The girl received permission and continued her story.
"When we went out, we saw a figure as tall as a house. It had the head of a wolf and would kill anyone it saw."
After sobbing a few times, the girl continued:
"In order to protect me, my parents used their bodies to cover me before they died. My brother..."
"In order to lure the monster away, he was torn into two pieces by the wolf."
After listening to the girl's description, Zhang Kang looked very ugly. He knew that these were the things that officials would not believe the most.
If Wucheng was furious because of the girl's words, he would have to bear the consequences.
However, to his surprise, Wu Cheng was not only lifeless, but also looked extremely heavy. He immediately ordered Wanda behind him:
"Commander Wan, please return to Xueye City quickly and bring two hundred shadow guards with you. Let's go meet the wolf demon together."
After hearing this, Wanda was obviously stunned for a moment, but then she followed the order and left.
Zhang Kang was also puzzled. He had been an official for decades and had never seen any rumors about monsters, but he had heard a lot about them.
He has handled several cases before, all of which were caused by warlocks who claimed to be able to subjugate demons and eliminate demons. In the end, those who had been defrauded of their money sued him.
And after those people were caught, they all admitted that they were liars, so Zhang Kang didn't believe in any monsters at all.
But what he didn't expect was that Lord Wu, a fourth-rank official, would believe such a thing.
On the other side, the girl looked a little shocked when she saw that Mr. Wu actually believed her words, and then immediately knelt down to thank her.
"Thank you Lord Wu. As long as you kill the wolf demon, my little girl is willing to serve Lord Wu as a slave for the rest of her life."
After hearing this, Wu Cheng's face suddenly turned cold, and he said displeasedly: "It is our unshakable responsibility to eliminate harm for the people. Girls, don't take it to heart."
Nanguang County is two hundred miles away from Xueye City, and a good horse can reach it in an hour at full gallop.
In the afternoon, Wanda came to the county government office with a total of two hundred shadow guards.
The Shadow Guards are the strongest guards in the Wu Mansion. They are all fully armed and look solemn. Just by standing in front of the county government office, they have the feeling of intimidating everyone.
Seeing this scene, the young woman finally showed joy on her face. There should be hope for the revenge of her parents, brother and the entire village.
"Magistrate Zhang, allocate all your manpower and launch a blanket search around Guantian Village. Once any trace is found, use the smoke as a signal."
After Wu Cheng quickly gave the order, Magistrate Zhang also gathered dozens of people and rushed to Guantian Village in a hurry.
All the guards were in groups of two, one holding a torch and the other carrying mugwort, ready to send out the signal as soon as the wolf demon was discovered.
Beside Wu Cheng, Wanda and the young woman were checking the situation in the village, and suddenly they saw billowing black smoke rising from the sky in the distance.
The three of them looked at each other, mounted their horses and hurried towards the place where the smoke was rising.
The horse galloped for almost as long as a stick of incense, and the three finally arrived at their destination.
As soon as I arrived, I was shocked by the horror of the scene.
This place is a village, and the broken limbs of villagers can be seen everywhere, including the bodies of several guards.
None of these corpses were complete, and they were full of blood and horror, and it was too horrible to look at.
A huge figure was frantically killing the villagers who were fleeing in all directions.
Wu Cheng deliberately wanted to step forward to stop him, but Wanda held him tightly.
"Master Wu, please don't. This wolf demon is extremely ferocious, so don't be impulsive. If you believe in the wolf smoke, the others are on their way, and I believe they will arrive soon. Then we can attack in groups and capture it in one fell swoop."
After hearing Wanda's advice, Wu Cheng clenched his fists and was so angry that his steel teeth almost shattered.
Immediately afterwards, guards continued to arrive from all around, and soon more than two hundred people gathered around Wucheng.
When everyone saw the wolf demon the size of a house, even the experienced dark guards swallowed unconsciously.
This was the first time they had seen a monster with their own eyes. The terrifying size, brutal methods, and ferocious appearance made them intimidated.
At this moment, Wu Cheng's voice came out.
"Soldiers, you are all good men who have experienced hundreds of battles. Killing enemies on the battlefield is commonplace. Today, this little brat who is causing harm to the people should be your warm-up."
"OK!"
"Okay! Okay! Okay!"
More than two hundred guards responded in unison, immediately attracting the wolf demon's attention.
"Ouch!"
It let out a roar and seemed a little excited as it rushed towards a group of people.
More than two hundred people had solemn expressions and were ready to go. Although they were scared inside, they did not flinch at all.
"kill!"
Wanda took the lead, letting out a roar and charging away with his sword.
"kill!"
Not to be outdone, the guards behind him all raised their swords and rushed over.
More than two hundred guards in uniform armor were fighting around the wolf demon. From a distance, it looked like a swarm of ants besieging a fly.
The difference is that the fly is the prey, but the wolf demon is the hunter at this time.
It was one against two hundred, but it was able to handle it with ease, not losing the slightest bit. With a wave of its sharp claws, the guards were blown away like fallen leaves.
Even though he was protected by armor, he was still seriously injured.
After several rounds, the wolf demon only suffered some minor injuries, while most of the guards had already been killed or injured.
"Girl, be careful, I'll go to help."
After Wu Cheng finished speaking, he raised his sword and charged away without waiting for the girl to reply.
Wu Cheng has been practicing martial arts and swords since he became an official. It has been more than ten years now, and his kung fu is naturally not bad.
I saw that he was extremely fast, his sword skills were domineering and brave, and he slashed the wolf demon several times in a row.
However, the wolf monster has rough skin and thick flesh, so it can only damage its fur, but not its roots.
However, the continuous pain also made the wolf demon a lot more embarrassed, and its movements seemed slightly sluggish.
Seeing this scene, the guards' morale increased greatly, and they fought more and more bravely regardless of their injuries.
Each of the eight guards took out a long rope and stood in eight different directions.
The ropes were thrown alternately and caught alternately. In an instant, a cage was formed to tie up the wolf demon.
The other guards quickly stepped forward to help. Four people held two ends of each rope, tying the wolf demon tightly in the middle.
Wanda raised the knife, swooped forward, and struck the wolf monster on the top of his head with the knife.
"Ding~"
With a crisp sound, the long knife broke into two pieces. Not only did this blow not hurt the wolf demon, but it completely angered it.
"Ouch!"
The wolf demon raised its head and howled, and the sound seemed to have a strange penetrating power.
Everyone who heard this sound felt that the howl went straight into the depths of their souls, shaking their hearts and making them dizzy.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the wolf demon violently broke free from the rope and waved its claws wildly, knocking dozens of people to the ground in the blink of an eye.
