Donghai Country, Yingbei County.

This city is like a long leaf, and it is ten miles long.

There are 100,000 soldiers in the city, more than 1 million people, and there are three religions and nine streams.

At this moment, outside the South City Gate, three figures slowly approached.

One person has a hat on his head, wearing a simple robe, and seems to have a long sword in his hand, but instead of a sword at his waist, he walks forward with a pestle.

Next to her is a woman in her mid-forties and twenty-eights.

The middle-aged looks elegant, the woman is eccentric, lively and active, looking around.

As the three of them walked side by side, the man with the hat on his head looked around, his eyes falling on the mottled marks of the city wall.

The traces on the wall alternate between the old and the new, crisscrossing and arranging horizontally and vertically.

The first thing that caught Sima Yuan's eyes was the trace of the beast's claws, about a zhang long, a foot deep, almost a ravine.

The tea stall next to him shouted with a look in his eyes, "Herbal tea, drink herbal tea to quench your thirst." ”

Seeing this, Qin Xin slapped her red little face with her little hand, and glanced at Sima Yuan and Qin Mao with her residual eyes.

Qin Mao looked up at the sky, as if he was comprehending the avenue of heaven and earth.

Qin Xin deflated her cherry mouth and muttered, "Master, the apprentice is thirsty." ”

The man in the hat was Sima Yuan.

He retracted his gaze, glanced at Qin Xin, then looked at the tea stall, and said softly: "The master has no silver."

It seems that Sima Yuan travels and never brings silver.

The first time was to wander around Qinghongzhou, pick up a nephew, kill a few people and then return to the sect;

This is Sima Yuan's third time going out, and it seems that he will return to the sect.

I don't know what I'll turn next time.

And as Sima Yuan's words fell, the stall owner on the side had a stiff face, as if he was secretly scolding, there was no money for tea, and he was a fool.

Qin Xin's little face collapsed, and she immediately became listless, and she looked at Qin Mao from time to time.

Qin Mao looked at his daughter's eyes for help, and said helplessly: "Girl, since you have entered the teacher's door, you should uphold the teacher's order." ”

Unexpectedly, at this time, Sima Yuan smiled narrowly and said, "But although the master has no silver, he has gold ingots. ”

Immediately, as soon as he took it out of his hand, a low-level spirit stone was quietly shattered, and then he closed his palm and turned into a gold ingot.

The stall owner immediately smiled from ear to ear, and under Qin Xin's cheers, the three of them sat down at the tea stall.

Spending a gold ingot to drink a pot of coarse tea is really rich.

The people passing by looked at Sima Yuan like a fool.

Qin Xin didn't do anything more, she didn't think anything about it, but Qin Mao wanted to say it and stopped, as if he felt that Sima Yuan's approach seemed to be a little inappropriate.

It is not a good thing to be extravagant and wasteful, especially when I see that Sima Yuan is a heavy thing when he makes a move.

For example, the previous act of giving away the Zixiao Sword, and the behavior of buying coarse tea with spirit stones at this time, the extravagance is self-evident.

When he was hesitating in his heart, Sima Yuan secretly said: "Daoist friends are hesitating about the luxury of the poor Dao?"

Qin Mao nodded imperceptibly, expressing the hidden worries in his heart.

Sima Yuan looked at Qin Mao and said meaningfully: "The girl must be rich, so that she will not be easily deceived." ”

Qin Mao was shocked, his eyes showed that he was awake, and at the same time, a cold sweat seemed to break out.

Looking at the innocent appearance of his daughter, he seemed to be afraid.

My daughter is so stupid, it's very likely that she will be deceived by some rabbit cub.

At this time, the owner of the tea stall brought out three bowls of herbal tea and said with a smile: "The three of you are here to play in Yingbei City?" The three of them remember that before dark, they must enter the city, otherwise their lives will be in danger." ”

Qin Xin picked up the tea bowl, drank it lightly, and said with a smile: "Old man, could it be that there is something murderous in Yingbei City at night?"

The owner of the tea stall seemed to be nearly sixty years old, and shook his head with a kind face towards Qin Xin and said with a wry smile: "The girl doesn't know, since a few months ago, there have been soldiers and villagers missing outside the city of Yingbei, and there is no bloodstain, no crying, not even a trace of wind and grass, and people have disappeared inexplicably." ”

Qin Mao glanced at the huge paw prints on the city wall, frowned and asked

"But what did this beast do?"

The stall owner shook his head and said, "No, this paw print was made by a northern demon beast ten years ago, and it was killed by the city lord. ”

Sima Yuan and Qin Mao glanced at each other, the paw prints on the city wall were not the Great Demon of the Yuan Infant Realm, but if they could kill the Great Demon of the Yuan Infant Realm, the cultivation of the city lord must be the existence of the Yuan Infant Realm.

Sima Yuan turned his head and asked, "That city lord can kill such a big demon, and even a mere demon is not a problem, why don't you get rid of it?"

The stall owner glanced at the sky, and at this time, the sunset was in the sky, and the sky was getting late, and the hour was not early.

He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The city lord has personally gone out of the city to wait for a few nights, but the strange thing is that the demon has not appeared for several days. ”

Qin Xin blinked her small eyes, half asking, half encouraging and whispered: "Dad, master, do you want to subdue demons and eliminate demons?"

Sima Yuan smiled inexplicably, it seems that this kind of 'chivalrous righteousness, subduing demons and eliminating demons' has really not been done much in cultivation.

He touched his nose and smiled, "Okay, today, as a teacher, I will be invited by the obedient disciple to do a demon subjugation and demon eradication, how about it?"

Qin Xin immediately let out a sigh of joy, and directly took a sip of the tea bowl.

Qin Mao smiled and bowed his head, the two Yuan Infants joined forces to subdue demons and eliminate demons in the later stage, who else has this qualification besides the nine island masters in the north?

This time, there is no doubt that the demons will be captured and the horses will be successful.

Thinking of this, Qin Xin was overjoyed.

The stall owner on the side was surprised, looking at Sima Yuan and the three of them with disbelief and hesitation.

His old face seemed to hesitate, and he persuaded: "Three nobles, in the opinion of old age, it is better for the three of them to enter the city as soon as possible, and don't stay outside for too long." ”

Sima Yuan asked casually: "Old man, since it is so dangerous outside the city, why do you dare to stay outside?"

He looked around, and the people on the road were still there, looking hurried, obviously knowing that there was something strange outside the city.

The stall owner looked at him, and after laughing forcibly, he was silent for a while, looked at Sima Yuan and the others and said slowly: "I hope you will help me kill that demon." ”

Sima Yuan's eyes became more and more suspicious, and he said, "Does the old man have something unspeakable?"

Qin Mao on the side hesitated slightly, and the little girl Qin Xin was Lan Xinhui and chivalrous, and there seemed to be some pity in her eyes.

The old stall owner looked at the endless mountains and fields in the distance, and his eyes showed pain and resentment, "The old man's three sons have been missing for half a month."

Sima Yuan bowed his head slightly, no wonder this person took the initiative to provoke the topic of 'demons outside the city' before.

The old stall owner looked at Sima Yuan and the others, and there seemed to be hesitation and struggle on his face.

After a long time, he let out a long sigh, after all, he still couldn't resist the condemnation in his heart, and said softly: "However, if the three of you don't have the ability to subdue demons and eliminate demons, you should enter the city as soon as possible, after all, your own life is important." ”

At this time, Qin Xin's face was resolute, and she spoke, "Grandpa, don't worry, my father and my master are strong, and they will definitely be able to eradicate that demon and avenge your son." ”

Since the big words are thrown away, naturally they can't break their promises.

Sima Yuan and Qin Mao were headed, in fact, the so-called demon and evil genus were not taken into account by the two of them.

Especially Sima Yuan, now the spirit infant clone, the true sword of the god and the green dragon are guarding the body, not to mention the demons, even the half-step spirit god can be killed.

Half an hour later, a voice sounded again from the tower of the city gate: "Old man Miao, it's time to close the stall, it's too late." ”

The old miao, who was busy working in the tea stall, didn't raise his head and said, "Don't accept it, don't accept it tonight." ”

After the man on the city tower was silent for a while, when he spoke again, he seemed to be anxious, and said in a deep voice: "Old Miaotou, don't be strong, hurry back to the city." ”

After a pause, he said, "Lao Miao, people can't be resurrected after death, don't do stupid things." Hurry up and close the stall, our brothers won't go back tonight, keep vigil here, old sprouts, you come up, drink wine to warm up. ”

Then he glanced at Sima Yuan and the others, and said in a deep voice: "What are you three still doing outside the city, and if you don't enter the city, when will you stay?"

Sima Yuan glanced at the man on the upper floor of the city with some surprise.

I saw that his face was square, and he seemed to be smiling. Dressed in a body of half-worn scale armor, he holds it

The steel blade stands solemnly.

The so-called relationship is born from the heart, and you can know what his heart is by looking at the person's face.

Lao Miaotou's body stiffened when he heard this, put down the man in his hand, got up and looked at the person on the upper floor of the city, and after being silent for a while, he replied: "Xiao Fang, you don't have to say much, tonight, I Lao Miao will see that demon die, you don't have to persuade anymore." ”

The man seemed to have an understanding, and after looking at Sima Yuan and the three of them from a distance, there seemed to be a solemn look on his face, and Yao shouted: "The three of you will return to the city immediately, and there must be no mistake." ”

Immediately, his figure disappeared under the tower.

Suddenly, he rushed out of the city gate and went straight to the tea stall.

It was the one who called the square.

Fang Zheng pedaled and stopped, looked at Sima Yuan and the three of them coldly, and shouted: "What kind of tea are you drinking, don't go back to the city soon." ”

Then he glanced at Lao Miaotou, hesitated for a moment, immediately turned over and dismounted, and said to Lao Miaotou: "Lao Miaotou, don't be strong, enter the city." ”

The wrinkles on Lao Miao's face were like tree roots, one after another, and after looking at Fang Zheng, "These three nobles can help me kill the demons in Yingbei City, and I want to watch them return safely." ”

Fang Zheng frowned, and turned his head to look at Sima Yuan and the others, "You want to help me kill demons in Yingbei City?"

Sima Yuan smiled lightly, "What, isn't it welcome?"

Fang Zheng waved his hand and said, "That's not it, it's just that there were several 'Demon Masters' from the Eastern Wilderness who were buried outside the city before, and Fang Mou was just worried that you would follow in their footsteps." ”

The Demon Hunter, similar to the Bounty Hunter, is a paid demon slayer and demon slayer.

Qin Xin seemed to be unconvinced, and raised her head slightly, "My master and my father can't, they are amazing, they can beat dozens of them like you." ”

As soon as these words came out, the three of them were a little embarrassed.

Fang Zheng was really embarrassed, but Sima Yuan and Qin Mao were a little helpless.

In the late stage of the two great primordial infants, they can only fight dozens of mortals?

If that's the case, then it's a fart fairy.

At this time, the crisp chirping of crickets gradually sounded outside the city.

More than ten miles outside Yingbei City, there are barren mountains and mountains, or dense forests and trees, or strange rocks, or cliffs and deep ravines.

Only a rugged mountain road winds due south, but the people who come and go are all groups of companies, and few exist alone.

At this time, Sima Yuan and Qin Mao suddenly frowned together, and Fang Zheng's face changed slightly, and he roared, "Enter the city quickly!"

Sima Yuan also frowned slightly, and said to Qin Mao: "Something is wrong, you take them to the city first, and I'll take a look." ”

Qin Mao bowed his head slightly, "It's okay."

Immediately, he carried Qin Xin and Lao Miaotou lightly, and in the shrunk of Fang Zheng's pupils, the three figures fell on the city wall, causing a burst of exclamations.

Sima Yuan looked at Fang Zheng, "Lord Duwei should also go back to the city."

Fang Zheng saw that Sima Yuan and the others did have a few brushes at this time, so he solemnly clenched his fists towards him.

Sima Yuan nodded slightly, and then he pulled up the somewhat panicked war horse and hurried towards the city gate.

As he returned to the city squarely, after the city gate closed suddenly, an invisible light quietly emerged from the dozens of city walls.

Then there were shouts and sonorous sounds of soldiers from time to time from the city tower.

It wasn't until the sky was completely darkened that a faint spiritual coercion came from the city wall.

To Sima Yuan's slight surprise, under the full force of this coercion, it seemed to be comparable to the existence of Yuan Ying.

It's like a defensive forbidden array.

It seems to have evolved from the mountain protection array of the monastic sect.

However, regardless of whether there is a forbidden law array or not, with Qin Mao, the late Yuan Infant, he will be safe and sound.

Sima Yuan retracted his gaze, but quietly frowned.

There was a glint in his eyes, and the Yingbei City Lord had never shown any trace of him.

It seems that he is defenseless against Sima Yuan and Qin Mao.

Sima Yuan squinted slightly, thinking of the evil words of the owner of the tea stall, and he already had a little understanding in his heart.

He muttered, "It's kind of interesting."

Immediately, his figure put on a hat, his simple robe flew up, and slowly disappeared into the night under the exclamation of the people in the city tower.
