Chapter 23: The Big Yellow Dog
Seeing Xiaocui walking out of the yard, Lin Yi was overjoyed, and his heart was a good opportunity.
No matter where this little emerald comes from, let's submit her first.
Thinking about it, Lin Yi jumped off the roof.
was about to throw a talisman to sneak attack, but Xiao Cui turned his head suddenly and found Lin Yi.
In the dark, a pair of turquoise eyes were like wolf eyes, very terrifying.
Do you say it's not a demon?
Xiaocui knew that Lin Yi was going to lower her, so she turned around and ran.
Lin Yi secretly sighed that it was a pity, if the sneak attack was successful just now, this monster would have to be seriously injured if he didn't die.
missed the opportunity, Lin Yi had to chase after him.
Xiao Cui ran very fast, and Lin Yi's legs and feet were not slow, and he followed closely.
In a moment, the two ran out of the alley one after the other.
Xiao Cui turned into a narrow road and immediately ran south, avoiding the cul-de-sac ahead, and seemed to be quite familiar with the terrain of the village.
Lin Yi secretly used his mana, condensed it on his legs, and suddenly there was wind under his feet, and he ran faster than a dog.
Sanzhang.
Two feet.
One zhang.
The distance was close, and Lin Yi decisively pinched the head of the thunder talisman and guided the talisman.
Then he threw the talisman and smashed it at Xiao Cui.
"Youkai, die!"
Click!
The Thunder Charm exploded in mid-air, slashing down a bolt of blue lightning with great power.
Bang!
Unfortunately, the lightning did not slash at Xiao Cui, but hit a wall in front of her.
At the moment of throwing the talisman, Xiao Cui's figure suddenly disappeared and disappeared like a cloud.
The wall was unlucky, and a black crack had been split.
What about people?
Lin Yi looked around, except for himself, there was no figure nearby.
That youkai actually disappeared out of thin air!
Wrong.
Lin Yi bent down and found a hole in the base of the wall with a big head.
This hole is too small for people to drill through, so cats can come and go freely.
Could it be that the fake Xiaocui will shrink his bones and run away from this hole?
Lin Yi found a ready-made wooden ladder nearby and climbed over the wall.
Inside the wall was a deserted courtyard, which had been uninhabited for a long time, and even the house had collapsed.
Lin Yi looked around, but found no trace of the monster.
The courtyard was full of broken bricks and rubble, and there was no place to hide.
There were no visible footprints around.
There is no traceability, and there is no traceability.
It's a pity.
Let the youkai run away.
Calming down, Lin Yi thought carefully, why did the monster turn into Xiao Cui's appearance and approach Xiao Cui Niang?
Could it be that Xiao Cui Niang is the next target of the monster?
Quite possibly.
As long as you stare at Xiao Cui Niang, you are not afraid that the monster will not show up.
Thinking about it, Lin Yi walked out of the deserted courtyard and prepared to go back.
When I passed by a nearby house, I suddenly heard a terrible cry coming from the courtyard.
Whew!
It's the screaming of dogs.
There was also a man's rough scolding, "Dog, dare to steal meat, Lao Tzu will beat you to death!"
Immediately, there was the beating of sticks and the barking of dogs.
Lin Yi took a closer look and saw that it was the village chief who beat the dog.
The village chief was shirtless, carrying a stick, and whipped angrily.
There was a big yellow dog lying on the ground, with its tail tucked behind its thighs, and it was screaming miserably.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yi asked.
As soon as the village chief turned around, he saw that it was Lin Yi and said with a smile: "It's the Taoist chief, you haven't slept yet?"
Lin Yi nodded, and did not mention the matter of catching demons just now.
"Dao Chief, you said that you are not angry, we prepared a pot of good meat for you, and just now let this dog steal it!"
As he spoke, the village chief slapped a stick on the back of the big yellow dog again, "Today, Lao Tzu must beat this beast to death!"
Smack!
The big yellow dog was beaten and covered with scars, lying on the ground and not daring to move, nor daring to run.
He looked at the village chief pleadingly.
Lin Yi thought it was something, and said with a smile: "Forget it, the beast knows something, just eat it, and feed it to the poor road." ”
The village chief scratched his head, "If the Taoist chief said so, then I will spare its life." ”
As he spoke, he kicked the big yellow dog in the buttocks, "Get out." ”
The big yellow dog wagged its tail, and as if it had been amnestied, it hurried back to its nest.
"I'm smiling, chief," the village chief said, "and rest early." ”
"Hmm. ”
After a few pleasantries, Lin Yi did not stop and paced back to the courtyard.
You can't rest.
He climbed onto the roof and continued to stare at Little Cui Niang.
One is to protect the safety of Xiao Cui Niang, and the other is to wait for the monster to show up.
But the monster seemed to know that Lin Yi was waiting for the rabbit and did not come back.
A night passes.
Lin Yi's eyes turned black and his head was dizzy.
Fortunately, he is a practitioner, and after a little meditation, he is in good spirits.
At noon, he got up and probed Xiaocui's house.
Xiao Cuiniang had already dressed and got out of bed, and after eating two steamed buns, she went out with her hands in her hands.
Lin Yi hurriedly followed.
Xiao Cui Niang walked around, wandering around the village without any purpose, and laughed silly when she saw people.
Someone was talking, and she leaned over to listen.
The villagers took pity on her and would talk to her or give her something to eat.
Xiao Cui Niang was not polite, and gobbled it up when she grabbed it.
Lin Yi followed behind for a long time, feeling that he was wasting time, so he prepared to go back.
As soon as I turned around, I saw a familiar shadow.
The village chief was in a hurry, trotting out of the house, as if there was something urgent.
"Village Chief," Lin Yi shouted, "Poor Dao has something to ask you." ”
He wanted to ask about the five missing people again, and maybe he could find a clue about the youkai.
The village chief turned around and saw Lin Yi, and was shocked, "Dao...... Dao Chief!"
"Dao Chief, I have urgent business to do, I'll look for you later. ”
The village chief seems to have a big urgency, and his brain is sweating in a hurry.
Could it be related to youkai?
"Did you find a monster?" Lin Yi said sternly, "If you have a clue, you must tell Poor Dao, you can't deal with monsters." ”
"No," the village chief shook his head repeatedly, "it's something else in the village, don't bother the chief." ”
After saying that, he left in a hurry, pouting his ass and running to the other end of Chenjia Village.
Lin Yi didn't take it to heart.
He cares about eliminating demons, and there is no need to worry about other things.
So, I decided to go to five houses alone to check again.
Maybe there's a clue missing.
Thinking about it, Lin Yi walked to the nearest Dazhu's house.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I listened to a group of people in the courtyard shouting five and six, which was very lively.
Several villagers stood outside the door, chatting and watching.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yi stepped forward to ask.
"Dao Chief!"
"Good way. ”
Seeing that it was Lin Yi, the villagers immediately respectfully respected, "Chief Hui, it's the Dazhu family who is catching sheep." ”
Lin Yi looked into the courtyard, and sure enough, Dazhu and a few strong men were running around the sheepfold, blocking a sheep.
The sheep was very clever, running and jumping, but never being able to catch it, and playing a few people around.
"What are you doing catching sheep in a good way?" Lin Yi asked.
The villager explained: "Dao Chief, there is nothing else good to entertain you in our village, so we raise pigs, cows, sheep and whatever, and Dazhu catches sheep to make mutton soup for you." ”
"Yes, Dao Chief, you have sent monsters to our village, we can't neglect you. ”
Lin Yi couldn't cry or laugh.
The matter of subduing demons and eliminating demons has not yet been settled, this group of villagers is enthusiastic, yesterday it was braised pork and steamed fish, today it is mutton soup, tomorrow it will not be Qiong Jelly and Jade Dew.
Well deserved!
