The death of the Liu family father and daughter was like a bucket of cold water that woke Shen Yi up.
Don't leave any chances to chance!
They are not monsters that wander around the wilderness stupidly. They will stay in one place and wait to be harvested for experience points by the knights who come with them.
Just like what he did before, taking advantage of the connections left by his previous life, he took advantage of the demon's carelessness and suddenly attacked and killed it. This kind of thing is indeed very easy to do.
But it can't go on like this forever.
Those violent creatures also have emotions, and can also convey messages to each other, and the speed is much faster than one can imagine!
They knew that the black-skinned dog demon went to the Liu family, so how could they not know who it followed?
Every time a demon died, the remaining beasts would become more cruel and more vigilant. If the news of the ape demon's accident spread, the next one to ambush them might be a real big demon.
Shen Yi didn't want to live in fear every day.
He needs more demon lifespan.
Thinking of this, Shen Yi stood up and slowly walked out of the courtyard.
At this moment, many people were already standing on Liuye Street, all looking here from afar.
The police beat up the police. It was a rare and lively dog-eat-dog scene.
"Let them all go."
Shen Yi nodded his chin.
"I obey your command." Chen Ji clasped his fists and signaled the remaining people to untie them.
He looked away, and suddenly became conflicted. He gritted his teeth and took out an opened letter with blood on the cover: "Do you want to take a look... This just fell out of their bodies."
Shen Yi frowned, took the letter and slowly unfolded it.
There is only one sentence above.
"Come to Liulimiao Village. I have something to ask you."
It has no beginning or end, and there is not a single name written on it.
But based on Shen Yi's understanding of the group of dog demons, they are better at wielding swords than learning how to hold a pen.
The only one who could have such leisure and ease was the old dog who had no worries about food and drink, and among the ordinary servants, I was the only one who could have a relationship with the yellow-skinned man.
Chen Ji obviously saw the clues, so he hesitated whether to take it out: "What should I do? I definitely can't go, but if I ignore them, they will come to the city to find you... Or should I find the clerk?"
As everyone knows, Liu Dianli raised Shen Yi as his half-nephew.
With this relationship in place, as long as the other party is willing to speak, there is even a chance that the powerful martial artist in the county magistrate's office can be invited to plead with the demon.
"Hurry up, otherwise Liulimiao Village..." Chen Ji was a little anxious.
"Tsk." Zhang Pengtian staggered against the wall, spitting blood and laughing: "Liu Dianli has already informed you that you can't transfer any officials now, so just stay in the county. You are lucky that someone will protect your life. As for other cheap lives... bah... you have no ability to care about them."
Hearing this, Chen Ji's heart skipped a beat.
He subconsciously looked at the young man in front of him, but was immediately overwhelmed by a deep sense of powerlessness.
Even though Shen Yi's martial arts strength was far beyond his imagination, it was only limited to the scope of ordinary police officers. If he were to face the entire dog-demon force... Didn't you see the group of invited martial artists, each of them was an expert in slaying demons and eliminating evil? Now they can only stay in the county obediently.
At this moment, Chen Ji suddenly discovered that Shen Yi's tightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed.
"Master Shen..."
Shen Yi patted his shoulder and said, "Go back first."
I was originally worried that the demon was in the deep mountains where the terrain was steep and it would be extremely difficult to find it.
If you wait for the other party to come to you, it would be too passive.
Now that they want to talk, how can I miss such a good opportunity.
"…"
Shen Yi looked calm, but Chen Ji felt more and more uneasy the more he looked at her. He watched her walk away and subconsciously asked, "Are you going to leave the city?"
"Leave the city? I watched him climb all the way up from a scoundrel. Even when his mother was abducted by a demon, he didn't even bother to look at her. Why is he pretending to be a grandson now?"
Zhang Pengtian was supported by two subordinates, his Adam's apple rolled, and he spat a mouthful of thick phlegm onto the ground. "Bah!"
…
Outside Baiyun County.
A figure flashed by like an arrow breaking through the air, the treetops swayed slightly, and the birds were startled.
The Eight Steps of the Spirit Snake, which was originally just an ordinary martial art, could actually make a person's speed invisible to the naked eye when activated by the cultivation of the Five Apertures in the Initial Stage.
Not long after, Shen Yi saw the dilapidated little temple again.
He slowed down his pace and his breathing became even, showing no sign of having just been running at full speed.
On the ridges of the fields in Liulimiao Village, the villagers stopped their work and looked towards the figure with a sword at the entrance of the village.
Generally speaking, the arrival of the constables is almost equivalent to disaster.
Either it came from the police, or there was some demon causing trouble.
After seeing the visitor's face clearly, the villagers' numb expressions eased a little.
They still remembered the officer.
Last time, it was this other party who killed the dog demon with his own hands and did not collect any money when he left.
A little girl who had just learned to walk, wearing a funny, large, torn cloth, stumbled over, picked up the broken bowl in her hand, and said in a baby voice, "Master, drink some water."
Shen Yi touched the other person's head, took the broken bowl and drank it all.
As he put down the bowl, his eyes slowly turned to the mountain road on the other side.
As the saying goes, it is better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early...it was really a coincidence.
On the rugged mountain road, more than a dozen figures, two heads taller than ordinary people, were looming in the dense forest.
Under the tangled and sticky fur are well-proportioned and bulging muscles. They have ferocious faces and only wear a loincloth. They carry a huge sedan chair two meters high on their shoulders and walk on mountain roads as if they were walking on flat ground.
On that sedan chair, a body weighing at least 800 kilograms was lying leisurely.
Each layer of fat on his body was about two fingers wide and densely packed together like a mountain of flesh, making it hard to count how many layers there were.
The most eye-catching thing is its shiny dark yellow fur, which forms a sharp contrast with other dog monsters.
After a while, they carried the sedan chair and stopped at the entrance of the village.
The ragged Ni'er just reached out to take the broken bowl, and as she turned around, she fell on her butt.
All the expressions on her dirty face were frozen. She held her breath, bit her lips hard with her milk teeth, and her little body began to tremble uncontrollably.
Compared to the young girl, the other villagers seemed calmer... rather than calm, it was as if they were used to it.
They subconsciously looked towards the intersection.
There was only one officer there, with only a knife at his waist.
Behind the officers, the winding path seemed so silent. They waited for a long time but did not see any other figures appear.
The villagers seemed to understand something, and there was a hint of despair in their distracted eyes.
They all squatted down and hugged themselves tightly, neither crying nor running away.
Nier suddenly felt herself being covered by a tall shadow.
She looked up.
I saw the officer slowly walking past me, drawing the sword at his waist as he walked.
Until the long sword is completely unsheathed.
Shen Yi held his sword at an angle and stood in front of the huge sedan chair.
