Chapter 2: Chaos Emerges

Taking a deep breath, Li Ye spit out one word: "Yes!" ”

Suddenly.

A mysterious sacrificial text was transmitted from the Demon Dao Fruit to Li Ye's heart.

Exactly the same as in the game.

To raise demons, you need a sacrifice of demon rituals, as well as some special sacrifices.

"A bowl of three divine water, two or two chickens crying blood, three high sandalwood, sacrifice at night, you can complete the demon ceremony, enchant Zhiqiang, and become the demon Zhu Bajie."

Li Ye groaned.

Looking at Zhiqiang, who was still asleep, Li Ye added two buckets of pig food, locked the door of the pigsty, got up and hurriedly went to prepare sacrificial supplies.

Passing by the pig yard.

It's still early.

Huang An and several old swineherds are training the newly recruited young swineherds.

The pig raising experience only mentions a few words, and it is more to instill the idea of "loyalty to the Su family".

"Life is the slave of the Su family, death is the soul of the Su family, life and death are not betrayed."

"I am a brick of the Su family, and I need to move it wherever I need it."

"I am a nail in the Su family, where I need it."

Huang An raised his fist and shouted.

In the yard, a group of little swineherds responded loudly, and the atmosphere was warm.

Li Ye was satisfied and bowed slightly.

As the head of the swineherd of the Jiazi Courtyard of the Su Family, Li Ye has always been a master of both thought and business.

I never slackened.

Always be on high alert for spies and enemy spies.

Because although the Su family is strong, it is not without enemies.

Li Ye, Huang An, and these swineherds under his command are just mortals with ordinary blood, and they don't have the bloodline of demon slayers.

In this dangerous world where life is like a mustard, the body is like duckweed.

The only thing that can be relied on is the big tree of the Su family.

Just as he hated going to work in the company in his previous life, but hoped that the company would not go bankrupt, Li Ye naturally hoped that the Su family would become stronger and stronger.

Don't be destroyed by the enemy.

"Boom Boom ....."

The bell rang and it was time for lunch.

The newly recruited little swineherds cheered and rushed to the canteen, and Huang An and several old swineherds also walked briskly and smiled.

Although everyone sold themselves into slavery and became swineherds, it is also an iron rice bowl that many people can't envy.

worked as a slave in the Su family, including food and housing, and paid monthly money.

This is more and more valuable in Taiping Town after the catastrophe.

Li Ye didn't go to the cafeteria, and after changing into a coarse linen shirt, he quietly walked out of the Su Mansion through the back door.

It was June.

It wasn't very hot.

The sun is fading, the blood moon is approaching, and when you look up, the sun looks small and distant in the clear blue sky, and the light is not so dazzling.

Li Ye raised his head and looked at the sun for a long time before his eyes felt slightly sore.

The sun's rays are weak again.

"Maybe one day, the sun will disappear completely, and then, when a long darkness will cover the whole land, will there be a way for this world to live?"

Li Ye didn't know.

The most important thing now is to enchant Zhiqiang.

Raise it as a demon pig Bajie.

Zhu Bajie also has a name called Zhu Gangguana.

That's not a good thing.

On the contrary, he is a very fierce guy.

After discerning the direction, Li Ye walked to Dongjie to buy the things needed for the demon sacrifice.

Under the governance of the Su family, Taiping Town has been expanded several times, with continuous houses and buildings, and a permanent population of more than 100,000 people.

On the streets extending in all directions, the market is bustling and populated.

It looks like a peaceful picture of prosperity.

However.

The people who came and went were multifaceted and emaciated.

The number of homeless people and beggars on street corners and alleys increased markedly, in droves.

Some old men in ragged clothes lay in the holes of the bridge full of garbage, I don't know how long they died, flies and maggots wriggling, and the smell of corpses was pungent.

Several officials were carrying the corpses, scolding and swearing.

There was a long queue at the door of the grain store, but the boss hung up a sign that read "Sold Out Today", pushing and scolding.

The foyer of the teahouse restaurant is wide open, obviously the meal time, but there are few diners, on the menu hanging at the door, a plate of cucumbers costs one tael of silver, and a bowl of rice is three taels of silver.

Prices have risen sharply, and food is in short supply.

In Taiping Town, chaos is emerging.

Li Ye watched coldly, the world was chaotic, and he was powerless to change anything.

"Liu Ji Xiang Paper Shop"

When Li Ye came, he was surprised to find that this place was actually full of people and business was booming.

Boss Liu, who was wearing a blue horse coat, was selling paper figures and paper horses to a few customers.

Seeing that another order was sold, Boss Liu said mourning in his mouth, and sent the guests away with a sad face, but when he turned around, he was already smiling with joy, holding the abacus and crackling, and counting how many silver taels he made today, but suddenly glanced at a person sitting on the chair in the corner, and couldn't help but smile.

"Chief Li? ......”

"Yo Yo Yo, your guest is coming to the door, look at my eyes, I really should fight, I should fight!"

Boss Liu nodded and greeted him, slapped his face with his palm, a look of apology, but his eyes looked at Li Ye with light like a fat sheep.

A few months ago, Lao Wang's funeral paper goods Li Ye purchased it from him, and there were a lot of paper people, paper horses, and paper daughters-in-law.

Even a paper pig was specially ordered.

He's made a lot of money.

Seeing Li Ye come to the door again, I couldn't help but secretly guess if someone had died in Li Ye's house.

Li Ye is one of the elders of the Su family's pig courtyard, he has money in his hands, he also bought a big house, and married a lot of Meiji, could it be that the Meiji in the family died?

Li Ye coughed lightly and took out a list.

"Five portions of each."

Boss Liu glanced at it, and wondered in his heart the few things Li Ye wanted, and said with an embarrassed face: "There is a shortage of everything now, these ......"

"Money is not an issue!"

Boss Liu suddenly said happily: "Wait a minute, the things you want are basically available in the small shop, but this chicken has blood, but you have to take it tomorrow." ”

Seeing Li Ye frowning, he hurriedly explained that the blood of the rooster is more special, and it needs to be killed at the moment when the rooster crows, so that it can be regarded as the real blood of the rooster.

"There may be some people out there who sell chicken blood, but they are all fools, and some are still hen blood." Boss Liu said, his face sincere.

Li Ye nodded and said, "Okay, I'll pick up the blood tomorrow, and you can prepare the other things first, and I'll take them today." ”

While the two were talking, several groups of guests came to the door, either buying incense candles and paper money, or urging customized paper goods, etc., and when the guests dispersed, Li Ye asked curiously:

"Have there been a lot of deaths lately?"

Boss Liu looked outside the store for a moment, and then leaned in and whispered: "It's not just a lot, it's just a piece of death." ”

"Do you know Sanli Lane, the people there died last night, the death was weird, and there were maggots on their bodies, as if they had been dead for ten days and half a month, but they were still alive and well yesterday afternoon."

"There is also Zhao Xiucai's family, the family of eight is all gone, the body was sewn into a big windmill, and it was hung on the gate, scaring people to death, by the way, Zhao Xiucai still owes me ten taels of silver, he shouldn't die!"

"Widow He's house, that slut has rejected me many times, and she has let the dog bite me, and she also had an accident last night, but it's a pity that her good figure ....."

Boss Liu gushed endlessly, snapping his fingers, estimating that at least hundreds of people had a bad accident last night, but all of them were miserable and weird, which made people frightened.

Li Ye was shocked when he heard it.

In the past few days, he has been busy with the affairs of the pig yard and has never gone out, but he didn't expect so many things to happen outside.

Boss Liu said: "The people in the yamen said that they were revenge of the enemy and fought in the rivers and lakes, but everyone said that something from outside the city came in......"

Speaking of this, Boss Liu's face was also panicked, and he turned his head to ask about Li Ye's Su family.

Taiping Town is the territory of the Su family, Li Ye works in the Su family, and may know some inside stories that outsiders don't know.

However, Li Ye shook his head, indicating that he didn't know anything.

Even if you know him, he won't talk nonsense.

Boss Liu's nickname is Liu Dazui, and he can't hide his words.

After paying the money and carrying the demon sacrifice supplies prepared by Boss Liu, Li Ye hurried to Taoli Lane.

He wanted to go home and see.

The house he bought was in Taoli Lane.

In the house, there are eighteen beautiful girls, barely a home.

Taoli Lane and Sanli Lane are only separated by one street, and when Li Ye passed by, he found that Sanli Lane was already under martial law.

Many officials in black flying fish suits were busy.

But Li Ye knew that they were not ordinary officials.

Rather, it is the Flying Fish Guard who belongs to the Demon Slayer Division.

Once loyal to the Great Wei Dynasty, now that the dynasty is corrupt and the local territory is divided, the Demon Eradication Division has become a sharp blade under the Demon Eradication Su family.

Flying Fish Guard is a burly man, with sharp eyes, and a sword at his waist.

"My lord, I'm sure, it's probably something from outside the city that has sneaked in."

"Report it to the Su family!"

"All bodies were incinerated."

Feiyuwei discussed, his face solemn.

They carried out corpses from the houses in Sanli Lane, piled them on the pyre, and cremated them on the spot, the smoke billowing and the pungent smell choking the people around them.

The Flying Fish Guard remained motionless, holding the hilt of his sword, and his eyes were wary of the fire, until the corpses were completely burned to ashes, and they breathed a sigh of relief and walked away.

"Huh? Long Lee! ”

He Chao, the captain of the Flying Fish Guard, passed by the crowd, saw Li Ye, stopped and smiled and said hello.

"Captain He!"

Li Ye walked over.

He Chao likes to eat pig whips, Li Ye likes it, and when he takes a concubine, he gave more than 100 pig whips as a congratulatory gift, and the relationship between the two became close, and they have more contact in daily life.

"I heard that something happened, I'll go home and take a look!" Li Ye said, and asked about Sanli Lane again.

He Chaosheng was rough, dark-skinned, and as burly as a big man in the northwest, and hesitated for a moment when he heard this: "This matter is confidential, you still don't want to know." ”

His eyes were a little dark, his face was faintly blue, he was not in a very good state, and he was in a trance when he spoke.

Li Ye nodded in understanding, changed the topic and said that they would drink together another day, and told him to pay more attention to rest, so as not to get tired after marrying a beautiful concubine.

He Chao smiled and said that he would marry another one in a few days.

The two exchanged two words, and when He Chao was leaving, Li Ye reached out and took out a pig whip from his arms, and quickly stuffed it into He Chao's sleeve hand.

Affected by the blood moon, the black-haired pig is not close to the same as the pig of the earth, and castration requires not only eggs, but also whips.

Otherwise, it will regenerate, which is very weird.

He Chao pinched two handfuls and found that this whip was huge and was really of the highest grade, so he couldn't help but light up his eyes and glanced at Taoli Lane, which was only one street away from Sanli Lane.

It was where Li Ye's family residence was located.

He whispered, "Don't go home at night, and don't go out after dark." ”

After that, without waiting for Li Ye to ask carefully, he had already left in a hurry.

Li Ye looked at He Chao's back and touched the hint of this sentence.

I looked at the dead silence of Sanli Alley, which was empty, and there was no one.

The wind blew through the alleyway, and the windows cracked.

The lantern under the eaves swayed from side to side, and a white puppet was rolled around in the wind on the ground, and I don't know whose child's toy it was.

The face of the puppet doll was stained with blood, and her appearance was hideous and terrifying, looking at Li Ye with a smile instead of a smile, and let out a weird laugh:

"Little brother, come and play, ....."

Li Ye thought he was dazzled.

Rub your eyes and look again.

But I found that the street was empty, where there were any puppets, only a wild dog escaped from Sanli Alley, but was excitedly blocked in the corner by a few skinny homeless people, skinned, and soon turned into roast dog meat on the fire rack.

Look back to the side again.

The crowd around him had long since dispersed, and he was the only one standing outside Sanli Alley.

Dead silence, icy cold.

Eerie, suffocating.

The invisible yin qi was surging, and the four fields became dim, as if the sunlight had been swallowed up.

Li Ye suddenly shuddered and hurried away.

On the empty streets of Sanli Lane, there was no one, but the laughter of "duh" was faintly echoed, which was very weird and made people's scalp tingle.
