Master Yun Chu was enjoying his meal when he heard the voice of the waiter greeting the guests. He led a few people to the private room next door. Curved screens were used as walls to re-divide the indoor space, enhancing the independence of each space. It has a decorative and beautifying effect, but it does not soundproof.
Master Yun Chu heard the conversation of the people next to him word for word.
"Senior Brother, what should we do if the cat demon escapes this time?" A slightly cautious voice sounded.
Zhao Mingyu slapped his sword heavily on the round table, obviously with anger: "Damn it, I let that cat demon run away. How can I explain this to Master Su? You should have listened to me a long time ago, why did you act without authorization? If you listened to me , I’ve caught that cat demon a long time ago.”
Sun Hao hesitated for a moment, Zhao Mingyu snorted, and then slapped the round table hard.
Sun Hao shrank his head and tried to persuade him with kind words: "Elder brother, don't be angry. It's all because they collided too hard."
Sun Hao quickly poured a cup of hot tea for Zhao Mingyu: "Elder brother, please moisturize your throat first, don't get angry. This is Ya'an Luya that I had people prepare for you in advance. I heard that the Su family master drinks it all year round. This kind of tea.”
Zhao Mingyu glanced at him, reached out to take it, and took a sip.
This tea is brewed just right, the tea is fragrant, sweet and mellow, and it is indeed made with care.
Zhao Mingyu's anger subsided and his tone softened: "That's it, that's it. I'll think of other ways and let them rest first."
"Yes, yes," Sun Hao responded quickly.
"Eldest brother, eat food, eat food."
After a while, there was a loud noise, and the people downstairs suddenly started shouting, and people ran away like crazy.
Shouts and fighting sounds came and went.
Someone came up the stairs and barged in: "Elder brother, it's not good, the cat demon is here to kill you."
Zhao Mingyu jumped out immediately: "What, that cat demon dares to attack. Sun Hao, gather everyone, we must get rid of him tonight."
"Yes." Sun Hao agreed.
The three of them hurried out.
Master Yun Chu swallowed the pastry in one gulp and said, "Master Zisang, there is something big going on."
Zi Sangning glanced at her sideways and said nothing.
Master Yunchu boldly asked again: "It seems there are monsters. Master Zisang, won't you go out and eliminate the evil spirits for the people?"
Zi Sangning's eyes fell on her, and he said faintly: "If you send me out, are you planning to escape?"
Upon hearing this, Master Yun Chu quickly started laughing: "I have no magic power, how can I run away? I am doing this for your own good."
Zi Sangning smiled and said, "How do you say that?"
Master Yun Chu propped his chin up and said, "Celestial Master Zisang, this is an excellent opportunity for you to make meritorious deeds in your master's sect."
Zi Sangning glanced at her, nodded and said, "Okay, you wait for me here."
Master Yun Chu nodded like garlic, with a full smile on his face: "With Master Zisang's ability, you can capture the monster without even using a stick of incense."
She could finally escape.
She still doesn't believe that the world is so big and there are some strange poisons that she can't cure.
She lowered her head and swallowed the cake, trying to hide her expression.
Zi Sangning stepped out and said, "Don't worry, you can't run away either."
Master Yun Chu's expression froze and he hurried to the door, but was instantly bounced back.
Sure enough, as she expected, Zi Sangning's handwriting was pasted on the door lintel, and several talismans were shining brightly, which completely caught her eyes.
Master Yun Chu was so angry that he stamped his feet and cursed: "Zi Sangning, you are a villain, Master of Death. Curse his spells to fail and prevent him from catching that cat demon."
Master Yun Chu strode forward and sat down on the circle chair. She was so angry that her orifices were filled with smoke.
She sighed again silently, and turned her grief and anger into appetite, and continued to deal with the food on the round table.
Weapons clashed downstairs, and the fight was fierce.
All I could hear were tables, chairs and benches being knocked down, bowls and chopsticks falling to the ground, people falling to the ground, wailing sounds, and the sounds of those heavenly masters fighting and cursing.
The golden light soared into the sky, and the formation was powerful.
There was another burst of chaos and fighting.
After a long time, it finally stopped outside.
Master Yun Chu stood at the door and was listening intently. The door suddenly opened. She staggered and took a few steps back, almost losing her footing.
"Master Zisang, you are back." Master Yun Chu was startled.
"Yes." Zi Sangning nodded, raised his hand to remove the talisman, tilted his head, and motioned for her to go downstairs.
Looking at his expression, it seemed like he had caught the monster but not yet? Master Yun Chu stared at him suspiciously, but he didn't see the reason.
Master Yun Chu had no choice but to follow him and look around. After a battle, the inn was in a lot of ruins. The tables, chairs, bowls and chopsticks on the first floor were all broken into pieces, and the people inside were frightened.
The shopkeeper, waiter and others were all hiding in the dark, curling up as much as possible for fear of being discovered by others.
The waiter from the original shop poked his head out a little, and Master Yun Chu's eyes caught his. He quickly retracted his head, held his head with both hands, and tightened his body.
Is she that scary? I hide every time I see her.
"Eldest Brother, Eldest Brother..."
Looking around, I saw a man lying in the arms of another man. The dying man's head was dragged up, and the man was crying in front of him.
The dying man moved his lips and struggled to say something. The pain made his veins spasm, and blood flowed out of his mouth. After a period of convulsions and trembling, he could not say anything, and finally breathed his last.
"Big brother, big brother..." The man cried holding the corpse, tears streaming down his face.
The voices heard were the two people talking in the cubicle.
Behind the man was a group of people supporting each other. They were all wearing light blue robes and wearing soap boots. They should all be brothers from the same sect.
Their faces were stained with blood, their robes were stained with dust, and they were in a miserable state.
They also became sad: "Big brother, big brother..."
"We must kill that cat demon and avenge Senior Brother."
"Yes, I must avenge my senior brother."
Hatred, grief and indignation overwhelmed their senses. The group of them could no longer bear it any longer, and could no longer care about their injuries. They wanted to avenge their master's sect in the next moment.
Everyone looked at the man holding the body: "Second Senior Brother, we listen to you."
Upon seeing this, Master Yun Chu quietly approached Zi Sang Ning and whispered in his ear: "Master Zi Sang, has the monster escaped?"
Zi Sangning glanced sideways at her and nodded slightly.
Looking at the posture of the generals, the fighting must be very powerful, and they even killed some people.
It seems that the cat demons mentioned by those demon hunters are quite advanced.
"Brother Zisang." A gentle voice sounded, and Master Yun Chu noticed a young man standing at the top of the stairs.
The man wore an ivory white double-breasted narrow-sleeved gown. The placket and cuffs were embroidered with silver threads and piping with flowing cloud patterns. He wore a wide-brimmed white auspicious cloud belt around his waist, and his black hair was tied with a jade crown.
"Brother Huangfu." Zi Sangning returned the greeting.
"Who is this?" Huangfu Zhao looked at Master Yun Chu, who had been hiding behind Zi Sangning, with some doubts.
Master Yun Chu couldn't answer for a while. What was she going to say? She could only look at Zi Sang Ning pretending to be timid, and then quickly lowered her head.
Zi Sangning spoke: "This is my fellow junior sister who traveled down the mountain with me. She has always been a bit timid."
As soon as he finished speaking, Master Yun Chu stared at Zi Sangning with wide eyes. Zi Sangning did not look at her, but tapped his fingers on the other magic weapon around his waist.
Master Yun Chu could only put on a full smile.
Huangfu Zhao said with a hint of surprise: "Could it be that he is a closed disciple without abbot? I'm glad to meet you."
Zi Sangning nodded and said, "Junior sister, this is Mr. Huangfu Zhao from the Huangfu family, a family of demon hunters."
Under Zi Sang's non-smiling gaze, Master Yun Chu could only take a step forward, pretending to be timid and whispered: "I've met the young master, my little girl's name is Master Yun Chu, I'm glad to meet you."
Huangfu Zhao chuckled: "I have long heard that Abbot Wu Wu's disciple is extremely intelligent and enlightened, but I didn't expect that she is actually a girl."
"Hehe." Master Yun Chu smiled, pretending to be timid again and retreated behind Zi Sangning.
If looks could kill, Zi Sangning would have died eight hundred times.
Master Yun Chu could only think in his heart.
She's so useless.
"Everyone." Huangfu Zhao took a step forward: "Everyone, please be patient for a moment. The cat demon was injured and must not be able to run far. According to the cat demon's unyielding nature, it is unknown whether he will make a comeback. He is still lingering. Miss Su family, if he intends to retaliate, Miss Su family will be in great danger..."
"What do you think Mr. Huangfu has to say?" Sun Hao stood up and wiped away his tears.
Everyone's eyes fell on Huangfu Zhao.
Before Huangfu Zhao could speak, someone rushed in from outside.
The man heard his voice before he saw him, and he was already panting: "It's not good, Senior Brother, the cat demon has kidnapped the eldest lady of the Su family."
His words attracted everyone's attention.
The man didn't know that Zhao Mingyu was dead yet, so he rushed in and hurriedly looked for Zhao Mingyu.
"Second senior brother, where's the eldest brother?"
"Elder brother has been harmed by that cat demon." Sun Hao said sadly.
Li Xuan was shocked: "What? Senior brother..."
Sun Hao held his shoulders and interrupted him: "Li Xuan, what did you say? That cat demon kidnapped the eldest lady of the Su family?"
Li Xuan didn't have time to feel sad, so he nodded quickly and said with a sigh of relief: "The master of the Su family is very anxious, and specially asked the senior brother to come and discuss strategies to rescue the eldest lady."
"Okay, I understand." Sun Hao responded.
He turned around and said to everyone: "Juniors, our chance to avenge our senior brother has come."
Everyone also responded, wanting to avenge their senior brother.
Huangfu Zhao took a step forward and said, "Can I go with everyone? I would like to contribute my small contribution."
Sun Hao nodded, with a polite expression on his face: "I have long heard that Huangfu and his family are from a family of monster hunters. If I can get Mr. Huangfu's help, I would be very grateful."
Huangfu Zhao cupped his hands and said humbly: "Catching monsters is the responsibility and duty of our Huangfu family."
Master Yun Chu didn't want to listen to their polite greetings, so he could only look up at the sky and the ground.
Looking at the extent of the damage to the inn, Master Yun Chu estimated that the owner would have to spend a lot of money to repair it.
Master Yun Chu couldn't help but feel sad that it was a waste of money and people.
Huangfu Zhao held up his hands: "Brother Zisang, Miss Yun, I wonder if you two are willing to go with us to the Su Mansion to catch monsters?"
"It's an honor." Zi Sangning nodded: "If I can help you, it will be an honor for Zi Sang and my junior sister."
Zi Sangning looked at her and asked, "Junior sister, right?"
What is it? Master Yun Chu cursed in his heart.
If she, a goblin, stayed with a group of demon hunters, she would be like a piece of fish on a chopping block, ready to be slaughtered.
Didn't Zi Sangning hurt her whenever he wanted?
Master Yun Chu only felt a pain in the back of her neck. When she realized that it was Zi Sangning's hand patting her on the back of her neck, she had no choice but to nod her head and responded weakly: "Yeah, yeah, it's a great honor."
Master Yunchu once again admitted that she was unlucky. Did Qingsang County's lack of success last year lead to her bad luck? Did her fate be miserable?
Could it be that her doom is coming, and after this disaster she can become a fairy?
"Junior sister, let's go." Zi Sangning patted her head and brought her back from her thoughts.
Master Yun Chu had no choice but to follow closely.
Suddenly coming back to his senses, Sun Hao had already led everyone to the Su Mansion in a hurry.
The night was thick, and their figures were hidden in the foggy night.
After seeing the people leave, the group of diners huddled in the corner also disappeared in a flash, but no one wanted to stay in this eating place, only the shopkeeper and the waiter who were looking around were left. The few people left in the inn greeted the shopkeeper and the others to help them place the body. The pitiful shopkeeper and the waiter had never seen anyone die violently, so they had no choice but to tremble and go to help, not even daring to open their eyes. , only dare to narrow one's eyes.
A few ingots of silver were stuffed into the shopkeeper's arms, and a slightly younger monster hunter spoke up: "Shopkeeper, could you please hire a few errands to go to the shop to build a good coffin? I'd like to trouble you, shopkeeper."
The shopkeeper bowed and said, "Don't you dare, I'll take someone there right away."
"Thank you very much."
The shopkeeper was very upset and worried that the business of the inn would be difficult in the future, but he didn't dare to refuse, and he didn't have time to care about the situation in the inn, so he hurried to Jisi with a few people in person.
After a period of hurried steps, the whole world seemed to have stopped, except for the sound of the breeze blowing through the treetops and the chirping of crickets in the distance.
