Chapter 169 Humanoid Weapons × Mountain Demon 7
The man raised his hand to wipe the sweat off his face and replied in a low voice.
"For the past month, it seems like a monster has appeared in our town. Every night, several people die."
"I'm just scared."
Tu Lu sniffed the fishy smell in the air and said, "It's too late."
Before the middle-aged man could react to what he said, there was a knock on the door.
"Can you open the door for me?" A hoarse voice came, as if someone was pinching the throat.
The man's movements suddenly stopped, cold sweat broke out all over his body, and he almost collapsed to the ground.
The scarlet blood outside the door began to gradually spread in through the crack in the door, and a fishy smell was getting closer and closer.
This made Liuyin frown slightly and quickly covered her nose with her hand.
Noticing her movements, Slaughter quickly protected her behind him and shouted to the man blocking the way, "Get out of the way."
In fact, even without him mentioning it, the man would avoid it, his legs would be too weak to walk and his mind would be blank.
With a loud bang outside, the door of the inn was shattered into pieces, and the man was knocked to the ground by the table. He covered his waist and groaned, but because of the fear in his heart, he could not make a sound.
In front of him was a familiar person, the owner of the noodle shop next door.
At this moment, his face was distorted, his limbs were drooping, and he roared at him, "You dare not open the door for me, wait and see how I will eat you."
Blood continued to fall from his limbs, landing on the ground and quickly spreading around.
After saying this, he seemed to have just noticed Liu Yin and Tu Lu standing there, and said with a sinister smile, "I didn't expect that there is still..."
He raised his droopy face, and when his eyes saw Tu Lu protecting Liu Yin, the rest of the words were stuck in his throat.
Those bloodshot eyes were filled with surprise. How could he be here?
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Tu Lu grabbed his throat and lifted him up.
"Please spare my life, sir. I will never dare to do it again."
The goblin wearing a human face had a pleading look on his face, but because of the ill-fitting human skin, he looked a little strange.
He is the monster from Wushan. He just found this small town not long ago where there are no other monsters and not many people are eaten.
Because there were no other monsters around, he was not in a hurry to eat. Unexpectedly, he would encounter slaughter here.
Tu Lu grabbed his neck with a cold expression. The unfinished words of the demon made him furious.
With a little force, Tu Lu threw his body aside.
Liuyin looked at the blood on his hands, took out a handkerchief and gently wiped it for him.
Noticing the fear on the innkeeper's face, Liuyin smiled slightly and explained softly.
"My husband is a demon catcher. When he encounters these monsters, he will naturally eliminate them for the people."
Before they left Wushan, the smell on their bodies was washed away by the Cloud Pool. Unless Tu Lu actively exuded the pressure of a great demon, no one would know that he was a demon.
"It seems you are a demon catcher." The middle-aged man raised his hand and pounded his feet. His legs were so weak that he couldn't get up.
Last month, a group of demon catchers came to their town and captured a willow demon.
The man's eyes fell on the corpse on the ground. Only a layer of empty skin was left, and a toad under the skin was trembling slightly.
"Isn't he dead yet?" the man asked in horror.
"Dead." Tu Lu said in a cold voice, and stepped back a little with the sound of flowing sound.
The middle-aged man finally breathed a sigh of relief, "It turns out to be a toad spirit."
"I'm sorry to have made you laugh. Since you are a distinguished demon catcher and saved my life, I definitely won't let you pay for my stay."
"The demon has been eliminated. Why don't you two stay with me for a few more days so that I can repay you for saving my life?"
Liu Yin smiled and replied, "Thank you very much."
The man gave them the best room, but since it was located in a remote area, the best he could offer was the best in town.
After the man brought Liuyin and Tu Lu into the room, he left first.
On the way back to his room, he felt something was wrong. He was not targeting the two guests who came last night, but the group of monster hunters who came last month.
A group of people stayed in his shop arrogantly, and were dissatisfied with everything including food, clothing, housing and transportation.
But they came here to get rid of monsters, and the boss could only smile and lower his head to endure their contempt. After all, everyone in this town was afraid of monsters.
He has lived here for decades, but this is the first time he has heard of monsters here.
But it was true that the group of demon catchers had some skills and caught a willow demon in front of everyone.
The willow tree grew by the lake. No one knew how long it had been alive, and the people in the town couldn't tell.
However, when the tree was set on fire that day, the willow tree finally turned into an old man with gray hair and beard, wearing green clothes.
He wanted to escape into the water, but the water had been sprinkled with salt by the demon hunters long ago. The amount was so large that the clear lake water actually had several other colors.
When the screams of pain rang out, they almost echoed throughout the entire town.
In the end, the willow spirit was taken away by the group of demon catchers.
The people in the small town of Xiao should be relieved, after all, the monster has been eliminated. But not long after the monster catchers left, people suddenly started dying in the town.
It continues to this day.
The innkeeper had never imagined that the monster they had been afraid of for a month would actually be a toad monster.
Seeing that Tu Lu could kill the monster with just one move, he began to have some doubts about the group of monster catchers before.
He opened the window upstairs and took a quick look. The group of demon catchers had captured the willow demon alive.
And since they left, the town has been harassed by monsters.
