More than forty miles away from Stone Town, the long convoy was like a giant python winding forward.

And Li Qingfeng and Niu Daochang in the convoy secretly avoided the convoy, and after they got together unconsciously, the two quickly exchanged the information they had collected.

"Li Daoyou, how did you check there?"

Li Qingfeng's delicate sword eyebrows furrowed slightly, and after a moment of silence, he spoke:

"It's weird, I've basically checked everyone in the convoy, even this county order and his concubine Hong Xue'er I have secretly observed it from a distance, but I haven't noticed anything abnormal, there doesn't seem to be a demon slave lurking in this convoy. Could it be that we guessed wrong, this county order just happened to need to go back to the hometown to worship the ancestors? Master Niu, you are a professional demon slayer, can you see anything abnormal?"

The shriveled and thin old man looked at the team of nearly 100 people, his eyebrows were also tightly furrowed, and after his eyelashes blinked a few times, he also responded helplessly:

"I have searched many ways in this convoy, but I have not noticed any traces of the existence of demons, but the timing of this county order to return to the hometown to worship the ancestors is ingenious, and I specially asked you to come to protect the convoy away from the town, so I have to guard against it. ”

"Yes, there's always a good deal to be careful. ”

"There is not necessarily a problem with this trip, since I have to go back to my hometown and I heard that there are monsters eating people, it is normal to ask a cultivator to accompany me. If I were this county order, I would definitely ask the two immortal masters to protect me.

And when I was in that stone town, I carefully inquired about the person of this county order, and the people's reputation is still very good, it is said that this lord is not only kind to the people, diligent and fair, but also often helps to settle some homeless people and beggars who can't live, and is also a good official for the benefit of the party. I hope you have all the best for your trip. ”

stepped forward and looked at Li Qingfeng and the demon slayer surnamed Niu who were muttering, and Master Tian, who happened to be walking by the way, couldn't help but interject.

It turned out that after the yamen messenger came to ask Li Qingfeng to escort him yesterday, this old man Tian decided to go forward with Li Qingfeng and the others after thinking about it for a long time.

This old man Tian thought to himself that his party was always going to return to his hometown, although the probability of not going with this county order to avoid the monster is greater, but in case of encountering the monster of the previous days, the team's trip is basically going to stop, and everyone in the township will be in the belly of the monster and then be neighbors

But if you go with this county order, you will encounter a monster, and if you have a few immortal masters on your side, you may not be able to fight that monster.

After thinking about it again and again, after discussing with several powerful warriors in his company, he joined this mighty procession early this morning and went all the way south out of the city gate.

......

"Thank you Li Daochang for agreeing to help and protect this trip, otherwise the demon outside the city has not been eliminated, and how to return to my hometown to worship the ancestors will make me sad. ”

After saying this, this man who looked extremely ordinary, but had a bit of majesty between his eyebrows, bowed his head slightly to Li Qingfeng again and thanked him.

Next to the largest bonfire in the dark night, not only was this county magistrate secretly looking at the young immortal master who was dressed in green clothes and shocked Stone City overnight, but Li Qingfeng was also quietly looking at the thirty county magistrates.

However, although the two of them secretly looked carefully, they were greeting each other and talking.

"I don't know where Daoist Li is practicing? Although I am not very old, my Taoist deeds are indeed extraordinary, and I am even more envious of others. ”

"Zhang County's order is falsely praised, Xiaodao is young and shallow, but he can't deserve Zhang's praise from County's order. As for the place where he practiced in the lower part of the world, it was far away from this place, but it didn't have much of a reputation here, so I guess Master Zhang had never heard of it, so it would be better not to say it. ”

Li Qingfeng waved his hand slightly and said humbly.

"The Dao Master is really too humble, if it weren't for the Dao Master's extraordinary skills, I don't know when this demon lurking in my Stone Town would be discovered. Although Zhang is not talented, but I still have some self-awareness, I feel that the few immortal masters enshrined in my stone town are much older than Li Daochang, but the Taoist must be far inferior to the Taoist.

I don't know if the chief is interested in settling down in my stone town to practice? If the Taoist leader is willing to stay in my stone town, then my position as the head of the stone town will definitely be empty. ”

Hearing this, Li Qingfeng's brows furrowed slightly.

Although this cultivator who is willing to settle down in an ordinary town to cultivate, his mana will inevitably not be much higher, how can a powerful cultivator bend his waist for the sake of a secular county? Therefore, among the several cultivators who are enshrined in this stone city, the strongest white-bearded ones are only at the peak of their qi cultivation, and the weakest ones are only the cultivation of the rebirth realm.

But who practitioner is not deaf and clear-sighted?

The two people with tightly furled eyebrows around a bonfire not far away obviously heard the words of this county order, if they accepted this county order, wouldn't it be a contradiction to get along with each other in the future? Although Li Qingfeng thought that he was far superior to those two, why should he set up two enemies for himself?

"Zhang County's order is not true, the cultivators of my generation have different methods, and their abilities will naturally be different, but they are more deaf and clear-sighted than others, and it is easier to detect the demonic body. In fact, the true fighting method may not be better than other cultivators. And my trip is to return home, so I'm sorry I can't agree to Zhang County's good intentions. ”

From Li Qingfeng's bland reaction after being touted, this county order seemed to have noticed that there was something inappropriate in what he had just said, so he got up and left after a few more polite words with Li Qingfeng.

And Li Qingfeng's answer to this Zhixian obviously made the two monks in the distance quite satisfied, so they all nodded at Li Qingfeng quite friendly, and Li Qingfeng also looked back and paid tribute.

After this county order got up and left, the Niu family and the two men, who were dressed in linen clothes and dressed as the caravan servants of Master Tian, sat next to Li Qingfeng as if they were hiding as if they were idle after they were busy helping everyone set up tents.

As soon as he sat down, the old man couldn't wait to ask.

"Well, that guy finally showed up from the carriage, and you could tell what was wrong with his breath during the conversation?"

"Judging from the breath of this county order, although it is a little chaotic as if it is suffering from some disease, the breath of the human body is undoubtedly that of our human race. Li Qingfeng didn't dare to slack off on business, and replied in a low voice.

"Oh, could it be that this guy is hiding too deep for you to look away?

Or is this guy not a demon slave disguise, but a demon master who made a demon slave? Or maybe this county commander has been subjected to some kind of demon magic such as delusion, and unconsciously works for this demon?"

"Probably not. It's not that I, Li Qingfeng, boast about myself, I have been deaf and clear since I was a child, and I am extremely sensitive to the technique of qi induction. It is an ordinary monk in the realm of enlightenment, and he is far behind me in qi induction technique. At such a close distance, he would never be able to hide it from me for a long time. ”

Looking at Niu Laodao, who was still silent, in order to strengthen the persuasiveness of what he said, Li Qingfeng continued after shaking his head slightly:

"If his way is unfathomable, it may be hidden so that I can't see anything. But it's impossible to disguise it so that I can't see it through and then let me look away, I can't sense the breath of witchcraft, and even see a demon clan as my human race. If he has this kind of cultivation to be able to disguise himself to such an extent, he must be a peerless demon, so why should he disguise it in front of us? He can swallow us casually. ”

After Li Qingfeng finished speaking, Old Man Niu, who was extremely recognized of Li Qingfeng's ability, couldn't help but nodded, obviously quite convinced of Li Qingfeng's ability.

On this trip, Li Qingfeng and Niu Lao Dao had already concluded that it would not be simple, and most of the strangeness was related to the demon master and demon slave. But today, everyone in the convoy did not have the slightest clue, so Li Qingfeng and Niu Laodao both had a look of confusion in their eyes, and their judgment of themselves seemed to be not so firm.

But then the old man couldn't help but shake his head after a slight groan, and said again:

"If there is no problem with this county order, then this time he returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors, is it really a coincidence?

But this timing is too coincidental, and according to my many years of experience in the world, what he just said to you is indeed quite a separation between you and those two Taoist friends. But if you're sure he's not a monster disguise, and there's no trace of demonic magic on his body, then it shouldn't be. And according to my observations in the past few years, this guy hiding behind this group of demon slaves is both cowardly and greedy and ferocious, and he will definitely not hold back when he encounters a 'fat' like you.

Hey, since there is no trace of left and right, we can only prepare to wait for the rabbit. And the cold and evil atmosphere at night is heavier and conducive to demons, so it is better for us to be more careful at night. ”

"Since there are no clues for a while, we should be more vigilant and be cautious on the road. If there is no problem all the way, then we will escort him back to Stone Town after he worships his ancestors, and we should learn about the local customs. But if there is a problem with this guy, then directly behead him. ”

The two of them, who didn't have any clue about the traces of demons, had to take one step at a time after the discussion was fruitless. After sighing, the old man Niu turned his head, looked at Niu Dali, who had been sitting silently next to him, and couldn't help but become angry.

"Stinky boy, eat slowly, this is the ration that the field staff distributed to our grandfather and grandfather, but now it is almost eaten up by one of you, and you don't know how to leave some for your grandfather and me." I really have no conscience, and I pulled you so big for nothing. ”

"Hey, hey, hey...... Grandpa, grandpa, don't be angry. It's not because I'm so hungry, I haven't eaten a few bites just now, and I'm almost finished eating without paying attention. And it's no wonder that this thing is almost finished, the steward of the old man Tian gave me such a little food, which is not enough for me to stuff my teeth. ”

"Stinky boy, you still said that so many things are almost gone in a blink of an eye, and the pigs are not eaten by you!"

Li Qingfeng looked at the rather small bag containing grain, and looked at this fight, a high-spirited 'big man' who was as strong as an ox but was only 16 years old and two meters tall, and then looked at the old man who was 70 years old and thin like an old monkey, and his height was less than 1.5 meters, and he couldn't help but smile slightly bitterly.

"No, Dali, my brother still has a lot of food here, my brother can't eat it, so I'll give it to you." ”

"Brother Li, you are really good, I will help you solve it if you can't finish eating. ”

happily looked at Niu Dali, who had received the food again, but he didn't notice that Li Qingfeng's smiling face at the moment had a touch of bitterness that could not be dissolved, and his eyes were even more stunned as he looked at the unknown distance.

'Niuniu, I think that when we were begging along the road, we had to stammer when we saw a person taking out the garbage in a restaurant, and we were afraid when we met a little boy who was a miscellaneous worker, but now we no longer have to pray or even fight for a little food, and even the county magistrate of a city needs to be so polite in front of the little beggar in the past. But without you by my side, I can't let you live like this, what's the point of all this? Niuniu, are you still being looked at, driven away, and disgusted by people anymore? Niu Niu You ...... Are you okay at the unknown end of this world?'

In this life and this life - if I become an immortal, I will cross you and return again, and if I become a ghost, I will accompany you to sink forever!
