Chapter 10: The Demon Slayer

"Brother Ze, you're not joking, are you? Do you really want to worship a Taoist priest as a teacher?"

"Brother Ze, you can't have eaten the wrong thing these days, right? Or did you not grab that Oiran that night, and you are disheartened?"

Shi Mu and Gu Yuan heard that Cang Ze was looking for a Taoist priest, and when they asked, they actually wanted to worship that Taoist priest as a teacher, and they were both stunned, Cang Ze didn't care about this cultivation in the past, why did he suddenly have such a big change?

Cang Ze didn't talk nonsense with them, and asked out loud: "Why is this Lingshui County so deserted today?"

"Brother Ze, don't you know? Today, I gathered demon exterminators from several nearby counties, mobilized 3,000 soldiers and horses, and went up to the back mountain to encircle and suppress those demon beasts, and some of the people in the county who like to join in the fun also followed, so the street was a lot more deserted, if it weren't for Brother Ze'er, you were looking for someone, and the two of us would have gone early in the morning. Gu Yuan replied.

I see, it seems that the death of the son of a town prince is really much more serious than ordinary people, and I don't know how many people have been harmed by the demon beasts on the mountain for hundreds of years, and it is the first time that the government has paid such attention to it.

But since it was such a big battle, maybe the Taoist priest also went to the back mountain.

"Then let's go up the back mountain and have a look. Cang Ze said.

The three of them rode out of Lingshui County, and at the foot of the mountain behind them, there were a lot of people gathered here.

When they were close, in addition to those noisy discussions, the three of them vaguely heard bursts of beast roars......

At the foot of the mountain, in an iron cage more than a foot high, there was a hideous-looking demon beast locked up at this time, the monster beast was like a tiger, but it had a long tail like a poisonous scorpion, gray and brown fur, very ugly, and was constantly ramming the iron cage with its body, making an angry roar.

Outside the iron cage, there is an old man wearing a pale yellow robe, this old man is one of the demon slayers who were summoned, speaking of these demon slayers, they know how to draw talismans and chant spells, and they are the nemesis of those demon beasts and evil things, Cang Ze didn't believe in these spells before, but after getting the yellow talisman last night, he has now believed in seven or eight times.

There was a black rune pasted directly above the iron cage, and the iron cage like this could not trap those demon beasts, but after pasting the black talisman, every time the demon beast hit the cage, a layer of pale black rune enchantment would appear outside the cage, dissolving all the impact of the demon beast.

Cang Ze and the three of them squeezed through the crowd to the front, just to see the demon master holding a peachwood sword, walking a strange step outside the iron cage, so after a few laps, let go of the peachwood sword in his hand, the wooden sword did not fall to the ground, but flew into the sky with a "boom", directly above the demon beast, the tip of the sword turned downward, with a sharp wind, straight into the iron cage, the head of the demon beast, the whole nail on the ground, blood spread, only to see the demon beast convulsions a few times, is to die on the spot!

The crowd erupted in bursts of applause, and the people naturally hated these monsters who caused them to go up the mountain to chop firewood!

Looking at the bright red blood flowing from the demon beast, Cang Ze looked at the back of his hand, in the past, he would be tyrannical when he saw blood, but now he is no different, it seems that the yellow talisman is really effective.

As soon as the demon beast died, there was a lot of movement on the mountain behind, and the roar of the beast was deafening, mixed with the screams of many soldiers.

"Brother Ze, the opportunity is rare, we will also go up the mountain to see the scene of catching demon beasts!" Shi Mu was very surprised and suggested loudly.

Cang Ze couldn't find the figure here, so he nodded, ordinary people can't go up the mountain at this time, and the bottom of the mountain is blocked by officers and soldiers, but with Shi Mu's identity, these are not a problem, and the three of them rode up the mountain under the protection of a team of officers and soldiers.

The three of them followed the roar of the beast, and before they came to a hidden cave on the mountain, there were many bright red colors on the snow around here, and many people had died.

Several demon slayer in Taoist robes surrounded the entrance of the cave, and the sound of beast roars came from the cave.

It has been a stalemate for nearly an hour, and still has not captured or killed the demon beast in the cave, only to see the demon exterminator and several people discuss in a low voice for a moment, and then one of the elders took out a red talisman from his sleeve, and his face was as reluctant as cutting flesh, and he nailed the red talisman to the top of the cave with a peachwood sword.

As he read the words, he saw that the red rune suddenly spread out a layer of red runes, and in a moment it formed a circle along the mouth of the cave, and then the runes ignited again.

The three of them felt that it was amazing, the fire circle suddenly rose again, and the demon slayer took out a thing from his sleeve, it was a silver toad, the toad's stomach bulged, although it was only the size of a palm, but it blew out a big gust of wind, the grass and trees moved, the sand and stones rolled, and the flames on the fire ring were all blown into the hole by this gust of wind!

Black smoke billowed out of the cave, and soon the edges of the cave were blackened.

"Roar!"

There was a roar of rage in the cave that anyone could hear, and the ground trembled, and several demon slayers instantly retreated, and a moment later, from the cave, two black-brown wild boars with long hair rushed out, and Cang Ze was the first time to see such a big pig, comparable to a cow elephant!

The pigs' hairs were burned by the flames, and they looked very angry, and one of them suddenly arched towards a demon slayer, its ivory teeth as if it could shatter rocks!

The demon slayer was younger than the other demon slayers, probably only the age of Cang Ze and the others, and was suddenly chosen as the target by the giant tooth pig, and he panicked for a while, and when he retreated, he tripped over the stone under his feet and fell to the ground.

Several other demon slayer masters were shocked and were about to go to the rescue, only to see another giant tooth pig suck in its mouth, and the nearby white snow was actually sucked into its mouth, and the white snow froze in its mouth, and then sprayed towards those demon slayers!

"It's worthy of a demon beast, and it really knows some demon arts!" Shi Mu was very surprised.

I also saw that the sleeves of those demon exterminators shook, and all those close ice thorns were shattered, and some of them passed through a few people, nailed to the trees behind them, and even entered the wood for three points!

After a moment's delay, the giant tooth pig had already arched in front of the young demon slayer, and he saw the demon slayer take out a talisman in a panic, but before he had time to recite the spell, the pig's tooth had already broken through his body, arching it entirely, and blood splattered!

The scene was bloody, the young demon slayer vomited blood in his mouth, and after being pushed a few times, he died of anger, and the body was thrown out, rolling on the ground several times before stopping, his eyes were still open, and his face was full of despair and unwillingness.

How easy it is to die.
