Chapter 117: The Aftermath of the War
This chaos comes and goes as fast as it comes.
It was probably the demon siege a few days ago, and many martial arts cultivators were trapped in the city too aggrieved, and when they saw the demons retreating, they beat the demons who fell into the water and climbed for their lives.
After three days, the demons outside the city have disappeared almost cleanly, and the city wall with new traces has become more profound and penetrating, and the earthy yellow earth before being soaked in black blood has become red and black at this moment.
Countless shoots have been soaked in this black blood, and due to its rich nutrition, they have emerged one after another, full of green.
There are people cleaning up the dirt at the entrances and exits of the city gates, and scattered people come in and out, gradually returning to their former grandeur.
Killing the last demon he saw in his eyes, Shen Xiu stopped the demon slaying knife in his hand and went home.
Now the demons near the outside of the city have retreated, leaving behind the demons who are all first- and second-class low-level demons, and there is no need for him to pursue.
The blood essence absorbed by those demons was not enough to stuff the golden cicada's teeth.
Now, with the results of this demon siege, I think I can exchange a lot of silver.
At dawn the next day, Shen Xiu rushed to the majestic Shanglin City Palace, and at this moment, the side courtyard where the city government received the bounty, and the Wu Xiu who came to receive it lined up in a long line.
Shen Xiu's arrival quickly attracted the frequent attention of many martial cultivators.
There is nothing else, but Shen Xiu's figure of slaying demons in the past few days is particularly outstanding, and the reputation of Cai Wu Xiu has been faintly spread in the upper forest.
These people are all martial cultivators who have climbed the city wall in the past few days, and they have a deep feeling for the scene where seeing is believing, and Shen Xiu's fierceness has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
"Brother Shen Xiu is here, insert it in front of me and insert it in front of me......"
A martial arts cultivator in front of him heard the whispers behind him, turned around and saw Shen Xiu's figure, his expression was stunned, and he immediately hugged his fists with admiration on his face.
What kind of tiger and wolf word is this?
Listening to what the man said, a layer of fine black lines appeared on Shen Xiu's head, and he hurriedly waved his hand to refuse.
The martial cultivators present at this time were even more in awe, their cultivation was so strong, their combat power was so powerful, and they were so honestly queuing up.
What a strong man he is physically and mentally.
waited until the sun was up, and finally it was Shen Xiu's turn.
"Old gentleman, how much silver can you exchange for the battle record on this iron plate?"
At this time, in front of Shen Xiu, there was an old man with a gray beard and still in good spirits when he was over half a hundred years old.
According to the whisper in Wu Xiu's mouth just now, Shen Xiu heard that this old gentleman used to be a martial artist who cultivated in the Four Realms, but later he somehow fell into cultivation and entered the city to eat royal meals.
"You really killed all of these?"
After checking the data recorded in the iron plate, the old gentleman looked at it again and again, and then looked up at Shen Xiu with wide eyes, and his face looked a little incredible.
He looked at the records in the iron card, and there were three sixth-class demon records alone, and the fifth-class demons couldn't be counted with two hands, and the fourth-class demons were even more different.
This kind of record is so impressive.
There are so many martial cultivators who came to receive the bounty, he has never seen such outrageous data, and they are all perverted.
The key is that this face is still so young.
But the record iron plate distributed by the city government cannot be faked, and the old gentleman's eyes are entangled.
"Hehe, old man, you don't need to check Brother Shen Xiu's data, we all saw it with our own eyes when we killed the sixth-rank demons that day, so we didn't have to fake it......"
"Yes, don't Shen Xiu's brother cultivation is like this, can't you still believe the record iron plate old gentleman distributed by the city government......
……
The voices of the foil rose and fell with each other, and the old gentleman had to accept the fact that the young man in front of him was a martial arts wizard.
Handing over a stack of silver tickets to Shen Xiu, the old gentleman looked at Shen Xiu's eyes and suddenly narrowed, and said with a smile, "Young man, are you married?" ”
Putting away the silver ticket, Shen Xiu hurriedly shook his head and refused, just after waiting in line for so long, as long as this old gentleman looks passable, he has almost asked all over again.
"Hey, my granddaughter is gentle and lovely, it's a pity......"
Shen Xiu's figure left, and the old gentleman's gaze stayed behind him, unable to turn around for a long time, which was a pity.
Find the lady's method, this young man has sword eyebrows and a long figure, but he must be the ideal type in his granddaughter's mouth, but it's a pity that Luohua is intentionally ruthless.
"Old sir, old sir!"
In a daze, a voice like a bell from the side interrupted his mood.
When I looked back, I found that it was a tall man with a round waist and a body like a giant bear
"How old is your granddaughter, old sir? Do you want to consider me? ”
There was only one big word in response, "Roll ......"
……
The bounty given by the city government was more than forty hundred taels of silver, and each hundred taels was more than four thousand taels of silver.
It seems like a lot, but compared to Shen Xiu's record, it's not a lot.
It's just that every time Shen Xiu kills the demon, he extracts the essence of blood and qi in it, and the dark bead in the demon's body is also taken for his own use, which can be regarded as better than nothing.
On the high tower of the fifteen-story building, he made rapid progress, and the daily minor cultivation of medicinal pills and soaking in medicinal baths, he knew what it meant to spend money like flowing water.
However, in the siege of the demons this time, he also gained the ability to step into the triple and nine-transformation golden cicada's satiety, and under his continuous feeding, it has increased to 69.6%.
The demons retreated, and Shanglin City returned to its former prosperous scene, as if the previous changes had no effect on it.
Someone, this is because this demonic siege is far less than the one a hundred years ago.
Since then, several major events have also been discovered in the city, and the top powerhouses who went to the demon mountain to investigate have discovered the healing cracks in the underworld, and the reason for the continuous demons of the demon mountain has been discovered.
The forbidden land also exists in name only, and since then there has been no restraint, a large number of remnant demons reside in the south of the demon mountain, and some people in the east mountain forest of Shanglin City feel that the blood is surging, and it is suspected that there are Blood Sea Sect monks who have stepped into the Zheng of the Eight Realms
These have little to do with Shen Xiu, and for the rest of the day, he will stay in the city and stabilize his cultivation.
At this moment, he also really experienced what it means to be trapped by fame.
Due to his outstanding performance in the demon siege before, his name and figure have entered the eyes of many people at the helm of Shanglin
So there was a constant knock on the door of his courtyard, and there was an endless stream of visitors who came one after another, and there was still one wave and the next.
The purpose is very varied, there are wooing, making friends, climbing relationships, mixing faces, and even more outrageous is that there are also heavy money seeking children, which can be described as a mixture.
Since then, Shen Xiu has posted the words "Do Not Disturb" to practice the Sutra of Murder in retreat, and this time it finally stopped.
A few days later, there was a knock on the door outside the house again, and when Shen Xiu opened the door, he found that it was Yun Chengzhi, the eldest son of the Yun family.
