Chapter 254 The Mysterious Swordsman

"The Six Gates are coming!"

Someone on the river bank shouted loudly, and people immediately retreated frantically. They were so crowded that there was almost a stampede.

The crowd retreated in chaos, but fortunately no major problems occurred, and some personnel from the yamen were assigned to maintain order.

The wretched figure from the Six Gates couldn't help but frown as he looked at the scattered demon corpses scattered on the ground and the simple, bright knife marks on the demon corpses.

"How long have we been here?"

An old captain looked at the weather and the situation at hand and said, "About half an incense stick of time."

It took only half an incense stick of time to get from the city to the outskirts of the city, which was considered extremely fast.

They didn't start their journey the moment a monster appeared. Someone had to go to the city to report the news. After reporting, they had to verify the authenticity of the news, then bring equipment, gather people, notify the county government, and equip themselves with the appropriate monster-killing tools...

After going through such a long process, it only took half an incense stick of time to arrive here, which can be said to be as fast as lightning.

But at this time, there was not much movement in the center of the river. After the Six Gates and the Yamen blocked the area, they questioned several people who were closest to the place.

"About how long ago did you discover the unusual movement in the river?"

"Less than an incense stick of time."

"When will the unusual movement in the river stop?"

"More than half an incense stick of time."

The leading Six Gates Bronze Medal Constable had already frowned.

He glanced at the eight demon bodies scattered around, and his brows furrowed even deeper.

At this time, a person in the Six Gates who was specifically responsible for determining the level of demons whispered beside him: "Almost all of them have entered the realm of true essence, and the strongest is at the peak of true essence. Not only that, that crocodile has some dragon bloodline and a strong physique, comparable to ordinary demons flying far away.

"Also, the golden eel next to it also possesses some super bloodline. The knife fish and alligator snapping turtle next to it also have some alien bloodline. They are not ordinary monsters..."

After speaking for a long time, the person who was responsible for determining the level of monsters added a sentence with sweat on his forehead.

"Given this being's state and strength, killing us might be easier than killing demons..."

Many people from the Six Gates were silent for a moment. The bronze captain who was leading the group ordered a captain from the Six Gates next to him to report the case and transfer higher-level personnel.

Before he came, he had tried to overestimate the impact and threat of this incident, but after arriving at the scene, he found that he had still greatly underestimated it.

"My Lord, these two have seen the whole picture."

"One of them even drew some traces of the battle."

A captain of the Six Gates brought Yang You and a young man to his side.

The Bronze Medal Constable recognized the young man leading the group at a glance. He was the son of a captain in the city defense army of Jiujiang County.

Unfortunately, he was not very good at martial arts and did not follow the same path as his father. He basically wandered around the city every day, playing with his birds and fishing, and was considered a well-known playboy.

Of course, he didn't do much evil.

But when this playboy presented the battle scene he had just recorded, the captain of the Six Gates couldn't even twitch his mouth.

In the picture, the dandy young man was holding a wooden sword in one hand, slashing at the giant crocodile that was nearly ten meters long at an angle. A huge knife wound was left on the crocodile's head, making it unable to move when lying on the ground. The bodies of demons were scattered all around it.

Combined with the young man's spotless clothing and robes, and his aloof movements, he has a very cool and aloof demeanor.

But this bronze-medal constable knew very well how powerful the young man in front of him was. When he saw this scene, his cheeks twitched twice.

He brought along a professional painter and saw the scene of demon slaying firsthand. As a result, he just drew a pretentious picture and did nothing else. Only a playboy would do such a thing.

He felt a headache just watching it. If he had brought professional recorders to the scene, he would have been able to draw the corresponding demon's death scene and its unique moves as soon as possible.

At the same time, the fluctuations in the water by the river must be strictly recorded. According to the descriptions of several witnesses later, every time the water surface fluctuated and became a ball, a demon was usually about to die.

This is the most important detail in the entire battle.

It's nothing like what I'm doing now, where I just draw a pretentious picture.

But after taking a look, the bronze-medal captain of the Jinyiwei felt something was wrong.

It was obvious that the dandy young man had only achieved the goal of strengthening his muscles and bones with the help of his family, and had not even completed the first marrow cleansing and blood transfusion. But when he stood on the crocodile's back with his long sword pointing diagonally, he naturally had a unique charm.

He seemed to be a real martial arts master, and the delicate and short long sword and the sword energy of the crocodile's wound seemed to have a faint resonance.

Frowning, the bronze captain asked, "Where did you get the wooden sword?"

The dandy young man didn't need to answer, as someone nearby stepped forward.

"That wooden sword is mine. I carve it for fun."

The bronze captain raised his eyebrows and looked at Yang You next to him. When he took a look, a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.

He also recognized this civilian. This was the Green Gang worker who had reported the case that morning and caused a big fuss among even the Embroidered Uniform Guards. If he remembered correctly, his name was Yang You.

He started shouting in the morning that he had hit something and his luck had been taken away by a demon, but after a group of people from the Jinyiwei and the Liushenmen checked, they found that he had taken nothing.
