Chapter 1: Demon Hunting

Next Chapter

In the inky blue sky, the bright moon was blocked by a layer of white mist, and the moonlight struggled to break through this barrier but was unable to do so. Beneath the fog was a dark and cold wood, with the occasional crow of crows in the cold nights, and the occasional whistling of the wind through the woods.

The bushes on the ground were swayed by a purple coat that swept by, and the "purple clothes" moved so fast that the branches and grass where she moved would soon stop shaking, like a breeze through the forest.

In front of the purple figure, there was a little girl who ran forward desperately like crazy, she wanted to get rid of the pursuit of the Nangong Demon in purple.

Nangong Demon chased after him, and suddenly jumped up, drew a talisman in the air, and the talisman seal formed and hit the girl's body, the girl's body trembled, she lost consciousness and fell down, showing her original form and turning into a chicken.

In the past, when the Nangong Demon came out at night, he could always catch a strong and powerful demon, but in recent days, there have been more and more monks hunting demons, and those places where demons often haunt are all occupied by them, and poor her can only pick up a few little demons in the back.

Nangong Demon lifted the Chicken Demon with one hand, the sword was unsheathed, and he jumped up, and the sword flew out of the woods.

There is only one bright place in the wilderness outside the city, and it looks like an ordinary shop, but it is only open at night, and a flag with the word "Collect Demons" is hung at the door, which looks gloomy at night in the wilderness.

Nangong Demon threw the chicken demon on the table in front of the store and moved his muscles. This little demon doesn't have much power, but it can run, and it can make her chase for so long.

Ten years ago, the Red Heaven Sect was founded, and the monks who had gone through sixty years of darkness finally saw the light of day.

And in the years when the monks were hiding from the world, the demon clan became more and more rampant, and those monks who couldn't join or didn't want to join the Red Heaven Sect thought of a way to make money and destroy demons.

Hunting demons - selling demons to make money, the business of collecting demons came into being, and there have been more and more people doing this business in the past two years.

The shops that collect demons are all open in the wilderness, and the demon pills of demons can be made into medicinal pills, and the internal organs can be used as medicine to cure incurable diseases, and the fur and bones can be used as decorations. It can be said that the value of each demon has been developed to the extreme, there is nothing they can't do, only what they can't imagine.

The shopkeeper, who was wearing Zubu Mai and had thin cheeks, turned the chicken demon over, picked it up again and looked at it, and after putting it down, he grabbed some broken silver from the cabinet and gave it to Nangong Demon.

"Money from selling demons. ”

Nangong Demon looked at the pitiful broken silver in his palm, and said, "Isn't the shopkeeper cheating me? This demon should be worth more than just this money." ”

The shopkeeper said: "You who often hunt demons should know that the number of monks who have come out to activities recently has suddenly increased, and the team of demon hunters is growing day by day, and the demons I receive in one night are several times that of the previous ones, and of course the price has been reduced." ”

Nangong Demon naturally knew the current situation, but she didn't expect the price of the demon to fall so quickly and so low, the reality was in front of her, and she could only admit it.

She put away the broken silver, and scolded in her heart the monks who robbed her of her business.

The shopkeeper said: "It's not easy for the girl to be young, I can remind you, it's definitely not a good way to make a living by catching demons to sell now, there is the coercion of the Red Heaven Sect, and there are monks and immortals competing for it, and those demons are so scared that they don't dare to come out." The number of people arrested is increasing, the number of people being arrested is decreasing, and it is even more difficult for you to be a girl. If you want me to say that you should pick up some door-to-door demon catching business, those big families have money, and this trip will make more money than if you broke your leg overnight. ”

Nangong Demon nodded thoughtfully: "You're right, but it's not easy to get an order." ”

"They don't look at the demon hunting rankings yet, the more monks in the front row, the more they can get the 'favor' of the big families!" The shopkeeper took out a post like a trick, "This is what I got by chance, three days later, the Red Heaven Sect will hold a demon hunting conference, young monks can participate, and the top ten can join the Red Heaven Sect." It's useless for me to hold this post, so I'll give it to you, girl. ”

Nangong Demon took the "registration sticker" of the Demon Hunting Conference.

"The girl went to the demon hunting conference, and it was best to win, even if she couldn't get into the top ten, with this name, it would be more convenient to continue to do this business in the future. ”

Nangong Demon smiled: "Thank you, shop." ”

-

"I'm back. As soon as Nangong Demon entered the door, he smelled the aroma of chicken soup.

Pei Ruoli ran out of the back room: "Demon sister, come and eat!"

Nangong Demon looked around: "What about Master?"

Pei Ruoli said: "Master, his old man went to Yunyou, and when he left, he also told me to take care of the demon sister!"

"Did you hear me right? Are you sure I want you to take care of me?"

Pei Ruoxi put her hands behind her back, looked at her and shook her head: "Demon sister, you have to be self-aware!"

Nangong Demon was looked at by her and felt empty: "Since the master has ordered, you just do it." "She can easily catch a demon, but she can't cook a dish. In cooking, embroidering, and tidying up the house, Pei Ruoxi is much more talented than her. She and her master's usual diet and daily life are all managed by Pei Ruoxi.

This fifteen-year-old girl has endured things that she shouldn't bear at this age, but Nangong Demon can't help it, she has been practicing fighting and killing since she was a child, and it is much more stable to hold a sword than a needle.

Nangong Demon untied the money bag: "This is the money from selling demons." ”

Pei Ruoxi opened the money bag and looked inside, muttering, "That's it!"

Nangong Demon Sheng Tang took a few sips: "The situation forces me to do nothing, but I can still afford to support you and Master." ”

Pei Ruoxi said: "In the past, there were demons all over the place, but there were few demon hunters, and any big demon could be sold at a high price." Now because of the Red Heaven Sect, there are more demon hunters, and there are more people selling demons, and the price of each demon is swishing down!"

After finishing speaking, Pei Ruoxi remembered one thing: "By the way, today I received a post asking us to exorcise demons." ”

Nangong Demon opened it and took a look: "Zhao Mansion, big family!"

Pei Ruoli said: "It must be because the ranking of the demon sister has gone up, and she will receive a post from a high-ranking family." ”

Nangong Demon is ranked seventeenth on the demon hunting list, not up or down, but she hides her true strength, Zhao Fu should have invited her to go because she was ranked high and the price was fair, after all, she offered a cheap price.

You must know that the price offered by the monks in the top 20 is a high price, and the average rich family can't afford it.

What Nangong Demon likes is the process of catching demons, and making money is secondary.

"Rest early after eating, and I'll go to Zhao's Mansion tomorrow. ”

-

On the second day, Nangong Demon and Pei Ruoli arrived at the door of Zhao's mansion.

Pei Ruoli took a mask and shook it in front of Nangong Demon: "Sister Demon Demon, I have prepared a mask this time, and I won't be suspicious if I put it on." ”

The two young and beautiful girls came out to do the work of catching demons, and every time they were suspected of catching demons, whether they had the ability to catch demons.

Nangong Demon glanced at it and said, "No need, I have a way to prove that we are true cultivators." ”

They showed the post.

The servants of the Zhao Mansion confirmed it repeatedly before they were willing to take them into the mansion: "I can't imagine that the two immortals are so young, if I hadn't seen the post written by the master himself, I wouldn't have believed it!"
