Chapter 7: The Demon Beast [Gold Eater]

Half an hour later, Zhou Yang and Zhou Quan, who received the alarm, rushed to the outside of the mine where the accident occurred.

At this time, dozens of miners had gathered outside the mine, and these people seemed to be greatly frightened, their faces were full of horror, and they didn't even react much when they saw Zhou Yang and Zhou Quan two immortal cultivators coming over.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang couldn't help frowning.

Although they are mortal miners, these people are also from the Zhou clan, and they have grown up listening to the deeds of immortal cultivators and demon beasts since they were children, and the monks of the Zhou family will bring all kinds of demon beast corpses to these mortals every few years to give these mortals insight and courage, and the teachers and village and town managers in the mortal academy will often popularize the knowledge of all kinds of low-level demon beasts in the desert to them, how can they be scared like this by a mere demon beast now?

What's more, in the past few years stationed in Qingping Mountain, Zhou Yang has also received several calls to the mine to get rid of demons, although the miners were also frightened at that time, but it will definitely not be like today, everyone is so frightened that they even forgot to salute when he arrived.

At this time, he swept his gaze, but he didn't see the miner steward who called the police, and then his gaze became sharp.

"What's going on? What kind of monster attacked the mine, where are you in charge?"

Zhou Yang, who realized something, slightly mobilized his mana to release the momentum that belonged to the immortal cultivator, and asked about the situation in a cold voice.

Being pressed by the mana momentum emanating from the immortal cultivators on his body, the mortal miners present all sank in unison, and many of them fell to their knees directly under their feet.

However, this did have the effect that Zhou Yang wanted, allowing the mortal miners to quickly recover from the fear of being dominated by demon beasts and discover the existence of him, the "Immortal Master".

"Ah, it's the Immortal Master here!"

"Lord Immortal, help, there are demon beasts, demon beasts have killed people!"

"Save my child, Master Immortal, please save my child, he is still in the mine and has not come out!"

The miners woke up like a dream, regardless of whether they were overwhelmed by Zhou Yang's momentum before, and now they knelt on the ground and kowtowed violently to him for help.

In other words, Zhou Yang when he just came down the mountain, he might be a little unaccustomed to seeing dozens of kneeling in front of him at once, but now he is very calm, and he didn't even let these people get up, because he knew that for these mortals, kneeling and talking to immortal cultivators was reassuring.

He looked at these gossip miners, slightly mobilized some mana, and cast an auxiliary first-order spell "Bewildering Sound Technique", and said in his voice with a special charm power: "Don't panic, since I am here, I will definitely get rid of the demon beasts, now you answer me honestly, where are you in charge?" What does the murderous demon beast look like?"

The miners were just mortals, and even first-order spells were not something they could defend against.

With the help of the "Confusion Technique", Zhou Yang quickly got the news he wanted.

"Back to the words of the Immortal Master, the steward was found and eaten by the demon beast after sending out a cry for help, and we escaped after hearing the screams coming from inside, and no one has ever seen the appearance of the demon beast, and everyone who saw it died!"

After listening to the miners' descriptions, he couldn't help but look at Zhou Quan, the family elder who followed him.

The old man's family is old, and he knows what he means with a glance, and he can't help but smile slightly: "The old man just came to help, you are a monk stationed here, everything is based on your opinion." ”

Zhou Yang understood, the old man's meaning was already obvious, this was his experience, unless he couldn't solve this matter, otherwise the old man would definitely not take the initiative to intervene.

"The nephew understands, then ask the third grandfather to help escort these miners back, and the nephew will go to the mine to eliminate the demons. ”

He nodded, and when he gave his hand, he said his decision.

Unexpectedly, after Zhou Quan heard his words, a smile suddenly faded on his face, and he looked at him with an unhappy face, blew his beard and glared and shouted: "What, you think the old man is old and useless, do you think the old man will drag you down if he follows him?"

"Third grandfather, you misunderstood, the nephew didn't mean that, the nephew was just worried about ........."

"You're worried about a fart! Although the old man is old, but when it comes to fighting ability, ten of you kid is not the opponent of the old man, you should worry about yourself instead of worrying about the old man, if something happens to you, what face does the old man have to go back to the family to see the old patriarch? Do you want the old man and me to become the sinner of the whole family?"

Although the old man Zhou Quan is more than 100 years old, his temper is not less than at all, he understands Zhou Yang's kindness, but for Zhou Yang's arrangement, he is full of anger, and he is so angry that he pointed at Zhou Yang and scolded him on the spot.

Zhou Yang was scolded speechless, and could only honestly admit his mistake with a wry smile on his face: "The third grandfather is angry, and the nephew knows that he is wrong, then ask the third grandfather to protect the law for the nephew, and let's go to the mine together to eliminate the demon." ”

"That's pretty much it!"

The anger on the old man's face was slightly reduced, and he accepted his apology.

So the two of them each took out their magic weapons from their storage bags, and at the same time cast the second-order defensive spell "Golden Light Talisman Technique" to put a layer of protective golden light on themselves, and then they drilled into the entrance of the mine one after the other.

The refined iron veins here in Qingping Mountain have been mined for decades, and the tunnel passage has been expanded and strengthened over the years to accommodate two people entering and exiting at the same time.

Zhou Yang and Zhou Quan went straight down the mine road, and the two pairs of eyes that became golden after being blessed with the "Heavenly Eye Technique" kept strafing around, and the dark environment in the cave did not affect their eyesight at all.

They traveled very fast, and after a short while, they came to the original murder site, and found the clothes and blood stains left by the miners after their death in a mining field, and then searched for the blood stains on the ground and the demonic energy residue on the demon beast, and quickly found the demon beast that was gnawing on the miner's corpse in another mine.

It was a huge rat like a wolfdog, its hair was as cold and shining as a steel needle, and the skin under the hair faintly reflected the luster of metal, and when Zhou Yang and the two found it, it was lying on the stomach of a miner who was lying on the ground and gnawing on the corpse.

"Be careful, it's a second-order high-grade demon beast [Gold Eating Rat]!"

Old man Zhou Quan also has another identity, that is, the only second-order beast tamer in the Zhou family, as soon as he saw the figure of the demon beast, he recognized the origin of the demon beast and issued a warning to Zhou Yang.

While reminding Zhou Yang to be careful, he quickly explained the advantages and weaknesses of this demon beast: "[Gold Eating Rat] is named because it likes to devour all kinds of metals, and it is a second-order high-grade demon beast when it is an adult, and its main means of attack is the teeth and claws that can be bitten even by second-order magic weapons, and it will also shoot hair all over its body to injure the enemy at a critical moment, and the power of the hair is equivalent to a second-order lower-grade flying needle magic weapon, in addition, this beast is proficient in the art of retreat, and likes to attack the enemy from behind." ”

"Moreover, because of the devouring of various metals, the [Gold Eating Rat] has extremely strong fur and bone defense, and only a second-order high-grade magic weapon can hurt it, or it can also be burned with real fire, and its eyes are also weak. ”

And when the old man Zhou Quan was talking, after the demon beast [Gold Eater Rat] was alarmed by the two of them, he had already stopped eating, revealing a pair of scarlet beast pupils and looking at the two of them, his eyes full of cold killing intent.

Seeing this, the old man Zhou Quan also seemed to have forgotten what he had said above that was based on Zhou Yang's opinion, and directly ordered Zhou Yang in an unobstructive tone: "Listen to the old patriarch, he gave you the [Silver Gang Shield] magic weapon, and then you will control this magic weapon to protect yourself, the old man happens to have a second-order high-grade magic weapon [Mountain Shaking Hammer] in his hand, and this demon beast will be handed over to the old man to deal with." ”

Zhou Yang didn't hesitate, and immediately nodded after hearing the words: "Nephew understands, third grandfather, you have to be careful, if it really doesn't work, we can go back first, and then gather people to deal with this beast!"

After saying that, he sacrificed the [Silver Shield] magic weapon, and made it several times larger and rotated around him, resisting enemy attacks from any direction at any time.

Seeing Zhou Yang so obedient, the old man Zhou Quan was also relieved in his heart, he was afraid that Zhou Yang would be young and strong, and he would not be able to stand this arrangement, so he would have a headache.

At this time, he had no worries, and even with a wave of his hand, he also released a small blue and black shield magic weapon that rotated around him to protect it, and then reached out and patted the storage bag, and took out another golden gourd sledgehammer magic weapon and hit the demon beast [Gold Eating Rat].

Thundered.

After a loud roar, the entire mine shook violently.

Zhou Yang looked around, and the place where the [Gold Eating Rat] was located had been smashed out of a large pit with a diameter of a few feet by the golden gourd sledgehammer, but there was no trace of blood appearing.

"Be careful, it's coming at you!"

Just as Zhou Yang was staring at the deep pit with wide eyes, he suddenly remembered the shouting of the old man Zhou Quan next to him.

Then, before he could react, a black shadow pounced out of the cave wall next to him, and slammed into the [Silver Shield] magic weapon that sensed danger and automatically protected the master.

The magic weapon of [Silver Gang Shield] is worthy of being a high-quality magic weapon carefully refined by the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, although it cannot exert its maximum strength without the command of Zhou Yang, the master, but the collision of the second-order high-grade demon beast [Gold Eating Rat] was actually blocked by it.

However, this time it also exhausted the mana that Zhou Yang had injected into the magic weapon in advance, causing the magic weapon to fall directly to the ground after blocking a blow.

"Damn it!"

Zhou Yang cursed secretly in his heart, and when he came back to his senses, he hurriedly mobilized his divine sense to establish contact with the magic weapon, and re-injected mana to make the magic weapon fly up to protect himself.

And at this time, the [Gold Eater Rat] missed a blow, and the extremely cunning use of the Escape Technique disappeared from the sight of Zhou Yang and the others, so that the hammer that the old man Zhou Quan bombarded afterwards failed again.

I'm still too young!

The old man Zhou Quan, who saw this scene, shook his head secretly in his heart, but he didn't accuse Zhou Yang of anything.

Because when he was his own age, his reaction to the sudden attack of the demon beast was not as good as Zhou Yang's, at least Zhou Yang did not panic and scream, and made amends in time.

He waited until Zhou Yang regained his protection before reminding: "Xiao Jiu, pay attention, when it comes out again, the old man will cast the [Finger Ground into Steel] spell to ban its escape technique, and then you must cheer up to prevent it from jumping over the wall desperately!"

"Third grandfather, rest assured, the nephew and grandson who made the mistake just now will definitely not make it again!"

Zhou Yang nodded vigorously with a shy face, and he had already raised his spirit to be on guard.
