Chapter 828: Demon Hunter
Xia Mang went out hunting with the clan uncle in the village for the first time, and he heard that the demon clan had recently invaded southern Xinjiang, and a large area of land south of the Tianjiang River had been occupied by the demon clan.
And in the village where Xia Mang is located, his entire family makes a living by hunting demon clans, and their so-called hunting is to hunt the big demons of the demon clan, so his family also has a name, which is "demon hunters".
Due to the invasion of the demon clan in southern Xinjiang, many clansmen in the Xia Mang family chose to leave the village and hunt the demon clan in various parts of the south, although they could not repel the demon clan head-on, but they would use various means to hunt the demon clan, which could be regarded as some compensation for the compatriots killed by the demon clan.
This time, Xia Mang had just experienced the inheritance ceremony of the clan, and he was already considered an official demon hunter, so with the consent of his father and grandfather, he was able to go out to hunt the demon clan with the most powerful clan uncle in the clan, as a reward for him to become an official demon hunter.
This hunt operation went very smoothly, Xia Mang killed the two demon generals with his own hands, it can be said that Xia Mang's strength is already very good, especially at his age, being able to have such strength is enough to show that he is already a real demon hunter.
However, what Xia Mang didn't expect was that on the way back to the village, they would actually encounter an attack, and the other party only had two guys wearing iron armor, so they subdued him and the dozen or so people who accompanied him, and even Xia Mang's very powerful clan uncle was not an opponent.
Seeing a young man dressed who didn't look like a Tang person, he walked up to them, lowered his head and looked at himself and his clansmen one by one.
Xia Mang couldn't help but be a little curious, and also looked at the young man who seemed to have arrested them with two tin man's masters.
What surprised Xia Mang was that the other party didn't look much older than him, and he also looked very young, especially the other party's face was always filled with a confident smile, that kind of smile was very contagious, and the fear in Xia Mang's heart was immediately dispelled.
It's just that Xia Mang is puzzled. The other party's dress is really strange, the other party's clothes are only up to the waist, the lower body is a pair of cloth pants that look stiff, and at the same time he wears a pair of leather boots under his feet, like riding boots, but they are different from riding boots.
The other party's entire outfit, it can be said that Xia Mang has almost never seen it, looks simpler than the clothes of those hunters in his own clan, and at the same time more capable.
The two sides looked at each other for a long time, and finally the man who had taken them spoke: "Who are you? It looks like a hunter, don't you know. Now that Jiangnan has been occupied by the demon clan, do you still dare to go out hunting?"
Xia Mang's clan uncle snorted coldly when he heard this, and he didn't seem to want to answer the other party's words, and the other clansmen also turned their heads away, and they didn't mean to answer the other party at all.
However, Xia Mang didn't feel the smell of the demon clan from the other party, and decided that the other party should not be a demon clan, and felt that the other party might have misunderstood, so he replied: "We are demon hunters, and we went out to hunt the demon clan and rescue some people who were enslaved by the demon clan." ”
Lucius hadn't thought of it. I actually caught a group of demon hunters, and said with some embarrassment: "You are actually demon hunters? I'm really sorry, it seems that I have caught the wrong person." ”
With that, Lucius ordered Three and Four to let them go. At the same time, he smiled and said to the demon hunters: "Hehe, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I thought you were soldiers of the demon clan, but I didn't expect you to be demon hunters?
"We learned a lot today. Hunted ......" After Xia Mang was released, he suddenly felt much more relaxed, and wanted to tell Lucius about the results of the day.
turned out to be stopped by his own uncle. But when he heard his clan uncle questioning the other party, "Who are you? What are you doing here? Won't you be a demon clan? Deliberately trying to let us go, deceive our trust, and then find our place to live and wipe out our people, right?"
Listening to his clan uncle's words, Xia Mang was suddenly shocked, and when he looked at Lu Xius again, he felt that the other party did seem to be a little suspicious, and at the same time admired his clan uncle's vigilance in his heart.
Lucius grinned and said, "Hehe, don't get me wrong, I'm not a demon clan, I'm from the north bank of the Tianjiang River." ”
When Lecius said this, the demon hunters became even more nervous, and several people immediately stepped forward to surround Lucius, and the demon hunter at the head held the weapon in his hand, stared at Lucius and said, "You are from the north of the river? If the river has been closed today, how can you cross the river? You are obviously a liar." ”
Seeing that the other party was nervous, Lucius hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Don't get excited, don't get excited, I'm really from Jiangbei, you see that I'm sent by the two saints." ”
As he spoke, Lucius took out a tiger talisman that the Holy Emperor had given him before leaving, and showed it to all the demon hunters present to see.
The demon hunter had actually never seen the tiger talisman at all, and naturally he didn't know whether it was true or false in Lucius's hand, but Xia Mang's clan uncle, who had been in the army of the Tang Dynasty, quickly recognized the tiger talisman.
His face changed suddenly, and when he looked at Lucius again, his eyes suddenly softened: "I didn't expect Your Excellency to be sent by the Second Sage, it's really offended, and I hope Your Excellency can have a lot of Haihan, I don't know what the purpose of Your Excellency's trip is?"
Lucius didn't expect that among the group of demon hunters present, someone would be able to recognize the tiger talisman in his hand.
With some doubts, he looked at the demon hunter and couldn't help asking, "How can you actually know this tiger talisman? It seems that you should be a not simple person? I don't know what you call it?"
The demon hunter clasped his fists and saluted Lucius and said: "Your Excellency, your name is 'Xia Weihu', you have been in the Tang Army in your early years, and you were the personal guard of the general in charge of the army at that time, so you have seen the tiger talisman, so you can see the tiger talisman in your hand, my lord." ”
"Oh, have you ever been in the Tang Dynasty's army? That's good, since you're in the army, why do you want to leave the Tang Dynasty's army? Isn't it good in the Tang Dynasty?"
Hearing this question, Xia Weihu lowered his head and was silent for a moment, and then raised his head for a long time and sighed: "Hey, the Tang Dynasty seems to be prosperous, but in fact it is just controlled by others, and the immortals and Buddhas are the ones who actually control the fate of everyone. ”
Lecius vaguely felt that Xia Weihu might have some kind of story, so he hurriedly asked: "Mr. Xia, it seems that you are a person with a story, I don't know if you can sue me?"
was called Mr. Xia, Xia Weihu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Your Excellency, you are polite, Weihu is just an ordinary hunter now, but he can't afford to be the word 'sir'." ”
Lucius smiled and said, "Hehe, that's okay, I don't call you sir, and you don't call me any adult, my name is Lucius, I hope we can become friends." ”
"Lucius?" Hearing Lucius's name, the demon hunters present were all surprised again, but Xia Weihu was well-informed, and quickly asked in a low voice, "Your Excellency's name, are you from the Western Regions?" It seems that your name does not look like a name from the East. ”
Lecius felt that he was very close to Xia Weihu, and felt that Xia Weihu was very much like those knights in the West, although they were not recognized by the Holy See, they still used their abilities to help those in need, and always brought back holy light to those who were suffering.
So Lu Xius didn't hide it from Xia Weihu, and said directly: "Yes, I am from the west, but not from the Western Regions, but from the Western Regions, and I am from the Western Continent." ”
"What?" Xia Weihu suddenly exclaimed when he heard this, "You, have you successfully crossed that sea of sand? This, how is this possible? Doesn't it mean that no one has been able to successfully cross the sea of sand?"
Lucius was surprised, he didn't expect that Xia Weihu, who seemed to be nothing more than a mountain hunter, actually knew even about the sand sea that separated the east and west, and actually knew that the sand sea was impassable, which couldn't help but make Lucius feel that the other party was really interesting.
Lucius smiled and said, "Don't be surprised, I didn't cross that sea of sand, I crossed the sea from the other side, and of course I experienced some terrible difficulties. ”
Xia Weihu was completely stunned when he heard this, and was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses: "You are really an extraordinary person, you can actually cross the abyss of the Nine Shadows, no wonder, no wonder you are a Westerner, you can be appreciated by the two saints, and even give you the tiger talisman of commanding the army." ”
Seeing the puzzled face on Lu Xiusius's face, Xia Weihu took the initiative to explain this time: "In fact, in my early years, I traveled all over the world, and I once dreamed of crossing that sea of sand, but in the end I failed, and I was saved by a general stationed at the border pass. ”
What Xia Weihu knew was actually the frontier general who saved him, that is, the general he followed later, who sued him.
When Lucius heard this, he was a little curious about the general: "Well, speaking of which, if I have the chance, I would like to meet the general." ”
Xia Weihu's expression suddenly darkened when he heard this: "I'm afraid this can't be done anymore, the general is already dead, and he was killed by those terrible creatures that rushed out of the sand sea, even I, a demon hunter who thought I was powerful, was not the opponent of those terrible creatures that rushed out of the sand sea." ”
Lucius was taken aback when he heard this, he instantly thought of the King of Hearts, and he knew very well that the King of Hearts was from the covered Sand Sea Empire.
According to what Xia Weihu said, I am afraid that he followed the general, and happened to encounter the birth of the people buried by the Sand Sea Empire led by the King of Hearts, but in order to cover up the facts, the King of Hearts killed all the soldiers stationed on the shore of the Sand Sea, but he didn't expect that there would be a fish that slipped through the net.
Just as Lucius wanted to continue to ask, Caroline, Modis and Qilier rushed out, and Caroline said even more eagerly: "Lucius is not good, we, we seem to be surrounded by the demon clan, and there are many demon warriors around." (To be continued......)
