Chapter 34: The Butcher Sharpens His Knife at Night
Song Ci arrived at the demon refining platform early, and today's demon refining platform is far less lively than yesterday.
It can only be said that a day without a large-scale demon disaster is a day of refreshment.
The Huan bathroom is running as usual, and the miscellaneous servants are still talking about the afterglow of the demon disaster, or the person who mentioned Aunt Zhou yesterday, who seems to be named Zheng Laoqi, said: "Sun Tuzi on the corner of the street, killed two demons the night before, and exchanged for sixty taels of silver at the demon refining platform yesterday, and that one walks with the wind, tsk!" β
"Last night, I sharpened my knives, saying that I would kill another ten or eight, what happened? The monster didn't come last night, and he himself was stunned in the house by an unknown bastard......"
"Someone came into his house this morning and saw it, it was terrible, his arms and legs were cut off, and the person had already lost his breath, and the sixty taels of silver were all flying......
Zheng Laoqi spoke energetically, but others listened to it with horror, shock and fear.
But there are also people who actually gloat and say, "Really dead? Hey, then this person should too, it's not good to live a good life when he gets rich, but he is still blind, he was born poor, and he doesn't have that financial luck...... Didn't he ask for it? β
Zheng Laoqi hurriedly stood away from this person quietly, snorted, changed the topic, and said: "Alas, if you don't say it, it's still our people's lives." As for Aunt Zhou, she suffered such a big crime the night before, I thought she wouldn't be able to survive, but she was still alive after the end! β
"Not only is she alive, but she is also tossing around at home, saying that she wants to go out to find her daughter by herself!"
Zheng Laoqi sighed, and sighed: "Poor her, she was vomited blood again, and she was bitten by a mouse, and one leg was lame and couldn't move, how can she find her daughter?" Alas, it's just a long time to shout in vain......"
The handyman next to him said, "She is not lame, so what if she can go to find it properly?" The gold mountains and silver seas are all shredded paper, and the flower god who took away her daughter can't be a demon, she just went to find her daughter, can she still bring people back? β
The miscellaneous servants sighed one after another: "Exactly, it's just for nothing!" β
"Why bother?"
"Tut-tut......"
What's the pain, this is clearly a mother's heart, and she has put life and death aside.
She just wanted to find her child too much to forget about herself!
Song Ciwan listened silently beside her, she didn't participate in the topic of the miscellaneous servants, but this didn't mean that her heart was not touched.
The stewards came over to take a good name and assign tasks.
Song Ciwan was still assigned to the grass washing room, but there was no rat demon to be washed today, but there were two low-level cockroach demon beasts and a fat guinea demon.
It seems that although there was no rat plague last night, this cockroach monster still haunts the city.
But the overall number must have decreased a lot, and there was no big noise in the whole city.
This is a good thing, although Song Ciwan can wash fewer demons, and the bargaining items she gets will inevitably decrease, but her mood is relaxed and happy.
She thinks she is small, and she has never had any big ambitions for the world, but she does not quietly expect the city to suffer for her own selfishness.
Immortality and cultivation are just a kind of self-pursuit, not to cultivate all human nature.
People live in this world, whether they become immortals or not, there are always things that need to be insisted on, aren't they?
In the evening, Song quit work late.
Today, I got a total of [three taels and nine coins of anger], [weak cockroach monster death, two wisps], and a pair of dolphin demon fat intestines.
The harvest was mediocre, but her injuries were a little better, and the true qi in her body was about eight or nine years old.
This made Song Ciwan feel a lot more secure and his mood was much more relaxed.
She had the heart to go to the vegetable market again to see that the prices in the city had dropped slightly, so she bought some side dishes and went to Lao Chen's stall to buy a bowl of bean curd.
The impressive "hermit" Mo Laogui is still missing, and I don't know where he has gone in recent days.
There was no snow today, and Song Ciwan returned home in the thin cold wind.
made a guinea demon belly wrapped chicken, sold [two strong qi pills], sold it angrily, and obtained [forty years of longevity].
The death breath of the two wisps of cockroach demon beasts was exchanged for [one or two broken lapis lazurite].
Lapis Lazuli: A low-level magic weapon refining material, adding a large amount can enhance the toughness of the magic weapon.
As for one or two lapis lazuli, its role is better than nothing.
Song Ciwan doesn't dislike it, her collection has increased, and her knowledge has also increased, which is good.
At night, a thin cold wind blows in the world, and the air is both cold and fresh. Without the all-pervasive rat demon plague, the entire city of Suyang seemed to be immersed in a peaceful tranquility.
The drums sounded three times, the dripping seemed to be far and near, and the snoring of people in the neighborhood was heard in the silence.
Song Ciwan stopped cultivating at this time, her injuries were basically healed, and the three Blood Spirit Pills were not eaten in vain, and the effect was excellent.
She got up and changed into a blue-gray men's outfit, combed her hair in a new bun, and tried to pinch her face again.
The magic method of fetal transformation and transformation was unfolded, and this time Song Ciwan was more careful and meticulous.
After such a quarter of an hour, the original Song Ciwan "disappeared", and another completely unfamiliar young man who looked a little delicate and heroic appeared in the same place!
Song Ciwan opened his mouth, and his voice changed, it was a slightly hoarse male voice.
At this point, judging from the appearance alone, she has almost no flaws.
Of course, there are actually a lot of problems.
For example, although the face has changed, Song Ciwan's body at the moment is still a female body. Her skills are still shallow, and she can only do this step at present. If there is further progress in her cultivation in the future, she can completely transform into a male body with the wonder of changing her form from the fetus.
This is not an illusion, but a real change. Compared to ordinary transmogrification, it is not the same.
Song Ciwan put on a thickly stitched human skin mask on herself, covered with a black cloak, so that when the cloak turned, she fled and unfolded at night, and her whole person turned into a wisp of night breeze and went out under heavy disguise.
The night breeze passed through the streets and alleys, and during the period, he could occasionally meet the night patrolman of the city patrol department, and there were also demon captains wandering around the city, and Song Ciwan basically maintained an attitude of avoiding what he could avoid.
The sound of the watchman was the loudest, and it was far away in the dead of night, making the city seem not so quiet.
"It's cold and cold, beware of the windβ"
"Bang Bang!"
Song Ci came to Lai Mazi Lane in the evening, the night wind swept by, and there were cockroaches and monsters scattered in Lai Mazi Lane, and as soon as the wind moved, they ran out.
Song Ciwan killed it easily, but this time she didn't use the palm thunder again, but used the blazing technique.
Her control of the blazing technique is even more subtle, a slender flame is forced out, which can directly penetrate the brain of the cockroach demon beast, killing it with one blow, and leaving a relatively complete demon corpse, so that it will not be burned to ashes like before.
Song Ciwan put these demon corpses into the scales, and then came all the way to the door of a family with some kind of induction.
