Early the next morning, Zhang Zhengyi opened his eyes.

Last night was the most soundly sleepy night he'd ever had.

As soon as I finished washing, a careful voice came from outside the house.

"Master Zhang, are you up?"

"Well, come in."

A man in a black suit came in and bowed respectfully to Zhang Zhengyi.

The man was carrying two bags, one shriveled and one bulging.

"Pawnshop worker?" Zhang Zhengyi looked at the black snake pattern on this person's clothes, and remembered that last night She Gong pulled himself to pull around, and finally let himself take the place of Xi Shuai and go to the pawnshop to collect rent.

Of course, Hu Hu also told himself that the purpose of Duke She to stay should not be as simple as collecting rent and lacking people.

The man nodded and smiled innocently, "Lord Zhang, my name is Ah Niu, and I am a hundred-year-old demon. ”

Zhang Zhengyi nodded slightly, and followed Ah Niu out without saying anything.

She Gong arranged it, and he still shouldn't resist too obviously at present.

On the way, he seemed to ask casually, "Ah Niu, Xishuai's position was changed without any notice, and you are not curious?" ”

Ah Niu scratched his head, and the pair of round eyes showed a puzzled look, "My lord, aren't the adults in Shefu often changing the work of our pawnshop?" Why do you ask? ”

Zhang Zhengyi smiled and hurriedly said, "I'm new, by the way, you said that you are a hundred years old demon, so Xishuai is a few hundred years?" ”

Ah Niu looked honest, and he didn't realize that Zhang Zhengyi had changed the topic, and replied honestly, "Lord Xishuai should be a two-hundred-year-old demon, with strong demonic power, magical powers beginning to take shape, and spiritual wisdom is also smarter than those of us who are new to cultivation. ”

It is not difficult to hear his envy in his words.

Zhang Zhengyi nodded, these monsters should be divided by age.

I just don't know, how old is She Gong's old yin?

He followed Ah Niu to the east of the city, and the people around him greeted Ah Niu eagerly.

"Ah Niu, do you have such a good relationship with the humans around you?"

Zhang Zhengyi was a little surprised, since last night, he could distinguish between the demonic aura and the normal human aura, and there were pure human beings all around.

But after thinking about it, he can also understand that a monster force hidden in this kind of county town of hundreds of thousands of people must be careful and kind.

Ah Niu smiled innocently, "Yes, I live in the east of the city, and I know the neighbors here very well, and occasionally help them out." ”

Zhang Zhengyi looked at Ah Niu and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

It seems that Ah Niu is a good monster who is honest and honest, no wonder She Fu only asked him to do some pawnshop rent collection work.

This made his opinion of yokai change a bit.

Just thinking about it, a group of people dressed in Langzhong attracted Zhang Zhengyi's attention.

In that group of lang, it seems that they all exude demonic energy?

"That's the shepherd's man." Ah Niu reminded.

Zhang Zhengyi was stunned, "Who is the shepherd?" ”

Ah Niu explained, "It's normal that you didn't know when you first came, Lord Zhang, the shepherd is an eight-hundred-year-old demon who is proficient in medical skills, and it is said that his natural powers are related to herbs. ”

"And among this group of demons?" Zhang Zhengyi's face was strange.

"It's the disciples of the shepherd, most of them are herbivorous demons, and they don't like to fight by nature, so they simply entered the shepherd's medical hall."

"Every six months, they go to various markets to conduct free clinics and provide free treatment to human beings."

"Yes, right?" Zhang Zhengyi was completely messy.

Didn't Bai Mo say that demons were rampant and raging in the world these days?

Didn't you say that the people were unkind and invaded the land?

Your fucking bunch of monsters are serving as free doctors for the common people?

He blinked and looked at Ah Niu.

Ah Niu was embarrassed to look at it, and scratched his head, "Master Zhang, why are you doing this expression?" ”

"Nothing... Let's go collect the rent. Zhang Zhengyi exhaled a turbid breath and resumed his smile.

Feeling, that's a good thing, too.

In this way, it will be less difficult for you to survive in this world.

The entire Renchu county is very large, and there are many tenants of the Black Snake pawnshop.

Zhang Zhengyi followed Ah Niu to many places, often after one family walked, he immediately rushed to the next one, and in a hurry, Zhang Zhengyi was in a trance thinking that he was really an ordinary tenant in the city.

The sun gradually recedes into the western mountains, and the moon quietly rises.

The two sat on the grass on the outskirts of the city and rested.

Zhang Zhengyi looked at the bag that was abundant behind Ah Niu, which was full of copper coins from tenants.

Then, he looked at Ah Niu's other bag.

"Ah Niu, what is in your other bag?"

After getting along this day, Zhang Zhengyi was also familiar with Ah Niu, but Ah Niu never let Zhang Zhengyi touch the bag.

Ah Niu looked at the moonlight in the sky, and smiled in his mouth, "Lord Zhang, this is our tool for collecting night rent." ”

"Night rental?!" On the one hand, Zhang Zhengyi was shocked that he still had to work, but on the other hand, he was shocked that there was still such a thing as night rental.

"Let's go, let's go to Zhang Dasheng's house." Ah Niu picked up two backpacks and walked forward.

Zhang Zhengyi frowned, Zhang Dasheng was a tenant they had been there in the morning, but this person relied on himself to be a hooligan, so he was very arrogant and didn't give money, and even smashed the food on Ah Niu.

Ah Niu didn't do much at the time, and after being silent for a while, he pulled Zhang Zhengyi and left.

He thought it would be a bad debt, but he didn't expect that Ah Niu would still go.

Zhang Dasheng was not far from here, and he walked for half an hour to arrive.

Ah Niu walked into the fence of his house and knocked politely on the door.

"Who?" Impatient voices came from within.

As soon as Zhang Dasheng opened the door, his brows furrowed.

"Brother Zhang, hello." Ah Niu greeted him honestly and put down the two bags.

"Good mom! You're such a piece of cowhide and rotten candy, and the big night doesn't make people live in peace! Zhang Dasheng scolded directly, as if he was a splash.

Zhang Zhengyi frowned, very dissatisfied with Zhang Dasheng's attitude, and wanted to pull Ah Niu away.

He felt that Ah Niu wanted to try again because he didn't finish his work and couldn't get over it.

But Ah Niu just fumbled in the bag that had never been opened, and then got up and turned around and waved his arms.

A cold light streaked through.

Zhang Dasheng clutched his throat and fell backwards in disbelief.

Blood poured out from between his fingers and splattered onto the side of the door, staining the old portrait of the door god red.

Zhang Zhengyi's eyes widened in disbelief.

"What are you doing?!" He retorted.

Ah Niu was stunned for a moment, still looking honest, "Collect night rent." ”

"Night rent?" Zhang Zhengyi gritted his teeth and suppressed his emotions.

"yes. Oh yes, She's bus generation, tonight's night rental has to be dug by you, when it is a skilled craft. ”

Ah Niu smiled innocently, and then handed him the sharp dagger in his hand and a jade box with a demonic aura.

Both of these were taken out of the mysterious bag by Ah Niu.

"Dig, where?" Zhang Zheng's words are a little incoherent.

"Dig out their hearts, this is the favorite food of the adults in the city." Ah Niu didn't know why, and scratched his head.

Zhang Zhengyi only felt a chill all over his body, "In the city, adults? ”

Ah Niu's face looked helpless, "Master Zhang, where did you come from?" Renchu County has always kept humans in captivity as blood food, otherwise how do you think those monsters around you would do so much for humans? ”

"The old shepherd's infirmary treats the human beings and ensures that they are not sick before they can eat; The school club opened by the cat demon teaches people to read, so that they can have spirit; In the martial arts hall, the tiger demon boils the muscles and bones of human beings to make their flesh delicious; The evil ghosts in the yin are haunting the sick and the old and weak, and they speed up the replacement of human beings in the county......"

Ah Niu said while snapping his fingers, not noticing that Zhang Zhengyi not far away was already completely white.

"This city is a breeding ground for monsters to raise humans?"

Zhang Zhengyi subconsciously raised his head, and his gaze seemed to fly from himself to the highest tower in the city.

Looking down from the tower, he could see that the monsters and demons dressed in human skins were gathering together, laughing, and tasting food made from people.

And countless innocent people are being killed by monsters with blue faces and fangs at this moment!

Renchu County?

No, it's a human and animal county!

"Lord Zhang, let's do it quickly, without this heart, Gong She won't be able to entertain guests tonight."

Ah Niu urged with a smile.

Zhang Zhengyi was silent, walked forward with a knife, and then stood next to Zhang Dasheng's corpse, with Ah Niu opposite him.

Zhang Zhengyi glanced at Zhang Dasheng, who was open-eyed, and then looked up at Ah Niu.

"What's wrong, Lord Zhang?"

Ah Niu is still honest.

But in Zhang Zhengyi's eyes, this face is as vicious as a hellish ghost!

He raised his hand and slashed towards the bull demon's throat.

The bull demon immediately retreated to dodge the blow.

Then he opened his bull's eye, and was about to unravel his mouth.

A sword light pierced his body.

The bull demon's eyes widened, and he tried to speak, but his mouth only hissed and foamed with blood, and then he fell to the ground with a bang.

A capable figure emerged from the shadows, and it turned out to be a female swordsman in a black military uniform.

She glanced at the bull demon with disgust, and said, "I have long felt that there is something strange in Renchu County." ”

"I didn't expect it to be a situation of covering the heavens and raising human beings. I'm going to report this to the Demon Suppression Prison as soon as possible. ”

Then she looked at Zhang Zhengyi, her eyes narrowed slightly, "Who are you?" ”

"He's a slug!"

Outside the door, a majestic voice came in, and then, a figure stepped into the room.

Zhang Zhengyi didn't react to this change a little, but after seeing the face of the visitor, he couldn't help but be shocked.

That's the guy who had been following Gong She last night.

"Five-hundred-year-old demon?" The female swordsman's face also changed, and she immediately clenched the long sword in her hand.
