The First Heaven Chapter 14 The Terran City
As the sun sets, Xiaobai spends a day in the city, and at night the streets are brightly lit and the number of people shopping is still not decreasing.
"Guest officer, guest officer, do you want to stay in the hotel?" a shopkeeper ran out of the store and grabbed Xiaobai.
"I just came to the city, and I don't have a place to live yet, can you stay here?" Xiao Bai looked at the shopkeeper and asked.
"Of course you can, we are a place for people to stay, only one or two silver a day, and two meals, what do you think?"
"Okay! take me to see it!" Xiao Bai followed the shopkeeper into the store, and the shopkeeper took Xiao Bai to a room in the corner of the second floor. Putting the food in his hand on the table, Xiaobai couldn't wait to run out again. The city during the day is not the same as this night, and the lights everywhere in the city are bright and green at night, where has Xiaobai seen this kind of scene in the clan.
The little white walked around and around, the more sparsely populated the people became, and unconsciously walked to a high-gate compound, at the gate of which stood two officers and soldiers with spears, like a city gate. Xiaobai stepped forward to take a look.
"Go away, go away, don't you know that this is the City Lord's Mansion, and dare to trespass?" Xiao Bai was stopped by the two officers and soldiers as soon as he got closer. Xiaobai looked up and saw that there was a plaque hanging on the gate of this house, and the three big characters on the plaque were the three words of the city lord's mansion.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know the first time I went into town. Xiao Bai said to the two officers and soldiers. Suddenly, the gate of the City Lord's Mansion suddenly opened, and an old man dressed as a Taoist priest ran out of the City Lord's Mansion, only to see the old Taoist with his hair scattered, the clothes on his body as if they had been cut into strips of cloth by a sharp blade, and there were also scars on his face and forehead.
"The old man is not good at learning, please ask the city lord to invite another master!" the old man shouted and ran away quickly.
"This is already the first time this month, isn't there a master who can really subdue this ghost?" said an old man who walked out of the door, and looked at the old man who had fled from the desert.
"Old man, what's the matter?" Xiao Bai asked, looking at the old man.
"Bold!" The two officers and soldiers walked towards Xiaobai with spears in hand.
"It's all right, young man, it's late at night, go back and rest. The old man waved his hand, and the two officers and soldiers retreated.
"I heard that this city lord's mansion is haunted, why do you still live here, old man?" Xiao Bai looked at the old man and asked puzzled.
"This is my home, where can I live if I don't live here?" the old man looked at Xiao Bai and said helplessly.
"This is your home, then you are the city lord?" Xiaobai asked.
"Yes, I am the lord of this Rong City, young man, let's go quickly, this neighborhood has been unquiet recently. The city lord of Rongcheng waved his hand and wanted to turn around and go back.
"Old man, it just so happens that I have learned some spells, I can help you take a look. Xiaobai felt that this old man was not a bad person, so he wanted to help the old man.
"Young man, don't lose your life for the sake of merit. "The lord of Rongcheng thought that Xiao Bai knew that he was the lord of the city and wanted to ask for some gold and silver treasures from him, so he lied that he knew how to spell.
"I have never deceived anyone, I have been practicing with my parents in the mountains for 20 years, and this time I came out to practice. Xiaobai saw that the old man didn't believe him, so he explained to the old man.
"Have you really practiced spells?" the old man looked at Xiao Bai's expression, which didn't look like he was lying, but he still refused to believe Xiao Bai.
"Bang!", Xiao Bai casually swung a wind blade and hit the stone steps in front of the house, only to see a crack on the stone steps immediately appeared.
"It turned out that it was the immortal master coming, Zhang Lin didn't recognize the immortal master, and he still hoped that the immortal master would forgive his sins, I don't know what the immortal master would call?"
"My name is Shi Zibai, the old man doesn't have to be like this, tell me what the hell is going on first?" Xiaobai asked.
"It's been a month since this happened, before the family always saw a dark shadow flashing outside the window at night, at first I didn't care too much, but then someone began to die in the family, the death was extremely miserable, as if it had been eaten by some animal, and then people died one after another, during this time I also invited several immortal masters to come to check, but the invited immortal masters without exception, either died or fled. Zhang Lin took Xiao Bai into the courtyard and told Xiao Bai what had happened in the City Lord's Mansion recently.
"If the immortal master doesn't live in the mansion now, tomorrow I will ask people to take the immortal master to check around, and the immortal masters who came before are like this. Zhang Lin said.
"No need, since this ghost always appears at night, it must only come out at night, and I'm afraid I won't be able to find any clues during the day. Where was that old man injured just now?" asked Xiaobai.
"It was in the kitchen. Zhang Lin replied.
"Take me to see it!" Xiaobai said.
"Okay! this way, please!" Zhang Lin stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please, and took Xiaobai to the kitchen. Xiaobai walked into the kitchen and saw that there were still traces of fighting around it, and there were scratches on the walls and stoves, and these scratches were in groups of three every three, which were very regular, like the claw marks of some animal.
"Old man, you go out first. Two bright lights suddenly flashed under the stove, and Xiao Bai frowned and said to Zhang Lin.
"Okay!" When he came to the place where this kind of ghost might exist, Zhang Lin was also very frightened in his heart, and when he heard Xiaobai's words, he quickly left the kitchen.
"Why do you want to hurt people's lives?" Xiaobai said.
"Who are you? Why bother with this. A shrill voice came from under the stove.
"Why do you want to hurt people's lives?" Xiao Bai asked again with a serious expression.
"You humans have found out that our demon clan is trying their best to kill us, why can't I kill people? besides, the human race is worthy of being the chief of all spirits, eating human flesh and blood can increase cultivation faster, why don't I kill?" The voice under the stove came again.
"There are many ways to practice, why choose this method that hurts the heavens and harms reason? The human race has the life of the human race, and the demon race naturally has the life of the demon race, if you don't want to contact the human race, just go to the place where the demon race exists, why do you want to eat people for a living?"
"Hmph! How long will it take to cultivate the vitality of heaven and earth every day before you can achieve success? Although these mortals can't practice, the human race is worthy of being the head of all races, and these mortals have essence in their bodies, and eating a mortal can last a few days of cultivation, how do you choose? After talking so much nonsense to you, my mouth is dry, so I will moisten my throat with your blood. A black shadow came out from under the stove, and it was actually a rat with a body length of more than a foot, and it was a rat demon who had been in the realm of the Seven Pattern Demon Pill.
As soon as the rat demon came out, he launched an attack on Xiaobai, and his sharp claws grabbed Xiaobai's head, Xiaobai's figure flashed slightly, flashed the attack of the rat demon, and waved a wind blade on the rat demon's body, and with a bang, the rat demon broke through the window and fell into the courtyard.
"If you promise to leave now, I will let you go without hurting people's lives in the future. Xiaobai walked out of the kitchen, looked at the rat demon and said, they are all demon clans, although Xiaobai does not agree with the rat demon's approach, but he can't bear to kill him, after all, this is the first demon clan that Xiaobai has encountered in this experience.
"I didn't expect you to be really a cultivator, great, the old man of the city lord invited before were all liars, all of them were no different from mortals, and the strongest one was just the Qi acceptance period, it seems that you are a bit of a Taoist, and my cultivation will definitely rise sharply after eating you. The rat demon looked at Xiaobai and stretched out his tongue and licked his mouth. The body swelled violently, and the originally one-foot-long mouse instantly turned into a behemoth that stretched more than seven feet long.
"Talented?" Xiao Bai frowned and looked at the rat demon.
"Yes, I didn't expect that I could awaken the talent of a rat demon, right? haha!" This rat demon is actually a demon clan that has awakened the talent of the demon, and the body has become larger, which is the talent of the rat demon, and with the huge body, the strength of the rat demon has also increased greatly, and the speed has indeed not slowed down because the body has become larger.
"You have this kind of talent, if you practice well, it would be great, the demon race is not a murderous and tyrannical race, cannibalism is even more intolerable, whether the demon race or the human race for their own selfish interests will disregard the lives of others, they should die. Xiao Bai rushed towards the rat demon with a cold face, the rat demon saw Xiao Bai rushing and waved a huge rat claw and grabbed Xiao Bai, Xiao Bai clenched his fist with his right hand, and punched on the rat demon's rat claw, the rat demon only felt that the claw seemed to be interrupted by this punch, and hurriedly retreated, Xiao Bai waved his hands continuously, and the wind blades cut towards the rat demon. Before, Xiaobai saw that everyone was merciful for the sake of the demon clan, and the wind blade that initially hit the rat demon did not have much power, but just knocked the rat demon away, this time Xiaobai shot out angrily, and the power of the wind blade immediately rose, and one after another the wind blade hit the rat demon's body and splashed patches of blood.
Xiaobai had no disputes in the place where he lived in the clan before, let alone killing, and Shi Zihua had also told Xiaobai about some things in the outside world before, Shi Zihua still had some good feelings about the Terrans, this time he came out to experience Xiaobai met a lot of Terrans along the way, and before arriving at the city, he passed by the village and stayed at the home of the kind-hearted Terrans, for the Terrans, Xiaobai felt that the Terrans were very good, but he had heard a lot of monsters and cannibalism along the way, and the demons that Xiaobai had contacted were all people in the clan, all of them were honest and diligent demons, and they were all kind-hearted and simple-hearted demons, but because of these human-feeding monsters, the entire demon clan was misunderstood, Xiaobai was inexplicably angry in his heart, and this rat demon had eaten people for fun, it was really unforgivable, regardless of the demon race, this kind of guy who wantonly trampled on the lives of others was eliminated. Xiao Bai no longer showed mercy, and the wind blades soon overflowed the blood of the rat demon and couldn't move. Naturally, the Rat Demon's innate supernatural powers could no longer be maintained.
"The reputation of my demon clan is ruined by scum like you, and the demon clan living in the land of the human race has to hide everywhere and dare not be discovered, and it is the scum like you who does not work hard and always wants to rely on crooked ways. Xiaobai looked down at the rat demon.
"Are you actually a demon clan?transformation demon cultivator?" the rat demon looked at Xiaobai in shock.
"Heaven is intolerable, and everyone will be punished. Xiaobai said angrily.
"Haha! That's right, everyone gets to be punished, you lived in your own race before you transformed, right? You haven't been to the world of the human race, do you? Do you know how unfriendly this human world is to the demon race, you are also transformed into being mistaken by the human race for human beings to get their friendliness, if you are in the form of a beast, try to speak to them? Do you know that there is such a saying among the human race that is called non-our race, and their hearts must be different. This is the case with my demon race in the world of the human race. The rat demon laughed.
"The immortal master has defeated the monster! the immortal master has defeated the monster!" The guards who were secretly hiding outside the courtyard shouted when they saw that Xiaobai had defeated the monster.
