In the early morning, it was just dawn.
In the misty forest, in the open space, smoke curls up.
"It's time to turn over, pull out two sticks of firewood, the fire is too big."
"Stop applying oil, aren't you tired of it?"
"Yes, brush it with honey first, wait for the honey to dry before adding seasoning, and then brush it with honey again... You can't eat it if it's too sweet? Then don't eat it."
Old God Lin Ji was lying on the recliner, half-opening his eyes as he looked at Lao Niuti's tiger legs that had slipped back.
From a distance, he smelled a strong fishy smell from the spices, and he lost all appetite.
It's not that the fishy smell cannot be solved, the main reason is that he is not hungry or greedy for the time being, and he is lazy.
Being able to take out his own secret seasoning is already giving him face.
Beside the fire, Lao Niu concentrated on executing Lin Ji's orders meticulously.
"Okay, it's almost done. These tiger legs are big enough. Remember to turn them over every quarter of an hour."
"I understand."
Lao Niu responded, put the tiger's legs on the fire, and then quickly came to Lin Ji's side.
"Well, there's something I wanted to tell you last night."
Lin Ji suddenly became interested when he saw Lao Niu looking around like a thief.
This idiot has always been reckless, what could have happened to make him act like this? This is nothing like it.
"tell me the story."
After finishing his words, seeing that Lao Niu was still hesitant to speak, Lin Ji waved his hand and an invisible barrier fell around them, preventing even a single sound from being transmitted.
"That's enough."
"Hey." Lao Niu sneered, "Don't blame me for being cautious. It's really a matter of great importance and we have to be on guard."
"Stop being so pretentious," Lin Ji urged.
Lao Niu nodded, moved closer with a mysterious look on his face, and whispered: "Did you know that the tiger demon I beat away last night, the one being roasted now, actually has a backstage. "
Lin Ji saw it's rare seriousness, and after thinking about it for a moment, he quickly stood up.
"A demon saint in the eighth realm?"
"Well, that's not the case. He is a demon king just like me." Lao Niu looked surprised, "Why do you think of demon saints? There are not many demon saints in the demon country now, and everyone is worshiped like their ancestors. ...No, they are the ancestors."
Lin Ji rolled his eyes and lay down again.
"Looking at your cautious appearance, I can't help but think about it."
"Huh, I'm not the one anymore." Lao Niu snorted softly and continued, "But even if you are not a demon saint, you can't underestimate him. The person behind this tiger demon is not a demon saint, but a late-stage demon king."
"Is there such a powerful demon master in Xuzhou?" Lin Ji raised his eyebrows slightly.
There are not many demon kings in Xuzhou. Most of them stay in various demon clans or find places to hide in deep mountains and old forests. They usually don't show up easily.
"Who told you that you are from Xuzhou?" Lao Niu said angrily, "Since I escaped from Yangzhou, I came to Xuzhou and settled in this misty forest. Who would have thought that the mandrill would come from suppressing demons?" Ta was out of trouble and came to Xuzhou. In this misty forest, he gave me a good beating."
"Drill?" Lin Ji narrowed his eyes slightly and looked a little more serious.
After thinking about it for a moment, he remembered the origin of the mandrill.
"A mandrill has a body with black flesh and wings, sword feathers on its ribs, a head like a swallow, and a long hairy tail." After a pause, Lin Ji continued, "Born to be raised by the earth, there will be disasters when you see it. The country is thousands of miles away, and no humans or animals are left. .”
"How do you know?" Lao Niu asked in surprise, "Have you seen it?"
"Most of the great demons born and raised in the world have records. They have been wreaking havoc in Kyushu for a long time, and they have been captured in the Demon Suppression Tower. How do you think I know about it?"
"After all, he is someone who has worked as a clerk in the Tiantian Division. There is a book of ghosts and strange things in the Tiantian Division. At least all kinds of ghosts and evil spirits that have appeared in the past thousands of years have basically been recorded."
While talking, Lin Ji recalled that when he first entered Jiantiansi, he still
I was praised for holding the classics and reading them all day long.
At that time, his boss only regarded him as diligent and studious.
Lin Ji was diligent and studious, but the main reason was to save his life, so as to prevent him from encountering strange things and not recognizing them, and dying in an unknown way.
Seeing that Lin Ji didn't speak anymore, Lao Niu continued: "The mandrill has already hidden in the sea. Thirty miles east of the misty forest is the sea... What I want to say is not these, it's me and that man After the mandrills finished their fight, the mandrills asked me to team up with them to do something big."
"What's the big deal?"
Lao Niu took a deep breath and tried to look serious.
"The mandrill has already contacted the demon country in the south. Several demon kings are coming to Xuzhou. They want to imitate what the demon country did in Yangzhou and flood Weicheng. This will serve as the demon country's extension of its hand into Xuzhou. The origin of Xuzhou."
Lin Ji's pupils narrowed.
"The Demon Kingdom has such a big appetite? Speaking of Yangzhou, how is Yangzhou doing now?"
"The major aristocratic families in Yangzhou could not withstand the invasion of the Demon Kingdom and the Sea Clan. In the end, several major sects in Kyushu took action, and aristocratic families from all over the country rushed to help, and finally drove the Demon Clan back... However, each force also suffered some damage. More importantly, What’s interesting is that the top leaders of the demon country saw the weakness of the human race and the sway of Kyushu, so they prepared to take a further step.”
Hearing this, Lin Ji thought for a moment and suddenly felt something was wrong. He raised his head and looked at Lao Niu.
"How do you know so clearly?"
"I am a monster."
"Don't you have a bad reputation in the Demon Kingdom?"
Upon hearing this, Lao Niu stood up suddenly and his eyes widened.
"Who said that? Who did you listen to? Did you see it?"
"That's not true."
"Don't talk nonsense if you haven't seen it. I am the demon king and a top-level existence in the demon country. Who dares to look down on me?" Lao Niu snorted coldly and sat on the ground again.
"After talking nonsense for a long time, let's get down to business. I want to join forces with you to kill the Mandrills and the others."
"Uh." Lin Ji felt speechless and choked for the first time in a long time.
Could this old cow not hear what he said?
You also said that you are not a witch!
"What do you mean, I didn't understand."
Little did the old cow know that Lin Ji secretly despised it in his heart. It said proudly: "That little shriveled mandrill hit me. I won't be able to sleep well unless I get revenge, but that's not important."
"The important thing is that the mandrill is full of treasures. Which demon elixir of muscles, bones, skin, flesh, and blood is not valuable? Especially the demon elixir. I have made an agreement with the people in Taiyi Pavilion. As long as the appearance is good enough and the aura is sufficient, it will cost three to five million yuan." They can also afford to crystallize a demon pill."
At this point, Lao Niu's eyes turned red, as if he had already obtained a huge sum of money.
"Speak more slowly. Lin is a little confused. He's got it all. Why are you involved with Taiyi Pavilion? Is it the Taiyi Pavilion controlled by Taiyi Sect?"
Lao Niu nodded and grinned, but as if he thought of something, his smile quickly faded.
"It's not like you, a bastard, tricked me into going to Penglai Island!"
