Volume 1: Reading is not Confucian sour Chapter 32 There are fires and demons in the night
The night was as quiet as a pool of stagnant water, and only the sound of flames burning dead wood echoed in everyone's ears.
The tiny crackling in the cold of the northwest is inexplicably pleasant.
Since these five people approached, the demon chaser in Ying Tianchang's arms began to heat faintly, because on the first day after leaving the academy, Ying Tianchang, who was sitting on Qingshan's back, took advantage of the two bull demons to connect the mana of Qinghuang Qingshan with the spiritual power of the demon chapel talisman he had drawn, so as to avoid that the demon exorcism talisman would affect Qinghuang and Qingshan in the future. This also made the dozen or so demon chasing talismans in his arms not react to the demonic qi of Qinghuang and Qingshan. It's just that compared to the demon avoidance talisman and other talismans, the warning that the demon chaser can do is really limited, but combined with what Qingshan said before, Ying Tianchang guessed that there were monsters mixed in this line.
And what made Ying Tianchang affirm his thoughts was the old man's words and the telepathy between himself and Baozi.
Buns are one of the four murderous gluttonies of ancient times, and it is impossible to go wrong in this life.
As for why the monster took such great trouble to hide among these people, Ying Tianchang knew a little after knowing where this group of people went. This mess in the northwest is troublesome, and the trouble may be far more than the strength of the seven demon kings. Ying Tianchang grinned, in fact, it was possible to remove it.
The man named "Li Huan" in the old man's mouth was stunned, and quickly turned his gaze for help to his companion.
The old man hesitated to speak, and the young man on the side stood up and walked towards the man and Ying Tianchang, saying, "Li Huan is the ...... of our village" Before he could finish speaking, Ying Tianchang pushed him to the ground, and at this moment, a hand paw covered with black fur was not far in front of him. Fortunately, this claw was captured by the scholar who carried the long sword, otherwise the young man estimated that he would have been caught by it, or he would have been directly pierced by it.
And this claw grew to the shoulder of the man named "Li Huan", who had already severed his arm.
The boy remembered his mother who died in front of him, and his face turned even paler.
The young girl's sister was by the fire, crying like a flood bursting its banks, not only could not stop, but also cried louder and louder.
Tears also became more and more, hitting the loess and yellow sand drop by drop.
In a moonless night, it should be the situation, the situation, and it should not be.
Ying Tianchang turned his back to the girl, and he was a little distressed.
Ying Tianchang's grip on his claws became heavier and heavier, and Ying Tianchang said, "I thought you would argue, but I didn't expect to be so upright." ”
The man didn't seem to feel the strength of Ying Tianchang's hand, and there was a smile on his face, he said: "It's not a clever disguise, it's just to sneak into Weiming City, who would have thought that a few of you sharp-eyed people would be killed on the way." ”
His black-furred claws suddenly became smaller, and they were suddenly withdrawn, and Ying Tianchang grabbed them for a while. The man who withdrew his arm smiled: "But it's okay, kill you, just wait for the next group of refugees." ”
After speaking, Ying Tianchang saw that black smoke came out of his body, wrapping himself, and when the smoke dissipated in the next moment, what was revealed was a black-skinned pig demon with the appearance of a man and beast.
On his mouth, there are two huge white fangs.
Ying Tianchang kicked the young man behind him back to his sister.
Ying Tianchang asked them if the bodies of the monsters were so huge when he saw Qinghuang Qingshan's huge mountain-like body, Qinghuang said that this was not the case, the reason why he and Qingshan's body was so big was because they had devoured an unknown immortal fruit when they were young, and their body size was so huge, and this is why their brothers were able to become sperm.
Qinghuang also mentioned that in addition to the transformation into a human form with magical powers, there are two main types of monsters, one is the beast-shaped body, which is the kind that Qinghuang Qingshan revealed before. Except for the two special cases of Qinghuang Qingshan, generally speaking, the higher and deeper the cultivation of monsters, the most intuitive embodiment is the increase in the body posture of the beast, but there are also many big demons who will take the initiative to maintain the original body size. In addition to this, there is also an orc appearance, and youkai are also most often shown in this appearance.
The pig demon in front of him is like this.
The advantage of this appearance is that it can not only exert its own strength, but also better use some magic powers, or some magic weapons and immortals.
"Be careful. Aoyama suddenly reminded.
At the same time as Qingshan spoke, Ying Tianchang was already alert, his heart moved, and the peach blossoms behind him suddenly came out of the sheath, and the sword light was as white as new snow. Ying Tianchang held this sword light and slashed straight forward, the monster who originally wanted to sneak attack Ying Tianchang had no choice but to be seized by Ying Tianchang, so he had to withdraw to avoid this sword.
"It is also common for sour scholars to carry swords on their backs, but most of them are embroidered pillows that are useless, except for looking disgusting, they are useless. I didn't expect you to be a practitioner with some skills. Out of nowhere, the monster pulled out an iron rod and waved it in his hand.
Ying Tianchang smiled, flicked the peach blossom sword blade with his fingers, and said, "Otherwise, how dare Xiao Sheng come to this northwest land to eliminate the demons of the troubled times?"
This made even Ying Tianchang feel disgusting when he said this.
"People with lofty ideals are not bad. ”
The black-skinned pig demon danced the iron rod into a circle, and finally hit Ying Tianchang's head, the first stick crossed in front of Ying Tianchang, and the strong wind made Ying Tianchang's clothes and hair all blow back. At this time, Ying Tianchang not only didn't have any nervousness, but a joking idea came out of his mind, if he hadn't regressed in time, his head might have been smashed into his chest.
In the strong wind set off by the iron rod, Ying Tianchang remembered the first time he was forced by the sword, when he had not met Baozi, or in a bad alley, two teenagers who were only one or two years older than Ying Tianchang at that time used rusty daggers to stick to Ying Tianchang's neck, only for Ying Tianchang to turn out half of the chicken leg from the swill bucket. He saw the black of the pupils in the eyes of the two teenagers, but the darkness seemed to swallow his heart, he could no longer feel his heart beating, and he knew that if he didn't hand over the half of the chicken leg, they would really stop his heart beating.
Although Ying Tianchang had learned a lot of magic and martial arts, at that moment, his mind was blank as opposed to the pitch black he saw, and he even forgot to reach out and take out a paper cutter from his waist that was much sharper than the rusty dagger. He didn't know what he was supposed to do, no, maybe he knew what he was supposed to do. After that, until now, when Ying Tianchang recalls the events of that time, he will tell himself that he knew what to do at that time, and he did it.
Quite simply, I gave them the chicken legs, and I could only give them them. After that, Ying Tianchang walked out of the alley, listening to the voices behind him change from quarrel to roar and then to scream, Ying Tianchang knew that his pupils would never be as dark as their eyes were dyed by unknown desires, but he would never do such a thing again.
Ying Tianchang still remembers that when he turned around, he saw a pool of blood red flowing slowly. He was glad it wasn't him, but he wasn't happy.
He could feel as if he was standing in a swamp of mud, slowly sinking.
It would be nice if I could solve them with one punch. Not now, then later.
In those years of escaping from the famine, Ying Tianchang did not feel that it was too hard to bear, but now he is very glad that he has such an experience. He became mature and no longer a cowardly child, he learned patience and became able to control his emotions. He also saw all kinds of fears, the kind of fears he wanted to see.
Ying Tianchang has always believed that only when he has seen more and has a broad vision can he walk freely.
He learned to endure because he thought he would never be patient again.
Compared with other scholars, Ying Tianchang has seen many lives and deaths, and has also experienced many lives and deaths.
"It's said that the Northwest monster is ruthless, but I didn't expect you to talk so much. ”
The next few sticks, Ying Tianchang used the peach blossom sword to block, several collisions, but he was shocked by the force on the stick and his arm was numb, and before he could recover, the iron rod of the black-skinned pig demon once again stopped his waist, and Ying Tianchang did not dare to block directly, but relied on his body to dodge.
Ying Tianchang was forced back more than ten steps, getting closer and closer to the fire behind him.
The old man and the lame woman had already dragged the young girl back into the distance, and they still didn't dare to imagine that this Li Huan was actually the monster that had eaten the villagers.
I don't know if it was the cold after leaving the flames or the fear in my heart, the four of them hugged each other, shivering as if they had just seen each other, only the girl was still crying.
Next to the fire, only green and yellow, green mountains and steamed buns remained.
Qinghuang didn't look at Ying Tianchang's battle with the black-skinned pig demon, his eyes were just staring at the beating flames, his hands were close, sparks burst out of the flames, and he stretched out his fingers to touch them.
But his face was full of discomfort.
"Aoyama!"
Ying Tianchang shouted after dodging a stick sideways.
His eyes were on the four refugees.
Qingshan's figure suddenly arrived in front of the pig demon, and he suddenly punched, knocking the black-skinned pig demon with a stick out of the way.
"It's long overdue for me to loosen my muscles. Aoyama shook his head, pinching his finger bones with both hands, and making a loud noise.
Ying Tianchang ignored him, and several demon chases and talismans flew out one after another in his arms, and flew to the four refugees under the traction of Ying Tianchang's qi machine, forming a Taoist talisman array.
After the talisman array was formed, Ying Tianchang said to the four of them, "Don't come out." ”
The pig demon had taken a hostage to make him throw himself into a rat trap, and the ghost knew when it would attack these people again. No matter how many steps these four people take back, it will be a matter of a moment in front of the pig demon.
The four of them looked at the circle of talismans under their feet, and only nodded.
"The demonic energy on that pig demon is extremely weak, there should be some secret method to cover the demonic energy. Ying Tianchang walked back to Qingshan.
The pig demon hadn't gotten up from the ground yet.
"Just leave it to me, you can look at it from behind. Qingshan didn't seem to hear what Ying Tianchang said, and he was gearing up.
Ying Tianchang was helpless and put the peach blossoms into the sheath. Suddenly, he remembered something, and asked in a loud voice, "But the Tiger Leaping City Tooth King of the Red Valley Country?"
Qingshan turned his head to look at Ying Tianchang, and then at the pig demon, the flames in his eyes were even worse.
The night wind rose again, blowing the flames and yellow sand.
The black-skinned pig demon stood up with an iron rod, walked slowly from the wind and sand, and said, "Exactly!"
Ying Tianchang smiled at this time, patted Qingshan's arm, and said, "Now rest assured, fortunately, he is not the tooth king." ”
Aoyama sighed, he didn't think so, but it was better than nothing.
