Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Black Mist of Expansion
In the sky above the dark county office, three human-high rune phantoms suddenly appeared, illuminating a large area around the county office.
The three rune phantoms only stayed in the void for less than a breath before they turned into three streamers and drilled into the long knife held by Xu Ming.
"Human, you dare to fool me. ”
The demon's roar came from the mirror.
In response to it, there was an incomparably sharp, bright sword light.
The moment the sword light fell, a thick scarlet blood light bloomed from the blood-colored monster's single eye, wanting to resist the blade.
However, endless thunder burst out from the long knife, mixed with a wisp of golden light, and in an irresistible attitude, it easily broke through the blood light, directly splitting the blood-colored monster in half.
Then, even more blazing lightning swept out of the long knife, turning the two halves of the blood-colored monster's body into a cloud of ashes.
"Human, you're going to regret it. ”
When the blood-colored monster was destroyed, a cold voice came into Xu Ming's ears.
"Then wait until I regret it. ”
Spit out such a sentence expressionlessly, Xu Ming didn't give this demon a chance to speak, he turned over his hand and took out a talisman pen, and quickly carved a demon-suppressing rune on the back of the round mirror with a special rune liquid.
The next moment after the rune was drawn, as a layer of misty green light flashed from the rune pattern, the entire county government suddenly calmed down.
"Girl, come and put the mirror away. ”
After carefully looking at the round mirror that had fallen silent for a while, and after not finding anything abnormal, Xu Mingchao's Xiaoyuan, who was hiding in the corner, beckoned.
"Oh, here it is. ”
With a light response, Xiao Yuan put away the stack of rune papers he was holding tightly in his hand, shook his white and tender little short legs, and ran to Xu Ming's side.
She took the mirror handed by Xu Ming, looked up and down with a touch of curiosity on her round face, and said while looking.
"Childe, has you already destroyed that demon?"
"No, it's still in the mirror. Xu Ming clapped his hands and tidied up the slightly messy corners of his clothes.
"Huh?" Madoka was startled by this, and her little hand holding the mirror almost let go.
"It's okay, it won't come out anytime soon. ”
After comforting the little girl, Xu Ming moved his footsteps and walked towards Liang Zhen and the others.
"The two of them must be the people of the Demon Division of Lin'an Mansion, Xu Ming. ”
"The promise of promise, the dawn of dawn. ”
After getting closer, Xu Ming greeted the two with a smile.
Seeing that Xu Ming took the initiative to come up and talk, Liang Zhen hesitated slightly, and also opened his mouth to report to the door.
"Liang Zhen, the head of the Demon Division of Lin'an Mansion. ”
After he finished speaking, he consulted Lin Lao's opinion with his eyes, and after obtaining consent, he pointed his arm to Lin Lao and continued to speak.
"This is Lin Lao, the previous head of the Demon Division of Lin'an Mansion. ”
After listening to Liang Zhen's introduction, a bright smile immediately bloomed on Xu Ming's face.
"It turned out to be Director Liang and the former head of the department, disrespectful and disrespectful. ”
Xu Ming said, turned his hand and took out an abacus from the storage talisman on his chest, and then in front of Liang Zhen and the others, his knuckles danced quickly.
"Three hundred taels of silver for the Demon Suppression Talisman, a total of twelve, which is three thousand six hundred taels. ”
"The shooting fee is 10,000 taels of silver, and given that the target of this deal is a bit difficult to solve, the reward should be doubled, that is, 20,000 taels. ”
"Save the precious lives of the two chiefs, count it as 50,000 taels per person, a total of 100,000 taels of silver. ”
"By the way, there is also the ...... of travel expenses"
In front of the county government in front of the Tang Dynasty, looking at Liang Zhen, who was taking care of himself and settling accounts, a question appeared in his eyes.
Without waiting for him to ask, Xu Ming, who had finished settling the accounts, grinned at him and smiled.
"The two heads, Xu has just calculated, my transaction fee this time is all 123,900 taels of silver, may I ask if the two of you are cash or open an IOU?"
"What's the charge?"
After listening to Xu Ming's words, Liang Zhen was at a loss.
"Moreover, the so-called shooting fee is as high as 120,000 silver, so I just went to grab it. ”
Looking at Liang Zhen, who was silent, Xu Ming's dark eyebrows raised slightly.
"The two heads of the department shouldn't be repaying their debts, right?"
"What Xu Shaoxia said is that you saved our lives, and we should pay some money as a reward. ”
At this time, Lin Lao's voice came from Liang Zhen's side.
"However, we don't have so much cash with us, so we can only make an IOU with Xu Shaoxia first. ”
"Out of the way. Xu Ming smiled and waved his hand.
In the following period of time, Xu Ming took action to sober up all Tang Zhong and his party, who were still in a state of confusion, and asked them to take pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and let Liang Zhen write an IOU.
After collecting the IOU, under Tang Zhong's arrangement, Xu Ming happily took the little girl and lived in a side room in the back hall of the county ya.
"Who is this Xu Ming, who is so powerful, could it be that he came from those places?"
In the silence of the night, Liang Zhen looked at Xu Ming's room where the lights had been turned off, and asked in a half-suspicious tone.
Lin Lao stood aside with his body bent, and did not respond immediately, he raised his head to look at the sky covered by black mist, and only after a long time did he speak quietly.
"It doesn't matter where he comes from, as long as he's still a normal human, that's enough, go to bed early. ”
Lin Lao said, and walked into his room with a trembling figure.
Seeing the back of Lin Lao walking away, Liang Zhen took a deep breath and walked silently to his room.
At this point, the county government of Nuoda was completely silent, and only the devastated scene in front of the Tang Dynasty proved that a fierce battle had just taken place here.
Just when Xu Ming and the others were all resting, on the tall building where Liu Chong fused with the round mirror, a succubus clone in a big red robe stood flutteringly on it.
"Is it sealed, this Xu Ming is really interesting. ”
Retracting his eyes looking in the direction of the county office, the succubus clone pursed the corners of his mouth and whispered to himself.
Then, it brushed the black hair that shimmered on its forehead, and with a pair of empty eyes, it looked at the black mist that was slowly spreading into Mizukawa County, and muttered with bright red lips one by one.
"Unexpectedly, this fog demon already has some wisdom and knows how to hide his body. ”
"But do you think that in this way, the deity can't do anything about you? ”
The light voice of the words still echoed on the high platform, but the big red figure had disappeared.
After a whole day of brewing, the black fog that surrounded the entire Mizukawa Prefecture covered nearly half of the area compared to the morning.
At this moment, in those areas shrouded in thick black fog, pitch-black figures moved again.
"Knock...... Knock knock ......"
A dull knock on the door rang out in the endless darkness.
Accompanied by sparse screams, a lot of dry bones were added to the entire Shuichuan County again.
