After hearing Tang Shangning's introduction, everyone was full of praise for me. Even Bai Zhan looked towards me with a smile on his face.
Afterwards, Tang Shangning introduced me to the big guys in Lu Di one by one.
There were two masters, Fa Tong and Fa Neng from Lingyin Temple, Wuque Zhenren and Wuyan Zhenren from Laoshan Sect, and masters from Taishan Dai Temple. I followed Tang Shangning, and I felt like I was being taken care of by my parents. It’s like letting children know their elders.
As a junior, Master told me that no matter who I meet, I must be humble and polite and not be negligent. Naturally, I am polite to everyone.
After basically getting to know each other, Tang Shangning said to many experts in the yard: "Everyone, the reason for inviting everyone here this time is to deal with the evil water monster. Unless this thing is removed, peace will be rare on both sides of the Yellow River. This morning, I will Let the people from the special task force set up a large demon-suppressing array within fifty miles of waterways upstream and downstream to prevent the water demon from escaping this area. The water demon was seriously injured and will definitely come out for treatment within the next few days. I have already mobilized half of the demon demons. Special teams from Gelu are stationed in villages on both sides of the Yellow River. As long as there is some trouble with the water monster, it will soon reach our side. As soon as the water monster appears, you can follow me and destroy it. Water monster."
"But just listen to Director Tang's instructions. We will go all out to destroy the evil water demon." Taoist priest Wuque of the Laoshan sect said solemnly.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone responded one after another.
After this matter was arranged, the special team also prepared lunch for everyone to get together and chat.
During the meal, Tang Shangning even called me and asked me to sit at the same table with him.
The people eating at the same table as Tang Shangning were all big guys, including two masters from the Laoshan Sect, as well as Bai Zhan and a few other high-profile figures.
While eating and drinking, Tang Shangning deliberately asked me to make friends with these big guys and signaled me to toast them, which I did.
After drinking and eating, these experts were arranged to rest in various idle houses in the village.
When I was about to leave, Tang Shangning stopped me, patted my shoulder, and said with a smile: "Xiao Jie, the people who came here to get rid of the water monsters today are all top-notch masters in Lu Di, especially the one named Bai Zhan's is the one with the highest cultivation level among this group of people. If you follow him more in the future, he might be able to help you a lot in the future. Uncle Tang can only help you so far."
To be honest, I am a bit socially anxious and don't like to make friends. I only like to make friends with people I can talk to.
If I were asked to pat him and hug him, I really wouldn't be able to do it.
Maybe the sloppy Taoist priest can do it. He is shameless and will trick anyone he catches. I am not as thick-skinned as him.
I smiled awkwardly and said to Tang Shangning: "Uncle Tang, you shouldn't have talked about my dealing with the water demon in front of so many people. It's so embarrassing. You must also know my situation. There's something inside me." Eight-tailed fox, if he hadn’t helped me, even a hundred of them wouldn’t have been able to hurt Shuiba.”
"What are you kid afraid of? Don't care what the reason is. You were the one who severely injured the water demon. If others want to catch the eight-tailed fox in their body, he can't catch it. Even if we eat soft food, we have to be tough. The eight-tailed fox is also yours." Part of the strength." Tang Shangning said seriously.
Hearing what he said made me feel even worse.
Good guy, I'm really tired of that sloppy Taoist priest. Ever since he called me a soft rice king, hell, the whole world is about to know that I'm a soft rice guy.
What can I do?
I was born to eat this kind of food, and it’s not something I can decide. I have a bad stomach, so I can only drink some water.
After chatting with Tang Shangning for a few more words, I returned to my residence by myself, planning to catch up on some more sleep. There might be a big fight at night.
At this time, I was a little worried that my wife was getting up.
Last night she suddenly exerted her power and used her demonic power to bless my cultivation.
This period of time is the critical moment for her to digest the five hundred years of rat spirit and demon essence. Such a delay will probably mean that she will be delayed for a while, and it may also cause some damage to her recovery.
No, no, I'm still too weak. When I become stronger in the future, I will definitely protect her.
After I went back, I slept for a while. When I opened my eyes again, it was almost dark.
Not long after, someone from the special team came over and invited me to have dinner, but I refused. I felt that I was not hungry just after eating, so I sat on the bed and practiced for a while, recovering my body and allowing myself to Maintain it at its peak.
I always feel that something important may happen tonight.
Unexpectedly, I actually said it.
When I woke up from my practice state, I looked at the time and saw that it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.
The village was very quiet, except for the occasional barking of dogs.
I was sitting alone in the room in a daze, but I always felt a little uneasy and restless.
After another hour or so, suddenly there was a continuous sound of footsteps in the yard.
"Brother Wu Jie, something happened. Director Tang is calling you." Before the person reached the yard, he heard the man shouting anxiously.
I quickly stood up and looked into the yard, but I saw Director Tang's assistant walking over and said breathlessly: "Brother Wu Jie, the water demon has appeared!"
"Where?" I asked quickly, my heart tightening.
"There are traces of Shuiba stationed in Jiazhuang Village, which is more than ten miles away from here. I heard that she killed more than a dozen people in one go. Even three members of the special team died. Director Tang was greeting people. Go over there." The man said anxiously.
"Let's go." I greeted and followed the man towards where Tang Shangning lived.
Unexpectedly, he met Tang Shangning with a solemn expression on the way.
He glanced at me and said directly: "Get in the car with me."
So, I got into Tang Shangning's car, and there were two people from the Yanbei Special Task Force in the car.
The whole village suddenly became lively, with the roar of car engines everywhere.
At one time, seven or eight vehicles left Songwang Village and drove quickly towards Jiazhuang Village.
The two villages are not very far apart, only a dozen miles away.
In less than half an hour, we arrived at Jiazhuang Village.
At the entrance of the village, people from the special task force stationed here came to pick us up.
A man covered in blood burst into tears when he saw Tang Shangning: "Director Tang, the water demon has appeared, and three people from our special team died..."
"Where's Shuiba?" Tang Shangning asked.
"After she committed the murder, she escaped into the water and disappeared. She probably didn't run far away." The man continued crying.
"Take us to see those people who were killed." Tang Shangning hurriedly walked toward the village.
