Chapter 330: Follow the procedure or kill directly? [4800 words two-in-one]
"Strange?" Li Chu asked, "What's weird?"
"It's weird because... it was so calm the whole time, but in the blink of an eye it started to boil, and then a woman's head popped out, with her flowing hair like kelp in a hot pot..."
Chen Huaji recalled the scene, and for some reason, his face suddenly turned red as he spoke, "That woman had a beautiful face, fiery red lips, and a plump chest..."
"Then what?"
Seeing that he was about to go off topic, Li Chu tried to correct him.
"After the chest, it must be the waist. She happened to be wearing a waist-revealing dress. That snow-white waist is absolutely amazing! After the waist, it must be..."
Chen Huaji was talking excitedly when he suddenly caught sight of Li Chu staring at him. He immediately realized that the "then" Li Chu wanted to hear might not be the "then" he was talking about...
He quickly put on a stern face and continued, "Besides this woman, there were other people coming in from the cave entrance one after another. I had been hiding underground and observing with my spiritual sense. Later, more people came in, so I didn't even dare to use my spiritual sense. I could only eavesdrop vaguely, and I didn't dare to reveal my body shape."
Li Chu nodded. Chen Huaji's approach was correct. This guy was good at escaping, and he was so cautious. No wonder nothing happened to him even in a dangerous place.
Chen Huaji continued:
"Then the beauty came out of the water..."
"She also said, 'That fairy is really powerful. I was caught off guard and fell into her trap.'"
"Others said, 'If we can just catch her, we'll have accomplished our mission.'"
"Some people even asked her, 'Why are you so careless'?"
"She responded with something like, 'You are a piece of shit with zero and four and you still have the nerve to yell.'"
"The man whispered, 'I'm just asking, I don't mean anything else. Stop scolding, please...' and so on. It sounded very aggrieved."
"Later, I heard them say that they would put the captured person into the furnace to make medicine in three days. I guess they were doing some kind of evil blood sacrifice. There were more and more people there, and I didn't dare to hide any longer, so I left quietly. After leaving the Demon Shadow Cave, I didn't even go back to the station. I rushed all the way to find you."
Li Chu's eyes were firm. "If a living person is captured for sacrifice, we must rescue him."
"Master Li never lets me down." Seeing Li Chu offering to help, Chen Huaji immediately said, "You are truly a combination of kindness and chivalry, the embodiment of wisdom and beauty..."
"Wait a moment, I'll be leaving soon."
Li Chu stopped listening to him and turned around and walked to the backyard.
Lao Du has been stuck in the house for too long, we need to take him out and move around.
When going out on a mission, it is necessary to have someone who knows you well to help you. Although there are many living things in Deyun Temple now, there are not many for Li Chu to choose from.
Although the little koi has invincible luck, it lacks substantial fighting means after all...and its intelligence level has always been questionable.
Wanli Feisha can only run away, and its effect is limited...
The fox girl was indeed of high quality, and had accompanied Li Chu on a journey before. But she had recently gone to school, so it was not convenient for her to travel far.
Between Lao Du and Xiao Feilong...
Although Lao Du's various indicators were a little weak, he gained a lot of points by being able to speak human language, and defeated the little fat dragon who could only make "嗐嗐嗐".
…
After leaving Deyun Temple, Chen Huaji whistled and called down a large bird with blue feathers from the sky. This was a local magical bird he bought in Tiannan Province, and he relied on it to travel between the two provinces.
The three of them climbed onto the bird's back, and although it was a bit strenuous, they still took off slowly. Anyway, the Demon Shadow Cave would not be approached until night, so there was no need to rush.
"That's it."
After flying for a while, Chen Huaji pointed with his hand, and the bird landed in a mountain. A silver-banded river could be vaguely seen winding through the mountain, and the three of them landed there.
"The Demon Shadow Cave is on the opposite hillside."
Chen Huaji stood in the bushes and looked left and right. "Let's find a good place to hide and wait for night to fall."
Lao Du also knows that his responsibility as an assistant is to solve all worries for the master so that the master can focus on dealing with evil spirits.
So he looked around carefully, thought for a moment, and asked, "Young Master Chen, the Demonic Shadow Cave you mentioned...huh?"
When he turned around, he found that Chen Huaji had disappeared before he finished speaking.
Li Chu knew Chen Huaji's temper. After all, it was not the first day they worked together. Moreover, he had the ability of mind-seeing and could sense Chen Huaji's aura.
He pointed to a tree nearby and said, "Chen Huaji is over there."
"Oh." Lao Du nodded and asked the tree, "Young Master Chen, is the Demon Shadow Cave you mentioned wet?"
As expected, Chen Huaji's voice rang out from the tree: "This place is close to the river, there is also groundwater, and the soil is quite moist."
"Okay," Lao Du nodded and said, "It's dark and damp, so there must be many snakes and insects. There are also many poisonous insects in southern Xinjiang, so we have to be on guard. Come, Master, sprinkle some insect repellent powder on your body."
Li Chu nodded.
After a while, Lao Du suddenly turned back and asked the tree: "Young Master Chen..."
"He's there." Li Chu suddenly pointed to the stone next to him.
"Ah?" Lao Du looked at the bluestone.
As expected, Chen Huaji's voice came from above: "Yes, Taoist Du. It will be safer to change positions regularly."
"Okay, I want to ask..." Lao Du asked again: "Is the Demon Shadow Cave you mentioned narrow?"
"Hmm?" Chen Huaji was puzzled by his question, but he still answered: "Last time I sneaked in underground, and didn't pay much attention. But... it seems to be quite narrow, probably only one person can pass through."
"Oh, this is not good. Only one person can pass, so Master must walk in front, and I will have to cover the rear. If there is danger behind, I may not be able to resist. If Master turns around and draws his sword, I may block him. Master, how about this, let's discuss it. Once there is danger behind, I will shout and lie on the ground immediately, and you don't have to worry about me and just draw your sword."
Lao Du pondered for a long time and then continued.
"Okay." Li Chu agreed.
After a while, Lao Du asked again: "Where are you, Young Master Chen?"
"I'm still here." Chen Huaji's voice came from the bluestone again.
"Eh?" Lao Du was puzzled, "Why didn't you change your position this time?"
"It's hard to guess why it changes sometimes and doesn't change sometimes." Chen Huaji said with a grin.
Dulanke added: "I want to ask, is it hot in the Demon Shadow Cave you mentioned?"
“…”
This time Chen Huaji was silent for a while before answering: "Master Du, this Demon Shadow Cave you are asking about... is it serious?"
Li Chu ignored their strange conversation and used his mind-eye technique to monitor the surrounding situation.
In an instant, the "Qi" within a radius of dozens of miles was in sight.
As the saying goes, Southern Xinjiang has been an evil place since ancient times, and it is indeed true.
As far as he could see, there were at least dozens of monsters. However, these monsters were still lurking in the forest, so he had no intention of attacking them.
At this moment, several strong auras suddenly erupted in the distance, which seemed to be mixed with something familiar, attracting his attention.
…
boom--
A huge hand suddenly emerged from the ground.
A black light like lightning flashed in front of him and passed through the gap between the five fingers of his palm, narrowly avoiding the grasp.
But this is just the beginning.
In just a moment, behind this giant palm, another equally huge palm suddenly appeared, more than ten feet long and nearly ten feet wide, pressing down like an overwhelming force.
And there are five palms like this this time! Bang——
The giant palm landed with a bang. The black lightning flashed past the first and second strikes, but it still couldn't dodge the third strike and was slammed to the ground. The fourth palm fell heavily right after, and then the fifth palm...
"Thousand-Handed Demon! Stop fighting! Stop fighting!"
An anxious shout rang out in the sky, "If you hit it again, it will be killed. This black-light mink must be kept alive!"
A figure hurriedly fell down and revealed itself to be the Medicine Master Demon.
In the field where the smoke and dust had dispersed, there stood a figure who looked like a teenager with a defiant look on his face.
He was wearing a strange outfit that looked like a piece of gold and silk, with bare shoulders and arms. At this time, in addition to a pair of hands, there were six arms extending from his back! One of them was several times larger than the others, and was holding a small black beast, which was already dying.
"Shut up, I don't need you to teach me how to do things." The Thousand-Handed Demon glanced at the Medicine Master Demon with disdain, "How can we capture it if we don't beat it half to death?"
"Is it half dead?" The Medicine Master Demon was also quite indignant. "There is only this black light marten in a radius of dozens of miles. If you kill it, it will delay the preparation of the resurrection medicine. When the city lord blames it, who will bear the responsibility?"
"Of course it's you, a piece of trash." The Thousand-Handed Demon spat out a few words coldly, "Zero and four..."
"Enough!" The Medicine Master Demon was so anxious that he almost jumped up.
Those who were born in the Demonic Land naturally don't have a good temper. Except for the Bone Demon who has restrained himself a little, the others have been mocking the Medicine Demon these days, and he is also very angry.
"I've explained it so many times, it's not my fault, it's the little Taoist priest who targeted me..." He was furious.
"Come on." The Thousand-Handed Demon sneered, "We all think that it's not certain whether there is such a little Taoist priest. Extremely handsome...extremely powerful...and extremely young...where can such a person exist in the world? Such a person stares at you every day? Maybe you just made up such a person to cover up your incompetence!"
"Bullshit! Why would I make up a person to deceive you? You are spreading rumors! I can sue you!"
“Haha.” The Thousand-Handed Demon waved his hands. “Is it possible that you were killed four times by the same person and you still don’t know who he is? You should find him out. If you really find him, I will kill him alone to avenge you. Can you do that?”
“You…you…”
The Medicine Master Demon pointed at the Thousand-Handed Demon and wanted to spit back, but he felt powerless to say anything.
When I was doing zero and four, my breathing was wrong.
After a long pause, he stamped his feet and snatched the black mink.
"Give me the Black Light Sable, I won't go with you anymore!" he shouted angrily.
Unexpectedly, the Black Light Sable suddenly opened its eyes as soon as it was in his hands. The little beast, which had just looked like it was dying, suddenly burst out with great strength.
It was because the Medicine Master Demon's cultivation was not as strong as before at this time, and he was unable to subdue it. Instead, it bit him on the wrist, causing him to cry out.
Whoosh.
The little beast turned into a black light again and flew out.
“You…” The Thousand-Handed Demon’s eyes suddenly widened.
"Hurry up and chase him!" The Medicine Master Demon also glared at the other party and stopped him from swearing.
Just as the two were in a panic, a flaming meteor fell from the sky.
boom--
"Huh?" Yao Shi Mo blinked, "This flame...why does it look familiar?"
Then, Li Chu walked out from the smoke and dust.
He felt the demonic energy emitted by the Medicine Master Demon and the Thousand-Handed Demon while they were chasing the Black Light Sable, and felt vaguely familiar with it, so he came to confirm it.
The Medicine Master Demon's face was full of surprise.
There was no defense, no worries.
You appear like this again...
Li Chu looked at the Pharmacist Demon opposite him and was also a little surprised.
It really was him.
How many times has this happened? It seems that I will definitely run into him whenever I come to Southern Xinjiang.
Why do we always meet in this big world?
Is it fate? Is it God's will? The man and the demon looked at each other, confirming their gaze.
The Thousand-Handed Demon was caught off guard, but he had heard the Medicine Master Demon's description of the young Taoist priest who killed him several times before. When he saw Li Chu's face, he immediately recognized half of it.
Extremely handsome...
Looking at the expression of Medicine Demon again, it seems that the other half has also come to terms with it.
So he asked, "Is this the little Taoist priest who killed you?"
"Yes." Yao Shimo nodded and came back to his senses.
He was very panicked at first, but then he thought... I've already got zero points and four points, what am I afraid of? On the contrary, the Thousand-Handed Demon beside him has never died, and he always stands there and makes sarcastic remarks. This time, let him see the strength of the little Taoist priest, I believe he will be much quieter in the future.
See if you can scold me again in the future? Thinking of this, Yaoshi Mo showed a smug smile on his face.
Li Chu looked at his weird smile and couldn't help but fall into deep thought. The price of his resurrection... could it be his IQ?
Then, the Medicine Master Demon smiled proudly and said to the Thousand Hands Demon: "Don't you believe that this little Taoist priest exists? Go and beat him up, go ahead."
"Um?"
The Thousand Hands Demon was stunned, not understanding why the Medicine Master Demon was so arrogant all of a sudden...
No matter how strong this little Taoist priest is... why are you so proud?
"Oh, you are so good every day, criticizing this and that, as if you are so great. Go ahead, go and kill him alone. When you come back, I will call you daddy."
The Medicine Master hugged his shoulders, curled his lips, shook his legs, and tapped the ground rhythmically with his left foot.
It's like a little fox with a big tiger standing in front of it.
The Thousand-Handed Demon silently cursed him as a psycho in his heart and turned his eyes to Li Chu.
Although I couldn't feel his cultivation level, but judging from the fact that the Medicine Master Demon lost his mind on the spot as soon as he landed, this little Taoist priest was definitely not simple.
Then the Thousand-Handed Demon raised his hands, made a seal, and said with a warning: "Don't ask for trouble."
Li Chu also drew his sword.
Since this person is standing with the Medicine Master Demon, he is probably not a good person. Li Maoqing said before that there are eight demons in Luxian City, and he might be one of them.
The words of the Medicine Master Demon over there further confirmed his guess.
The Medicine Master Demon shook his shoulders and said, "Little Taoist priest, you'd better kill him with your sword. He is a wicked fellow, much worse than me! I only make medicine for people for a year or two, but this fellow has thousands of hands, and each of them is taken from others! Everyone whose hands he takes will be tortured to death by him! You see, he didn't say anything, which means he agreed."
"Shut up!" The Thousand-Handed Demon could no longer bear it and shouted angrily.
"What? You don't dare to admit it in front of the young Taoist priest?" The Medicine Master Demon was very proud.
"What am I afraid to admit?!" the Thousand-Handed Demon said angrily, "Not only have I killed thousands of people and robbed thousands of hands, I am also going to kill that little Taoist priest and rob his hands too! Just wait and see if you don't believe me!"
"Yo yo yo, it's urgent."
The two people were fighting back and forth in a passionate confrontation.
Li Chu heard it clearly, it was obvious that there was an internal conflict on the other side. The attention of the two people was no longer on him, so he just pushed them over.
Then he raised his sword.
"roar--"
A red dragon roared out!
Hearing the sound of breaking wind, the Thousand-Handed Demon truly realized the seriousness of the problem. But it was too late to say anything now. He clenched his hands into seals and shouted, "Block!"
Bang——
Amidst the explosions, thousands of arms appeared out of thin air! Not only were they human arms, but many were also the front claws of wild beasts. What they all had in common was that they were all strong and powerful! Thousands of hands instantly formed an extremely solid shield!
Compared with it, the mighty red dragon seems to be a little smaller.
but……
boom--
Melts at the touch.
The Red Dragon instantly melted all the arms, along with the Thousand-Handed Demon's figure, turning them into a black shadow under the bright sun and destroying them in less than half a second.
The smoke cleared.
"Tsk, it breaks at the slightest touch." The Medicine Master Demon snorted with disdain.
After mocking him, he looked up at Li Chu and praised him: "Good kill, young Taoist priest."
"Thank you." Li Chu thanked him politely.
Then……
The atmosphere quieted down for a moment.
Yaoshi Mo slowly raised his head again, as if he realized what was waiting for him next. But after going through so many times, he was no longer the young and naive person he was before.
The Medicine Master Demon opened his arms wide, like a hero ready to die bravely.
"Come on, do you want to follow the procedure or just kill directly?"
