Under Zhang Xiu's kind words and persuasion, in the end, the people in the courtyard still opened the door.

It was an old man who came out to greet him, and he looked at Zhang Xiu and Xia'er a few times with a trembling look, feeling that he didn't look like a monster, so he breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "You two are the heavenly masters of demon hunting?" ”

Zhang Xiuban raised his face, made a solemn and solemn appearance, and said: "This seat is the city god of Jinhua Mansion, hurry up and bring your family's good wine and food, I am tired all day, this seat is going to eat!" ”

The old man's wrinkled cheeks twitched twice: "......"

Lord Chenghuang? The Hungry Ghost is pretty much it!

The old man looked at Zhang Xiu's coarse cloth farmer's dress, and didn't believe this kind of nonsense at all, but Xia'er beside him was dressed in a fairy style and a noble appearance, he didn't dare to be slow, and said with a forced smile: "You two, please come in, don't dislike my family's simplicity." ”

Zhang Xiu snorted, looked at Bai Aya at the door, and asked, "Old man, who in your family has died?" ”

The old man sighed sadly: "Alas, it is my hard-working little son, yesterday he went to work in the field, and did not come back after dark, we went to look for him in the field, and only found his body, and half of his head was gnawed off." ”

As he spoke, the old man burst into tears and wiped his tears with his sleeve.

Zhang Xiu walked to the hall and saw the corpse lying on the straw mat covered with a white cloth, walked up and opened it, and sure enough, half of the head was gnawed off, and the brain marrow inside was also sucked dry, and the death was very miserable.

The old man was taken aback by Zhang Xiu's actions, and hurriedly said, "Distinguished guest, don't touch my son's corpse!" ”

Zhang Xiu looked at the jagged wounds on the corpse's head and said, "Sure enough, he was gnawed to death by monsters, Xia'er, can you find his hiding place?" ”

Xia Er shook her head: "I have to see that monster, or know his birth date, to figure out where he is hiding." ”

Zhang Xiu sighed slightly and said: "This is not easy to do, but it's a pity that Zhao Ji's big head is not there, otherwise let him go outside and lie on the ground, and the monster will definitely take the bait." ”

Xia'er couldn't help but laugh and said, "Yan Feng's head is not small, do you want to find him to try?" ”

Zhang Xiu pouted and shook his head: "Yan Feng is afraid that he can't do it, he has a big head and a small brain, and monsters don't necessarily like to eat." ”

The old man listened to the conversation between the two, and asked with some hesitation: "You two, are you really a demon hunter?" ”

Zhang Xiu smiled: "This can still be fake, I am a real city god!" ”

The old man's son died tragically, and at this time he was already a little sick and rushed to the doctor, so he knelt on the ground and said, "Lord Chenghuang, you must catch the monster to avenge my son!" ”

Zhang Xiu helped him up and said, "Don't worry, old man, I'll go hunt demons when I'm full!" ”

The old man nodded happily, hurried into the house, and beckoned his wife to cook.

After a while, he walked out with a few vegetable nests and a plate of scrambled eggs, put them on the table, and said with some embarrassment: "The family is poor, don't dislike the city god." ”

Zhang Xiu nodded, ate with Xia'er, burped after eating, and said, "I've already eaten the meal, it's time to catch the demon next." ”

The old man hurriedly asked: "Lord Chenghuang, do you need to prepare anything, black dog blood or chicken blood, I'll get it for you, I see that the Taoist chief from the village used to pass these things!" ”

Zhang Xiu waved his hand with confidence on his face: "You don't need to prepare anything, just a little demon, I can kill him with my bare hands!" ”

The old man smiled and nodded, and just as he was about to be, he was stunned in place: "......??" ”

Something seems wrong with that!

After a while, the old man led Zhang Xiu and the others to Li Hualong's house.

Li Hualong was the only survivor who had seen the monster's appearance, and Zhang Xiu came to him to draw a portrait of the monster.

This Li Hualong was born with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and was burly, but he was born a little timid, and after meeting that monster, he never dared to go out when he returned home.

Under Zhang Xiu's questioning, Li Hualong stammered and described the appearance of the monster.

Soon, a portrait of the head of the beast was drawn, the kobold man was full of fangs, and his eyes showed a fierce light, just looking at the portrait, he could feel the ferocity.

Li Hualong was amazed: "Like, it's really like!" ”

Zhang Xiu turned his face and asked with a puzzled expression, "Are you sure he looks like this?" ”

Li Hualong said firmly: "It's exactly the same, it's exactly the same!" ”

Zhang Xiu showed a smile and said: "You knocked out two teeth of this monster, he came to seek revenge on you, because of you, implicated innocent villagers, how do you feel in your heart?" ”

Li Hualong's face showed a strong look of shame, mixed with a little fear, and stammered: "I, I'm also very uncomfortable, but ...... But what can I do? ”

Zhang Xiu smiled: "I have a way to catch this monster, but I still need your cooperation in this matter." ”

Li Hualong hurriedly said: "As long as I can catch that monster, you can let me do anything!" ”

Zhang Xiu smiled and explained a few words to him, and after Li Hualong heard it, his face suddenly became strange.

Half an hour later, the stench filled the entire village, Old Man Li pinched his nose and rushed over from home, looked at the iron pot erected in Li Hualong's yard, and asked with a pout: "Li Hualong, what is cooking in your pot, why is it so stinky, cooking!" ”

Li Hualong smiled bitterly: "I was really guessed by your old man." ”

The old man was suddenly blindfolded: "Are you really cooking?!" ”

Li Hualong hummed helplessly and said, "That city god said that dogs can't change their eating, let me cook a pot of and lure that monster over." ”

The old man's cheeks twitched twice, feeling that he might have met a liar.

He's lived this age, and he's never heard of cooking and catching demons!

Turning his face to look around, the old man asked, "What about the two people?" ”

Li Hualong said: "It's already gone, before leaving, the city god said that as long as the monster appears, he will naturally appear." ”

The old man couldn't laugh or cry, and waved his hand: "Hurry up and put out the fire, we probably have met a liar." ”

Li Hualong was entangled for a while, and said, "Then I'll go and pour the first, and your old man will help me put out the fire first." ”

The old man nodded in response, and after Li Hualong took the iron pot away, he squatted down, pinched his nose and extinguished the fire.

After a while, the watered firewood slowly went out, and wisps of white smoke slowly rose from the charcoal-burned firewood.

Just as he was about to get up, suddenly, a dark shadow enveloped his thin body.

The old man was startled, turned his face, and realized that it was Li Hualong, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Why didn't you move when you walked, it scared me." ”

Li Hualong showed a weird smile on his face, and just as he was about to speak, Zhang Xiu walked in from outside the door with a smile.

Looking at Zhang Xiu who walked in from the door, Li Hualong was stunned for a moment and asked, "Master Chenghuang, why are you back?" ”

Zhang Xiu smiled: "I'm here to catch demons." ”

Li Hualong was excited, and he craned his neck and looked left and right: "The monster is here?" Where, why didn't I see it? ”

Zhang Xiu smiled and groaned: "Knowingly asking, isn't the monster you, Li Hualong!" ”
