Chapter Seventy-Two: Slaying Demons and Destroying Demons

"Fellow fathers and fellow villagers, please get up quickly, eliminate demons and defend the way, and protect the weak. It is the chivalrous way that my generation has honored. This is Lu Yang's responsibility, and he is listed as not to be thanked, and Lu Yang will not ask you for silver taels, but he is here tonight, after he has killed the monster. Lu Yang stretched out his hand to help up the many trembling white-haired old men in front of him, many of them were several times older than him, and he couldn't afford to accept this worship.

"Good man...... Our children have been saved...... many villagers were overjoyed, praising Lu Yang as a living immortal and a living bodhisattva sent by God to save their children from suffering. Lu Yang comforted them one by one. But he asked the old man Lu beside him: "The old man is old, so naturally he sees that demon a lot, do you know when and where that monster will show up to accept the sacrifice?"

"This demon, the old man has never seen his appearance, when it comes and goes, it is a burst of black gas, half cloud, half fog, hazy appearance, so I have never seen the appearance of a demon. However, in the middle of the night, he would go to the temple of the land, not far from the village, and we usually put five pairs of virgins and men dedicated to the king, and at night they would put on their makeup and lock them in the temple, and when the time came, the demon would come there to beg the virgins and men to devour. It was not until the sacrifice was exhausted that it turned into a black cloud and flew away. ”

"Okay, all of you, please bring back the boys and girls, and I will immediately go into the temple of the land and wait for the demon to come. Annoying everyone, as in the past, locked the temple door, so that the demon did not suspect him, and when the monster entered, Lu Yang was good to fight with him. ”

"The lives of our children are all saved by the little brother!" The parents of those villagers wept, thanked Lu Yang again, and each took back their children. Watching these children follow their parents away, Lu Yang couldn't help but feel a little relieved, but a little bitter. He has no father or mother, the vast world, alone, and every place he stays is his home. Seeing that these children are loved by their parents, I also faintly envy these children who are cared for and loved.

At that moment, Lu Yang, under the guidance of Lu Laozhang, came to this long-dilapidated land temple. Lujiazhuang is just a small village, but the temple here is also very simple, since this group of people worshiped the so-called 'king', the incense of the land temple has been much less, and today, it has become a comfortable place for dust rats. Now, it is used as a place to worship demons by this group of fearful villagers, which can be described as absurd.

"Little brother Lu Yang, the demons are fierce, don't be careful about safety!"

The villagers sealed the doors and windows with iron cables, shouting outside the temple, Lu Yang responded, and went with him, in his previous days in the northern region, he was accompanied by the wind and snow and the cold every day, and also fought with those cruel wolf soldiers, spending a lot of mental and physical strength all day long, and starvation was also a common thing. At this time, everyone had locked up the temple and dispersed, and there was nothing else to do in the temple, but there were three animals and fruits that the villagers used to honor the monster, and a table of wine and delicacies. Lu Yang was actually at Uncle Lu's house before, and he was dissatisfied with half of the meal, but at this time, he was hungry again.

"Don't waste this little bit of good wine, the demon won't have his life to eat tonight, I'll eat some of him first, and I'll be able to endure the long night, and I'm making plans. ”

At that moment, Lu Yang tore open the whole roast chicken on the plate, and enjoyed it himself, and he didn't need to make a chopstick for the thickly cut beef, and pulled out the bronze ancient sword, cut off a large piece of meat and chewed it casually in his hand, shouting happily. If you are well fed and have a lot of strength, it will be more convenient for you to deal with him when the demon comes.

......

At midnight, Lu Yang finished eating, and silently thought about the moves in the sword technique of breaking the army, this set of sword techniques is described in the book left by Mu Hantian There are a total of seven styles, with Lu Yang's current cultivation in the Qi Refining Realm, it is quite difficult to reluctantly release the first and second styles. However, Lu Yang relied on the huge amount of heaven and earth vitality accumulated by the Ziya Divine Stone, and at present, it was enough to exert some of the power of this army-breaking sword technique.

At this time, the four fields were secluded, the night sky was bright, and the light of the stars was falling from the roof made of thatch, and the inside of the dilapidated temple did not look so dark, Lu Yang was sitting cross-legged, concentrating on the breath in his body. However, in my ears, I suddenly heard outside the temple, and there was a strong wind, and the sound of whistling, like the screaming and shouting of evil beasts, made people's hearts restless, and it was inevitable that a sense of horror and horror rose from the bottom of my heart.

Above the roof, the light of the stars and the moon that penetrated into the cracks of the thatched grass was actually spread by a rich demonic aura like black ink, as if something had opened its clutches, enveloping the heavens and stars, and the whole temple could be heard falling from a needle, and the silence was very terrifying.

Between the thick black fog, there seemed to be something, the sound of the huge footsteps of 'rumbling' approached, and every time this footstep landed, it was extremely heavy, and the huge force stepped on the ground, shaking the entire temple more than once, and the incense burner beside Lu Yang couldn't withstand this violent shock like an earthquake, and actually knocked over on the ground. However, he was unmoved, and clenched the bronze ancient sword in his hand, condensing twelve points of spirit and momentum.

The huge thunderous footsteps had approached the temple gate, and suddenly stopped, and the next moment, the two wooden dilapidated temple doors actually flew straight up, towards Lu Yang in the temple, he had already prepared, stepped on the ground, his body was short, and he rushed out like electricity, jumped straight onto the main beam of the temple, and kept his sword firmly staring at the movement in the temple.

The two powerful wooden doors crashed into it, not hitting Lu Yang's body, but slamming into the statue of the old man of the land in the temple, and the statue of the land god more than two feet high was smashed upside down and planted on the altar, and fell into broken clods of earth all over the ground. And Lu Yang saw it, a huge figure with a height of ten feet squirmed, and walked in from the outside, Lu Yang could vaguely see that this monster was in a vicious form, even if he had seen so many ugly monsters and demons, but when he saw the face of this demon, he couldn't help but gasp.

This monster was born hideous and terrifying, with a thousand hands and a thousand eyes, and a vicious appearance. When flying, there is black fog in the sky, and when you are angry, you can turn over the river and the sea. What an ugly demon!

Its body is more than ten feet tall, and what is even more terrifying is that its whole body, there is no head, it has thousands of hands and thousands of eyes, and the fat body rises with clusters of black demonic energy, and in the black gas, there are dense white arms, and on each wriggling arm, there is also an evil pupil in the palm of the palm, Lu Yang can also be regarded as well-read, but no matter what, he doesn't know where this ugly monster came from.

The monster roared loudly, only to see that the arm rolling above his body was extended instantly, and there were dozens of terrifying white arms turned into flying claws, and he grabbed the future towards Lu Yang, Lu Yang secretly screamed that it was not good, and jumped off the beam quickly, relying on his small and flexible body, and quickly shuttled through the temple with the advantage of speed, but this monster was too weird, and the countless arms that were surging up and down around his body were all very spiritual perception, and the strength he possessed was also extremely great.

But I saw that the thick temple beam, by those arms directly pierced through, sawdust fell from the roof, the wreckage rained, smashed on the altar of the offering table in the temple, one after another smashed those things and everything, dust all over the sky, the whole temple continued to roar, broken stone and bricks, collapsed with a bang.

The temple was narrow, Lu Yang had nowhere to stay, took a deep breath, raised his sword and jumped up, and went up like a flower through the house, and jumped out, looking at the dilapidated land temple, it was destroyed by the monster, the monster was unyielding, and smashed through the stone wall with a strong demon body, and rushed straight towards Lu Yang!

Lu Yang didn't find the weakness of this monster for a while, so he had to dodge first in order to change. At that moment, his body turned, and he planned to move sideways to the left, but his body suddenly slammed, and he was hit by a sharp arrow from the rear on his back, the arrow was a crossbow arrow, silent, even he didn't notice it, and he couldn't use the Ziya shield defense in time, this arrow only hurt Lu Yang squatting down, gritting his steel teeth, and saw that the figure of the thousand-handed demon was getting closer and closer in his eyes!

"Ahh He has the supreme divine power of the Ziya Divine Stone in his body, and this mortal bow and crossbow has long been unable to hurt him, but this arrow has penetrated into the flesh quite deeply, fortunately, it has not hurt the viscera, and it is not a big problem for him, but Lu Yang turned around and saw that the villagers of Lujia Village around him had formed a circle and surrounded him, as if Lu Yang had become a trapped beast fighting in the encirclement.

Lu Yang saw it, in the light of the torches held by everyone in Lujiazhuang, there were many young faces that he had never seen before, these people were all armed with strong bows and crossbows, and at this time, they all raised their bows and aimed at Lu Yang, looking at them, Lu Yang suddenly felt so strange.

"My name is terrible, and my life comes from the darkness of my heart. All the human beings in this Lujiazhuang have always regarded me as the king, ensuring that they are smooth and peaceful. The voice of the monster reached Lu Yang's ears, but all this was deaf to Lu Yang. Lu Yang couldn't believe it, holding the blood-stained crossbow arrow, his voice trembling in severe pain, and he shouted loudly to the villagers in Lujiazhuang:

"Why! In order to protect you, to protect those boys and girls who are sacrificed as sacrifices, I have come here to fight with the demon at the cost of my life, but you have to be with this demon! You tricked me into coming here, so that I could come to the temple as a sacrifice for your children!!"

"But why don't you believe that I, Lu Yang, can save you from the hands of this monster again!"

He shouted hysterically, but the expressions on the faces of those people were full of indifference and alienation.
