The demon is different from the usual. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The vast earth, the vast universe, all things are present and forested, since ancient times, demons and human beings in general, living in this world. It's just that people's lives are too short, and they come and go in a hurry. The demon enjoys a thousand-year lifespan, which is long enough. However, there are advantages and disadvantages, demons have yin and yang two phases, yin and beast phases, yang and human phases, the newborn demons and beasts are the same, after hundreds of years of chaos, suddenly one day the wisdom hole opens, and the self is reborn yang.

Therefore, although the lifespan is a thousand years, if compared with human beings, most of their lives are in confusion, so there are many young deaths. However, the road to the public, there must be its loss, once the demon is born yang, under the combination of yin and yang, you can call the wind and rain, compare with the wind and clouds, and have many magical powers.

The demon in Xia City has been haunted for many days, and at the beginning, the demon did not hurt people, but just took some livestock, killed it and threw it in front of the city lord's mansion. But on this day, someone opened the door early in the morning, and saw corpses lying everywhere in the forest and on the title, and suddenly, the whole Xia City boiled.

Miao people are like strong wine, even if they call friends to gather in the city lord's mansion, ask the city lord to send someone to implore his mother-in-law to catch demons.

There are sayings in the rivers and lakes, the carpenter in Shu, the thief in Xiangxi, the mother-in-law in Miaoyu, and the ghost in Bishan. Tens of thousands of miles of Miao Jiang, there are countless Gu cultivators, but if you say that Gu art is a great success and a master, only the three women of Miao Domain.

Mother-in-law of Golden Flower, Mother-in-law of Honeysuckle, Mother-in-law of Blood Flower.

In the hearts of the Miao people, the three mothers-in-law are all celestial figures, hidden in the deep mountains and old forests, eating and drinking, and easily disappearing. But if they come to catch demons, they must be caught upside down.

The city lord of Xiacheng is named Ji'an Dongyang, who has been in charge of Xiacheng for more than 20 years, and is a hereditary third-class marquis, so he is also known as Ji'an Hou. Of course he knew about the demons in the city, and he invited a few people with advanced Taoism to come to catch demons early, but they were all frightened away by the monster without exception.

Now, the residents of the city came to invite, but Ji'an Hou wandered around the house, sighing and frowning, not because he didn't want to send someone to invite the three women of Miao Yu, but because the three women of Miao Yu have been in the world for decades, he doesn't know where they are, how can he go to invite?

There was a shout from outside the house:

"Master Hou, if you don't get this demon, this demon will disrupt the summer city......"

"Lord Hou, please send someone into the mountains and forests quickly, and implore my mother-in-law to come and subdue the demons......"

The Marquis of Ji'an was extremely friendly in charge of Xiacheng and had always treated the people like sons. At this moment, listening to the pleading voices of the people outside the house, my heart was like numbness, and I couldn't sit or stand.

At this moment, the voice outside the house suddenly fell.

Shao leaned, the head of the palace guard rushed in and said, "Master Hou, someone has unveiled the hanging list!"

"Really?!"

Ji'an Hou was overjoyed, the tea bowl in his hand almost fell to the ground, flicked his sleeves, walked to the outside of the house, and said as he walked: "I don't know where it is, Ben Hou will go to greet him." ”

The head of the palace guard thought for a moment and replied, "Two men and women of the Han family. ”

"Oh?" Ji Anhou frowned, his expression was slightly unnatural, and he swept away, and his pace fell faster.

After a short time, he came to the door, looked around, but saw a group of people gathered in front of the door, among them two Han people standing in front of the hanging list, a man and a woman, the man was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with an ordinary face and a thick knife on his back. The woman was a little baby, about ten years old, with two huge eyes and two strands of pigtails.

This is the stranger who unveiled the list?

If you say that the young man's family still has a bit of the style of a high-roller, but that little girl doesn't look like a character who can catch demons, I'm afraid that the monster will swallow her when he opens his mouth......

Ji Anhou's brows furrowed even tighter, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

At this time, the residents of the city saw that the Marquis of Ji'an had come, and they fell to the ground one after another, begging the city lord to surrender the demon as soon as possible. For a while, the crowd was heated and burst into tears. Ji'an Hou was in the crowd, it was difficult to ride a tiger, and he glanced at the leader of the palace guard, his face was slightly sad.

"You're the lord of the city?"

Unexpectedly, the little girl came out of the crowd, walked straight to him, looked up with a little face, and asked with a big grin.

Ji Anhou was patient, frowned, and said: "I am the lord of Xia City, I don't know the little ......"

"I can catch demons!"

The little girl interrupted Ji Anhou's words, crossed her waist with one hand, walked in front of people with square steps, waved her hand, and said loudly: "This demon is extremely vicious, it is a thousand-year-old black cat, which can swallow people's souls, eat human flesh and bones, and know the changes, the sun is a cat, and the wings of the night turn into birds, breathing thousands of miles, and ordinary people are difficult to beat." My brother and I have been chasing it for a long time, and I don't want this evil obstacle to escape to Miao Domain Summer City!" he said, his face smuggling.

"...... Uproar"

The crowd kneeling on the ground was in an uproar, and gradually everyone changed color, you need to know that there is a cat ghost in the Miao Domain, this cat ghost is extremely bloodthirsty, specializing in eating people's hearts and spleens, but is it not the soul of the devouring god? Miao Jiang Bai Gu even evolved a cat Gu because of this, but although the difference between this cat Gu and the cat ghost is only one word, it is 108,000 miles apart.

No wonder when I opened the window last night, I suddenly saw a big black bird flying overhead, with a wingspan of ten feet and iron claws like a basin, but it had a cat's face, which frightened ......me."

"Shopkeeper Li said very well, I also seemed to hear a few cat meows last night, which was so miserable that it penetrated people's bone marrow......"

"It must be a cat ghost, no wonder it's so powerful......"

Suddenly, the crowd was boiling and shouting. The little girl nodded with satisfaction to the sharp-beaked monkey-cheeked shopkeeper Li.

After a while, Ji'an Hou suppressed the crowd, introduced the two immortal masters into the mansion, and ordered the palace guard to watch the tea and serve the wine.

After entertaining the two immortal masters with good wine and good food, Ji Anhou stroked his three-inch short beard and asked, "I don't know where the two immortal masters are, where is the immortal mountain, and what is the school?"

The little girl wiped her mouth and said indifferently: "The city lord is polite, the immortal master does not dare to be! I and my brother studied under the Zhengyi Sect of Longhu Mountain, and the name of the master is not spoken, but it is Zhang Zhenren." As he spoke, he took out a sword hairpin from his bosom and poked it on the table carelessly.

Zhengyi Sect, Zhang Zhenren?

Zhang Yingji......

Ji'an Hou was in a daze, although he was the Miao Tuhou and was in Xia City all the year round, but he also knew that there were very few people in the world who could be called real people, and Zhengyi Sect was only the master Zhang Yingji who could be called a real person! ”

Don't be surprised, this Ji'an Hou is the Miao Marquis of the Han Emperor, and he should follow the etiquette of the Han family, and Zhang Yingji was awarded the title of Heavenly Master by the Han Emperor.

"Well said, well said. The little girl stood up and returned the salute, her expression indifferent.

The man with the knife also lazily got up and hugged a punch.

The two looked arrogant, and Ji Anhou secretly thought: "Sure enough, he is a famous disciple of the Han family, and because of his uneducated background, his nostrils are all facing the sky." Thinking so in his heart, he said with a smile on his face: "This demon has been in the city for many days, and today Zhang Zhenren and two high-ranking disciples came to subdue the demon, which is really the blessing of the summer city." To tell the truth, two days ago, Ben Hou also invited a few strangers to come to subdue the demon, but this demon was extremely good, so it didn't work out. I don't know if the two of them need the lieutenant generals of the Hou Mansion to help with strong bows and crossbows?"

"No need!"

The little girl pretended not to understand, waved her hand, and said coldly: "That's a thousand-year-old demon, and it's not a mountain bandit road tyrant, how can a mere crossbow hurt it?!"

Ji Anhou said with a smile: "That's right, although Ben Hou has been in Miao Jiang for a long time, he has often heard that the world praises him, and the disciples of Zhang Zhenren of Zhengyi Sect are exquisite, and they can take the head with a flying sword, but unfortunately they can't see it." I don't know if I can open my eyes to ...... today."

"Humph!"

The little girl raised her eyebrows, raised her hand, and the sword hairpin in her hand came out of her hand, and she turned around the helmet of the head of the guard, and she didn't hear a sound, and saw that the sharp horns on the man's helmet had been cut off by Qi Gen, and with a "click", he fell to the ground. Immediately, the sword hairpin flew back into his palm and spun around, letting out bursts of sword groans.

The knife-bearer picked up the sharp corner, closed it in his palm and rubbed it gently, then spread his palm.

The sharp horn was gone, and only an iron pellet remained.

Everyone changed color, and the leader of the palace guard subconsciously touched his neck, and cold sweat was oozing out of his vest.

After a while, Ji Anhou clapped his hands and praised: "It's good, it's good, the flying sword takes the head, the palm holds the sun and the moon, if the Tao is really exquisite! There are two masters here, and the cat ghost will definitely be in trouble tonight!"

After speaking, he ordered the head of the palace guard to take a hundred taels of silver, and ordered someone to sort out two private rooms, and invited the two to live in the city lord's mansion, waiting for the sunset and moonrise to subdue the demons. Who knows, the little girl didn't want to stay in the house, and said yes, she needed to set up a prison circle in all directions of the city, so as not to escape again.

Ji Anhou saw the flying sword and wanted to be close to them, but the two insisted on leaving, and in desperation, they had to send the two out of the house.

The little girl and the knife-carrying guest came out of the house, and without stopping for a moment, they went straight to the Four Seas Inn.

When they arrived in the stack, it was already noon, and when the shopkeeper Li saw the two of them returning, he greeted him with a smile and ordered the shopkeeper to bring out the chicken noodle soup that had already been prepared.

Xiao Qinghou threw a piece of silver to the shopkeeper Li, and then went to see Li Jinsu in the courtyard, and after a while, he went back and forth, and came out to eat noodles.

Qingyang ate the chicken noodle soup in three or two bites, took a sip of wine, lit up a pair of eyes, and said: "Qinghou, I always feel that this thing is strange and strange. ”

"What...... What's wrong?" Xiao Qinghou buried his head in eating noodles and spoke indistinctly.

Qingyang thought for a moment and said in a low voice: "Think about it, that monster will make trouble every night, but it is just to kill a bunch of livestock and throw it at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, isn't it strange?"

Xiao Qinghou glanced at him and said angrily: "Nonsense, didn't that monster harm people's lives last night?"

Qingyang was stunned, smiled and did not speak. The people who died last night were all killed by them, but they were spread on the heads of the monsters, how innocent the monsters were!

The chicken soup is very fresh, Xiao Qinghou drank all the noodle soup, sighed with satisfaction, wiped his mouth, and said indifferently: "Take people's money, eliminate disasters for others, no matter what strange and strange he has, you and I just hunt demons tonight!"

Qingyang frowned and said, "That monster has come and gone without a trace, where can I catch it?"

"Stupid!"

Xiao Qinghou curled his index finger, flicked Qingyang's head, and said, "Didn't you just say that when that monster makes trouble at night, it will inevitably throw livestock at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion." At night, we don't go anywhere, just wait for the rabbits. ”

Qingyang pondered for a while, and hesitated: "What if, what if you can't beat the monster?"

"Huh......"

Xiao Qinghou's big eyes purred for a while, and he thought: "Those who plan for everything will stand, and those who do not plan for the worst must be prepared for the worst in advance!"

"Two guest officers, what do you order?" shopkeeper Li ran over, his face full of smiles.

Xiao Qinghou was very satisfied with the attitude of the shopkeeper Li, and ordered: "Sauce the chickens and ducks, make some dry food to eat, and buy more old ginseng and yellow essence and put it in the ox cart! Well, add some fine to the cow, fresh young leaves, no hay!"

"This ......," the shopkeeper took the silver, and his little eyes turned away.

"Shopkeeper, please fill up the wine as well. ”

Qingyang lifted the wine gourd, his throat couldn't help rolling, he drank all the wine in the pot in one gulp, and slowly put the empty gourd on the table.

"The two immortal masters were originally ...... here"

At this time, the sun dimmed behind them, and several oblique shadows penetrated in, and the three of them looked stunned, and hurriedly turned back, only to see the leader of the Nafu Guard leading a group of armor soldiers with helmets and armor standing at the door.
