Section 12, Qingzhen Demon Affair

The demon happened in Qingzhen, which is within a hundred miles of Puyang County.

The area around the Worry-Free Immortal Sect is basically still peaceful. Most demons know how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and they will not approach the Worry-Free Immortal Sect to do evil. Generally speaking, within a hundred miles, the demon matter will not be too serious.

"Even so, you should not be careless, you need to be careful. Every year, twenty percent of the disciples are killed or injured when they go out for trials, and many of them are gifted. No one can be sure whether the demon they encounter will be strong or weak. Qin Xuetong told again and again.

Except for the priest, the rest of the people agreed.

Qin Xuetong glanced at Sidao and didn't care anymore. All the way, Si Dao was like this, boring, and sleepy all day long.

"Before becoming a foundation building monk, the sect will not send us particularly terrifying demon missions. In general, villages and towns are not devastated. Therefore, we can ask the village chief and town mayor of the village and town for the specific details of the demon matter. Our Worry-Free Immortal Sect's Immortal Gate Token can be used as a credential. However, the first thing we have to do when we enter the realm of demons is to observe. Observe to determine safety, then take action. ”

Under Qin Xuetong's repeated instructions, the five of them arrived at Qingzhen, the place where the demon happened.

As soon as they stepped into Qingzhen, they saw more than a dozen people wearing white mourning clothes, which should be the family members of the deceased. The crowd fell to their knees and wept miserably.

When they saw the five He Xiaoxiao who were dressed in extraordinary clothes, everyone realized that the person who came was the immortal cultivator of the Worry-Free Immortal Sect, the immortal who helped them uphold justice, and they kowtowed and cried even more.

"Hello immortals~ The little old man's surname is Zhang, and he is the mayor of Qingzhen~"

An old man with white hair and beard first bowed heavily to the five people, and then declared his identity.

An old woman next to Mayor Zhang cried and mourned: "My son is bitter, and he was killed by a fox spirit. The immortals must avenge my son~"

"What nonsense, the Zhang family is a very good girl, how can she become a fox spirit?" the old mayor Zhang denied.

"You're such an old fool, your son has been killed, why are you still talking to her?"

"Hey......" Mayor Zhang sighed and said no more.

After saying this, the old woman cried even more fiercely. She fell to her knees and kowtowed so hard that her forehead was bleeding.

The others around him similarly knelt on the ground and pleaded.

He Xiaoxiao and Wei Ziqing are both dealing with demon affairs for the first time. When they saw the miserable and tragic state of more than a dozen people, they couldn't help but be a little moved.

"It doesn't have to be like that for the elderly. ”

Wei Ziqing couldn't bear the old woman to suffer so much, and wanted to step forward to help the old woman up, but was stopped by Qin Xuetong.

Qin Xuetong's face remained unchanged, as usual, and she was very calm.

The first thing Qin Xuetong did was not to respond to the crying crowd, but to probe the demonic energy around her.

Many demons are good at illusions. Therefore, Qin Xuetong must make sure that everything in front of her is not a demon magic.

After confirming that there was no demonic energy, Qin Xuetong slowly spoke. She cut straight to the point: "Uncle, please take us to the place where the demon happened." By the way, tell us about the demonic incident. ”

From beginning to end, Qin Xuetong was unusually flat and did not show much emotion.

The people who were originally kneeling on the ground and crying were also affected by Qin Xuetong's indifferent temperament, no longer wailing and crying, slowly stood up, and according to Qin Xuetong's instructions, told the beginning and end of the demon incident, and led the way to the location of the demon incident.

As mentioned above, the victim of the demon is the son of the mayor of Qingzhen and his wife. The mayor of Qingzhen and his wife lost their son at an early age and had a son in their later years, so they pinned their whole lives on their son. Their children have lived up to their sustenance, and in their early twenties, they are already talented.

However, all good things are ruined by demons. Now, their son could no longer say anything, but just lay down in the mourning hall. The body was withered and had been completely drained of its blood. Such a horrific death could not have been man-made.

The white light was mournful, the yellow paper was plain, and before they entered the room of the mourning hall, the crowd began to cry sadly again.

"Kid...... My poor child...... He was killed by a vixen. The old woman wailed.

She had already cried the tears in her eyes, but she couldn't resolve half of the grief in her heart. She had already suffered the loss of a child once, but she didn't expect God to ask her to suffer a second time. Her life has lost its meaning of existence. Before she could enter the mourning hall, she passed out directly due to excessive grief.

Wei Ziqing wanted to help the old woman, but was stopped by Qin Xuetong.

"Senior Sister Qin, don't you feel pity when you see so many people suffering?" Wei Ziqing frowned.

She didn't understand why Qin Xuetong could be so careless.

"We are immortal cultivators, and our mission is to destroy demons, not to appease mortals. In the future, you will need to face the demon mission alone, and you will encounter more compassionate things. When the time comes, if you are easily carried away by anger, how will you deal with the demons? Remember my sister's advice, we can't save everyone. Qin Xuetong replied calmly.

"But ......," Wei Ziqing still wanted to refute.

"Senior Sister Ziqing, let's listen to Senior Sister. The danger of evil is far greater than we can imagine. Every year, many genius disciples in the Immortal Sect fall. Acting rashly will not solve the problem, and our priority is to investigate and solve the evil thing. This is the greatest help we can give to the families of the victims. Ziglong admonished.

While explaining to Wei Ziqing, Qi Gelong swept his gaze to He Xiaoxiao.

At first, He Xiaoxiao frowned just like Wei Ziqing. However, after listening to Siegron's explanation, He Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement.

He Xiaoxiao grabbed Wei Ziqing: "Ziqing, they are right. If we cannot bring the dead back to life, we will not be able to completely comfort the hearts and minds of the families of the deceased. ”

"Okay, since Xiaoxiao, you think so too......" Wei Ziqing agreed a little frustratedly. But soon, she stood her eyes again, and swore to the families of the victims around her, and to the deceased's mother: "Don't worry, we will definitely destroy the demons." ”

How dare the mortals around him have any opinions. They knelt on the ground, thankful for Daze.

"Alright, let's get down to business. I have examined the body of the deceased, it was the Demon Eater. Also, who is the vixen you just spoke?" Qin Xuetong turned her head and asked Old Mayor Zhang.

She ...... She is my daughter-in-law, that is, Zhang Sheng's wife. Many people think she's a demon, but I don't think so. My son Zhang Sheng should not have been killed by her. Mayor Zhang replied truthfully.

"And where is she now?"

"Houshan, she lives alone in Houshan now!" Old Mayor Zhang hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I hope that all the immortals will investigate the whole story of the demon and not hurt the innocent." ”
