There is no doubt that the bamboo basket is empty, and it is in vain.

The twelve demon slayers stood and sat on the rocks at the top of the mountain, and they all fell silent.

The crowd was depressed.

But fortunately, no one complained, and no one said anything accusatory.

It's useless to say anything at this time......

However.

Ma Tianjiao felt a great pressure in this wordless silent atmosphere.

His face was very ugly.

This is the second time it has suffered a failure.

Suffering two failures in a row in one day will make anyone feel unhappy.

Moreover, Ma Tianjiao felt that these two defeats had something to do with him.

Thinking of this, my heart suddenly felt guilty.

So, he swallowed.

apologized to the few demon slayers standing around, "I'm really sorry everyone...... It's all my fault! I can't be sure if there are still demons and monsters in this mountain, so you have worked in vain! ”

I said it earnestly.

When the rest of the people had finished listening, they looked at each other.

Although Ma Tianjiao took over the responsibility of the matter so much.

But no one else can really blame him.

lest you chill the heart of a demon slayer......

So they opened their mouths to comfort.

"Success or failure is a matter of course! We are all trying our best to keep the common people safe, slay demons and eliminate demons, and work hard! It's not right or wrong! ”

"Yes, Brother Ma doesn't have to take this matter to heart! In the future, I will find an opportunity to besiege and kill this demon and ghost. ”

Faced with comfort, Ma Tianjiao finally reluctantly found the bottom of the steps.

He fell silent and said no more.

At this time, all the demon slayers were silent again, looking at the scenery of the mountains and forests under the mountain that was about to be covered by the evening sunset.

It's been a long day, and now it's almost getting dark......

There is still a lot to be done.

It is necessary to finish what needs to be done before it gets completely dark.

Although the demons and ghosts were not caught, the layers of traps and soul power tripwires from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain could not stay on the mountain forever.

Those things can pose a danger to other creatures or ordinary civilians.

So it had to be dismantled quickly......

So the twelve people watched the sunset sullenly for a while, and then began to be silently busy again.

Each descends the mountain to dismantle the traps and soul ropes.

In this process, Ma Tianjiao, who was extremely depressed, was secretly thinking about himself while working.

"What went wrong? ……”

If the woodcutter was lying...... So why does he know so much about the appearance of the killer demon?

Listening to his description, it was as if he had seen it with his own eyes......

But, if he didn't lie.

Why can't you find a target in the mountains?

"When did the killer monster escape? ……”

With a series of questions, Ma Tianjiao walked to a trap and removed the trigger device very skillfully.

He walked to a soul power tripline and cut it down cleanly.

He was like this, working sullenly and struggling in his heart.

The twelve demon slayers silently did their own work, and no one mentioned anything about killing monsters and ghosts.

But.

Although they didn't say anything depressing on their mouths, they were all depressed to the extreme.

In this way, a good task of rounding up demons and evil spirits ended up unhappily.

Ma Tianjiao is estimated to be irritable and unable to sleep because of today's events in the next few nights.

About an hour passed.

It was completely dark.

And the twelve demon slayers had already finished everything here and returned to Yunzhou City separately.

They have many other tasks to do.

However.

When they left this place, a figure suddenly flashed on a rock in the middle of the mountain forest.

He wears a hat on his head and looks like a ranger.

It was Niu Yuanping, who had already left during the day!

At this moment, he stood silently on the top of this boulder, looking at the mountains and forests shrouded in night.

I saw the mountain wind howling below, and the pine waves undulating.

The forest finally fell silent.

The demon slayers left completely, but he Niu Yuanping came back.

He smiled lightly under the hat.

Then he turned around and sank into the depths of the cave.

Not bad.

Played the demon slayer twice in a row, and finally wore out a lot of their patience.

Niu Yuanping didn't believe that the demon monster could have any means, and persuaded the demon slayer to come and search the mountain again!

The wolf is coming and shouting too much, and no one will easily believe it.

As the saying goes, again and again, two and no more!

The demon slayer who has consumed a lot of patience by that demon is probably not going to believe anyone's words for the time being.

No longer believe that there is still a target they need to search for in this mountain forest.

Taking advantage of this, you can once again stay in this mountain cave for a few days with peace of mind.

Niu Yuanping got a lot of valuable information through today's incident!

He could be absolutely sure that something was indeed targeting and spying on him.

That demon will reveal his Niu Yuanping's hiding location to the demon slayer through some kind of change method! Deliberately attract arrests!

It's much easier to do this when you realize it.

Although he still can't be sure where that guy is, he can't be sure where the demon is watching him at this moment.

But now that it has found its rules of action, it has mastered its means and routines.

Then be passive again!

Niu Yuanping had already planned that he would keep changing his hiding place in the next few days.

But no matter how it changes, it will eventually return to this mountain forest. In this way, in this mountain forest cave mansion that had been hunted down by the demon slayers, he could stay in peace and stability for a while longer.

……

Sensing that Niu Yuanping returned to the cave.

The old child, hiding under the rocks and dirt, gradually collapses.

Its teeth were about to be crushed by itself.

"This guy is really cunning!!"

In the dirt space, the old boy gritted his teeth, almost vomiting blood with hatred.

The plan was completely disrupted.

Even if there is a rat evil to lock and monitor Niu Yuanping's traces, his mind is really difficult to understand.

is so repeated and unpredictable, it actually makes the old boy feel that he has become passive.

In the dirt space, the old boy forcibly suppressed his anger and hatred, allowing himself to calm down and think.

"After a few defeats, the demon slayer's spirit must have been almost wiped out! Patience will also disappear a lot! Things are not going to be good! ”

It forced itself not to be affected by anger, and analyzed it carefully.

"If you let the ordinary people who have changed from the yang rat report the case and reveal Niu Yuanping's location to the demon slayer again, it is estimated that it will be difficult to achieve the previous effect......

That's not a good thing!

I thought about it seriously.

The old boy gritted his teeth and whispered, "It seems! …… I have to let this kid live a few more days! ……”

More caution must be exercised.

When Niu Yuanping's location was not completely determined, he could no longer rashly let the yang rat go to the yamen to report.

"You can't rush too much into it, otherwise it will have the opposite effect! ……”

Just analyze it silently.

The old boy in the dirt space raised his head, his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the dirt and rocks, and looked at Niu Yuanping in the cave.

It decided to wait a few more days.

Wait until Niu Yuanping completely lets down his guard and relaxes his vigilance, and then make plans!

Old Tong sneered, "Boy!! I'll have a few more days of fun with you!! ……”
