Chapter 147 Tang Monk can be seen everywhere
The morning light is faint.
The mountain breeze carried the coldness of early winter, and seven or eight carriages drove along the official road towards Nujiang Town.
The car body depicts Jinwuwei's unique ferocious beast pattern, which is a two-headed tiger crawling on the ground, and is affixed with a talisman to detect the aura of demons.
There were nearly a hundred people there, including three people from ten households and one person from each hundred households.
The rest are all Jin Wuwei's reserves.
It can be seen that they are extremely careful, because it is not yet bright, and there are always people holding torches to illuminate the shadows along the road.
Baihu [Yuan Chaozhong] had a solemn face, and his exposed skin looked like fish skin.
"Master Yuan, we are still fifty miles away from the Nu River. We have not seen any traces of demons for the time being. There should be no danger."
"Don't be careless."
Yuan Chaozhong shook his head and added: "We are temporarily transferring to the Nu River. On the one hand, the reservists need to use the rising tide of the Nu River to learn internal skills..."
The reservists have the qualifications for internal skills, but they have not yet started.
The conditions for practicing internal strength are all kinds of strange, just like the Corpse Transformation Sutra sealed in a coffin. While Hongzhou has more rivers, Jinwuwei mainly relies on the [Inspiration Sutra].
The unparalleled demon at the source of the Inspiration Sutra is a goldfish demon named the King of Inspiration.
Yuan Chaozhong paused for a moment, "On the other hand, tens of thousands of households have been ordered to investigate the Nujiang case. You and I must cooperate."
"The Nujiang case? It's been decades, and the two previous households of 10,000 have returned without success."
"Shut up."
Yuan Chaozhong said in a deep voice: "Although it is not clear whether Which Wanhu master has arrived, but it is definitely not something you and I can talk about."
"The Nujiang case is very involved, hey."
The reservists looked at each other.
Many of them were warriors and had never seen Wanhu before.
I heard that Wanhu’s magical abilities are enough to be called a land god! And all of them are elderly people in the country who are three or four hundred years old.
"Hmm?"
Yuan Chaozhong's consciousness suddenly palpitated, and he immediately left the team and looked back.
“Master Yuan, is there a demon?”
"Probably not, he happened to be a warrior on the same journey."
Yuan Chaozhong breathed a sigh of relief.
I saw a thin man following slowly a thousand meters away.
The man was wearing a bamboo hat and coir raincoat, his appearance could not be clearly seen, and at his waist was a three-foot Tang sword. He was indeed dressed as an ordinary person in the world.
He took a sip of wine from time to time, and there was a sleepy crow on his shoulder.
One of the Jinwu guards couldn't help but said: "Master Yuan, the monsters in the Nujiang area like to disguise themselves as mortals. Could it be that they are disguised as monsters?"
As soon as these words came out, the other reservists couldn't help but become nervous.
Yuan Chaozhong shook his head and responded: "The Qi and blood are not obvious. He is just a Lianjiazi from the Fourth Realm of Foundation Establishment. It doesn't hurt to let him go with us."
He looked weird.
Mainly because of the comfort shown by the man, it didn’t look like he was in the wilderness at all, but rather he felt like a wandering scholar out for an outing.
"Let's travel as quickly as possible. After all, there are a lot of reserves, and I'm afraid there will be monsters attracted."
"Yes."
The whip was whipped, and the horses strode away panting heavily.
Half a day later, they vaguely heard the sound of turbulent water, and they suddenly became energetic and their own internal energy became active.
“Stop!”
Yuan Chaozhong noticed something was wrong and raised his hand to stop the convoy.
He noticed a series of footprints on the ground not far away. At first glance, they seemed to be left by straw sandals, but there were a few tufts of yellowish animal hair mixed in the soil.
“Cheer up, everyone, the closer you are to the town, the more careful you must be!”
“Yuan...Master Yuan, the magic talisman is spontaneously burning!”
The reservists are nervous Pointing to the bushes, Yuan Chaozhong's pupils narrowed.
It was extremely dark among the trees, but there stood a 1.23 meter weird man.
The weird man is obviously a monster. His head is tilted, his facial features have an indescribable appearance of happiness, and his smooth head is dotted with six ring scars.
"Official...Official, hey, do you think I look like a human being?"
The monster grinned, and the sharp teeth exposed were stained with blood.
“Bold monster!”
Yuan Chaozhong's pupils shrank when he saw the monster's appearance. He did not hesitate to pull out the sword from his waist. His internal energy surged, and fish scales covered the blade. At the same time, organs similar to fish gills grew out of his neck.
Everyone retreated to the carriage, guarded by ten households and waiting in strict formation.
“A little monster who has been practicing for forty or fifty years.”
“But the monsters in Nujiang are so damn evil, they all have the same face.”
Yuan Chaozhong Signing for the two Juhu to surround him, he came within half a meter of the monster, opened his mouth and spat out a piece of scale, and slashed at the monster with his knife edge.
The scales penetrated the monster's arms, and two Juhu prevented the monster from escaping.
A man and a monster passed each other, and the monster's back was exposed to everyone's eyes.
It can be seen that only the monster's hands, feet and head are in human form. Under the shabby clothes is a body covered with animal hair. It is clearly a weasel.
“Death!”
Yuan Chaozhong was prepared and put the demon subduing talisman on the monster’s forehead.
He resisted the erosion of the demonic energy entering his body, raised his knife and cut off the monster's head, which was 70-80% similar to the monk's head.
"Huh, get rid of the remaining evil spirit and stay away as soon as possible..."
He hasn't finished speaking yet.
"Guardian, where are you looking at us?!"
The trees in all directions revealed pairs of red eyes, the unique smell of weasels spread, and there were more than a dozen monsters. .
"Get out of the car and form a formation!!!"
Yuan Chaozhong cursed a few times, and everyone quickly held their weapons in hand. However, the reservists who had never faced a demon couldn't help but turn pale.
"Official~"
The monster climbed out of the bushes.
More than a dozen weasel demons have different walks of life, but they have the same face of a blessed monk. There was saliva dripping from the corners of their mouths, and they were as cunning as ordinary people. The previous monster was obviously used to test Yuan Chaozhong's strength.
Realizing that he had swallowed a big fish, he couldn't wait to surround and suppress the crowd.
"Eat...eat them, and you will...become more like a human being."
The leading weasel has been practicing Taoism for hundreds of years, and has no hair on his chest, and his appearance and body shape have become closer to that of a...monk.
The knuckles of Yuan Chaozhong’s right hand that gripped the handle of the knife turned white.
He knew that he was probably going to have to explain here today that the monster with a hundred years of Taoism was extremely difficult to deal with. At the same time, because of his greedy nature, the weasel monster probably would not let everyone present.
"Listen."
"I will try my best to entangle the century-old monsters and make them throw rat weapons. When the time comes, you will break out in the direction of Nujiang Town, as many as you can."< br>
“But...”
“There is nothing but!”
Yuan Chaozhong's symptoms worsened all over his body, and fish-like films appeared on his five fingers.
"Beast! Come on!! Let me see how much you weigh!!!"
"Ah~ It's a cool autumn day~"
Myna flapped its wings and flew over, landing on a tree branch not far from Yuan Chaozhong, looking at it playfully and shaking its head.
I don’t know when.
The man who was suspected to be a martial artist had already arrived in the circle surrounded by monsters.
The smell of alcohol spread. It was obvious that the man was drunk and did not notice the monster in front of him, so he strayed into a dangerous situation.
“Damn it.”
Yuan Chaozhong bit the tip of his tongue and was so stunned that his internal energy stopped running. The century-old monster immediately noticed his fleeting flaw.
After all, I have been in office for thirty years, how could I make the mistake of not caring about the beginning and the end?
Originally there was still a glimmer of hope, but now they have to die in the hands of monsters.
The century-old monster pounces on Yuan Chaozhong.
"Ha..."
The man yawned and stretched just in time to stop the century-old monster.
The hundred-year-old monster took advantage of its bite, intending to tear off an arm of the bloodless creature first, but the flesh and blood of this person was loose and the taste must be...
Click click click.
The sound of broken teeth came from the mouth of the century-old monster.
The man's arm did not move at all, but the century-old monster hit it hard. He whimpered and his neck folded ninety degrees.
It feels like a bug hitting a mountain.
Everyone's expressions were in disbelief. They never thought that things would turn out to be a turn for the worse.
"Have you tasted enough?"
Shen Lian chuckled. Just as the century-old monster was about to escape, he found that the arms in his mouth were swelling, and the rock-hard muscles stretched open the upper and lower jaws, and even the skull was overwhelmed. .
“Eat, I let you eat, eat more and don’t stop!”
Bang.
The skull of the century-old monster was shattered, and the headless body was twitching.
The other monsters were in a dilemma for a while.
"What the hell is going on in Nujiang Town? The monsters look really weird."
Shen Lian looked at the monsters one after another, and when he saw that the monsters had almost the same face, his first reaction was that they were related to Tang Monk .
The monster looks so... Tang Seng, which fits my understanding of Tang Seng very well.
According to the clues Li Shun searched in advance, almost all the monsters within Nujiang Town looked like monks when transformed into human forms.
And it's not just monsters.
In the past ten years in Nujiang Town, even ordinary people have become "Tang Monk".
No wonder the Nujiang case, which only loses dozens of boys and girls every year, has attracted the attention of the imperial court and dispatched tens of thousands of families more than once.
“This [anthropomorphic] peculiarity has absolutely nothing to do with Chen Guangrui.”
Shen Lian looked at the corpse, but there was no useful information.
[Centennial Weasel]
[It comes from around the main reaches of the Nu River and has been around for hundreds of years. Its flesh is fishy and sour when alive. It can be eaten after death by bleeding it. 】
After the monster discovered that it had kicked the iron plate, it fled from the official road in panic.
Yuan Chaozhong stared at Shen Lian with fear. The latter's figure soared to more than two meters, and his terrifying aura made even him tremble.
Who is it? ! !
Yuan Chaozhong's clothes were soaked with sweat, and he was even more nervous than facing the monster.
Poof.
Shen Lian opened his mouth and spit.
The official road whipped up a strong wind out of thin air, and more than a dozen reservists were caught off guard.
Yuan Chaozhong noticed with his spiritual consciousness that what Shen Lian spit out turned out to be an inner elixir. Yes, it was an inner elixir that was the foundation of spiritual practice.
"He..."
The inner alchemy penetrated through the big trees, and the weeds were uprooted by the aftermath.
As Yuan Chaozhong watched in astonishment, Neidan chased after monsters one after another. As soon as they came into contact, the monsters turned into minced meat without exception.
"Why, how could someone use the inner elixir to kill demons and eliminate demons!!!"
Yuan Chaozhong noticed keenly that Shen Lian's inner elixir seemed to be the strength of a warrior?
He immediately gave up the idea because he had never heard of the existence of a Yuan Dan warrior, let alone that the other party could easily destroy demons with the inner elixir.
Shen Lian recovered the inner elixir of Yunling.
He was a little surprised. He just wanted to test the effect of the sword pill with a low-grade monster, and it turned out that it was indeed more powerful than imagined.
“No way.”
“It’s still not advisable to bully others because they have a weak demon spirit, and use the inner elixir as a sword pill. Well, at most, you have a bit of a sword fairy demeanor.”
Ba Ge seemed to understand what Shen Lian was thinking, his eyes full of contempt.
Where does the sword fairy demeanor come from?
Use the inner elixir to pierce through the monsters, and then take them back into your mouth.
It is clearly an act of demons!
