Chapter 23: Heroes Are Hard to Be (Part I)

It was 50 years ago, coinciding with the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the night wind was howling, the clouds were thick, there were no stars and no moon, and the temperature plummeted. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The town gate was closed, and only three or two city patrol guards remained on duty.

At that time, Shabai Town was still very backward and poor, and the so-called bazaar was actually a flat mud land vacated in the center of the town, which was spontaneously gathered by the people, and finally formed a primitive farmers' market, with stalls for buying and selling raw poultry and livestock and buying and selling fruits and vegetables.

The more backward the place, the lower the people's living standards, the less concerned they are about the dirty and messy environment, and they are more concerned about whether the harvest in the field is good or not, and whether the old and young in the family have enough to eat today.

When encountering big festivals such as the Midyear Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival, no one will mind that the market is still full of filth and feces left by livestock and poultry.

Even if there is filth, it will give birth to miasma, and the miasma will accumulate and stagnate, and over time, it will breed monsters with ghosts and wild ghosts as Gu hearts.

Murong Bai, as a demon suppressor, naturally would not spare those monsters that were brewing, but because he had never acted in a high-profile manner, he had been lurking on the roof of a private house near the market that night.

At about nine o'clock in the evening, the townspeople who had come out to play slowly dispersed home, and when the small vendors in the market were also packing up their stalls and preparing to close, Murong Bai saw an unusual figure in the flow of people.

It was a burly man in a black cloak with all his features buried in his hood, walking in the opposite direction of the townspeople, at least half a body taller than ordinary people, but none of the people noticed his existence.

Murong Bai clenched the demon slaying sword in his hand, the fish jumped to a big tree closer to the market, the cat got up, and continued to observe and monitor the mysterious person.

Sure enough, as he expected, the mysterious man walked to the backlit side of the most shadowy concentration and began to do his luck, and the miasma condensed in his hand, fiddling with it several times, and gradually turned into a larger black shadow.

It was now, when Murong Bai saw that the time was ripe, he suddenly popped out of the tree, borrowed the roof of the house under his feet, and rushed towards the mysterious man with a light step.

The mysterious man seemed to be prepared for Murong Bai's existence, he still had his back to Murong Bai, and with a raise of his hands, the big black shadow and Murong Bai flew in the opposite direction.

Evolving as it flies, the black mist is blown away by the wind, revealing the physical monster in the black shadow, with sharp and white fangs, a tiger face, protruding eyes, sheep's horns on its head, and its feet stepping on dark clouds, walking against the wind.

Murong Bai put his fingers in the shape of a finger spear, pointed directly between his eyebrows, and recited the mantra in his mouth, and the blue light suddenly flashed from his pupils, and the eyes of heaven opened.

Looking at the essence through the appearance, Murong Bai could clearly see that the person who came should have been an ordinary tiger-faced monster, but it also had a spell in its body, no wonder it was able to use light skills as soon as it conjured up the demon body, and it flew up at will, daring that the mysterious man was secretly controlling the tiger-faced monster.

As the saying goes, shoot a man before a horse, and capture a thief before a king.

Murong Bai didn't intend to fight the tiger-faced monster at all, he jumped left and right, dodging the tiger-faced monster's attack, and rushed straight towards the mysterious man.

No, the mysterious man suddenly disappeared into a darker and darker place, and for a while, Tianyan couldn't find his existence.

Sure enough, he is a master, and he is a master among the bad guys.

Helpless, Murong Bai had to deal with the tiger-faced monster first, so as to lure the mysterious man to appear.

But the tiger-faced monster had the backing of a master, and every palm that attacked was done with all his might, so that Murong Bai dodged the palm blow but couldn't avoid the palm wind, and soon, there were countless knife-like blood marks on his face, and the blood was so miserable that it was mottled outside the green robe.

The tiger-faced monster has brute strength and endurance, it followed closely behind Murong Bai, jumping on the roofs of countless houses, and the trampling force was very strong, and many roofs were trampled down by it, causing the people in the houses to run to the street and curse the street.

Some people had sharp eyes and saw that it was a monster stepping and jumping on the roof, so they were so frightened that they hurriedly dragged their children and daughters, crawled back to the house, and locked the door.

But some people are just frustrated, not only are they particularly self-righteous, one of them is a pig killer, who holds himself to be stout, lifts the pig-killing knife and climbs on the roof of his house, shouting at the tiger-faced monster.

Murong Bai was worried that he had provoked the tiger-faced monster, so he had to guide the tiger-faced monster all the way to the outskirts of the town.

Seeing that the tiger-faced monster was about to enter the trap, the pig-killing guy thought that he was powerful, and scolded the tiger-faced monster away, and his brain was hot, and he threw the pig-killing knife in his hand at the tiger-faced monster.

"Khoo!!" He managed to attract the attention of the tiger-faced monster as the pig-killing knife bounced against the wall with a sharp metal striking.

Murong Bai's heart suddenly tightened, you must know that this tiger-faced monster is waiting for him to reveal his flaws.

If you don't die, it seems that you will definitely be planted in the hands of this pig killer today.

Murong Bai had no choice but to step on the tree, flip a beautiful roundhouse kick, and then rush straight to the pig killer.

It's just that Murong Bai is too far away from him, and the tiger-faced monster is close to him, and sure enough, as Murong Bai expected, the tiger-faced monster pinched the whole pig-killing guy in his hand in three steps and two steps.

"Murong Bai, come with me obediently today. The tiger-faced monster spoke.

It's strange, it's not a threat or a cannibalism, but instead asks yourself to go with it.

Puzzled, Murong Bai didn't make a sound, he just stopped on the roof of the house opposite, looking at the tiger-faced monster thoughtfully.

The tiger-faced monster said again: "I heard that Tang Seng is going west to learn scriptures, and he will pass by here early tomorrow morning, you go with me, catch that Tang Seng to peel the skin and eat meat, and ensure that you and I can live a long life." ”

Murong Bai smiled coldly: "Who do you think I am, if you tell me to go, I'll go, isn't it very shameless." Take 10,000 steps back, how can I, as a demon in this town, go to eat people with you, a monster?"

It's just that Murong Bai is too far away from him, and the tiger-faced monster is close to him, and sure enough, as Murong Bai expected, the tiger-faced monster pinched the whole pig-killing guy in his hand in three steps and two steps.
