were stains of black blood in some places.

As if he heard someone coming, the merman looked at Princess Lizhu, and Princess Lizhu saw his face clearly. His face was also covered with growing silver scales, which looked a little hideous and terrifying, and his eyes were as blue as the western sea.

Seeing that it was Princess Lizhu, the demon shark trapped in the middle of the demon extermination array struggled violently and pounced viciously at her. The demon extermination array is arranged into a formation with thousands of charms, and the charms turn into golden light, and countless golden lights are intertwined, like a fishing net trapping the merman in it, the merman jumps up, and the body is burned out of a burst of green smoke when it hits the place of the rune array, and the pain makes him let out a hoarse and dull roar, and falls to the ground again.

Princess Lizhu was inexplicably a little stunned.

"Lizhu, don't come here!" The lord of the kingdom shouted at her with a sword in hand: "This merman wants to harm you, get away quickly!" ”

Princess Lizhu took a step back.

Afterward......

Later, she often thought that if she hadn't taken a step back that night, wouldn't the lord of the country have died, and would she not have had such a hard time all these years?

But the past can not be changed, the retreat of Princess Lizhu that day, as if it angered the demon shark, no one saw clearly how the demon shark escaped from the demon extermination array, and when he came back to his senses, the lord of the country had been thrown to the ground by the demon shark. The shark's claws passed through his chest, and the blood stained the lord's snow-white robes bright red.

Seeing that the lord of the country was in trouble, the palace guards rushed forward together and killed the injured demon shark, but the lord of the country could not be saved.

And then ......

Later, after the lord was buried, the courtiers invited the master to strangle the soul of the demon shark, and the demon shark disappeared from the world. It wasn't long before I found out I was pregnant. ”

A princess from a foreign country, her husband died as soon as she married here, she gave birth to a prince, to raise her young son, and it is not easy to support her young son to the throne safely in various open and secret battles. So, she did.

I thought that those nightmarish pasts were like the stones on the west coast, which would one day be corroded into sand by the sea, leaving no trace. I didn't expect that decades later, the nightmare would repeat itself.

"So, do you think that the tragedy near the Ear Country was committed by the same demon shark?" Gu Baiying asked.

Princess Lizhu woke up from her memories, looked at everyone, and said, "This is where I am strange. After the demon shark was killed, the courtiers specially invited the master who arranged the demon extermination array to come and strangle the soul of the demon shark. The master once said that the demon shark has been lost and can no longer exist in the world. In the past forty years, the country of Li'er has indeed been safe and sound. If it weren't for the fact that the woman killed this time was drained of her blood as she was forty years ago, I wouldn't have guessed so. ”

The crowd fell silent. Although the lifespan of the monster is indeed long, Princess Lizhu saw the demon shark being killed with her own eyes, and since the monk who subdued the demon has the ability to set up a demon extermination array, the ability to strangle the soul of a demon shark must be there, and there is no reason to let the demon shark escape. What's more, if the demon shark really wants to escape, he doesn't have to wait forty years to come back for revenge.

"Gu Tongxiu, what do you think?" Nie Xinghong politely asked Gu Baiying's opinion.

Before Gu Baiying could speak, the chatter on the other end couldn't wait to speak: "It's not interesting to guess and guess, it's better to catch the monster first, and then you will know if it's the same demon shark." ”

"It's easy to say," Pu Zhu asked: "It's not big or small, it's not small, that monster is cunning, I and Nie Tongxiu didn't find it today by following the demonic qi, let alone catching it." ”

Tan Tianxin smiled proudly: "It's just a demon hunt, and for our Chihuamen, it's just a trivial matter." After that, he also deliberately glanced at Gu Baiying.

Gu Baiying ignored him.

Tan Tianxin boasted again: "Before I went out, I grabbed a few magic weapons from the sect's treasury, and one of them was the 'Thousand Miles Demon Toad'. ”

"What is a Thousand Miles of Demon Toad?" Pu asked Grape.

"It's a treasure, a toad that specializes in eating demonic energy, if there is a monster passing by, even if it is a faint demonic energy, this demon toad can also follow the demonic qi to eat it, let's start tomorrow morning, just release this demon toad, and follow it all the way to find the monster's nest." Tan Tianxin said: "When I find him, I don't care if he is a merman or not, just let it fly away again!" ”

He spoke softly, and his words were quite proud, as if he had come to show off the big family of Lingbao Land.

Hairpin Star: "......" What a thousand miles of demon toad, it sounds like a traveling frog.

However, when the lord of the country left the ear heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "Really? In this way, wouldn't the monster have nowhere to escape? He stood up and bowed deeply to everyone: "Thank you to the people of the Lonely Ancestor Country. When the immortal elders capture the demon shark, Lone will send a generous gift to thank him. ”
