Chapter 12 Is it a man or a demon
Yan Huan and Xiao Mu immediately ran back and began to pack their things, and then ran towards the transmission array.
In front of the transmission array, an old man stood there, standing with his hands in his hands, his eyes closed, his long white beard fluttering in the air. Yan Huan and Xiao Mu arrived in front of the transmission array, bowed down and bowed, "Master!"
"Hmm. This time you go to the mortal world to eliminate demons, you must pay attention to safety, this is your mission this time! Remember, you must come back as soon as possible after completing the task, don't be greedy for fun, when you arrive at the transmission array, you can come back by urging this talisman with blood. Hua Taixu handed a book to Xiao Mu and said, "Go!"
Yan Huan and Xiao Mu walked up to the transmission array, Xiao Mu and Yan Huan stood on the transmission array, waved their hands, and said goodbye to Hua Taixu with a smile. Hua Taixu nodded, sealed his hands, and slapped his palm on the transmission array, and the transmission array began to rotate.
With a bang, the entire transmission array disappeared into this space. Hua Taixu stared at it for a long time before turning back. Yan Huan and Xiao Mu sat in the transmission array for the first time, and in this violent shaking, both of them were very scared, and there was a trace of horror in their eyes. At this time, Yan Huan's right hand stretched out and grabbed Xiao Mu's left hand, and a trace of warmth spread from Xiao Mu's palm to Xiao Mu's whole body. Xiao Mu looked at Yan Huan, and Yan Huan also looked at Xiao Mu.
Looking at each other, tenderness spreads in this independent space, which is the tenderness that belongs to the two of them.
"Don't be afraid, with me! there will be no danger to you with me. The boy's voice was thin and intimate. Xiao Mu didn't speak, just grabbed Yan Huan's hand.
"Boom" was another loud bang, and the transmission array stopped running. Suddenly, a ray of sunlight shone into the transmission array, Yan Huan and Xiao Mu were so stabbed by the sun that they hurriedly covered their eyes with their hands, and when their eyes adapted to the light, Yan Huan and Xiao Mu put down their hands and looked at this vast world.
There are fields of ploughed fields, blue skies, and curling smoke. "We've arrived in the mortal world!" Xiao Mu looked at everything in front of him blankly, opened his mouth wide, and said slowly.
"Yes, this is the mortal world!" Yan Huan was excited, after all, he grew up in the mortal world, and he had an inexplicable sense of belonging here, when he stepped on this land, he felt as if his feet were going to dig into this land, and he would absorb some nutrients!
"Senior sister, let's take a look at the name of this planet, where is this?" Yan Huan read the "Overview of the Five Realms" all night, and he knew that there were countless planets in this world, some of which were inhabited by humans, and some were sparsely populated, but monsters were rampant, and some were not even inhabited by humans. And the Five Realms have divided the sphere of influence, and the planet in front of him belongs to a planet under the control of the Immortal Realm.
Xiao Mu opened the scroll, looked at it, and said to Yan Huan: "This is the swaggering star, Tianman Village, the village chief here enshrines the Purple Immortal Temple established here by our Sword Sect, and has made contact with our Sword Sect. The village chief reported to the elders of our Sword Sect that there were monsters and asked our Sword Sect to subdue the demons. ”
"Youkai, does it say what kind of monster it is?" Yan Huan asked. Xiao Mu shook his head.
"In that case, let's go to the village to inquire about the situation first!" Yan Huan's eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about something.
"Okay, let's go!" Xiao Mu picked up his sword and left, and Yan Huan followed. Yan Huan and Xiao Mu came to the village, the population of the village is not large, there are only about 20 households, and the village houses are scattered dotted, some of the village houses face south, some of the village houses face north, and some of the village houses face east and west!
Yan Huan looked at the direction of these village houses and shook his head again and again. "How can anyone build a house like this!" Yan Huan muttered. Xiao Mu walked straight forward, she is a person who cultivates immortals, so she naturally doesn't understand these principles of building houses.
When the people in the village saw Yan Huan and Xiao Mu, they all looked at them with strange eyes. Yan Huan didn't understand it at first, but when he looked at Xiao Mu, Xiao Mu frowned even more. At this time, Yan Huan saw Xiao Mu's clothes and suddenly realized!
Yan Huan stopped an old man and asked, "Old man, where is your village chief's house?" The old man was not too surprised, probably because he had experienced a lot, so he was not surprised. The old man pulled the old voice and said, "Go along this road, turn left at the second intersection, and you will see a small river." His house is right next to the creek. ”
Yan Huan thanked him and pulled Xiao Mu away. Yan Huan arrived at the village chief's house and knocked on the door. An old man opened the door, and the furrows on the old man's face indicated that the old man must be a weathered man. "Who are you looking for?" asked the old man.
"Oh. Is this the village chief's house?" asked Yan Huan.
"That's right. I am the village head, Hong Hao. The two are ......," said the village chief.
"We are disciples of the Cold Sky Sword Sect, and we are here to help you get rid of demons!" Yan Huan said, and at the same time took out his waist card, which said "Cold Heaven"!
"Oh! You are the heirs of the Purple Immortal! Please come in!" As soon as the old village chief Hong Hao heard this, he immediately welcomed the two into the house, and shouted loudly: "Old woman, prepare tea, there is a distinguished guest!" An old woman came out of the house and said, "What distinguished guest?"
"It's the heir of the Purple Immortal who has come to help us get rid of the demon!" said the old village chief Hong, and the joy in his tone was unconcealed.
"Yo Yo Yo Yo That's really a distinguished guest! Quick, sit in the house, I'll go prepare tea first." The old woman hurriedly ran to the kitchen.
Yan Huan looked at this old couple, and suddenly remembered his grandfather, and his nose suddenly became sore, but Yan Huan held back his tears! Xiao Mu suddenly stretched out his hand and took Yan Huan's hand, Xiao Mu naturally understood Yan Huan's mood at the moment. Yan Huan didn't look at Xiao Mu, just smiled slightly, but the curvature of the corners of his mouth was trembling.
Yan Huan and Xiao Mu entered the hall and sat down in the hall, and Village Chief Hong sat in the hall.
"I don't know what the two immortals call each other?" Village Chief Hong was very kind, and every word was so respectful. It seems that this village has a lot of respect for that purple fairy!
This time, it was Xiao Mu who spoke first, because Xiao Mu knew that Yan Huan was not in a good mood. "Uncle Hong, the little girl's name is Song Mu. This is my junior brother's acknowledgment. Xiao Mu also said very respectfully.
"What a hero! You two can come out at a young age to get rid of demons. The old woman walked into the hall with a pot of tea, and praised the water. Yan Huan and Xiao Mu thanked each other.
"Uncle Hong, let's talk about monsters!" Xiao Mu took a sip of tea and said.
When Hong Hao heard this, he sighed and lowered his head. "Alas! Speaking of this, the old man is ashamed! It's the old man who didn't take care of those village names! The old man doesn't have the ability to fight against that damn monster!" Hong Hao said, tears streaming down his face.
"Uncle Hong doesn't have to blame himself, since it's a monster, it's beyond your ability! Please also ask Uncle Hong to tell us some details quickly, it's best to start from scratch!" Xiao Mu said.
"Yes, yes, yes! The immortal will tell the immortal everything about this!" Hong Hao wiped away his tears, calmed down, and began to say: "The matter of the monster starts five days ago. Five days ago, everyone had gone to bed early, and around the clock, there was a scream in the village, and then the dogs began to bark. Everyone was awakened by the scream, and hurried to the place where the scream came from, that is, the villager Zhang who died first. ”
Hong Hao took a sip of water, paused, and continued: "When we rushed to Zhang's home, Zhang Hui had already been killed. The monster gnawed Zhang Hui's shoulder away, and Zhang Hui's family was killed, but Zhang Hui's family was intact. At first, we didn't think it was a monster, thinking that Zhang Hui had provoked someone outside, and people came to seek revenge. Zhang Hui is a person who loves to cause trouble. But the next day, there was another scream in the village!"
The scream came from the house of a villager named Wang Jiu. When we hurried to Wang Jiu's house, we found that Wang Jiu's arm had also been eaten by a monster! And his family was not spared, but his family was also in good health! If we say that Zhang Hui was killed by the enemy, we believe it. But this Wang Jiu was by no means killed by the enemy! We know best that this Wang Jiu is a person, and there will never be any enemies if he is an honest native of the country. So some people speculated that the monster did it!"
"But I didn't believe it! But on the third day, something like that happened again! This time it was an honest man named Shi Mi! He was also eaten off by a monster! I was scared! So I enshrined the purple fairy in our Purple Immortal Temple, and begged him to send someone to kill the demon. On the fourth day before you came, another family died, and the head of this family was named Zhao Shun. Today is the fifth day!I implore the two great immortals to catch that monster!There can be no more dead people in the village!" said the village chief, and finally almost knelt down, but Yan Huan desperately supported him, so he didn't kneel.
"Yan Huan, what do you think of this?" asked Xiao Mu with a solemn face.
Yan Huan shook his head and said, "There are too many doubts in this matter! It's not a simple monster eating people!"
Yan Huan turned to Hong Hao and said, "Uncle Hong, may I ask if the bodies of those people are still there?"
"We've been afraid to move. Hong Hao said.
"Then please take us to have a look!" Yan Huan said immediately.
"Okay, okay, let's go!" Hong Hao took Yan Huan and Xiao Mu and walked out.
"This is the home of Zhang Hui, the first deceased, two immortals, please. Hong Hao arched his hand. Yan Huan said: "It's still Uncle Hong, you invite it first! When Yan Huan entered the house, he saw three corpses, all of which were covered with white cloths, and only the head was leaking.
Yan Huan approached the adult man's body and lifted the white cloth. Yan Huan found that the cut on the broken arm was very even, and the arm should not have been torn off, but cut off by a sharp weapon such as a sword! Thinking of this, Yan Huan couldn't help but be shocked in his heart. In this way, there are two situations! One is that this monster has cultivated into a human form and can use weapons such as swords, which means that this monster is at least a psychic realm!
And the second is even more terrifying, it is possible that these things are not done by monsters, but by people! Moreover, looking at this swordsmanship, this person's realm is not low, and he must have reached the Shenwu realm, or even higher!
Just as Yan Huan was pondering, Xiao Mu walked over.
"Yan Huan, have you found anything?" Xiao Mu asked softly, as if he was afraid of being heard by Hong Hao.
Yan Huan frowned, touched his eyebrows with his fingers, exhaled, and shook his head at Xiao Mu.
"I've found some clues, those dead people are all throats with a sword. The killer's swordsmanship is definitely beyond you and me!" Xiao Mu said to Yan Huan.
This is Hong Hao stepped forward and asked, "How is it?
"Uncle Hong, I don't hide it. We haven't found anything yet!So, you can take us to see the other dead!" Yan Huan's heart was spinning, what secrets are there in this village?
"This is the second Wang Jiu's home. Hong Hao pointed to a thatched hut and said, "This Wang has no wife and children for a long time, and there are only two old mothers and him at home." Wang Jiu is a well-known filial son in our village, who takes care of his mother on weekdays, and he takes care of it! It's a pity that he died like this! Alas, ......"
Yan Huan walked into the room and checked the corpse of Wang Jiu and his mother, the wounds on his arms were the same as those of that Hui, very neat! Yan Huan began to believe in his heart that this was man-made, not demon-made! But Yan Huan didn't say it, because before the murderer was caught, everything was just speculation.
Later, Yan Huan and Xiao Mu went to investigate the situation of the other two deceased, and the results were the same as the previous two. Yan Huan gradually had an answer in his heart......
